Co-executive produced, written, and directed by Dean DeBlois, How To Train Your Dragon is the fantasy adventure film that is a shot-for-shot live-action remake of the 2010 animated film of the same name – itself loosely based on the 2003 novel by Cressida Cowell. On the rugged isle of Berk, a Viking boy named Hiccup defies centuries of tradition by befriending a dragon named Toothless. However, when an ancient threat emerges that endangers both species, Hiccup's friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future. Together, they must navigate the delicate path toward peace, soaring beyond the boundaries of their worlds and redefining what it means to be a hero and a leader. We break down all things re-imagining the animated film into live-action, the cast, the look of the dragons, and how this version does or doesn't differ from its previous version.

Well, well. It took a while but another major studio is now in the business of remaking animated classics. How to Train Your Dragon has meant a lot to me since I was a kid. The first film is near perfect, the second is an amazing follow up, and the third is a flawed but incredibly satisfying and deeply emotional farewell to Hiccup & Toothless. I've been lucky that Disney hasn't really been going after my childhood favorites, with the exception of The Lion King, to remake but now Universal and DreamWorks has dipped into my well of favorites. What piqued my curiosity very early on in the process of this film's development was that Dean DeBlois, director of all three of the animated films, was returning to tackle the live-action film, which was certainly a surprise. That being said, I have loved almost all the casting for this film and the trailers have certainly given me the nostalgic feels... but if you've listened to any of the episodes where I've discussed this film, you'll probably know that there has been one lingering question in my head: why? Why remake one of the only films that truly spawned a new franchise of the current generation. It seemed far too son, even for the nostalgic effect to be felt to its maximum. But of course, I went in hopeful and optimistic that Dean DeBlois could recapture the magic of the animated entries. Was he able to?

Min 5: "CÓMO ENTRENAR A TU DRAGÓN": A REINAR LA TAQUILLA La esperada versión en acción real, dirigida por Dean DeBlois (quien regresa tras la trilogía animada), adapta fielmente la primera entrega de la saga. Mason Thames encarna a Hipo, Nico Parker da vida a Astrid, y Gerard Butler retoma su papel como Stoick, esta vez en persona. La película cuenta con una producción de alto calibre: una cinta de 125 minutos, grabada en localizaciones reales, cinemática IMAX y banda sonora compuesta por John Powell. Algo más de dos horas de puro divertimento con una BSO optimizada del gran John Powell. NOTA EDC: 4 estrellas Min 16: SICARIOS DEL AIRE (FIGHT OR FLIGHT) Desenfrenada comedia de acción que convierte un vuelo internacional en una carnicería aérea repleta de sicarios, sangre y humor negro. Dirigida por James Madigan y protagonizada por un revitalizado Josh Hartnett, la película apuesta por el espectáculo sin pretensiones: peleas en espacios reducidos, diálogos afilados y un tono autorreferencial que recuerda a Bullet Train o Deadpool. Aunque su guión es superficial y los personajes apenas se desarrollan, su ritmo imparable, la química entre los protagonistas y el enfoque gamberro la convierten en una propuesta eficaz dentro del cine B contemporáneo. NOTA EDC: 2,5 estrellas Min 20: "VOTEMOS" Dirigido por Santiago?Requejo, es una tragicomedia coral que traslada al cine su corto y su obra teatral para explorar, a través de una junta de vecinos en Madrid que debía decidir la instalación de un ascensor, los prejuicios y el miedo hacia un nuevo inquilino con esquizofrenia paranoide. La cinta destaca por su guion ingenioso, su puesta en escena naturalista en espacio único y un reparto sólido—especialmente Clara?Lago, Tito?Valverde y Gonzalo?de?Castro—que, con sensibilidad, logra equilibrar el humor ácido y el drama social. Aunque recurre a algunos estereotipos generacionales y no evita cierta previsibilidad, el film funciona como espejo de nuestras propias contradicciones cotidianas, invitando a una reflexión sincera y necesaria sobre salud mental, empatía y convivencia. NOTA EDC: 3 estrellas Min 26: "ALGO LE PASA A MI YERNO" Dirigida por Arnaud Lemort y protagonizada por Christian Clavier, se trata de una comedia familiar ligera que aprovecha el encuentro incómodo entre un hijo político que resulta ser un antiguo paciente y su sobreprotector suegro psicoanalista en el marco de una celebración familiar. La película expone, con tono blanco y situaciones manidas, las tensiones generacionales y los clichés sobre las masculinidades, pero tropieza con un guión previsible y gags forzados que diluyen el potencial de su propuesta. NOTICIA EDC: 2,5 estrellas MIN 32: LA PRÓXIMA PELI DE TU VIDA: AGUSTÍN NOS PRESENTA "AMARGA NAVIDAD" Y esta semana, en este capítulo especial, cambiamos la sección de "La película de tu vida" por la que va a ser la próxima película de los hermanos Almodóvar. Agustín, productor de El Deseo, nos ha dejado sonidos del inicio del rodaje entre Madrid y Lanzarote y un mensaje personal con las claves del nuevo proyecto. Un adelanto exclusivo que coincide con el 40 cumpleaños de la productora que ha permitido a Pedro llevar sus sueños cinéfilos a lo más alto. Min 39: ESPECIAL BSO: 30 AÑOS DE "SOSPECHOSOS HABITUALES La banda sonora de "Sospechosos Habituales", que este 2025 cumple 30 años de su estreno, es una pieza clave en la atmósfera densa y engañosa de la película. Compuesta por John Ottman —que también se encargó del montaje, algo poco habitual en Hollywood—, la música destaca por su elegancia contenida, su estructura circular y su capacidad para insinuar más de lo que muestra. Las cuerdas y el piano conducen al espectador a través del misterio con una sutileza que acompaña el relato sin anticipar sus giros, funcionando como un hilo invisible que une los puntos sin resolver.

Continua la tendenza a riproporre grandi successi del cinema di animazione in versione live action. Questa volta è toccato a "Dragon Trainer", uscito nel 2010 per la regia di Dean DeBlois (nella foto), con Mason Thames, Nico Parker e Gerard Butler. È un esperimento un po' diverso da quelli di cui abbiamo già trattato perché si tratta quasi di un remake shot by shot “per cui il cartone animato quasi prende vita”, come ci dice Fiaba Di Martino, esperta di cinema di animazione di Film TV.Con il nostro Boris Sollazzo parliamo di "Ballerina", diretto da Len Wiseman, con Ana de Armas, Keanu Reeves (che è anche il produttore) e Lance Reddick e di "Volvereis", diretto da Jonàs Trueba, con Itsaso Arana, Francesco Carril e Andrés Gertrudix, un film che piacerà di sicuro a quanti hanno amato la serie “Dieci Capodanni”."In marcia con i lupi" è un film diretto da Jean-Michel Bertrand.

The ThawedCast: Conversations About Animation

Lara and Philip revisit the original 'Lilo & Stitch' from 2002. This was the feature animation debut for both directors, Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders, who would team up again on DreamWorks' 'How to Train Your Dragon' (2010). Chris Sanders had originally conceived the Stitch character in 1985, and he has gone on to voice the character in numerous appearances, beginning with the famous "Inter-Stich-als" promotional campaign for this film. He would later reprise the role for the 2025 live-action adaptation, directed by Dean Fleisher Camp. The story followed an escaped alien genetics experiment who crash lands in Hawaii. He poses as a dog and is adopted by recently orphaned sisters Lilo and Nani, but their difficult life seems to only take a turn for the worse with the addition of this new family member.

The Evolutionary Case for REAL DRAGONS!

Does It Fly?

How to Train Your Dragon is only the latest piece in a cultural puzzle that dates back thousands of years. How realistic are dragons, anyway?“While other places have ponies or parrots, we have…dragons.”When you think of modern day animated classics, the first projects that people tend to think of are the titans of Disney/Pixar. But under no circumstances should you sleep on the brilliant people at Dreamworks Animation who have their own share of legitimate masterpieces in the form of the Shrek franchise, last year's brilliant The Wild Robot, and the endlessly impressive How to Train Your Dragon franchise. And when it comes to the central concept of that franchise, dragons, well…the folks at Dreamworks have done it about as well as anybody ever has!Think about it. The use of dragons in storytelling far transcends the “pop culture” label. Forget movies, TV, and animation, there's literature, mythology, and something in our collective unconscious that compels us to keep returning to the familiar imagery associated with them. While we usually associate dragons with a particularly European flavor of fantasy, if you pick any culture or society, you'll probably find a dragon myth or story. That's how pervasive they are.Not only that, but they're timeless! Some of the biggest franchises of not just the last century, but this century, prominently feature dragons. Lord of the Rings, Dungeons & Dragons, Game of Thrones, and yes, How to Train Your Dragon are proof that some old-fashioned concepts never really go out of style. Is it possible that with a slight evolutionary shift we could have ended up with dragons crowding our skies? And why IS the dragon concept so universal, anyway?All this and more in the latest episode of Does it Fly? right here…https://youtu.be/Ww84E8udLrASUGGESTED VIEWING We based much of our discussion in this episode on the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, specifically How to Train Your Dragon, How to Train Your Dragon 2, and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. We hadn't seen the live action remake that's currently in theaters at the time of recording.But while we have your attention, we'd like to direct you to a nearly forgotten piece of dragon-related media. 1981's Dragonslayer is a remarkably dark piece of fantasy from a forgotten period where Disney was experimenting with more adult themes in its work. It's not quite Game of Thrones but there's plenty of gore and some sexy themes that you wouldn't expect. It's also the rare dragon flick that's genuinely scary at times!FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Flying Reptiles?!?While it's natural to think in terms of the pterodactyl when thinking of real world parallels to dragons, those weren't the only flying reptiles of that long ago age. But you might also want to consider a reptile that is still flying around today, the Draco lizard, when you wonder how dragons might eventually evolve. As long as they have hollow bones….Convergent Evolution and Evolutionary BottlenecksHakeem takes us on quite a journey as he tries to explain the processes by which dragons could have evolved. But two fo the key concepts involve evolutionary bottlenecks (which likely influenced human development) and the concept of convergent evolution, which would help explain why dragons were to develop very specific and distinctive traits (check out a bunch of real world examples right here).But What About Fire-Breathing?You might think that a fire-breathing dragon is far-fetched, but we'd like to remind you of the existence of the electric eel, the bombardier beetle, and the spitting cobra, all of which have distinctive self defense mechanisms that are pretty alien to humans. So the idea that a dragon could contain methanogens in its gut that provide the fuel for a fire might not be that far-fetched after all!Read the Books!A quick reminder that the How to Train Your Dragon movies were based on a book series by Cressida Cowell. Check ‘em out!“We have wonder…”That lovely quote from Dean Deblois that Tamara found comes from the documentary special feature, Where No One Goes: The Making of How to Train Your Dragon 2, which covers a lot more ground than just that second movie!The Hero's JourneyAs Tamara points out, if you haven't read Joseph Campbell's The Hero's Journey, that will unlock so many touchpoints in the stories you love that you won't look at your favorite franchise the same way again!WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?For some of our other takes on excellent modern animation, check out our episodes on The Incredibles and Big Hero 6!Need more Does it Fly? fantasy deep dives in your life?

As the son of the king (Gerard Butler), he is expected to exhibit bravery, brutality and, most importantly, kill dragons to protect his village. But Hiccup believes there's another way and, after forming an impossible friendship with a Nightfury, attempts to chart a new path for his people. In this 1on1, we speak to DeBlois about making the jump to live action and the challenges of listening to the next generation.

Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to director Dean DeBlois about his new film How To Train Your Dragon.  From three-time Oscar® nominee and Golden Globe winner Dean DeBlois, the creative visionary behind DreamWorks Animation's acclaimed How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, comes a stunning live-action reimagining of the film that launched the beloved franchise.  On the rugged isle of Berk, where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations, Hiccup (Mason Thames; The Black Phone, For All Mankind) stands apart. The inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler, reprising his voice role from the animated franchise), Hiccup defies centuries of tradition when he befriends Toothless, a feared Night Fury dragon. Their unlikely bond reveals the true nature of dragons, challenging the very foundations of Viking society.  With the fierce and ambitious Astrid (BAFTA nominee Nico Parker; Dumbo, The Last of Us) and the village's quirky blacksmith Gobber (Nick Frost; Snow White and the Huntsman, Shaun of the Dead) by his side, Hiccup confronts a world torn by fear and misunderstanding.  As an ancient threat emerges, endangering both Vikings and dragons, Hiccup's friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future. Together, they must navigate the delicate path toward peace, soaring beyond the boundaries of their worlds and redefining what it means to be a hero and a leader.  If you'd like to send us a voice memo for use in a future episode, please email podcast@picturehouses.co.uk.

Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, this week with special guests Deirdre Molumby and Graham Day, The 250 is a (mostly) weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released every second Saturday at 6pm GMT, with the occasional bonus episode between them. This week, Chris Sanders' and Dean DeBlois' How to Train Your Dragon. On the island of Berk, the Viking settlers have found themselves engaged in a war against dragons spanning literal generations. Hiccup, the son of the town chieftain, struggles to find his place in a community that doesn't value his unique strengths and attributes - he wonders whether he will even be manly enough to hunt and kill dragons. However, a chance encounter with a fallen dragon named Toothless leads Hiccup to question everything that he thinks he knows about dragons. At time of recording, it was ranked 198th on the list of the best movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.

Just a mere two months after the "smash hit" that was Snow White, Disney is back with another live-action remake! Yay! Lily & Stitch, based on the 2002 animated classic from Dean Delois & Chris Sanders (How to Train Your Dragon), is now out in theaters globally and is sure to break a bunch of box office records over the weekend, as this is poised to be one of the biggest films of the year, let alone the summer. Up until a month ago, I hadn't seen the original in a good decade plus. Rewatching it, I definitely found it to be pretty damn charming and surpassingly emotional, even if it's not one of my favorite Disney movies, even of that time. Does the live-action remake live up to the original? Find out in this review!Lilo & Stitch:Directed by: Dean Fleischer CampWritten by: Chris Kekaniokalani Bright, Mike Van WaesBased on the 2002 animated film written by: Dean DeBlois, Chris SandersProduced by: Jonathan Eirich, p.g.a., Dan LinExecutive Producers: Ryan Halprin, Kurt Humphreys, Tom C.
