Battle with the red death, full scene comparison (1/3)

(2/3)

(3/3)

It’s actually crazy how much more impact the original film has over the remake It’s all those little details that get lost in live action that just suck so much quality out of the scene

The only true credit I can give the la “over” the original is the flight scenes on the dragons in this scene specifically are great, and even more specifically the animation with Stormfly

The 1 thing I miss most is “BEARD OF THOR, WHAT IS THAT????” But the sheer scale & terror of the la scene, not just from the red death but from the chaos around it like ppl straight up getting flattened by a rock, I fell in love with

The part where a bunch of Vikings get smashed by a rock and then the part where the red death stomps on a few / crushes a few with its tail really got me because that’s legitimately terrifying. The music that plays there too gives that dire vibe aswell

"Hiccup Confronts Drago" at the start was such a cool addition, it makes the Red Death feel a lot more dangerous in my eyes. Not entirely sure why, maybe its because of the songs use/implication in the second movie, might've added a bit of that feeling to this scene

It just feels like a more dangerous track, like *something* bad is rising from the depths of the dragon’s nest. It definitely gives of the feeling of a large threat for sure

Only two shots to get that the animation is 10000x better.⬇️ And I can't belive they deleted THE moment : "Odin help us !". THAT moment where for the first time Stoick's affraid facing a Dragon, IS DELETE ! Same for the "what is that ?" The perfect description of Red Death 💩💩

What if I said I prefer the LA version for this…

I mean some people agree, I personally don’t. It has some small things I really like, but I otherwise prefer the presentation and look of the original more
