How To Train Your Dragon has a gay character!

Yay, it is going to shock homophobic brother that loves the movies

 

Cool! It looks like I'm gonna watch How To Train Your Dragon again...

 

Why the fuck did I think reading the comments on that article would be a good idea?

 

I like this news.

I dislike the comments though. I have to laugh that people think that one gay character shoves homosexuality down their throats (As if LGBT people aren't sick of heterosexuals doing the same thing) and that people are complaining about sex?! WTF?! The line is going to be extremely subtle and kids won't even catch on that he's gay to begin with.

 

That's pretty cool. ^.^

 

I fuckin love HTTYD so I find this to be pretty interesting

I just hope my mom doesn't find out about this because then she probably won't let me see HTTYD2 when it comes out

 

I've never seen HTTYD and had no interest in seeing the sequel, but I may go see it just because of this.

 

Yeah, that's great and everything, but I wish people would have OBVIOUS gay characters.

Like not just subtext, admitting later that it was kind of a gay thing...I won't be happy until it's as obvious that a character is gay as it is that most characters are straight.

 

This is pretty awesome ^.^

 

I loved How to Train Your Dragon, Toothless was so cute Nyu~! I'm going to have to watch again now to see if I can spot this Nyu~

 

I love HTTYD and have read the entire series it is (loosely) based off of, but this makes me think of Paranorman again. I love when movies do stuff like this. The comments are stupid, though.

 

I'm so happy to hear this, the haters can stay mad. I'm glad to see so much progress happening.

 

Tell me about it. If I hear the line "shoving it in people's faces" one more time. If you were an alien you'd think gay people must go round grinding on straight people whenever they are caught unaware.

In terms of the story. Good. Although I would have liked them to be a bit more brave and had the main character, Hiccup as gay rather than a comedy sidekick or supporting character. Still, little steps.

 

wow they are doing httyd2! I seriously need to pay more attention to the media lol I am totally going to see this movie and that line is like icing on the cake. I really enjoyed number one, it has to be one of my favorite animated movies (mulan taking the top) (no pun intended)

 

Well at least Hiccup and Astrid are good for encouraging a bit of diversity. Hiccup for being a male pacifist and sticking to his beliefs, and Astrid for being a "tomboy" (or rather just a strong female).

 

He subtly comes out in a way that 100% of kids wont understand and I bet at least 40% of adults won't get either, yet he is somehow corrupting young children's minds with his sexual perversion and deviancy and he's obviously forcing his sexuality down everyone's throats :icon_roll
