It's strange how nearly every ancient civilization had a dragon myth. The Chinese, the Persians, the Incas, the Greeks, the Norse, the Slavs, the Native Americans, the...um...Welsh.
With such ubiquity in antiquity, mightn't there be a common source? Maybe a creature like a dragon really did exist at one point in human history, lending to the creation of so many common myths.
Or maybe it's just some made up gibberish about a flying lizard who breathes fire and burninates the peasants.
Since we can't vote for Smaug or Trogdor, we're left with these two inept dragons.
But which is the more inept: the three-headed animatronic prop, or the smug dickweed sent to break up the international gum cartel?
It's a tough choice. But if you are brave, you can help rescue the princess from his scaly grip.

I have to go with Super Dragon, since Tom gave him a cool theme song.

One of my favorite characters is Ilya Mourmitz. I love how he can be such a happy person one second, and then get so ticked off the next. So I guess you can tell where my vote is going.

I like the Super Dragon but he's just like very other hero, slim, handsome and smooth. But a bearded heavy set old guy? Now that is someone I can relate to... Ilya you're my hero

Sword and the Dragon for me too.
I was never fond of the spy flick episodes, expect maybe Operation Double 007. But a Russo-Finish movie about a fat wiskery guy who fights against the mongols. Throw in a wind demon and a goofy looking three headed dragon, plus super riffing and you've got a winner.
The pants prediction scene alone left me on the floor: "It signifies the man had a large can. - Mike"

Super Dragon. I wish I lived in the time when I could wear a blond bouffant, girdle, and fake eyelashes, and still be taken seriously as a career woman. I mean, all those female spies were totally respected by their peers, right? Right?

I'm a nut for the spy movie genre, so I voted for the agent...though I wouldn't throw any of those big Finnish guys out of bed for eating mackerel.

When it comes to choosing between two episodes and one of them is a fantasy/fairy tale/mythology movie, I'd be very hard pressed to ever choose against the fairy tale. This is no exception; I gotta go with The Sword and the Dragon, even though I'll grant you that Secret Agent Super Dragon is a great ep.

I love the spy genre movies they did in general, and I love "Super Dragon" a lot - but it's really out of it's league here. The Sword and the Dragon is an almost flawless episode - very-good-to-great riffing, a movie that's actually pretty good yet still has tons of goofiness to riff on, and a great set of host segments - from the absolute peak of the show's run.
And probably my favorite riff of all time - "So they walked from China to Finland?"

I like the Sword and the Dragon better because I like the film better.
