a flight with dragons

over the last few years i've found that i am annoyed with hollywood's portrail of dragons in movies. specifically their faces. for a simple description, i find them too human. they almost look as if it's just a human face with scales. so far to date, the movie with the best dragon-faces and dragons over all, has been "Reign of Fire" i was really glad to see that they not only showed some chemistry behind dragons (such has the fire breathing mechanism) but also the faces, while still a little weird to me, are the best from everything else i've seen. i'm aware that this movie is several years old, but randomly, we got in the mail from netflix, so we just watched it.
other movies that i really liked how the dragon looked, is really only one other movie. spirited away. i love that movie not only for it's good story, characters, and amazing artwork, but for how they drew their dragon. to me, dragons faces should resemble either more of a dogs face, or something reminiscent of a....i just forgot the name, but a certain dinosaur...it's some kind of raptor but that's my version.

You drew a dragon right below the assignment in math class.... Did you do this while I was throwing spit-balls at you?
