If I were the Queen, I would just knight a bunch of fighter pilots or something. Although yeah, I know that totally ruins the premise of the movie and means you wouldn't be able to have a movie with a bunch of old, famous people. Cause yeah, I am sure a lot of people would pay to see that movie.
Perhaps the “magic” of that dragon’s defense would be tied to the ritual of knighting. The knight in question would have to have actually DONE something to earn the knighthood as opposed to merely being knighted in anticipation of worthy service. This would be a plot point.
Sure, if we're going to have magic dragons and magic knights, we might as well put restrictions on the magic. But no, I get it. There HAS to be some sort of rules. Otherwise... who would you have to knight on that nuclear submarine to allow the missiles to hurt the dragon? Kind of reminds me of the movie Suckerpunch... would could have been a great movie if the false advertising hadn't made that movie to appear to be one thing and then was actually something else. That was a decent dragon fight scene.
Honestly, I feel like everyone is like that, including well-known comedians. Yeah, we laugh at a lot of their jokes because they are generally funny, but even they have jokes that just don't work, but until they realize no one is laughing, they think the joke is hilarious in their head. So I wouldn't feel too bad.
You know, I remember the name and I am almost positive I've seen it.... but I can't remember a single thing about that movie.
Christian Bale and Mathew McConaughey fighting dragons in the modern world. The dragons could only eat the ashes of things they burned.
I can think of a few.*
