Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon

Hiccup and his friends embark on a quest to find the legendary Boneknapper dragon, which, as told by Gobber, tried to get him and his treasure numerous times. It's a short story from the "How to train your dragon" universe and although Toothless is missing, it manages to be quite entertaining through its cartoony inserts. It's finale is a laugh and predictable but it's a good short overall. Nothing out of the ordinary unfortunately.

Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (2010) is the first short film in the How to Train Your Dragon franchise and it was fun.

Positives for Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (2010): This short film does its job at giving you enough entertainment in this franchise. The Boneknapper Dragon is a cool idea and it looks good. The humor was very good. You get a solid chase sequence at the end. And finally, the ending was nice.

Negatives for Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (2010): This short film exists to capitalize on the success and fandom of the first movie in the franchise. I did have fun with this short film, but you can tell this was obviously a cash grab for DrewmWorks.

Overall, Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (2010) was a good short film on the How to Train Your Dragon franchise and that is cool.

Hey, it's great series, I liked it and it's fun. At the end of the day, that's the most important thing. For me, the smaller issues come because it's a 2010 series, but the story & stuff to it makes this a very solid peace to watch, the characters, stories, I feel like I hate heatable characters & feel empathic with the main characters, so overall everything sounds and looks amazing, I really don't want to speak more about it but the minimum required characters makes but because the series was that good, no need for random gibberish stuff, so, are you still reading this? Get out, it's an 8, get over it.

This animated short is a sequel to How to Train Your Dragon and released as a DVD extra.

The film follows Hiccup and his friends accompanying their mentor Gobber on a quest to kill the mythical Boneknapper Dragon.

The dragon is recalled by Gobber in some dubious stories which we see presented in traditional 2D animation. I presume using such as animation technique was also quicker and cheaper to produce.

The normal story is done in CGI. It is amusing enough for kids and I liked the voice acting of Craig Ferguson who plays Gobber the Belch.

This is a How to Train Your Dragon short. Gobber claims that a Boneknapper Dragon burned down his home. Nobody believes that species exists. Gobber sets off to find the elusive dragon which uses old dragon bones as armor. Hiccup and his friend join him to ensure his safety. Gobber tells them about hammerhead whales and hammerhead yaks in his previous encounters with his Boneknapper Dragon. This is good solid fun. It's absurd and funny. It fits the franchise nicely.
