Hi again. In case anyone cares, here’s my HTTYD rant:

DOES ANYONE EVEN READ THE BOOKS?! THE MOVIES ARE SO UNLIKE THEM, AND WHENEVER YOU TALK ABOUT HTTYD THEY IMMEADIATELY ASSUME YOURE TALKING ABOUT THE MOVIES. THERE ARE BOOK TOO GUYS, AND THEY CAME FIRST. THE BOOKS ARE SO DEEP AND MOVING, AND THEY GET ABSOLUTELY NO CREDIT. NEITHER DOES CRESSIDA COWELL. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO CRESSIDA COWELL EVEN IS? YOU PROBABLY DONT, BECAUSE NO ONE TALKS OR READS THE BOOKS. SHES THE AUTHOR, THE ONE WHO ORIGINALLY WROTE ABOUT HICCUP. AND HER BOOKS ARE AMAZING. READ THEM. THEYRE THE BOOKS THAT MADE ME REREAD AND REREAD AND REREAD. THEYRE THE BOOKS THAT MADE ME CRY AT CERTAIN POINTS. THOSE ARE THE BOOKS THAT I READ WHEN IM SAD, OR ANGRY, OR HAPPY. THEYVE CALMED ME. BUT, THEY DONT GET CREDIT. THE MOVIE IS SO UNLIKE THE BOOKS, THE BOOKS WILL ALWAYS AND ALWAYS BE BETTER.

I don’t mean to offend anyone by posting this, honestly the movies are great. But it’s almost like they just took the name of the books and wiped away the plot. They took away Camicazi, my beloved Camicazi. They changed everything.
