How to Train Your Dragon (also released by the name How to Train Your Dragon 3D) is a 2010 computer-animated fantasy film by DreamWorks Animation loosely based on the 2003 book of the same title. The film stars the voice talents of Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, Craig Ferguson, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill, T.J. Miller, Kristen Wiig, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.

The story takes place in a mythical Viking world where a young Viking teenager named "Hiccup" aspires to follow his tribe's tradition of becoming a dragon slayer. After finally capturing his first dragon, and with his chance at finally gaining the tribe's acceptance, he finds that he no longer has the desire to kill it and instead befriends it. The film was released March 26, 2010, to universally positive reviews. The film overcame a disappointing opening weekend at the box office to become DreamWorks Animation's most successful film in the United States and Canada outside of the Shrek film series and Kung Fu Panda.

On the island of Berk, which is beset by dragons that raid their stock of sheep, the Viking chief Stoick the Vast's son Hiccup works as an apprentice to the blacksmith. Hiccup explains to the viewer he is a small Viking, and doesn't have the strength or skill that his fellow Vikings have and is somewhat overlooked and not taken very seriously amongst his tribe. He also explains that his tribe celebrates strong dragon slayers, and he desperately seeks to become one. His father does not wish for his son to be hurt, especially because he doesn't have the strength to survive, and generally avoids having him included in the more violent aspects of the tribe.

During a raid, Hiccup shoots down a rare and greatly feared dragon called a Night Fury with a bolas cannon that he made, but no one believes him. Attempting to get proof, Hiccup goes to the woods and finds the downed dragon. He threatens to kill the dragon (saying he will cut out the dragon's heart and take it to his father), but cannot bring himself to do such a task. Instead, he frees it, and it aggressively sizes him up before flying off to a canyon.

Night Fury has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
