I honestly can’t think of another animated trilogy that ends like the How to Train Your Dragon trilogy does. Or at least, one that feels the same way as it does. Like, it can be compared to the end of Toy Story 3 when the toys have to say goodbye to Andy, but Toy Story is such a small scale when compared to How to Train Your Dragon, especially the second and third films. There’s more at stake in the HTTYD trilogy, with war and death and freedom and peace some of the major themes in all three films. And Toy Story isn’t over, since they’re making a fourth film. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World IS the end of the story. It’s over, whether we want it to be or not.
And the trilogy is more…cohesive than Toy Story. While I do like Toy Story and aren’t dragging it, it doesn’t have the depth of theme and symbolism and parallelism that the HTTYD films do. Not a criticism, just a statement of fact. So it’s not a good comparison.
The HTTYD trilogy reminds me a lot of the King Fu Panda trilogy in that respect. If you’ve never watched the KFP movies, I highly recommend them. They deal with similar issues of war and death and peace and freedom, but deal with them more fantastically and have a different feel to the ending. The thematic material and detail in the KFP trilogy is on a similar level to the HTTYD trilogy too. A lot of stuff about the odd one out having to accept themselves and their flaws and grow up, and about how their society and culture learn to accept and appreciate them for all their flaws as well. And the trilogy ends really well, narratively and thematically, so much so that like my eighth or ninth thought about KFP 3 was something to the effect of “if DreamWorks can make Kung Fu Panda end this well, then I have faith that they can end How to Train Your Dragon this well too.” And blah blah whatever fallacies I’m making in this statement because of the difference in production crews and studio brand and whatever, I still hold to this standard. If you loved the KFP trilogy and are a fan of HTTYD, I think you’ll also love how HTTYD 3 ends.
But even still, HTTYD 3 isn’t the same as KFP 3. It’s less fantastical, more grounded in reality. The original books are, by Cressida’s own admission, partially allegorical for environmentalist issues, and while I think the movies are less like that, there’s something to it in sentiment. And unlike KFP or Toy Story, the HTTYD trilogy is the story of two best friends from two different sides of a war. Even if their groups have reconciled, other people still fight that war and it has its impacts on Hiccup and Toothless. The main draw for me in these films is the relationship between Hiccup and Toothless, and I think that’s true for a lot of people.
I think that how HTTYD 3 addresses these concepts, friends from two sides of a war neither wants to wage, who grow up to be leaders in that war, is unlike any other animated trilogy I’ve ever watched. Honestly, pretty much unlike any other movie trilogy I’ve personally watched, to be that extreme about it. And tbh, I really hope that more people than just the hardcore fans realize how unique this trilogy is in the current moment of animated entertainment.

Shout out to Tom Holland & Jacob Elordi who did not conform to the norms of society & masculinity. Instead they said fuck it and went all out to make sure everyone knew they weren’t heteronormative unlike their counterparts especially in Tom’s case.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Places where reality is a bit altered:
• any target • churches in texas • abandoned 7/11’s • your bedroom at 5 am • hospitals at midnight • warehouses that smell like dust • lighthouses with lights that don’t work anymore • empty parking lots • ponds and lakes in suburban neighborhoods • rooftops in the early morning • inside a dark cabinet
playgrounds at night
rest stops on highways
deep in the mountains
early in the morning wherever it’s just snowed
trails by the highway just out of earshot of traffic
schools during breaks
those little beaches right next to ferry docks
bowling alleys
unfamiliar mcdonalds on long roadtrips
your friends living room once everybody but you is asleep
laundromats at midnight
what the fuck
galeries in art museums that are empty except for you
the lighting section of home depot
stairwells
•hospital waiting rooms •airports from midnight to 7am • bathrooms in small concert venues
I just got the weirdest feeling I swear
OK LISTEN THERE ARE REASONS FOR THIS!!!
A lot of these places are called liminal spaces - which means they are throughways from one space to the next. Places like rest stops, stairwells, trains, parking lots, waiting rooms, airports feel weird when you’re in them because their existence is not about themselves, but the things before and after them. They have no definitive place outside of their relationship to the spaces you are coming from and going to. Reality feels altered here because we’re not really supposed to be in them for a long time for think about them as their own entities, and when we do they seem odd and out of place.
The other spaces feel weird because our brains are hard-wired for context - we like things to belong to a certain place and time and when we experience those things outside of the context our brains have developed for them, our brains are like NOPE SHIT THIS ISN’T RIGHT GET OUT ABORT ABORT. Schools not in session, empty museums, being awake when other people are asleep - all these things and spaces feel weird because our brain is like “I already have a context for this space and this is not it so it must be dangerous.” Our rational understanding can sometimes override that immediate “danger” impulse but we’re still left with a feeling of wariness and unease.
Listen I am very passionate about liminal spaces they are fascinating stuff or perhaps I am merely a nerd.
Because so am I. <3
Liminal spaces are amazing, because they - and the associated discomfort - exist in lives as well as in the material world!
An anthropologist named Victor Turner developed the idea originally to describe the space in the middle of rituals where a person is neither what they began as, nor what they will end as – an initiate going through an induction ceremony, a person in the middle of their wedding ceremony, etc. It’s a space of total ambiguity existing between two named states, and it freaks us the hell out.
It’s one of the things that led to wedding parties, to pick a solid example – because a couple transitioning from single to married are vulnerable in the middle space and need protection.
That’s why something like this will hit different emotional notes than if he got eaten on the street, or in a combat zone:
Adulthood ceremonies are so prevalent in most cultures because of this idea as well - someone vulnerable, in the transition, no longer a child, not yet an adult, needs to be guided through the shift. We’ve lost a lot of these sacred moments in modern western culture (I had a bat mitzvah, but sweet sixteens have vanished from a lot of places, I think, as have debuts… the line between childhood and adulthood in the secular west has gotten reallllly blurry.) and I have a hunch that’s one of the reasons why things like wedding showers and baby showers now take on a whole new level of meaning / annoyance. Because we’re missing the other markers of transition.
This is brining back major nerd feels from my BA days of obsessing over psychogeographies and then into my MA with the sublime as liminal/transcendental experience. And oh my god now I want to talk about Lovecraft (because pretty much all of the environments above are relevant there… Plus Old Ones. They’re always relevant).
Ooh, look at that. I derailed the conversation.
Also… I’m adding multi-storey car parks. I’m obsessed with them. They are so weird.
anyone who says they would rather be an avenger than a guardian is a fool. the guardians go on constant outer space adventures with a talking tree set to 70’s dad music. plus they all love and would literally die for each other. what do the avengers do? assemble for five minutes then get into a walmart parking lot fight and never see each other again. fuck you.
