Agree with you. I think it is because some movies come out at wrong time, and the theater is swamped with winners. So, even a very good movie might not perform well when a new Star Wars comes out.
These kinds of movies need a great monster in order to succeed. Conventional dragons just doesn't work for this kind of concept. People were laughing at the trailer in the theaters when it just turned out to be dragons.
Watched the film multiple times and I had the game on ps2 as well. Both completely brilliant and the fact you got to play as a dragon on the ps2 game was pretty epic.
This trailer will always stick with me for that clip of McConaughey flying through the air with an axe. I was so hyped only to get to that part of the movie and see my guy soar straight into the dragon's mouth 😂
This movie deserves more attention this was an amazing film to watch really fricking wish this had a sequel or something like a prequel to what it was like when the dragons started invading the world
I remember going to the cinema with my parents to see this movie, and I can only remember the first scene where the guy comes out and bites a tomato, and I asked my dad "why he bites it? tomatoes alone aren't that yummy"
Why does this trailer say "2084" in the beginning. The film starts in the early 2000s... the newspaper montage clearly shows an article about the dragons dated '2008'... and then the date stamp that appears when Christian Bale finally shows up says '2020'. Where the fk did 2084 come from?
Yeah turn it into a franchise and destroy it to oblivion like they are doing with everything else. FFS I rather have one movie than all these titles they bastardized.
@@UnpopularGameGuy..Agreed...they will just screw it up and wok-ify it. I would love to see a season or two about the daily lives and occasional dragon attack with the creativity and ideas of what is needed to survive and all the other ideas that may or may not have worked Even a little communication from survivors around the world in different groups sharing info and the one by one go silent over time. A season of how one group survives...then the next season on VanZant becoming who we see in the movie and then a season of them getting over seas and then wrap that up with them driving up to the castle. Then we go watch the movie from that point on :)
@@caprt8977 I watched it months ago. Great movie besides the ever changing beard on the American character. It changed every scene. Stubble to full to patchy wig, etc.
@@CameronKiesser...i thought that at first... But i have this movie downloaded and watched it with slow-mo in a few scenes. It is just his light colored hair and thin hair growth that make it look like that in certain lighting. There isa a scene where you can see one side of grown out and shaggy looking while the other side looks almost non existent. Its just a trick of the lighting on his hair.
This is nothing like that year! This would be like a global nuclear war. But instead of nukes, it's millions of fire breathing scaly beasts trying to kill us all. Better it's a virus that is easily spreadable but kills a small percentage of the ones who contract it. Not being quickly scorched to death by dragons.
No. Have you seen what they have done to good movies and franchises the last 10 years. Please no...they will just ruin it like everything else holly wood has been putting out.
There are good movies, bad movies, and the there are frustrating movies, flawed ones with a potential for greatness. Reign of Fire and Alien 3 are in that category.
They should've used the Johnny Cash song "Ring of Fire" for this trailer, TV spots and the actual film due to the name of the song is sometimes misheard as "Reign of Fire".
Yeah that is the one thing that bugged me about he story plot line....we fought them with our most powerful weapons....and they still won. Yet a harpoon can bring one down. You mean to tell me an A-10 Warthog with its cannon, an F15 fighter with its cannon, Cobra Helicopter and its cannon, Apache Helicopter and its cannon, or any thing similar from any other country couldn't keep these things at bay. Complete bs and they had to gloss over it to hide that fact. Other than that...I loved the movie.
If someone could make a dang great show that would be similar to GoT, without s*x and n*dity, I'd be so f*cking happy. I can't watch GoT, and I am not gonna put myself through panic attacks and disgust just to try to enjoy the dragons...

@@morganc.m1830 A LOT of shows today got sex and nudity, you shouldn't deprive yourself a wonderful show because of that... you need to see GoT if you haven't
Something I noticed which gave an extremely weird vibe to this otherwise awesome movie: the script is so fundamentally American. The characters' names are American (Quinn, Eddie, Devon, etc..., all names no sane Brit would give their kids), their language is American English, the fact that they're praying, etc... Half the script should have been rewritten for the British setting.
Happy 20th Anniversary!!! It's simply amazing how much the CG has held up for twenty years!!!
congrats
that wasnt CG they used crocodile DNA to breed real dragons in a lab.... it was exposed in a documentary....
This was an extremely underrated movie with an a-list cast.
A list cast and an early career Gerard Butler as well.
I don't know why this movie was never bigger. Fantastic film and done really well. Wish they would make a sequel!
Agree with you. I think it is because some movies come out at wrong time, and the theater is swamped with winners. So, even a very good movie might not perform well when a new Star Wars comes out.
Sequel no. Stand alone great movie
I kind of think it's an over the top action/fantasy flick. Dragons appearing all over and trying to kill us all.
Better this kind of thing never happens. We really can't co-exist with scaly fire breathing exotic creatures.
These kinds of movies need a great monster in order to succeed. Conventional dragons just doesn't work for this kind of concept. People were laughing at the trailer in the theaters when it just turned out to be dragons.
I’ve seen this at least 20 times that’s how good it is
Watched the film multiple times and I had the game on ps2 as well. Both completely brilliant and the fact you got to play as a dragon on the ps2 game was pretty epic.
Such a cool forgotten movie.
I remember this being so much scarier and more serious than the trailer made it seem...
I thought the trailer was serious, I didn't watch the movie yet
Yeah, very cheesy 2000s trailers are a bit rough in 2022.
@@Bildevoful They're not cheesy at all dude. Trailers today suck way more.
@@DestinyAwaits19 oh, ok I'm sorry
@@Bildevoful Nah you're all good bro. Nothing to apologize for. I'm sorry for saying that to you my man.

Same here that's about the only thing I remembered from the trailer. Lol it's why I'm watching it again
@krazykajeevie you messing with me surely 😂
@krazykajeevie well I was never into lost so I can't spoil that at least
lol same. It’s the whole reason I looked up the trailer just now. That image just popped into my brain
It’s so funny seeing old trailers and remembering that EVERY SINGLE ONE had the fuckkng EXACT same guy narrating all of them 😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️
This movie is so much better than this trailer...
Agreed...great movie 💚
I prefer watching trailers without sound
I dunno the trailer is kind of sick
Loved this movie! Underrated.
Just wanna remind everyone this movie takes place in 2020 😂😂
@Universal Space Expeditioner The movie actually took place on 2020. Watch it. They must have changed it after this early trailer.
Dragons? Covid? Basically the same thing :)
Why does it say London 2084 then? I'm so confused 😅
@@ladybuglai They changed it in the movie from the trailer
@@CaptainNelson230 Yup, lots of death
Re release this today and it's a hit just off the cast.
Im sure an updated cast would be great but lets not brush off the original. It was an allstar cast back then.😏
@@jimscott5193 yes it was
This movie deserves more attention this was an amazing film to watch really fricking wish this had a sequel or something like a prequel to what it was like when the dragons started invading the world
I remember discovering this, happy times. :)
Hey Elon, have you seen that movie where Batman fought dragons?
The name is bateman, patrick bateman. not batman
Thats why im here!
@@Fein811 that username suits u
Such an underrated movie. Great performances from Matt and Christian.
I remember going to the cinema with my parents to see this movie, and I can only remember the first scene where the guy comes out and bites a tomato, and I asked my dad "why he bites it? tomatoes alone aren't that yummy"
You have triggered me.
Funny the things we said (and remembered) as a kid 😂
honestly nobody cares what you said in the CiNeMa
@@Coltonmoore79 you cared enough to commen in a 20 year old anecdote.
@@MasterGeekMX it doesn't take that much care to trash you losers.

Only god knows that question
My theory is that originally it was supposed to take place in 2084, but late in the production they changed their minds?
This movie has the potential to become a complete franchise.
Especially those years leading up to the movie time line.
Yeah turn it into a franchise and destroy it to oblivion like they are doing with everything else. FFS I rather have one movie than all these titles they bastardized.
I wish it had more success because it had so much potential
I remember watching it as a kid. I forgot about it for years
They're extremely intelligent, highly evolved and they don't like sharing the planet.
Think I'll watch this today for the first time, a lot of comments here talking it up
So what did you think?
You bring down the beast!!! Thats all i could remember as a child😂😂
When I was 10, I tried pirating Pete’s dragon but got this instead. I ended up thinking this was Pete’s dragon
I really miss trailers with a voiceover explanation
The cast, holy shhhh.
I'eve watched more than 10 times that a very good cast nd movie
Now would’ve been a really good time to watch how to train your Dragon
Best dragon movie of all time
My friends brother was a screenwriter for this been meaning to watch it again.
How about telling them to write up a sequel
Cool movie, stands up pretty well still, re-watched it in 2022 and spotted little King Joffrey as one of the kids from the castle.
Yup watched it today and also spotted a kid looking like Joefrey. Then looked at his filmography and yup his first TV appearance.
This movie is amazing. Severely underrated. The CGI still holds despite being created in 2002. Man, Netflix should develop a TV series about this.
They shouldn’t
@@UnpopularGameGuy..Agreed...they will just screw it up and wok-ify it.

Heard about this movie from CGI artists react. Thinking about buying it. Looks great. Though this trailer is edited horribly.
The movie is great you should watch if you haven't already

Shown in:
The Scorpion King
The Sum of All Fears
Bad Company
The Bourne Identity
How have I not seen this
Denton Van Zan is my go to reference when trying to create a barbarian in DnD.
2020, that parts funny!
But 2 eye candy, plus Dragons…..
The best!
well if you want to count eye candy you left Izabella and maybe even Gerard Butler :)
What a great movie i would love to see it again free on youtube , I love Red dragons and Blue Dragons
This trailer would be so much better with the first speech "we thought that the meteor killed the dinosaurs..."
And cut it just there.
Agreed....
Does anyone know the song that plays in this trailer????
The Band is called "Mad at Gravity."
the song is actually Don't be afraid by StereoMud
Who'd have thought they'd predict 2020 spot on?

I love this movie.😊
Matthew McConaugheys final axe scene is awesome
Did anyone play the game of this movie. It was so good for the time.
Oh yes.i loved playing this game.
Remake this movie 2022 with the same characters would be so much better than before
No. Have you seen what they have done to good movies and franchises the last 10 years. Please no...they will just ruin it like everything else holly wood has been putting out.
What a stupid idea
Had no idea this movie existed. Ty Joe Rogan 😁
staring "Dracarys"
There are good movies, bad movies, and the there are frustrating movies, flawed ones with a potential for greatness. Reign of Fire and Alien 3 are in that category.
2024 this movie still fire💥
They should've used the Johnny Cash song "Ring of Fire" for this trailer, TV spots and the actual film due to the name of the song is sometimes misheard as "Reign of Fire".
That song doesn't even fit the scenes and the action going on lmao.
Bro how did I just find out this movie existed and from a book lol
I need to see this
I say give it a chance because its awesome
Both are best actors.
And an early career Gerard Butler as Creedy :)
This is trailer is epic
I remember my dads vhs copy of this was fucked or maybe it was a dvd but I thought this whole movie was in black and white for ages
Devilish the dragon 🔥🔥
Need a remake with modern visual effects
They’ll get to it Hollywood is running out of movie ideas
underrated
Finally Find this movie 😅
Alguém tem o link para baixar esse filme&
I think I’ve seen this movie, but I can’t be certain. There’s something wildly familiar about it. 😅
Best dragon movie
one man... one desire... to rid the world of dragons
wanted more dragon action!
C’est pas grave si je fais pas les 15 série d’un coup? Genre si j’étale ça pendant la journée
I like to see the dragons from a song of ice and fire go one on one with us army apache combat helicopters.
Yeah that is the one thing that bugged me about he story plot line....we fought them with our most powerful weapons....and they still won.
Yet a harpoon can bring one down.
You mean to tell me an A-10 Warthog with its cannon, an F15 fighter with its cannon, Cobra Helicopter and its cannon, Apache Helicopter and its cannon, or any thing similar from any other country couldn't keep these things at bay.
Complete bs and they had to gloss over it to hide that fact.
Other than that...I loved the movie.
God, they do trailers like they used to.
anyone know the song playing in the background?
I always thought it would be the robots that got us in 2084.
This was House of the Dragon late 2000 minus the Iron Throne medieval era before it was cool.
If someone could make a dang great show that would be similar to GoT, without s*x and n*dity, I'd be so f*cking happy.

I remember playing this game on the PlayStation
Me too it was fun
Aliens, but their dragons.
this movie can easily serve as a sequel to Game of Thrones 😂

The trailer really dosen't make the film justice
I was personally rooting for the dragons in this movie.
Well that is a shame.
This is HQ? This looks like its negative 4k.
0:45
Hay otra película de dragones dónde atacan la ciudad salio en 2007 trata dónde la chica tiene un tatuaje en el hombro

Reign of fire
Movie is a garbage fire. No dragons. f-
RV trip when?
I especially hate when Christian Bale and Matthew McConaughey CONSTANTLY stop to yell in the hallway and kiss. Like..wtf

Go home Tj you’re drunk.
Also such a weird decision that they made to just add 19 minutes of news footage of 9/11 :/
