Full Moon StorytellingHonor Among Thieves coming to Netflix USADungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves didn’t make its expected money in the box office. It barely topped $200 million with Hasbro taking an <a href="https://investor.hasbro.com/news-releases/news-release-details/hasbro-reports-second-quarter-2023-financial-results" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">impairment charge of $25 million</a> (that’s not necessarily a loss, but a lack of hitting the expected revenue) in Q2 2023. That was the release quarter of the film.But, it’s <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dungeons_and_dragons_honor_among_thieves" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">highly rated</a>, <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/08/20/why-am-i-so-concerned-with-the-popularity-of-dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">exploded the interest in D&D</a> and has been a streaming stalwart on Paramount+ and Netflix in international markets. In fact, last year it was top 15 for Paramount’s now-profitable streaming service and top 25 for Netflix, while not being available in the United States — until later this month.D&D: Honor Among Thieves will be <a href="https://movieweb.com/dungeons-and-dragons-honor-among-thieves-on-netflix-february/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">available in the USA on Netflix starting Feb. 26</a>.If, like me, you want another film or even a series, Honor Among Thieves doing well on Netflix is vital. The D&D documentary and various series projects are stuck — the doc was originally announced for a 50th anniversary release while the only pre-production series was dumped by Paramount. The <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/12/13/baldurs-gate-3-is-the-next-dd-tv-show-in-development-maybe/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">supposed Baldur’s Gate 3 x Netflix project</a> hasn’t gone from rumor to announcement yet.There’s a chance that Netflix wants to see if Honor Among Thieves does well in the US as a kind of trial balloon to see if they should pick up the pre-production Rawson Marshall Thurber D&D series <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/05/dungeons-amp-dragons-live-action-series-dead-paramount-plus-hasbro-1235945078/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">that’s currently being shopped</a>.<a href="https://www.netflix.com/tudum/articles/magic-the-gathering-animated-series-news-release-date-photo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Netflix has a Magic: The Gathering series coming</a>, which is different from the just announced Legendary MtG movie and series. Hasbro’s current movie/series rights philosophy is to not bond with a single production company nor a single a platform, but to spread their various properties to the highest bidder — they are also reducing their own investments, withdrawing from the costs of production nearly totally.There is one concern to have about Honor Among Thieves being able to succeed on Netflix. Currently the most similar series and movies aren’t good.That should change rapidly once the algorithm starts seeing who is watching the movie. And yes, these suggestions are individual, but as someone who has rewatched several D&D adjacent projects on Netflix I would expect to see Shadow & Bone, Merlin, BBC’s Robin Hood and several other witchy series. Instead, there’s these selections.Top photo is from the <a href="https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/tg/thieves-gallery#UnusualAttacksandMagic" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Thieves Gallery,</a> the NPC stat blocks for the main characters in the film, which all include damage boosts similar to the 2025 Monster Manual.<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dnd/" target="_blank">#DnD</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragons</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons-movie/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragonsMovie</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/netflix/" target="_blank">#Netflix</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/paramount-2/" target="_blank">#Paramount_</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/prime-video/" target="_blank">#PrimeVideo</a>

Full Moon StorytellingEvery year I publish a look back at my favorite writing, podcast and video appearances for the year. This helps me remember what I’ve done, re-up things to people who discovered me late in the year and when attempting to freelance gives me a handy spot to find work to share with editors and other hiring managers.Dungeons & DragonsThe most popular story in the history of Full Moon Storytelling is no longer about sports. My essay on <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/02/07/using-third-places-to-add-cultural-depth-to-your-dd-campaign-or-character/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">how to use third places to amplify verisimilitude</a> surpassed the sports and cultures essay and then lapped it, twice in just a year. This helped boost Full Moon Storytelling to have 74% more views than last year and in 2023 it had more total views and visitors than the total of either from its founding in 2014 to 2022. <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/@fullmoonstorytelling.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Federating via WordPress</a> helped contribute to that growth as well.D&D: Honor Among Thieves had an interesting release. Opening week was fine, but not great. The falloff was significant, and yet there are many reasons to think that there will be a sequel. It was a massive success when it came to marketing D&D and is one of the most streamed movies of 2023. <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/08/20/why-am-i-so-concerned-with-the-popularity-of-dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">My fascination with the mainstreaming of the hobby by Hollywood is one of my favorite writings</a>.I’m probably not going to do a full post on Honor Among Thieves overall streaming success.

Full Moon StorytellingWhile chatting about Wish, Chris Pine suggested that Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves 2 is possibly/maybe going to happen. It wasn’t a strong statement, but it’s also the strongest since the co-writer/director duo were talking before the writers and actors strikes.<blockquote>“I’ve heard some rumors about it,” he tells us of a potential follow-up. “But I don’t know anything yet. But I feel pretty confident that it may happen.” When we ask if he’d be happy to return, Pine responds: “Absolutely.” <a href="https://www.gamesradar.com/dungeons-and-dragons-2-chris-pine-interview/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Gamesradar</a></blockquote>Now, I’m totally behind Gizmodo’s take — <a href="http://Make%20Dungeons%20and%20Dragons%202,%20You%20Cowards" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Make Dungeons & Dragons 2, you cowards.</a>Why should Paramount and Hasbro remake this movie that fell short of its box office goals?<ul><li>Because it wasn’t that short of the box office, and thanks to the shared nature of production costs the largest <a href="https://investor.hasbro.com/news-releases/news-release-details/hasbro-reports-second-quarter-2023-financial-results" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">loss from either studio was $25 million</a>.</li><li>Because a large part of that falling short was due to the compacted nature of releases that have meant a majority of films missed their targets this year. Releases are stacked up next to each other due to how the covid-19 pandemic reduced available theater openings for two years.</li><li>Because the <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/08/20/why-am-i-so-concerned-with-the-popularity-of-dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">marketing impact of the film for the game D&D</a> meant that even when WotC released zero game products, <a href="https://investor.hasbro.com/static-files/a2a2197c-0a07-49c8-8506-34ccf3bee347" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the game division went up.</a></li><li>Because releasing more movies helps amplify interest in things like <a href="https://watch.plex.tv/live-tv/channel/dungeons-and-dragons-adventures" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">D&D: Adventures, the FAST Channel.</a></li><li>Because the <a href="https://deadline.com/2023/01/dungeons-and-dragons-live-action-series-paramount-plus-rawson-marshall-thurber-eone-paramount-pictures-1235215486/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TV shows ordered</a>, TV in development (<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14169270/?ref_=nm_flmg_unrel_1_wr" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kolstad</a>) and the <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22750764/?ref_=nm_flmg_unrel_1_prd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">documentary</a> would be boosted by the greater attention that major films still get over prestige television. There would be synchronicity, and unlike Marvel, Star Wars there isn’t yet danger of being overwhelmed with barely connected interoperable plots.</li><li>Because Honor Among Thieves is still regularly one of the most popular films in the world. No, really. It’s <a href="https://flixpatrol.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">top 5 on Paramount+ in the world</a> this week and <a href="https://flixpatrol.com/top10/streaming/united-states/2023-11-25/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">top 3 on P+ in the USA</a>.</li></ul>That last point may be the most important. Long tails are rare in the current media environment. Many studios give up on “failures” rather than wait. The path to cancellation is quick. But Paramount and Hasbro haven’t given up on Dungeons & Dragons. It sits there on Paramount+ getting attention as one of the best found family films ever, a highly rated fantasy and it continues to help earn renewals at Paramount+ globally.So yes, I agree with Gizmodo on this point — released D&D 2, you cowards.<a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/11/25/honor-among-thieves-could-get-a-sequel/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/11/25/honor-among-thieves-could-get-a-sequel/</a><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dnd/" target="_blank">#DnD</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragons</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons-movie/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragonsMovie</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons-tv-show/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragonsTVShow</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/eone/" target="_blank">#eOne</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/hasbro/" target="_blank">#Hasbro</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/paramount/" target="_blank">#Paramount</a>

Full Moon Storytellingtl;dr – I’ve become a horse-race style observer of the D&D movie because I see the numbers as a proxy for acceptance of a hobby that remains just on the edge of pop culture.It is inarguable that the D&D movie didn’t turn a profit at the box office. It was pulled from theaters after <a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl1879410177/?ref_=bo_gr_rls" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">earning ~208 million dollars</a>. Production costs were reported to be ~$150 million, some of that budget was higher due to filming during the early stages of the pandemic and across four nations (Iceland, Ireland, England and the U.S.A). Those costs were supposedly split evenly between Paramount and Hasbro, but Hasbro only held distribution rites in the U.K. and Canada due to their ownership of eOne at the time.<a href="https://ir.paramount.com/static-files/73058afe-92c5-4456-a600-4a79d83cb168" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Paramount reported in Q1</a> that they spent at most $62 million on advertising the movie (that number is bundled with another film). Hasbro never revealed their ad spend, but did take a <a href="https://investor.hasbro.com/news-releases/news-release-details/hasbro-reports-second-quarter-2023-financial-results" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">$25 million impairment</a> due to the film not hitting theater expectations.<a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dungeons_and_dragons_honor_among_thieves" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">It is a highly rated film.</a> And some would consider those box office numbers a failure or a flop. I have spent way too much time in certain corners of the internet arguing how it wasn’t flop or failure.But my evidence isn’t raw dollar numbers. So why do I argue?Part of it is because I’m a marketer that loves D&D. One piece of guidance I use is the massive increase in search around the movie.<a href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore/TIMESERIES/1692564600?hl=en-US&tz=420&date=2021-08-20+2023-08-20&geo=US&hl=en&q=%2Fg%2F11g2w0thbd,%2Fm%2F026q9&sni=3%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"></a>Red is D&D the game. Blue is D&D the movie. The first blue spike is when the movie’s name was released. The second blue spike is the Super Bowl ad. The third is the release buildup. All are echoed more strongly in the game’s search results.Search results don’t directly connect to purchasing. They are merely an indicator. But that indicator is strong, very strong. No other event in modern D&D has the spike creation that Honor Among Thieves did.Also, a ton of people are still watching D&D: Honor Among Thieves. It’s been available in the United States via Paramount+ for more than three months. From its release week on streaming it has been a <a href="https://www.pcmag.com/news/must-watch-the-most-streamed-tv-shows-and-movies-this-week" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">top ten movie every week</a>.D&D: Honor Among Thieves was #9 heading into this weekend.Just prior to the current weekend it finally released in the <a href="https://flixpatrol.com/title/dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/top10/united-kingdom/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">U.K.</a> and <a href="https://flixpatrol.com/title/dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/top10/ireland/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ireland</a>. It is number one on Paramount+ in both markets. When it was released in <a href="https://flixpatrol.com/title/dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/top10/canada/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Canada on Netflix</a>, it was number two for most of the first week. It releases on Amazon Prime globally on August 25.It ranks when bigger box offices successes don’t.Some streaming isn’t captured. For example, I just watched it on Alaska Airlines. It was the third listed movie in the New Movies section, again ahead of much more popular films.<a href="https://flixpatrol.com/title/dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/top10/#tab-graph" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Video on Demand numbers</a> are even stronger.For 35 days it was number one or two on iTunes. In the 110 days it has been available there are only seven days it is not in the top 10.On Google Play it had a 44 day run at #1. Once on general release it has never dropped below 7th. On Amazon it wasn’t quite as popular, but the D&D movie was still strong.On less popular services it still did well, on Rakuten it just leapt to number one last week, for example.How does a movie that fell a bit, but not a lot, short of financial success metrics (pre-March 2020 people would use a doubling of production+marketing, now the 1.5 is more common) do this well in the modern environment?How did D&D: The Brand (not the game) have a 74% increase in revenue when the movie was a failure? Probably because of licensed goods. There are a lot of them. I bought the Healing Potion mints for example.Full Moon Storytelling is presented by Homes by KC <a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.files.wordpress.com/2021/11/kristin-clark-logo-white.png" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"></a> <a href="http://homesbykc.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Homes by KC</a> is a Keller-Williams Realtor with a background in interior design, marketing, and project management.Follow her on <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.facebook.com/kristinclarkrealty" target="_blank">Facebook </a>or <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.instagram.com/homesbykc/" target="_blank">Instagram </a>to see featured homes in the area as well as to get advice on the real estate market around Puget Sound and southeast Washington.

I had a parent think that the game was the path to Satan. The moral outrage and general jocks v. nerds aspect of my relationship to the game came up a lot when I was interviewed for “<a href="https://www.washington.edu/museology/2019/05/21/heros-feast-finding-community-through-dungeons-and-dragons-student-exhibit/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hero’s Feast: Finding Community through Dungeons and Dragons.</a>”I’m lucky enough to see, and help, my other main hobby grow in popularity. Soccer in America is mainstream. It’s popular enough in the Seattle area that a hobby website can <a href="https://www.sounderatheart.com/2023/8/18/23837850/see-you-on-the-other-side" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">go independent and fully employ at least one person</a>.And yes, there are similar successes in D&D. Critical Role is the largest of those. They aren’t alone. These are still often niche cases, and not an indicator of mainstream acceptance, as much as there can be a mainstream in a world where every hobby and interest has its own channel.Honor Among Thieves was an opening for something like the mainstreaming of comics. It may not have gotten there. It might have. There’s <a href="https://variety.com/2023/biz/news/hasbro-entertainment-eone-olivier-dumont-zev-foreman-gabriel-marano-1235698163/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">still a D&D TV show in the works</a>, as part Hasbro Entertainment and in cooperation with Paramount.Paramount and Hasbro also keep expanding where D&D: Honor Among Thieves is available. That’s uncommon with niche properties. The Peripheral was just cancelled. Willow was cancelled. It’s easy to cancel shows and movies that aren’t massively popular.Streaming continues to sort itself out. Paramount was late to the game. They are <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/paramount-beating-hulu-originals-movies-214701684.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">moving ahead of older streaming platforms</a> because of their original movies and their deep catalog of TV.And I guess that means D&D: Honor Among Thieves judgement as a financial success is a lot more like a campaign than a one-shot. There was no overnight hit, just a consistent leveling up and growth over the past six months as the fans of the game keep watching, keep showing others the movie and keep powering the growth of D&D to heights that us 1980s basement dwellers thought was just a dream.<a href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/08/20/why-am-i-so-concerned-with-the-popularity-of-dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2023/08/20/why-am-i-so-concerned-with-the-popularity-of-dungeons-dragons-honor-among-thieves/</a><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dnd/" target="_blank">#DnD</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragons</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons-movie/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragonsMovie</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/tag/dungeons-and-dragons-tv-show/" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragonsTVShow</a>

CoraSo, <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/DungeonsAndDragonsMovie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DungeonsAndDragonsMovie</a>. I did not know much about it. And have never played the game. Or any such roleplay game. But I like fantasy stories. And the main actors. It was fun. Laughed out loud a few times. Was able to follow the story. Some cool scenes. Very entertaining. 😃👍 And the chemistry between Pine and Page? 🥵😍 No? Just me then? 😇
