Dragon's wouldn't be able to fly without magic *regardless* of how hard/heavy their scales are.

Glide, mabye, but it's effectively impossible for anything approaching the mass of a typically-depicted dragon to fly by flapping wings.

If a pteranodon with a 30-foot wingspan can fly...

A pteranodon has a slightly different mass to wing-surface-area ratio than classical dragons...

"Oh, it's an ad for an XBox game ... no ... wait, it's a disaster film? Wait, more like Godzilla meets 1970s Kung Fu meets Star Wars meets ... oh dear... what is this supposed to be? And why the kids?"

I can't figure this trailer out for the life of me. I think it may end up being the film version of Rifts -- a bit o' this, a bit o' that, all thrown together for no apparent reason...

As long as there is less boring downtime filled with human drama than Reign of Fire, I'll be quite happy with this upcoming movie.

looks kinda like what Reign of Fire promised to be, and wasn't...

I must be the only person on Earth who LIKED 'Reign of Fire'...

This looks awesome though. Horribly tacky, most likely. But it *looks* awesome.

Very different.....pteranodons were built like living kites...they were very light, gracile....even the largest of them. Dragons, on the other hand, are flying tanks.

I liked the CGI dragons and other reptiles. That's what i came for and I was satisfied.

The evil warriors were a touch low budget and there were some cheezy "attacking with fireworks" parts. Another audience member made a 'Power Rangers' comment that was not wholly inappropriate. The General reminded me of Domodar with no lipstick and a deeper voice.

The plot was a laugh riot for me and my friends. We were cracking up about the old man tricking a parent so he could be 'alone' with the young boy.

Draco-cobra was quite dumb at times though i think he looked cool.

The Military vehicles vs the dragons and reptiles were awesome fights
