SOUNDBITE: Riley Miner, actor, saying (English):

"There's so much going on all at once. There is this amazing spectacle. And then on top of that you have this brilliant story that was written by DreamWorks about the whole movie and this beautiful bond between this dragon - this boy and his dragon and his problems with his dad. And it's just all this, all this drama and spectacle all mixed together, it's incredible."
