The hotel heiress turned megastar Paris Hilton was on radio (plugging "The Simple Life 2: Roadtrip") this morning on Kansas City talk station 710 KCMO and said she might be returning to Australia to do another film, announcing this just weeks after wrapping up a several week stint in the Dark Castle horror flick "House of Wax" currently filming in Queensland.

Apparently she's in talks for a lead role in the sequel to the abysmal 2000 film "Dungeons and Dragons". While it may have bombed, the sequel is drawing an unusually large amount of high profile attention and talent who believe that in the right hands, the property could still yield a viable film franchise.

Joel Silver is the producer on this and 'Wax', and the first 'Dungeons' star Justin Whalin is said to be on board too. Allegedly she impressed Silver enough to snag a role in this next one too, saying in her usual playful manner with the media - "Sounds like fun, I'll get dirty", alongside all the usual statements about what a great time the film should be to do.

Thanks to 'RC'

D&D2?? Why?????

 

[Wolfy]

This is a disgrace to RPG fans everywhere.

You know, I didn't think there was a way to make a Dungeons and Dragons film suck any harder than the original, but it looks like I was wrong. Thanks, Hollywood, for going that extra mile!

"Paris Hilton "in talks" to star in Dungeons & Dragons 2".....as what, a +1 broomstick?

 

[Baconäger]

There was a Dungeons and Dragons 1...?

 

[FoneBone]

D&D2?? Why?????

It was greenlit a couple months back:

I guess that, post-LOTR, the studios think that any fantasy movie, however shitty, can make a profit. And this one actually could, given its low budget... ugh.

 

[Kefkaff]

Maybe D&D's gonna be a comedy?

 

[Mason]

The original was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Please do not make a sequel.

 

[Felidae_Khrall]

Paris hilton stars as "Slutty wench #4"

 

[calder]

D&D is the reason I pray no one ever makes another 'guilty pleasure' movie thread. My true feelings would almost certainly get me shunned forever.

 

[aoi tsuki]

i've never played D&D, but it doesn't seem like trannies would fit in a fantasy setting.

Usually crappy movies make me laugh, the first D&D movie wanted me to destroy somethin real bad... This movie was pure garbage....

UGhhh.

 

[neptunes]

the 1st one featured marlon (don't know their names exactly) waynans and his crzay antics.

 

[Phoenix]

God if you're out there please prevent this movie from being made

 

[bob_arctor]

Best thing about the original was Thora Birch's tig ole bitties.

HAHA, that was great.

Hm. You dont say ...

 

[Killbin]

Paris as an actor?? Come on, bitch! You got enough money! Just stop it!

 

[Escape Goat]

I put on my wizard hat and robe...

 

[Chopin Trusty Balls]

Every time i think it cant get any worse....

 

[Belfast]

Geezus, why don't they just make a movie from the canon storylines of Forgotten Realms or Dragonlance or something? Why does it just have to be generic D&D?

Agreed.... I'd prefer Ravenloft

And the wanna be Darth Vader , Lord Soth.

 

[iapetus]

The sequel should really be called Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, surely?

 

[tedtropy]

The CGI dragon-on-Paris action sex tape should be surfacing any day now. Let's face it, she's gotta do that anytime she wants some media attention. It should be in the trailer!

 

[explodet]

Best thing about the original was Thora Birch's tig ole bitties.

That, and the scenery chewing by Jeremy Irons.

LET THEIR BLOOOOOOD RAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIINNNNNNN FROM THE SKKKKYYYYYYYYYYY

 

[MrPing1000]

Best thing about the original was Thora Birch's tig ole bitties.

And thats why I love her

 

[BobbyRobby]

Oh hell yes.

 

[MrPing1000]

And the great thing is if we want to see her 17 year old boobs, we just watch American Beauty. Everyones a winner!

[Tenguman]

This is a disgrace to RPG fans everywhere.

Like the first D&D wasn't?

And just how disgraceful can RPG fans get?


Also, read these two quotes together as one paragraph for a laugh....

the first 'Dungeons' star Justin Whalin is said to be on board

 

[Willco]

They better use dice in the new film!

 

[Mengy]

"LIGHTNING BOLT!"

What a winner that movie will be, might as well co-star Britney Spears as well...

 

[elitehebrew]

There was a Dungeons and Dragons 1...?

yeah one of the worst movies ever.
