Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has hit the movie theaters like a magic missile. The Chris Pine fantasy film finds four found family members fighting for their lives, their love, and a bit of gold to share between them. But amongst the Red Wizards and dastardly deeds are easter eggs and references galore. And unless we have some very gifted chronomancies in the audience, it would take a nat 20 to catch them all. By the powers of the Late Great Gary Gygax, we’ve compiled some of the trickier ones to catch for you here. Grab your bag of holding a shovel because we’ve got way more than five things to answer. Why does Doric turn into an Owl bear? Because she has more than just wild shape up her sleeves. We will explain what Holga’s tattoos are for. References to Critical Roll and the old 80’s cartoon. Alongside deep lore cuts like Elminster and a rather unpleasant Litch. And what was that big ball of furry in the Underdark? All will be revealed and more. Roll for initiative because it’s time to discuss some things you missed in Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Amongst Thieves .

    One of the better movies I’ve seen in a while. I don’t even play D&D but you can tell they included a lot of high roll and low roll moments
  • @AllDayDavis
    If you missed Bradley Cooper you had to have left the theater for that whole scene because he is very clearly Bradley Cooper in teeny form lol
  • @medleystudios72
    I'm pretty sure most people did not miss Bradley Cooper's cameo. I mean, his face wasn't altered at all. And he's not exactly an obsure actor.
  • @kingtaco258
    I can't wait to see what they are going to do with this franchise. If done right and stays consistent, it can be done even better MCU.
  • @BuddyRIP
    2:52 when watching the movie, after holga saw her ex he started singing and she cheered up i was like thats 100% bardic inspiration
  • @JediJunkie247
    I never played the game before, but I thoroughly loved the movie.
  • @Katarn84
    Jokes on you. The Iron Throne was in Baldur's Gate, not Neverwinter. I used to pillage it when I played the homonymous game in the '90s.
  • @Iamdirty_2023
    I was excited to see the D&D cartoon characters that had uh cameo in it I was hoping they had uh end post credit scene & they need to make a spin off movie about them as well
  • @anthrojim
    It's a bit of a stretch saying that Neverwinter ripped off the design of King's Landing... Neverwinter campaign and GoT series were released withing months of each other.

    If we wanna go full on "well technically" mode, the displacer beast seems to be making the illusions be more then 3 feet away. And the movie makes it seem like he's projecting the image using the tentacles, while the tentacles are just an attack method, the bend light is something covering his entire skin.
  • @odinulveson9101
    Great analysis, you know your stuff! Glad you mention the other races too like the Silver Dragonborn ( dragonborns IS my favs AND underrated, Fizban book made them better so go pick one of 5 per Chromatic, Gem or Metallic when playing D&D ). You know its a silver because its based on the neuanced Dragonborn from Fizbans treasury of Dragon source book. Not the player handbook stamdard sub race which is more metallic/ chromatic blend. Again alot of great tidbits...Except 1!!⚠️.. Simon didnt cast magic missile! That spell NEVER miss. Think someone said it was magical/ frost daggers. Something along those lines
  • @chosenuwu
    she definitely also wild shaped too much xD
  • @Jedrakrenz
    Elminster hadn't passed away and Bradley Cooper is credited at the end...
  • @KalSpiro
    There is no such Spell School as Chronomancy. Time Stop is a Transmutation Spell
  • @emoharalampiev1590
    lol how is it a hidden detail that Bradly Cooper had a role. It's not some background character with one line, he had a full scene where he was the focus.
  • @SoraKirin
    They finally had a black dragon with the correct breath weapon it only took them 18 years
  • @thecunninlynguist
    I missed a lot, I'm a pretty passive/casual DnD fan. My friend who I saw it with pointed out some of the little easter eggs
