JourneyQuest

So imagine some LARP enthusiast's came into some inheritance money and decided to make a series. Its thin on story, the acting isn't great and the make up and costumes are pretty bad, however this is more than made up for by the comedy. It's charm is that it doesn't take itself seriously and for that it is endlessly enjoyable. Definitely worth watching!

With all the focus on special effects in movies today it was refreshing to watch a creative story unfold with great performances by the actors. I thoroughly enjoyed Journey Quest and would have loved to see more.

A must for every D&D gamer. I highly RECOMEND these shorts

It's funny and crowd sourced, and you should give them all your money so they can make season 3.

I have to write 10 lines.

That's kinda dumb What do I write? I don't know Still need more lines More lines and no spelling errors.

Even more lines, this is getting dumber Are we done yet?

Great now it truncated my text, so now I have to write even more, I already said what I wanted, it's funny, you should watch it, go see it right now, for free, on you tube!

Apparently you tube is a spelling error, and has to be corrected, that is so dumb, I'm never writing another review in here, thanks for nothing internet movie database, you used to be cool, now everyone is using rotten tomatoes.

JourneyQuest starts with your standard fantasy tropes – a group of adventurers: Nara the Elf (Anne Brady), Carrow the Healer (Brian Lewis), Perf the Yellow Wizard (Christian Doyle), and Glorion the single-minded Warrior (Kevin Pitman) out on a quest to the Temple of All Dooms to recover the magic Sword of Fighting (voiced by Jeremy Spray) while being hunted by a band of orcs led by Rilk the Wise (Jesse Lee Keeter). Additionally there is Wren the Bard (Emilie Rommel Shimkus) invisibly (mostly) recording the epic and the Assassin (Samara Lerman) hunting the party to collect a bounty.

From there it plays on these tropes in many hilarious, unexpected and memorable ways. The storytelling is very solid and the characters are vibrant. Two seasons in, there are a multitude of open story threads that will likely take 6 or 7 seasons to wrap up. And I cannot wait.

What I love most about JourneyQuest over similar gaming-inspired shows is that one doesn't have to be a gamer to enjoy the story and get the jokes. This makes the series much more accessible to the general public than say Gamers: Dorkness Rising, Standard Action, or Glitch (all great shows by the way).
