i just saw a post talking about this absolute beast
and i wanted to point out my favorite similarities to this absolute beast
the Red Death and the Bewilderbeast.
they’re both rare alpha species dragons. which i think is really interesting.
they’re referred to as the queen and king respectively.
what i think is the most interesting is that there are 2 of them (alpha type dragons), but one is distinctly more powerful than the other.
with the red death, it would seem only dragons of her nest are loyal to her. she has an influence over them yes, but she cannot fully control them. let alone have control over any dragon she’d like.
whereas the bewilderbeast can fully control any dragon he feels like. Like full-on mind control do what I want, not just “hey get me some food or i’ll eat you”.
another cool way that dreamworks connected them is the sound they make. and i’m not talking about roars.
i’m talking about this background ambient noise. it’s so faint you can barely hear it, but if you listen closely you’ll hear that it’s the same sound.
listen carefully to these clips.
this sound is what controls the dragons, and it’s the exact reason Hiccup covers Toothless’s ears in httyd 2.
In HTTYD2 and THW respectively there’s dragons that are doing things because others are forcing them to. In THW it’s the Deathgrippers and in HTTYD2 it’s the Bewilderbeast.
Both groups are being forced to do these things to our protagonists, Hiccup and Toothless. Yet instead of punishing the humans responsible for this, they punish the dragons.
But let’s take a step back, get some context.
In HTTYD2 we meet two Bewilderbeast; Valka’s and Drago’s. One is kind and free to do whatever he wants, the other has chains, scars and is being abused by Drago.
In HTTYD3 we get another new species; Deathgrippers. They have a venom that kinda does what it wants when the plot demands it but one thing has always been consistent is the fact that Grimmel controls the Deathgrippers with this venom. He even says “They’re dragon killers. Drugged into obedience with their own venom. Not even your precious Alpha could control them.”
So now that we’ve established that, let’s return to the big picture; humans controlling dragons to do bad things, yet humans get no blame for this.
In HTTYD2 and 3, when it’s time to take out the big bad it’s always the abused/mind controlled dragons taking the fall and gravity taking out the villain who orchestrated this mess.
Toothless and the other dragons literally maim the Bewilderbeast (and he wasn’t even fighting back) until he leaves.
Toothless and Hiccup kill the Deathgrippers, two due to inaction (letting them drown while being connected to Grimmel’s quad copter) and four more when Toothless electrocuted them.
You could say they didn’t have the time, but Hiccup and Toothless aren’t our only characters. Let Valka and Eret do it, since they got so little focus in this movie.
Even with the Bewilderbeast, Hiccup or Toothless could’ve snapped Drago’s stick and killed him. Instead of maiming the Bewilderbeast.
Ghostship is the mate of Seashine and mother to Crosswaves. She earned the name ‘Ghostship’ due to her love of swimming during foggy periods leaving her to be mistaken as a sailing ship that vanishes underwater. The Water Wing Tribe, however, knows that it’s simply their Alpha Queen enjoying some peace and quiet.
