Tonight on Damn You Hollywood!, Mark Radulich and Robert Winfree take flight with the live-action adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon! Based on the beloved DreamWorks animated trilogy and Cressida Cowell’s book series, this 2025 reimagining brings Hiccup, Toothless, and the Viking island of Berk into the realm of live-action fantasy.
Join us as we break down the casting choices, visual effects, faithfulness to the original, and whether this adaptation justifies its existence or rides on the coattails of nostalgia. Is Toothless still the most adorable dragon in cinema? Did the magic translate? We’ll answer all that and more—plus the usual box office analysis, critical response roundup, and plenty of laughs along the way.
