Merry Christmas, dad!
I've had this idea bobbing around in my head for quite a while. For ages I've wanted to do something with this song, because I really feel like it fits my dad and I. The problem was finding the right time to make it for him, and finding a pair of characters to represent us. At first I thought I'd make it a father's day gift using drawings of Skitties and a Delcatty to represent myself and my dad, but that never came to pass. I did consider making it a birthday present under the same idea above, but that didn't work out either. Then... How to Train Your Dragon came to mind, and the relationship between Hiccup and Stoick came to mind.
Their relationship isn't a perfect one. Hiccup starts out being looked at very poorly in his father's eyes, and he just wants to be one of the Vikings. But despite all of what happens in the movie they learn to get along. I kind of feel like that represents my dad and I. We don't always get along, and there really are times when you drive me crazy, dad, but when it comes down to it... I really do love spending time with you. I wouldn't change any of what we've done together for anything in the world.
So... I hope you enjoyed this, dad. Because I really enjoyed making it for you. :3
As far as the song goes, I think it speaks for itself. I always viewed Max and Goofy's relationship being similar to ours as well. Goofy's a big goofball, and Max is a teen growing up and wanting to get away from his dad. But looking past their rocky relationship, they really are the best father and son duo I've seen from Disney in a long time. Even if I still do think Pongo is one of the best Disney dads ever... right up there with Rapunzel's dad, even though he had no lines.
This was purely fanmade and is in no way associated with Dreamworks or Disney. I own none of what is in this video.
I won't embarrass you like Goof would do to Max, (I hope!), but I loved this so much! Your production values joining the lyrics and song to the images has become so proficient, I marvel at your abilities. I never knew I didn't get along well with you at times, so this is a pleasant way to be made aware of that. You are my fully grown daughter, and I accept you just as you wish to be. Funny thing, I still see myself as Hiccup, having my own troubles with my own dad. Pals forever, Simba?

@flash105 CX Well, it feels like we don't always get along as well as we should sometimes. Most of the time we're pretty in sync, though. And I'm glad you like it. I really had fun making it. :3
And yes. Pals forever, dad. ^_^
