Author Topic: Fox is adding first 5 minutes of How to Train Your Dragon 2 to Rio 2 for 4/18 Justin Hamaker Film God Posts: 2253 From: Lakeport, CA USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 04-15-2014 02:55 PM                        I received emails from my Fox exhibitor relations people on Monday with graphics to promote the first 5 minutes of How to Train Your Dragon 2 being added to Rio 2 for the weekend of April 18. From my film booker we were told this will be in addition to the Almost Home short already attached to Rio 2. The HTTYD clip should be on this week's Deluxe Trailer drive.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-15-2014 09:59 PM                        Looks like it's not encrypted either, is it? At least the paperwork doesn't say it is. The trailer drive has both flat and scope versions. EDIT: Nope not encrypted.  |  IP: Logged Buck Wilson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 894 From: St. Joseph MO, USA Registered: Sep 2010 posted 04-16-2014 09:51 AM                     EEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I don't even know if I should watch it!! SHOULD I WATCH IT?!?!

I wouldn't watch any of the 5 minute spot if you are a huge fan.  |  IP: Logged Jarod Reddig Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 513 From: Hays, Ks Registered: Jun 2011 posted 04-28-2014 05:01 PM                     Im also a HUGE fan of HTTYD and on Yahoo movies you can also view the first 5 minutes. I couldn't contain myself and watched it and now Im super excited to see it!  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-28-2014 05:07 PM                        The Technicolor drives have it "unencrypted". The Deluxe drives have it "encrypted." That makes a lot of sense. Since it's literally the first five minutes of the movie there's not really any worry about spoilers, unlike with a regular trailer, so it's nice from that standpoint. It's your typical flying-type footage with lots of falling type 3-D effects.  |  IP: Logged
