*How To Train Your Dragon 2* Made Me CRY TEARS OF ALL KIND.. 

I truly love the message that this movie conveys. While most children’s stories would tell you something like “anyone is capable of good” and that anyone’s mind can be changed, this movie took the very bold approach of showing that some men are beyond reasoning, and they will do as they want, no matter what you try.

"You're as beautiful as the day I lost you." Same voice said, "THIS IS SPARTA!"

“Your as beautiful as the day I lost you” That line destroys me every time 😢

13:42 I can see Astrid doing that to Snotlout quite a few times over the past five years....

This is a rare franchise where all 3 movies are actually great.

Astrid saying “Works every time” is a reference to when Hiccup and Toothless kidnapped and dropped her in the first movie. Before they went to dragon island, and saw the red death for the first time.

I feel for the alpha dragon that Drago uses to fight for him. For context, he stole an alpha dragon egg from Valka (at least that's what's hinted in the series) and abused it as it grew up. It followed Drago because it had no free will, and it ran from Toothless because it's fear of being hurt overpowered Drago's commands. And there's a fan-theory that the egg Drago stole came from the very alpha Valka was taken in by, meaning it was forced to kill it's parent. That one's not confirmed though, but either way, that dragon went through some stuff in this movie.

Stoic reuniting with his wife was the most heart wrenching scene for me, im so glad it ended on a happy note. I expected him to be angry, or bewildered, or stammering over himself, but the reaction we got I wouldn't ever change. Pure infatuation with a mild sense of fear, fear that she's moved on from him, or forgotten him. The singing, hoping/expecting her to call back was an incredibly romantic move for Stoic, which is a big character shift for him, then seeing her not respond initially and watching his soul get crushed forces me to cry everytime.

Flying With Mother has to be the best score in this movie. I love bagpipes, the christmas sort of theme, the use of a triangle and the fact that this scene was almost cancelled because of several scores didn’t work shows the dedication of John Powell that he never gives up for the best animated franchise ever. (The scene where Hiccup and Valka bond)

I've always loved the fact that Hiccup and Toothless' stories mirror each other. In the first movie they both learn that they can trust the other, in this movie they both become the Chief of their respective clans.

24:20 “Your chief is dead!” Shows how heartless Drago is. Even though Hiccup was the one he intended to kill but Stoic ended up dying instead, he doesn’t even care. He’s just glad he was able to hold power over the alpha and doesn’t care what he has to do, or who he has to kill, to do it.

"How often are you kidnapping and threatening people's lives?" She asked of the Vikings

Not only is this movie my favorite in the trilogy, but I honestly think it's one of the best animated films of the 2010's.

"a chief protects his own" toothless: oh, let me write that down real quick

I saw this movie right after I lost my father to cancer. The funeral scene had me openly crying in the theater. Like Hiccup, I can only hope to be as strong a man as my father was.

16:00 what makes this more impressive is that if you've watched the shows Hookfang is the most stubborn and uncooperative dragon. Hookfang bows to no one and Drago made him kneel.

When Astrid says, "It works every time," I think she is referring to when Hiccup and Toothless did that to her in the first movie. Also, the director confirmed that when Gobber said, "You see, this is why I never married. Well...this and one other thing." It's that Gobber is gay.

One of my absolute favourite animated movies! so glad you had a blast with it.

3:00 Very weird that Astrid and the others in this, are able to lift up a fully grown adult sheep like that 😂😂😂

fun fact Gobber was the one that was going to be killed originally but the director thought stoic would be more impactful.

When I first watched this it caught me so off guard finding out it was his mother flying beside him, as well the character development/growth of stoic was emotional and heart breaking having him pass just after they all reunite. ETA- if you think this movie was emotional just wait until you watch the 3rd one, deff pack up for the middle and end with at least two boxes of tissues cuz it's gunna have you emotionally up and down in the best way they could have done it in a movie.

Okay so, I remember watching another reactor seeing this scene and he was utterly unimpressed with the stunt Hiccup and Toothless pull off. I remember him clearly saying, "So what they just pull this trick off on the first attempt?" Of course he also got blasted in the comments where they reminded him that 5 YEARS had passed in between films AND that Hiccup literally says "Do you want to try this AGAIN?" Meaning that they've been practicing off screen. lol.

I recommend watching the entire Dreamworks Dragons series, whether you react to it or watch on your own time. It bridges the 5 year gap between HTTYD 1 & 2 and is a great show which is the right mixture of adventure, comedy, drama, romance, action, thriller, and mystery. The shows are: Riders of Berk (20 episodes) Defenders of Berk (20 episodes) Race to the Edge (78 episodes)

When I saw this movie at its release it made me cry too, the emotional scene with the Viking Funeral paired with the music, was heartbreaking. But pissed off Toothless retaliation with all the dragons was also invigorating!

They’re all about 20yrs old in this one so hiccup is about 15/16 yrs old which really shows how much of a runt he was

2 down, one to go😁 One of the best if not thee best animated trilogy's ever! My personal favorite has to be the music! Love your content V🤙🏽

Its always good to see your reactions they help alot. Keep up the good work VKunia

I was wondering if Astrid was referring to herself doing the whole 'drop it - fetch' routine before, or if she was referring to when Hiccup and Toothless yanked her up and dropped her in the tree in the first movie. Astrid was trying to scare Drago into not attacking by thinking he was outmatched...too bad he wasn't scared so it backfired.

If you want to see a bit more of stoick, i can really really recommend the race to the edge series. It is probably one of the best pieces of httyd content ever made (not the best because the second movie is the best lol)

I always thought Astrid's "Works every time" is a callback to how Toothless tossed her around until she agreed to hear Hicup out in the first movie

I absolutely love the contrast of the giant dragon in the first film and the one in this film. The first one lead with fear and made all the dragons bring him food but this one has created a safe place for the dragons and at feeding time he is the one who makes it rain fish so that he can feed all the dragons that follow him.

Since you’ve been enjoying the How to Train Your Dragon movies there actually was a series not sure if it’s still there called how to train your dragon riders of beerk which takes place in between the 1st and 2nd film which was pretty enjoyable imo

"We're so used to sad things, such a nice refresher..." Oh no...this is gonna hurt...

23:17 not a 'man dragon'. it's a 'woman dragon'

I can't quite remember exactly, but I have reason to believe that the Viking beside Stoic during the Intro Game scene was Snotlout's Father. He had the black hair and thin-ish beard. I've seen THAT Viking on multiple occasions and I think it was only in the show where he actually does or says anything. I want to say that that's where i learned about who he was. But like I said, i'm not certain and he COULD very well just be "Viking #7" lol.

The twins are sooo much funnier and amusing in the TV show, if you love them you will LOVE them in the show.

I'm so happy you're enjoying the movies so much! As always, thank you for your reaction, so relaxing to watch! And just you wait for the third one!

The way I could see that you were sort of emotionally tired towards the end of the movie is such a mood because I remember feeling wrung out emotionally in the theatre by the time we got to the climax :"D

A little sad dettail, the song for dancing and the dreaming (the song of valka and stoick) sounds in the funeral of stoick, slowed and with a touch of sadness, like its incomplete

I know this is like over 3 months old and noone cares anymore BUT the attention to detail in these movies is incredible too. One not so fun fact is the weapon Dago flails around. It's called a bullhook or also an elephant goad and it's a weapon that basically symbolizes animal abuse. It can be used in in an effective and meaningful way, but you know what people are like, especially in let's say India where there's a lot of straight up elephant abuse. Sometimes when the animal is raised this way, just showing it the bullhook and flailing it around is enough to get the animal do what you want, because it's subconsciously associating it with pain and fear which is EXACTLY what you're seeing with Dago's Bewilderbeast.

The thing I love most about Astrid is that once Hiccup finally won her over, she gave him full, unwavering support and loyalty. She would challenge him, but only to help him make sure he was making the best possible choices. Every man wants a wpman like that, with that kind of support.

1st point: watch the shorts if you haven’t, legend of the bonekapper , book of dragons, gift of the night fury for the first movie. ( this is the best order to watch them) 2nd point: watch the tv shows, riders of berk, defenders of Berk, race to the edge) and the Httyd 2 short is set between dob and rtte. 3rd point: the comment Gobber made about why he never married is because he is the first person in DreamWorks who is openly homosexual. Hope you enjoy Httyd as much as we do! Also we don’t necessarily expect you to post your reaction to the shorts and show, but that would be cool if you do!

Just because it's a cartoon and geared more towards children doesn't mean it can't make it adults emotional as hell I really did enjoy your reaction everybody cries at this movie

This is my favorite of the HTTYD trilogy. This movie just strengthened my desire to ride a dragon irl. Stoics funeral was a very beautiful scene to watch, the emotions, the acting, and the score were all 🔥🔥💯. A Viking funeral would be awesome to watch if it had that much emotion. It was also cool to see that Hiccup was basically born to be the Dragon Chief, cuz even as a baby he was playing/taming a dragon and then as an adult: he broke through an an alphas control, actually tamed the babys, and even got the respect of an alpha. Dude definitely has the soul of a dragon. Ok that's all, and one last thing, you looked gorgeous in the reaction.

We all were blown away by this movie, it's soooo good. Glad we got to see your reaction to it!

astrid and hiccup romance is so damn good

0:20 "Draining your dragon" used to be slang for urinating, I understand...

Seeing you say it's refreshing cos you're used to the sad stuff, when they were dancing etc, that was an ouch considering what we knew was coming next!

8:46 After watching this movie and the third (not to spoil anything btw), Ruffnut officially became my favorite character in this series. And it’s because of moments like this. She’s literally such a wildcard and it’s hilarious.

I haven't seen your videos for a while and I am very happy to see that you have picked up this wonderful trilogy. There was so much heart put into the story and the animation still holds up to this day. I am looking forward to seeing your reaction to the third film.

I cannot believe Hiccup tells Toothless to get away when he got mind controlled but it was still sad that Stoick got killed

I remember watching this movie with my friends in the cinema when it came out. I was sitting next to a young girl with what i think was autism, but her love for the movie was infectious. My friends looked at me wierd when she and i yelled "YEAH" severeal time during the movie. I could not stop myself. Made the movie much better for me at least.

if you didn't know there is a xmas short to this story line. I think it is a must watch.

Vicki, you're gonna need a full box of tissues for the 3rd one 😭

3:24 I love that diving sound 😍😍💯

You fumbling so many times in intro was just so hilarious....

1. How to drain your Dragon LMAO 2. RIP Stoick, enjoy Valhalla.

Historically Viking women had a lot of power! So it’s not so surprising Stoick listens to her!

Family reunion and then a loss of Stoick makes anyone cry lol. Now, Drago's weapon is actually taken from the tool used to train Elephants in India which is the bullhook. That is what is interesting.

I really live this movie, I love the entire franchise so much, I’ve been obsessed with it for over a decade. The second movie is extremely touching and never fails to make me cry. The fact that Valka and Stoick finally get reunited after 20 years of being apart, not knowing if the other one is still alive, and then Stoivk gets killed, saving his son from being murdered by his best friend. At Stoicks funeral, when Gobber says “May the Valkyries welcome you, and lead you through Odins great battlefield. Mag they sing your name with love and fury, so that we might hear it coming from the depths of Valhalla, so that we know that you’ve taken your rightful place at the tables of kings. For a great man has fallen. A warrior, A chieften, A father, A friend.” And then Hiccup continues by saying “I’m sorry dad. I’m not the chief that you wanted me to be, and I’m not the peacekeeper I thought I was. I don’t know” wich Valka follows by saying “ You came wary into this world. You were such a wee thing, so frail, so fragile. I feared you would’ve make it. But your father never doubted. He always said you’d become the strongest of them all, and he was right. You have the heart of a chief and the soul of a dragon. Only you can bring our worlds together, that is who you are, son” wich Hiccup then follows by saying “I was so afraid of becoming by dad, mostly because I thought I never could. How do you become someone that, great, that brave, that selfless. I guess, you can only try. A chief protects his own. We’re going back.” Never. Ever. Fails to make me cry.

I saw this with my nephews in a near empty theater a few weeks after it released, in that we were the only three people in the auditorium. It was a great time had by all.

Thank you so much for watching my favorite franchise of all time! It's been a while since I've watched the first movie (because, hey, I'm an Eret, Son Of Eret lover...despite being a lesbian IRL), but the second will always be my favorite, because that's the movie where I (knowingly) cried in the theater for the first time! Also, I've probably pointed this out at every single HTTYD2 reaction I've watched, buuuuut Eret, Son Of Eret shot an arrow with the others, respecting a chief that was never his! I love that detail! Also, side note: I'm going to attempt to watch this while I work on posting my (several) HTTYD fanfics to Wattpad (under QuietBeretWriter94...my OC's and Eret's ship name is Beret)! Anyway...Stoick's Ship never fails to make me cry, and Ellie Amaya made a cover of it called "Valka's Lament"...they have such an amazing voice, and I love John Powell's score work on the trilogy, as well as the animation by the crew, and the voice work by the cast!

Fortress of Solitude. Superman’s lair is called the Fortress of Solitude.

I saw someone comment on another HTTYD reaction video that the villains of these movies are essentially who Hiccup could have become had he made "the other" choice at key moments of his development. In this movie, Hiccup "controls" the dragons through love and acceptance, whereas Drago controls through fear and intimidation. And you'll see the third movie's.

This series only gets better & better each movie! You'd have to be made of stone not to be hit by the death of Stoic, made me tear up!

The Stoic death scene is heart ❤️ shredding, but the viking funeral pyre is sad but uplifting at same time.

they only been together for 2 years hiccup and astrid they started date when they where 18 you see it in race to the edge i cant tell how much i love these movies and the third movie take place a year after the second

PART 3 is even more beautiful with the dragons

I remember my dad and I went to see this movie in theaters. It was Father's Day when stoic died, it broke us. We were like the hell kind of father's day is this

I will not say do not weep for not all tears are an evil ... -Gandalf probably

so if you didnt know netflix has a series thats basically inbetween the first and the second movie explaining how they grew and alot of stuff like that so i just really recommend you to check that out

do you recognize the voice of the Handsome barbarian yet Vicky?? No?? Well it's Kit Harrington (John Snow). And the leader of the Barbarians is Djimon Hounsou

I absolutely love watching someone watch my favorite framchise amd go through all the same emotions i did

"Why am I crying?" Because this movie is an amazing sequel

I remember working at the video store and seeing "How to Drain Your Dragon" in the, ahem, section of the store.

Me: It's 2020 and cleaning my room and find my PSP. Also Me: " You're as beautiful as the day I lost you "

This movie makes me cry every time I see it 😢

The outtakes at the beginning almost had me doing a spit-gag.

Now that I've seen enough time of you beside her, you'd perfectly nail an Astrid cosplay

if you want, once you see the third part, you can also watch the series, you will find out what happened during the 5 years between the first and the second part there are lots of new dragons, the villains are really well done, you will see some of the characters from a much better angle than in the movie, you will meet some new amazing characters and a lot of the things you saw in the movie will be explained how it actually started, there will also be a lot of cute moments between Hiccup and Astrid, my favorite part of the series is race to the edge, but honestly it's really worth watching, I say this as a fan who got to know this franchise 10 years ago

Lots of heartwarming momments but big heartbreaking scenes. I love it.

i still love that you are finally watching this series. makes me so happy

The fan theory of the "other reason" that Gobber never married is that the only person he was ever interested in was already married to Valka.

13:40 "It works every time" she knows because it worked on her in the first movie

It was implied in the second movie and later confirmed to be a fact by director Dean DeBlois. Gobber is gay hence the statement from him about Marriage and "one other thing".

I really don't wanted Stoic wanted to die It's always makes me cry

Many people were angry that Hiccup's mom was spoiled in the trailer. Then when you watch the actual movie, you knew why. They wanted to distract you from the REAL shocker 😭

Not everyone is capable of changing or being reasond with. Some people when shown something that would change most minds, double down. Once they have decided to double down, you can no longer convince or reason with unseen

It's great how between movies, the character have gotten older

I love these movies! Great Reactions! :)

The other reason to why Gobber (that’s how it is spelled right?) never married is that he never found the right one. And why that is, is somewhat hinted at in the third movie (if you use a little extra imagination when seeing the scene. It’s towards the end)

Theres a pretty popular theory that drago's bewilderbeast was actually abused and too scared to go against dragos commands,with drago using a bullhook which was used to "train" elephants through abuse making this theory make more sense

f you want to see even more cool dragons, I highly recommend you watch the series. The show take place between 1 & 2. The show is just amazing. I really think you will like it. And if you like watching Astrid and Hiccup's relationship develop (since when have they been engaged, for example) then you just won’t be able to stop watching this series)))) There are 2 series: 1. Dreamworks Dragons: Riders/Defenders of Berk 2. Dreamworks Dragon: Race to the Edge

How to Dragon a Train is back guys

This movie always hits me in the feels.

23:24 if you listen closely, you can hear the tune of the song Stoik and Valka just sang. 😢

It cut to interval in theaters after Stoic fell. You've never heard a hall echo so loud with everyone crying

Stoick's death is the saddest death in a kid's film since Mufasa.

I love your reactions so much, just keep doing that amazing work

* Eret dramtically * "this is what he gave me last time I showed up emty-handed" "Looks like it healed😀👍" 😂
