In the original toothless is a common green dragon with one tooth. Bro’s a sassy bastard and the whole point is that Hiccup has to be the hero with a severely lacking toolset.

    I have not seen the live action version. Was it good? Was it necessary?

    It just struck me that the 'live action' version of most movies are still like 90% CGI... Really the only thing not computer generated are the actors and even then, only mostly. What's even the difference at that point?

    It was good. It was almost a beat for beat, scene for scene remake. The only scene I specifically noticed being omitted was the one on the beach with the small dragons.

    It was almost like DreamWorks was telling Disney, "Hey, this is how you do it. Keep the story the same, and it works, dumb mouse."

    It also missed a few vital scenes. They cut down the movie to fit within an arbitrary time limit.

    I'm flabbergasted that they found a way to do a shot-for-shot remake wrong.

    Could make a "DLSS 5 on/off" meme with the top two pictures.

    And here I was looking for the source in the comments.

    Is the Animé a flavour of "thicc girl encourages perversions of socially awkward horny boy"? Because that's so blasé; it's overused.

    Surprisingly no. Those 2 depicted are just side characters and actually have a somewhat healthy relationship. And the main cast is generally not that sexualized.

    To be clear, the issue you point out does exist, just not with these 2 specific characters.

    Not really. Guy in the bottom picture is a minor character. The show largely centers around a dragon girl (not the one pictured) who arrives at the human world injured, gets saved by another girl who works as a programmer, and then moves in as her maid out of gratitude. Dragon girl falls in love with programmer girl due to the kindness she shows her.
