I was wondering if anyone have seen the Dungeons and Dragons movie, also Final Fantasy the Movie. Is it worth it ? I understand from the trailers they're computer generated movies.

The DnD movie has real "actors" (and I use the term in its loosest sense), it's not entirely computer-generated butI think the dragons probably are. It's also one of the worst films I have seen in recent memory. Really. It's terrible...

Final Fantasy, on the other hand, is entirely computer-generated. And it hasn't been released yet.

THNX Georgous I've seen the FF "The Spirit Within" trailer - it looks cool. I hope they've got better animation than Max Steel or Star Ship Trooper animated series.

the preveiws at the theater looked cool for final fantasy. i went and saw the fast and the furious. two thumbs up!

BTW Gerogi Jeremy Irons is a truly fantastic actor, he may have lost it recently but if anyone remembers his work with Cronenberg i am sure they would agree with me.

Final Fantasy is a movie I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. The CGI is absolutely incredible and if Squaresoft continues its tradition of quality, it should have a fascinating plot and an excellent musical score as well. Keeping my fingers crossed...

@Mr Sleep I am actually a fan of Jeremy Irons, but in DnD he hideously overacts (the appaling script probably didn't help)... Thora Birch is also a credible actress, as you'll know if you've seen American Beauty. They are the best of a bad bunch

I haven't seen the trailers for Final Fantasy (it isn't out here till August, although I believe it opens very soon in the US?) but the still pics I've seen look pretty damn good.

THora Birch can be a little pretentious in interviews But has anyone seen Haley Joel Olsmet, i so want to kill that kid

I haven't seen Thora Birch in interview. Her character in the DnD movie is practically a carbon copy of the Childlike Empress from Neverending Story though

I thought Haley Joe Osment was one of the less annoying child stars I've seen...

@Weasel thanks, but I have problems viewing trailers on my PC for some reason... plus I don't think I actually have any software to view them with since my hard drive died

OMG! Did Jeremy Irons actually star in D&D!!!! I did not know this, but I've heard over and over what an awfull movie it is. Jeremy Irons usually acts in good movies....what happened?

And lets face it DW you fancy the pants off him Who knows it has been a while since he starred in any movies maybe he felt like a change of direction (ergo needed money for cocaine/women/gambling addiction )

Ah, Jeremy Irons, one of the top British evil actors (why are villains always British? even if they have other accents, they're played by British actors! Why?) Yes, DW, I'm afraid it's true... so if you value your image of Jeremy as a good actor... you won't see the DnD movie.

The only American i can think of that comes close to j. irons is the fantastic James Spader, but his career has gone down hill somewhat recently

And lets face it DW you fancy the pants off him

Er...how did you know?

Has anyone seen him in the Lolita remake? What an an amazing film! IMHO anyway.

I preffered the orignial. There was just something more beleivable in the original the claustraphobia of their relationship really eats at you.

Damn i can't remeber the name of the actor in the original all i can think of is Caplin.
