Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBill Kroyer, the original director of this movie, intended to make a darker movie, more faithful in tone to the original book. Following the phenomenal successes of the movies of the Disney Renaissance, Warner Brothers, among many other studios, moved into feature animation, hoping to replicate similar successes with their own animated movies. At Warner Brothers' behest, Kroyer's vision for this movie was rejected, in favor of a more Disney animated musical movie-style, and the movie was put into production before the story was even finalized. The complex plot and dark nature of the novel, The King's Damousel, were replaced with several animation trademarks of the 1990s-era: musical numbers, a strong female heroine, a power hungry antagonist who wants to usurp the kingdom, a romantic subplot where the couple lives happily ever after, talking animal sidekicks, and family-friendly comedy gags.
- GoofsWhen Devon and Cornwall make shadow puppets on the wall, Garrett (who is supposedly blind), looks at the shadow puppets on the wall.
- Crazy creditsOn the On Demand print, during the closing credits, the offer for the movie's soundtrack on CD & Cassette, that is seen before the movie begins, plays again.
- Alternate versionsIn the version released on Netflix and YouTube, the Warner Bros. Family Entertainment logo is plastered by the Warner Bros. Television logo.

Nice Variation on Old Legend
I caught this film on video because the trailer wasn't too good. But it did have Eric Idle voicing Devon so I gave it a chance. I loved it. The dragon stole most of the scenes, but the other characters weren't bad either. Kayley & Garrett made a good couple and it was refreshing to see a romance that wasn't based on looks or riches. I wanted them to be together. Bladebeak was amusing and Aydon (voiced by the excellent Frank Welker) was good to watch. Rubere was deliciously villainous. The weakest characters were Arthur & Merlin but the film wasn't really about them so it didn't matter.
The best scenes were set in the Forbidden Forest where we witness all kinds of weird and wonderful flora and fauna. There are good songs (I Stand Alone, Through Your Eyes & On My Father's Wings especially.) I also cried at several points. Ignore the bad press. Watch it. 9/10
