Goofs

Various animated errors appear all over this movie. At one point a character seems to have three legs, another a character's hair is white instead of brown. Some chairs have no color to them and seem invisible.

Quotes

Tasslehoff Burrfoot: Hey! She cast that spell without using those funny words! Why can't you do that, all powerful mage?
Raistlin Majere: She's channeling the power of a god, you dolt. I'm wresting arcane energies from the very fabric of the universe - it's completely different.

User Reviews

It's just horrible

It's the worst (animated or not) movie I watched. It's actually almost unwatchable. I love the books, but the movie is like... I don't know... abomination. The animations, both 2D and 3D are awful, the story is told like on fast forward and all the funny moments are cut off. Characters are without any life - for example Tas is not funny. Voices are recorded without any care and sound like there was no mastering, no reverb, nothing. Only the music is SOMETIMES good - but most of the time it's just strings playing some simple chords. All the animations look like drawn by a child, the backgrounds are showed from such close that they are horrible (trees look like violet brush strokes). This movie is just plain awful, awful, awful. Don't watch it. I would have voted -5 if it was possible.
