This movie is total BULL!!! *rant*
When I first saw this movie my satellite's "Info" thing said it was about "a group of teens enter a fantasy world, etc." or something. And I was thinking "Wow, I didn't know there was a movie like the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon where a bunch of kids get tossed through a portal into a fantasy game-like dimension!" Instead we have some guy played by Tom Hanks (whose only movies I hate are this one and Philledelphia) who becomes a schizoid near the end of the movie and thinks he's the character he really plays. This movie is nothing more than mixed stereotypes and false controversy plus stupid superstition. I myself am an avid role-player (and I didn't become a born-again Christian for nothing you know). I believe TSR (now owned by Wizards of the Coast) should have sued do to bad publicity. And another thing, overprotective parents and "Fire-and-Brimstoners" should go after worse things such as Ouji Boards, Ecstasy-raves, subliminal messages, and Teletubbies; instead of trying to give D&D, The Real Ghostbusters, Charles Darwin, Pokemon, and Harry Potter a bad name.
