    • Trivia
      The hesitation Toothless shows during the famous "touch" scene was actually an animation error. However, it looked so perfect that the animators chose to leave it in the film.
    • Goofs
      The Vikings' accent is Scottish, not Scandinavian. However, the Vikings settled large portions of Scotland, including the Inner Hebrides where the fictitious colony of Berk is shown to be located, and this is the movie's way of reminding us of this.
    • Quotes

      Hiccup: [about the Night Fury] I really did hit one.

      Gobber: Sure.

      Hiccup: He never listens!

      Gobber: Well, it runs in the family.

      Hiccup: And when he does, it's always with this... disappointed scowl, like someone skimped on the meat in his sandwich.

      [imitating]

      Hiccup: "Excuse me, barmaid! I'm afraid you brought me the wrong offspring! I ordered an extra-large boy with beefy arms, extra guts and glory on the side. This here, this is a talking fish-bone!"

      Gobber: Now, you're thinkin' about this all wrong. It's not so much what you *look* like, it's what's *inside* that he can't stand.

      [pause]

      Hiccup: [sarcastic] Thank you for summing that up.

      Gobber: Look the point is, stop trying so hard to be something you're not!

      Hiccup: I just wanna be one of you guys!

    10/10
    One of the most Breathtaking Animated Films of all time.
    I watched How to Train Your Dragon about 5 times now, and it never gets boring. It actually keeps on getting better and better with with more and more views. This is a huge accomplishment for DreamWorks Animation, it might actually be its Best Animated Feauture it yet. It is an amazing experience to watch this film in Cinema. The 3D is amazing and at times Breathtaking. I may of had the most fun that I've ever had in Cinema watching How to Train Your Dragon.

    The script is really good and is has a lot of dramatic depth. This movie is for everyone. Adults and Kids will enjoy it equally and will love it at the end. This movie will probably become a series like Shrek. But I'm hoping this film doesn't get bad sequels like Shrek 3 and Shrek Forever After. Anyways this film will be most recognized for its beautiful animation.

    10/10 Highly Recommended
