D&D Honor Among Thieves is Great, but the Weapons are BS! 😆
Remember the laughable disaster that was the first Dungeons & Dragons movie (2000) I had fairly low expectations, but Honor Among Thieves (2023) turned out to be shockingly good. The writing, acting, and effects know to impress, so I can’t complain. Or can I...? 😏
Not complain, no. But over-think and nitpick some of the weapons, that I sure can. Like a certain paladin’s daggersword, which would be more fragile than a $50 wallhanger in real life.
But, but... MAGIC THO! Well, as Simon the sorcerer says, “I hate how everyone thinks that you can solve any problem with magic“. It’s fair game then!
So yeah, as usual I’ll be over-analyzing stuff for your entertainment (and some education). Aside from Xenk Yendar’s sword we’ll also be looking at Doric’s wrist-mounted slingshot, and Holga’s molten axe with extendable handle. Also a quick jab at the hilarious tri-blade launching monstrosity from The Sword and the Sorcerer (1982).
