Re: Happy Easter
In reply to GM (msg # 335):
I got to see it last Thursday. Cyndi's cousins from South Jersey were visiting and that gave me a break to get out of the house for a few hours. Overall, I liked the movie. It had a good balance of action and humor; the cast was enjoyable; and it was a real treat to see classic monsters on the big screen. My quibbles with it were that the dragonborn, aarokoacra, and tabaxi were poorly done while Bradley Cooper's halfling cameo fell flat with poor effects. LOTR set a high bar for forced perspective scenes and the movie failed to live up to that. The climatic maze arena was great but, jump into a G-Cube to avoid a displacer beast? Why not have the party pull a clever stunt to trick the displacer into the G-Cube? Loved the party's battle with Sofina at the end; it was up there with the best Marvel climatic battles.
