I’m not into dragon chasing – trying to become Bradley Cooper. I want to be a New York actor. I want to plant a flag in this community.
‘Dragon Ball”s villains were easy to draw: Piccolo, Freeza, Majin Boo.
This little hobbit saves the world. The wizard kills the dragon and saves the town. So many people connect to that character; it doesn’t matter if it’s an elf or a hobbit or a dwarf. It doesn’t matter. They’re human in their heart and soul.
I think women should be more independent. In society, we’re portrayed as people who simply wear make-up and sit around. We need a Princess Charming – a woman who rescues her man and slays the dragon instead of the other way round.
So many people think that if you’re writing fantasy, it means you can just make everything up as you go. Want to add a dragon? Add a dragon! Want some magic? Throw it in. But the thing is, regardless of whether you’re dealing with realism or fantasy, every world has rules. Make sure to establish a natural order.
Inside me, ‘Dragon Ball’ became a thing of the past, but later, I got upset at the live-action film, revised the script for the anime film, and complained about the quality of the TV anime. I guess, at some point, it became a work that I like so much that I can’t leave it alone.
I watched ‘Alien,’ and I watched ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,’ the Swedish version. I watched the original ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre,’ and I watched the Jessica Biel version and watched Jessica’s performance.
It’s been a thrilling journey – I have had to really learn that an orchestra is an entity – it’s a creature. I have been calling it the dragon and the conductor is the dragon tamer. And you just have to… ride and don’t let go and you will be fine.
Always speak politely to an enraged Dragon.
I’m Vietnamese and Chinese, and I am the year of the dragon in the Chinese zodiac.
I read a lot of the ‘Pern books’ growing up – basically up through ‘All the Weyrs of Pern,’ maybe a couple after that. As far as formative dragon influences are concerned, she’s probably one of the top ones; I know I read other fantasy novels that had them, but none particularly stick in mind.
Becoming a walking, dancing, fire-breathing lifestyle dragon is not something you can pursue overnight! It takes years of studying, living, and understanding the modern culture!
Bruce Lee has always been a hero of mine, and the choreography in ‘Enter The Dragon’ is amazing.
I’m a big fan of ‘The Last Dragon’ – Bruce Leroy and Sho’nuff – that’s one of my favorite movies growing up.
On ‘The Dragon Prince’, we wanted to push that even more to leverage the strengths of a CG and 3D pipeline. We wanted details on the character designs, in the costumes and sets, that you really can’t get in traditional 2D animation.
Why wouldn’t you be afraid of a Komodo dragon? It’s a dragon. It’s a dinosaur.
Look, part of it is that those credits have a list of names of people who work so hard on the show. They do amazing visionary work on ‘Dragon Prince’. And Netflix lets you skip those credits so easily. We wanted to give people a reason to enjoy the credits.
When you’re 14, anything with a sword and a dragon is pretty cool. But when you’re 21 and you’ve read 2,000 fantasy novels, you start to realize that some of those books, well, they weren’t really good. OK, let’s be honest. A lot of them were crap.
You can use martial arts to tell a different story. Ang Lee used martial arts in ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ to talk about love.
You love ‘Dragon Ball Z’ for what it is, but when you really start to look at it, you’re like, ‘What the hell am I watching?’ sometimes.
Having been a fan of ‘Dragons’ Den’ since it first aired in 2005 I was absolutely delighted and proud to have the opportunity of becoming a Dragon myself.
I’m not a woman in the ‘Den,’ I’m a Dragon, we’re all there to invest, it has nothing to do with gender.
I especially like the songs Hurry Up and The Curse Of Castle Dragon, and I often include them in my live show.
The car resembles a dragon fly or any other jumping animal that moves shorter distances in straight lines and then changes its direction at different points.
With her first Oscar nomination for her portrayal of Lisbeth Salander in ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,’ Rooney Mara gave fashion fans a new Gothic-chic muse.
Anything that has a dragon, a wand, pixie dust, fairies, magic, any of that, I love it. I’m obsessed with it, I will read it, I will watch it, I will commit it to memory.
I really like the Glycolic Cleansing Pads because they’re super easy. Sometimes it’s annoying to scrub your face with your hands, but these are just little pads, so I like that. I also really like the Kale Fix Moisturizer and Dragon’s Blood Fix Serum. The Dragon’s Blood is good for priming before your makeup.
If you want an MMO, there are plenty out there. The difference with a single player game is that in the same way you lose yourself in a good novel, you can lose yourself in a single player story. You see it in all these games, where you can fill your house with turnips or decorate your armour with a dragon skull.
The thing with ‘The Girl with a Dragon Tattoo’ is that is it’s like an Agatha Christie plot, and an investigating journalist is also a classic character.
‘The Blue Dragon’ uses very filmic language and involves a lot of technology. It is more cinematic than theatrical and was inspired by comic strips and graphic novels.
I don’t think ‘Enter The Dragon’ should ever be remade.
I was a tremendous fan of the original Kenneth Grahame short story, ‘The Reluctant Dragon.’
If I could, I’d love to make ‘Dragon’s Dogma 2’ – it’d be awesome.
The anime that inspired me the most and one that I probably have influence from is the very first series of ‘Lupin the 3rd.’ I’m very drawn to ‘Enter the Dragon’ and ‘Dirty Harry,’ too. They definitely inspire me.
I especially don’t like the graphic violence against women and children often depicted in novels such as ‘The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo’ and others. I’m not sure if it’s being done just to entertain or whether it really is necessary for the characters involved.
When the prison doors are opened, the real dragon will fly out.
It was really hard for them to intimidate me. They felt I was intimidating. One of the growers had a name for me: I think it was ‘dragon lady’ or something like it.
Yeah – I wanna be the sister to Khaleesi in ‘Game of Thrones.’ I wanna be a dragon lady; that would be really fun!
Bruce Lee was my inspiration when I was growing up and I used to watch ‘Enter The Dragon.’ No one could sit me still and I was non-stop hyperactive doing karate moves in the house.
So I don’t think one type of wrestling is right and one type of wrestling is wrong, and I’ve used that ability to unlearn what I’ve done and really go back and get back in touch with that Dragon Gate style since now there’s a lot of guys that can work with that.
I grew up on genre. If it had a dragon on the cover, I was interested. But horror, especially, really gripped me in its bony fist.
It is possible that mankind is on the threshold of a golden age; but, if so, it will be necessary first to slay the dragon that guards the door, and this dragon is religion.
If a shop has a neon Superman logo in the window, I will enter. If it has a neon Superman logo in the window, a Bat-symbol next to it, and a dragon under the eaves, I am already inside.
It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, if you live near him.
I was shocked when ‘The Hobbit’ ended where it ended. I wasn’t paying attention to what they were doing; I didn’t know they had another movie, and I couldn’t believe it was when the dragon came out.
When I got into the second half of ‘Dragon Ball,’ I had already become more interested in thinking up the story then in drawing the pictures. Then I started to not place much emphasis on the pictures.
The only part of ‘A Ghost Story’ that was reactionary was a temporal one. I had spent so much time making ‘Pete’s Dragon’ that I was really impatient and excited to make something new. When this project presented itself, I was ready to jump right into it. I started shooting two days after ‘Pete’s Dragon.’
I’d like to work with Florence and The Machine, Little Dragon, Frank Ocean, Miguel, Calvin Harris… there are so many artists and producers.
At the end of the 18th century, a young British explorer named George Bogle became one of the first Westerners to penetrate the mysterious and reclusive realm of Druk Yul, or ‘Dragon Land.’
‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ is not a direct-to-video, low-budget sequel: it’s a big film. And it’d be fantastic to have the opportunity to see it on the IMAX screens at the same time, and IMAX has made arrangements with us for that to happen.
In ‘Dragon Ball,’ the characters have a challenge. They know they have to push their bodies to the limit in their training so they can make sure to defeat their opponent, much like professional football players.
I am new school, but Ultimo Dragon taught me that wrestling is a fight. He taught me the importance of the fighting spirit in the ring.
We put in hundreds of hours at SpaceX, studied over 90 different kinds of training guides and manuals and lessons to learn how to fly the fly the Dragon and what to do in emergency situations.
