Merging with another article?
[edit]This article should be merged with: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeons_and_Dragons:_Wrath_of_the_Dragon_God
But I'm unsure of which title would be preferred. Any suggestions? Besides burning both movies, which sadly, we can't do. FrozenPurpleCube 03:42, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- I looked around a little, and saw that both Warner Bros (the studio behind this one) and IMDb listed it as D&D: WotDG, while the home page of this title at the Sci-fi Channel was D&D2: WotDG. But that could be just a fancy title text, and a mistake by the designer/webmaster, or simply to highlight that it's the sequel. I'd rather bet on the Warner Bros and IMDb pages, but because it still conflicts with Sci-fi Channels's and I'm not 100% sure, and Dungeons and Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God isn't linked to by anything on Wikipedia, and this one at least a bunch of articles, I may just merge that one for now with this until that's sorted out if anyone cares. :-) -- Jugalator 03:49, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
For info, the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeons_and_Dragons:_Wrath_of_the_Dragon_God does not exist anymore as a single article, and leads now to the article of this discussion. Paercebal 08:56, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Article is partial?
[edit]"Gamers will also be happy to see that the spells are not cast at will" - Oh will I now? I didn't think it was Wikipedia's purpose to tell me how I WILL react to something, just to tell me that the thing exists. --Charax 22:30, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. avid gamer? an aggressive white dragon? dead drow? Special mention must be given to Klaxx the Malign? Why is this article enumerating background, useless, unrealistic (even in a fantasy setting) and/or senseless facts. Let's see my own fresh account of the unforgettable scene with the mighty Klaxx :
There is a forest that is a necropolis where a bored but ecology-aware lich liking to climb down trees likes to wait for adventurers to play stupid pranks on them. Hopefully, the eyefull lich (liches are supposed to have bright red pinpoint in their empty sockets, not eyes) is bored and despite appearing quite young (an healthy zombie more than a mommified corpse, I'd say, but my necrology skills could fail me on this one), is out of shape enough to let a party of middle level adventurer flee on a river raft......
WTF?...
I guess the article IS TERRIBLY biased toward the movie. It should perhaps be written in a more neutral way. Paercebal 09:28, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Spoiler info, wrong?
[edit]I just saw the movie and came lookign for any information I might of missed during its presentation. The spoiler stats that Damodar escaped from the Nine Hells of Baator but I dont recollect seeying him in hell.
Black dragon
[edit]I chopped this as it is obviously written by two different people and reads like a forum discussion. Can the two arguments be synthesised and re-included?
- Despite this, there were a few changes that conflicted with the D&D game. Among these are the black dragon's depiction. In the game, black dragons are a subtype of dragon that are associated with water and evil, they live in marshes made poisonous by their corrupt water spell-like ability, and their breath is acidic. In the movie, the black dragon breathes fire and is never shown anywhere near a swamp. Though in the beginning it is seen breathing acidic poisonous gas, and is entombed in a mountain. It is not a normal black dragon, but a dragon god, and therefore is probably equipped with several types of breath weapons like the regular metallic dragons.

Search for better image
[edit]I wonder if a better screenshot could be found to illustrate this artice. The one we have is rather grainy. --Agamemnon2 16:26, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Falazure vs. Faluzure
[edit]I fixed the link, but the source article "Faluzure" is wrong. It should be "Falazure". Web Warlock 23:02, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
Infobox
[edit]The IMDB article lists twelve producers. Should all of them be added to the infobox? If not, which ones should be? MRProgrammer 20:28, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Fan Service section
[edit]We could get into a little more detail here regarding characters, races and action being true to the game. The first movie had virtually no similarity to the game. In this movie, you really get to see the individual professions and how they work together to neutralize threats and solve puzzles. The rogue for example doesn't just pick locks. He also finds hidden doors and defuses traps. The barbarian seems bigger and more aggressive than the fighter, who is more versatile. The paladin seems to recklessly face the dragon because he doesn't like stealth. The wizard can't simply teleport them to their destination because she hasn't 'discovered' it yet.

characters
[edit]How can the characters be under level 10; one of them has teleport! Characters under level 10 against liches just die; no argument, just die. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.192.236.174 (talk) 00:11, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- A stat sheet is shown several of the characters in one of the special features. The wizardess is a level 9 Conjurer - the lowest level character in 3.5 rules that could cast teleport twice. Schoop (talk) 16:46, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
- Melora cast Vision early in the movie, to be able to cast a spell at caster level seven, she had to have been at least level fourteen. So there's definitely an inconsistancy there unless Obad-Hai is a divination god that grants vision as a domain spell, but that would surely leave her vastly underpowered also, at the very least, she would be looking at a caster level check of twenty were it in a pen and paper game, very possibly twenty five or thirty depending on the nature of what she wanted to know. yes, I know it's a movie, there's plot, my DM's have fudged rolls (for the palyers' or their own benefit) to fit the plot, but if a movie attempts to stay close to the game, that's a pretty large swerve away in that respect.
Alternate name?
[edit]It appears that in at least some markets this was titled Dungeons & Dragons - The Elemental Might. On http://www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/785648 the cover looks the same except for the name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.172.112.198 (talk) 12:58, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- IMDB says that was the title in Australia, Philippines, Bulgaria, and Germany. I added it to this article. - 2603:9000:E408:4800:755C:1519:EDB1:B229 (talk) 05:32, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
Official title
[edit]The official title doesn't include any number, it's not Dungeons & Dragons 2: Wrath of the Dragon God, it's Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God. Please consult the internet movie data base: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0406728/ S! Kintaro-san (talk) 11:28, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Newcomers?
[edit]"...a cast of relatively [sic] newcomers" - pfft, it's got Roy Marsden in it! --Snograt talk here 01:49, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
