came out in 1996; we saw it in the theater, and watching it now will be the second time we've ever seen this film.

curiously we also remember when first we saw a preview for Dragonheart; it was before a screening of the 1996 re-release of Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver, which we saw in a nearly empty theater in one of the more curiously liminal neighborhoods of San Diego, "La Jolla Village". imagine associating Dragonheart with Taxi Driver, huh?

anyway! it's not a great movie, but...I have a sneaking suspicion this movie may have altered the course of our life. it's got a Chara in it! well, a Kara. (we went by "Kara" for a while but it was a thin disguise. Kara still exists in the system, though, as a furry spider with snow-leopard markings and mannerisms, a "sneppider".) there's a big dragon of course, and the haunting legacy of King Arthur and Camelot. Camelot still haunts us anyway; one of our Pendragon headmates, Sir Mordred, thought the appearance of Avalon in the movie was very funny ("if only Avalon were that easy to get to!" he said.)

also there's Dennis Quaid's strange bellowing performance, and an evil Saxon king who wants only conquest and glorification—why, it's like nothing much has changed. we're all very much looking forward to him dying at the end.
