"How To Train Your Dragon 2" full movie has received mixed reviews from critics and fans alike. While most find the sequel good, it hasn't quite met the expectations thrown by Dreamworks.
Forbes contributor Scott Mendelson had this to say about the box office results, and why there was a certain expectation for the movie:
"Truth be told, I expected a bigger bump and a larger overall weekend. Despicable Me 2 jumped 48% from the original and Monsters University (admittedly with 12 years of inflation and 3D) jumped 31%. The question was just how much higher the sequel to the beloved original was supposed to climb compared to its predecessor. It's also below the $60m+ openings for Madagascar 2, Madagascar 3, and Kung Fu Panda, along with the $59m debut of Monsters Versus Aliens back in 2009. And its 2.7x weekend multiplier is well below the 3-3.5x DreamWorks Animation norm."
Despite bad reviews and unmet expectations, it seems that "How to Train Your Dragon 3" will definitely be a possibility as shared by Jay Baruchel (Hiccup) in an interview with Empire Online.
"The basement of this one has to be as good as the first one, ideally better. The best thing about the first movie was that it's fun, it's really charming and incredibly compelling, but also unexpectedly heavy at parts. And so all those same things are the essence of the second one, but amped up. The stakes are higher. We knew that we were doing our Empire Strikes Back."
"I have inklings, I kinda know where it's meant to go. I know where the books end up, I know some of the mile markers, I know what the end results will be," he added.
