Why not an Eberron movie? Same deal, just with a specific setting.

Yarrun XIX · 2015-08-06 00:32:09

Dungeons, Dungeons, Dungeons with extra Dill Pickle

Evidently it's Forgotten Realms.

I also don't think Forgotten Realms is cool.

Tachyon · 2015-08-06 02:28:04

idk Forgotten Realms

what's so bad about it?

Odradek · 2015-08-06 02:30:12

It's just really boring and overplayed and the home of the lamest Original Characters Do Not Steal running around in D&D.

I wasn't expecting Spelljammer or Dark Sun, but still.

plus it has the star wars extended universe issue where there is so much worldbuilding happening that you cant adventure for 5 minutes without bumping into already covered shit

The first time I heard the name "Spelljammer" I thought it had to do with some sort of anti-magic field or similar thing that caused spells to fizzle or spellcasters to lose concentration.

Spelljammer is the one where giant magical ships trawl through the multiverse.

One-Winged Eagle · 2015-08-06 02:57:20

Eberron is far safer and more grounded than Spelljammer or Dark Sun.

Well, kind of. It's called that because the equivalent of the warp engine in that setting is a throne which drains all of a wizard's stored magic immediately upon sitting on it, and uses it to power space flight.

The options are

Greyhawk: No one cares about the exact layout of this one so it's more open to whatever

Forgotten Realms: See above

Ravenloft: Gothic horror

Eberron: Magicpunk with a Golem Rights Movement and the afterfall of Magic WWI

Dark Sun: Mad Max: Dungeon Road

Spelljammer: SPAAAACE

Planescape:

Okay, that's perfect

Sorry, this is the best ever

Haven · 2015-08-06 06:12:03

I meant "that's a perfect description"

If I was going for "that's the best ever" I would have picked Spellscape or Planejammer

Y'all forgot to acknowledge which studio was planning on making this film

*puts on ABC Warner shades*
