"There were Dragons when I was a boy" is the very first line of the How to Train your Dragon books, where Hiccup is narrating the entire story to his children.
And it is a great children's series by Cressida Cowell and I highly recommend the audio-books read by David Tenant. Very different from the movie but amazing just the same
I never even knew they had books this is so dope. I grew up watching this. It's cool to see all these adults still being able to watch it and feel the same way.
Some of us actually did grew up with the franchise, for me the tv series and the movies. I say the tv series because, even if the story and animation isn’t perfect, it shows the character personalities very well and see how the movies actually kinda link (even if some bits were left out), and you actually see them grow up between seasons (also since the tv series is canon, we technically did grow up with them).
It was nice until the last movie destroyed everything the previous movies worked for. The entire message was thrown away and in its place put the message "just give up when it's too hard" Toothless was no longer a friend in 3, they had to start making the characters treat him like a pet with no freedom. After all that gaslighting from astrid its no wonder hiccup thought he wouldn't come back and went there himself. All the progress he made was erased in an instant, and when the dragons come back next time people would have better weapons and most likely attack them because they knew absolutely nothing about them (the most recent series relies on lucky plot to avoid this). The ending of the last movie did nothing but destroy the goal hiccup had, when he hadn't even run into a wall. He went "wah there's always going to be someone super bad like this guy" and gave up when literally every big villain he encountered had some kind of obsessive beef with him or berk itself. In the end Grimmel won and achieved everything he set out to do.
Your should read the books then! 😀 Get more of the fun! Cressida Cowells 12 novels that are the inspiration for these films are great in themselves and tell another fun story. And for some extra fun, listen to the audiobooks narrated by none other than David Tennant! It's a different story of course but still great and loads of fun. 😃
When i watched it for first time i cried so hard. Such a great trilogy, all parts are amazing and creators knew when to stop making sequels. Great reaction
@@OfficialMediaKnightsYou guys really should watch the Various Tv Series. The Riders of Berk, and The Race to the Edge. There are also small mini movies that fill in the gaps. The animation for the various TV shows is also top notch, especially considering the smaller budget available. Enjoy.
My husband & I took our kids to see this in theatre in 2019, & our kids fell asleep while my husband & I sat there bawling like babies! It is such a bittersweet end to an amazing story!!
The ending made it feel like "oh yes, dragons are real, they're just hiding from the world" so canon not just in movies but also irl somehow. I love it.
That “save him” makes me emotional everytime matter a fact the whole ending of this movie always does! Absolutely adore these movies so much and the ending with all the kids! 😭
When Hiccup while making the new tail for Toothless, Astrid says “You tried this once before, he didn’t want it.”. Astrid was referring to the mini Christmas film The Gift Of The Night Fury where Hiccup made Toothless a new tail that didn’t require his saddle but Toothless refused. Grimmel is also a “What If” version of Hiccup if he killed Toothless in the forest in the first movie right then and there. You can definitely see the similarities between them. Both have a deeper understanding in dragons than anyone else, both are inventors and crafters. If Hiccup did indeed bring the head of a night fury to Berk, he would’ve been praised and thus could’ve gone on a similar character arc just like Grimmel. The death of Grimmel was literally foreshadowed at the beginning of the movie! When the riders get back to Berk after being sloppy at a mission, Valka says “Perhaps you rely too much on your dragons and not enough on one another”. Grimmel relied on his Deathgrippers to complete his objectives which caused him his downfall but the riders worked together without their dragons to take down the fleet.
Oh we gotta check out the christmas film you mentioned so we can understand these references! It's so cool that they showed the love and respect to include those references in the movies!
One thing that I believe the producers of this sequel did on purpose: Grimold's build is much like Hiccup's. Also, in case you missed it, he also said that he first caught a night fury when he was a boy and killed it. In other words, Grimold is Hiccup if he had chosen to kill toothless when they first met.
WOW, you guys resumed this trilogy a lot faster than I thought😂. Can’t say I blame you. One of those rare moments where a franchise comes to a wholesome ending without being dragged out for more than it needs to be
@@OfficialMediaKnights Especially when someone like me has sifted through the franchise, christmas specials, 8 seasons of TV, the payoff and easter eggs mentioned in this third and final film is even sweeter ❤
@@OfficialMediaKnightsthere are actual two holiday shorts. They are both good. One is between movie 1 and 2 and has the tail part. The second one is just before the epilogue of the third movie. It has the kids in it, very cute. You should give them a watch they are like 20 minutes.
There's also Snoggletog Log on Hulu! It's like a 20 minute thing where you're looking into Hiccup and Astrid's fireplace while stew is cooking, and occasionally different characters will come in the house and do something. There are some super cute moments with the baby Night Lights, Zephyr and Nuffink, the Light Fury, and Toothless is at the very end! I think that was an extremely last-minute project so none of the voice actors are correct except Craig Ferguson, but they sound OK. 😁❤️🐉
I don’t know if you guys noticed it but in the hidden world you can see 2 light furies next to each other and one is much bigger. This shows that light furies and night furies are 2 different species and not just colored differently. And in the hidden world you can see drago’s bewilderbeast with the broken tusk from the last movie.
One of my favorite film series of all time, of any kind. All three have great stories, characters, music, and beautiful visuals! I didn't want it to end, but it was such a perfect ending that I couldn't be sad about it. Thank you for covering this series, it was a wonderful journey!
Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet or if you two noticed it but at 42:25 when Hiccup lifted his hand from Toothless' head it was a reverse version of what happened when they first bonded back in HTTYD 1 Cause back then it was kinda like their first hello to each other in their relationship while here It's their goodbye because as easily as they can still visit one another, they'd have to do it discreetly because like Hiccup mentioned, not everyone is ready for dragons as well as not all dragons are ready for humans like shown in the part where Hiccup and Astrid visited the hidden world and got attacked by that big dragon but Hiccup couldn't do his usual thing to make it relax and accept them.
I cry every time I watch this movie. This trilogy is a 10/10, and this series is always going to be my favorite. Also, please watch the shows if you haven't already. The amount of new dragons and exploration in the world is worth watching. Great reaction, and keep up the work!
To clarify night furies and light furies are not the same species just similar,it is kind of like how tigers and lions are similar enough to reproduce but still different.
Kinda, but not exactly. Lions and Tigers are closely related enough to produce a hybrid, but those hybrids are infertile themselves. As much as the 9 Realms sucks, it does confirm that Toothless and the Light Fury are significantly more closely related. Both Light Furies and Night Furies are likely subspecies of a larger Fury species.
Aww, I always get so emotional in this movie! When they have to say goodbye to their beloved dragons it hits so hard- that is true love, to say goodbye to the dragons for their safety.
The thing about this villain is he's basically Hiccup if he followed through will killing Toothless. A man who hunts dragons not with intimidation or brute strength but using his head and technology.
A good message for all young people too and one I think is slept on a bit, is what it actually means to be a leader. Too often in Disney films the message is more about letting go, running away to tread your own path, doing what you really want to despite what others think, etc. this movie has all of that but then ties a bow of realism to it with the emotional complexities of love and loss and where determination really comes from in life. Such a good message for young men and young women.
Toothless can disappear like that too remember? That's exactly why no one knew anything about a night fury before Hiccup . I think he stopped doing it because his new tail could catch on fire. I think that's why he turned back to check . There's another small part . Sort of an epilogue. It ties up Hiccup & Astrid's wedding scene & the reunion scene .
These movies are so well made, and it shows the life journey of Hiccup and Toothless in a wonderful way. You just can't beat these films, or this story. Awesome final reaction to an amazing movie series! ❤
I think as far as trilogies go this was one of the best. When you watch this you are not audience, you are a Berkian yourself living the journey. One of the best accomplishments in cinema hands down. Next recommendation is Beautiful Mind. You two will go nuts for it.
I think what really hits me is that i can definitely see Hiccup becoming another version of Grimmel had he killed toothless. Think about it, he wouldve killed a night fury something that no one had seen on berk besides it blasting buildings and that validation from his father that he always wanted would encourage him to push harder to kill dragons and since he is already a master craftsmen you can only imagine how quick and efficent he would ve become turning hiccup into this dragon killing boogeyman
Well, Grimmel is Hiccup’s evil counterpart and an evil counterpart is the evil equivalent of a protagonist with similar skills and a similar background to the protagonist, but with small differences. Unlike Hiccup, who couldn’t bring himself to kill Toothless, Grimmel killed a Nighty Fury where it slept when he was young. After that action made him a hero in his village, Grimmel decided to kill every last dragon. Like Hiccup, Grimmel relies on his intelligence and his Deathgrippers whom he treats lap dogs and drugged them into obedience with their own venom. However, Hiccup learned to become more independent and not always rely on Toothless. Something that Grimmel never learned and it was one of the things that led to his downfall. Even though he never really cared about his Deathgrippers, Grimmel did relied on them so much.
I was 28 when I saw this and I as well as every other adult in the theater were crying their eyes out just as hard as the kids. There is no reason to not include the How To Train Your Dragon trilogy among the greatest movie trilogies of all time.
Not sure if you guys knew this, but when Astrid tells Hiccup you tried this before and he didn't want it, she was referring to the Christmas special Gift of the Night Fury that came out after the first movie. Hiccup made Toothless a new tail for their holiday called Snoggletog, because he felt bad that Toothless couldn't come and go as he pleases like the other dragons. Toothless loves to go flying every morning and every evening, and on their morning flight Hiccup lost his helmet. Toothless used the new tail and was gone for a few days, and when he returned he brought Hiccup's helmet back. The next morning they're about to go flying again, and Toothless got out the old tail they used to use and smashed the new one, showing Hiccup that he wants them to fly together. It's a really good short, and I watch it every single year around the holidays! I would highly recommend it if you guys didn't watch it! There is also a newer one called Homecoming that takes place before the epilogue at the end of this movie. That one's pretty good too, but Gift of the Night Fury is still my favorite! I love Homecoming because we see more of the Night Lights (Toothless and the Light Fury's babies)! 😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️🐉🐉🐉
The parallel from the first movie when toothless lets him touch him, to this one where it's reversed.... this is storytelling . Like I cannot express enough how well done these movies were.
I like the symbolism of Hiccup "taking off his leg/losing his leg" again. He is letting Toothless go, since that is the foot that used to control Toothless tail wing
12:16 i think the Lightfury actually told Toothless to be careful about the trap when they met in the woods, she growled at him and he then circled around that specific Spot 16:10 and she isnt a jerk, she was simply thinking that Hiccup was forcing Toothless to carry him, she wanted to help Toothless
I found your channel just few days ago and I already saw 5 reaction from you. I'm sharing the same energy as you are (specially Real Steel bcs it's my fav movie) and you are sooo nice people 🫶🏻 greeting from Slovakia 🇸🇰❤️
You almost never get to grow up with your favorite characters in animation movies.. the fact that they offered the audience that possibility makes it even more special ❤great reaction as always guys
I watched this movie for the first time today and I cried my eyes out . I waited as much as I could because I didn't want to part ways with this trilogy. This one and Kung Fu Panda are my favourite animated movies ❤ ❤
The series of movies was amazing and brilliant. From story to music. And the cast, big adjustment for the actor Jay Baruchel for the voice of Hiccup. From being the smartest person in the movie TROPIC THUNDER. Job well done.🎉🎉🎉
Icelandic singer-songwriter Jonsi (of Sigur Ros) doesn't get enough love and respect for his contribution to this series. He contributed original songs for ALL THREE movies, but in this one he gave us a little extra, co-composing the Hidden World sequence cue with John Powell and also contributing his own vocals to it as well. It's such a beautiful addition to one of the most spellbinding sequences I've ever seen in an animated film.
i criedddd when they let go their dragons, because literally I grew up with them. I was in 2nd grade when the first movie was out, and when the 3rd movie comes out I was in high school:(
That's what is known as a perfect ending ❤ Specially for those like me who watched since we were kids ,from the first movie to the series and the final movie . Really emotional when i watched in theatre.
I love your reaction to this trilogy, they are my all time favorite movies for sure. I appreciate how you guys covered so many of the amazing qualities of this movie and the others! You guys are the best!
In case you're curious about "he didn't like before" tail upgrade thing Watch the christmas short movie of how to train your dragon Where hiccup created the tail that he can use without the pilot
Randomly saying, I am not social and when I watch your videos feels like I am watching it with you, bec your both very inviting and just good energy keep it up yo
22:35 now you know why the book calls the night fury “the unholy offspring of LIGHTNING and death itself” clearly someone saw a night fury do this at some point.
Light Fury is basically just a scaly cat with wings lol. All her mannerisms are so catty that the only thing missing is her pushing small objects off edges 😂 Also kinda sweet we see the Bewilderbeast in the Hidden World. Nice that he got a happy ending after all Drago put him through.
Love this series! Did anyone notice the sea dragon in the hidden world? The one with the broken tusk from the 2nd movie. I thought that was a cool addition.
I love the whole series of “How to train your dragon”, I also loved your reactions to watching it for the first time. I also want to recommend the movie “the guest” from 2014. It is truly underrated.
I remember when my oldest sister and I went to see it in the theater the moment she saw the lightfury she squeezed my hand so hard from the excitement.
This is an awesome trilogy. Something the world has lost with this new generation of film companies. Too bad. But we will always have these beautiful movies to watch whenever we want.
Grimmel was definitely a well-written main villain. He’s basically Hiccup’s evil counterpart and an evil counterpart is the evil equivalent of a protagonist with similar skills and a similar background to the protagonist, but with small differences. Unlike Hiccup, who couldn’t bring himself to kill Toothless, Grimmel killed a Nighty Fury where it slept when he was young. After that action made him a hero in his village, Grimmel decided to become a dragon killer and kill every last dragon. Since Grimmel is the reason that Night Furies faced near extinction and left Toothless the last of his kind. Like Hiccup, Grimmel relies on his intelligence and his Deathgrippers whom he treats like personal lap dogs and drugged them into obedience with their own venom.
The way things play out over this story, it almost feels like fate is being ironic. A little Grimmel was confronted with the choice of either slaying a dragon or letting it live, to which he took the violent route. This very decision also lead Grimmel to hunt down every single other night fury, all up until another young boy was confronted by another dragon, as well as the same choice as Grimmel all those years ago. By listening to his heart and reviving Toothless, however, Hiccup also just so happened to have saved the very last night fury of it's race, becoming the progenator of the remaining dragons in a way!
I saw the first movie in theaters and took my family to see it. They were like what are you taking us to see? After the movie: that was one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is still one of my favorite trilogies of all time!
This trilogy is so beautiful, it's really about how hard growing up is so hard sometimes and you need people and in this case dragons, to pull you out of your shell a bit and that's what makes this story so beautifull, in my opinion, i loved your guys reaction on this movie and the whole trilogy in general. If i can give a suggestion on a show you guys maybe could watch, it's the Rings Of Power, there a lot of different openions on this series, but i think it's beautiful and i think you guys would like it.
This one is my favorite of the trilogy! It has such a huge message for both Hiccup and Toothless and is so heartfelt and emotional. I can’t watch this movie without crying. I’m so glad yall loved this series!
So so true - the trilogy is so mature and heartfelt, and we are so enamored with this world! Thank you so so much for joining us on this journey! On to the next!
And 1 300 years later, dragons still had to live in the Hidden World because people don't see them as anything other than money or threats,but we will always know that they will always be safe. Long live Dragons.
I think that you should also react to the ‘Homecoming’ short. This is the most appropriate and amazing way for the Trilogy end. Would you be willing to give it a shot?
Did I just cry AGAIN with this movie because of you reacting to it? Yes. Absolutly. I love this ffing heartbreak movie so much. And thank you guys for watching them and enjoy them.
There is actually a short movie called Homecoming, it happens before Hiccop reunites with Toothless where we see more of Hiccop's kids and Toothless's babies I really recommend Race to the Edge it happens between the first and the second movie, and we see a lot of the stuff Hiccop has in the second movie and of course, new dragons, even Dragons mentioned in the first movie in the book Hiccup was reading
If you like beautiful visuals, interesting and complex characters, and a fantastic score; I think you'll LOVE Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke. Love your reactions, always!
Httyd 1 = I'm 7 years old. Httyd 2 = I'm 11 years old. Httyd 3 = I'm 17 years old. I grew up with them too. And now I'm 21 years old. --What a wonderful journey.--
I’m not a fan of remakes but I’m actually looking forward to the live action version of the first film (Hear me out) The only reason why I want to see it is because Dean DeBlois is returning to write/direct and he was the man in charge of this amazing trilogy, so who knows what else he has up his sleeves. Plus, Gerald Butler is gonna reprise his role as Stoick the Vast and if we loved him voicing the character, just imagine how we’d feel of him playing the character. You all can hate me if u want, but I’m gonna see it when it releases.
I've been away for a few days and just watched this video. It is indeed a wonderful series, it wasn't dragged on more than it needed to be, and mostly, taught us that eventually, you have to let go and give your companion their freedom in order to keep them safe. Might I suggest Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, and Rise Of The Guardians? Not connected with each other but definitely wholesome.
"There were Dragons when I was a boy" is the very first line of the How to Train your Dragon books, where Hiccup is narrating the entire story to his children.
And it is a great children's series by Cressida Cowell and I highly recommend the audio-books read by David Tenant. Very different from the movie but amazing just the same

I never even knew they had books this is so dope. I grew up watching this. It's cool to see all these adults still being able to watch it and feel the same way.
The whole "How to train your dragon" series is a life journey in itself. You grow to love the characters and you literally grow up with them.
So true!! Seeing Hiccup become a grown man with a family got us all up in our feels! What a beautiful story!
Some of us actually did grew up with the franchise, for me the tv series and the movies. I say the tv series because, even if the story and animation isn’t perfect, it shows the character personalities very well and see how the movies actually kinda link (even if some bits were left out), and you actually see them grow up between seasons (also since the tv series is canon, we technically did grow up with them).
It was nice until the last movie destroyed everything the previous movies worked for. The entire message was thrown away and in its place put the message "just give up when it's too hard"
Toothless was no longer a friend in 3, they had to start making the characters treat him like a pet with no freedom. After all that gaslighting from astrid its no wonder hiccup thought he wouldn't come back and went there himself.
All the progress he made was erased in an instant, and when the dragons come back next time people would have better weapons and most likely attack them because they knew absolutely nothing about them (the most recent series relies on lucky plot to avoid this).
The ending of the last movie did nothing but destroy the goal hiccup had, when he hadn't even run into a wall.
He went "wah there's always going to be someone super bad like this guy" and gave up when literally every big villain he encountered had some kind of obsessive beef with him or berk itself.
In the end Grimmel won and achieved everything he set out to do.

I basically grew up with this trilogy, I sobbed so badly in that scene it hit hard
I was one of those people in theaters!!
When i watched it for first time i cried so hard. Such a great trilogy, all parts are amazing and creators knew when to stop making sequels.

He is a reminder of how dark Hiccup could have been

Just a fun and sweet fact: Since toothless is a Night fury and his queen is a light fury. Their children are called Nightlights 💙💚

“You’ve never had a prisoner as hot as me” she is such a mood 😂
Hiccup´s mother and Cloud Jumper both lost 20yrs of friendship, the letting go that hurt the most

46:07 These little Night Fury x Light Fury hybrid dragons are called the Night Lights.
You should react to the ''Homecoming'' short film special... takes place between them getting married and finding Toothless at the end of this movie!
Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet or if you two noticed it but at 42:25 when Hiccup lifted his hand from Toothless' head it was a reverse version of what happened when they first bonded back in HTTYD 1
Cause back then it was kinda like their first hello to each other in their relationship
while here It's their goodbye
because as easily as they can still visit one another, they'd have to do it discreetly because like Hiccup mentioned, not everyone is ready for dragons as well as not all dragons are ready for humans
like shown in the part where Hiccup and Astrid visited the hidden world and got attacked by that big dragon but Hiccup couldn't do his usual thing to make it relax and accept them.
I cry every time I watch this movie. This trilogy is a 10/10, and this series is always going to be my favorite. Also, please watch the shows if you haven't already. The amount of new dragons and exploration in the world is worth watching. Great reaction, and keep up the work!
did you notice that on the statue of Stoick during the marriage scene, there is a carving of Hiccup and Toothless's first true bonding moment?

The Ending lets me always feel tears!
Definitely the most emotional moment in a Animation Movie!
The thing about this villain is he's basically Hiccup if he followed through will killing Toothless. A man who hunts dragons not with intimidation or brute strength but using his head and technology.
I see a human version of Hades, Hercules (1997)
A good message for all young people too and one I think is slept on a bit, is what it actually means to be a leader. Too often in Disney films the message is more about letting go, running away to tread your own path, doing what you really want to despite what others think, etc. this movie has all of that but then ties a bow of realism to it with the emotional complexities of love and loss and where determination really comes from in life.

What a great point! It truly is a great theme throughout these movies. And a great way to end the story ❤️

I think what really hits me is that i can definitely see Hiccup becoming another version of Grimmel had he killed toothless. Think about it, he wouldve killed a night fury something that no one had seen on berk besides it blasting buildings and that validation from his father that he always wanted would encourage him to push harder to kill dragons and since he is already a master craftsmen you can only imagine how quick and efficent he would ve become turning hiccup into this dragon killing boogeyman
Well, Grimmel is Hiccup’s evil counterpart and an evil counterpart is the evil equivalent of a protagonist with similar skills and a similar background to the protagonist, but with small differences. Unlike Hiccup, who couldn’t bring himself to kill Toothless, Grimmel killed a Nighty Fury where it slept when he was young. After that action made him a hero in his village, Grimmel decided to kill every last dragon. Like Hiccup, Grimmel relies on his intelligence and his Deathgrippers whom he treats lap dogs and drugged them into obedience with their own venom. However, Hiccup learned to become more independent and not always rely on Toothless. Something that Grimmel never learned and it was one of the things that led to his downfall. Even though he never really cared about his Deathgrippers, Grimmel did relied on them so much.
@@matthewmira3265 bro did you just what I was trying to say but smarter? Fair enough
Am I the only one who gets strong Jake Gyllenhaal vibes off of older Hiccup at the end?
Also, the end always makes me cry a little.
Someone else compared him to John Krasinski
I was 28 when I saw this and I as well as every other adult in the theater were crying their eyes out just as hard as the kids.
There is no reason to not include the How To Train Your Dragon trilogy among the greatest movie trilogies of all time.
Hundred percent agreed, this trilogy is so heartfelt and wholesome - it doesn't matter what age you are, it hits!
Not sure if you guys knew this, but when Astrid tells Hiccup you tried this before and he didn't want it, she was referring to the Christmas special Gift of the Night Fury that came out after the first movie. Hiccup made Toothless a new tail for their holiday called Snoggletog, because he felt bad that Toothless couldn't come and go as he pleases like the other dragons. Toothless loves to go flying every morning and every evening, and on their morning flight Hiccup lost his helmet. Toothless used the new tail and was gone for a few days, and when he returned he brought Hiccup's helmet back. The next morning they're about to go flying again, and Toothless got out the old tail they used to use and smashed the new one, showing Hiccup that he wants them to fly together. It's a really good short, and I watch it every single year around the holidays! I would highly recommend it if you guys didn't watch it! There is also a newer one called Homecoming that takes place before the epilogue at the end of this movie. That one's pretty good too, but Gift of the Night Fury is still my favorite! I love Homecoming because we see more of the Night Lights (Toothless and the Light Fury's babies)! 😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️🐉🐉🐉
The parallel from the first movie when toothless lets him touch him, to this one where it's reversed.... this is storytelling . Like I cannot express enough how well done these movies were.
Im a 31 year old man, and that ending still brings a tear to my eye
I legit don't even really wanna watch this because I don't want it to end 😭😭 love you guys and love that you loved it, this trilogy is incredible
I like the symbolism of Hiccup "taking off his leg/losing his leg" again. He is letting Toothless go, since that is the foot that used to control Toothless tail wing
12:16 i think the Lightfury actually told Toothless to be careful about the trap when they met in the woods, she growled at him and he then circled around that specific Spot
16:10 and she isnt a jerk, she was simply thinking that Hiccup was forcing Toothless to carry him, she wanted to help Toothless
I found your channel just few days ago and I already saw 5 reaction from you. I'm sharing the same energy as you are (specially Real Steel bcs it's my fav movie) and you are sooo nice people 🫶🏻 greeting from Slovakia 🇸🇰❤️
As a visually impaired person, I thank you for letting me see those films a little better.
You almost never get to grow up with your favorite characters in animation movies.. the fact that they offered the audience that possibility makes it even more special ❤great reaction as always guys
I watched this movie for the first time today and I cried my eyes out . I waited as much as I could because I didn't want to part ways with this trilogy. This one and Kung Fu Panda are my favourite animated movies ❤ ❤
I call the little babies 'nightlight's'😅😊 Perfect mixture of both their parents. Love that you guys are diving into animation movies❤
The series of movies was amazing and brilliant. From story to music. And the cast, big adjustment for the actor Jay Baruchel for the voice of Hiccup. From being the smartest person in the movie TROPIC THUNDER. Job well done.🎉🎉🎉
It's Cool How the Light Fury and Toothless Were Flying together
Icelandic singer-songwriter Jonsi (of Sigur Ros) doesn't get enough love and respect for his contribution to this series. He contributed original songs for ALL THREE movies, but in this one he gave us a little extra, co-composing the Hidden World sequence cue with John Powell and also contributing his own vocals to it as well. It's such a beautiful addition to one of the most spellbinding sequences I've ever seen in an animated film.
This trilogy = my favorite Dreamworks movies! ❤It was so much fun to watch your reactions.
i criedddd when they let go their dragons, because literally I grew up with them. I was in 2nd grade when the first movie was out, and when the 3rd movie comes out I was in high school:(
the little ones are named Night Lights which is a perfect name for em if you ask me
The Light Fury didn't have an actual name, but the fans named her Luna.
That's what is known as a perfect ending ❤
Specially for those like me who watched since we were kids ,from the first movie to the series and the final movie .

Oh dude this is so cool, thank you so much for taking the time to share this with us!! This is awesome!
Whoa,that’s impressive.😃
Damm dude,I respect the commitment,especially if you had to type all of this instead of coyppaste.
I love your reaction to this trilogy, they are my all time favorite movies for sure. I appreciate how you guys covered so many of the amazing qualities of this movie and the others! You guys are the best!
In case you're curious about "he didn't like before" tail upgrade thing
Watch the christmas short movie of how to train your dragon
Where hiccup created the tail that he can use without the pilot
One of the greatest animated trilogy's of all time!
THE greatest!
Randomly saying, I am not social and when I watch your videos feels like I am watching it with you, bec your both very inviting and just good energy keep it up yo
22:35 now you know why the book calls the night fury “the unholy offspring of LIGHTNING and death itself” clearly someone saw a night fury do this at some point.
Love your reviews, guys.. always a joyful and emotional experience together with you .. much love from Czech Republic
Light Fury is basically just a scaly cat with wings lol. All her mannerisms are so catty that the only thing missing is her pushing small objects off edges 😂
Also kinda sweet we see the Bewilderbeast in the Hidden World. Nice that he got a happy ending after all Drago put him through.
She’s just called Light Fury but I bet there’s a secret name like they had for Simba and Nala’s baby (in the original film)
Love this series! Did anyone notice the sea dragon in the hidden world? The one with the broken tusk from the 2nd movie. I thought that was a cool addition.
I think this is my favorite of the bunch
It just hits right
Favorite animated trilogy!!
Thanks for this!!
I love the whole series of “How to train your dragon”, I also loved your reactions to watching it for the first time. I also want to recommend the movie “the guest” from 2014. It is truly underrated.
all of them are good im happy hiccup is getting a beard his dad genetics kicking in
Such a perfect ending to a wonderful series. Too bad that they want to remake it in live action
Thank u guys for taking the ride with all of us , some of us again lol , this is one of my favorite animated films series,
I remember when my oldest sister and I went to see it in the theater the moment she saw the lightfury she squeezed my hand so hard from the excitement.
This is an awesome trilogy. Something the world has lost with this new generation of film companies. Too bad. But we will always have these beautiful movies to watch whenever we want.
This is definitely one of my favorites if not my favorite animated trilogy. I’m glad people still appreciate it just as much
This was my childhood the whole entire how to train your dragon series
Fun fact : baby night and light fury’s are called NIGHT LIGHTS RAAAA ITS SO CUTE
I loved watching your journey on this trilogy. awesome.
Grimmel was definitely a well-written main villain. He’s basically Hiccup’s evil counterpart and an evil counterpart is the evil equivalent of a protagonist with similar skills and a similar background to the protagonist, but with small differences. Unlike Hiccup, who couldn’t bring himself to kill Toothless, Grimmel killed a Nighty Fury where it slept when he was young. After that action made him a hero in his village, Grimmel decided to become a dragon killer and kill every last dragon. Since Grimmel is the reason that Night Furies faced near extinction and left Toothless the last of his kind. Like Hiccup, Grimmel relies on his intelligence and his Deathgrippers whom he treats like personal lap dogs and drugged them into obedience with their own venom.
The way things play out over this story, it almost feels like fate is being ironic. A little Grimmel was confronted with the choice of either slaying a dragon or letting it live, to which he took the violent route. This very decision also lead Grimmel to hunt down every single other night fury, all up until another young boy was confronted by another dragon, as well as the same choice as Grimmel all those years ago. By listening to his heart and reviving Toothless, however, Hiccup also just so happened to have saved the very last night fury of it's race, becoming the progenator of the remaining dragons in a way!
This movie had the perfect ending
I saw the first movie in theaters and took my family to see it. They were like what are you taking us to see? After the movie: that was one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is still one of my favorite trilogies of all time!
And that's how house targerian begins lol
😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
This trilogy is so beautiful, it's really about how hard growing up is so hard sometimes and you need people and in this case dragons, to pull you out of your shell a bit and that's what makes this story so beautifull, in my opinion, i loved your guys reaction on this movie and the whole trilogy in general. If i can give a suggestion on a show you guys maybe could watch, it's the Rings Of Power, there a lot of different openions on this series, but i think it's beautiful and i think you guys would like it.
This one is my favorite of the trilogy! It has such a huge message for both Hiccup and Toothless and is so heartfelt and emotional. I can’t watch this movie without crying. I’m so glad yall loved this series!
So so true - the trilogy is so mature and heartfelt, and we are so enamored with this world! Thank you so so much for joining us on this journey! On to the next!
Did y'all noticed the two others light furies when toothless was on top with his light fury in the hidden world
43:24 never realised the cravings on the stone was the first time Hiccup and Toothless connected
This is the perfect conclusion to the franchise, we certainly don't need that cash grab remake in 2025!
I'm so glad you guys enjoyed these movies! This trilogy has been my whole childhood since I can remember and toothless was my very first tattoo :)
And 1 300 years later, dragons still had to live in the Hidden World because people don't see them as anything other than money or threats,but we will always know that they will always be safe.
Long live Dragons.
I think that you should also react to the ‘Homecoming’ short. This is the most appropriate and amazing way for the Trilogy end. Would you be willing to give it a shot?
Did I just cry AGAIN with this movie because of you reacting to it? Yes. Absolutly. I love this ffing heartbreak movie so much. And thank you guys for watching them and enjoy them.
There is actually a short movie called Homecoming, it happens before Hiccop reunites with Toothless where we see more of Hiccop's kids and Toothless's babies
I really recommend Race to the Edge it happens between the first and the second movie, and we see a lot of the stuff Hiccop has in the second movie and of course, new dragons, even Dragons mentioned in the first movie in the book Hiccup was reading
Only way to better my day is when y’all post frl
It just gets you in all the feels and makes you super joyful. I love all of these. Thanks for watching with us.
imagine growing up watching these movies (and the spinoff shows), and seeing this in theaters 😭
If you like beautiful visuals, interesting and complex characters, and a fantastic score; I think you'll LOVE Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke. Love your reactions, always!
Httyd 1 = I'm 7 years old.
Httyd 2 = I'm 11 years old.
Httyd 3 = I'm 17 years old.
I grew up with them too. And now I'm 21 years old. --What a wonderful journey.--
Omg I'm crying 😢 😂I love that you guys did this series 👏 I really love your reactions ❤️
I’m not a fan of remakes but I’m actually looking forward to the live action version of the first film (Hear me out) The only reason why I want to see it is because Dean DeBlois is returning to write/direct and he was the man in charge of this amazing trilogy, so who knows what else he has up his sleeves. Plus, Gerald Butler is gonna reprise his role as Stoick the Vast and if we loved him voicing the character, just imagine how we’d feel of him playing the character. You all can hate me if u want, but I’m gonna see it when it releases.
8:00......you can absolutley see that his pops sees dragons as an absolute essential part of a vikings life...they respect them in that way.
Can't believe Hidden World is literally 5 years old this year!
I've been away for a few days and just watched this video. It is indeed a wonderful series, it wasn't dragged on more than it needed to be, and mostly, taught us that eventually, you have to let go and give your companion their freedom in order to keep them safe.
Might I suggest Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, and Rise Of The Guardians? Not connected with each other but definitely wholesome.
