In case you don’t remember (or grew out of watching The Land Before Time before I did) Littlefoot was revealed to have a surviving father named Bron (voiced surprisingly well by Keifer Sutherland) in the tenth installment (yes, tenth!) of the franchise. Although this time, the motivation seems to have something to do Littlefoot’s dad, who seems to be in trouble. So, judging by the trailer, it would seem that this movie is probably going to take a similar path. Always.Įxcept in the Seventh one, but that one had aliens or something so it kind of gets a pass.

Sure, different plot points and characters may mix things up a bit, but there will always be a moment where they go into the Mysterious Beyond and get chased by theropods. Well, the basic formula for a Land Before Time sequel is for the main gang to come up with some reason to lead them out of the Great Valley into the Mysterious Beyond to have an adventure and probably get chased by Sharpteeth. OK, so after fourteen movies spanning a period of nearly three decades, what could this movie possibly be about. In actuality, this is kind of old news, as the trailer came out a little more than a month ago, but I’ve only recently seen it and I’m willing to bet this is your first time hearing about it too.

I didn’t think in a million years we would get another one of these films, and only a trailer would make me think otherwise. So whenever I heard rumors or saw videos that reported that a new sequel was being made, I just chalked it up to some people getting faulty information from some Wikipedia or IMDB article. I thought the reason they stopped making Land Before Time movies was because Universal shut down their animation studios. Heck, for the longest time I didn’t even believe it. Yep, we’re getting another Land Before Time movie.

I don’t even know how to properly start this thing.
