chasmmi Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 The last 30 minutes or so of this are just... perfect. It's a strong front runner for potential best film of the year for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Saw it a few weeks ago and just watched it again. It's even better than I felt the first time. Easy to forget just how good the first half is, when the second half is so perfect, but really the whole film is great. The mating ritual scene truly, best film scene I've seen in ages. I strongly suspect this will be my film of the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brainbug Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 My favourite out of the three, honestly. Such a fitting and beautiful ending. The villain was weak, but he served his purpose and this film was more about the journey of our heroes to adulthood anyway. One of the most consistent and overall best trilogys of the decade.

JohnnyGossamer Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Easily the weak link of the three still a worthy conclusion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 This has aged poorly in my bed over the last three weeks. The ending is powerful, but everything up to that was...fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Lehnsherr Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Well I saw this is in January so my memory of the whole film is a tad fuzzy but I can definitely say that while predictable it ends the trilogy in a satisfying manner by focusing on the relationships of the characters which is why I love HTTYD in the first place.

DAJK Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Was originally going to check out Fighting With My Family next week as my weekend-movie. But I really do want to see this again to be honest. Easily the best movie of 2019 so far, and if it weren't for Spiderverse, I would say it is the best major studio animated film since Coco or Inside Out. The characters and world in this franchise are just so well-realized, and the movie is directed and written with such maturity. It does not treat its child audience as kids, but rather as people capable of grasping complex themes and emotions. And none of it is heavy-handed as well. This is a movie that kids today are going to grow up with and get more and more from it with each watch as they get older. Perfect way to end the franchise as well. By first having Hiccup face off against someone who represented himself had he made the choice to kill Toothless in the first movie (I made a post about that in the weekend thread), to finally having Hiccup and Toothless reuniting with their children many years later. Really very touching. My only regret is not watching parts 1 and 2 immediately before going to see this (I hadn't seen them in a few years, and most definitely would have shed some tears had they been fresh in my mind). The animation is incredible. Holy shit the sand when toothless was drawing in it. It looked REAL. Haven't been this impressed in animation since Moana. And the action sequences are truly exciting. Really really happy at how this is performing. Hopefully it can hold its own against Cap Marvel until Dumbo, and can leg it out to 200+. A!!!!!!!!!

aabattery Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 The ending is good for sure. Month and a bit on though and I really couldn't tell you what happened in the rest of the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 A beautiful, exhilarating, and emotional conclusion to the series. Neither 2 or The Hidden World match the surprisingly tall heights of the original, but this is definitely one of the more consistent and impressive movie trilogies ever.

John Marston Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 anyone think there was a bit a bit too much slapstick and focus on the other dragon riders who became rather annoying? Still a beautiful, emotional film though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndustriousAngel Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 7/10, B+ predictable (but nice) story, gorgeous totals, overstuffed close-ups, shaky and hyperactive action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Kinda boring, zoned out a couple times tbh. The dragon is still cute. F Murray Abraham as the villain I liked too. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
