Why You're Wrong About Dragons In Modern Culture

Brace yourselves, for we are about to unravel the truth about these majestic creatures.

Now, let's delve into the captivating universe of dragons.

A Flawed Interpretation: Kung Fu Panda's Dragon Dilemma

Our adventure begins with a classic from the world of animated cinema, "Kung Fu Panda." At first glance, it may seem like a delightful tale of a rotund panda voiced by the legendary Jack Black, but there's a catch. In the movie, Master Turtle is about to select the next Dragon Warrior. However, there's a glaring plot hole. None of the characters in this scene are actual dragons. How can you have a Dragon Warrior without a dragon?

To add to the chaos, when Po is chosen as the Dragon Warrior, it all goes downhill. He doesn't magically transform into a dragon, as one might expect. No, Po uses his newfound power as a fursuit to distract his enemy, Kai. This revelation unveils an unsettling truth: furries exist in the multiverse. Brace yourselves, my friends; we're in for a bumpy ride.

Bartok the Magnificent: A Transformation Mishap

Our next stop is the 1960s feature-length film, "Bartok the Magnificent." It falls into the category of talking animal movies, similar to the timeless masterpiece, "Garfield 2: A Tale of Two Kitties." Everything seems fine in the Kingdom of Far Far Away until Ludmiller, a supporting character, drinks a magical potion meant to revive Shrek's late wife, Fiona.

What follows is a scene that has left the world agog – a transformation scene. Ludmiller's breasts undergo miraculous enhancement, sparking worldwide discussions about "good boob representation." But, dear reader, there's a catch. Ludmiller is not a dragon, and she possesses no wings for quick travel. So, we must lamentably grade Ludmiller with a one out of ten for her portrayal in modern media.

Humans as Dragons? Benidorm's Dragon Dilemma

In the hit TV show "Benidorm," we witness something truly peculiar. A typical British family from Manchester goes on a holiday to France every year. This portrayal is utterly unrealistic, and the show seems to lack integrity and value. But there's a moment that sent shivers down my scales.

During an arm wrestling competition at the Solana Hotel, Jeff, a character, asserts that he is a dragon, only to be taunted as a "big baby" by another character, Potato. While this might seem like a breakthrough, there's a significant issue. There's no transformation scene to validate Jeff's claim, and he loses the fight. If he were truly a dragon, the battle would have ended in a fraction of a second.

The Correct Way to Portray Dragons in Modern Media

After our exhilarating dragon ride through modern media, we arrive at a crucial juncture. Dragon culture's representation is in shambles, and it's high time we address this issue. The burning question is, can we set it right? The answer is an emphatic YES! Here's the golden rule for portraying dragons correctly:

Uniqueness: Dragons are unique creatures, and their representation should reflect that uniqueness. Each dragon should have distinct traits and characteristics that set them apart.

Now, my dragon-loving friends, it's time to spread the word and change the narrative. We have the power to create a world where dragons are portrayed as they truly are – magnificent, awe-inspiring, and one of a kind.
