YMMV / Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight

• Awesome Music: The soundtrack by Karl Preusser is excellent and even got nominated for a Grammy
• Complete Monster:
  • Takhisis is the Goddess of Darkness and Queen of Dragons, who battled the Gods of Light from the beginning of time. In the first age, Takhisis waged a war across the entire world of Krynn, slaughtering and burning everything in her path, until she was banished by the Gods of Light. In the present, trying to free herself and prevent the return of the Gods of Light, Takhisis leads her followers to conquer the world, land after land, leaving death and destruction behind, while ordering her minions to hunt down the heroes.
  • Verminaard is the chief priest of Takhisis who organizes the conquering of Krynn for his queen and prepares everything for her return. Burning down lands, murdering and torturing hundreds and enslaving masses of people to work in his mines, Verminaard threatens to kill their children if they disobey his commands. Tracking down Blue Crystal Staff, which capable of bringing back Gods of Light, Verminaard annihilates village after village, enslaving more people and planning to wipe out the Elves in their homeland. When the heroes managed to free his slaves, Verminaard orders his dragon and minions to kill them all, children included.
• So Okay, It's Average: It's fairly faithful to the book and has a solid cast with a good score, but the film is let down by sub-par visuals, crappy CGI and crams in far to much for a hour and a half run time.
• Special Effect Failure: Pretty much all the CGI Dragons and draconians. They clash horribly with the traditional animation characters and move very stiffly.
• Squick: In the name of Paladine, Why was Laurana kissing ELISTAN at the end? WHY!?!
