The first official image for Dreamworks Animation’s upcoming film: “How to Train Your Dragon” is now online.

If your having trouble reading the text in the image it says: “‘How to Train Your Dragon’ is an adventure comedy set in the mythical world of burly Vikings and wild dragons, based on the book by Cressida Cowell. The story centers around a scrawny teenager, who lives on the island of Berk, where fighting dragons is a way of life. Initiation is coming and this is his one chance to prove his worthiness to his tribe and father. But when he encounters and ultimately befriends an injured dragon, his world is turned upside down.”
With this first image we also got the official synopsis.
“Meet Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, heir of the Viking chiefdom, but a boy with one very big problem: a hero he is not. “How to Train Your Dragon’ is the riotous story of Hiccup’s quest to hunt down the fiercest dragon, bring it into submission, and—hopefully—pass his initiation. Instead, he ends up with the smallest, most ornery dragon—it’s even toothless! Thus begins the hijinx of the world’s most lovable, unlikely hero and a most reluctant “beast.”

I never heard of this movie but it looks cool. Dreamworks and Pixar seem to rarely disappoint in this department. Movie looks interesting from the poster
