I listened to the entire original score to this film this morning... TOO GOOD! What was your favorite scene??

[@myrandomvideossss9504]

My favorite/funniest part was when the girl got stuck on the tree and he tried to help her and she swiped his hand away lol

[@EKJavi]

Legit been binging it the past few weeks, absolute banger

[@MarceloSilva-kp7mc]

My favorite is when hiccup close his eyes, 'Cause he's scared to be this close to a dragon, but he swallows his fear and go on, toothless notice his fear and chose to let him touch his nose It's such a poetic scene, the first friendly contact between two species that were suppose to hate each other, It takes place in ancient times but I feel it is SO ahead of so many people in our time

[@michaelweinacht7811]

John Powell's score is re-dic-u-lous, I'm amazed he didnt get the Oscar. Best scenes (driven heavily by the music) are Test Drive, Romantic Flight, and Forbidden Friendship.

[@blueeyed-b644]

If you really liked this one then I think you'll really like the second one too, I didn't really like the 3rd one but 1, 2 are the best In my opinion

[@Cat-vr5ss]

one of the things I love about toothless is how he's not one of the most visually frightening dragons but the mystery and differences that separate him from the rest are what really made him terrifying

[@phoebusapollo8365]

Also the fact that he’s literally a living fighter jet with enough firepower to create shockwaves and mushroom clouds. He’s not visually frightening, but in his 1st introduction he’s a speeding arrow destroying armament after armament.

[@dragonlynx9969]

Fun facts: Hiccup is also left handed in the books. He was probably one of the few if not the only left handed person in the village because it didn't seem like anyone knew. They all just thought he sucked at swordsmanship until he tried it with his left hand and became one of the best. Hiccup learns to speak to dragons in the books too but I think the way he communicates despite the language barrier in the movies and tv series is better in my opinion.

@@chocolatbownie35 I grew up on these beautiful, wonderful books by Cressida Cowell that tell the most amazing story and for that reason and many more I will love the books more than the films always, and the films set an incredibly high bar. A few words tho, going from films to books would be quite jarring, they train hunting dragons, about the size of a big dog, and dont get onto riding dragons till about book 5or6 (cant remember 100% its been a long time since I read them) It might be a bit of putting at first but if you truly value a great story and character dev stick with it. There are so many brilliant references to the books in the films and even some straight plot point lifts that are wonderful payoffs for the original book fans.

you missed the important part after stoic said you're not my son, where stoic the vast who breaks boulders with his skull was taken aback and shocked at what he said himself

Right, that's why Stoic stopped Hiccup and told him he was proud before he went to fight the Alpha. Stoic was mortified at what he'd said earlier, and wanted to make sure Hiccup knew how he really felt before it was too late.

I know it’s hard to say a character as prominent as Stoick is underrated, but he’s a character I can’t get enough of. He’s so complex, he genuinely loves his son and his people but he just has a hard time figuring out how to be a good father and balance that with chiefdom. He reminds me a lot of a Viking version of King Triton. And the sequel? He gets the best scenes of it.

6:46 According to the good old Google: "Toothless and Nightfury 's sound are emphasized, and they are created by mixing Humans, Elephants, Horses, Tiger and Cats sound together." I expected cats and maybe human sounds... but not the rest...

[@LG-io5uq]

And a fun fact I learned, they are also based on the parasaurolophus sounds from the jurassic park movies

[@Dell-ol6hb]

elephants is always the answer for large animals/creatures in movies because elephants are very loud and they can make super low frequency sounds that reverberate through the body so it adds a lot of depth and sense of power to a creature if you mix in some elephant sounds. For example most dinosaur sounds in movies and tv use elephants in the sound mix

[@LocalMaple]

3:10 In the book, Stoic decided that his first sound would be his name. I think he was hoping for Bellow or Guffah. But he gave a light hiccup. So he was named Hiccup Horrendous Haddock. 6:00 he only has a left foot . 26:03 Comedic rule of 3 right there.

my favorite moment is when stoick says "you brought him back alive" the way his voice cracks literally makes me cry every time

[@borostyanjaszkai4413]

A lots of people hates on Astrid and the others for how they treated Hiccup before he became good at dragon training but they had every right to hate him. The fans seems to forgot the fact despite his good intentions Hiccup did destroy the village more than a few times. He endangered them. And he was their next chief. A boy who didn’t take anything seriously, couldn’t fight, can’t follow direct orders and caused trouble every time he stepped outside was suppose to lead them, not only in everyday life but in a war against fucking fire breathing reptiles! And of course they started to like him when he became good at dragon training. As Hiccup said in the beginning of the movie, dragon killing was everything in there, because their lifes depended on it. Dragons attacked. They were forced to but that doesn’t matter. They were attacking them. It’s obvious they would defend themselves. Now when Stoick disowned Hiccup. Everybody says or do things they didn’t really mean when they are angry. It was not only about Hiccup lying, but also about denying his own people. When he dropped his helmet and said he wasn’t one of them, he practically disowned himself and since he got the helmet from his mother, he disrespected her memory too. He acted for good reason, but he also betrayed his whole tribe their traditions and history. I would also remind you that neither the Stoick nor the other Vikings saw how Toothless and Hiccup befriended or known that the dragons were to forced to attack them to get food. All they know is that the “unholy offspring of lightning and death” came out of nowhere blasted their arena and started fighting against another deadly fire breathing killing machine and that he was dangerous, so they need to protect their loved ones. In their eyes, dragons were still cruel, killing machines who had attacked them for centuries, burning their homes, wounding and killing their loved ones. Just as Stoick’s wife, Valka, was abducted by a dragon next to her a couple of months old baby, or as Gobber's hand and foot were bitten and not so long ago they wanted to kill Hiccup. All they could do all their lives was to kill or die, and they had been raised to do that since they were children.

[@roman_gulko3815]

And indeed it is! This comment is so good that just my respect! And I agree with everything you said. I've only recently started reading the books, although I've been a fan for a long time, and the attitude towards hiccup is shown quite well, especially in the first book. He's weak, skinny, can't do anything, and definitely has no leadership skills, so it's only natural that others just hated the very idea of ​​him being the next chief.

There are so many fantastic parallels in this movie!! My fav is Hiccup finding Toothless and saying “I did this.” VS Stoic mourning Hiccup’s death, saying “I did this.”

[@Vaimlune]

This is my favorite animated movie and my second favorite movie of all time. It's just so amazing and has such beautiful animation, beautiful writing, fantastic sound design, a phenomenal soundtrack, great characters and arcs, incredible world building, just so many amazing and dare I say realistic mannerisms and movements put into the dragons. I love how cat-like some of the dragons are. The sound design is what really just sends me over the moon. I absolutely love the various vocalizations of the creatures, particularly those awesome night fury roars (and the skrill from the series, which is one of my favorite dragons), snarls, little guttural purr-like noises, the lightning/fire blasts, smoke, wing-beats, breathing, the sound of feet or claws or a tail dragging, and of course environmental sounds. Everything just sounds so natural and incredible and flows together perfectly with the animation and voice acting. I love how every dragon is unique, both is physical appearance, personality, and in the different sounds they make (varying from species to species), and being a descendant of vikings myself, the story and world building was just plain fun. I felt like I could be in a story like that, only I'm small and have floppy noodle arms, like Hiccup, so I'd have to figure out how to use things and the environment to my advantage.

Theme for left side: it’s toothless’s LEFT fin that breaks. There’s references to the “left hand side” throughout the film. At the end of the movie, it’s Hiccups LEFT leg that he loses. I firmly believe that the “left side” references were foreshadowing to hiccup losing his left leg.

When Stoick asked the village to hunt for the dragon nest early in the movie, he said:" we are Vikings, it's our occupational hazard", and no one agreed with him. When he said Hiccup doesn't have to go to the final fight, Hiccup said the same line on his own. It really shows that despite the dramatic difference on the outside, Hiccup and Stoick are the same on the inside, which also explains why they don't listen to each other, they are too stubborn. It costs Stoick his son's leg to listen to Hiccup, and you all know what it costs Hiccup to listen to Stoick in the second movie.

Toothless' roars/dive bomb noises come from big cats, elephant seals, horses, fighter planes and Randy Thom going into a room and screaming lmao The left side references are a reference to the directors' first film together, "Lilo and Stitch." Stitch was programmed to steal everyone's left shoe. They actually had to scale the Red Death to make her fit, same with the Zippleback. They used a old ass software to animate the film, called Emo. It crashed when more than one character on screen. This is the only series where every film was made using a new software at DreamWorks. They went from using only a few dragons at a time, to hundreds and thousands on screen in the third film. They even altered Toothless' model slightly since the model for the first film was a nightmare to work with. The changes are so subtle but just enough so they could work on him without going mad. Also, Stoick's bears so thicc they literally had a party when they finished animating him. Surprised you didn't mention the first flight!

That was right near the height of the modern 3D movie era, and this is the one non-gimmicky 3D movie I've seen that I think you are missing something if you don't see it in 3D. Mostly for the flying scenes, but also there's basically a cut scene with the Viking fleet crossing the ocean where I thought the 3D version provided a sense of scale that you can't get with 2D.

yah. story is sooooo well written. so many things so brilliantly set up and paid off. and the music is SHOCKINGLY good... this movie came out the same year as avatar so i saw both in the theater and both movies have a romance riding dragons scenes... this one blew avatar out of the fucking water... and the music played a huge part in that. but also the beauty of the shots in that sequence.... for me, this was like kungfu panda... i was just expecting meh another cartoon... and i was leveled by just how much care and attention they put into every little thing and how amazing the results were. total surprise.

11:54 that little hesitation was actually an animation bug but they decided to keep it since it added depth

The fact is all dragons voice makes by a mixture of all animals sound .

In case it wasn't mentioned in another comment there are two shows! The first one is called Riders of Berk and it takes place right after the first movie. It has two seasons of 13 episodes and you get to see the kids learn and develop along with their dragons. The second show is called Race to the Edge (it's also on Netflix) and they are like 17 or so in it so we see them as riders who have really come into their own and its amazing. If you were to watch the shows you can watch them after the movies but I think the best way is to watch How to Train Your Dragon then Riders of Berk then Race to the Edge and then the second and third movies.

It’s a complete GEM of a series

Toothless' noises were made by mixing elements of sounds from elephants, horses, tigers, cats, and a little bit of human vocalisation as well

"They steal your socks, only the left ones." This is some sneaky foreshadowing of the fact that Hiccup will lose his left foot at the end. Which by the way has some literary symmetry: Hiccup loses a part of his body just like Toothless did. And in some sense, it's meat to redeem Hicupp since he's the one who injured Toothless. Hiccup even joked about this in the second movie, "You couldn't save all of me, could you? You just had to make it even."

7:29 YES they used animal sounds for toothless and human sounds and kind of mixed together. The sounds are from Elephants, cats, horses Tigers and yes humans

I love How to Train Your Dragon. It's one of my favorite DreamWorks franchises along with Shrek, Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda, and The Croods.
