Posted June 30, 2012 This movie...oh my lawd. It never fails to give me goosebumps. <33 I love all of the dragon's designs, too. Especially Night Furies and their salamander-shaped heads. 8D Share this post Link to post
Posted June 30, 2012 They refer to it as "Red Death". I'm not sure if that's the breed's name or just a nickname for that particular dragon, though. It's the name of the dragon. If I remember correctly, the first book did say what kind of a dragon it was... 'Giganticus Seadrgonus' or something like that. Oh wait, that the latin one. The breed's Sea Dragon. Gotta say, while both books and the film was awesome, I can't help but over-analyse the film while I was watching it. Meh. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 30, 2012 I think I love both the book and the movie, Toothless eating fishes always makes me smile in the movies. ^^ Share this post Link to post

Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) The movie is being made into a TV series! I saw a preview of it last week and everyone/and dragon will be in it including some new dragons as well. The series starts next month on Cartoon Network. http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2012/08...20809cartoon02/ Edited August 13, 2012 by Jedi40 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 19, 2012 I watched the movie long before I even knew the books existed, and it's still one of my favorite movies. The animation is amazing. And according to Wikipedia, there's going to be a sequel. In 2014. It better be good if we have to wait four years since the original came out. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 19, 2012 I loved that movie! I want to check out the T.V series too. Toothless is too cute to even exist. I love how he goes from moody and threatening to friendly and downright adorable in half a second. However, Skrills are my favorite breed. (they aren't in the movie) Share this post Link to post

It isn't exactly quick to produce these kinds of animations. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 19, 2012 It isn't exactly quick to produce these kinds of animations. ^ that. If I'm not wrong, to produce an animation movie, the finished product requires several heavy-duty computers to hold it. There's about a few billion GB in a movie alone. They have to have artists who will draw the characters out, digital artists who flesh them out in the screen, and animators who make them move they way they do. All these take lots of time and communication. All in all, movies are giant projects that use AND bring in loads of money. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 20, 2012 Creating an animation movie does take long... First of they need to do research and get permission from authors to use the stories. Then there is to see how much money is available. Then the sketch artists come to play and thousands of ideas get to be thrown around but they still need the thumbs up from the author. If all goes well and the story has been laid out and sketches have been done, then the computer artists come to play. Each and every thing is basically build up from a block and upon layers of layers is given. Sometimes there is just one guy who does just the one thing… like the background of the village or what not. From there movement is added and they story starts pulling together, scene by scene. When every thing is ready they use a super computer to merge everything and that’s called rendering. This is the tough part cause it takes so long… and when there is mistakes in the thing then you have to fix it and restart the process of rendering. From there voices of the actors are added and so on… then you get your movie. It is a very long process... but with today's and the future's technology it will hopefully go faster.

Posted August 25, 2012 Yeah, I know it takes awhile, and How to Train Your Dragon had amazing animation. I'm just annoyed that I have to wait that long for a sequel. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2012 I never knew a book existed! Loved the movie! HICCUP! BEST-NAME-EVARRRR!!!! ^ that. If I'm not wrong, to produce an animation movie, the finished product requires several heavy-duty computers to hold it. There's about a few billion GB in a movie alone..... Few billion? I've seen disks with about 3 animation films on them, i doubt one disc could hold a single movie if it was a few billion GB Still, a few hundred, low thousands Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2012 Few billion? I've seen disks with about 3 animation films on them, i doubt one disc could hold a single movie if it was a few billion GB Still, a few hundred, low thousands You have the finished product compressed into a disk. During the movie making, they have to keep all the required items that make the movie how it is in its original form, just in case there are amendments and all that. So, there'll be millions of files just for that one movie alone, just like a group project in your class; everyone does a section, you collect everything and compile it into a single report. The same principle applies here, only on a larger scale Share this post Link to post
Posted September 5, 2012 I like the movie, watched it in Spanish What's the dragon's English name, Toothless, right? Share this post Link to post
