Well, How to Train your Dragon 2 is about a war between the dragon thief and the dragon riders. This is the plot (I copied from Wikipedia) :
Five years after the Viking village of Berk has made peace with the dragons, dragons now live amongst the villagers as working animals and companions, and even take part in racing sports. Hiccup goes on adventures with his dragon, Toothless, as they discover and map unexplored lands and territories.
Having come of age, he is being pressed by his father, Stoick the Vast,
to succeed him as chieftain, although Hiccup remains unsure if he is
ready for this responsibility.
While investigating a wildfire, Hiccup and Astrid discover the remains of a fort
encased in a colossal ice formation and encounter a dragon trapper
named Eret, who blames them for the destruction of his fort and attempts
to capture their dragons for an insane conqueror called Drago Bludvist.
The two riders return to Berk to warn Stoick about the dragon army that
Drago is amassing, and Stoick orders the villagers to fortify the
island and prepare for battle. Against Stoick's orders, Hiccup flies off
with Astrid and they surrender themselves and their dragons to Eret so
as to be taken to Drago in order to reason with him. However, Stoick,
Gobber, and Berk's other dragon riders pursue and find them.
Stoick explains that he once met Drago and found him to be an
unreasonable madman, but Hiccup refuses to believe that war is
inevitable and flies off with Toothless. They are captured by a dragon
rider named Valka, who is revealed to be Hiccup's long lost mother. She
explains that she spent twenty years rescuing dragons from Drago's traps and bringing them to an island haven created out of ice by a colossal Alpha
dragon called a Bewilderbeast, to whom all dragons answer. Stoick
tracks Hiccup to the island where he discovers that his wife is still
alive. Simultaneously, Astrid and the other riders kidnap Eret to find
Drago, but they are also captured and Drago learns of Berk's dragons.
Drago and his army lay siege to Valka's sanctuary, where he reveals
that he has his own Bewilderbeast to challenge the Alpha. A titanic
battle ensues between the two Bewilderbeasts in a fight for control over
all dragons on the island. Drago's Bewilderbeast emerges victorious and
seizes control of all the dragons, including Toothless. Hiccup tries to
persuade Drago to end the violence, but Drago orders him killed as
well. Toothless, under the influence of the new Alpha, approaches Hiccup
and fires a plasma blast. At the last instant, Stoick pushes Hiccup out
of the way, and is hit instead, killing him instantly. Drago leaves
Hiccup to his fate and, riding Toothless, leads his now larger army to
destroy Berk. Stoick is given a ship burial
and Hiccup, now filled with regret at the loss of his father, decides
that he will fly back to Berk to defend his people and live up to his
father's legacy.
The dragon riders ride baby dragons, which are immune to the
Bewilderbeast's control, and arrive at Berk after the Alpha had already
attacked the village and taken control of the dragons there. Hiccup
confronts Drago and a brainwashed Toothless while the other riders work
to distract the Bewilderbeast. Drago again orders Toothless to kill
Hiccup, but Hiccup succeeds in disenchanting Toothless. Drago then
orders the Alpha to shoot the pair, and the Bewilderbeast successfully
encases them in a large blast of ice, seemingly killing them. His
victory is short-lived, as Toothless, now glowing with plasma, blasts
away the ice, revealing that both he and Hiccup are unharmed. Toothless
challenges the Alpha and repeatedly fires plasma blasts at the
Bewilderbeast. This frees the other dragons from the Bewilderbeast's
control and all fire at it, severely injuring the colossal dragon until
Toothless fires a final massive blast, breaking its left tusk.
Defeated, Drago and his Bewilderbeast retreat into the ocean as the
villagers celebrate their victory. All the dragons acknowledge Toothless
as the new Alpha dragon, and Hiccup is made chief of Berk by the
village elder. The film ends with Berk being rebuilt with a statue of
Stoick erected in his honor, and Hiccup doing his duties as chief,
proudly declaring that while others may have armies and armadas, Berk
has its own dragons.
After watch How to Train your Dragon 2, I have a lunch with 3 of my friends. Yeah, it's only 3. Because, the others back to school to take their school report after the final examination. I don't know who took mine.

After I have a lunch, I back to the cinema on 12.45 to watch Maleficent. My dad (also with my mom), who already there to buy the tickets, gave me a large-size popcorn. Thanks, dad.
Maleficent is the other version of The Sleeping Beauty tale. I like Maleficent more than The Sleeping Beauty. Here's the plot I copied from Wikipedia :
An elderly narrator tells the story of Maleficent, a very strong and
powerful faerie living in the Moors, a magical realm bordering a human
kingdom. As a young girl, she falls in love with a human peasant boy
named Stefan, but his mutual affection for Maleficent is overshadowed by
his ambition to become king. As they grow older, Stefan stops seeing
Maleficent. After Maleficent defeats the current king in battle when he
attempts to invade the Moors, he offers to name whoever kills her as his
successor. Stefan overhears this, goes to see Maleficent and deceives
her into thinking that he has come to warn her of the king's plot. He
then drugs her and attempts to kill her but cannot bring himself to do
so. Instead, he burns her wings off with iron, a lethal substance to
fairies, and presents them to the king as proof of her death. Maleficent
rescues a raven named Diaval to serve as her informant and he reports
to her that Stefan has been crowned king. The realization that Stefan
betrayed her to gain the throne devastates Maleficent and in
retaliation, she declares herself queen of the Moors, forming a dark
oppressive kingdom with Diaval as her one companion and confidant.Some time later, Diaval informs Maleficent that King Stefan is hosting a christening for his newborn daughter, Aurora. Bent on revenge, Maleficent arrives uninvited and curses the newborn princess: on her sixteenth birthday, she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel, which will cause her to fall into a death-like sleep. After Stefan is forced by Maleficent to beg for his daughter, she offers a caveat: the curse can be broken by true love's kiss. Terrified of Maleficent's vengeance, Stefan sends Aurora to live with three pixies until the day after her sixteenth birthday. He sends out his armies to find and kill Maleficent, but she surrounds her kingdom with an impenetrable shield of thorns.
Despite her initial dislike for Princess Aurora, Maleficent begins to care about the girl when the neglectful pixies fail to do so. After a brief meeting with the young Aurora, Maleficent watches over her from afar. When Aurora is 15, she sees Maleficent for the first time since then and calls her "faerie godmother", as she recalled being watched over by her all her life. Realizing she has grown fond of the princess, Maleficent attempts to revoke the curse, but cannot as she herself had declared nothing could stop it. Aurora later falls in love with Prince Philip. On the day before Aurora's 16th birthday, Maleficent, hoping the avoid the curse, allows the girl to live in the Moors, far away from any spindles. The pixies, however, inadvertently tell Aurora of her parentage and of Maleficent's true identity, and a furious Aurora runs away to her father.
After a quick dismissive reunion on his part, Stefan locks Aurora away for safekeeping. She begins to fall under the curse's eternal sleeping trance. She is drawn to the dungeon, where the curse assembles a spinning wheel. Aurora pricks her finger and falls asleep. Intent on saving her, Maleficent abducts Phillip and infiltrates Stefan's castle to have him kiss Aurora and break the curse. However, Phillip's romantic kiss has no effect. Maleficent apologizes to the princess and swears no harm will come to her, kissing Aurora's forehead. This causes Aurora to awaken. Maleficent's curse has been broken as her motherly concern for Aurora constitutes "true love". Aurora forgives her and they attempt to flee the castle, but Maleficent is trapped in an iron net and attacked by Stefan and his guards. Maleficent transforms Diaval into a dragon and he lifts the net off her, but is driven back by the soldiers. Stefan beats Maleficent and taunts her, but before he can kill her, her wings, freed from his chamber by Aurora, fly back to her and reattach themselves. Stefan attempts once more to kill her, but plummets to his death. Aurora is crowned queen of the human and faerie realms by Maleficent, unifying the two kingdoms with Phillip at her side. The narrator then reveals her identity as "the one they called the Sleeping Beauty".
After the movie ends, I buy a cup of hot chocolate then go back home. Actually, I want to watch Legends of Oz : Dorothy's Return too, but my mom says it's too much. If I have more time, I'll watch Legends of Oz.
Goodbye!
