Loved it, I'm not a pen and paper DnD guy, only the videogame DnD type of guy and still caught soo many easter eggs and references its insane. Also the movie is super fun and entertaining.
The thing that really impressed me was just how much D&D was in it. Down to being able to easily identify individual spells.
And you can't just name-drop Szass Tam and not follow through on that...
I watched it with a Larp group which does regular D&D as well, and we spent a good amount of time ID'ing spells, classes, and moments that would make you go "wtf dungeon master‽"
It did Easter eggs and cameos really well in a way that accentuated the story instead of detracting from it the way that the Mario movie did.
