What Zer0x said. But it's so lame that the people are saying that HTTYD was a horrible movie on the comments. Ugh... And somebody was commenting how people already know the "plot twist" (Valka) and how it ruins the movie. People don't really know anything about HTTYD2 if they think the Valka reveal ruins the movie. |

I know it will go down soon. There just no way that every critic will think that HTTYD2 is good. There's always that few critics that hate a certain kind of movie and will give it a low score, or in this case, give it a rotten rating. |

Nothing is in this signature, except this sentence describing that there is nothing in this signature. Seriously, I, [INSERT USERNAME HERE] have nothing to say here. Continue on with your viewing of not-so regularly scheduled posts. [INSERT CALMING, SUITABLE FOR READING MUSIC] Sorry to interrupt, I just wanna say....uh...what was I trying to say again? Never mind, continue reading. | |

To the best of my knowledge, no film since the invention of Rotten Tomatoes has actually managed a 100% rating. It could be coincidence, or it could just be the case that some film critics have realised that the site gives them the ability to gain instant publicity by going against the grain. |

Number of times I've watched the trailer: 18. My pet peeve: people who refer to complete strangers by their first name. The correct ways to refer to a "John Smith" whom you have never met are Smith, Mr Smith, or John Smith. Not "John". He's not your buddy. | |

Surprisingly, there are two films that have achieved this feat with over 100 reviews: Man on Wire (2008; 151 fresh) and Toy Story 2 (1999; 163 fresh). As for HTTYD 2, well... with reviews like this (5/10), I wouldn't hold my breath. |

Hmm, I knew Toy Story 2 had 100%, but I figured it was older than Rotten Tomatoes. I guess that site is older than I thought. Also, note to self: see Man on Wire. Any film that manages to get 100% on Rotten Tomatoes must be doing something right. |

I hate critics, they are so bipolar. American Hustle score on RT AND Metacritic made me lost fate on them.  They only like boring movies, overrate Pixar, and underrate DreamWorks movies (I will never forgive the score of The Road to El Dorado). On Metacritic the score of HTTYD is outrageous. If they already gave a bad score for the first movie, what can I wait for HTTYD2? 60 or 50's probably. |

I don't think i'm gonna get that heart melting, soul crushing emotion that I first got in the forbidden Friendship scene, but who cares? it'll still be moving, but this time, there gonna be more haRDCORE DRAGON RIDING AND ACTION AND BIGGER DRAGONS AND FIRE AND EPICNESS AND ASDFGHJKL IM SO EXCITED. |

I looked up the score out of curiosity. Now, I don't know offhand how Metacritic calculates the score (I would assume it's simply the average percentage from all qualifying reviews, but it could be something else), but 74% seems like a pretty darn good score. The thing to bear in mind is that these critics would have seen the basic story of HTTYD dozens of times before, so it's understandable that they wouldn't get hugely excited about it to the point of giving five-star reviews. Or, to phrase it a different way: the 98% on Rotten Tomatoes shows that critics overwhelmingly liked the movie; the 74% on Metacritic shows that considerably less loved it. Fair enough. |

Even if it doesn't have the same heart as the first movie; I don't care. It needs to fill up my heart in a different way, I don't expect or want the same outcome! I need something fresh, like this movie. [= It looks beautiful, I love the actors and characters, and the story gives me chills. xD Especially with Drago being the antagonist. He looks creepy! I don't care who dies, or whatever; it'll be the animation of a lifetime! :wub: |
