Welcome to THAC0 . . . with Advantage! We’re all friends that have been playing D&D a long time. While we all love lots of other RPGs, D&D is a mass media property that hooks us in even when we aren’t gaming.
We’re talking about the D&D Movie: Honor Among Thieves. That’s its. Full Stop. Strap in. Let’s go.
If you just want the D&D movie stuff head to 32:11 in the Podcast
While the kids from the 1980s D&D cartoon didn’t originally go to the Forgotten Realms (the cartoon debuted 4 years before the first Forgotten Realms boxed set was published), the kids have been portrayed as living out their D&D fantasy in Faerun in various media. In 1996 TSR published a Forgotten Realms: The Grand Tour comic book which featured Presto trying to apprentice himself to Elminster. Baldur’s Gate II contains a brief reference to Hank and Bobby being eaten by Tiamat. I guess the kids learned about resurrection spells before this movie came out.
