The only dragons that look good in these movies are Toothless, the alphas, and the red death from the first one. The rest of the dragons are too silly and kiddie looking. They should have some awesome designs instead of something that looks like it came from 'the Croods'. The only silly dragons should be the babies and the ones that belong to the idiot kids (who shouldn't really exist either). There should be dragons from every culture's depiction of them: wyverns, 4-legged dragons, Chinese serpents with no wings. Lose the bright colors and ridiculous shapes!
Yes, finally someone that see's this as well! I'm sure there's more out there but less vocal.
Game of Thrones has a very defined and dark style that contributes to their dragon designs, so to that guy that's taking a knock on them, you don't know what a dragon should look like or when styles clash.
I blame the silly designs on DreamWorks themselves. They are heavy handed with micro-managing all their properties allowing for very little creativity. Dragon could've been better(design and story) if they had not interfered with it's original direction, we did NOT and do NOT need Madagascar spin-offs and there was no market for Peabody.
Artist have no say in DreamWorks, just clueless, heartless and tasteless execs.
