To be a little fair to Stoic, his fear for Hiccup was never that he wouldn't be a dragon killing warrior: it was that he would get himself or someone else killed trying to prove that he's something he isn't. If you listen to Stoic's conversation with Gobber, he says it pretty clearly: Hiccup doesn't know who he is or how to be it, Stoic doesn't know how to help him, and he's afraid he can't protect him. Does that excuse his behavior? Nope. But it does help one understand him better.

What Stoick said was one of the worst things he could have said to Hiccup. They take great pride in their heritage. Many Scandinavian surnames are along the lines of Anderson, or Ericson. Which, literally, means son of Ander or Eric. To say Hiccup was not his son was to deny him the right to claim his lineage. He would be the lowest status person in his village, and by their beliefs, when he dies and if he goes to Valhalla, he cannot sit at the table of his ancestors. It's really just about the worst curse. Plus it means that Stoick's bloodline ends with him, unless he has, or adopts another child. So it is, entirely, fitting for Stoick to be shook by what he said. And yes, it is nice to see people recognize his reaction, instead of just lambasting him for it. Edit. As an aside, the part where they convert Astrid with the flight is more impactful than it appears. If you think about the time, flying would have been inconceivable to them. The highest anyone, probably, ever got off the ground would be to climb a tree. To be high enough to touch and get lost in the clouds, and look DOWN on a mountain, would be a view of the world from the perspective of the Gods. It would have been a, literally, life changing experience for her.

Also the fact that Toothless waits for Stoic to apologize before revealing that he saved Hiccup is often overlooked.

Like he was fully okay with letting Stoic think his son was dead if he didn't show how truly sorry he was to toothless himself, because saying it to Hiccup wasn't enough for him, he had to hear it too and it had to be sincere.

It's unusual that someone notices Stoic is in pain after his confrontation with Hiccup, like he can't quite believe what he just said, maybe regrets it, but as a leader he sets that feeling aside to focus on what he believes he needs to. Such a great character.

I'm not sure if it's officially confirmed, but, while I too initially thought Hiccup lost his lower leg to the fire, it's actually that Toothless bit his leg in order to catch him and break his fall in time.

Some facts about this franchise in case your interested: 10:42 This "old woman" is Gothi, she is the oldest viking in the village and acts as the village's doctor when they are sick. I don't think I've ever heard her talk before throughout the series before either. Toothless was based on a lot of animals but took a lot of inspiration from cats as you thought. The dragons hate eels because they cause them to hallucinate once eaten and can't control their fire blast. 15:24 This grass is called Dragon Nip in their universe and is the equivalent to Cat Nip On the original book Toothless was actually the size of the Terrible Terror (tiny dragon) but they changed it in the movie. 16:44 The amount of people that left is the same amount of people that returned, just less ships. 29:04 The strap that's across Toothless' head keeps his mouth closed enough to not allow him to shoot his fire. The big dragon at the end of the movie is called the Red Death, she is evil. The Red Death makes the other dragons give her food and if they don't, she kills and eats them. When Toothless dives from a high point and makes that whining-like noise, he is flying at the speed of sound. So when he fires one of his shots at this speed it also creates more force to the blast that caused the Red Death to end up falling over. Sorry this was long.

Did anyone notice when hiccup and toothless were attacking the green death in the cover of the clouds, they were specifically aiming for the wings so it would weaken them and they would tear when falling down. That’s some strategic shit right there!

I just started rewatching riders of berk, the series are so great, but if feels like they completely ignored any character development in the third movie, especially with Ruffnut and Snotlout.

The funny thing about Hiccup's list of other jobs is that all of those could be done during the day and he would still be able to fight dragons at night.

30:47 yep dragons do have the intelligence level to be evil, or good in this universe. (They cannonically have their own language) like the vikings they are also stuck in their ways of killing humans and their instincts. Toothless forgetting those aspects is another reason why his domesticated friendship with Hiccup is so admirable. Dragon facts: Also, all dragons do have hidden gills that allow them to breathe underwater a bit longer than humans, which is why toothless was able to stay down there for so long. While Cannabilism isn't common for most species, it does happen with mainly sea dragons, which are ussually the largest dragon species, as well as most pack dragons who ussually end up eating some of their siblings once they are born.

11:35 Toothless was actually based on a cat, they modeled him after different cat-like behaviors which really adds to his cuteness factor

"How to Train your Dragon" is probably my favorite animated film of all time... with "Cars" being a close second. The pacing is excellent, it has enough emotional parts to get a sniffle out of nearly anyone, character development is good, and the music is great... and of course, DRAGONS! 😍😍

Alex, you are right. The animators did confirm that they took inspiration from cats for the dragons and their behaviors 😂

These movies are all 3 so good and literally changed my entire life perspective

There are "six people in dragon training" in the village at that time, because there are only six teens of the suitable age at that time. Everyone else is either too young, or an adult and already _had_ dragon training.

Yep! It’s SO good. And Toothless is SO adorable I can’t stand it. The behind the scenes animator explains that Toothless’ movements and expressions were modeled after cats, dogs and birds. My Mom is obsessed with him. She even has a keychain. Toothless, Stitch and Groot. Those are her favorites.

I'm glad that you notice the dad's face when he comes out after telling Hiccup isn't his son. A lot of reactors miss this. He definitely regreting instantly that he said it, but he is on a mission and moves on.

29:04 I'm pretty sure he can't open his mouth to breath fire, that's why he doesn't free himself. That leather band around his mouth keeps his mouth shut What makes the "they're both amputees" thing better, is that they've both caused the others injury - yet have become the best of friends and support each other in their shortcomings. Hiccup shot down Toothless and damaged his tail, and Toothless grabbed Hiccup's leg to save him while he was falling, but damaged it beyond repair in the process (this is never explicitly stated or confirmed, but it's HIGLY implied) I highly recommend the 2 TV series (not required for the other movies but highly recommend. It takes place in between the 1st and 2nd movie, and adds a lot of character development lol)

This is one of my all-time favorite movies, the scene where he flies for the first time still makes me want to stand up and cheer every time when the music really kicks in.

I'm not into 3D animated films usually, but this franchise caught my heart. Probably the only animated film I'd watch multiple times.

32:10 I love how in this seen, because he's not wearing his helmet and his face is less obscured, you can actually see that Stoick and Hiccup share the same eyes which is just a wonderful visual metaphor of Stoick finally "looking at the world through his son's eyes."

28:19 She knows the answer, she's trying to get hiccup to say it and accept it!! God!! Alex, sometimes you kill me...

Now that you have watched the first movie you really should watch the other two. Also either before you watch the second movie or perhaps shortly after you might consider watching the series Dragons: Riders of Berk, followed by Defenders of Berk and finally Race to the Edge. Not only do they take place between the first and second Dragon movies and thus kinda show how Hiccup and the rest of Berk get from where they were at the end of the first film to what they were like at the start of the second, but they are among the best film-to-television adaptations out there if not the best animated series period. Even if you don't feel like you can react to it you should at least watch it on your own time, for yourself if nothing else as it's really truly great.

You're totally right, for the scenes at the beginning with toothless's new tail, the animators based it off of taping something to one of their cats tails and seeing what it did

How to Train Your Dragon is an amazing series. It's able to fill you with joy one moment and rip your heart out the next, and just... leave you saying "Thank you, would you please do that again?" It's a wild ride, but a very beautiful one!

3:09, in the books, the dragons were beasts of burden rather than enemies of the Vikings (with some exceptions)

I love it when you expect someone to be bad or react bad but then they turn out actually good. When Astrid turned out good it was extremely satisfying to me. My personal opinion when I think about it is that she was just really annoyed that she couldn't figure out what Hiccup was doing and it confused her. Let's face it, Astrid is extremely competitive and if Hiccup hadn't changed his methods Astrid probably would have won and she probably knew that too. She's not much of a gloater or has any ego but compared to everyone else it's not that hard to put together that she probably would have won. To see that opportunity get taken away from her suddenly in a way she couldn't figure out probably is what got her so mad. Once she understood she was all good and completely supported Hiccup. It was the confusion that got her mad.

"He tuuk the side of the draagon! He tuuk his momma's bewb off!" I'm howling!! 🤣

I’ve never seen this guy before but there is nothing that brings me more joy than watching someone be introduced to a movie series that I have been obsessed with and watched at least once a year since I was a child

5:35 Personally I think the knife is actually a decent size. Like probably WAYY above average.

As a long time fan of Scottish actor - Gerard ( Gerry) Butler, when I found out he was doing this animated movie, myself (and his fanbase) thought it was great! Of course I never heard of the kids books that was based on but the story sounded good. 😊 Loved the movie when it finally came out, GB was perfect as Stoick. At the time I thought it was a bit goofy that only a few of the Scandinavian village has a Scottish accent lol. But not like they were doing a documentary lol. Vikings are typically Nordic/Scandinavian, and they did invade Scotland and etc. but left eventually. Shetland do pretty much consider themselves more Scandinavian than Scottish. Anyways, I watched a behind the scenes video yrs ago on the making of the movie and the Animation ppl and etc. made Toothless basically a mix of Cat / Dog. His general look was very Cat like, then some bit of his personality was Dog like. Anytime I see Toothless, he reminds me of a Black cat I once had, named Tabou. Same green eyes as the Dragon. ❤ FYI....Black cats/kittens are one of the last color types to get adopted. 😢 I love Black cats and have had a few. So IF your dog wouldn't harm one- Adopt a cute black kitten!😊

9:49 I am so happy that someone actually noticed the fact that the book said a dragon 'turns its victims INSIDE-OUT'. Like...I don't want to imagine how the one who found this out and put it into the book looked at dragons after seeing that. Its a very underrated and gruesome detail.

I wonder which one does that

Hiccup is basically the Wright brothers in this movie. he had to invent and discover so many new things from scratch to learn to fly, and his blacksmith background sure helped

I can't believe this movie is being filmed as a live-action right now and the only one from this cast who's coming back is the actor, Gerald Butler, the one who plays Hiccups' father. I'm psyched to see Toothless in a live-action movie :D

10:24 I think the reason the dragons in dragon training aren't as smart as Toothless is because they've been confined for so long that all they know how to do is fight. 10:44 That's Gothi, the "Wise Woman" of the village.

So stoked to see Alex enjoy this movie as much as I do, seriously hope he does the whole trilogy cause the movies aged with the audience and it's one of the best movie trilogies ever made imo

"Let him touch you! 👺" ABSOLUTELY KILLED ME.

Fun Fact about Toothless the reason why he acts like a cat because his design was based off of a BLACK PANTHER and one of the sounds he makes is that of a domestic cat and also makes the sounds of a horse, tiger, elphant, ect.

30:54 "That looks like a Bad Dragon" ~ Alex Hefner, 2024

For all the animated dragon lovers, "Flight of Dragons" is an awesome older animated dragon movie!

HTTYD is definitely one of my most favorite trilogies. Also, as an owner of a black cat, I highly encourage you to get one if possible. I actually have two cats. The black one is a male named Midnight, and the other one is a gray striped cat named Laila. Midnight is older, and he's super chill and just wants you to pet him all the time. Laila is younger and is a total menace.

3:06 "Befriend the dragons" and "No you don't want to be one of them." Bro just predicted the entire plot of the movie.

Hiccup’s dad is a scarred character. It’s why he has a hard time relating to his son, even though he loves him so very much.

“Take all the rapists and thieves” Who’s gonna tell him what a Viking is 😅

17:44 you really spoke through one of the best scenes in all of animated movies 😭

The story has HEART!!! a lot of animated films fall flat. Because they have edited out everything important to character building. This one saved every moment that you noticed (get it Hollywood? We the audience NOTICE those moments). The film has HEART!!!

Totally love how Hiccup learned all about how dragons are and think and like and hate from Toothless, and how he looked like an absolute boss in training and all were just....'wtF.... Hiccup is doin this?..." beauty, hehehe.

5:20 "Why is it so funny when people get hurt?!" Because all comedy is fundamentally based on human suffering.

That's one of those ideas that makes you sound smart but falls apart the moment you think about it even a little. Really? ALL comedy? Puns and other wordplay, observational humor, improv. Comedy comes from the unexpected and absurd, and in a lot of cases yes, it's based on pain and someone's expense but to say ALL comedy is like that is silly. Sometimes it's just unexpected or clever.

6:24 Hiccup realistically should’ve immediately died there after Toothless slammed the back of his head against the rock.

A great animated movie that doesn’t get enough praise for its quality for sure! One of my all time favorites… story, characters, writing👏👌

Not only one of the best movies, one of the best trilogies ever. These movies have amazing story telling to go along with the animation, your heartstrings will get tugged on more than one occasion.

Dude you gotta watch the other 2 honestly this series is dreamworks at it best. The character development, storylines, soundtrack they knocked it outta the park with everything

That Aladdin montage was cracking my shit up; I was waiting for it 🤣🤣

You're spot on about Toothless being like a cat. The writers for this film got inspiration from their pets for the dragon behavior. And I can tell you from experience that black cats are super affectionate, which is a real shame since they get such a bad reputation. I fostered one a few years ago and he was the snuggliest creature I've ever encountered but it didn't work out because my two other cats didn't get along. Then we got an orange cat, and she's super cuddly too. The halloween cats really deserve more love.

21:07 It's like naming Voldemort "Noseless" haha

21:26 I have a 4 year old black cat named Salem. He often gets called toothless too, and will respond to it. I started to call him that when he was a baby kitten because of how similar they are. It’s so adorable when Salem does a head or body movement, or a facial expression that matches toothless. Wish I could show you the cuteness😂 but black cats are the best!! 21:48 I quote this line 24/7 to my pets, lovingly 😂

10:44 Wow, props to you, I never even knew the elder was watching from the beginning

I freaking LOVE this franchise. It's everything. Also, I don't say this often, but the next one in the series is, in my opinion, even better. But also emotional roller-coaster.

need the other movies. to this day How to Train Your Dragon has been the best movie series i have ever seen. i have gotten through a lot thanks to them and i am so glad that it still gets the attention because it seriously deserves all the love in the world

27:42 "No. He's scaled." Most reptiles are. 😂

11:07 the face you make when you've fallen for toothless

YOU MISSED TOOTHLESS FLYING ACROSS THE NIGHT SKY IN THE DREAMWORKS OPENING SEQUENCE! -sobbing and crying on the floor- No but for real, when I saw this movies in theaters, I was the only one of my group who noticed and it was such a cool thing to spot.

29:05 The reason Toothless didn't try to escape the restraints and burn down the ship was because Hiccup asked him not to hurt his father. Even though Stoick and the Vikings were ready to hurt, capture, and even kill him, Toothless trusted Hiccup enough to listen to his request not to hurt his community, even though he wasn't there.
