I typed up a post for this week, but it’s very personal and I’m having a debate about  whether or not I should actually post it. Instead, I’m typing this up last minute. What could go wrong.
This weekend, I saw How to Train your Dragon: The Hidden World. The thing is, it’s not out in theaters for another 3 weeks. How did I manage to see an early screening you ask? I have connections 😉 

I actually just saw an add on TV, Facebook, email, and everywhere else, so I bought a ticket. Fandago was hosting an early screening event and anyone in the public could take advantage of it. (It sounds less impressive when I explain it). 
The film has a 8.1/10 rating on IMBD and 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. Dreamworks has accomplished something that has rarely been done before, especially for an animated kids movie – a great trilogy. I hesitate to add “kids” since the reason it has done so well it because it truly is a movie for everyone. The attention to detail with the animation is incredible. If you look closely, you’ll see Hiccup even has a subtle stubble for this movie. The emotional story lines and one liners jokes are pretty consistent with the standard from the first two iterations of the series. This is mostly thanks to the marvelous writers and great cast of actors involved in the process. Not to mention the soundtrack! Basically everyone who worked on the movie did awesome.

Without including any spoilers, it picks off where HTTYD 2 left off. The village of Berk is saving dragons, but realize they need a plan for what to do with the dragons after they are saved. Hiccup’s quest is to find the Hidden World (roll credits) of the dragons to take shelter from their new dragon hunter enemies. As you can tell from the posters and trailers, Toothless gets a girlfriend which leads to hilarious mating rituals and emotional depth. There’s also development between Hiccup and Astrid relationship as they work out how to led together.

I have so much to say about the ending, but I honestly don’t even want to describe it, good or bad. I want the full experience and not go in already knowing the jokes and plot. So, don’t look for any hints about the ending here. You know what…No….forget that..

IT WAS A PERFECT ENDING. P.E.R.F.E.C.T.

How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World opens everywhere Feb 22 and I highly encourage everyone to see it. I also encourage everyone to watch the other HTTYD movies if you haven’t yet causing they’ve been out for years and they’re amazing. 

Also, there is no end credit scene.
