How to Train Your Dragon

#1

Post by Apollo the Just » Sun Apr 04, 2010 10:16 pm

I know I've mentioned this in like five other threads, but I'm utterly and completely obsessed with this movie and apparently so is pretty much everyone else who's seen it so CLEARLY IT REQUIRES A THREAD.

It's just one of those movies where it is physically impossible to watch it and not smile. The dialogue was awesome, the animation was great, the characters were likeable, and the movie itself was adorable.

Win? Yes. It's probably one of my absolute favorite movies from this year.

4chan already spoiled the ending for me.

And I don't know who Ruffnut or Astrid are, but they sure are drawing a lot of pictures of them.

I enjoyed it don't know if I'd buy it but I'd rent it at least once. Not that it wasn't a funny movie but the trailers I saw played it as more of a comedy then an adventure film so yeah that kinda bugged me.

^ Well, I saw it as kind of both. It was definitely comedic.

I liked that the humor was less slapstick (not to say it wasn't, just less) and focused more on the writing, which was unusually sharp for a Dreamworks animated flick. The rest of the movie was beautiful to look at, I liked the plot and it was really just a lot of fun to watch. Gave me that glowy feeling on the inside. Awesome movie, and worth the price of admission, fer sher.

I wanted to see this tonight. My brother wanted to see James Cameron's Avatar. We saw Avatar.

^ I'm sorry for your loss. D}:

Funny, upon exiting the movie theater, I told my mom that I enjoyed this movie much more than the over-hyped Avatar. Also, this movie knew when to end. :{P

Saw it; loved it. I must say, it is pretty radical.

Best movie all year. But, the story was full of Cliches and expectability.
