Alright so I just want everyone to know I saw the new DnD movie last night and it SLAPPED
It was so funny, the characters were well written, and it had some beautiful practical effects. I know enough about DnD to understand some of the in-jokes and nuances, but background info isn't necessary to enjoy it. Also the costumes and set design were gorgeous.
I went in expected some Marvel overly CGI'd quipfest but was so pleasantly blown away by an absolute masterpiece. It was so FUN!
I cannot recommend this movie enough, especially if you enjoy DnD or just like watching actors having so much fun. 10000/10

the webcomic can have one (1) funny "earnest moment interrupted by comedy" joke. as a treat. but also because it is so in character for them ajkshdjkas
yes they will say the most earnest shit to each other and then immediately try to cringe out of their own bodies. they are best friends but they would rather jump out of a window before admitting it. they are incredibly devoted and grateful to one another but you could not water board that out of either of them.
the only thing that can get either of them to admit how much they care for each other is if the other is in life threatening danger and not a second before aakjshdks

I haven't seen anyone talk about Charles' little blink-and-you'll-miss-it line in episode 8 where he is visibly disturbed by Jenny being "Forced to sing a Belinda Carlisle song" while she's possessed by David the Demon. He laments this offense in the same sentence where he's talking about the horrors of possession. He visibly cringes, shivers even, when he makes the statement...as if he sees them as equally jarring offenses. Sure, being possessed is a lot, but she had to sing a pop song on top of that? The horror! Comedy gold.
That's not all though!! This little piece of dialogue not only serves as a fantastic and subtle bit of consistent characterization for Charles (ofc as an eternal 16 year old self-proclaimed "rude boy" with a love of ska and punk he would be averse to any overplayed pop artist during his lifetime) but it's also a bit meta. Why? Because Belinda Carlisle is undoubtedly best known for her 1987 hit single "Heaven Is A Place On Earth." You know, the song with lines such as:
I don't think elaboration is necessary; you guys get what I'm laying down here. Hilarious.
It's a teeny-tiny detail, but I was just absolutely tickled by it and thought I'd share. The writing in this show fills me with unbridled joy that I can hardly contain - nothing feels unintentional and I need 50 more seasons.

Oh! Did you know! Iyami’s zansu originated as a form of speech associated with women! More specifically, an archaic, shortened form of de gozaimasu, associated with the madams of old-timey high class adult entertainment businesses. This, like most of Iyami’s speech quirks, comes directly from Tony Tani, one of the comedians Akatsuka took inspiration from when creating him. Tony Tani’s influence is VERY visible on Iyami, from his flamboyant stage persona, his tendency to sprinkle English words in his speech (he introduced himself as “number one handsome boy” in English, for example) to his signature pencil mustache! In fact, Iyami’s voice in the 80s adaptation of the Osomatsu-kun anime is a VERY spot on Tony Tani impression by Kaneta Kimotsuki! Just listen to one after the other:

After 20 minutes of nonstop snow-facts, Noelle could see Kris (and apparently the snowshovel) starting to freeze into a giant ice-cube. Quickly bringing them inside, she remedies their frozen state.
"Here, this should make you feel better, Kris."
* Noelle hands them the hot chocolates *
As they are blissfully enjoying the best hot-cocoa in all of hometown, Noelle begins to realize the worst...
" They weren't even listening to my wonderful, well-thought-out, well-executed, awe-inspiring, speech!!! "
Noelle, somewhat defeated and mad, sits trying to make best of the situation, knowing that she might have failed to teach Kris (and that snow-shovel) the joy of the Christmas season...
But, she knows that this isn't the last of it; rather, it is just the beginning... In a new perspective, she realized that she had Kris drinking hot-cocoa in December! Yes! That's it! She then remembers the quote by Sun Tzu,
"Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win."
She has won. Now, it is time for war...!
Kris and the snow shovel began to look at Noelle confused and concerned, because, for the past 4 minutes, she had been monologuing her plans...out-loud...
Noelle froze like a deer looking into headlights. Her face turned redder than a lobster in a sauna, as if embarrassment had just RSVP'd to the party on her cheeks.
