...hero of the film is the unfortunately named Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel), who is the son of the stoic village chieftain, but inheritor of none of his physical prowess or impressive musculature. A thoughtful, contemplative sort, Hiccup does not quite fit in at dragon-slaying boot camp, where the motto is “Why read words when you can just kill the stuff the words tell you about?” This attitude is problematic for Hiccup, who has secretly befriended a dragon he has christened Toothless—a creature whose creepy cuteness is strikingly similar...

...like “I heard my own name too late… I never got accustomed to it,” by-and-large settle into their roles. Ilker Oztop GSAS ’12 , in particular, stands out playing both Leah’s husband and her son. The hip-gyrating, dance routine that introduces the son exemplifies his performance, elevating the script’s ludicrous dialogue to even more absurd heights with a frenzied, hyperkinetic energy.

In an earlier century, I would have had no choice but to trick my wife Cassandra into a best-of-three contest using a method that depends on my genetically inherited lack of rhythm.

And for those of you worried about our putting him through this, know that...

Compton, who quit his job as a real estate agent in the lumber community of Shingletown to run armed-militia training camps, says all these preparations are for the sake of his children.

...family members who made it into the courtroom gave the impression that Hutaree was more ragtag than a fearsome killing machine. Brittany Byrant, 18, the fiancé of Stone's son David Jr., said the FBI was gruff during the raid, pointing guns to her head and ordering her to put her six-month-old child on the floor. "He wasn't racist," Bryant said of her fiancé, as she sat in the last row of the courtroom. "I have friends who are Arabic and colored, and David didn't care." Next to her was Donna Stone, the elder...
