How did Yea Forums like this (probably) last installment in the series?

I just watched it now, thought the villain was kind of meh, but the story was cute and funny and that ending was just terrific.

I didn't even realize it had come out, I honestly got surprised when they were announcing it on TV.

yeah, I had forgotten about the movies myself which is why I only just watched it. Figured Yea Forums would have some strong opinions on it at least.

It was pretty boring honestly. Toothless and Light Fury were the highlights.

I enjoyed this series as a whole. Shame it ended.

it did a great job with Hiccup and Toothless's relationship and Hiccup marrying Astrid
but then it also had the most boring HTTYD villain

I actually especially liked Hiccup and Astrid's relationship in this one compared to the second one where she felt completely neutered. So boring villain aside, at least the marriage felt good.

It's a solid 8/10 ending to a solid 8/10 trilogy. Which is rare in the animation industry.

The ending made me think of the Harry Potter ending for some reason. This one felt better but they were at the core the same thing. I think this one just did a better job of connecting the children back to the story with good visuals instead of just calling the kid Stoic Toothless or something.

I disagree. The ending was shit, and took a magical fantasy setting into a "we r unworthy stewards of dee errf" hippy crap cautionary tale, when the entire premise of the show was Hiccup bridging his people between human society and the power of nature aka the dragons. You don't end a series on a failure to uphold a primary moral of the narrative.

A decent movie and decent finale. Not as exciting an climactic as it should have been, but it still a good way to wrap up the saga.

Far more than can be said about the embarrassment that was Kung Fu Panda 3

I don't think he was saying his people unworthy, more like the entire world was. So he sacrificed his own peoples' bond with the dragons for the dragons safety, because they would always be under attack for them otherwise.

The very reason the dragons HAD to go away was due to Berk becoming over-populated, and dragon hunters threatening the villagers' peace. There was no other real reason, go rewatch the film.

>more like the entire world was
Who was left? They explicitly mention in the movie that the hunters are scattered, on the backfoot, and only organized as a response to Hiccup crating an one island empire on the backs of flying war-machines. The message of "humans arn't ready to live with dragons" is also doubly backhanded since we just watched the Birk islanders not only tolerate the dragons, but make friends, and become reliant on them. This is even with ignoring the show, which shows other tribes of humans living with dragons, and more importantly, dragons being apart of the natural ecosystem, as they were presented in the books and prior two films, and not glowing cave lizards from the center of the Earth.

They HAD to shoe horn the whole island overpopulation gimmick to attempt to justify the retcons made to the last two films, and it still contradicted itself in the same film. Dragons were fine living on their own before Hiccup, and it's ludicrous that the entire world's population of dragons somehow managed to get the eviction order and return to the underworld. Who sent the memo to all the undersea dragons we see?

It was all a heavy handed way to get an Ol' Yeller' moment and end the series.

>Who sent the memo to all the undersea dragons we see?
Sea turtles, surely.

>Who was left?
I can only guess that Hiccup was thinking more long term than just who was currently a threat, and even then it was just the ones that they knew of. Sure it was sort of just an excuse to end the series, but it wasn't a terrible one considering dragons are hunted or enslaved or both in literally every movie they've made.

As far as book lore goes, that's just going to happen between tv shows and book media. No excuse there but I more or less expect it.

I agree, it was honestly a really shit ending grandfathered down from the books that were a lot more traditional fairy tale like, here the leave really doesnt make sense if you give it any deeper thought.

Hiccup says they need to hide the dragons because more hunters may come, but thats a huge what-if, especially since Grimmel was so feared, news spreading of his defeat would surly scare away most and only strengthen the berkians resolve and establish Hiccup and Astrid as powerful rulers

I think the ending would have worked better if Grimmel wasnt defeated so thoroughly, or even if he managed to win partially, especially since they keep saying (usually Gobber literally telling the audience several times) "you'll face a problem you cant solve"
It feels like they were setting it up to have hiccup actually lose, but he goes through no worse than he did the last movies- hell at least Drago, as bland as he was, killed Stoick, that actually had weight, Grimmel had no on screen reason to fear him, just that he apparently killed all the nightfuries before any of the movies that we dont even get to see as a flash back or anything.

>considering dragons are hunted or enslaved or both in literally every movie they've made.
Except when they made friends with humans. *Which was the point of the series.* Also ignoring that the dragons hunted and waged war on humans, and were winning, until Hiccup tamed Toothless.

SO DID TOOTHLES FUCK THAT WHITE DRAGON OR NOT???

he stuck his big black knotted dragon dick in her glittery white dragon pussy in front of the whole town of Berk

What an alpha
