A king, resurrected with half of a dragon's heart, rules with an iron fist but is opposed by his former-mentor, a former dragon-slayer now allied with that last dragon who has the remaining half of the king's heart.

A fine, action-heavy, fantasy. Has a lot of recognizable stars.

1. DragonHeart - (1996 movie)
2. Dragonheart - A New Beginning - (2000 movie) (sequel)

3. Dragonheart 3 - The Sorcerer's Curse - (2015 movie) (prequel)

• 1:00 -- This movie harkens back to the good old days.. like some sort of 80s movie, except it's mid-90s.
• 1:30 -- Don't fight with your heart. Life lesson.
• 2:10 -- Nerd-boy.
• 2:20 -- Boy does he look and sound terrible.
• 3:35 -- That sounded like someone being burned alive. Harsh.
• 4:55 -- Strange for the king to be fighting, and stranger still for the king to be on his own. Is he king of a tiny kingdom?
• 5:40 -- I see no problem, go help your king.
• 6:10 -- They did kill the king, right? I don't see why they wouldn't take the crown either.
• 6:50 -- Where's his "nursemaid"?
• 7:10 -- A bucket on her head.
• 7:30 -- I'd consider taking a wound for her.
• 8:00 -- Heh, that was literally a bucket.
• 12:55 -- Oh, that's what DragonHeart means.
• 15:20 -- Slave labour from those rebellious peasants.
• 15:40 -- Called it.
• 17:25 -- Poetry.
• 31:30 -- Doom sound
• 32:30 -- Damaging male reproductive organs is funny!

• 36:00 -- I don't understand why this deal was struck. Ideas:

  • Knight recognizes dragon's voice. Dragon explains that he didn't poison the king's heart.
  • The last dragon must be the dude that resurrected the king. Dragon explains that he didn't poison the king's heart.
  • Dragon get pissed at the knight not following "the old ways". Knight recognizes stuff and things. Dragon explains that he didn't poison the king's heart.
  • Anything, really. This entire movie's premise is fucked up, at least at this point, because of this nonsense.. maybe it'll figure itself out later, so I can look forward to the other movies in this series.
• 47:00 -- Okay, so the obvious stuff has been addressed.
• 48:00 -- Why is the audio volume so damned low now?
• 52:00 -- Got it, got it, need it.
• 1:02:00 -- Water depth?
• 1:03:00 -- Called it.
• 1:04:00 -- What's with this sudden cannibalism? Starvation should have been established, and if it were then the knight wouldn't have played this ruse here.
• 1:05:00 -- Avalon, King Arthur
• 1:11:45 -- Damaging male reproductive organs is funny!
• 1:12:00 -- Cleaved a lot of pudding have we?
• 1:15:30 -- I'd have the dragon attacking from the rear, using hit-and-run, to strike fear into them.
• 1:16:30 -- Called it. Though I'd have gone for the siege weapons in the initial sneak attack.
• 1:18:30 -- The difference between a warhorse and other horses is, among other things, that a warhorse wouldn't be so spooked by fire.
• 1:20:20 -- Hubris, Turning the other cheek
• 1:26:50 -- Why follow him down?
• 1:26:55 -- Shouldn't guards.. be pointing the other direction?
• 1:29:00 -- That's sexist.
• 1:29:10 -- There's no blood on her axe.

• 1:31:45 -- Or you could keep the king alive indefinitely, as the king suggested be done with the dragon.
