2 was alright but not as good as the original.

Bob Uecker had a cameo in this but I couldn't find a clip.

I see. I may spotlight them come sometime during Baseball season ;) Gosh, I never knew about O.C. & Stiggs from 1985 that has it's 40th Anniversary this year :shock:

Here's this.



Now, I did My own research about it, and you be correct, Bob Uecker does have a cameo. Consider all of this a tiny Birthday gift to you Packer ;)

This is where the pic came from.

Hmm, yeah, I didn't dig too far but a cursory search didn't uncover any photos. I was hoping he was in the trailer, but no.

Saw this trailer during the football games yesterday. My daughter loves the animated versions.

It's always like that. The part you want to see isn't in the trailer or the part you want to see most in the actual movie isn't in the movie as you gotta look for yourself, it becomes/became a deleted scene or something exclusive...either way it's just a big tease I learned a long while back and it's still happening as I type this :roll: :batsmh: :wwsmh: :smsmh:

Ah boy, How to Train You Dragon. First off, I'm glad your daughter loves the originals. I saw the original Trilogy at the show but I haven't seen them bonus ones yet. Now, I just saw a tiny bit about this recently as it was only an ad and I didn't watch it. What you posted was the first time that I seen that and yes, like Wresting, Football is a good way to see previews of something ;) Now with that being said, I'm like...this better have the same emotional feel & atmosphere as the first one because otherwise why do this when more effort could have been put toward something never done before.:?

Now, follow Me here. The original came out in 2010, it was a huge movie year, arguably the biggest, kinda like 1990 in a way and I was a big part of it. I went to the show and saw over 20 movies that whole year and that ain't no joke cause I don't joke around. It was a very busy year for Me. HTTYD was one of the big movies that I wanted to see that year. I posted some of the films that i saw that year like The Prince of Persia, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Legion, The Book of Eli with more coming soon as this was 15 years ago this year already :shock: I may revisit these sometime down the road. 2010 was THE last year of the old fashion film when theaters went straight to digital full time or at least that's the way it was at My Wehrenberg Theater at Ronnie's Theater that you saw in My Journeys Topic with that wonderful Arcade.

So, I was like wow when I saw the film. I knew it was going to be good. I was 29 when I saw it and I was glad that I did. The animation style is little stylish but it's fine and there was decent characters in it with a fun story. I liked how there such a unique aspect of the Dragons themselves. The promos posters of it was great.

Image

Gerald Butler was the star power of the film for Me. It's cool that he's in the remake as Hiccup's father once again :)

Image
Image

Now, one major aspect of the movie was the huge Mother Dragon who was very Kaiju-like. She better be in the live-action remake and be ginormous like she was in the first epic :!: She should have a presence like King Ghidorah :o

Image

Here's the classic trailer from 2010 :)



Now, here's a very important part which was the music. The composer was John Powell whom is one of Hans Zimmer's many colleagues. Powell is like your go-to guy for animated films as he's done a lot of them including the great Ice Age Franchise. He's also done great scores for movies such as Face/Off & X-Men III: The Last Stand which is one of the best scores ever. He was praised for his How to Train Your Dragon Score and the for the rest of the trilogy too. I was surprised that he was hired to do the score for the reboot which as I say which I'm not the only one, the score makes the movie so with him on-board, the movie should have a similar if not same feeling the original one did which I'm glad of that. Now. here's is three of John Powell's great Cues from the soundtrack of How to Train Your Dragon in 2010. It's so good and I love that quite which is so authentic sound of the Great White North and those times :)

For the longest time these were my daughter's favorite films. She's 16 now and believe it or not, her favorite movie is...



This Christmas was a heavy Back to the Future year of gifts for her, and just tonight she came home from the Things in Your Attic store with a DeLorean metal car and a NECA Marty McFly she bought herself.

That's amazing. I've talked about Back to the Future many times before :shock: Did she see the other 2 as well :?: You do know I'm a huge BTTF fan right :?: Don't forget that I showcased My VHS Tapes in My Odds & Ends ;) I was only 4 when the first one came out as it came out in 1985, 40 years ago this year :shock: I got into the franchise when BTTF II came out. I plan on spotlighting The Back to the Future Trilogy in time. Surely, she has talked to you about the score by Alan Silvestri right :?: Listen to this, this is the score that put him on the map :)



or at least mentioned Huey Leweis and the News's Power of Love :?:



What's here fave part of the film by the way and so forth :?:

I love Huey Lewis ever since BTTF and I heard his music on the 80s Alvin and the Chipmunks. Her love for the movie has just happened in the last years or so. She even one 1st place at local competition between multiple schools called Tech Wars for a short film she made with friends recreating scenes from the movie. She had a white jumpsuit and played Doc Brown while her friend was Marty. I even had to drive with them to the local mall after hours so we could film in the JC Penney parking lot. While she filmed out my passenger window, her friend drove his Hyundai through the parking lot at 35 miles power hour. She then used some computer program to edit it so the car had those blue sparks and it looked like it disappeared like in the movie. Don't ask me how, I'm too old, but it looked just like the film. I haven't seen the whole film she made yet, though. There was another night they were working on scenes outside Penneys but not driving and I was heading to the store so I asked if they wanted anything and they asked for some energy drinks. So when I got back they were all sitting in the car editing the scene on a laptop. So I parked near them and ran out of the car. As I got near my daughter lowered the passenger window and I said, "Ava, you've to come back with me. You have to go back to the future. It's your kids, Ava. Something has to be done about your kids!"



There doesn't seem to be a Chipmunks clip with the actual video, but I did find the sound.

Before I start talking, please play this great suite by Alan Silvestri from BTTF Part II while you read My post, you'll see a good picture of him when it first starts out :)



As you hear the wonderful BTTF theme, it's get's much darker in tone than the first one and if you know what happens in the movie then you know why. If Silvestri would have never done the score for the BTTF Trilogy, the movies would be so less fun than what they are, his music works so many wonders for it :!: Just imagine if those iconic & emotional scenes didn't have his music :shock: :!: Also, keep in mind, he's one of the great personalities of the 80s that gave us the BTTF Trilogy, Romancing the Stone, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Predator 1 & 2, The Mummy Returns, Van Helsing, Beowulf and so much more. He's one of the last of the original elites in movie music. Always keep that in mind.

That's incredible about her Packer and that she did all of that. Awesome about the JCPenny too. See, after hours and late at night is the best time for so much. Again with the old, have you forgot what K-SHE 95 says :?: Your never too old to rock plus what My signature says too, You never did tell Me her name. I mean many times when I talk & post about The Rock's daughter whom's name is Ava and is the GM in NXT, you never said anything about it :shock: It sounds like your daughter is got talent. She should treasure this video and make you copy so you can watch it over & over. Her fiend should be grateful to still have their Hyundai, don't forget, a reckless drunk totaled & destroyed My Grandma's red Accent Hyundai in 2017, her Garfield Express that had a ton of Garfield stuff hence why she called it that - that We never got any justice for, that was such a horrible time :x :batrage: :wwsmh: :smheat: That's great that you did that to her at the end there, she should be very proud of you. That's good about the Chipmunks too.

Okay, you got one more to go, the 3rd one has it's it's 35th Anniversary this year plus My fave theme as well ;)
