Awesome movie. Great storyline.
At first the the dragon, Toothless, looks funny, but he grew on me.
I feel like this is one of those movies where I just want to say, it's such a great movie, I don't know what to say about it, I just want to say "Watch it!"
Oh, actually, I can say that the credits normal, except the background is on drawing parchment and occasionally there is a small picture of a dragon separating different categories.

I think the last time I saw this movie was in theaters. Apparently I forgot a lot. So far, Ben and I watched the first 45 minutes. I forgot all these bits where he uses what he learns with Toothless to tame the dragons during training. Though I would say he is lucky that all varieties of dragons share the same behavior. From a real-world biology interpretation, it would suggest that all dragons are one species with different characteristics as opposed to different looking dragons being different species (e.g., humans around the world have a wide variety of characteristics, but fall under one species).
On a different note, it's interesting how his love interest Astrid, at the part where we stopped watching, is annoyed with Hiccup.
In any case, we took a pause after an intense test run where Hiccup got detached from Toothless! It was a very exciting scene.

My favorite part in the movie is when Astrid first rides Toothless. It goes from thrilling and scary (for Astrid) to magical, beautiful, and romantic.

Instant Comments:
2b: resume at the 42 min mark (a couple minutes back from where we paused). where his father returna and Hiccup begins twsting out the different positions.
2b: oh it's good I rewatched this because I totally missed the first time around that he ditches the cheat sheet and uses his intuition to successly navigate.
2a: paused after the test run
2b: haha! "it's half of her breastplate"
2b: hehe punch. that's for kidnapping me. kiss on the cheek. that's for everything else.
2b: well just cause they have to feed the queen, the dragons still aren't bad.
2b: hmm I suppose it's easy for me to see as a bystander that his father is stubborn. why stop the fight when hiccup had things under control?
2b: I guess he lost his foot to the fire? the alternative is that Toothless needed to grab hiccup by the foot to save him. [the HTTYD wiki: "The exact nature of the injury that caused Hiccup to lose only his left leg while falling into the Red Death's inferno has never been specified. The two most popular theories are that Toothless unintentionally injured Hiccup when grabbing him to protect him from the fire, or his leg was severely burned before Toothless could reach him."]
