I seem to recall that this happened once in the cartoon, too, though without the car. The kids made it home, but Venger followed them. Their weapons were useless in our world, but Venger still had his magic -- so they went back to the Realm because it was the only way they could stop him.
I do recall that episode. I believe it's the one with the magic chest that worked like a gate to other planes. The Box?

There’s actually a “canon” series ending included in the box set. The final episode was scripted and voiced, just never animated, and it was fantastic. I won’t spoil it, but it’s definitely a conclusion.
Most chill inducing scene of this commercial? I’d have to say the shield scene. The archer’s wig is cringeworthy lol,
That's the script for Requiem. It ends with the kids having the choice to go home, or stay and fight for good in the Realm.
The bad part of the commercial is That Wig. Otherwise, that commercial is a nugget of gold because it's wrapped all sorts of nostalgia. Which is a good way to generate buzz. |

I always thought if you wanted to make a mainstream pop-culture Dungeons & Dragons "event" movie, the quickest way to success is a live-screen adaption of the 80s cartoon.
The Renault commercial is cool in that it "concludes" the cartoon story, the kids arriving back in the amusement park, albeit with Uni and Venger in "our" world.

Hah! I know right?!
Did anyone else get chills when the kids made it home? |

I first thought this was a trailer for a new D&D movie, and then the car appeared...
They sure nailed Tiamat beautifully. |
