I still remember watching How to Train Your Dragon 1 in the summer of 2010. We just finished the college entrance examination and rushed into the cinema to watch the first movie, full of surprises. A world with dragons looks beautiful. Toothless is so cute, how can such a cute dragon be slaughtered. He has fulfilled all the ultimate fantasies about pets. He can be cute, coquettish, handsome, and fight. He seems to be the only one in the world, and he can take it out to show off. Want to support, especially want to support.
"This is Berk. It snows nine months of the year, and hails the other three. Any food that grows here is tough and tasteless. The people that grow here are even more so. The only upsides are the pets. While other places have ponies or parrots, we have… dragons."
When How to Train Your Dragon 2 was released, it was the summer vacation of 2014. After graduating from a bachelor's degree, I couldn't watch the second movie in the cinema. When I came to the United States to study for graduate school, I missed the domestic release perfectly, and also missed the American release. The second part seems to be less of a surprise, although Toothless is still the same as always, even more forcefully acting cute and coquettish. Should dragons be domesticated like this? Should dragons be tamed as pets?
I have no idea. Is the second one really not as good as the first one? Maybe it's me?
After another five years, I finally waited for How to Train Your Dragon 3. In the winter of 2019, I lost the qualification to have winter and summer vacations for three years. I became a kid who pretended to be an adult to go to work every day, and the little friends who accompanied me to watch How to Train Your Dragon nine years ago were not around.
There is still a masked villain, there is still a task to complete, there is still a need for Toothless and Hiccup to save each other, there is still warm love, there is still a great adventure, there is still the pursuit of dreams, and there is still the growth of teenagers and Toothless .
However, the theme of this part is not only growth, but also separation.
Answered my question about watching the second part, should dragons be domesticated? Should dragons be pets?
Rather than pets, they are more friends and children.
Toothless found his beloved half, and dragons found an ideal hidden world; Hiccup overcame his dependence on Toothless and grew into a chief who could be on his own without dragons. When the story comes here, it inevitably leads to parting.
"You go, you leave me, it is safer than staying by my side. Our world does not deserve you."
All growth will lead to parting. Hiccup and Toothless have grown up together, and each other has achieved the strongest selves. Because they have grown up, they each have someone they want to protect; because they have grown up, they know that letting go can bring you a better tomorrow; because they have grown up, they have the ability to endure parting, so they have the ability to take risks alone.
The picture of untying the saddle rope is the most ferocious tear reaper in the whole film. Nine years, three movies, a wonderful world with dragons, is coming to an end.
But fortunately, after a long absence, we can always meet again; but fortunately, the ending of the cartoon will always give us a dream.
In the winter of 2019, I lost my qualification for winter and summer vacations for three years. I became a child who pretended to be an adult to go to work every day. The friends who accompanied me to watch How to Train Your Dragon nine years ago were not around. But they can talk on a WeChat, a place where they can make an appointment on a plane, and there are many new friends around me. Growth brings not only parting, but also love, and more love.
Many people do not believe in the existence of dragons, but we clearly remember that when we were young, we not only saw dragons, but also became friends with dragons and fought side by side. And now, they live in a fantastic hidden world.
"This is Berk. It snows nine months of the year, and hails the other three. Any food that grows here is tough and tasteless. The people that grow here are even more so. "
There are dragons in this world.
