I once made a good roll and my character threw a goat at a kobold. Halflings +1 to throwing.
My DM started to calculate the damage, gave up and just said the kobold died. Then we figured out goats had more hp than kobolds and had a goat in the party…til the end of the campaign lol. It’s was out goat of holding.
That movie was exactly like a DnD session, even including the OP NPC that the DM introduces to finally advance the plot because the players are all acting like bumbling idiots.
I absolutely loved the movie and I think it’s one of the best game adaptations ever.
The number of bodies dead or otherwise that get shoved into bags of holding…

It’s not a gaming session untill someone quotes Monty Python
I remember once my players spent like 15 minutes discussing how to get across a 10 foot long puddle of water in a cave.
Eventually I had to remind them that 10’ isn’t that far, and you can RAW jump your strength score in feet with a running start. They didn’t need to build a bridge or cut into the walls. They could also just go into the water, but I understand not wanting to submerge yourself in cave water when you don’t know what’s down there.
My friends and I once came across what was clearly a pit of spikes (in hindsight), and instead of going over them…proceeded to climb down into the pit of spikes, navigate through them, and climb up the other side. The DM said nothing and just let it happen. Me and the rogue were probably both a little intoxicated (I definitely was). If the barbarian knew, she also didn’t say anything.
HarmonQuest.
I was told about a session where a character was trapped in a room with a bunch of enemies right outside the door. He told the DM he wanted to open the door and cast fireball. The DM asked if he really wanted to do that and warned it might not be a good idea, but he insisted. So the DM said the resulting explosion killed the enemies and the character’s head went rolling down the hall. Always read your spell descriptions!
“Hey, look out down there cause I gotta pee”
My problem was that the characters are generally unlikable and unfunny, except the barbarian lady, she was the only good part of that movie.
The new D&D movie is super good, but the first one from 2000 still has one of my favorite quotes.
“I want to get myself a nice Dwarven woman, with a beard you can just hang onto!”
