The "mama" dragon is actually the Bull Dragon. He goes around from egg nest to egg nest that the females lay, and fertilizes each nest so the eggs can hatch and, thus, produce more dragons.

Crap. I thought that was the mama dragon. Now I gotta look at the damn movie again.

Now, if you're going to say some silly shit like "the dragons fire is hotter/more powerful" than a napalm and a M.O.A.B., may I remind you of the scene where Gerard Butler dies and the the main dragons fire isn't hot enough to melt an iron door.


I wasnt going to say anything of the sort, but thank you anyway stick out tongue

I know that Cloverfield survived those attacks but how do we know it was unaffected? Of course if the big monster gets ahold of the dragons they die instantly but because of their flight they could attack and retreat forever.

Someone made an analogy of this match, a bunch of green goblins vs the hulk. I think a more appropriate analogy would be fighter jets against a highly reinforced super tank with no homing capabilities.

The napalm strike didn't do anything, except knock it off balance for a few moments; it seemed fine after the M.O.A.B.

Regardless of how hard it would be for the monster to hit the dragons, the dragons can't do a thing to it, so it's either the dragons staying safely out of range or the monster manages to hit them like it did those helicopters and it wins. Either way, the dragons are useless here.

I just think that the combined heat of three dragons breathing down on cloverfield time and time again would put it down.

Also, i would argue that cloverfield survived the bomb at the end. I only argue this because the creature we see at the very end is not the creature we saw demolishing the city. The creature i saw tearing ass out of the city was hundreds of feet tall and the beast i saw looking over the camera at the end looked more like 15-30 feet tall.

I know it probably survived but that thing looked nothing like the thing that took the copter down to me.

Abrams already confirmed that there was only one monster and it looked different due to camera angles.

In any case, the Dragon's fire can't melt steel doors easily and can't kill guys in fire repelled suits, it's not going to kill Clovvie.

because of camera angles? hahaha, that's a bad excuse for, "we didn't realize how much we screwed up".

Yeah, the Dragons probably couldn't take the cloverfield monster down, not three, but they are still cooler...,give me that much, dammit. sad

It was alive and I believe the online hints/follow-up stated that it was still rampaging.

Make it 3,000 dragons, they still couldn't hurt it. It'd just be a VERY long fight.

People seem to be ignoring the fact that more fire does not equal= more powerful fire. The potency of fire does not stack.

Random Fact:
Did you know Gloves of Haste Stacks? 6 Gloves on BM = 90% increased attack rate! Crit, Crit, Crit.

The longer something is subjected to an open flame, the hotter it becomes. Only in the case I was referring to there would be thousands of open flames being thrown at Clover from nearly all sides, which would continue to heat Clover's body.

Except for the fact that the fight is in like, new York, which is like, surrounded by an Ocean, and Clovvie is like, an aquatic animal that can stay underwater for thousands of years.

lol.

lol.
1. A long long period of time? It depends on how much flame is being showered on it, in this case, thousands of beams of fire on about every body part. And Clover will never actually be able to hit one of the dragons.

2. So Clover runs away? Cause that is what that is. It is not like Clover can attack from under the water.
