Dragons?

There was a movie I saw opening day in 2002.

Reign of Fire.

if you are into Dragons this movie was a good one.

They even hypothesized how they came to be and how they could breath fire and not burn themselves up. I will never forget what they said about visibility in twiglight hours. Which is true in the world we live in. ignore the 5.9 out of 10 rating. If you like Dragons I think you will love the movie.

Aside from the ridiculous idea that they were in a 65 million year hibernation, it did seem like a plausible story.

It's Hollywood, just full of ridiculous ideas haha. At least it was an enjoyable movie nonetheless.

"Of course...the secret is that dragons exist. They're just small. And don't fly. And don't breathe fire. That's like the eagle in my avatar. She may be small and yellow but she's obviously an eagle. What other conclusion could reach?"

This has got to be one of the best retorts I have read in a long, long time.

Kudus, Parakeet.

Dragons live in Canada. In the Rockies. They like to eat Candians. That's why there are so few Canadians living in the Rockies.

Obviously they don't exist any more, and seem to be purely mythical, but at the same time we do have proof that dinosaurs existed.

And there is still some dragon looking lizards left if I'm not mistaken, but they certainly don't fly nor breathe out fire!

Therefore I think it's possible that at one point perhaps some sort of dragon like creature might have existed, or perhaps a dinosaur corpse that looked like a dragon was found and it inspired the whole dragon movement.

As for a dragon in modern day society, I highly doubt it but there might be a miniature version of something similar somewhere in the world that has not yet been discovered, that could be possible, but I doubt the fire part.

I watched a documentary about dragons a while back. I can't for the life of me remember what they said, but some biologist made some pretty interesting claims of how an animal could generate fire from it's lungs.
At any rate, there had to be something that made so many people from around the world come up with the idea of a flying, fire breathing dragon.
Maybe it was simply a few surviving dinos whose stories were passed down through generations....?
Or maybe they really existed....?
