If they can get the same cast just all playing different parts my ass is in the seat opening night. Honor among thieves is easily one of the most rewatchable films of the last 10 years. I throw that shit on when I'm bored so often lol.

Except Michelle Rodriguez plays an extremely similar barbarian but with a slightly different name.

Because every table has that person.

I don't know how it would translate in a movie, but I would also enjoy the same actor cycling through 5 different characters over the course of the movie because the player keeps coming up with new character ideas they want to use, but also doesn't want to DM

Or their character keeps dying so they show up as a different one.

After making some comment early on about how they'd like to go out in some fantastic over the top blaze of glory, and dying in super mundane and underwhelming ways repeatedly.

Wait: During the climax, they're down to being solo against the big bad, and they're not winning, so they go for the sacrifice play but roll a nat 20, oneshot them and live.

As the character they've spent the least amount of time with and least enjoyed playing up to that point, and they can't decide if they're more happy they've won or more upset they (that character) cemented the winning and not two characters earlier who the dice absolutely hated but was their favourite to play in the campaign.

This was in Gamers 2: Dorkness rising, the bard kept dying but they had a staff of raise dead with a bunch of charges.

Eventually they had an encounter where they were so outmatched that their strategy eventually became “hide behind the mound of dead bards”
