Scout and I were watching the movie Dragon Hunters...and the now grown up dragon hunter has a flashback to the time when the dragon called the World Gobbler destroyed his home and killed his parents...

...as a frightened child he pulls out his mother's knitting needles...

...draws a picture of the dragon and stabs it in the eyes with the needles...

...then back to the 'present' where he is a grown up dragon hunter - he pulls the needles from his pack...
...and uses them to slay the dragon...
...anywhooo - a pretty good movie which was apparently much more popular in Europe than it was in the US...I wonder why...

love, k
how funny. we just watched that movie last week, only because we found it on netflix though. i had never heard of it before that.
How funny! Don't mess with me while I'm knitting... : )
Dragons, tricky enemies but great and useful pets.
I would be so very interested to know if the writer or power behind the film had a much loved relative who knitted!
We almost rented it last night, but the girls picked Free Willy 4 instead. Not sure we ended up with the better of the two. :)
That is a weird use for knitting needles. Funny too that you saw it in a movie. MOM
i think my kiddos would get a kick out of this. :) we'll look for it on netflix.
(we just watched "how to train your dragon" - and loved that!)

my kids really liked this move too~
Finally, revenge for the knitters! Seriously, when I am walking alone in the dark city streets, I feel a bit more confident when I have some needles on me...
