.... to make this book into a movie.

Why? Well I'm glad you asked.

* The Dragon Hype. With all the crazy dragon-obsessed hype with HTTYD2 and The Hobbit, now is the time for Disney to make a good movie with marketable dragons as characters... No I said a good movie, for all of those who are thinking of Pete's Dragon. (No I don't like that movie. Have you ever watched that with a nine-year-old?)

* The Kicktail Princess. First we had Merida, who had super-human aim that made Katniss Everdeen look like a kid with a nerf gun. Then we get Elsa, the Snow Queen, who makes Jack Frost look like a two-year-old with glitter spray. Now we need a dragon rider. Now we need someone to come and (and I say this with as much love for HTTYD as possible) kick Hiccup's wimpy butt. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PRINCESS CIMORENE TO COME TO CINEMA!! ARISE, MY BEAUTIES! IT'S TIME TO MAKE HTTYD LOOK LIKE A LEGO GAME!! ok no it wouldn't happen like that. But can Hiccup make cherries jubilee– and get his dragon to eat it? I think not. Plus, Cimorene is a nerd– she reads Latin, likes to organize the dragon Kazul's hoard, and learn magical stuff. She's also a smartaleck. She has got to be my favorite princess [Oh shut up Elsa, you're a queen now, you don't count.]


 * Plus I personally like the idea of Dealing with Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons. Cimorene would fit right in! [That title pretty much sums up my internet life. Now if we can only get Artemis Fowl and Wings of Fire in there somewhere....]

This would be the perfect time to draw in a large demographic of Disney fans and dragon-lovers. Plus, modern CGI would make these dragons look wicked. And Cimorene's hair would be awesome, and the music... gah fangirlingfangirlingfangirlingfangirl– ok I'm good.

Opinions?
