Damsel Being Devoid of Logic

They conveniently ignore the fact that the dragon has brutally killed multiple innocent girls. Dragon killed Elodie’s dad. Dragon isn’t held accountable for that at all. They’re just besties? Cool.

In the movie trying to avoid the damsel in distress trope, said damsel has to rescue another damsel in distress, making this a collosal failure.

I'm gonna add my own devoid of logic. You know those slugs heal wounds...like heal entire burns. Well Elodie holds this slug in her hand at one point, and fall asleep with some on her in the night. Terribly lucky that the slugs don't heal her cut hand, and therefore remove her evidence

The plot hole is this: why do this marriage of noble girls thing? Get an orphan with no family, do the blood hand thing, and that would fool the dragon as much as these noble girls

So, this is what would happen: First princess gets thrown down: "Hey dragon, they tricked you, I'm not actually of royal blood, it's a rouse" Dragon Torches her Second Princess goes down: "Hey dragon, they tricked you, I'm not actually of royal blood, it's a rouse" Dragon: "Hum... If I had a penny for every princess that has told me that, I'd had two pennies, that it's not much, but it's weird it happened twice and in the time lapse of a frikking day" Torches her either way. Third princess gets thrown down: "Hey dragon, they tricked you, I'm not actually of royal blood, it's a rouse" Dragon: "Ok, wtf is going on? Let's have a wee chat"

Of course the dragon was just misunderstood and is a strong woman ally.

Wouldn't it have been much more interesting if Elodie had been trained for years by her father to specifically survive this ordeal to get the money? Would make his motivation more clear, would explain the feats of strength she shows and imo would make for a much more interesting charchter. It would feel less like her getting lucky at every turn.

I hate when characters are responsible for killing untold amounts of innocent people but the show-runners treat it like a badass moment

The main issue I found with the film was how the royal family were able to give so many young women to the dragon without anyone anywhere batting an eye. Like I really find it hard to believe their brothers, mothers & fathers are just okay with this.

A movie that has one or two, "Oh ... that was lucky" moments can be forgiven. A movie that is nothing but, "Oh ... that was lucky" moments cannot.

"That would be like the Lannister's wanting to combine their house with some random unheard family." Rohanne Webber didn't like that.

Something I really wanted to mention, is the fact that the dragon is somehow presented as somewhat of a misunderstood villain. All while the royals are pure evil, for sacrificing innocent girls. However the reason for that is the dragon in the first place. She decided that, because some dude long ago killed her children his descendents must suffer for centuries. This dragon wanted to kill innocent girls, because of something they never did and never had any control over. How does the reveal that her victims werent actually the innocents she wanted to kill make her a good guy in the end. The royals did some messed up stuff, however it was really the only thing to do to keep their own family and children safe. My guess is the writers must be big fans of generational guilt or something.

How cute of Elodie to reference the best scenes of GoT: surviving unsurvivable situations, forgetting about the dragon and yelling at it...

The morals of this movie are horrible! Apparently the dragon is a „good guy“ in the end, because she learned that she has been tricked into… killing the „wrong“ innocent people? Like, her wanting to kill the offsprings of the king would have been ok, it‘s only an issue that she got tricked into killing people who aren‘t blood related to the king? Wtf?!

So let me get this right... a dragon that literally creates fire in his own lungs and breathes it out through his own mouth can somehow be incapacitated if his own fire touches his own body? That's like a human's skin being melted off their face by their own snot if they sneeze!

6:35 I assumed that the person who marked a way out on the map got to the bottom of the crystal tunnel, saw daylight and thought that was really a way out and they went back to put in on the map for the next girl because she wanted whoever came next to be able to get out. Then she followed the path, made the final climb, and found a dead-end cliff. Realizing that the dragon was about to get her, she marked "not safe" on the wall as a warning before she was killed

This girl definitely learned how to survive completely unsurvivable shit from Arya 'Girlboss' Stark.

What was crazy about the third act is that it’s supposed to be about saving the little sister but they completely just forget about her once she starts her thing with the dragon. It even shows elody leaving alone. The little sister is just in the cave on the ground, then she just pops up at the end of the movie. I was like oh yeah, she exists. Where did she come from? And she was supposed to be the reason she went back. It’s so weird

Sooo. This is an allegory about teaming up with the devil.

I had no desire to watch it before this video, but now it sounds sooo dumb, that it might be kinda fun to watch with some friend
