Stormfly in particular, especially when watching what's going on when she's in the background. Like constantly running after Hiccup's sword every time Eret throws it away and bringing it back or how Stormfly and Toothless are playing with each other the whole time Hiccup and Astrid are talking.<br /><br />I absolutely understand what you're talking about with the ending, it wasn't really bad, but it didn't quite resonate the same way as the first one did. It did really leave me wanting to see where the writers will be taking the third one though what with all that's changed over the course of the movie and in the ending.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10454356109914144590noreply@blogger.com
