How to train your dragon


I went to watch How to train your dragon last night. 
It's a pretty good movie, I like it.  One bone I have to pick (if I really have to pick out one), is that the movie played up the "cuteness" factor into the main dragon design, that you can't help to just adore him as a pet.  Not only that he is cute, he is also the special one with power that no one else has!  At the same time, he is very cool looking.  There is just NO WAY that anybody could possibly dislike him.  The whole design set him up almost too perfect.  If he is anything but all of the above, I don't think it'll play out as well, the design need to make the audience go "AWWWWW~~~~".  I mean it just won't work if he looks like any of the other more evil looking, uglier dragons.
Admit it, the design is perfect to make into any type of toy kids will hug.

The main dragon reminds me so much of Disney's Stitch, witch is another extremly cute monster creature I abslutly love.
They both have the same basic design, big eyes that covers more then half of the face in proportion, with  no real jaw line and lots of not so sharp teeth.  Stitch can pop up his alien parts, and the dragon can pop out his teeth at well.  Personality, pretty much the same at large as well.
Nevertheless, it's still a good film, I like it.  I am not sure if I like it as much as lilo and stitch, I will have to watch it a couple more time to decide. 

If I can choose... I think I will go with the dragon as a pet....it's just soooooo much cooler to have a dragon as a pet.  Tho, if I could ride the space ship, it would be really cool too.  Might gets alittle too cold and dangerous flying on the back of the dragon, and my ear drum will burst if he accidentally fly too high.
Come to think of it, it's a tough choice...

oh, one more thing, as far as the dragon projectile weapon of mass destruction goes, I really think it's an alien dragon too, it's blue lighting lazer looking thingy!!  I bet he is probably from the same planet where stitch came from, that explain why they are both so extremely adorable, and both so alone in this planet call earth!
