It has come to my attention that... Oh screw the formalities, the teaser/trailer for How To Train Your Dragon 2 came out a few days ago!!! If you liked the first movie, you should watch it and if you don't then what the heck is wrong with you? I'll try to post a link once I find the URL, but until then just search" httyd 2 trailer"on YouTube. Its almost impossible to click the wrong one cuz every nerd-boy and his brother have posted a copy. I downloaded it and watched it like fifteen times!
PS: this thread is also a place to comment on the video for people like me who don't have a YouTube account!

Re: HTTYD 2
This is just awesome! I loved the first movie in this series. I wont spoil this by watching the trailer, so I don't know what it's about. But I'm sure they'll nail it this time too.
The only thing I have to complain about, something I always complain about, is dragons that don't have the wing size required for them to fly. I have yet to see a mainstream dragon that has, so I guess I might just be a bit biased towards the huge size (see my recent artwork).

Re: HTTYD 2
I've yet to actually watch it. Maybe when my parents bring my TV down when they come to see me at university...

The first season's on YouTube and a bunch of anime sites. If you're quick you can find the premier on YouTube before the copyright people start deleting stuff.

Re: HTTYD 2
I just found out that the release date for HTTYD 2 is July 2014. The wait is killing me. But I'm determined not to spoil the movie at all.

It doesn't spoil anything important, but it does make the wait harder.

Re: HTTYD 2
TBH the rules of thread necromancy hardly apply when a post can be dead for over a year and still be on the first page.
The first HTTYD both disappointed and cheered me. I was convinced before watching it that it was going to be a colossal waste of my time, but my ex got it for me as a present so I watched it with her.
What I was afraid would happen but DIDN'T:
* Dragons would be cute cuddly little pets without any danger to them.
* They would be able to talk but say really retarded stuff.
* They would be *MAGICAL* *glitter dust flying everywhere*
What I was afraid would happen that DID:
* Wing size would be screwed up. Toothless was pretty spot on and the whole tail thing was cool, but *SPOILER ALERT* the end dragon made me cringe.
* Dragons would really just be misunderstood and everyone would just be friends in the end.
What happened (for better or worst) that I did NOT foresee:
* That many different types of dragons in one area. (How do that many apex predators live off of one village's livestock?)
* Why Vikings? I know Scandinavian mythology has draconic elements, but for a lot of those designs I would have gone with a Germanic or British setting.
I did like the analysis of flight mechanics and such, was honestly surprised to see a discussion of dragon aeronautical function in a children's movie. Also liked that while the protagonist was initially presented as a weak, scrawny nerd, the movie did not see him suddenly shed that image and become a strong, buff hero; he prevailed by being both kind-hearted and as much of a nerd as possible. I'm kinda tired of movies portraying nerdhood as a bad thing that the hero has to overcome.

Re: HTTYD 2
I'm excited for the movie as well...
Though I might want to mention that there is a series of books that you could read that are similar/related to the movie and series.

Re: HTTYD 2
The HTTYD book is different from the movie. They took the movie in a whole other direction. But the book is enjoyable on it's own.
I went to see HTTYD 2 this past Friday. I won't say much about it until I know y'all have seen it too. It was good, but I honestly didn't think it held up to the first one though. My fiance disagrees with me though.
