Ahh, right, they're making a sequel. I can't tell whether I'm happy or not. I liked the original, so I'm intrigued, (:P I like too many kids' movies) but it could either be really good, really bad, or... meh. If it's either of the latter, it'd be a big let down.
Considering their extra stuff these days... well, "the gift of the night fury" was passable. (Toothless intentionally giving up his freedom to be with Hiccup? Sappy, but I liked it.) The bone-knapper... was just entertaining because of Gobber's ridiculous stories and that's about it. The TV show? >_>' ... No. Just no.
The funny thing is that their franchise seems like it's mirroring Kung-Fu Panda (crappy TV show, sappy holiday special movies, somewhat passable mini-movies to keep the fans occupied,) KFP2 is, again, my proof that Dreamworks really can make a good sequel. (Surpassing the first of a series is usually quite a feat.) So, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I'm also curious about the fact that they decided to set the story 5 years in the future.
