How To Train Your Dragon 3 trailer.

[Tanis]

I enjoyed both films and the whole of the animated series.

I'm both excited and dreading the third film.

So Hiccup has a beard now eh? I guess someone at Dreamworks is a fan of the new God of War game.

To be fair, you could see him being stubbly in the second one as a "Look he's older and maturer" thing. Full beard is just the next step of that

I forgot how much I like the soundtrack of this series.

Anyway, same sentiments: first movie was great, second movie was alright. Hopefully they up the action in this movie, that's what I found lacking in the second.

Per the above points:

-I've only seen the first 'How to Train Your Dragon', but I definitely reccomend it. It's an excellent film, and actually my #1 DreamWorks film.

-It's not in the style of Prince of Egypt - it's certainly DW's most 'serious' franchise post-PoE, but it's a completely different tone, being focused on action-adventure. So if you liked PoE, it's not a guarantee in of itself that you'll like this.

-Post Shrek 2, of the DW films I've seen, I'd still maintain that Over the Hedge and Kung Fu Panda (the first) are good movies. But in hindsight, I think it's the first Shrek that really gave DW its 'voice,' so to speak, in that it defined what we expect from a DW film (focus on humour).

-Concerning 2D animation, DW seems to be in the same place that Disney is - 2D animation for cartoon series? Fine. 2D animation for films? Nup. I don't particuarly mind, but don't expect to ever see a DW 2D animated movie again.

-Surprised that they're definitively declaring it to be the final installment. We'll see how long that lasts...

What's your opinion on Rise of the Guardians?

Never seen it.

My whole attitude of being slightly worried is the use of the romance for Toothless, the generic bad guy and also because its a third film.

I mean I enjoyed Kung Fu Panda 3 even if I thought it was the weakest film in the trilogy.


Shrek the Third, on the other hand, is my least favorite Dreamworks animated film and one of the most unfunny comedies I've ever sat through.

I actually really liked Rise of the Guardians.
