87. Dungeons & Dragons Double Feature! w/Andy Groth & Grant Leitbrouck

Kalid and Joe discuss the vastly different films that happen to fall under the same brand: the 2000 film, Dungeons & Dragons, and the 2023 update, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Joined by two friends and Dungeon Masters, Andy Groth and Grant Leitbrouck, the crew compare and contrast the two films and chat about how well each one captures the spirit of the game.
