Multiple planes made into Dungeons and Dragons movies? This is how you get connected universes and multiverses. Do you want more connected universes and multiverses?

Those same dudes were in several action movies, like the 1992 masterpiece Double Trouble. I can’t find a trailer for some reason, but the entire movie is up on YouTube. Not sure if it’s allowed to link it though. They’re legitimately fun movies though. They’re very clearly having fun making them and they’re not taking it seriously at all, and it’s as if someone cloned Chris Farley and forced them both to become very dumb SoCal bodybuilders. Each take it seems like they’re both right on the edge of breaking and laughing. Their hair, their mannerisms, the way they keep putting these enormous dudes in ridiculous 90s suits and fashion, something about it is just inherently funny.

Double Trouble is the one I was thinking of but I remembered them having blonde hair for some reason. Also, what the gently caress is that cast?

He acts like a kid but not THE kid in the film. Billy Batson is a scrappy, jaded cynical kid who’s broken up about being lost, he’s not goofy sand silly.

He also gets the Courage of Achilles so that probably helps

Kind of an interesting thing is that the transformation gives Billy a chance to be a kid more than being an actual kid does. He finally has something going on in his life that distracts him from his abandonment, and he takes a genuine interest and has fun with it. I did love the whole montage where Billy and Freddy are using the scientific method to figure out how his powers work and practice with them. It's pretty traditional for a superhero to start out unaware of their full abilities and being comically clumsy wand unable to control their powers, and there's a few ways to play with that which can work very well, but it is fun to see it done that way- both having fun with it and showing genuine interest in learning and trying new things.

I’d rather they tell stories set in those environments than rehash LOTR or something. Tell new stories. I do want to see epic battles like against Ancaligon that giant rear end dragon and balrogs tho

They need to make it exciting for today's youth! No more being coy and calling it "pipeweed" or "Old Tobey," or whatever, just straight up show Gandalf and Bilbo hitting fat blunts Explicit romance between Gimli and Legolas Gollum's one of those sad yandere anime waifus now Sauron is played by Jared Leto The Orcs are now those football hooligan Warhammer 40K Orks Frodo says "gently caress"
