Continuity mistake: After Hiccup cuts the ropes that bind Toothless and the dragon flies away, Hiccup gets to his feet in front of the boulder, but the ropes are gone.

Question: Is Gobber's line about trolls being real ("They steal your socks! But only the left ones.") a reference to Lilo and Stitch? When describing Stitch, Jumba says "He will be irresistibly drawn to large cities, where he will back up sewers, reverse street signs, and steal everyone's left shoe."?
Answer: No, it's actually because Gobber only has one foot. That's why he only has left socks to steal.
