Everything GREAT About How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World!

How to Train Your Dragon 3 has come and gone and I can safely say it's one of my favorite animated trilogies ever. Going back through 1 & 2 for clips brought back a bunch of emotions. These are powerful movies. I don't know, maybe I just really want to fly. Here's everything right with The Hidden World!

Something you didn’t catch - Astrid wears a “headband” (can’t remember the correct name for it) throughout the three films. This headband in Viking culture symbolized a girls virginity, to be passed down after she marries. Her daughter is then wearing that headband in the final scene where her children are shown. SO much attention to detail!

That reverse shot of Hiccup letting go of Toothless is heartbreakingly beautiful

"There *were* dragons, when I was a boy."
When I first watched this, I actually felt my heart drop. That one line finally made me realize that this was it.. this was the last How to Train Your Dragon movie and there would most likely not be a series after this. The journey was finally over and I didn't know I wasn't ready for the end.

The creators confirmed that Grimmel is what Hiccup would be if he had killed Toothless.

2 major things I remember about this movie:
1: Sand animation
2: I didn't get to clearly see the last scene of the movie because of how much I genuinely cried from this movie.

I'm disappointed in you, you didn't win Tuffnut tying the ends of his hair together to make a beard

Httyd 1: fight against dragons
Httyd 2: fight with dragons
Httyd 3: fight for dragons

Best trilogy of my entire childhood will never forget this series...

14:17 That moment when Liry is looking down at hiccup smiling is like in the end of the first movie when Hiccup and Toothless saved Astrid from falling.

I like how Grimmel is a picture of how Hiccup would be if he killed Toothless

[riseupstepchickens]

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. I'm proud to say I grew up with these movies and if I have kids they're gonna know about them.

Fun fact: a group of dragons is referred to as a “thunder” because the sound of multiple dragons flying overhead would be similar to the sound of continuous thunderclaps due to the sound of their wings

I wish you talked about the development of Astrid and Hiccups relationship. The way they have handled their specific relationship is one of my favorite realistic ones I have seen in films.

[yingshuzhang]

if you look closely, Liry's eyes are the same color as Astrid's and Toothless's are the same as Hiccup's.

9:37 I love love LOVE that Toothless is a little awkward taking off. He's had Hiccup helping him fly for over a year at this point, so he'd be a little out of practice, not to mention that he can't feel the new prosthetic tail like he could his natural tail. So he's a little clunky and has to flap his wings a lot at first, but then it comes back to him easily since he's been flying for most of his life. Tiny little details like that make the HTTYD films so great.

My favorite part of Toothless's attempts to court the Light Fury is that they used actual bird courtship dances, like the Bird of Paradise.

Is no one really gonna talk about Hiccup and Astrid?

They are the epitome of a healthy relationship.
They're realistic (most relationship starts with a crush) and not your cliche love at first sight couple
They're a modern couple that we all can relate to
They're both equals and no one is controlling the other
They push each other to be better individuals
They don't let their relationship get in the way of important things (ie. Work, friends, family, Toothless)

They're one of the rare instances of an animated couple having a complete development arc. (Oh my god Hiccstrid babies!!)

And I really appreciate how Astrid wasn't made into a "just the main character's girlfriend" like some movies. THW really shows how intimate and loving their relationship is. Astrid is Hiccup's voice of reason and his number one supporter. He depends on her just like how she depends on him. When the villagers protested against him, she had his back. When he was lost without Toothless, she pulled him back and made him realise his true worthiness. She understood him and knew his flaws and insecurities, but remained loyal by his side.

Their relationship wasn't just pure romance, it was mutual partnership filled with love and understanding. Heck, they only kissed properly in the third movie during their wedding.

And don't get me started on the relationship advices I learned from these two

What I thought was amazing was how Grimmel is literally a version of Hiccup if he had given into the urge of killing Toothless in the first movie. I think Grimmel mentions it in the movie himself that he was scrawny unlike most vikings and realized his destiny after his first kill, which was a nightfury. He also depends on building things instead of physical strength much like Hiccup.

He literally IS Hiccup. Hiccup isn't facing a crazy psychopath when he first confronts Grimmel in his hut, he is looking at an alternate version of himself.

That's why I think he was such a poetically perfect villain for the final movie.

I like how when they enter the hidden world, despite the fact that Astrid and hiccups armor is made of dragon scales it still doest glow foreshadowing how humans don't belong there
