The original Dungeons & Dragons animated series characters react to their live-action Honor Among Thieves movie counterparts in a funny new video.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves' cameo from the original animated characters has been commented on by the characters themselves. The film, which was released last weekend, is the latest live-action outing inspired by the classic role-playing tabletop fantasy game, following a trilogy of films in the early 2000s.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT This week, Paramount Pictures shared a new promotional video featuring the original cartoon characters reacting to their Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves cameo. The video features all the classic main characters including Hank the Ranger, Presto the Magician, Diana the Acrobat, Sheila the Thief, Bobby the Barbarian, and Uni the Unicorn. In typical Honor Among Thieves sarcastic fashion, they have some choice words about the way that they are portrayed onscreen.
Honor Among Thieves Is Truer To The Game Than The Animated Series Although they couldn't resist throwing in this nod to the original animated series, the makers of Honor Among Thieves had no choice but to change their look somewhat when translating them into this new live-action universe. For one thing, the original cartoon series was less devoted to the actual dynamics and classes of the game, as evidenced by the characters' names.
However, that doesn't mean that Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is alienating to viewers unfamiliar with the games. The film carefully straddles the line of fan service, welcoming newcomers with an engaging story and seeking to delight fans of the game by packing the characters and their environments with plenty of Easter eggs. This cameo proves that their devotion to the games never got in the way of having fun with the project.
