Why 'How to Train Your Dragon' Works as a Live-Action Remake

Live-action remakes have been a cesspit of Hollywood’s worst creative impulses for years. Ever since studios discovered the lucrative market of hollowing out their vaults of animated classics to cash in with skeletal remakes of the same, audiences have suffered under half-alive zombie creations of some of their favorite films. While this year’s new releases have proven that live-action remakes aren’t going anywhere, the latest remake of How to Train Your Dragon offers hope that this might not always be a bad thing.
