Woodburn: Dadvice for Father's Day
Father's Day cards will be opened two days hence, so it seems apropos to share a Hallmark-worthy thought from Mark Twain who famously observed: 'When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.' More recently, classical pianist Charles Wadworth, who died two weeks ago at age 96, once expanded on Twain's quip: 'By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong.' Or daughter. Barry Kibrick, an Emmy-winning TV host on PBS, once insightfully told me of raising his two sons: 'I never worried about over-praising them and building up their self-esteem too much because there are plenty of people in the world who will try to tear them down.' Author Jan Hutchins had a similarly wise dad, sharing: 'When I was a kid, my father told me every day, 'You're the most wonderful boy in the world, and you can do anything you want to.' ' Clarence Budington Kelland, a 20th-century novelist who once described himself as 'the best second-rate writer in America,' made a first-rate compliment about his own father: 'He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.' Best-selling essayist Robert Fulghum put it this way: 'Don't worry that your children never listen to you; worry that they are always watching you.' American inventor Charles Kettering likewise advised, 'Every father should remember: one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.' With attribution unknown comes this pearl: 'One night a father overheard his son pray: 'Dear God, Make me the kind of man my Daddy is.' Later that night, the father prayed, 'Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be.' ' The rock band Yellowcard offers this lovely lyric about the power of a dad as a role model: 'Father I will always be / that same boy who stood by the sea / and watched you tower over me / now I'm older I wanna be the same as you.' Hall of Fame baseball player Harmon Killebrew apparently had a Hall-of-Fame Dad, the son recalling: 'My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say, 'You're tearing up the grass.' Dad would reply, 'We're not raising grass — we're raising boys.' ' A great attitude for Girl Dads as well, naturally. Speaking of little girls, John Mayer strikes the perfect chord with these lyrics: 'Fathers, be good to your daughters. You are the god and the weight of her world.' Getting further to the heart of the matter, John Wooden, who believed 'love' is the most important word in the English language, opined: 'The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.' From another basketball coach, the late Jim Valvano: 'My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person — he believed in me.' Wayne Bryan, father of doubles legends Mike and Bob who are even better people than they are tennis players, advises parents: 'Shout your praise to the rooftops and if you must criticize, drop it like a dandelion. On second thought, don't criticize at all.' In closing, this home-run thought from Hall of Fame singles hitter Wade Boggs: 'Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad.'

Biggest changes in the 'How to Train Your Dragon' live-action movie
Biggest changes in the 'How to Train Your Dragon' live-action movie Show Caption Hide Caption 'How to Train Your Dragon' takes flight in live action: Watch Mason Thames stars as the Viking boy Hiccup, who instead of slaying dragons befriends one in the live-action remake of "How to Train Your Dragon." Gerard Butler wouldn't have been gutted to see someone else take his role in the live-action 'How to Train Your Dragon,' but there would have been some side eye. Though 'it would've made me sad,' the Scottish actor thinks it might have been interesting to see another person's interpretation of Butler's Viking chief Stoick the Vast from the 2010 animated 'Dragon.' He brings up a scene where Stoick's son Hiccup takes a knife at a tribal ceremony and Stoick goes, 'I would've chosen a hammer.' Watching a 'How to Train Your Dragon' movie he wasn't in, 'I would've been like that: 'I would've said that a little flatter,' ' Butler says, laughing. 'But I'm glad that it didn't come to that, because if I do say so myself, there is only one Stoick and it must be me.' Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox With his new 'Dragon' (in theaters now), returning writer/director Dean DeBlois revamped the story of awkward Viking kid Hiccup (Mason Thames) and his best dragon pal Toothless to 'keep the best of what worked and find opportunities to go deeper with the mythology (and) character development.' Adds Thames: 'The original wasn't broken, so you can't fix it. All we could do was elevate it.' Here are the key differences between the cartoon and the live-action 'Dragon': 'How to Train Your Dragon' feels 'really raw' in live action Going from animation to live action, DeBlois leaned into 'visceral photorealism,' from the Vikings and their village to the dragons that Hiccup helps his people understand rather than slay. 'It feels like you're there, like this place and these creatures could actually exist,' the director says. That groundedness carried over to the human characters. 'There's a lot of weight to it, with real people and a real-ish world with dragons,' Thames says, adding that scenes like the shouting matches between the empathetic Hiccup and his dragon-hating dad were 'really raw.' The experiential dragon riding is more immersive and realistic Watching the original Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel) learn to saddle up and soar with Toothless entertained a generation of kid film fans. DeBlois learned when testing that movie how important the flying scenes were to the audience. For the redo, the director wanted to expand the experiential quality of the sequences and 'just dial it up a little bit more (and) find those moments where the camera work has a little more life." The latest 'Dragon' has more appeal for teens and tweens Making the first film, DeBlois says he always had DreamWorks head Jeffrey Katzenberg over his shoulder saying, 'Don't forget the 4-year-olds!' This time around, the studio encouraged him to add extra stakes, action and intensity to make his teen heroes more relatable: 'If we're going to do live action, let's make it feel dangerous, textured and emotionally complicated,' DeBlois says. 'Younger kids aspire upward,' he adds. 'They want to see what their older siblings are watching. The reverse is not usually true. And there was just an opportunity with this movie to enrich the relationships so that they had a little more sophistication and texture and maturity. The story can withstand that all-ages approach.' Warrior girl Astrid finally gets a substantial role DeBlois always thought he could do more with Astrid (Nico Parker), Hiccup's crush who's at first annoyed by her dragon-training rival but then grows to like him. The remake was an opportunity to 'learn more about her and where she came from and why Hiccup is this obstacle in her way and how she resents his privilege,' he says. Casting the new Astrid (originally voiced by America Ferrera) proved difficult. Quite a few actresses looked like the animated character but none of them landed the dialogue, 'which was designed to be really harsh to Hiccup – a takedown of who he was as a character,' DeBlois says. Parker was the only one who consistently was more like a sports team captain rather than mean-spirited: 'It was like provoking you to be better, but it didn't have a cruelty to it.' But adorable Toothless stays (mostly) true to the original movie Animal references, from parrots and walruses to snakes and crocodiles, were used to design the various species of computer-generated dragons for the remake. However, DeBlois was very mindful that, because Toothless is the franchise's most beloved and recognizable dragon, they couldn't deviate too much from the original: 'That would draw ire from fans and just be disappointing.' When they tried to work in real-world animal vibes, 'it looked less and less like Toothless,' DeBlois says. So instead, designers tweaked certain details, like twitching nerves under his skin and the iridescence in his scales. They also studied panthers and lions to utilize their movements as well. 'Toothless needs to feel like your dog or your cat,' DeBlois says. 'So we tried to keep the design approachable and both ferocious but cuddly with lots of pet cues baked in there.'
