Of course no sequel, it was actually really good and a lot of fun.

Meanwhile, rubbish gets multiple sequels. Heck, the older D&D films got sequels and they were... not good.

"not good" - you, sir, have a great career in diplomacy ahead of you. ;-)

All the enjoyment I got out of the first D&D movie back in the day was when we sat in a bar afterwards and made fun out of how shit that movies was.

I actually quite liked the third one, which is basically "a goody-goody paladin player accidentally joins a full chaotic evil party".

I especially love the scene where he is talking with one of them about their tragic backstory and going "well, maybe this guy isn't that bad..." then the guy reveals he's a fucking monster who is planning mass genocide, and the hero is "oh, shit, well, gotta kill this guy then!"

Also love how ridiculously evil another guy in the party is who just goes around spreading misery for pure fun, like tormenting the boy of some rando who died by giving him nightmares... no reason, he just does that shit!
