Hi... sort of new member (ex-lurker)

[Nate Fury]

Hello. My name is Nathan aka Nate Fury or Night Fury. You may pronounce Nate with an Australian accent so it sounds like "Night", but that's optional. I'm actually Canadian.

I love dragons, particularly Toothless. If Gobber's motto is "Vikings before dragons", then mine is "Dragons before Vikings". I actually love dragons more than humans.

I actually saw the HTTYD film on its opening day, even though I knew nothing about the books (I was looking forward to the film ever since I knew it was being directed by the directors of Lilo & Stitch). I saw the film a total of four times in theatres (twice in IMAX 3D, and twice in Real-D). I've also watched all of the series and specials multiple times, but I've only read the first book of the HTTYD series. I much prefer the movie over the book.

Yay, another Canadian! Welcome to the forum Nathan, I hope you enjoy your stay.

Hey! Yeah, I read a few of the books as well and find the movie vastly superior. However, I do not regret reading the books, as there are always a few cool nitpicks that are drawn from them that I can recognize. (Like Alvin the Treacherous, even though the character is the exact opposite in the books than what he is in the show). There are some interesting things that happen within though, like apparently Snotlout becomes chief (and acts like Dagur the Deranged about it) and the Green(Red) Death has a backstory back in the times of Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the first where an oracle tells him one named Hiccup will be his doom. Interesting stuff, I have not read this far into the series though, and don't really plan to.

One thing I read in an interview that almost depresses me though, is that "while the book and movie franchise separate widely in story, the endings will be the same, and it will explain why there are no dragons today."

I can already tell the ending of HTTYD 3 is going to kill me, just from that.
