Scratches in disc from factory
The first copy I received had scratches in it from factory. They were small, but enough to cause hitches. Thanks to Amazon's amazing customer service, before I knew it another disc was on its way.What isn't surprising is that the movie is great, and that the video and audio quality is as good as it gets.

One of my Favorite Stories Ever
I have seen this at least six times. I will likely watch it several more times. Every time I watch it, I see something new that I hadn’t noticed before. I never feel the need to skip parts, either. There is a wealth of activity going on within the village island, along with village chatter which is highly entertaining. (Try turning on the subtitles to catch more going on around the main characters.)The story is of Hiccup, the smallest, most intellectual, and most unappreciated teen in the whole tribe, taking his place in the world of his people, and with a newly elevated stature.The characters are well played by the actors, and that includes their full animations. The story is fabulous, and Hiccup makes a mildly stoic yet ironic underdog protagonist who has communication issues with his great Viking father. But when Hiccup is catapulted into a wild adventure with a dragon, he leads his Viking villagers into new paths no one had ever imagined before.Hiccup and Toothless learn from each other and become fast friends. Toothless is one of my favorite characters ever. Perhaps it is because Toothless reminds me so much of a lithe graceful animal, half cat and half dog, who is part cosmic clown of cuteness and yet a fierce and lethal beast. To Hiccup, he becomes a loyal companion as they begin to rely on each other.If you haven't see this, please consider it. It's charming and yet fiercely Norse. And though I haven't yet seen the third of this series, the second is wonderful as well. I'm an adult, and yet my favorite movies are often animated features. I find the charm of these stories to be so much nicer than the dark and darker stuff out there now. So if you enjoy animated features, and you still haven't seen this one, you may find this to be a great start to a new adventure.

Worth the upgrade
This is a review of the new 4k release.1st I have to say this is one of my favorite animated movies. I have owned it on Blu-ray and 3D Blu-ray and now 4k.The 4k picture is brighter and the colors are much more intense. The opening scene where the village is under attack is a good example of how the HDR has made significant increases to the color depth. The fire the kids are trying to put out and the dragons themselves are much stronger reds and oranges.There is a small uptick in texture for example Gobbler's various hands are more detailed and Stoic's clothing and hair are more defined.The new DTS:X soundtrack is very good and the new mix makes good use of overhead speakers. You are able to hear dragon's fly from one side of the room to the other. The deeper end seems to be boosted as well. Explosions have more weight to them and while they don't rattle the room they are very good.For me it's definitely worth the upgrade if you have the equipment to enjoy it.

An absolute wonder in HDR
The How to Train your Dragon Trilogy is filled with vivid imagery, a warm palette and ground shaking sound effects. The previous blurays were already superb, but this is something else !The HDR fills the screen with incomparable mastery. Colors and contrasts do the stunning visuals justice.A must-own.
