If love to see a film about an arranged marriage where the girl/young woman. While unhappy with it, accepts it and uses her station to exert power over others. Power isn’t only about stabbing things with a sword or even being the top of the food chain. Sometimes it’s better to have the ear of those in power. I guess FFXVI kind of did this… and I love to hate her.

And the prince has no clue that his mother was planning to sacrifice his bride out of a misguided attempt to protect her own son.

See, there's this novel called Radiance. In it, the unwanted princess of the human kingdom is married off to a strange race of monstrous creatures with grey skin, yellow eyes, sharp teeth and claws. Now, the thing is the prince she's married to is also not the main heir and looked down on by his own family. The two hit it off by negging each other at first and just being friends, but it soon blossoms into a full-on romance. It gets kinda dumb near the end and the sequel ruins everything, but the concept is sound. I recommend the first book at least.

😂 very weird that the dragon flapping and moving around wasn't roarring or making loud wing beats and crushing dudes to show its fury...because then you could argue the king is being frozen with terror at the folly of his plans. ...oh and why wouldn't they send in ten knights, while the king has several men at the ready outside...the knights run in and we see the knights bait the dragon to chase them, killing some, or consuming them as it goes. Shoot make it so the dragon is a *Raid Boss* and it just is that dangerous to slay a dragon. The dragon gets hit with mortal weaponry, catapults, ballistas, spears and arrows, but the kings blade is special so the idea isn't to drop the dragon with the army, its to tire it and bring it to the ground for the king to get the killing blow. But the king locks up after seeing the dragon, and it gets some time to recover and it whips its tail or something to take the sword away and throw it into its cave. And then. The King surrenders.

Gotta love how Elodie is willing to forgive the dragon, who has killed countless people, including the sacrificed girls (toying and torturing some of them to death). She doesn't know what the truth is, but just believes the dragon when she says it was unprovoked. She has no proof that's true. Even if the dragon was tricked, she was still demanding the sacrifice of innocent princesses who had nothing to do with the crimes of their royal ancestor. Would it have all been okay with Elodie if the dragon had actually been killing those innocent daughters of royal blood, as per the agreement? Is it just wrong that it was girls who weren't blood related, thus making the dragon the victim? And then Elodie allows the dragon to kill the prince, who was clearly reluctant and apologized for what he did. He was obviously being coerced by his parents into something he didn't want to do. Much like how Elodie was pushed to agree to a marriage she didn't want thanks to her parents guilting her into it for the sake of their family and people. It would be easy to conclude the prince was also sacrificing her (against his will) to save his family and the people of his kingdom against the wrath of the dragon. Elodie has no idea what story the prince was fed and if he has the truth or not. He also didn't personally cause harm to the dragon or her babies, but her taking out centuries old grudge against him for the actions of his ancestors is fine? Elodie didn't even give him a chance at life and redemption. The only one who should have died was the queen and maybe the king (for all we know he married into the family against his wishes and is basically just a royal consort with no power). And all the people (nobility to even servants in the palace) had no choice but follow the will of their monarchs. But they get burned and melted to death, too, for the crime of being powerless under their queen's will? Even if some survive, their kingdom has fallen, which will undoubtedly lead to much misery and many deaths, from the remaining nobility right down to the poorest of peasants. Neighbors will be turning on neighbors as social order collapses and it is every man for himself. Because why would ANY of the people want to follow Elodie and her family? She's a bloody killer and psycho. Even if the people disliked the monarchy (which we have no evidence they did), Elodie is from a different kingdom with no connections there and she basically murdered the royalty she married in to. Although, did any of the citizens know she was married to the prince? Since even they would find it weird and rumors would easily spread if he's going through princess-wives like toilet paper. But Elodie has nothing about her that would make the people rally under her (unless she uses the dragon to demand loyalty, so rule out of fear). And if she murdered much of the nobility present at the wedding at the palace, then how is she going to manage or protect the kingdom from other kingdoms? Her shitshow little kingdom looks very different from the kingdom she's basically conquered. And if Elodie is just going to skip off on her ship with her dragon, is she really just going to leave her step-mom and sister in charge? The former not even being an educated or adquately experienced royal (rather the daughter of a rope-maker with no previous training in politics, decorum, economics, diplomacy, etc) and the latter being a child-princess with even less experience or maturity. Neither of them could run a kingdom alone or together. They certainly don't have any allies within the kingdom for them to rely on. I can't see them surviving long before someone else rolls up to commit the next coup during Elodie's absence. Make their death's look like an accident and you've got yourself a new king and/or queen! But at least a sadistic, man-eating dragon and Elodie got their revenge. Nobody wins!

They want you to sympathize with the dragon who had willingly been eating girls who had nothing to do with anything. It's not she like was tricked into being a murderer, she just ate the wrong kind of innocent people. You know you can be like, "Yeah, it's not right what happened to your kids, but you've become just as bad (if not worse) than the people who wronged you and you need to go."

Completely true. It's not just they wanted to 'girlboss,' they wanted to "subvert" and 'expose The Patriarchy!" All they did was actually expose their own corrupt morality. They're disgusting as people in charge of a movie. Imagine these people in charge of a country. About the plot, I hold that it COULD have been a good story in the hands of a good author. In fact, I could think of so many ways this could have been written into a much better story. Here's one. How about when Elodie and the prince talk and get to know each other more, then prince truly grows to like her to the point he finds he can't let be sacrificed. In the short moments they had, they showed one of the reasons he was distant was because he didn't want to get involved with someone he knew he was going to help sacrifice. So how about this for a twist? After he throws her down, there's a pause where you see it from his perspective. She falls. He knows she's still alive and injured. The guilt starts to eat at him. The others try to affirm it's all proper and good, and that this is ONLY way. Then he turns to them, and simply says, "No." And then he quietly steps off the ledge to share whatever fate with Elodie. Imagine a tale where Elodie has to overcome her own outrage and her own misgivings. Imagine a tale where in the end, both have to trust each other completely in order to escape. But no. Sigh. I am so tired of this "subvert" crap.

Contrary to popular belief, medieval people tried to keep as clean as possible (yes, I know this is fantasy, but it's inspired by the middle ages). They weren't covered in dirt and grime for the most part, and male manual laborers would even strip down to the bare essentials when working fields to preserve their attire. People would also keep wash basins and barrels at the ready to wipe their faces and wash their hands. I think these costumes feel out of place because the clothing doesn't look like it's been worn. It's too crisp. A way to fix this could be to just have the actors or anyone else wear the outfits around beforehand to break them in. Or tumble the costumes in the wash or something.

You are correct. Even in small kingdoms, the royal family has servants and workers that tend to the castle and do menial tasks for the people, like gathering fire wood to sell off. This movie just wanted to "show" why Elodie is "so physically strong and capable", even if it doesn't make sense for her to be doing this. The writers couldn't even do show don't tell correctly.

@@Hollendaryy4064 Actually I was thinking about this. First off it would be far less suspicious if random peasant girls were being kidnapping from settlements all over the place instead of high ranking nobility that no-one ever sees again. Honestly a princesses going missing would cause so much hostile tensions between countries it's unreal to think about. Like once the kingdom providing the bride gets the money, what's stopping them from using it to build up an army in revenge for their daughter? There is no way dragon nation would back out of deal like that as no country would ever trade or deal with them. Rumours would spread like wild fire about how untrustworthy that kingdom is. A peasant going missing would be like a common enough occurrence. Nobility going missing is huge news and could cause all kinds of problems including things like civil war back home for the brides country. Secondly the marriage isn't even required. It's the blood from the prince or royalty that the dragon is smelling to let her know it's royalty. Thirdly why the fuck would the royal family of this dragon feeding nation even discuss the truth with the brides family, what happens if they say no? They would bring guards with them and killing them all would have all sorts of problems. Like you don't think a brother or sister of the king or queen of the brides nation is going to be suspicious when they don't come back? Also yes Elodie is from a poorer country so they needed the money but you're telling me there was never a just or noble father or mother who gave them the middle finger? Honestly you could poke so many holes in this films it's not even funny.

Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany chopped wood as a hobby with his one good arm. It's estimated he cut down nearly 40,000 trees in his lifetime. During the time he spent in the Netherlands where he sought asylum after WW I he was well known for giving the local poor people firewood he cut himself. So there is at least one...... If you keep looking you can find more especially in countries and kingdoms where physical strength and outdoor activities were prized.

Ya know what annoys and amazes me... this same premise about a monster out for revenge was done with far more uniqueness and far more epic about 1000+ years ago. The tale of Beowulf which got an animated film with a actual twist on the original tale a few years back. For those who don't know the original tale. A monster is causing harm in a fiefdom or village so Beowulf and his team hear of this and go off to help to deal with the problem. The monster Grendel is defeated by Beowulf but not easily, in the poem it's described as no sword could pierce his skin. So it required Beowulf to actually rip and tear it's arm off. Grendel ran off and died in his home. As you can imagine Grendel's mother was furious and takes revenge by slaughtering the men she found while they slept in the great hall with Beowulf being away at the time. Beowulf comes back and with help tracks the mother down. Yet again another fight breaks out between the two and Beowulf wins again not without actual effort to do it. She almost killed him but in the end he wins. Why is this version of the premise better? Well first off it doesn't paint the mother of Grendel as right for what she did unlike Damsel painting the dragon as just some poor victim. Yes her children being killed was possibly a wrong. I say possibly because they are fire breathing monsters and they likely do not share a human morality. Hell we are even shown that it doesn't with the dragon wanting a lifetimes supply of kings daughters delivered to her every generation. Who are innocent of any wrong doing at least towards the dragon. So the dragon has a very warped sense of justice/morality. Could you live with a dragon living close by that has shown how cruel it is? Knowing that it might just plunk you up one day? Or burn your entire kingdom down, killing thousands of innocents? Which is exactly what we're shown at the end of the film. Damsel is the only one on the bridge so everyone else burned to death even those she told to run... She also couldn't have informed an entire castle of the threat. Also curious why there are no alarm bells or anything in case the dragon does attack. But of course that would require writers to apply actual logic to their work. Final fact even Tolkien did his own version of Beowulf. So yeah as you can see anyone claiming this premise is unique is well beyond moronic. When they say Hollywood and other writers are out of ideas, they're not wrong.

The dragon would have been a far more interesting character if: 1- she DID attack and carry off people and livestock, BUT she did it to feed her hatchlings. And have it so that the dragon’s morality doesn’t align with the morality of a human. What’s chaos to the fly is natural to the spider. And the reason that the dragon is just…stuck in a cave is because she’s been crippled by the king’s army. And the sacrifices aren’t to keep the kingdom safe, but it’s to prolong the dragon’s life and her suffering. Or 2- the dragon is actually one of the hatchlings that survived and witnessed her family’s deaths. She kills indiscriminately because she’s blinded by hate. The reason she’s in the cave is because she’s an adolescent and can’t fly yet, as dragons mature slowly. The dragon could be a cautionary tale about letting the pain of the past consume you (like fire and *magma* 😱) and/or a lesson about forgiving someone for your own good or something

I hate how movies preach how awful arranged marriages are for women but never mention men. Do the movie makers think they want to get together with a stranger, especially when it's an irresponsible, stupid, psycho who is completely incapable of empathy? Even in better movies, it's a problem. Jasmine from Aladdin doesn't know about paying and pissed off a prince of another country by having her pet tiger bite him. In Brave they almost go to war over it and it's treated as a joke.

My guess is that they focus on the fact that throughout history, most marriages would have been arranged by men (though probably not the groom-to-be). That gives them the impression that arranged marriages are something done by men to women, making them not just bad by default, but bad for the women. Which might explain why Jasmine just casually commits an act of war. Disney's never really understood medieval geopolitics, but hey, at least Aladdin's not as bad as Frozen in that regard.

Also, the dragon consistently follows the path of the princess as she's hunting her, several times directly through the path of the lava she just spewed out.

Do they explain, why they sacrifice princesses? Would he really dumb to piss of other kingdoms and having to pay them, when you just could throw a slave or even just some pigs down there😅

@Meerschweinchenweitwurfchamp One can infer it's because, if they don't, the dragon will destroy the kingdom. Presumably.

They somehow made a deal with the dragon that they would give her their daughters, since they killed her babies, in exchange for the dragon leaving them alone. But since they were actually grabbing other people's princesses and doing the blood ritual to trick the dragon, no, they did not need to use actual princesses. Could have just been using peasants.

"She looks like pure f king evil, but she's cool." LOL, I have this exact same issue with my dutch shepherd pound puppy, who LUNGES AT PEOPLE, is all black, looks like a problem, is rather physically large for her breeds at 26/27in and likes to stalk and sneak up on people to then lick the back of their kneecaps. It's kind of a major problem. She doesn't understand that she reads like a big scary attack dog like her breeds say she should be. She's Dutch Shepherd, Malinois, Black Lab, Pitbull, German Shepherd, CHOW CHOW, and other; four of those 5 breeds I've listed are PROTECTION BREED DOGS. Yet she is literally the sweetest girl ever. She does do therapy work at hospitals and nursing homes. So, there is that.

On the topic of the opening battle, this is an example of someone who doesn't know how battles work. When you are battling men you can use a line formation and a static battle line, when you are fighting a flying fire breathing beast you need ranged heavy weapons and superior numbers. Not you and your top 10 knights getting stomped out in record time.

The movie forgets that the families sold their daughters to be sacrificed. Why is the royal family being treated like the only ones in the wrong.

I know that the plot is bad but women can in fact chop wood well 🤣 however they never make the actresses work out to achieve the physique necessary to do what we're suppose to believe they're doing. Which is literally anti feminist because they're trying to uphold beauty standards while writing a character that's suppose to be badass.

There are several common complaints about this movie, so I ask instead: What does the dragon eat? A several ton dragon has to eat a lot, and if it at any point the local fauna or even worse the kingdom's cattle or horses were its victims, then the human attack couldn't possibly be unprovoked. I know perspective bias on the dragon's part comes into play in their lines, but it is also a central premise of the movie that the dragon is innocent. This movie seems to think a massive predator living and hunting in your vicinity isn't cause enough to remove it through force and cull any population growth. Humanity has exterminated entire species that were an existential threat to our lives, eg lions. We have also reduced populations of wolves when they threatened our food supply. It is nonsense to think a dragon living next door is a tenable situation. "But the dragon was sentient! It could be reasoned with!" DID THEY KNOW THAT BEFOREHAND?! I don't recall a line in which the dragon talks to the kingdom _before_ the assault on its lair. So a giant, potentially mindless monster resides in a local mountain and either hunts local fauna or steals livestock that could feed the kingdom. The king is a big bad for culling the children that would increase the predator's population and food requirements threefold. Also this problem doesn't just go away with the blood pact. You're telling me that for YEARS a dragon has been flying around and there has been no loss of life or livelihood such that another campaign to slay it was demanded? It took one completely untrained yet supernaturally competant girl to mortally wound it, a planned, concerted effort by the evil kingdom would've worked.

There’s a LOT of ADR in this movie. Count how many times a line of dialogue happens where you don’t see the lips moving. That tells me this thing was even WORSE and they tried to salvage it in post production.

1. Ray Winstone’s accent sounds so out of place when everyone around him is trying to sound posh. Shouldn’t his family sound more like he does? 2. The whole Royal blood plot is so dumb. Why go to the trouble of arranging a marriage with a noble family if all you need is a blood transfusion to convince the dragon that she’s the kings daughter? You could throw anyone down there. I would not be shocked if an earlier version of the script had the princess being sacrificed by her own mother without the arranged marriage plot device. That would make more sense thematically. 3. Ray Winstone doesn’t hesitate at all to try and rescue Elodie from the dragon despite just selling her into an arranged marriage for money. You would think he’d be a bit more conflicted considering how much he needs that money. 4. Elodies fighting skills come out of nowhere. This could have easily been demonstrated in the opening by showing her train instead of chop wood. 5. That dragon was stupid as hell. Why make a dragon intelligent if you are going to give it a negative iq?

Yes, I like Dragonslayer as well. The 80s was a good decade for fantasy films- The Princess Bride, Ladyhawke, Neverending Story, Labyrinth, Willow, Legend, Krull, etc. Hollywood seems to have lost the knack for writing it.
