HeyHey guys and welcome to my channel!
I'm a blue water dragon that thinks he's funny. I like to do research on topics that interest me and I tend to ramble on and on about pretty much whatever crosses my mind. Come here for minor commentary, personal thoughts, movie/video game reviews, a few songs, and some good simping over whatever it is I'm fanboying over currently.
Follow me on Twitter for more of the same and whatever else I do on a whim.

The Witch part 2 has its moments, but it was no where near as good as part 1. As for this, I haven't watched it yet, but I enjoyed your review and will add it to my watch list. I'm currently on Revenant staring Kim Tae-ri, which has been pretty good so far, but I'm only 3 episodes in.
Shame to hear about part 2! I'll still have to check it out though. And thanks! Glad you liked the vid!
He also tried selling a used fursuit for $12k
I saw that! It's wild
Im kinda tired of the pixar gut punch glad to hear there isn’t much of one in this movie.
There is a bit of a gut punch, but it all depends on opinion.
There is one, kind of. It really just depends on how well you connect with it for how effective it is.
i love a good rant heheh
Art🤡 was summoned & manifested by the college girl from hed dad's sketchbook --the little female🤡, i understood that Art🤡 summoned her &manifested as his imaginary friend that only Art🤡 could see her in some moments, till she🤡 could be seen also by the protagonists close to the end of the movie.. --Άrt🤡 is the most terrifying if Not the őnly terrifying clown😬in screen for me personally😬 --after watching Terrifier, "Pennywise🤡" is a kids amusement clown with hilarious lines 🤣
It was a hard watch for sure… 😂
I have mixed feelings about spiders. Larger spiders are actually less scary for me because you can easily see them, but small ones make my skin crawl.
I once read a horror book that described a spider that was the size of a cat, and I think that's the most horrifying size a spider can be. Too big to be squished, but still big enough to hide.
I love your insight on every detail explained. I've followed this artitst for years, but I'd never ask for commissions, I'm more centered in quality, so I'd rather commisison Bubblewolf than Miles anytime, offers outstanding renaissance quality for 1/3 of the price. <3
This feels like some weird anime adaptation and it cracks me up
This is the type of movie I would have on in the background during the Halloween season, not really care to actually invest into
Saying you "understand with both sides" and then saying you agree that AI wasnt thr right move....oddly enough. Not the right move. Hurt those pockets
What I mean is that I can understand why the directors would choose to go that route given the indie situation and timing, but that I disagree with that decision entirely. I'm very anti-AI art for obvious reasons. And by all means, hurt the pockets. Different forms of protest are valid too in order to get the idea across to the production companies. If you'd rather not support it financially, the film will be on streaming in a few days.
Yawn. Another review trashing the movie. What else is new.
I wouldn't say I'm trashing the movie. I even said that it's a very well made movie, it just doesn't stand up to the other 3 movies in any way unless you count updated animation a decade later.
Such a Kaiju groupie, I love it
What about Vermines ? French 2023 movie with a premise similar to this one but with a much darker tone
That one has been on my radar for a while now, but it doesn't seem to be available for streaming yet. I'm not sure where to actually watch it
@@DragonTrove It will be on Shudder the 25th of April, the director will be making the next Evil Dead movie after that. It got really good reviews from its theater release in France, can't wait to watch it like Sting it seems like really good fun 👍
eight legged freaks Is sooo good though Loved it started out a bit creepy but those spider noises just made it a comedy 10/10
It was a great movie so I would give it a 8/10
I was just completely disappointed in this one. While not completely terrible, it's definitely the worst of the Kung Fu Panda franchise - beating the third film by a mile. The only real redeeming qualities are the animation qualities and the music. The jokes could be funny, but most were a miss - especially that one scene where Po and Zhen sneak around all those sleeping henchmen, while making absurdly loud noises (that didn't even wake anyone). I was absolutely disappointed that the Furious Five didn't even have supporting roles. And the Chameleon was definitely the most pathetic villain of the franchise - everything she did was because she was too small to learn Kung Fu? Kung Fu is all about technique, not size. Zhen is smaller than her, so how did she learn Kung Fu? Heck, Mantis is smaller than both of them, and he's one of the greatest warriors in all of China. And they basically dumbed down Po's character, despite all the growth he's done in the previous three movies. And having Po choose Zhen as his successor...that was a down right terrible decision. It was like the movie was basically saying that it doesn't matter if you're not likeable and have little to no character development - just as long as you're a woman - so it was like shoving more of that female empowerment toxicity that has been going on with other projects in our faces. If that's what they were going for, than they had to look no further...than Tigress - she has had almost as much character development and growth than Po has - she was the perfect candidate for the title. But what probably disappointed me the most...was the limited time Tai Lung had. Tai Lung has always been my favorite antagonist of the entire franchise - and he deserved better than what he got. What happened to giving him a proper Redemption Arc? The side characters are also no better. There was so much that could have made this movie better. How about The Chameleon suffering from an illness that prevents her from becoming a Kung Fu master - and so, she turned to magic to steal the powers of masters to become the strongest warrior alive (but never truly gets over her illness; which is why she continues to steal so many). The Chameleon hires Zhen to steal Po's staff - which she does, but is confronted by Shifu and is forced to take him as well. The Chameleon opens the Spirit Realm to summon Kung Fu master and steal their power, but Tai Lung escapes. Po struggles to choose the right candidate, but then Tai Lung reveals The Chameleon's plan. They head to Juniper City to take down the Chameleon. On their way, Tai Lung and Po train and begin to learn from each other - but the Furious Five have trouble trusting him. Once there, they meet up with Zhen, who agrees to help them…for a price. They head to the Chameleon's lair, but Zhen betrays them and the Chameleon steals their Kung Fu (minus Po, Tigress and Tai Lung who narrowly escape). Po and Tai Lung get into a duel after Po loses his confidence, but Tai Lung encourages him. Zhen realizes her mistake and helps Po convince the Den of Thieves to stop the Chameleon. As the villagers battle the Chameleon's army, Po, Tigress and Tai Lung try to fight the Chameleon but get overwhelmed when the Chameleon turns into a horrifying Chimaera. The Chameleon then steals their powers, and soon overpower them. Po gives Tigress his staff, with which she summons a majestic dragon of Yin and Yang, which defeats the Chameleon; and uses the staff to return all of the stolen kung fu skills to their owners, who return to the Spirit Realm. Shen and Kai take the Chameleon with them. As Tai Lung departs, Po closes the portal; allowing Tai Lung to stay and further redeem himself. Tai Lung gives his respect to Po and finally acknowledges him as the true Dragon Warrior. Back at the Valley, Tai Lung reunites with Shifu, expressing that he will wait as long as it takes to be forgives…before accepting a cup of warm tea with his old master. Po choose Tigress as his successor. Po and Tai Lung help train Tigress to become the next Dragon Warrior.
That's also a very good alternative idea for how the story could have gone. I think making Tigress the new warrior would have been an odd choice though. If Po is that far along he needs an apprentice, Tigress would be too, by definition. Still yeah, I agree with pretty much everything else you got here. Weak sauce all around
@@DragonTrove Maybe Po didn't choose a successor. Maybe leave it for the final movie.
There's a review from Smarty Pants that mentions his idea of the Dragon Warrior is creating a legend out of nothing because if wisdom and skills were actual factors Po would never have been chosen in the first place. Zhen being the Dragon Warrior makes sense because she was a nothing thief in the same sense that Po was the nothing son of a noodle maker.
I enjoyed it well enough. It had the same wit and charm I liked in the previous movies but it definitely is missing the depth that elevated those movies from just feeling like “a movie for kids.” Which is totally fine, its just not as investing as an adult.
I loved the movie but it did have problems
I heard this lol
I have to agree that this move felt rushed. It almost felt as if there wasn't much... I don't know how else to put it besides emotion put in the movie.
That story idea is far better. This movie is just a cash grab and repainting and diluted version of the 3rd one
I SAID, I, HATE, FuRrIeS!!!
I use your videos to see if I would enjoy a film. Im not typically one to seek out horror unless I see a review like yours.
Thank you so much! That really means alot to me
Want to see VHS but not? Here it is. Also great use of the pun in the vampire story
You didnt find anything on the language used in the film when researching Argentina because they are using a language used by rural people to talk about deceased and infected animals. The english subtitles talk about "possessed" but in the original language they never mention any kind of possession; instead they use "enbichado" (literal translation is "has bugs in it") wich is when an animal gets hurt and the wound gets infected with maggots. Thats only one of the multiple terms that the subtitles in english fail to portray the true meaning, maybe a cultural difference that doesnt translate well outside of Argentina.
New favorite youtuber
Thanks so much!
Bubba did it right? Lol
Probably XD
I think I will take that song for one of my dnd characters, it will fit perfectly! Love the video as always
Hell yes i LOOOVE deep dives! @.=.@ this was a really fun watch!
The chant doesn't have to be heard by the victim at all, or at least not after the first swap. The creature just has to say it. This happens later in the movie. I think the creature just enjoys tormenting his victims and so wants them to freak out knowing it's about to happen.
Probably, yeah. It has the sadistic personality. But that swapping mechanic just isn't explained very well and the rules behind it are rather flimsy. An interesting idea, but eeeh in execution, imo anyway
Amazing! 🐙
Never trust the critics. All they care about is "the message"
Depends on the film, honestly. I can jam with some stupid nonsense if it's entertaining. This unfortunately wasn't for me
You care even more about it.
this movie is great, a throwback to Stuart Gordon lovecraft SExual,Gore and vioplent as fuck
It definitely has some Stuart Gordon charm to it, but this doesn't feel like a Gordon movie through and through. At least for me. It needed to go more all out imo
If you are gonna do Lovecraft with almost no body horror, is it really Lovecraft?
It's just normal bleakness
It's shite! End of review.
they need more in a series frist
I all three need a movie alone frist. They ready for amovie alone
I used to know both navos and malf. But I got caught between the fires of both of them. Siding with one or another was pretty much hopeless. However, I'm on neither's side here, and I do not condone or support any kind of harrasment that any kind that either malf or navos may have recieved.
Yes this movie is extremely bad. Somehow it’s cringe and boring at the same time.
Silent night
He also did happy death witch is ten times better
Silent night better
oh hey, fellow dragon lover :> thanks for the video! actually really appreciated the positivity lol. I didnt even watch the movie or know it was coming out but I dont keep up with this kinda thing so not a massive surprise. I did happen to see a scene by scene recap/ breakdown and I thought the hate was warranted as the story itself seemed...pretty broken but I was pleasantly surprised watching this as you went in with a much more positive outlook. not that I want to defend the movie or anything but I did think the massive hate around absolutely everything was a little over the top, like the first video I watched didnt think any of the actors were even acting? which felt a little unfair but yk, I didnt watch it so couldnt say anything. I also thought the movie fumbled the bag a bit in terms of...logical writing (like the ending was just so messy damn) and I think the movie had tons of potential it lost out on but it does reek of corporate meddling like disney ALWAYS seems to have which is just sad. hope the actresses dont get discouraged by this and I hope the directors take this feedback for improvement. the writing itself seemed extremely messy and I think if they had a better script/ had less rewrites post production (some scenes just look so baffling like honestly, if carol couldve restarted the sun whenever why tf did she sit around and mope for 30 years doing nothing and also why the hell did the villain abandon her motivation in the last 5 minutes that was just stupid) I thought the movie had a lot of potential and even if it wasnt a masterpiece or even good, it does seem like a lot of the hate is carrying on from other recent mcu films. which yk, is also fair bc at the end of the day it IS entertainment and if that fails to be entertaining, well... regardless of how much effort went in the audience does matter somewhat and its just a bit of a shame. really wish studios would pick up on storytelling methods from spiderverse and arcane and not just constantly steal the aesthetic assuming thats why its popular... anyways thanks for the review! Id love to go check out more of your videos and I dont usually comment but I wanted to here :) have a lovely day!
Thanks!
This film sounds like it should have been slashed
Off topic but...do you have a reference for your film critic dragon?
I have an old one available on my Twitter (or X). Go to my profile @dragontrove and click the replies and scroll down, I just posted it a few days ago
Cloverfield is my favorite Kaiju movie oat. This movie is really close to replacing it
My issue wasn’t the with that “unnecessary sacrifice” but the undoing of said sacrifice
According to some sources, the director added it last minute as a potential sequel bait. So....eeh?
Shin Godzilla set the bar high for me, I'll update after seeing this movie. Update, Damm this movie is badass, it has it all and a great plot with all the human subplot (guilt ) this was a great movie!!
Any updates?
I've watched just about every review on this movie that's popped up on my feed. While there's, let's say...certain aesthetics I'm not fond of, I think you did a really good job here and I hope your channel grows. Goji forever
Thank you!
