THE ROAD TO LIVE ACTION CONTINUES!! How to Train Your Dragon 2 Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Save & Invest In Your Future Today, visit: https://www.acorns.com/rejects With Dreamworks' Live Action Reimagining just around the corner, Aaron & John return to Berk for their How to Train Your Dragon 2 Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey as they return to Berk in DreamWorks Animation’s epic sequel How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014). Five years after uniting Vikings and dragons, Hiccup (Jay Baruchel, Entourage, This Is the End) and Toothless discover a hidden dragon utopia ruled by the mighty alpha Cloudjumper, voiced by Djimon Hounsou (Blood Diamond, Guardians of the Galaxy). Meanwhile, fearless Astrid (America Ferrera, Ugly Betty, Onward) leads dragon patrols—until vengeful dragon hunter Drago Bludvist (voiced by Djimon Hounsou in the UK release) threatens global domination with his ruthless armada of war dragons. When Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler, 300, Olympus Has Fallen) and Gobber (Craig Ferguson, The Late Late Show, How to Train Your Dragon) fall into peril, Hiccup must team up with lost dragon rider Valka (Cate Blanchett, Thor: Ragnarok, Blue Jasmine), whose mysterious past holds the key to Drago’s downfall. The film also features Kristen Wiig (as spunky Ruffnut), Jonah Hill (as Snotlout), and Christopher Mintz-Plasse (as Fishlegs) in standout turns. A-A-Ron & Johnald break down every soaring highlight—from the breathtaking forest rescue where Hiccup and Toothless learn to ride in perfect harmony, to the jaw-dropping final battle above Drago’s warship, and the tear-jerking midpoint reveal of Valka’s hidden sanctuary. Don’t miss their take on the film’s stunning animation, emotionally charged character arcs, and why the “Seize the Day” ensemble anthem remains one of the most searched-for moments in modern animation.
