Where to start with Pete's Dragon

Either one. They share a title, a boy and a dragon, and almost nothing else, so there is no order and no reason to watch both unless you want to.

  1. 1
    Pete's Dragon (1977) Pete's Dragon

    The musical, with the cartoon dragon. Watch it for the mix of live action and animation, which Disney had been doing since the 1940s and did more of here than almost anywhere else.

  2. 2
    Pete's Dragon (2016) Pete's Dragon

    A quiet, slow, well-made film about a boy living in a forest. If the 1977 one put you off, this will not feel like the same thing at all, and that is deliberate.

Then what? Nothing else. There is no third film and none has been announced.

A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.

Everything you tick is saved in this browser and nowhere else. An account is the only way to put your list on another device, and the only way to get it back if this browser clears its storage. It is free and it takes an email address and a password.

Sign in on your phone, your laptop, anything, and the same list is there, kept in step as you tick. Nothing to copy, nothing to remember.

All three are about this franchise and all three are for showing, not moving. The link and the picture open SagaList with that progress displayed next to whatever the person opening it has already ticked. The code is what a friend pastes into Compare below. None of them writes anything into anybody's list.

Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.

Removes everything ticked here, in this browser. If you are signed in it clears on your other devices too. If you are not, there is no other copy and this cannot be undone.
