    How to train your Dragon saved my life. I'll start out by saying I was 16 when HTTYD came out, so I was way too cool to watch it.
    Fast forward 10 years. I'm now less of a moody teenager and more of a depressed alcoholic 26 year old. I've gotten myself into a rut for the last five years, working all day and partying all night. I'm stuck living in a trailer in my parents' backyard to have some sort of freedom without the drag of rent. I'm also working two jobs just to afford my shifty lifestyle.
    The location of my trailer home took me just outside of the wifi reach, but I've got an Xbox that can play blurays. I spent the first month borrowing movies, so I had something different to sleep to every night.
    I eventually picked up a copy of HTTYD 2, which I lost an entire weekend watching on repeat, I had fallen in love with the series immediately. I was always a nerd at heart but was mostly too afraid to show it. When I picked up a copy of the first movie, everything changed as it had the ability to replay itself after it went to the menu.
    After about two weeks, my "friends" had gotten worried about me as nobody had seen me out in a while. A group of people show up, each carrying a case of beer. I was completely enthralled in the world of Vikings and Dragons. This wasn't interesting to most of them, so they left.
    I was left with two friends, sitting there watching HTTYD. The summer goes by, as we straight up spent the next two months playing Pokémon GO and retiring to my trailer to watch HTTYD. I had found my people and myself.
    It wasn't too much longer before I had moved in with one of the friends in a house that he bought. We had almost completely dropped the alcohol together and were beginning to grow as adults. We got into the series on Netflix and actually just let ourselves be nerds.
    Flash forward two more years, and he has to move to stay close to his child. I had just moved in with my new girlfriend and gotten one job that made as much as the two I had previously.
    Now, here we are, we were each others best men when we both got married last summer. Both of us are now working toward advancing our careers and growing our families.
    None of this would have turned out the way it did. In fact, I likely wouldn't be alive anymore if it didn't. My life had been saved, by how to train your Dragon.
    Now, I watch the shows with my young neices and nephews, and life is good.
    Stay nerdy, my friends.

      Camp Cretaceous shouldnt even be compared to Nine Realms. Camp answers plenty of guestions, explains plot holes and actually is very useful to the franchise and give some depth. Why Mosa didnt die from hunger? Explained. What happens to injured or sick dinos? Explained. Spino really have something personal against humans or his stalking was coincidence? Answered. Why Indominus rex is so perfectly created even tho she was the first hybrid? Answered. How good temperature of Island is kept for dinos? Explained. Overall I would go ahead and say it: Camp is needed. Also this show actually has good character development and cares about its story. But Nine realms? It literally doesn't give anything for the franchise. Absolutely anything.

Berk could have been wiped off the map by the Red Death and what could she have done to stop it from her dragon preserve? She left everyone to take their chances; she abandoned her responsibilities.

An archeologist searching for remains in an old Viking settlement in unearths a stone engraved with dragons and clues to find something. The archeologist decodes the clues and follows them one by one, eventually finding an old dragon egg preserved for centuries, and instructions on how to hatch it. This would include lots of lore from the movies, tv shows, and books, as well as being more amusing to the adults who grew up watching the original movie.

      Didn't illumination buy DreamWorks in 2016? 6 years after the production on "HTTYD: THW" began? I bet your ass these spin offs are thanks to the business practices of Illumination. With DreamWorks, it was art. And it would have ended there. But with Illumination's ONLY goal being money, seeing the series make dough, decided to reanimate the well-rested corpse and bludgeon it in hopes for another loaf of bread.
      I know DreamWorks was a money-focused company, but at least some talented writers on there knew when to finish their masterpieces.

    Httyd is an absolute masterpiece. There’s something about the Vikings era, the unique characters, and soundtrack that is so captivating. There’s also the plot with the forbidden friendship and overstepping boundaries, making way for a whole new future that’s full of adventure with an archipelago that’s been unexplored. It makes you feel like you’re stepping into a different world for the period of the movie. It isn’t just nostalgia for me, it’s a part of my childhood that I’ll hold onto forever.

It being in the modern world is also another…wrong?..thing for me, it doesn’t hit as much and doesn’t make me feel enticed to watch it, the animation also plays a part in this. Sure it’s more modern and all but the original way of the HTTYD movies and series just fits so much better.

But you can't do something like that and half-ass it. The invalidation of physics, the restructuring of society, the clash of different powers as they seek to control the dragons, the sudden thrusting of the main characters to a global stage as uneasy wardens of a frightening new power - all of this has great potential. But you have to acknowledge that potential and actually use it, which this show categorically fails to.

    Why didn't they just make Alexandria the main character then? She's got loads of character and has a cool background for an interesting story. (I know nothing about The Nine Realms so most of this is speculation based off this video.)
    Picture it:
    Alexandria, a shy agoraphobe who has a hard time making friends, is brought along on an expedition to scout out a potential demolition area. Maybe she's there because her parents are apart of the expedition team. She's deeply immersed in technology, maybe to the point that it's unhealthy. Alexandria refuses to socialize and shuts herself in her room to escape into her hobby.
    Then one day, her parents -- fed up with their daughter's habits -- take her with them on a brief sojourn outside into the forest. Nothing dangerous, just a sightseeing trip. All technology is banned as well. However, an accident occurs where the main villain (I suppose an investor kind of like Parker Selfridge from Avatar) ends up blowing up the area where Alexandria and her parents are hiking, out of impatience for visible results. Alexandria ends up falling into a sinkhole and is separated from her parents.
    She's injured her leg and can't move. This is her worst nightmare: being stuck outside in a dangerous spot without anything to help her. Alexandria starts to spiral into fear. But, who stumbles upon her but Feathers, the dragon?
    Dreamsworks could take the boy-takes-care-of-dragon trope from the first movie and turn it on its head. Instead, Feathers finds Alexandria and decides to take care of her. Alexandria is reasonably terrified, but eventually Feathers manages to coax her by giving her random food items like a dead fish and such, maybe chewing up some dragon herb and spitting it on her injured leg, and warming her at night when it gets really cold. Small comedic moments like that. Then she's returned to her home. But secretly, at night, she goes to visit her new friend.
    Feathers the dragon could also have a backstory that Alexandria finds out through the episodes. The dragon, due to its ability of invisibility, is maybe ostracized by the other dragons who prefer fight over flight. Feathers is rejected by the others and instead befriends a human who accepts Feathers for who they really are.
    In the end, Alexandria befriends the dragons, helps Feathers and the other dragons to become friends, ends up researching the dragons in secret, uses a combination of her new knowledge and her excellent abilities in modern technology to save the dragons and their secret, and also befriends the other kids who live on base with her.
    A girl who feels invisible finds a dragon who is invisible, and the two help each other to find their true place in the world.
    Anyways, I got way too excited and sappy about this concept. Unfortunately Dreamsworks only cares about pumping out repetitive garbage, so I have to make up more interesting ideas in my head.

    to be honest, i feel like yes the ''modern era'' is a good turn for the series, but i would've much rather had the great- grandaughters or grandsons of the original characters band together with the original dragons offspring to a new adventure, maybe rediscovering Berk after it was lost or, perhaps they would find their grandpas old journal of dragon logs and try and find them again, i feel like that wouldn't be too bad of a reboot right? but maybe not as an animated series, but as a movie
    if the original team add in the same animation style as the original trilogy instead, i feel like it would be amazing. So if they got the original writers of the trilogy back, as well as the animators/animation style of the original trology, i feel like it would be cool, plus the reviwes might be better if they actually listenined to their fans, and aiming the movie- if it were to become one, at an older audience, but at the same time attending to a younger audeince as well. i don't know, thats just my opinion.

    The second I left the theater after HTTYD 3, I went home and wrote a fanfic with a similar premise to this where it takes place in the present day. The main difference was the characters, the main character being a descendant of Hiccup who lives in Europe and became obsessed with learning about his ancestry and Norse mythology when he was a kid because he's worried that there isn't anything that makes him special and he hopes by learning more about his ancestors he'll be able to learn more about himself as well, blah blah blah something happens where the hidden world's safety is compromised and dragons are spotted in various areas near the hidden world's entrance and by watching news broadcasts about it the kid realizes the dragons look exactly like the drawings his great grandfather left behind and goes and finds a dragon at a beach near his house and does the forbidden friendship scene accept there are other people there witnessing it, kid and dragon go on an adventure to fix whatever's wrong with the Hidden World and learn that tHe TrUE mAgiC wAs inSiDE THem aLL ALonG bleh.
    Anyways, even though I liked the characters and their arcs, and it was probably ten times better than Nine Realms, I took one look at it and realized something: This story sucked ass, and there was no way to make it not suck ass. HTTYD was a perfect series set in the perfect time period for the story to take place and there was absolutely no reason to tamper with a series that already had a perfect ending and there was especially no reason to take the story into the modern world. I deleted the word file the story was saved on and got rid of the laptop I used to write it shortly afterwards. After all that, I had only one comfort: "At least Dreamworks would never be stupid enough to write a story like that."

    As someone who recently got into the httyd franchise and became very obsessed with it I have to say I will never ever bring myself to watch this. I personally think the time period in which the movies took place in added a lot of charm to the movie. If the movies took place in modern day I don’t think it would’ve hit as hard as it did because it doesn’t feel out of place that there was dragons back then you know? The spin of shows rider of Berk and defenders of Berk and race to the end I really like but that’s because all the characters that we’ve come to love have stayed the same, nothing changed and not only that but we are shown how the barks were able to build their relations to the dragons. We got to get more insight on the riders and their dragon relationship. These spin off shows (to me) work because they don’t change anything that’s been done or hasn’t been done but they give you more insight on a whole lot of things. Given the shows don’t have the best animation but everything else makes up for it and I’ve come to love the animation anyways. To me it felt like there was still heart and passion put into these shows. I was very skeptical of the shows and the second and third movie cause people now a days can’t leave well enough alone but me personally I’m glad those shows were made I love them and actually binged them. This one though I could already tell it wasn’t going to be the same. I knew that this shows was going to be the visual representation of what happens when you push a franchise to its limit. Anyways got was httyd and the spin off shows besides this one.

    This hurts me a little. I was born in 2005, I was a mere 5 years old when the first movie released. And I had that movie either on the year or within 3 years of release. It has been my favourite, most inspiring franchises. I loved HTTYD2 and T.H.W despite them being less great than the first- BUT THEY WERE STILL EXCELLENT. The films taking the idea of vikings was a great direction and them utilizing it in the three movies was great. When IU could watch snippets of Riders/defenders of berk when coming home I was ENTHRALLED. And RttE just filled me with joy. How every part of the show, despite some episodes clearly made for re-runs (think ATLA S1 episode that will NOT BE NAMED.), was truly respecting the original shows and the lore.
    I GREW UP with this franchise. And it changed me and made me cry more than any. Hiccup losing his leg BROKE ME even last week when revisiting. I related with Hiccup! I have been an outcast for the first 16yrs of my life due to unfortunate situations. I could sympathise with this kid who didn't fit in, like me, and was inspired how despite everything he became beloved for himself. And I was inspired by the sequels, enthralled by Hiccup's ingenuity and the advancements in the story. How To Train Your Dragon has been the most influential thing I had that would be around my full life. And my god, I am currently trying DESPERATELY to find riders/defenders of berk for free and in full so I can finally do what I couldn't as a kid: Learn about the full story.
    .... And then DreamWorks was bought by illumination.
    When I saw a glimpse of Dragon Riders, I knew I was in for deep shit. Something I loved most was the silent communication and how they could understand the dragons without words. (And as someone with ASD, even today I wish people could understand my intentions 100%.) And yet, they made them talk. I know that, apparently, because the kids grew up with them or something only THEY can understand them, but they still made the characters have VA's speaking human language. And Nine Realms being just a shitty rehash 1300 years later is EQUALLY annoying; Because they did nothing with it. They did NOTHING. You could have had the berkians either being a group that they are trying to discover along with the dragons (and some comments say find diaries of the OG cast) or learn about the downfall of their society. But no. It's just "HTTYD but 1300 years later and for BAAAABIIIEESS.

    What isn't there to love about an amazing story depicting a journey
    to overcome the struggles and the challenging ordeals that life can bring, in a way that not only portray's one horses indomitable willpower, the inexhaustible resolve to regain his freedom and the unshakeable tenacity to return to the family he was taken from, but of those he shared that adventure with, after finding a kindred soul in the young native whose situation parallels his own, with the mutual troubles they experienced throughout eventuallly culminating into a bond that you know is hard fought for on the human's part, but well earned and beautiful to witness in the end, as even when they part, it's with a friendship that not only transcends species, but will last a lifetime in their hearts.
    And DreamWorks decided to turn that masterpiece into a my little pony rip-off, that not only includes a character with all the charisma of a piece of paper and the likability of a rash, but also insults the very essence of the film at its core and ruins spirit as a character, destroying the nature of what he stood for.

    This is sad to see. The How To Train Your Dragon shows always felt on par with the movies in terms of story and characters. I still remember how excited my siblings and I would get when Netflix would say that a new season of Race to the Edge was coming soon, and how sad we were when it ended. I still go back and watch the old show, and the movies frequently. This show managed to capture exactly zero of that magic, and I stopped watching after the third episode because I just didn't care.

    honestly feel it would've been more interesting to go to slightly older time period before modern day, have someone new stumble onto the dragons, not just a rehash of all the good characters but made more shallow. I mean, think of all the other time periods around the world after the vikings we could've gotten a look at and how they interact with dragons.
