Fun fact: Kit Harington (Jon Snow) tweeted a poster of this film with Hiccup, Astrid, their kids, and the dragons with the caption “I’m gonna tell my kids this is how Game of Thrones ended.” 🤣
I love how this trilogy is not scared of making sacrifices like that. First, Hiccup's leg, then his dad and lastly, Toothless. It's realistic that's probably why it really resonates with the audience.
Agreed. The older we get, the more our lives feel like chapters separated by the coming and going of the people and places we’re familiar with, and I think this trilogy does a surprisingly great job at recreating that feeling
I saw the first HTTYD in theaters shortly after I turned 7. Walking out, I told my parents that they HAD to make a sequel. My dad argued that there was nothing left in his story so there probably wouldn't be one. I saw the second HTTYD in theaters a few months after I turned 11. I walked out, smug smile on my face as my dad finally accepted that I had called the sequel as a 7 year old. "But don't expect a third one, there's actually no where else to go now, he's grown up." he said as I rambled on about where the story could go from there. I saw the third HTTYD in theaters for my 16th birthday. I walked out of the theaters crying and I turned to my dad, "That one. That was the end of the story." He agreed.
Ive had the exact same experience with my father, and ive also seen all 3 in theaters cried in all 3 , my friend u and i are so old now because i was also 7 when i saw the 1st one XD. Im glad to have grown up with this series an amazing 9 years of our lives
HTTYD was the first 3D movie I ever watched. I was 10 years old. For the screening of the final part I drove the car myself. A friend, his sister and me went to the Netherlands to watch it in English, because the closest cinema showing the OV was right across the border. We wanted to finish it in English, a language I didn't even speak a proper sentence of when I started the journey. Isn't it interesting how well you can document your life following an emotional story about a boy and his dragon?
"There were dragons... when I was a boy... Where they went, only a few know." For years on end, this simple sentence will cause people to spontaneously cry, and for good reason. This trilogy is a perfect emotional ride, and the closing out of the trilogy represents the loss of childhood innocence and the wistfulness that comes with it so well. None of us really understood until that moment that we were not ready for a world without dragons, and we will always feel their loss.
@@carl_consumer.of.reality Its part of a massive series by cressida cowell. The books are a completely different plot to the movies (mostly they just took the names) but both are excellent. Grew up listening to the audiobooks for them voice by david tennant.
My favorite quote from this movie was near the end when Hiccup sends Toothless and the other dragons to the hidden world. He says, "We don't deserve you...yet." This shows that Hiccup still has faith that humans and dragons can one day co-exist. Despite all the bad people he's met and fought with.
"There were dragons when i was a boy..." is how the first book starts, its the first words written. Its 80 year old hiccup who is recounting how he met Toothless as a boy to some little kids.. so amazing they were able to incorporate it into the movies so perfectly.
The shot of Toothless and Hiccup saying goodbye is exactly like the first time Hiccup touched Toothless in the first one but reversed. The symbolism of that shot made me cry even harder in the cinemas when I saw it because I instantly picked up on it. The first time it was them meeting, connecting, and beginning their journey together to discover who they are, the last time was them saying goodbye and instead of placing his hand on Toothless, it was him removing it. I absolutely loved this trilogy and thought it was wonderfully wrapped up and the call backs from the first movie made me feel very nostalgic since I followed this trilogy since I was a kid and loved watching these characters grow as I did. It was such a wonderful experience to see you guys fall in love with these movies that shaped my childhood and I'm really glad you enjoyed the ride. Fun fact: Toothless and the Light Fury's babies are called Nightlights.🥰
This is the perfect ending to a perfect trilogy. Filled with believable villains, thrilling action, and touching moments - true fans will love this end of an era.
I disagree about that. It was a great trilogy but perfect ending? Nah. They botched the ending. It was rushed and wasn't as good as the first 2. They had too much stuff to do in this movie and they weren't able to do it right. They really should've split it into 2 films and had it be a 4 film series
First movie: Dragons aren't evil, we can live with them in peace Second movie: There are people who want to use dragons for evil but we should try change their mind and work for a better future for both humans and dragons Third movie: Fuck it, we don't deserve dragons because one guy wants to hunt them all. Into the hole you go! That's the perfect ending? Really? Not to mention not even one dragon said "I don't want to go with Toothless, I love my human, I want to stay with them!". I call bs.

My favourite part about the movie is the little details. Like how the Light Fury shoots plasma and dives into it to superheat her scales and camouflage. And Toothless just becomes Raiden.
This was the perfect way to end the trilogy. As always, the animation, music, and flying sequences are incredible. I love how this movie focuses on Hiccup and Toothless as individuals. (Hiccup, struggling to lead the clan and realize that dragons need to be free and on their own, and Toothless, reconnecting with his own kind, finding a mate, and fulfilling his role as alpha.) I love all the new dragons introduced, the hidden world is gorgeous, Grimmel serves his purpose as a dark, alternate version of Hiccup really well, and the ending is so mature, bittersweet, and beautiful. I love that DreamWorks went in this direction. This is one of the few trilogies, in my opinion, where all three movies are undoubtedly amazing, and I couldn't be happier with it.
This is one of the rare cases where it's a really good movie with a perfect ending. There are some nitpicks and weaknesses compared to the first 2, but the last 20-30 minutes are such a perfect ending that it lifts the movie up to the level of emotional resonance the franchise is known for. Absolutely love this franchise
Ain't no way you said 2 is the weakest. 2 is great. 3 is easily an objectively less amazing movie than the other 2. Good. Not as good. The ending was perfect but the rest of it had some issues
This was such a sweet end to the movie Franchise. I loved this movie especially the new abilities of Toothless. What got me is at 38:56 that’s the transition of Hiccup and Toothless coming together and trusting each other, now he had to let him go. Fun facts: • How to Train Your Dragon is the first animated franchise in history to have three films or more and have all of them nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. • This film has the best opening weekend of the franchise with $55 million. It then only took 12 days to gross over $100 million domestically. • When Hiccup is making Toothless a tail that will allow him to fly on his own, Astrid says "you tried that once before; he didn't want it," which happened in Dragons: Gift of the Night Fury (2011).
I really don't think they should make this into a live-action remake. I think it's perfect the way it is. I'd see it, but I really don't think they should make it.
I agree mostly because the dragons here are both fearsome and lovable creatures, and I just don't think they can adapt that in live action. They will make the dragons look like GoT, and I'm sure it'll look great but not lovable great.
@@yolandag8436 Have you seen the How to Train Your Dragon Live Spectacular? They were able to make this dragons look realistic but still be fearsome and lovable.
@@Ay3shizzle Yep, Dean Deblois who wrote and directed all three of these movies is also writing and directing the live-action. That's the only reason I have some hope.
i also love how the first and "last" time hiccup touched toothless was him reaching his hand, that brought me back to the first time i watched the first movie
I was 28 when I saw this and I as well as every other adult in the theater were crying their eyes out just as hard as the kids. There is no reason to not include the How To Train Your Dragon trilogy among the greatest movie trilogies of all time.
This movie is by far the hardest i have cried to a film EVER. The how to train your dragon movies were already my favorite animated films of all time, but this one REALLY stuck with me because about 2 months prior to this films release, I had lost both my childhood dogs of 12 years in a span of half of year. That ending absolutely broke me into tears in the theater, and I was balling my eyes out for half an hour straight. It wasn't even at the part where the dragons had to leave, it was the scene where tootless and hiccup reunite and they do one final ride. The music playing when toothless recognizes hiccup is where i always break. One of the most perfect endings to ANY film ever made, and I cry hard every time I watch it. Hell, I'm crying to your guys' reaction. In my opinion, the greatest animated films of all time, and my favorite movie trilogy ever made.
Grimmel (while I hate his guts) is a great villain as he is what Hiccup would've become if Hiccup killed Toothless when they first met. This was also confirmed by the director Deblois to be the case.
You know its even more sad when u realize it but i wasn't one of the people who watched the 3 movies one after the other, i watched everything in order as a child. The 1st movie when i was 7, the shorts the 1 series two seasons long, then the 2nd movie at 11 yrs, the 2nd series 6 seasons long and then finally the 3rd movie at age 16. 9 Years. Even before i saw it when i heard it was the last one i cried for days and counted down the months only to then cry even more in theaters. And while you crying they hit you with the end credits , then the dams just burst. Im 20 yrs old now and Im still crying, weve left this series long with our childhood and im so blessed to have been a child when this series was out. and there has been a trend of people reacting to this series on youtube and you guys are by far my favourite i love this series and seeing u guys love it and cry for it too was just heartwarming. imagine how much more you guys wouldve cried if youll kept up with this whole franchise. I ask that you guys please react to everything else this franchise has to offer. I hope you guys will and ill be waiting.
This was nothing short of an epic, jaw dropping, emotional rollercoaster for us all. Glad you guys enjoyed this trilogy, really hope you give the tv series a try one day. It’s pretty good and connects the first and second movies through the years pretty well.
Let’s just sit and think about that sunset scene early on with Hiccup and Stoic years ago… reminiscent of Simba and Mufasa “everything the light touches is our kingdom” scene 💋 👨🏾🍳
Every major part of my life this series was here. I was 8 when first came out. I was 12 when the second one came out. And then I was 17. I love these movies.
I have seen this trilogy several times, watched countless reactions to it, and that end scene where toothless hugs hiccup with so much emotion, STILL makes me cry.
When Gregg says "this is Hiccup" he sounded like either Adam Sandler's Little Nikki or the scene in grownups when he goes "they pay with maze" and I LOVE IT!!!
Thank you for not only my childhood memeories but reacting to one of greatest movie trilogies to ever exist. Not even animated just one of the greatest trilogies in general
This was just such a good trilogy i still remember how much i cried when hiccup did the last roar to round all the dragons up and go to the hidden world
I saw all three films thousands times, but I still cry my eyes off every time I see it. Seeing all this comments is making me cry even harder right now. HTTYD feels like home to me, it is my home. Forever.
Great reaction guys! This movie really is a beautiful and emotional end to the Dragons trilogy. To this day I’m sad it’s over but at least they ended it with a bang and the journey’s been epic. The movie does make a great message of how sometimes sacrifices need to be made even if they’re hard ones for the greater good. Man I can’t stop crying at this movie. What a masterpiece trilogy about a beautiful relationship between Hiccup and his dragon Toothless.
I watched this in theaters when it came out and went with my sister. I sobbed like a baby, I was heavily depressed for like a month or two after that lmfao. I grew up with this trilogy so Hiccup letting him go live his life was incredibly moving.
This movie was gorgeous in the cinema, I'm so glad I got to see all three of them on the big screen. The art direction, the cinematography, the music, it's all amazing. I will always cherish the fact that I grew up with the characters too, the first movie came out as I entered highschool and the last came out after I finished university. If you guys want more context for the movies I definitely suggest watching the tv shows, they have amazing storylines as well.
The try not to cry challenge is right 😂😂 this by far one of the best trilogies ever. Every movie just has so much heart 😭 I re watched these recently and they hit me even more! I love seeing people react to seeing hiccups family its always so wholesome ❤️ This trilogy really is animation at its best. Some things and stories are best told and shown animated! 10/10 😭❤️
I saw the first and this one in theaters. I was 7 when I saw the original and was 17 when this one came out. Growing up with these characters and having to let them go at the end absolutely crushed my soul when I first saw it. These films are some of the only films to make me consistently cry every time I see them. I cannot say enough how much I love these films and how much they impacted me growing up.
This trilogy absolutely broke me but made me happy. It was one of the best animated films I have ever seen in my life❤ I'm a 43-year-old woman and I've seen a lot of animation but this is the best
I love how you watched httyd 1 2 and 3 together and that still brings the tears but I’ve been there for years through 1 2 race to the edge and 3 and this is the only movie I cried at 😂
I was 16 when I first saw the first HTTYD...on October 16, 2010, my parents and I rented it from Blockbuster's, so that dates me. By the end of the Forbidden Friendship scene in the first movie, I had fallen in love with this movie. Four years later, on June 13, 2014, I saw How To Train Your Dragon 2, not expecting to love Eret, Son Of Eret as much as I did, and still do, and not expecting to cry as much as I did. I was *bawling* in the theater. I had gotten spoiled on Tumblr about a certain scene in HTTYD2 (aka the scene that broke me; who caused Stoick's death), but I still just bawled. The execution of this, the voice work by Jay (Hiccup), Gerard (Stoick), Cate (Valka), and Craig (Gobber) (plus the rest of the cast), plus the animation and the score by the amazingly talented composing genius that is John Powell. It was a scene that I've held with me for the past nine years since I first saw it in theaters. As for Hidden World, my mom and I went to see it (as opposed to when I saw HTTYD2 alone) the day it opened, February 22, 2019. My mom cried more than I did, and I'm sure I would have cried more, had she not been there. Eret, Son Of Eret, from the day I "met" him, on June 13, 2014, I've loved him. I may never get the privilege to meet Kit Harington (the voice of Eret) or Dean DeBlois (the director of HTTYD), but I just want to commend the both of them for their beautiful work. Like I said, I didn't expect to love Eret as much as I do, and, go ahead, call me crazy, but, I do turn to Eret, Son Of Eret in times of need and comfort and sadness...he was "there" when my Grandma died, and I don't know what I would've done if he hadn't been there. Thank you for reading my novel of a comment (I'm an author, so I do get carried away), and I just wish that DreamWorks would make a series between the second and third movies, like they did with the series between the first and second movies, and I know I'm not alone in that sentiment.
When I tell you I squealed when the noti popped up!! I just know Greg will be a MESS!!💔💔💔💔💔 my heart breaks for the guy! Truly an amazing trilogy. Thank you for taking us in this journey with y’all
It’s a minor detail in comparison but i loved that Astrid kept riding her own dragon it further confirmed that the transformation and that it’s now about genuine profound connections between humans and dragons no longer an exploitative one. This series is perfection.
I commented something similar on the last one too, but I was a huge fan of the books growing up. These movies are NOTHING like the books, but they're incredible! I'm a huge fan of both the books and the movies! Hiccup's ending monologue, though, is straight from the books, so when I heard that for the first time, I SOBBED. It still makes me cry like a baby every time. It felt like my whole childhood was being wrapped up in a nice little bow, but every time I pick up one of the books or watch one of the movies, I get to revisit one of the best parts of my childhood.
yesss the ending of one of the best Dreamworks maybe one of the best animated trio movie we had 🥹 this movie was my childhood fr 😭 I remember when it came out my dad took me to the movies, now i’m grown n shit I don’t speak to my dad often, it sucks how much you can grow apart from yo parents but we know that love is still there 💙
After that first and second reaction (to the first and second movie) and seeing the emotional depth and knowledge you both had I had to INSTANTLY click this reaction
There was 1 short movie they made after the first HTTYD called Gift of the Night Fury. And it links to this part 20:25 where Hiccup made an auto-tail and Astrid says "you made it before, he didn't want it" as well as a bonus short film after the last movie titled How To Train Your Dragon: Homecoming. Would recommend you guys react or even just watch it for some pure wholesomeness and more dragon shenanigans 😊
HTTYD is my absolute favorite animated trilogy of all time. The storytelling (both verbal & visual), its character progression, the emotion, and obviously, its drop-dead gorgeous animation and cinematography. Having Roger Deakins involved with these films really added a whole new level of cinematic beauty. I watch this whole trilogy in one sitting every few months and it has never dropped in quality for me.
The first one came out when I was very very little, so growing up through the years and watching these movies was incredibly special. Gosh this trilogy was such a beautiful ride
All 3 of these movies are my favorite trilogys. I love them so much. Never seen you so emotional in a trilogy like this before Greg...but its well deserved. They are making a live action movie. Hope they dont screw it up
I remember looking at my dog after watching this and telling him “ you fall in love you better bring her home or stay single cause I am not letting you go😂.” Hell no that’s my baby.
Great reaction guys knew this movie would break you hard the 2nd one is my favoutire but this one is the perfect and bittersweet end to the trilogy i knew this one would break you even harder than the first because we have to say goodbye to Toothless and the dragons because humanity doesnt deserve them yet 😢love how this trilogy is so adult and all about sacrifice.I love how Toothless and Hiccups last moment is him hugging Hiccup and echos there first physical contact his nose leaving Hiccups hand 😭Also love how Toothless gets his happy ending meeting the Lightfury a cousin/subspecies to his and live as king and queen of the dragons!
This trilogy is my favorite. I watched the second and third movie in theater :") Truly magical. These movies left a forever lasting impression on me. I'm a sucker for great world and character building. HTTYD really SERVED everything I love about animation movie or movie in general. Love you guys' reactions!
Great reaction! My Sis-in-law named the Light Fury "Toothpaste", then you have "Toothless and Toothpaste"! Her 3 year old loved this movie and the Night- and Light Fury.
Really hope they do the live action movie justice. These movies thrived in the animation scene and its hard to think they can recapture that lightning for the live action.
I am so happy that they ended on the note that they still interacted with the dragons in some way, I found myself thinking the separation felt slightly too forced at the end, so the positive ending with the babies and dragon babies is so much more heart-warming saying that although they can't live together they can still get along and see one another as equals
The voice actor for Hiccup also stars in The Sorcerer's Apprentice with Nicolas Cage. Knowing that he voiced Hiccup there were parts that I was waiting for a dragon to show up. Pretty good watch all and all I feel.
I grew up with this and Ive never cried so hard at an ending. I watched the first movie in 2011, and the second one in theaters. All through elementary and middle school I watched the show which develops the world so well and you learn to just love everyone in Berk and the whole environment. I grew up with Hiccup and Toothless. I watched Hidden World when I was in High School. I unapologetically love this world of How to Train Your Dragon. It will always be in my heart
I adore the fact that the way they end it implies that the dragons were and are real, they just haven’t returned yet because we don’t deserve them. “Until the dragons can return, in peace”
I have always loved this trilogy. It is one of the few film sets I can watch over and over. Also just a small FYI the HTTYD TV series fills in the events in the years between the movies.
This is by far my favorite animated movie series. The story continues in the far future in Dragons The Nine Realms on Hulu. Not anywhere near as good as the movies. but still a cute series. HTTYD immediately drew ne in and held me throughout the series. So glad you covered them.
There was apparently a spin-off series set fire in the future happiness movie. The synopsis: Set 1,300 years after the events of How To Train Your Dragon, dragons are now just a legend to the modern world. When a geological anomaly opens up an immense, miles-deep fissure in the Earth’s surface, scientists from all over the world gather at a new research facility to study the mysterious phenomenon. Soon a group of misfit kids, brought to the site by their parents, uncover the truth about dragons and where they’ve been hiding - a secret they must keep to themselves to protect what they’ve discovered.
One thing I love about this trilogy is the message and how it matures with its audience. HTTYD 1 starts off with Hiccup as a tween finding himself, movie has a lighthearted and “kiddish” tone, with the audience most likely being kids. Five years later in HTTYD 2 we see Hiccup close to adulthood, who must accept growing up and to become chief, with the tone of the movie much darker and more mature, with the same kids who watched the first movie five years older. And Five more years later, HTTYD 3 is released, with those same kids who watched the first now adults, who must accept to let go of these beloved characters as the trilogy we all know and love comes to an end. How To Train Your Dragon is the Perfect Trilogy.
Not sure if you guys watch TV series, but there are a couple series that go in between the first two movies and one that takes place over 1000 years later in the modern day. They are called Dragons: Race to the Edge and Dragons: The Nine Realms, respectively. Both are pretty good, but Realms in particular suffers from a reduced budget in terms of spectacle.

I love that when hiccup starts being a wingman he is literally flapping his arms making him a wing-manning wing-man
Out of the 3, this one made me cry the most. As heavy as the last one was, there’s just something about the end that hits harder
This was the perfect way to end the trilogy. As always, the animation, music, and flying sequences are incredible. I love how this movie focuses on Hiccup and Toothless as individuals. (Hiccup, struggling to lead the clan and realize that dragons need to be free and on their own, and Toothless, reconnecting with his own kind, finding a mate, and fulfilling his role as alpha.) I love all the new dragons introduced, the hidden world is gorgeous, Grimmel serves his purpose as a dark, alternate version of Hiccup really well, and the ending is so mature, bittersweet, and beautiful. I love that DreamWorks went in this direction. This is one of the few trilogies, in my opinion, where all three movies are undoubtedly amazing, and I couldn't be happier with it.
This is one of the rare cases where it's a really good movie with a perfect ending. There are some nitpicks and weaknesses compared to the first 2, but the last 20-30 minutes are such a perfect ending that it lifts the movie up to the level of emotional resonance the franchise is known for. Absolutely love this franchise
Like it or not, 2 is objectively the weskest of the trilogy. But the HTTYD trilogy is still spectacular nonetheless.
Ain't no way you said 2 is the weakest. 2 is great. 3 is easily an objectively less amazing movie than the other 2. Good. Not as good. The ending was perfect but the rest of it had some issues
This was such a sweet end to the movie Franchise. I loved this movie especially the new abilities of Toothless. What got me is at 38:56 that’s the transition of Hiccup and Toothless coming together and trusting each other, now he had to let him go.
Fun facts:
• How to Train Your Dragon is the first animated franchise in history to have three films or more and have all of them nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
• This film has the best opening weekend of the franchise with $55 million. It then only took 12 days to gross over $100 million domestically.
• When Hiccup is making Toothless a tail that will allow him to fly on his own, Astrid says "you tried that once before; he didn't want it," which happened in Dragons: Gift of the Night Fury (2011).
This really is one of the best Trilogies of all time, so underrated
I really don't think they should make this into a live-action remake. I think it's perfect the way it is. I'd see it, but I really don't think they should make it.
I agree mostly because the dragons here are both fearsome and lovable creatures, and I just don't think they can adapt that in live action. They will make the dragons look like GoT, and I'm sure it'll look great but not lovable great.
@@yolandag8436 Have you seen the How to Train Your Dragon Live Spectacular? They were able to make this dragons look realistic but still be fearsome and lovable.
I see what you mean but the film’s director is involved with the live action remake so I’d say it’s in good hands.
@@Ay3shizzle Yep, Dean Deblois who wrote and directed all three of these movies is also writing and directing the live-action. That's the only reason I have some hope.
@@Ay3shizzle As I said, I'll watch it, but I hope it's good.
If you’re wondering Hiccup and Astrid’s children’s names
The girl’s name is Zephyr
The boy’s name is Nuffink
i also love how the first and "last" time hiccup touched toothless was him reaching his hand, that brought me back to the first time i watched the first movie
So happy that Greg and Tara reacted to this trilogy! This trilogy is so amazing and the best! 👍
I was 28 when I saw this and I as well as every other adult in the theater were crying their eyes out just as hard as the kids.
There is no reason to not include the How To Train Your Dragon trilogy among the greatest movie trilogies of all time.
This! Exactly 💯 this!!
This movie is by far the hardest i have cried to a film EVER. The how to train your dragon movies were already my favorite animated films of all time, but this one REALLY stuck with me because about 2 months prior to this films release, I had lost both my childhood dogs of 12 years in a span of half of year. That ending absolutely broke me into tears in the theater, and I was balling my eyes out for half an hour straight. It wasn't even at the part where the dragons had to leave, it was the scene where tootless and hiccup reunite and they do one final ride. The music playing when toothless recognizes hiccup is where i always break. One of the most perfect endings to ANY film ever made, and I cry hard every time I watch it. Hell, I'm crying to your guys' reaction. In my opinion, the greatest animated films of all time, and my favorite movie trilogy ever made.
Grimmel (while I hate his guts) is a great villain as he is what Hiccup would've become if Hiccup killed Toothless when they first met. This was also confirmed by the director Deblois to be the case.
You know its even more sad when u realize it but i wasn't one of the people who watched the 3 movies one after the other, i watched everything in order as a child. The 1st movie when i was 7, the shorts the 1 series two seasons long, then the 2nd movie at 11 yrs, the 2nd series 6 seasons long and then finally the 3rd movie at age 16. 9 Years. Even before i saw it when i heard it was the last one i cried for days and counted down the months only to then cry even more in theaters. And while you crying they hit you with the end credits , then the dams just burst. Im 20 yrs old now and Im still crying, weve left this series long with our childhood and im so blessed to have been a child when this series was out. and there has been a trend of people reacting to this series on youtube and you guys are by far my favourite i love this series and seeing u guys love it and cry for it too was just heartwarming. imagine how much more you guys wouldve cried if youll kept up with this whole franchise. I ask that you guys please react to everything else this franchise has to offer. I hope you guys will and ill be waiting.
I'll definitely be rewatching y'alls reactions to this trilogy often.
Yep here’s the reaction I was waiting for, crying like a baby now with you guys 🥺
This was nothing short of an epic, jaw dropping, emotional rollercoaster for us all. Glad you guys enjoyed this trilogy, really hope you give the tv series a try one day. It’s pretty good and connects the first and second movies through the years pretty well.
Let’s just sit and think about that sunset scene early on with Hiccup and Stoic years ago… reminiscent of Simba and Mufasa “everything the light touches is our kingdom” scene 💋 👨🏾🍳
Every major part of my life this series was here. I was 8 when first came out. I was 12 when the second one came out. And then I was 17. I love these movies.
No matter how many times that I’d watched. I still cry over these movies. My all time favorite movies.
This is honestly one of the best animated movie trilogies I have ever seen!
I have seen this trilogy several times, watched countless reactions to it, and that end scene where toothless hugs hiccup with so much emotion, STILL makes me cry.
The thumbnail to this video gives me so much joy despite how you guys are depicted in it
When Gregg says "this is Hiccup" he sounded like either Adam Sandler's Little Nikki or the scene in grownups when he goes "they pay with maze" and I LOVE IT!!!
oh my god in the patreon intro, I LITERALLY said "i sound more like Little Nicky" haha
I’m commenting bc I’m so damn happy they did this trilogy.
Thank you for not only my childhood memeories but reacting to one of greatest movie trilogies to ever exist. Not even animated just one of the greatest trilogies in general
This was just such a good trilogy
i still remember how much i cried when hiccup did the last roar to round all the dragons up and go to the hidden world
this one got me SOBBING! love the references, love the kids, love the friendship... it's just awesome
I saw all three films thousands times, but I still cry my eyes off every time I see it. Seeing all this comments is making me cry even harder right now. HTTYD feels like home to me, it is my home. Forever.
LET'S GO, MORE HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON!
Greg, you got such a good heart, man.
Great reaction guys! This movie really is a beautiful and emotional end to the Dragons trilogy. To this day I’m sad it’s over but at least they ended it with a bang and the journey’s been epic. The movie does make a great message of how sometimes sacrifices need to be made even if they’re hard ones for the greater good. Man I can’t stop crying at this movie. What a masterpiece trilogy about a beautiful relationship between Hiccup and his dragon Toothless.
I watched this in theaters when it came out and went with my sister. I sobbed like a baby, I was heavily depressed for like a month or two after that lmfao. I grew up with this trilogy so Hiccup letting him go live his life was incredibly moving.
This movie was gorgeous in the cinema, I'm so glad I got to see all three of them on the big screen. The art direction, the cinematography, the music, it's all amazing. I will always cherish the fact that I grew up with the characters too, the first movie came out as I entered highschool and the last came out after I finished university.
If you guys want more context for the movies I definitely suggest watching the tv shows, they have amazing storylines as well.
The try not to cry challenge is right 😂😂 this by far one of the best trilogies ever. Every movie just has so much heart 😭 I re watched these recently and they hit me even more!
I love seeing people react to seeing hiccups family its always so wholesome ❤️
This trilogy really is animation at its best. Some things and stories are best told and shown animated! 10/10 😭❤️
I need a good crying session every now and then.
PLEASE START THE RACE TO THE EDGE SERIES! You will love it. Much more Hiccup and Toothless in there
I saw the first and this one in theaters. I was 7 when I saw the original and was 17 when this one came out. Growing up with these characters and having to let them go at the end absolutely crushed my soul when I first saw it. These films are some of the only films to make me consistently cry every time I see them. I cannot say enough how much I love these films and how much they impacted me growing up.
i dont think ive ever seen you both this emotional at the same time. this was a very wholesome reaction. thank you!
This trilogy absolutely broke me but made me happy. It was one of the best animated films I have ever seen in my life❤ I'm a 43-year-old woman and I've seen a lot of animation but this is the best
This movie got me crying almost a hour 😭
I love how you watched httyd 1 2 and 3 together and that still brings the tears but I’ve been there for years through 1 2 race to the edge and 3 and this is the only movie I cried at 😂
I was 16 when I first saw the first HTTYD...on October 16, 2010, my parents and I rented it from Blockbuster's, so that dates me. By the end of the Forbidden Friendship scene in the first movie, I had fallen in love with this movie. Four years later, on June 13, 2014, I saw How To Train Your Dragon 2, not expecting to love Eret, Son Of Eret as much as I did, and still do, and not expecting to cry as much as I did. I was *bawling* in the theater. I had gotten spoiled on Tumblr about a certain scene in HTTYD2 (aka the scene that broke me; who caused Stoick's death), but I still just bawled. The execution of this, the voice work by Jay (Hiccup), Gerard (Stoick), Cate (Valka), and Craig (Gobber) (plus the rest of the cast), plus the animation and the score by the amazingly talented composing genius that is John Powell.
It was a scene that I've held with me for the past nine years since I first saw it in theaters. As for Hidden World, my mom and I went to see it (as opposed to when I saw HTTYD2 alone) the day it opened, February 22, 2019. My mom cried more than I did, and I'm sure I would have cried more, had she not been there. Eret, Son Of Eret, from the day I "met" him, on June 13, 2014, I've loved him. I may never get the privilege to meet Kit Harington (the voice of Eret) or Dean DeBlois (the director of HTTYD), but I just want to commend the both of them for their beautiful work. Like I said, I didn't expect to love Eret as much as I do, and, go ahead, call me crazy, but, I do turn to Eret, Son Of Eret in times of need and comfort and sadness...he was "there" when my Grandma died, and I don't know what I would've done if he hadn't been there.
Thank you for reading my novel of a comment (I'm an author, so I do get carried away), and I just wish that DreamWorks would make a series between the second and third movies, like they did with the series between the first and second movies, and I know I'm not alone in that sentiment.
I'm not sure if you're interested, but there is a christmas special called Homecoming that takes place right before Hiccup and Astrid vist toothless.
The baby dragons at the end are called Nightlights
When I tell you I squealed when the noti popped up!! I just know Greg will be a MESS!!💔💔💔💔💔 my heart breaks for the guy!
Truly an amazing trilogy.
Thank you for taking us in this
journey with y’all
It’s a minor detail in comparison but i loved that Astrid kept riding her own dragon it further confirmed that the transformation and that it’s now about genuine profound connections between humans and dragons no longer an exploitative one. This series is perfection.
Now that you've seen all three, bask...bask in the feelings this emotional rollercoaster of a trilogy!!!
Glad you guys enjoyed the ride ❤
I commented something similar on the last one too, but I was a huge fan of the books growing up. These movies are NOTHING like the books, but they're incredible! I'm a huge fan of both the books and the movies! Hiccup's ending monologue, though, is straight from the books, so when I heard that for the first time, I SOBBED. It still makes me cry like a baby every time. It felt like my whole childhood was being wrapped up in a nice little bow, but every time I pick up one of the books or watch one of the movies, I get to revisit one of the best parts of my childhood.
yesss the ending of one of the best Dreamworks maybe one of the best animated trio movie we had 🥹 this movie was my childhood fr 😭 I remember when it came out my dad took me to the movies, now i’m grown n shit I don’t speak to my dad often, it sucks how much you can grow apart from yo parents but we know that love is still there 💙
After that first and second reaction (to the first and second movie) and seeing the emotional depth and knowledge you both had I had to INSTANTLY click this reaction
The parallel from when he first touches him to where they reverse it always gets me, I lose it every single time 🥺
There was 1 short movie they made after the first HTTYD called Gift of the Night Fury. And it links to this part 20:25 where Hiccup made an auto-tail and Astrid says "you made it before, he didn't want it" as well as a bonus short film after the last movie titled How To Train Your Dragon: Homecoming. Would recommend you guys react or even just watch it for some pure wholesomeness and more dragon shenanigans 😊
HTTYD is my absolute favorite animated trilogy of all time. The storytelling (both verbal & visual), its character progression, the emotion, and obviously, its drop-dead gorgeous animation and cinematography. Having Roger Deakins involved with these films really added a whole new level of cinematic beauty. I watch this whole trilogy in one sitting every few months and it has never dropped in quality for me.
The first one came out when I was very very little, so growing up through the years and watching these movies was incredibly special. Gosh this trilogy was such a beautiful ride
I saw the thumbnail and instantly knew this was gonna be a certified banger
an awesome, emotional, and heart breaking movie.
All 3 of these movies are my favorite trilogys. I love them so much. Never seen you so emotional in a trilogy like this before Greg...but its well deserved. They are making a live action movie. Hope they dont screw it up
I remember looking at my dog after watching this and telling him “ you fall in love you better bring her home or stay single cause I am not letting you go😂.” Hell no that’s my baby.
Great reaction guys knew this movie would break you hard the 2nd one is my favoutire but this one is the perfect and bittersweet end to the trilogy i knew this one would break you even harder than the first because we have to say goodbye to Toothless and the dragons because humanity doesnt deserve them yet 😢love how this trilogy is so adult and all about sacrifice.I love how Toothless and Hiccups last moment is him hugging Hiccup and echos there first physical contact his nose leaving Hiccups hand 😭Also love how Toothless gets his happy ending meeting the Lightfury a cousin/subspecies to his and live as king and queen of the dragons!
35:27 Hicup was ready to die for his best buddy to have a good life that parts always gets me
This trilogy is one of THE best, ever!
I can´t explain how much I love How to Train your Dragon
Man I bawled hard at the end. We are ready yet for dragons to return.
This trilogy is my favorite. I watched the second and third movie in theater :") Truly magical. These movies left a forever lasting impression on me. I'm a sucker for great world and character building. HTTYD really SERVED everything I love about animation movie or movie in general. Love you guys' reactions!
Great reaction! My Sis-in-law named the Light Fury "Toothpaste", then you have "Toothless and Toothpaste"! Her 3 year old loved this movie and the Night- and Light Fury.
“They should do how to train your dragon 2025” “in the modern day” well.. how do I say this.
Really hope they do the live action movie justice. These movies thrived in the animation scene and its hard to think they can recapture that lightning for the live action.
I am so happy that they ended on the note that they still interacted with the dragons in some way, I found myself thinking the separation felt slightly too forced at the end, so the positive ending with the babies and dragon babies is so much more heart-warming saying that although they can't live together they can still get along and see one another as equals
Greg you’re killing me!!!! Please have a box of tissues cause seeing you cry makes me sob!!!!! 😭😭😭😭 loved rewatching this with you guys! ❤
literally one of my favourite trilogies ever, httyd is simply beautiful
Been in a scream mood lately and that shirt is awesome. also just watched the other two reactions.
The voice actor for Hiccup also stars in The Sorcerer's Apprentice with Nicolas Cage. Knowing that he voiced Hiccup there were parts that I was waiting for a dragon to show up. Pretty good watch all and all I feel.
0:40 yooooo the rhyme! Greg is spittin’😂🔥
This still is one of the best trilogy movies ever made🙌
This is such a spectacular way to cap off the trilogy and honestly is one of the greatest 3rd films in any trilogy ever.
I don’t think I’ve ever cried harder during movies than I have with the HTTYD trilogy, especially this one. Such good stories, and an amazing trilogy!
I grew up with this and Ive never cried so hard at an ending. I watched the first movie in 2011, and the second one in theaters. All through elementary and middle school I watched the show which develops the world so well and you learn to just love everyone in Berk and the whole environment. I grew up with Hiccup and Toothless. I watched Hidden World when I was in High School. I unapologetically love this world of How to Train Your Dragon. It will always be in my heart
I adore the fact that the way they end it implies that the dragons were and are real, they just haven’t returned yet because we don’t deserve them. “Until the dragons can return, in peace”
And now we wait for the live action version
Considering what they said about it, NO, WE DON'T!
Who's we? They finna ruin it....
I have always loved this trilogy. It is one of the few film sets I can watch over and over. Also just a small FYI the HTTYD TV series fills in the events in the years between the movies.
This is why you guys have more than a million followers. I love you guys ❤
This is by far my favorite animated movie series. The story continues in the far future in Dragons The Nine Realms on Hulu. Not anywhere near as good as the movies. but still a cute series. HTTYD immediately drew ne in and held me throughout the series. So glad you covered them.
There was apparently a spin-off series set fire in the future happiness movie. The synopsis:
Set 1,300 years after the events of How To Train Your Dragon, dragons are now just a legend to the modern world. When a geological anomaly opens up an immense, miles-deep fissure in the Earth’s surface, scientists from all over the world gather at a new research facility to study the mysterious phenomenon. Soon a group of misfit kids, brought to the site by their parents, uncover the truth about dragons and where they’ve been hiding - a secret they must keep to themselves to protect what they’ve discovered.
The best part of finishing the trilogy is that I can loop the playlist for days!!
Thank you both for a wonderful adventure!
"They should have HTTYD in 2025."
You're to blame for Nine Realms. Get him!
Grimmel is the opposite of Hiccup. Drago the opposite of Stoick
I one hundred percent agree. Like stoick changed but drago didn't and grimmel kills night furies and hiccup didn't.
One thing I love about this trilogy is the message and how it matures with its audience.
HTTYD 1 starts off with Hiccup as a tween finding himself, movie has a lighthearted and “kiddish” tone, with the audience most likely being kids.
Five years later in HTTYD 2 we see Hiccup close to adulthood, who must accept growing up and to become chief, with the tone of the movie much darker and more mature, with the same kids who watched the first movie five years older.
And Five more years later, HTTYD 3 is released, with those same kids who watched the first now adults, who must accept to let go of these beloved characters as the trilogy we all know and love comes to an end.
How To Train Your Dragon is the Perfect Trilogy.
Not sure if you guys watch TV series, but there are a couple series that go in between the first two movies and one that takes place over 1000 years later in the modern day. They are called Dragons: Race to the Edge and Dragons: The Nine Realms, respectively. Both are pretty good, but Realms in particular suffers from a reduced budget in terms of spectacle.
