Seriously the cartoon series takes place in the timeframe between the first and second movies. So if you want the story in chronological order watch the series before the second movie. Have been wanting some one to react to the chronological order for so long!

[@cyberrainofficial]

Also bat as that is somewhat what he was modelled after, also how he sleeps a lot of the time

[@kenvaill300]

The theory of how hiccup lost his leg is interesting. As he was falling, toothless had to grab whatever he could to save him. And doing that he ended up grabbing his leg and pulling him close to save him which ended up removing his leg. I actually really like that because not only are they both missing a part on their left side, they both caused each other to lose that part giving another reason why their bond is so strong and they always stay together.

[@robbieking4070]

I agree with the idea of Toothless unintentionally biting his lower leg off in order to shield him in time from the flames.

[@gayandeuropean4394]

I really appreciate that even before Stoick apologized, you could see him stagger at the realization of what he'd said!

[@impishtwink8144]

not enough people notice this tbh.

[@samuelvincent557]

Agreed. Especially what him saying that meant to them. Names like Ericson or Peterson mean, literally, son of Peter or son of Eric. So Hiccup could have been Hiccup Stoickson. But when he said he wasn't his son, that means he can never claim his Father's lineage which not only is a huge loss in this life, but when he dies, he would not be welcome at the table of his ancestors in Valhalla. It would, also, mean for Stoick that he has no heir and his own bloodline dies with him. It was, quite literally, one of the worst things he could have said to Hiccup.

[@jesuschristbutafab9923]

Fr, the look of regret and even fear in his eyes is so great. The look of "good Odin, did I just say that to my son???"

[@CameronSnep]

Random fact: Toothless' fastest ever recorded speed was approximately 950+mph, measured by the supersonic "mach cone" surrounding his body in the short clip. That is faster than a modern fighter jet's cruising speed. Also, Toothless is the only dragon in the movie to use an acetylene-oxygen charge to create 'plasma blasts' rather than the red fire other dragons use. For reference, plasma can reach up to 17,500° fahrenheit, whereas the red flames used with the monstrous nightmares tops out at a little under 2,000°

[@verda3665]

Stormfly also has a really hot flame supposed to be the hottest with her magnesium fire, 3100C /5610F

[@verda3665]

Acetylene oxygen also burns around 3100F heath tho

[@jasmineelizabethsanchez9754]

Fun fact there was a bunch of debate among the animators on whether to model the dragons' behavior (toothless, more specifically) on cats or dogs. They eventually decided on a mix of both and some other larger animals as well

[@davidhansen9792]

The other is horse

[@robbieking4070]

I personally lean more towards cats as their inspiration with how they chase lights; have an attraction for catnip like grass; love fish as their favourite food; and even their sounds are similar to purring.

Toothless is a cat, Stormfly is a parrot (Astrid dragon), Hookfang is a crocodile (Snotlout dragon), Barf and Belch are snakes (Ruffnut and Tuffnut dragon) and Meatlug is a bumblebee (Fishlegs dragon). I mean, all the dragons species look like and all act like a particular animal. Love this movie so much❤

[@jfb173jb]

Meatlug is kind of a bumblebee and dog. Especially when you get into the series. Also Hookfang is a bit like a cat himself with how he treats Snotlout. And I'd say Toothless is a mix of dog and cat because he's got a lot of the dog loyalty and puppy like mannerisms.

[@lotusforestdragoness7707]

@ Well, I was talking about their design and their behavior, but they all have some cats and dogs behaviors because it’s the animals that people know the most.

53:12 they NEEDED a dragon to safely navigate to the island with the nest, otherwise they might just end up sailing into a hotspot near it filled with dragons, if you noticed when Toothless kept turning his head on the boat THAT'S "him" navigating the safe spots, since he's done it before since "HE'S" a dragon, he has knowledge🧐💭💭.....

Which implies Night Furies have a more intelligent side to them than other dragons as they seem to attack from afar and keep to the shadows so no one can identify them and end up knowing their weaknesses. Thus the reason why “avoid at all costs”.

[@dyproxus1806]

1:04:54 Actually his leg is gone because Toothless had to bite into him at the last second to pull him close in time. He clarifies in the next movie when talking about how he took off Toothless’s fin. “We’ll, he got me back in the end.”

[@The_Entity404]

he also says "you couldn't save all of me" which could easily refer to the fact that he couldn't save all of hiccup from all the fire but imo toothless had to bite his leg but what made his leg a lost cause was that bite plus the burns from the fire

[@verda3665]

The reason the shots go so hard is because Roger freaking Deakins worked on the cinematography. Same guy who worked on Sicario and Blade Runner and No Country for Old Men. He's literally a legend in the industry for his beautiful camerawork.

[@Bexevan]

Fun fact: If you watch closely when Hiccup falls into the fire and Toothless goes after him, he stretches his first legs to grab him but his head was even close to Hussups limbs. In that case, Toothless most important thing was to save Hiccup and I think the only part where he grabbed him first was his leg so he accidentally chopped down the boy's leg just like he lost his tail wing by Hiccup

[@PepperPlaysStuffs]

If you wanna go all out: How To Train Your Dragon Riders of Berks (TV series) Defenders of Berk (TV series) Race to the Edge (Tv Series) How To Train Your Dragon 2 How To Train Your Dragon: The Forbidden World That's the entire series and story of Hiccup and Toothless. Number 4 is a touchy subject because the third movie rounded things out nicely and ended the trilogy.

[@connorr8071]

Just so you know, there are actually a couple TV series and TV shorts that happen canonically between this and How To Train Your Dragon 2. I'd personally recommend watching through those as well, even if you do so after the second movie. Most of them (especially the series) are still worth a watch. Also, reaction videos to them are sadly rare since most reactors don't pay attention to them, choosing to only do the movies, so it would be great to see you guys react to them! They are as follows: Legend of the Boneknapper (1 half-length episode) Book of Dragons (1 half-length episode) Gift of the Night Fury (1 full-length episode/Christmas special) Dragons: Riders of Berk (20 Episode Season) Dragons: Defenders of Berk (Season 2 of "Riders of Berk") Dawn of the Dragon Riders (1 episode special) Dragons: Race to the Edge (6 seasons of 13 episodes) Most people end up watching the second movie before these, but the three series explain the big gap between the first and second movies. Out of the three series, I'd say Race to the Edge has the most effects that you can directly see the effects of in the 2nd movie, but they all have at least some impact.

[@samfisher6606]

Im so glad you reacted to this. This movie and this series are some of my all time favorite movies. Not only that, but the trilogy is in conversation for the greatest trilogy of all time. I also recommend the two or so series that fill in the gaps between the movies. I also recommend going through to look at all the fan theories. They are super fun and interesting. And the director of the animated trilogy just announced they are doing a live action remake and he will direct. I think thats the "HTTYD 4" you mentioned at 1:50. The score is perfect!

The BONDING MOMENT is when Hiccup is drawing Toothless and Toothless tries to do the same with his drawing of Hiccup. Hiccup's attempts to avoid stepping on the lines on/in the shorefront are what lead his footsteps toward where he stands directly in Toothless's personal space. THAT is when they finally start making progress toward understanding each other.

[@PrimRooks]

This film still has what I consider the one of the best scores of not just the HTTYD trilogy, but also modern film scores as a whole. With its use of distinct, beautiful leitmotifs for each major character and the expressive orchestration that shines in the no-dialogue scenes, it’s some of John Powell’s best work, one that I used to listen to on rotation when I was in high school.

funfact, the red death (the giant dragon king/queen) was originally aquatic in the book. it looked like a living mountain of coral. in fact, one of the sub species of the death dragon family is the purple death, which was an aquatic varient. this varient appeared in one of the mobile games. also, notice this red death is old and wounded. it's wings are torn and it's horn (notice at at the nose) is broken. a fully healthy one has a proper horn and large wings. the red and green death both reside in volcanos.

[@krstygianheart]

I’m a year late cause I just found you guys, but one of my favorite things is you can see dragons true nature the whole time during this movie. Hookfang (the red one that sets itself on fire) first tried to escape the arena and when he realized he couldn’t, *then* settled on Hiccup. 48:23 Here, when the Vikings attack their nest, the dragons don’t attack, they just flee. The only reason they kept on attacking Berk was because it was close and full of food-food to feed to THEIR queen so THEY could survive. Not for themselves. Attacking others was to make sure they got what they needed, and insured (ish) their survival. I was raised on this movie and love it so much, lol.

[@babieangeljeno1656]

What I love about Toothless and Hiccups' bond is they connect so much that Toothless understands and can sense Hiccups' emotions easily, also the fact that everytime someone doubts or has something against Hiccup, Toothless just wants to hear an apology from them like when Astrid and Stoick said "Sorry" to Hiccup, that's when Toothless calmed down.

Genuinely, since the first time I saw this movie a decade ago, it still remains as my favorite animated movie of all time, if not probably one of my favorite movies of all time.

This is just my opinion, but the reason why lots of people (including me) enjoy watching reaction videos is probably because it's like watching your favourite films/videos with your friends.

And then there are the short movies - Gift of the Night Fury (set just after movie 1), Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (same as GOTNF), Book of Dragons (same again), Dawn of the Dragon Racers (set just before Race to the Edge), and Homecoming (set . . . sort of during the 3rd movie, but I can't say more without spoiling so you'll have to wait to find out lol). I know you probably won't want to watch them all, I get that it's a lot to get through; however, I do recommend at least watching Gift of the Night Fury, as the events are (briefly) referenced in the 3rd movie, and IMO it's the best of the short movies. - I definitely agree with the assertion that this is one of the best animated movie series ever (can you tell I'm a big fan lol). - I can't believe I never heard about the 2025 movie omg, you confused me when you read that out haha. So it's not HTTYD 4, it's a live action remake (but being made by the original movies' director, Dean DeBlois). Aaaand now I'm excited XD it better be good. - "Ope, that's a big boy!" Actually, that's a big girl 😊 she gets named Meatlug. - I adore Toothless' expressions and gestures, like when he motions for Hiccup to eat his half of the fish 😂 - It's a little . . . abstract, lol, but Toothless actually drew a picture of Hiccup 😊 24:51 on the bottom left you have Hiccup's mouth, open in an O shape, then diagonally you have his nose, and his eyes, and floppy hair around it all. - Yeah, that's a little trend with Toothless in this movie. If you wrong Hiccup, he will hold a grudge like there's no tomorrow; but if you apologise, then he's like "okay, we're cool now" XD - I believe the shadow we saw in the fog was a Monstrous Nightmare, not the queen. - It's never explicitly said exactly how Hiccup lost his leg. The most likely reasons are a) as you said, it was burned beyond saving in the fire from the explosion, b) either when they hit the Red Death's tail or when they hit the ground, his leg was severely crushed and was un-saveable, or c) a favourite among the fan theories, while Toothless was trying to save Hiccup as they fell, he couldn't quite reach him in order to protectively wrap himself around him, and he had to bite Hiccup's leg to bring him closer.

So the scene where Stoick says to Hiccup, "You're not my son," was basically Stoick disowning his own child, and i believe in viking culture that's also banishing the child from the village so everytime I hear Stoick say that I feel bad for Hiccup

[@de606returns6]

This Movie along with Megamind and Shrek are among my favorite movies

31:15 Coke was invented in 1886 but the cocaine ingredient was removed in 1903, and has remained that way ever since.

[@BuddyRIP]

This movie, hell the whole trilogy, is up there in some of my favorite movies. They're just so good in so many ways. There's a reason it has such a devoted fan base

[@onetrackmind3558]

The Red Death (the queen) has a semi mind control roar. Which is why Toothless started to fly to the nest.

[@TheGallantDrake]

Viking longboats are famous for having a very shallow draft, which means they can raid in surprisingly shallow water. In 845 a Viking fleet sailed up the Seine and laid siege to Paris. PARIS! Who expects to get raided by seagoing bandits in Paris?!?!?

[@charlieg.n6625]

I love how every person who watches these movies thinks it's Hiccup's mum's actual chest that the hat is made out of XD but breastplate is a piece of armor that are used

[@RasmusVJS]

I remember being really into the different dragon types and the biology of them when I was a kid.

[@zandylovesrisk]

So when they show the Vikings sailing into the fog, it wasn't the Green Death(queen bee) dragon that attacked them but a scattering of the ones that had been raiding their village. They were protecting the hive. The reason they were able to finally get to the Nest was because Stoick was following Toothless' movements as he knew the path to get there. it is theorized Toothless bit Hiccup's foot off in his attempt to grab and protect him. Also Toothless didn't unveil Hiccup right away to make sure the vikings fears of dragons was gone. See that Stoick didn't try to attack Toothless or anything once he believed he died.

[@mr.papaveraceae3009]

This just makes me want to watch the movie. I too don't remember all this at the beginning. It's been a long time. I just remember the cute shots of Toothless.

[@snowtigress7744]

This movie was one of my absolute favorites growing up. I still remember playing the soundtrack on constant repeat just to get through late nights writing college papers. Unfortunately, such occupation of my time meant that I was never able to watch the third one when it came out. And now I don't know where I can find it without renting or even buying it.

This is one of the best examples of what a 'family friendly' movie should be, not driveling not watered-down not pandering, but a rollorcoaster the family can enjoy together.

[@oliweq_8501]

Theres also series based on this trilogy called ,,Dragons Riders: Race To The Edge" and it include a lot of new dragons such as those that were introduced in Dragoon Book at 17:14. I hope you'll watch it🎉🎉

[@Someone-wx9lq]

I definitely recommend watching the series it's really underappreciated and actually nicely expands on world building that couldn't fit in the trilogy

[@sethgibson5148]

So Hiccup is his name, and he's named that because he is the smallest person. That's also not just a name for people, it's also used for anything else that is considered the weakest and smallest. Like the runt of a pack of wolves could be called Hiccup.

[@kinganthony5885]

13:05 typical brutal honestly 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

[@kaykaylit4712]

58:04 hiccup foot did not get burned off, but it was Toothless that accidentally chomped/bite it off when he was saving him

I’m happy y’all are reacting to this trilogy. I have all three films, & to me this is absolutely the most perfect trilogy from Dreamworks.

"It's a fathers job to listen to his son without ever letting him know he's heard a word." not in the movies but I love this quote

[@Elipson52008]

something about that just doesn't seem right. wouldn't it be better to avoid the mind games all together?

[@rompevuevitos222]

That just sounds toxic A father's job shouldn't have to include keeping a facade of not caring about what their kid has to say.

[@adamhinton3441]

I agree with both of you but in the context of the moment it was funny though this was probably not the movie to bring up this quote

[@Frightknight15]

This movie/trilogy is so F'ing good😢😢

[@zoeschmitt1624]

The dragon shadow we see the first time they sail into the fog is from a Monstrous Nightmare (the set-themselves-on-fire bois), not from the big guy

[@NihinduAngana]

not only three are 3 movies there is also a tv series which shows the events between 1st and the 2nd movie... so if you guys can please do check out the tv series Dragons/ Race To The Edge before watching the 2nd movie!! Thanks as always for the great video :) being following you guys through Ben 10!! Ben 10 Avatar The Last Airbender HTTYD!! My favs!!

[@saraicano5248]

They've already seen the 2nd and 3rd movie over on patreon but they did mention that they are open to reacting to the TV series if enough people want it and if they think it will do good

[@EthanMallonee]

I definitely want that!

[@samuelvincent557]

Love your reaction to this movie. It is a favorite I still like to rewatch every so often. One of the things about when Hiccup and Toothless grabbed Astrid and flew her around to shake her up. Consider that flying, gliding, bungee jumping, and skydiving are kind of taken for granted by us. But for someone back then, they probably spent their whole lives never being more than a few feet off of the ground. The highest anyone of them, probably, ever got was climbing a tree. So for them to be flying high enough to not only touch the clouds, but to be able to look DOWN upon a mountain would be unthinkable and terrifying. For one of them, that would, likely, be like seeing from the vantage point of the Gods.

[@mariachatzisteliou7734]

Hiccup: "Never engage this dragon and hide" Sortastupid: "kill on sight 🤓🤪" 17:58

[@KevinVideo]

I actually forgot that David Tennant is in this. It's fitting as he actually does all the audio books for "How To Train a Dragon".

[@SpeedySpringTrap]

Fun fact for this movie when toothless is about to press on hiccups hand he hesitated that was a animation motion error and it was left in cause it made it a more emotional scene

[@thefrickenchicken1417]

Edited: They changed the thumbnail to a screenshot of the first movie, originally was an image from the third film. Finally my OCD can relax. If you care at all to read what my original comment was, I moved it down a bit so people won't get spoiled. Original: Your thumbnail is from the third film. Yes really, I can tell just from looking at it. If you think I'm full of it then I can tell you exactly which scene it is. When Hiccup gets the new tail wing on Toothless so he could fly on his own.
