Fear of Girls, a D&D Documentary

FhnuZoag writes "Google Video is hosting the short film 'Fear of Girls', written and directed by Ryan Wood. The film is a hilarious 'documentary' dealing with a pair of self-declared elite table-top roleplayers. The film has already appeared at a variety of fringe events, but here's a chance to see it for free and online from a server that probably can survive a slashdotting." Allright, so it's not that funny, but since I'm off to play D&D this afternoon, it tickled me.

These films are the 21st century equivalent of the minstral show. An oppressed class of society is poked fun of by the in crowd. The oppressed are reduced to a simplified accecntuated stereotype. In this case the fried chicken and watermelons is replaced by Doritos and Mountain Dew. Blackface is replaced by a pair of nerd glasses.

Maybe you were so wowed by the post-production that you didn't notice that the acting was horrendous. With more competent actors, this premise could have really shone.

Indeed. Also, it could have done with some better writing. The "druid" and "wear a cloak to school" bits were rough, but still funny. The rest was truly abyssmal. Two guys chewing the scenery reading awkwardly phrased lines off cue cards.
