    The Toothless spinning scene - yes, Hiccup helps control what Toothless does, but they have to be in sync or else they'll crash. Hiccup, although he doesn't want Toothless to be doing what he's doing and scaring Astrid, goes along with it because he knows that Toothless wouldn't go as far as to make them crash just to scare Astrid, they're not in danger so long as he goes with it. If Hiccup tries to make Toothless do something different, they could lose control.

    28:52 That's the reason Toothless is really scary. For some reason, many people pay attention to his cute appearance, but completely forget his description from the book of dragons. He dropped to the ground a dragon that was 15-20 times bigger and heavier than him, who also stood firmly on all four legs, with one shot. If you start to look into the details, then you realize that Toothless is a damn scary combat unit.

    For the maiming of the MC, for the longest time after the first movie, the theory was that Toothless had to grab Hiccup by the leg with his mouth to be able to catch and shield him in time, and that's why he lost his lower leg. In the second movie, you get a very overlooked throwaway comment that confirms this, and I'll be looking forward to see if you'll catch it when it happens.

    33:48 That's the problem. The perception around animation. Animated doesn't even necessarily have to mean 'family movie'. Like Robert Zemeckis' Beowulf or Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children or tons of anime films. It's just another medium.

  • @Custodian_of_the_Emperor

    If you're interested in seeing Hiccup's growth between the first and second film, maybe you'd be interested in checking out the shows on your own time? They are canon btw, and not only do they show how Hiccup matures and grows his leadership skills and gains confidence, but also lets you see more of his relationships with his father and Astrid and how they develop. If you want more Dreamworks Dragons content, I definitely recommend.

    I saw this movie for the first time when I was ten, I'm now in my twenties and I love it even more then when I was a kid. Especially for things like the fact that it's the only animated "kids" / family movie I can think of with a disabled protagonist. The way they handle Hiccups disability is also very well done. There is a great moment in the TV series (highly recommend, has lots of great lore) where Toothless is trying to drag Hiccup to safety, but grabs him by his prosthetic which falls off. Hiccup proceeds to joke to the person next to him "how long do you think it will take him to notice". It's the mark of really great writing and humor when you can joke about a disability without punching down, and it being very funny to real disabled people.

    I’m glad that you mentioned the theme. The music for this trilogy was done by John Powell and personally I think that he did an absolutely amazing job at it, especially with the main theme. Within the main theme, you can pick out 2 primary motifs that each help to represent the two main characters, hiccup and toothless. The one that you pointed out at 28:42 is mostly know by the community as hiccups theme. Meanwhile the other motif known by the community as toothless’s theme can be heard distinctively at 4:54 and at 10:20. Although these times are when the music is the most distinct out of what was in this video, the motifs are used constantly throughout the entire movie sometimes played slowly, or somber, or sometimes John Powell even uses chords that are related to the main motifs in order to create a sense of panic and unease like when hiccup and toothless are falling during their test flight. In my opinion (and many others if I’m not mistaken), the best example of these two different motifs are when they finally come together in harmony during the song that plays over their test flight, aptly named test flight. Either way there are a large number of great videos that talk about the genius of this music a lot more in depth than I have already done with this paragraph of a comment.

But hearing it through objective artistic ears without only feeling the emotion that the music brings.... i honestly have to put on top 3. Along with star wars and Narnia (even tough narnia wasn't as succesful as other franchises, the soundtrack is to me, top THREE worthy. But now the more i think about the HTTYD soundtrack objectively, the more inclined i am to put it on number ONE)

I'd honestly recommend watching them all, even if just in your spare time and not on UA-cam because I know that may not be feasible, but if you watch at least one of the extras I highly recommend the sort movie "Gift of the Night Fury". Its plot is briefly mentioned in HTTYD3, and it's just a lovely little movie in general.

    An interesting theory is that Hiccup loses his leg because of Toothless. To catch Hiccup he probably had to catch him with his mouth, causing damage to Hiccup's leg in the process.
    This story is so interesting that they gave their main character life long concequences that can be a reality when taking on extreme dangers (that don't include death and therefore grief for characters). It is so cool as they turn it into a reflextion of his skills as a craftsman, and how it doesn't reflect on him as a setback but a display of progression and perseverance.

    Ok, piece of advice: if you wanna watch the whole franchise, watch the shows next (Riders of Berk, Defenders of Berk and Race to the Edge) and then the second and third movies. The shows are specifically made to fill the gap and expand the universe. Way too many people watch it in release order instead of chronological order. I can not stress this enough. If you want to continue the franchise, do the shows and THEN continue the movies. The shows are absolute peak btw, even better than the movies because of the extra time for character development.
