Httyd Live Action - Blog Posts

gabriel better do my favorite twink (snotlout) justice or I'm sueing

HELP IT LOOKS LIKE THE EDITING WAS DONE WITH AI

Sure it’s soulless and only exists to be a lazy cashgrab but at least now it’s a REAL movie unlike that toddler cartoon /s

And what if I posted httyd art on here for the first time in 4 years to share my initial interpretation of the live action httyd looks and then dipped into the ether huh? What then???

That poor horse is on its third reincarnation and they're still kicking it to death 🤦‍♀️

is anyone else’s low key excited for the live action httyd or is it just me? Because like yeah it wasn’t needed like at all but I think it’s gonna be good at least better than some other live action movies. I just don’t get the hate.

WARNING: A loud scream at the end.

Wait, will there be a httyd2 life-action remake? Is this some kind of belated April Fool's Day prank or something?

Oh, there's so much about the life-action movie we've been having lately. First, the leaked frame with Toothless and Hiccup, then the first trailer (which I'll talk about much later), and now this photo from the filming, where we can see the local Astrid and Snotlout, which I'm going to talk about.

Astrid, for starters. I actually really like her design from her hairstyle to her armor. Yes, it doesn't look much like the design from the original movie, but damn, the new design is still very good. I don't even have the words to say how much I like it.

And also the armor design looks like something in between Hiccup's armor and Astrid's clothes from the second movie. I'm not the only one who sees the resemblance, right?

Among the disadvantages of Astrid's life-action image, I can note the absence of small skulls and spikes on clothes. Like, these are important details of her image, which well showed her sharp and belligerent nature. And the fact that they are not there makes me kinda sad. And this is purely a matter of taste, but I would like her to have a blue shirt, not a red one (I never liked her red shirt).

And now about Snotlout. I don't even know what to say about him. His clothing design is kinda meh. There is no hatred for the actor, but, as for me, he is too thin and small for the role of a big dumb bully. Like, I don't believe that this cute guy can bully other people, especially because of their physical strength and small build.

Like, in the original, Snotlout was such a standard of appearance and behavior of the Vikings of the Berk. Big and strong, and because of it, it doesn't matter that he's dumb. And his design emphasized this well.

And here... Meh.

In fact, he looks more like 16 years old Gustav than Snotlout.
