The trailer for the new How to Train Your Dragon movie has finally been revealed. This is the same movie that showed us the strange and heartwarming friendship between Toothless and Hiccup. That movie touched millions of hearts around the world. Now, DreamWorks has decided to make a live-action version of the movie. The trailer showed that this version will probably be just as interesting and fun as the first one. I feel like this new version will bring some new stories and exciting scenes. I watched the trailer and there was a lot of old stuff in it. Like, the huge Nordic island where the story starts. I’ve always loved those places.
The view of Berk in the sunlight was exactly like what we were shown in the animated movie. Listening to Gerard Butler‘s voice, I felt he would be perfect in the role of Hiccup again. “When you pick up this axe, you take us all with you,” he said. This quote felt exactly the same to me as it did before, giving a glimpse of Hiccup’s unique personality.
Some of the scenes shown in the movie were very interesting. Especially the scene where Hiccup decides to kill the dragon. But, when he sees Toothless, what happens in his eyes makes him stop. The moments shown in the trailer, like Hiccup and Toothless meeting for the first time, remind us of the old days.
One thing I really liked was the movie poster, which was released on the official @HTTYDragon page. The poster had something new, but still had a lot of what we loved. I think this new trailer is showing us that the live-action movie is completely in line with the animated movie. The relationship between Hiccup and Toothless will be the same old one. But, will this movie be completely the same? Will there be anything new in it? We will get the answers to these questions only next year.

Like in the last movie, Hiccup tries to kill a dragon to prove himself. But when he faces Toothless, he stops himself from doing so. It’s that old feeling that I always loved. The scene where Hiccup calmly walks up to Toothless and puts his hand on his snout is something I still remember. It’s the same thing that was shown in this trailer as well. Did you see that scene? It was exactly the same as shown in the animated film.
What I found even more interesting was the music that was heard at the end of the film. That music was exactly the same as in the first film, which was composed by John Powell. And now, he is going to compose the music for this film as well. Is this a hint that the film will follow the story faithfully? I guess, we will get the answer soon. With such hints in the trailer, it is clear that the track of the film will be the same but there will be some new changes. I am sure John Powell’s music will give us those old memories this time too.
The truth is that there will be a lot of things in this live-action film that will remind us of the first one. But, the trailers that have been shown so far are exactly what I expected. Something new, but still the same old. I hope that as the film builds up, we will see more interesting changes. Still, it is nice to see that the film has the same roots.
This trailer teaches me a lot. The story has the same old beautiful things, but with some new twists. I am sure that the new version of this film will be just as interesting as the first one. Anyway, this film based on the friendship between Toothless and Hiccup has always been very special. Whatever happens, this film will have the same interest as the first one. I am now finding it very difficult to wait for next year!
