Tom‘s (Jeremy Shada) discovery of some Tidal Dragons comes in handy when an out of control forest fire threatens the area. After chastising him for hiding things from the rest of the riders, Alex (Aimee Garcia) figures out a way to lead the dragons to the fire and help put it out before it reaches ICARIS. The smoke helps hide the dragons for the most part, but although the group manages to stop the fire their activity doesn’t go completely unnoticed. Along with the new dragons, “Downpour” also introduces a potential new adversary for the riders in the irresponsible Buzzsaw (Haley Joel Osment) who started the fire but blames the mysterious lightning bird he sees in the smoky aftermath for his own misfortune.

Phase Four, by far the most experimental and unpredictable phase of the MCU, continues with Thor (Chris Hemsworth) earning his fourth standalone film (moving him past his tie with Captain America and Iron Man). Writer/director Taika Waititi returns for a follow up to Thor: Ragnarok choosing to keep the same tone and humor of that film. If Ragnarok was a 9 on the wacky scale, Love and Thunder is a 12.

Dragons: The Nine Realms – Dragons of the Undead

“Dragons of the Undead” is all about getting the shyest member of Dragon Club some confidence as Alex (Aimee Garcia) is forced to step-up after her dragon Feathers is kidnapped by what the kids mistake for a crowd of zombie dragons. The truth to the dragons turns out to be far different that what appearance may suggest. The look of the dragons works, even if that means we get stuck with D’Angelo (Marcus Scribner) thinking he might be turning into a zombie in what becomes the episode’s running gag. Thanks to Alex’s quick thinking, Feathers is saved, and their work together helps uncover the true nature of the strange dragons.
