I love that Hiccup is actign as Toothless' inept wingman lol.
Oi pun XD
Also...am I looking way too hard into things if it seems kinda...unfortunate that Drago, the more brutal, animalistic villain was voiced by a black actor from Africa while the more refined Grimmel is voiced by Salieri?
"If I reach for the stars, you can't hold me back"
Well, Toothless was Hiccup's wingman in 1. Makes sense that he'd return the favor.
The trailer.
Was.
Awful.
I am a massive fan of the franchise and it looks like 2... except weak. And uninteresting.
And I thought the Lego Movie 2 trailer was cringeworthy...

Your definition of cringe is terrible.
As well as awful of course.

Asgore Adopts Noelle
The Hunter is Eret, father of Eret, and one of the side plots will be about Eret, son of Eret, choosing between his old family and his new family.

Toothless' dorky mating dance was the best thing about the trailer imo ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}
Can you drop the word cringe? It's annoying and adds nothing to the discussion.
This is going to be so much fun.
That dance is so hilarious. I honestly wish Toothless to act like a dork and boy did they finally deliver!
Death is a companion. We should cherish Death as we cherish Life.
This just screams Shrek the Third.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
I'm not complaining. Just saying I have low expectations.
Stoik has some very ambiguous wording there for such a previously dragon-hating dude. "And by fight no more I mean KILL THEM ALL. You got it?"
Huh, one of those dragons appears to be Drago's Bewilderbeast. Same coloration and broken tusk.
It seems Hidden World is already out in Australia. Stinks how we are suppose to wait more than a month for it to come out here, but the early reviews makes it more exciting.
Oh no, it's gonna spoiler central!
This is going to be so much fun.
So far reviews are good.

Whelp, I haven’t watched the movie just yet, but I did just get through reading the summary for it on Wikipedia, and I gotta say that I am at a loss for how to feel about this movie
For one thing, while I do like the ideas behind the implied battles, the idea that Toothless is not in fact the last of his kind, Hiccup and Astrid finally getting married and having kids, as well as both Hiccup and Toothless’ families coming together at the end, the simple fact of the matter is that two major things most definitely bother me to no end no matter how I look at things: the fact that this film only takes place a single year after the last one and the apparent goodbye moment that I unfortunately saw as inevitable
This is going to be so much fun.
Just watched it. Why are people being down on this film? It's properly paced and really well told. Toothless is fucking adorable.
Also I didn't get the comment about the villain being lame. Gimmel is pretty much great.

The film is pretty good, but I have a lot of the same complaints as the second movie. Animation, visuals and overall story is fine, but something about the execution feels lackluster. One strength of the first film was that there were mysteries (the green death) and big surprises (Hiccup losing his foot) that makes the film's overall narrative richer. With this film there isn't really any surprises, and it feels like it takes a long time to get where they want to be.
The villain isn't bad, but like Drago in the second film is a dark counterpart to Hiccup but does nothing with it. The dragon slayer armada in general is pretty underdeveloped, unless I'm missing something from not watching the series. It does feel more like the third act of a much larger story we didn't get to see.
I just watched it tonight. I have mixed feelings about this movie on one hand the animation is gorgeous, Hiccup and Astrid's relationship is adorable as was Toothless and the Light Fury's interactions. I also liked the side characters interactions for the most part. My main problem I have is with the plot point that dragons and humans have to stay separate.
Considering the events of this film, the previous films, and the animated series this does not make any lick of sense to me. Humans and dragons were shown time and time again to be great forces working together and I doubt Berk could be beaten by any contemporary human army that doesn't have modern dayish guns and planes.
Literally the only way another group of people can beat Berk is with training a bunch of dragon riders themselves which the movie seemed to be setting up with the warlords (whom were woefully underused characters I might add as another negative, despite the interesting character designs and being representative of other cultures) but never went further on or somehow developing some technology that can counter dragons which the film doesn't really show to much of either barring with just Grimmel whom I doubt could kill a full dragon rider army alone.
This isn't even getting to the fact that Toothless is a Night Fury whom could command other dragons and could of also been protected by a Light Fury. So why exactly are they unsafe and need to split again really? I also don't think Oh maybe we can reintroduce them to the world again after awhile thing would work either as humans would likely have better technology then to fight dragons and would see some fabled unknown creatures appearing out of nowhere to be scary threats.
Bleh, I can see what the film was trying to go for with the plot but the execution of it was done badly. I think if they showed humans starting to develop more anti-dragon technology barring traps that would only work once and Grimmel's knock out poison darts then that would of justified the dragons separating from Berk disappearing off to the Hidden World more.

Funny but not helpful
It felt less like a logical development and more like they wanted to conclusively end the story and put the toys back in the box

It looks so beautiful. My girl Astrid grows ever more gorgeos. Also, Damn, Hiccup! Dat beard.
Boy, Hiccup's gonna teach Toothless how to flirt. God help us all.
