5 Atrocities Netflix is cutting during the quarantine in June 2020
Thank the good people at Netflix for focusing on entire series that need the boot.
Oh, you thought watching the Tremors movies for 43-hours (approximately) would be horrific? Well, prepare for the full-on abortion of not one, not two, but three Dragonheart sequels. Yes, the campy movie with Dennis Quaid and Sean Connery voicing a CGI dragon, with sequels so horrific they deserve to be individually tallied.
First let’s talk about the original sequel. Four years after Connery and Quaid got the hell out of Dodge, the series was re-imagined because someone involved in production probably had alimony payments to make.
All I can say about this one is the CGI budget was considerably less, and the dragon sounded like someone doing a bad impersonation of Keanu Reeves in Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
The two other Dragonheart sequels deserve the axe just for having the audacity to continue.

To be quite honest, Dragonheart 3: The Sorcerer’s Curse is leaps and bounds better than Dragonheart 2: The Quest for Box Office Cash; so, chalk it up as a meager win. I mean, some of the actors’ facial muscles even move when they emote. Unfortunately, it’s just a How to Train Your Dragon rip off.
Dragonheart: Battle for the Heartfire, however, stars a guy who looks like Alfie Allen and has a dragon voiced by Patrick Stewart, even if he was probably folding laundry while recording his lines. Hard pass on both, unless you’re an extreme masochist.
