* RelationshipWritingFumble: A lot of Natalie and Pete's interactions can give off some PuppyLove-esc romantic vibes, like for example [[LongingLook there's Pete staring at her for a good long while]] in their first scene together, him feeling her hair after she falls out of the tree and a few times she appears to lock eyes with him. Then there's her admitting [[PleaseDontLeaveMe she doesn't want him to leave]] which catches his attention. Again, this was largely unintentional.

* BrokenBase: Elliot's design, which forgoes looking like a conventional dragon and more like what could be described as a furry half-dragon/half-polar bear hybrid. While a number of people think it looks nice, numerous others (especially fans of [[Film/PetesDragon1977 the original movie]]) were expecting something that looked more like...well...a dragon, and think 2016 Elliot's design strays just a bit too far from his design from the 1977 film. The director's justifications of the design amounting to "[[ReptilesAreAbhorrent Reptilian dragons can't be cute and cuddly]]" aren't helping either.

Even Better Sequel would require the movie to be a sequel, not a remake. Some Anvils Need To Be Dropped would need to need to demonstrate that A: It is Anvilicious and B: The fact that it is anvilicious improves the story.
