Very sexy dragon: 9/10.

The rest of the movie was crap. I don't know much of what happened because I only paid attention to the parts where the dragon was on screen and there wasn't nearly enough of that.

2/10 overall. The best way to watch this movie is a YouTube supercut of all the dragon parts.

Except don't watch the part where the dragon dies because it's too sad.

My daughter went as Reya for Halloween but we didn’t let her get the hat part of the costume because we felt that it would be cultural appropriation and it was a good call.

Re: cultural appropriation I'm pretty sure the rule is it's only appropriation if the dress has some cultural significance. Daily wear for laborers (such as a floppy straw hat) is fair game.

So what was the deal with that weird baby? I thought he was going to be revealed as a magical shapeshifter or something, but no, we find out at the end he's a human baby and his mom's looking for him.

This baby is obviously hyper-intelligent, super-athletic, and can communicate with animals.

I refer you to the documentary "Baby Geniuses" (1999) for the answers to your questions.

Are we sure that that's even a dragon? I don't remember her breathing fire even a single time.

Dragon canon acknowledges alternate breath weapons. Sisu breathes fog.

The good dragons are always feathery of furry and the bad ones are always scaly. it's a very troubling anti scaly bias in the media IMO.

Counterpoints:

Sean Connery plays a good scaly dragon in Dragonheart and the titular Reluctant Dragon from the cartoon of the same name is also scaly.
