zoë rose bryantJun 9, 2025I liked the part when they took the computer generated dragons from the original and turned them into computer generated dragons
𝙨𝙖𝙢𝙢𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙩Jun 11, 2025It’s not just that these type of films devalue animation (which they do, despite also relying on it heavily), it’s that they’re also actively devaluing the experiences that audiences deserve. Recycling the same stories over and over and over again puts us in a cultural…

8.4 - This is one of the hardest to rank movies I’ve seen in a loooong time. Did we need it? No, the original is a masterpiece, & it’s almost a shot for shot remake. Did I enjoy it? Absolutely, the original is a masterpiece & it’s almost a shot for shot remake. I’ve wondered with almost every…

Not nearly as bad as the disney live action, but your better off just watching the animated movie.

Austin Kelley dislikedHow to Train Your DragonWhile I do appreciate the how shot for shot it is, there’s no chemistry, no personality in this movie. Didn’t feel any sort of connection between Toothless and Hiccup, any of the Viking kids, or Hiccup and Stoic. Gerard Butler is always a plus though

zxki is "meh" onHow to Train Your DragonI understand shareholders and executives do the most to minimise risk, but it's a big-budget live-action dragon movie.

I remember seeing the animated film in theaters 15 years ago as a teenager and to come back to see it again as an adult in live action was incredible, it was refreshing and gave nostalgia, love this movie and your family will too! can’t wait for the sequel.

By preserving the core narrative, characters, and emotional arc of the original, the live-action remake remains true to its roots. Though the cast is new, the heart of Hiccup and Toothless’s friendship still soars.

The script, the gags and the action remain mostly intact. But this time around, real actors and sets become deadweight to a story that soared in larger-than-life animated form.
