The time has come dragon fans, the Dreamworks animated feature “How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World” is opening up today in theaters everywhere. We’ve supported the film over the last few months here on “The Chronicles” by showcasing the trailer reveals and the most recent one can be observed HERE in the event that you haven’t seen any of them. Before I send you off to the theaters, let’s take a look at the colorful Official Poster along with the premise and voice casting.
The Plot: One year after defending Berk from Drago, Hiccup and Toothless continue to rescue captured dragons in order to bring them back to Berk and create a bustling dragon and human utopia. Unfortunately, their efforts have also resulted in the island becoming severely overpopulated with dragons. In a response to the overcrowding, Hiccup desires to find the “Hidden World”, a safe haven for dragons that his late father Stoick told him about. Meanwhile, a white Fury[8] dragon, held captive by warlords, is given to infamous dragon hunter Grimmel the Grisly as bait for him to capture Toothless for the warlords’ use as an alpha. (c/o Wiki).

Piercing Ken Thoughts: As I’ve previously mentioned, I didn’t follow this franchise and still need to see the earlier films. Time prohibited me from getting to that between second trailer and opening day so I will be passing on this one for the duration. It sure looks like some family fun so I’d suggest that you bring the little ones along with you to enjoy some quality family time. Will you be hitting this one early or will you wait? Chime in down below as we like to know you are out there. Until next time.
