Real ones were sitting next to you when you wrote this blogpost. Less real ones haven't properly read your blog in a few months... sorry.
As always I love hearing about your connection with this franchise and it genuinely makes me want to watch the remake now. When I rewatched the first film with Kosie, I felt pretty sick because I was very not used to the rainy Welsh weather and caught a cold, but that night we did a double feature of (the original) Lilo and Stitch and How to Train Your Dragon that soothed me so much. It really is so good with just a tinge of that 2010's-ness like you mentioned about Hiccup lol.
I also think this piece in particular showcases how wonderful you are at structuring your writing. I knew most of the individual parts that were gonna be in this blog but actually reading through it, with one thing flowing so perfectly to the other, I was like "damn this is so good". Good structure is just one of my favorite things about reading/writing it feels so rewarding to experience.
Cara, if you don't start screening movies and writing reviews of new releases regularly, you'll be missing a great opportunity, given that you seem to have conquered the primal theatre fear that you used to harbor. You are an amazing reviewer!
