This week, The Filmlosophers are flying high as they passionately discuss DreamWorks' latest live-action adaptation, How to Train Your Dragon (2025)! The crew is practically waxing poetic, applauding the studio's incredible efforts to not only successfully adapt a beloved animated property but also deliver something genuinely unique – an experience that, unlike a certain "House of Mouse," feels fresh and distinct from its animated predecessor.
From the breathtaking visuals to the heartfelt storytelling, they'll dissect what makes this adaptation soar and why it's setting a new standard for live-action remakes.
And speaking of confusion (perhaps from all the excitement!), Host Eddie, in the spirit of recent scheduling mayhem, decides to put the other hosts to the ultimate test. Get ready for a fun and perplexing game of "Guess the Movie from the Poorly Explained Plot!"
Join us as we celebrate a truly successful live-action adaptation and a hilarious challenge of cinematic deduction!
So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and tune in to this week's high-flying dragon ride of an episode of The Filmlosophers!
