I just know someone wants to post this so I'll get it out of the way;

Because of Me.

because Holla Forumscks watch literally every shit possible

I remember being greatly moved by The Land Before Time. A lot of that movie sticks with me clearly in my mind. And I haven't seen it in like 20 years.

The tree star, the death of Littlefoot's mom, Sarah calling to her parents across the chasm, meeting Ducky.

I remember I had this toy of a sitting Littlefood. It was rubber and hollow on the bottom. I think it was supposed to be some kind of puppet, maybe from Burger King?

I remember putting a chicken egg under it, thinking it would hatch into a dinosaur. (I think I saw in a Looney Tune that the animal that sits on the egg is what the egg hatches into). It seems the 80s was prime time for boys to be into dinosaurs.

I always hated the sequels. Stupid, retarded musicals, that missed the feeling of the original.

The theme song from the original, however, never ceases to move me. Let's all nostalgia out to some Diana Ross (!) singing If We Hold On Together.

I have to ask now, WTF is the deal with all those LBT sequels? I mean, the original has been released 28 years ago, people who were children back then are in their 30s now. With early sequels you could at least make the argument that they were trying to cash-grab by making children want to see the sequel to a movie they liked, but at this point children don't know what LBT is anymore. Even the last of the LBT sequels was nine years ago. What's even the point of making it a LBT movie?

JUST

UNFUCK

MY

SHIT

UP

FAM

Yeah, the first one was some quality shit.


I think there you were seeing the beginnings of studios being fucking terrified about releasing any sort of project based on new IP. It was safer to constantly rehash a name that everyone was already familiar with, and the just haven't stopped

Money. Despite no one under 20 remembering the LBT movies, despite there not being an LBT movie in years, despite all the sequels being awful, they think they can still make money off it, so they'll keep making them until they stop being profitable.

Holy shit! I don't think I've ever seen such a high number of sequels. Perhaps it exists for some horror franchise, but this is an adventure film. Seeing the get into a situation above their heads and survive with some luck and smarts once I can do. The third time it starts to get a bit annoying. At fourteenth time my suspense of disbelief has long since run out.

Why did they go back?

I first watched that at the tender age of 6. I remember being so traumatized by the mother's death.

I don't think even horror movies get that many sequels. LBT has reached porno-tier in number of sequels now.

That's pretty good animation for a straight to video animation

I've only seen the first one.
Are the other 13 movies basically the same movie?

More or less, but with cheaper animation and the dinosaurs breaking out into song occasionally.

Because little kids love 2D animation, songs, and dinosaurs. Do you know of another IP that has all three?

Is there a series? I know there are some shitty games.

I think there was a cartoon, although I never saw it.

Just one more and they'll be worthy of crossing over with Final Fantasy in the next Kingdom Hearts game.

well, there's You Look Delicious (Omae Umasou,You Are Umasou, or Heart and Yummie (eng dub name apparently)) but it's anime

and fucking brutal at times

I fucking loved Kung Fu Anime Hero Dinosaur.

2 out of 3 isn't bad

Really? I hated musical numbers in movies most of the time as a kid. Was I just different?

probably.

The songs put in the sequels were fucking terrible and forced. You only tolerate that shit up to a certain age, a very early age.

Better than this?

inb4 someone inevitably posts something about Judith Barsi and depresses the fuck out of everyone.

You're already too late aspie fuck get some reading comprehension

I'm the same way. Even as a kid, musical numbers would just completely break me out of my enjoyment during a movie.

We can't tell you because we didn't watch that movie.

I hated musical numbers as well, they interrupt the story and for several minutes nothing actually happens. Or if something happens it happens in a way that could never happen for real. Either way, it feels like having been on a trip and when you sober up you are somehow in a different place, and you vaguely know that something happened but you don't know what exactly.

Oh snap!
