It’s a very cheesy movie, but I like Dragonheart. Here’s a fan-made trailer that I think captures some of the best elements of the movie.

Save Against Sucking? What a Time to Roll a 1!

Empress Pete (Thora Birch) holds a powerful scepter that allows her to control the mighty invisible dragon, Elliott, protector of the Empire of Passamaquaddy. A coalition of evil forces, including the mage Profion (Jeremy Irons) and the Empress’s own parents, the Gogans (led by Shelley Winters), seek a similar magical item that will allow them to control the red dragons and overthrow Pete’s benign and progressive rule. Pete’s only hope is a misfit band of adventurers featuring Snails the Thief (Marlon Wayans) and the Dwarf Elwood “Lampie” Gutworthy (Mickey Rooney). And Doctor Who shows up as an old elf, for some reason.

There, they find it in the possession of a young man named Pete (Zhang Zhiyi), who uses his extraordinary martial arts abilities and Elliot’s fiery breath to fight off the evil duo of Dr. Terminus (Jim Dale) and the Jade Fox (Cheng Pei-Pei) while saving a ship in a terrible storm and taking part in extravagant musical numbers.
