Great looking animation.
David Anderson
Yeah. The set-pieces are very well-done, but there's some corner cutting in the dialogue/non-action scenes.
Jackson Hall
What was it even about? First time I’m hearing of this.
Jaxson Evans
How science is objectively better than magic
Christopher Kelly
Anyone else think this guy came across as kind of a perv?
Josiah Moore
Hey she reciprocated. It's all cool.
Brandon Lewis
Danielle or Melisande? Because he was vaguely creepy with both.
Isaac Martinez
They could have done that final confrontation SO much better!
Daniel Rivera
I
AM
VICTORIOUS!
Ethan Cook
Science is killing off magic, so a wizard with James Earl Jones' voice decides to fuck things up with magic dragons.
Jason Parker
Nice try reptilian
Brandon Turner
...
Bentley Morgan
The movie spent an hour setting up the plot and the last 30 minutes were the actual adventure
Ryder Long
Dragons are for slaying.
Jonathan Edwards
What a silly dragon design.
Kevin Moore
Really fun movie. Much more rewatchable than I expected.
Normally I would say the animation quality is most important, but when they paid for James Earl Jones having a ball as the bombastic villain, I don't mind a few cost-saving measures.
Juan Fisher
Wouldn't you rather talk about SCIENCE?
Justin Richardson
I remember watching this as a kid on the disney channel as a lad in the 90s
only found out what it was called again like 2015-16
Isaiah Nguyen
Smrgol was the best character, but Gorbash had a cooler name.
Oliver Jones

Cute movie. Can't watch m.a.s.h. without hearing Carolinus
Sebastian Johnson
James Earl Jones just hamming it up as the Dark Wizard Ommadon is still one of my favorite things ever.

Landon Morris
I think Doug Walker did the art for that back when he was an illustrator
Justin Sullivan
>the dragon's eyes depict the hollow soul of the creator
That's bullshit but I believe it.
Carter Scott
Would be hard to make it worse
Asher Harris
I've had the book since I was 5.
Not bad. Very proto-dragonology
Zachary Bell
Art style very cool
Anthony Bennett
Connor Gonzalez
I love this. Gonna buy the book.
Angel Johnson
Rod Reiss?
Andrew Lee
I watched this movie when I was very young, and I thought these guys were pretty creepy. Classic Rankin/Bass design.
Noah Sanders
Praying?
Isaac Price
i thought it did a goo job of presenting philosophical concepts in a way that children could understand.
Henry Peterson
Don't forget Col. Sherman T Potter as the good wizard with and ulcer. MILK!
Asher Bell
This film had a weird deal where they licensed a book apparently just because it was a bestseller without actually checking to see what it was about. In this case, it was a book without any real story to adapt.
The Flight of Dragons book was a speculative biology book about dragons. Pretty much the only thing in the film that came from it was the name of the main character, the handful of scenes that explain dragon physiology (like eating stone to produce gas to provide lift), and the basic designs of the dragons.
Almost everything else is The Dragon and the George by Gordon R. Dickson. The notion of creating a separate realm for magic plus the wizards besides Carolinus are original to the film with Ommadon standing in for the Dark Powers and the others eventually getting counterpaerts in later Dragon Knight books.
Oliver Butler
Daily reminder: the bad guy won.
Jaxon Cook
>James Earl Jones in this
>Christopher Lee in Last Unicorn
>John Hurt in Black Cauldron
>Gary Oldman as Ruber
You know when I was younger I wondered if they could ever make a movie that was just about the bad guys since they were cooler. I find myself wondering about such a story again.
