Had to pause cause it almost seemed added in afterwards lol. It reminded me of the Boondocks episodes where Thugnificent says his crew is willing to die for their chains except 1 dude in the background is like "Uhh no" without hesitation.
It would be kinda cute if Chomper taught his friends how to speak T-Rex. When I was younger, my friends would teach me basic greetings and conversation in the language their parents spoke, and as a result I know basic Bengali, Spanish, French, and Japanese.
@@CharlieQuebec-fb6ho I don't think OP is saying it's cute for real people to be bilingual, but is instead saying that it's cute for a fictional dinosaur child to be like real people in a weirdly specific way.

"This video will contain spoilers for the Land Before Time franchise" I literally paused for a moment to decide if I could live with the 14 LBT sequels being spoiled for me.
Dew Drinker6 Watched them as a kid as well but I still think I only got to number 8 which was the newest at the time. Got the VHS, started watching it, paused because I was losing interest and then I think I just never came back to it lol.
I particularly love the line "I remember seeing trailers for a sequel where the main kids befriend a baby T-Rex and being intrigued by this." As if child Jenny was sitting watching TV and thought to herself "Hm yes, thats an interesting departure, I'm looking forward to seeing where they take this, could make for some interesting character drama."
"The Yellowbellies are named Loofa, Doofa, and Foobi. I hate them terribly, these awful idiot dinosaurs" is such a powerful line so full of scorn I feel like it could be from some long lost Edgar Allen Poe short story
Further proof of Chomper being the best character is in the cartoon. The cartoon has a reoccurring villain in Red Claw and his two goons Thud and Screech. In one episode, Chomper and Duckie get stranded on a ledge with Thud, and the entire time Thud tries to eat them but his tail is stuck in a pile of rubble so he can't reach. Thud ends up mocking Chomper and telling him that no one is coming, but of course he's proven wrong and when the gang comes back to save Chomper and Duckie, Thud looks incredibly defeated as he resigns himself to being stuck since he knows of course no one is coming for him. Then Chomper turns around and helps Thud lighten the load off his tail. He doesn't free him entirely, but he pushes enough rocks away so that Thud could wiggle his way out with some effort after everyone left. The conflict ends with Thud repaying his debt to Chomper by leading Red Claw on a false trail when he knew Chomper and the gang were cornered. Chomper saved the life of a dino who unapologetically tried to eat him and his friends on multiple occasions and insulted him and his friends multiple times and clearly had no remorse for his actions. Chomper is _the_ best boy.
Imagine beating the odds to make it in the highly competitive field of animation after the doubts and disdain of your parents and family, after hours of learning animation software and taking art classes and practicing and applying everywhere that has any job opening. This is it. This is the culmination of a life's dream, a dream you've held in your heart since you were a little kid watching cartoons on Saturday mornings. You are about to become more than a mere artist, you're going to become a true creator- and then they tell you you're animating the Guido sleepwalking scene.
@@BvousBrainSystems I could be wrong but flash animation could be used to emulate 2D, and many kids shows around that time were using that technology to animate what people classified as 2D. typically not as well done but you could still cut corners regardless, esp during a 12 minute clip like that lol
Let me get this straight. a) Chomper can’t talk when he’s super young b) Chomper CAN talk when he gets a bit older (but he’s still youngish) c) Chompers parents can’t talk So is there only a small window for T-Rex’s to talk? Or is it that Chomper spent enough time with the gang that he can speak some of their Dino language? I’m intrigued and fascinated by this for no important reason.
Chomper's parents can talk (I used to watch 5 the most as a kid, and I remember Chomper needed to translate for the other Dinos), T-rex's have their own language, but Chomper stuck around the main cast long enough to learn theirs.
What if they have the intellectual capacity for speech, but their mouths just physically can't make that shape? There's some low-key body horror in the idea that as Chomper grows up he gradually loses his ability to enunciate (while still being fully capable of forming sentences in his head).
I actually remember the context to this when I was a kid - early on in the movie Littlefoot is talking about Thicknose and Grandpa says that Thicknose has "a lot of dignity." he explains that dignity is "feeling you have something to offer", and it's very very sad when you are robbed of it. So when Littlefoot hears Thicknose say that he puts two and two together with what his Grandpa said. It's not exactly Pixar - hell it's not even really Dreamworks - but I remember it being one of the more well observed and affecting depictions of an aspect of childhood/growing up in the series, at least I thought so when I was nine lmao.
The ‘Ugliness’ of the Dinosaur designs is something I would defend about the original movie. The whole movie had an ‘Ugliness’ to it, a layer of texture and realism that is often completely ignored in kids movies. The movie’s imagery stuck in kids minds, or at least mine, because its ugliness was memorable and fascinating. I think that the idea that kids prefer ‘cute’ characters and designs has more to do with ease of visual processing and the perception of kids themselves as cute. Children are often drawn to ugly, frightening, or dirty things out of a natural curiosity. The ugliness of these Dinosaurs presents a realness that I think many kids crave.
I totally agree, Bluth seemed to be interested in merging cute with gritty. Though, I remember some movies leaning on just the cute side and being pretty lame.
Idk, I remember being a kid and really disliking the character design in the films precisely because it was wrinkly and gummy and bleh. Plenty of people have very fond memories of Disney films and their character designs which are far more visually appealing.
The original designs kind of remind me of those old story books with the gold spine decal. I remember thinking most of those characters were hideous and dated in style even as a kid. I didn't mind the Land Before Dinosaurs though for some reason
I very distinctly remember those egg stealing dinosaurs so much that I forgot they weren’t in the original film, like in my mind they are the main villains of the whole franchise that egg song really must have got to me
They're only main antagonists in the second LBT movie. Dil and Icky are main villains in the fourth movie, and in the third, there was just a trio of bully dinosaurs and the leader was Hip.
"What will be my next topic..." (Gazes across pool of plushies) "So I've decided to play all the Putt-Putt the Car and Freddie Fish games, and place them all- In A Numbered List~!"
It honestly makes me wonder what her storage situation is, because she rotates them in and out for different videos, and it's likely we haven't even seen all of them yet. Where in her house is she storing all of them?
"Get It Together, Petrie, You're 45." hahaha, that got me. I'm Aria Curzon, voice of Ducky in films 5-14 and the TV series. I'm starting a podcast, and am talking with Rob Paulsen today (Spike, Yakko Warner, Pinky, and more) and during my refresher course on our history together, I came across your video. This was fun to watch, thank you for making it! :)
I can’t stop thinking about the fact that sleepwalking bit goes on for 12 minutes… that’s insane! I could boil and eat an egg and that dinosaur would still be walking about
I think a big part of why LBT1 resonated with me as a kid, aside from the fact that I was raised in a Christian community, was the fact that my parents had to explain death to me at a very young age because I had a disabled sister who could drop dead at any moment. Bami and Lion King both had deaths in them, but it wasn't handled the same way as it was in LBT1. They really showed Littlefoot's grieving process; seeing her shadow and thinking it's her, being so depressed he won't eat even when he's starving, getting irrationally angry and blaming her for her own death, and clinging to the memory of her throughout the whole film. It didn't just cut away from the sad part and skip years ahead in time or have Littlefoot just immediately get over it and go to a desert and declare himself Littlefoot Skywalker, it really portrayed the pain of losing a loved one.
TBH I never got why Bambi's mum was such a big deal when her death was glossed over so fast. Land Before Time made you sit in those feelings and process the concepts of death & grief. (Then again, maybe that's WHY so many kids couldn't get over Ma Bambi.)
I loved the Land Before Time movies growing up particularly because of the aspect that Littlefoot is raised by his grandparent's as I myself pretty much was. I loved seeing that represented, in fact I loved that the movie feature incredibly diverse parents and guardians all round. From Cera's single father eventually remarrying and becoming a blended family. Spikes adoption and being raised alongside Ducky and her siblings. And Peetrees single mother I just loved it.
Ok, so the “EEEEEEGS” villain was definitely a meme in my household growing up. Like whenever my mom said she was cooking eggs she would use that voice. And completely randomly we would burst into his villain song. The Eggs villain is ICONIC.
I very vaguely remember watching one of these. I had no idea there were more! pretty sure my mom found the dvd in a discount section of biedronka or carrefour
That joke is imprinted in my brain, I barely remember most LBT sequel plot points besides all the plots revolving around extinction events AND all the cartoonish references to ways dinos would die tragically often being preserved as fossils, like all the goop (very existential for cheery kid cartoons), but that joke is the one thing that reminds me I saw many of them
I was never a huge Uncle Pterano fan per se but i was pretty disappointed when i found out that, after LBT7 ended with him being exiled for "five cold times", LBT12 (which came out five years later) was called Great Day of the Flyers but did not feature Pterano's dramatic return.
When you casually said “Sarah is racist” I laughed out loud Something about using the word ‘racist’ to describe a cartoon baby dinosaur is truly surreal
Same here, had a lot of fictional father figures but Doc and Cassim (Aladdins dad) were my top. Which honestly says a lot as they're both absent father figures as well
I did this with Hey Arnold's dad THE ONE THAT WAS NEVER THERE! (I'm sorry) lol. Actually Mr. Nguyen was a pretty good role model. I took my advice from Uncle Iroh as I got a bit older. Both shows still rules.
The first film was translated as “In search of the Enchanted Valley” in Spain, and the fact that they kept it as the title for all the sequels, just adding in a subtitle, meant that our general understanding of the premise was that they spent 14 films looking for the damned valley and they still had not found it by the end.
Same in italy ahaha :D TBF, they probably didn't know that it was going to spawn a franchise at the time so it worked for the first one and then they had to stuck with it :P
Yes! Mysterious Island was always my favorite. It was actually kind of a holy grail for me as well, since it was the only one we had recorded off of Cartoon Network's old Cartoon Theater. For some reason we never labeled the VHS, so I would always have to hunt for it and mostly found it by chance. It was also very special to me because of how Chomper and his parents spoke. I might be misremembering, but I think subtitles appeared for their conversations. At that time, I was living in the US but my english was still very weak, and I was made fun of constantly for speaking two languages. My father told me that when we talk, we're just like Chomper and his parents: only we could understand one another, and that doesn't make it weird, it makes it special. He said that meant the sharptooths had their own lives nobody else could understand, and they were happy that way. But because Chomper spoke both languages, he could have friends and lives in two worlds. It really helped me with my self-confidence, and because of that it always has a place in my heart.
I'm sorry you were bullied because you are bilingual. If you're in the US, it does seem that a lot of white people have a deep insecurity about only speaking one language (unlike most of the world). That's a really great observation! Each of the dinosaur families had a different arrangement (raised by single mom, grandparents, adopted etc) it just makes sense to add a bilingual family too. Thanks for your perspective!
@@celisewillis Thank you! That is an interesting idea, I had never thought of the series in that way, but it's true! And yes, I'm still in the US, and my English has improved a lot. I now view being bilingual as a source of pride for myself (not that I feel superior to others, but that it is a special gift). I appreciate your words! I sincerely hope that things have gotten much better for kids in my circumstances in schools now than when I was young. I don't know if that's the case, but I don't wish that on any child. I actually work in the medical field now specifically helping immigrants from my home country, so I always try to encourage them to not look down on themselves. People like you make life so much easier for everyone!
No matter how many time I watch this video, a small child dinosaur saying “Rob you of your dignity?!” In the most affronted tone makes me bust out laughing
i still have sudden flashbacks to BBBBW whenever im near an ocean or lake i physically have to stop myself from bursting into song like a two-bit broadway-knockoff
I definitely remember Daddy Topps the most. He was always mean for no reason but he represented so many kids' experience of having a friend whose parents you couldn't imagine having as your own parent. But like that's also their dad and you know they love them, but you're so glad you have a parent that isn't like that. IDK that really stuck with me.
Okay but the perfect comedic timing of the grandpa calmly responding to a question and then instantly passing out, plus the insnae noise of him his giant now-unconscious body hitting the rocks
I babysit a kid who loves dinosaurs and reads all these dinosaur fact books and the sequels with feathered dinosaurs are her favorite. She calls them "the BETTER dinosaurs" and I love that.
When you said "LBT fandom" I misheard it as "LGBT" and I didn't even question that the gay community was apparently really into the land before Time movies
More like the stupidest thing I've ever heard...🙄😒 It can't be about racism when it's about different species or even just different races! 🤦♂ The point of racism to begin with is to consider others from the same species or race as yours as if they weren't, so it just starts straight up from a lie or sheer ignorance, first of all, and then to set up a hierarchy from that, by putting yours at the top of the list, and sometimes ended up in the worst possible case scenario: which is of course planning to exterminate the "lesser races" than yours because you consider them either useless or annoying or harmful for your own kind, usually all of it at once, so in short mass genocide, etc... But yeah, anyway...I just randomly discovered her channel, and OMG, that was the first and very last video I'll ever watch again from her! What an insufferable, obnoxious, miserable, and just absolutely unbearable girl, like no kidding, seriously...😱😓🤯🤢🤮😤😡
I don't know if you're familiar with Impractical Jokers, but it reminds me of the time Joe was working at the Cake Boss bakery and said to the customer that his doctor told him he had six weeks to live six weeks ago, and pretended to collapse dead on the floor the moment he handed the cupcakes over
The egg song is double as bad and funny in finnish dub, because the word egg in finnish is also a nickname for testicles. I remember me and my cousin laughing like Beavis and Butthead while watching that scene, constantly rewinding it over and over.
I had the opposite experience 😔 I feel like I've seen 1 or 2 but based off Jenny's synopsis and the clips I cannot figure out which of the 14 I've seen lmao.
Me: "I'm pretty sure I've never seen any of the LBT sequels either." 34:00 : "EGGS!" Me: An instant, *scarring* flashback deep into childhood memories I did not know I had, the voice of this dinosaur saying "eggs" tattooed indelibly on the deepest recesses of my mind in flaming letters 40 feet high, the dinosaur saying "eggs" over and over as my grip on reality slowly loosens, etc.
Yes! I know I had once seen this sometime decades ago and had zero memory of anything that happened in it, and then the "eggs" thing was like having a movie-style flashback.
In one of the sequels it was revealed that his name may have been Topsy. Not sure if that's his real name or just a nickname. You can decide which one it is 🙂

We have a local drag family that all names themselves after the Topps family because their names all have accidental double entendre. "Cera Topps" (Share a top), "Daddy Topps", (Daddy tops), and Tria Topps (Try a top). They had a new drag king join briefly, named "Juan Topps" (Want tops?) but he only performed for like 4 months before quitting. Its a deep cut. For sure. I think they've also performed a few of the LBT songs.
I love your videos, Jenny! As the voice of "Cera" in the Land Before Time franchise and "Phoebe" in Hey Arnold (which you talk about in another one of your videos), I may be slightly biased ;)
not me just now finding out her name was Cera like triceratops and not Sarah.....i feel very dumb i always found it weird she had a human name and not a dino name like the others 🤦♀️
My sisters were at the right age to enjoy these movies, I only remember the first. But one night they rented Number 7. My mom fell asleep, and woke up right when the credits rolled. She asked "What happened? How did it end?" And my stunned 11 year old sister said "Aliens came. Then they left." And neither sister ever asked to see any more of these movies.
Wait what?! I own most of the Land Before Time movies of VHS somewhere in my house, but I don’t think I’ve seen the last two or three. I certainly don’t remember aliens lmao. I’ll have to revisit all of them now, if only to relive my childhood
their was a lot of good moments in the star wars sequel trilogy my favorite quote comes from rey near the end of the movie and she says this to ben solo/kylo ren she tells him youll never be as powerfull as darth vader that's the greatest quote iv ever heard rey say and its the best damn line in the whole god damn movie that's one of the reasons why I love the force awakens soo much I also seriously love the last jedi and the rise of skywalker

I remember when I came to England and could only say like really basic, bare sentences in the language. Me and my friends had watched Land before Time and they, cermeoniously under the monkey bars; dubbed me Chomper, because I didin't speak English. It made me honestly feel a lot more happy and open to making dumb mistakes when speaking and thats probably the only reason I went out of my way to teach my friends my OG language and to learn theirs. We all got codenames from that movie based on our characteristics. Land before time is a product of the time! (literally). Honestly in general, plop kid me down and play all these movies and I would be entertained for HOURS. They opened up a whole new door to play pretend, some were lazy and uninspiring yeah but thats basically any child-oriented franchise that streched out their one mildly succesful movie on a little too long. I honestly love and will always love LBT, all 14 movies of it.
Feels a little forced to me, like, we're mean't to believe she had a sister this WHOLE TIME and she never mentioned her!? Jeez, it's like Shining Armour all over again.
@@FillBar I advocate for the genocide of anyone who reminds me of Cool Cat, thank you very much. Pretty sure if you check the legal definition it would count despite not being an ethnicity.

"Cashing in on the concept of dinosaurs, and trusting that kids love dinosaurs. And they do, so it's a success" is a very sweet way of looking at it. I actually showed this video to my Mum and she said it "finally explained why you kept watching the damned things"
I like how Little Foot is sitting in the corner of the frame, looking down at the ground, tears in his eyes, having a mental breakdown as a mean lady is dunking on his films
If I had a toy company, I would legit hire you as a consultant. You have a deep understanding of how and why children play the way they do - information that so many adults just seem to forget along the way (or just don't care enough). As adults we too often put our own ideas of fun into toys and activities and forget the whole point of playing (imagination, social skills, physical coordination, empathy, understanding how things work).
The original movie still has such an emotional significance for me that when Jenny played like a two second clip of Littlefoot’s mom talking I started crying
The first Land Before Time is probably the most significant movie to my childhood because it was about death in a more visceral way than any movie I'd seen before. Not just cause Littlefoot's mom died, but because the world around them was dying, and even as a kid (like probably 4 or 5) I knew the dinosaurs went extinct so I knew deep down that all of these characters were dead in some sense. There's even a scene where Littlefoot talks to an old dinosaur about his mom's death that I still think about from time to time. I know that it may seem like a thin movie as an adult, but I swear as a kid that movie had a huge impact on my understanding of death and how to process it.
not to mention that littlefoot's mother's death has literally stuck with me all my life. like i still sob when i watch it once in a blue moon. just something about how it was done - the score, the voice acting - really just is like a conduit about all my childhood fears about losing my mother. if it was to watch the movie again i'd probably be bored, but no matter what that scene will always have an impact on me
i respect that movie for how overtly hostile the world is. It seems like a movie for toddlers but it scared the crap out of me when i was a kid. literally everything is out to get them and the visuals are so visceral and terrifying
I feel the same way. I still have trouble watching THAT scene. And now that I'm almost forty and have lost a lot of family, including my mother, and dealt with hard times, it seems so much more poignant.
As a kid, we all decided that Littlefood et al. DID die, and the whole finding the Great Valley was some sort of hallucination/after-death vision or something. I mean, it just REALLY wasn't plausible that after everything the kids went through, they were just going to hop on home and everyone was going to be fine.
I seriously cannot believe you have the hot take that number 5 is the best one. I would watch that one over and over again as a child, way more than the others and this video actually helped me understand why little me was so obsessed. it checked ALL the boxes!
I'd like to join in and say the "not me" chime in from some random bronto when she's referencing the episode about the medicinal flower from the doomed land absolutely killed me.
It reminds me of the clip of Kevin Hart saying he was doing a comedy bit at a Crab Fest where someone disappointed in a joke of his says the same thing
so, it's actually my fault ruby is bright pink. when i was four, my dad was developing the land before time tv show and showed me four potential designs for the new character: ruby. he asked me which one i liked best and, being a stereotypical preschool girl, chose the pepto-bismol pink design because it was pink and my favorite color was pink. originally ruby's dots were going to be purple (per the design preschool me chose because i also liked purple) but then i guess they realized they named a character ruby and she needed to also be red.
@@draculena yep yep yep (lmao, sorry, it was right there)! it is also my fault that ducky's first instinct when in the cave of many voices in the first episode of the tv show is to shout "ah-ooh-gah." my dad called my mom when she was picking me up from preschool to ask me what i would yell in an echoing cave and i, being four, came up with an old car horn sound because i thought it was funny? i'm fuzzy on the why, but i definitely remember yelling "ah-ooh-gah" and it ended up being in the show, lol.
Also, the Mo isn't a Dolphin nor a Dinosaur. It is marine reptile part of the family of Ithyosauridae. He's either an Ithyosaurud or an Ophtalmosaurus. But I believe he's canonically considered an Ophtalmosaurus. This, and the fact the Sharptooth in this movie is a Liopleurodon, really ties this entry with the documentary "Walking with Dinosaurs", namely the episode centered on the sea. Both Liopleurodon and Ophtalmosaurus appear in it.
i know jenny doesnt read the comments but i was honestly having a pretty rough day, i live in minnesota and things are very tense here right now. finding out jenny posted an hour long video about a nostalgic childhood franchise legit made me cry. thank you emotional support youtuber. anyways hope everyone is doing well

@@TheGadgetPanda That's fair, and I guess I don't totally agree with my original statement either. I don't have literally 0 interest in the topics discussed, I just have such a minor interest that it's interesting to see a topic explored in depth and with extensive research that I couldn't be bothered to go that deeply into otherwise. I've seen maybe the original Land Before Time, but there's a version of me that might have been kept up with it and watched more in the series. I think that's why I enjoy the videos like this or about them parks or whatever; it's not something I have enough interest in to devote myself to learning about but is still slightly interesting enough that watching someone else's deep analysis can be entertaining. But if you have *literally* no knowledge of or interest in the topic at hand, then maybe you don't actually get anything out of it.
TBH, a setup involving "we can't eat the Tree Sweets before Nibbling Day" turning into Littlefoot attempting to prevent a casually-declared genocide of tinysauruses is pretty close to the parody of these movies I might have made without having seen them.
I've never agreed with a video more than I do with this one. I believe I saw all of these movies growing up and tho I don't remember most of them, the ones with Chomper were the ones I enjoyed most. Apparently, LBT5 is my favorite because I've been singing "Big Big Water" and "Friends For Dinner" ever since I heard them all those years ago. Thanks to this video, I better understand my aunt's digust with "every other scene being a song" remark from back then. 😂 This was a great trip down memory lane, so thanks for that.

Chomper’s bilingual status is kinda cute. Like a Latino kid who speaks English in school but Spanish to their parents.
It would be kinda cute if Chomper taught his friends how to speak T-Rex. When I was younger, my friends would teach me basic greetings and conversation in the language their parents spoke, and as a result I know basic Bengali, Spanish, French, and Japanese.

"Hm yes, thats an interesting departure, I'm looking forward to seeing where they take this, could make for some interesting character drama."
but also that.
"The Yellowbellies are named Loofa, Doofa, and Foobi. I hate them terribly, these awful idiot dinosaurs" is such a powerful line so full of scorn I feel like it could be from some long lost Edgar Allen Poe short story

Further proof of Chomper being the best character is in the cartoon.
The cartoon has a reoccurring villain in Red Claw and his two goons Thud and Screech.
In one episode, Chomper and Duckie get stranded on a ledge with Thud, and the entire time Thud tries to eat them but his tail is stuck in a pile of rubble so he can't reach.
Thud ends up mocking Chomper and telling him that no one is coming, but of course he's proven wrong and when the gang comes back to save Chomper and Duckie, Thud looks incredibly defeated as he resigns himself to being stuck since he knows of course no one is coming for him.
Then Chomper turns around and helps Thud lighten the load off his tail. He doesn't free him entirely, but he pushes enough rocks away so that Thud could wiggle his way out with some effort after everyone left.
The conflict ends with Thud repaying his debt to Chomper by leading Red Claw on a false trail when he knew Chomper and the gang were cornered.
Chomper saved the life of a dino who unapologetically tried to eat him and his friends on multiple occasions and insulted him and his friends multiple times and clearly had no remorse for his actions. Chomper is _the_ best boy.

Can u imagine having to animate 12 full minutes of guido sleepwalking
Imagine beating the odds to make it in the highly competitive field of animation after the doubts and disdain of your parents and family, after hours of learning animation software and taking art classes and practicing and applying everywhere that has any job opening. This is it. This is the culmination of a life's dream, a dream you've held in your heart since you were a little kid watching cartoons on Saturday mornings. You are about to become more than a mere artist, you're going to become a true creator-
and then they tell you you're animating the Guido sleepwalking scene.
At least they can reuse the same walk cycle for 12 minutes.
yeah...a ton of CTRL V
@@crisptomato9495 That would be true in 3D animation, but this being 2D, they legitimately had to draw all of it. I weep for them quite frankly
@@BvousBrainSystems I could be wrong but flash animation could be used to emulate 2D, and many kids shows around that time were using that technology to animate what people classified as 2D. typically not as well done but you could still cut corners regardless, esp during a 12 minute clip like that lol
Let me get this straight.
a) Chomper can’t talk when he’s super young
b) Chomper CAN talk when he gets a bit older (but he’s still youngish)
c) Chompers parents can’t talk
So is there only a small window for T-Rex’s to talk? Or is it that Chomper spent enough time with the gang that he can speak some of their Dino language? I’m intrigued and fascinated by this for no important reason.
Maybe the T-Rex have their own unique language, and Chomper decided to learn their language after they raised him.
Chomper is bilingual confirmed.
Chomper's parents can talk (I used to watch 5 the most as a kid, and I remember Chomper needed to translate for the other Dinos), T-rex's have their own language, but Chomper stuck around the main cast long enough to learn theirs.
What if they have the intellectual capacity for speech, but their mouths just physically can't make that shape? There's some low-key body horror in the idea that as Chomper grows up he gradually loses his ability to enunciate (while still being fully capable of forming sentences in his head).
These are movies for toddlers.
The scene where they're drowning and an aquatic dinosaur comes from out of nowhere to save them is a classic Deus Loch Machina
"I'm David Hasselhoff."
Deus ex Lochina was right there

You're killing me. In a good way...
It‘s extra funny if you read 13 1/2 lives of Captain Bluebear where there‘s an entire race of dinosaurs whose only job is to save people last minute.

Littlefoot is too conscious of what he's doing to his kindergarten teacher
It was the time before time.
I actually remember the context to this when I was a kid - early on in the movie Littlefoot is talking about Thicknose and Grandpa says that Thicknose has "a lot of dignity." he explains that dignity is "feeling you have something to offer", and it's very very sad when you are robbed of it. So when Littlefoot hears Thicknose say that he puts two and two together with what his Grandpa said. It's not exactly Pixar - hell it's not even really Dreamworks - but I remember it being one of the more well observed and affecting depictions of an aspect of childhood/growing up in the series, at least I thought so when I was nine lmao.
The ‘Ugliness’ of the Dinosaur designs is something I would defend about the original movie. The whole movie had an ‘Ugliness’ to it, a layer of texture and realism that is often completely ignored in kids movies. The movie’s imagery stuck in kids minds, or at least mine, because its ugliness was memorable and fascinating. I think that the idea that kids prefer ‘cute’ characters and designs has more to do with ease of visual processing and the perception of kids themselves as cute. Children are often drawn to ugly, frightening, or dirty things out of a natural curiosity. The ugliness of these Dinosaurs presents a realness that I think many kids crave.
I totally agree, Bluth seemed to be interested in merging cute with gritty. Though, I remember some movies leaning on just the cute side and being pretty lame.
Idk, I remember being a kid and really disliking the character design in the films precisely because it was wrinkly and gummy and bleh. Plenty of people have very fond memories of Disney films and their character designs which are far more visually appealing.
The dinosaurs were ugly? As a kid, I found the designs endearing.
or, at least distinct character design (rather than, "ugliness")
The original designs kind of remind me of those old story books with the gold spine decal. I remember thinking most of those characters were hideous and dated in style even as a kid. I didn't mind the Land Before Dinosaurs though for some reason
I very distinctly remember those egg stealing dinosaurs so much that I forgot they weren’t in the original film, like in my mind they are the main villains of the whole franchise that egg song really must have got to me
_e g g s_
They're only main antagonists in the second LBT movie. Dil and Icky are main villains in the fourth movie, and in the third, there was just a trio of bully dinosaurs and the leader was Hip.

I think a big part of why LBT1 resonated with me as a kid, aside from the fact that I was raised in a Christian community, was the fact that my parents had to explain death to me at a very young age because I had a disabled sister who could drop dead at any moment. Bami and Lion King both had deaths in them, but it wasn't handled the same way as it was in LBT1. They really showed Littlefoot's grieving process; seeing her shadow and thinking it's her, being so depressed he won't eat even when he's starving, getting irrationally angry and blaming her for her own death, and clinging to the memory of her throughout the whole film. It didn't just cut away from the sad part and skip years ahead in time or have Littlefoot just immediately get over it and go to a desert and declare himself Littlefoot Skywalker, it really portrayed the pain of losing a loved one.
I sense salt in this very heartfelt comment
TBH I never got why Bambi's mum was such a big deal when her death was glossed over so fast. Land Before Time made you sit in those feelings and process the concepts of death & grief. (Then again, maybe that's WHY so many kids couldn't get over Ma Bambi.)
"aside from the fact that I was raised in a Christian community"
I feel like I have missed something crucial here.
yeah this was always one of my favorite parts of the first movie
It's not a Jenny comment section without remarks towards Rise of Skywalker...and I'm here for it
I loved the Land Before Time movies growing up particularly because of the aspect that Littlefoot is raised by his grandparent's as I myself pretty much was. I loved seeing that represented, in fact I loved that the movie feature incredibly diverse parents and guardians all round. From Cera's single father eventually remarrying and becoming a blended family. Spikes adoption and being raised alongside Ducky and her siblings. And Peetrees single mother I just loved it.
Ok, so the “EEEEEEGS” villain was definitely a meme in my household growing up. Like whenever my mom said she was cooking eggs she would use that voice. And completely randomly we would burst into his villain song. The Eggs villain is ICONIC.
I would regularly loom over my little sisters and go "YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE EGGS!! THRICE A DAY, AT LEAST!!"
Oviraptors are great.
Even if these lack the iconic oviraptor crest and beak, I'm gonna call them oviraptors, because they're raptoring ova.
Yessssss! 😂😂😂 I used to sing this all the time! Props to your mom for starting a hilarious family tradition and memory!
Me and my brothers grew up watching the Dutch dub of the second movie and it became a meme in our household too: EIERENNN!
My parents still bring that shit up today
Fun fact, I watched it in Polish when I was little, and Petrie was not only voiced by a child, but also talked with absolutely normal grammar
Yes! And hearing the songs from the movies in their original language also is strange for me. Sometimes Polish versions are funnier
I have to see that. I need to find a polish versión of these movies

My favorite bit in LBT 5 was when Chomper's parents see him with the gang and tell him not to play with his food.
That joke is imprinted in my brain, I barely remember most LBT sequel plot points besides all the plots revolving around extinction events AND all the cartoonish references to ways dinos would die tragically often being preserved as fossils, like all the goop (very existential for cheery kid cartoons), but that joke is the one thing that reminds me I saw many of them
I recall a bit where they see Chopper singing while gathering plants for the others and one of them goes “Sometimes I worry about that boy.”
I was never a huge Uncle Pterano fan per se but i was pretty disappointed when i found out that, after LBT7 ended with him being exiled for "five cold times", LBT12 (which came out five years later) was called Great Day of the Flyers but did not feature Pterano's dramatic return.

(I'm sorry) lol. Actually Mr. Nguyen was a pretty good role model.
I took my advice from Uncle Iroh as I got a bit older. Both shows still rules.
The first film was translated as “In search of the Enchanted Valley” in Spain, and the fact that they kept it as the title for all the sequels, just adding in a subtitle, meant that our general understanding of the premise was that they spent 14 films looking for the damned valley and they still had not found it by the end.
@TheLostAge That’s good! For some reason in Spain they always took creative liberties and made up stuff like this 😅
Same in italy ahaha :D
TBF, they probably didn't know that it was going to spawn a franchise at the time so it worked for the first one and then they had to stuck with it :P
Pior que no BR foi a mesma coisa e é muito real, ficava chateada deles nunca acharem o tal do vale
Same in Brazil
That's amazing
Yes! Mysterious Island was always my favorite. It was actually kind of a holy grail for me as well, since it was the only one we had recorded off of Cartoon Network's old Cartoon Theater. For some reason we never labeled the VHS, so I would always have to hunt for it and mostly found it by chance.
It was also very special to me because of how Chomper and his parents spoke. I might be misremembering, but I think subtitles appeared for their conversations. At that time, I was living in the US but my english was still very weak, and I was made fun of constantly for speaking two languages. My father told me that when we talk, we're just like Chomper and his parents: only we could understand one another, and that doesn't make it weird, it makes it special. He said that meant the sharptooths had their own lives nobody else could understand, and they were happy that way. But because Chomper spoke both languages, he could have friends and lives in two worlds. It really helped me with my self-confidence, and because of that it always has a place in my heart.
I'm sorry you were bullied because you are bilingual. If you're in the US, it does seem that a lot of white people have a deep insecurity about only speaking one language (unlike most of the world).
That's a really great observation! Each of the dinosaur families had a different arrangement (raised by single mom, grandparents, adopted etc) it just makes sense to add a bilingual family too. Thanks for your perspective!
That is so heartwarming- your dad must have been a sweetheart!
@@celisewillis Thank you! That is an interesting idea, I had never thought of the series in that way, but it's true! And yes, I'm still in the US, and my English has improved a lot. I now view being bilingual as a source of pride for myself (not that I feel superior to others, but that it is a special gift). I appreciate your words! I sincerely hope that things have gotten much better for kids in my circumstances in schools now than when I was young. I don't know if that's the case, but I don't wish that on any child. I actually work in the medical field now specifically helping immigrants from my home country, so I always try to encourage them to not look down on themselves.

"Cera Topps" (Share a top), "Daddy Topps", (Daddy tops), and Tria Topps (Try a top). They had a new drag king join briefly, named "Juan Topps" (Want tops?) but he only performed for like 4 months before quitting. Its a deep cut. For sure. I think they've also performed a few of the LBT songs.
That sounds fucking disgusting.
this is the best comment on the entire internet
That is so cute!

I love your videos, Jenny! As the voice of "Cera" in the Land Before Time franchise and "Phoebe" in Hey Arnold (which you talk about in another one of your videos), I may be slightly biased ;)
@Hans Yolo Yeah, because voice actors, they don't exist, amirite?
Hey! Cera was always my favourite character! Thank you for bringing her to life!
Wow, it's not that common to see major voice actors comment on RUclips videos. I've always liked your acting, as well as your singing voice
You gave Cera so much personality, she was always my favorite! Thank you!
not me just now finding out her name was Cera like triceratops and not Sarah.....i feel very dumb i always found it weird she had a human name and not a dino name like the others 🤦♀️
My sisters were at the right age to enjoy these movies, I only remember the first. But one night they rented Number 7. My mom fell asleep, and woke up right when the credits rolled. She asked "What happened? How did it end?" And my stunned 11 year old sister said "Aliens came. Then they left." And neither sister ever asked to see any more of these movies.
😂😂😂😂😂It took my tiny child mind forever to figure out they were aliens!!!😂😂😂😂😂
Wait what?! I own most of the Land Before Time movies of VHS somewhere in my house, but I don’t think I’ve seen the last two or three. I certainly don’t remember aliens lmao. I’ll have to revisit all of them now, if only to relive my childhood
"Get it together Petrie, you're 45" occupies a place in my brain indelibly.

their was a lot of good moments in the star wars sequel trilogy my favorite quote comes from rey near the end of the movie and she says this to ben solo/kylo ren she tells him youll never be as powerfull as darth vader that's the greatest quote iv ever heard rey say and its the best damn line in the whole god damn movie that's one of the reasons why I love the force awakens soo much I also seriously love the last jedi and the rise of skywalker
Don’t press “read more” on the guy above me he keeps talking about Star Wars
@@subline_funtime yes i will admit it im a star wars fanboy and also I have to admit this as well im in love with my moment in history known as the American civil war or the war between the states and yes Robert e lee is my all time favorite commanding general and yes I love love Ulysses s grant as well their both of my all time favorite commanding generals
I remember when I came to England and could only say like really basic, bare sentences in the language. Me and my friends had watched Land before Time and they, cermeoniously under the monkey bars; dubbed me Chomper, because I didin't speak English. It made me honestly feel a lot more happy and open to making dumb mistakes when speaking and thats probably the only reason I went out of my way to teach my friends my OG language and to learn theirs. We all got codenames from that movie based on our characteristics. Land before time is a product of the time! (literally).
Honestly in general, plop kid me down and play all these movies and I would be entertained for HOURS. They opened up a whole new door to play pretend, some were lazy and uninspiring yeah but thats basically any child-oriented franchise that streched out their one mildly succesful movie on a little too long.
I honestly love and will always love LBT, all 14 movies of it.
Jenny has a sister? Oooh, they're expanding the canon
Yeah, what’s HER superpower?
I like her twitch streams. She’s got the cool emo goth style.
Her sister was banished by Odin for being too Reckless.
Feels a little forced to me, like, we're mean't to believe she had a sister this WHOLE TIME and she never mentioned her!? Jeez, it's like Shining Armour all over again.
I hope there's a storyline where it turns out Jenny's sister has Buzzy! "This isn't what it looks like!"
Not only is Daddy Topps racist, but he also advocates for genocide in Tinysauruses
#DaddyToppsIsOverParty
Sounds like Daddy Derek's genocide for bullies.
@@FillBar I advocate for the genocide of anyone who reminds me of Cool Cat, thank you very much. Pretty sure if you check the legal definition it would count despite not being an ethnicity.

Love that Loofah, Doofah, and Fubee ALL could be the names of competing video streaming platforms today
theres one called Fubo and one called Tubi so. if you combine the two were already a third of the way there
They missed a chance not calling the third one Fubah/Fubar
LMAO why is this so fitting
TUBI

There's also FILO (Feel-O)
which sounds like a robot for feelings
I joined the Fubee streaming service just yesterday! It offers great content.
I love the little “peanut gallery” comment from the land of mist bronto when grandma asks who will take her to get the medicine, and the one bronto is like “fuck that”
"Cashing in on the concept of dinosaurs, and trusting that kids love dinosaurs. And they do, so it's a success" is a very sweet way of looking at it. I actually showed this video to my Mum and she said it "finally explained why you kept watching the damned things"
My mom loved these movies even more than I did
I like how Little Foot is sitting in the corner of the frame, looking down at the ground, tears in his eyes, having a mental breakdown as a mean lady is dunking on his films
And Chomper loves it
LMAO i was thinking this too

If I had a toy company, I would legit hire you as a consultant. You have a deep understanding of how and why children play the way they do - information that so many adults just seem to forget along the way (or just don't care enough). As adults we too often put our own ideas of fun into toys and activities and forget the whole point of playing (imagination, social skills, physical coordination, empathy, understanding how things work).
The original movie still has such an emotional significance for me that when Jenny played like a two second clip of Littlefoot’s mom talking I started crying
The first Land Before Time is probably the most significant movie to my childhood because it was about death in a more visceral way than any movie I'd seen before. Not just cause Littlefoot's mom died, but because the world around them was dying, and even as a kid (like probably 4 or 5) I knew the dinosaurs went extinct so I knew deep down that all of these characters were dead in some sense. There's even a scene where Littlefoot talks to an old dinosaur about his mom's death that I still think about from time to time. I know that it may seem like a thin movie as an adult, but I swear as a kid that movie had a huge impact on my understanding of death and how to process it.
not to mention that littlefoot's mother's death has literally stuck with me all my life. like i still sob when i watch it once in a blue moon. just something about how it was done - the score, the voice acting - really just is like a conduit about all my childhood fears about losing my mother. if it was to watch the movie again i'd probably be bored, but no matter what that scene will always have an impact on me
i respect that movie for how overtly hostile the world is. It seems like a movie for toddlers but it scared the crap out of me when i was a kid. literally everything is out to get them and the visuals are so visceral and terrifying
I feel the same way. I still have trouble watching THAT scene. And now that I'm almost forty and have lost a lot of family, including my mother, and dealt with hard times, it seems so much more poignant.
As a kid, we all decided that Littlefood et al. DID die, and the whole finding the Great Valley was some sort of hallucination/after-death vision or something. I mean, it just REALLY wasn't plausible that after everything the kids went through, they were just going to hop on home and everyone was going to be fine.
It holds up - it's a classic
SOMEONE on that writing team knew why calling him “Daddy Topps” was funny. And they deserved a pay raise.
I've been losing it ever since she first said his name-
Daddy Topps puts the G in LBT
@@Takeshi357 I AM HOWLING OMG. 😂
uh, yeah, i sure hope he does
@@Cheapducky I guarantee you that Top/Bottom terminology existed in the '80s.
I'm sorry, but Littlefoot's grandpa going "Oh!" and falling over will never fail to make me laugh. Idk if it's your editing but
IT'S SO ABRUPT
I know, I replayed that clip several times 😆
He doesn’t even sway or try to regain balance. He’s just walking, and boom he’s winded
I cackled
i distinctly remember watching that one as a kid and i am overjoyed to tell you that in the movie that is, in fact, exactly how it happens
10:25 hehehehe
I seriously cannot believe you have the hot take that number 5 is the best one. I would watch that one over and over again as a child, way more than the others and this video actually helped me understand why little me was so obsessed. it checked ALL the boxes!
Big fan of the random clip of a triceratops saying "Oh honey no"
Me tooooo. I've started saying that now 😆
Can't believe that has yet to become a meme

I'd like to join in and say the "not me" chime in from some random bronto when she's referencing the episode about the medicinal flower from the doomed land absolutely killed me.
It reminds me of the clip of Kevin Hart saying he was doing a comedy bit at a Crab Fest where someone disappointed in a joke of his says the same thing
If his name is officially Daddy Topps, does it mean all the adult dinosaurs called him Daddy or was he strictly Mr. Topps...
"They call me MISTER Topps!"
no they call him Mr Three Horn!! And they call littlefoot's Grandpa, Grandpa longneck.
It took me a minute to realize that if he's Daddy Topps then that means Sarah is Sarah Topps.
So the three-horns are all Topps.
That would explain his unending foul mood
@@Burner-B no they call him Mr Three Horn, even Littlefoot's grandfather calls him Mr Three Horn.

so, it's actually my fault ruby is bright pink. when i was four, my dad was developing the land before time tv show and showed me four potential designs for the new character: ruby. he asked me which one i liked best and, being a stereotypical preschool girl, chose the pepto-bismol pink design because it was pink and my favorite color was pink. originally ruby's dots were going to be purple (per the design preschool me chose because i also liked purple) but then i guess they realized they named a character ruby and she needed to also be red.
for real?!!!
@@draculena yep yep yep (lmao, sorry, it was right there)! it is also my fault that ducky's first instinct when in the cave of many voices in the first episode of the tv show is to shout "ah-ooh-gah." my dad called my mom when she was picking me up from preschool to ask me what i would yell in an echoing cave and i, being four, came up with an old car horn sound because i thought it was funny? i'm fuzzy on the why, but i definitely remember yelling "ah-ooh-gah" and it ended up being in the show, lol.
@@fionariley8004 wow, that is just too cute

Did you cause any other changes or anything?
There must be a gay guy out there livid they didn’t think of “Daddy Topps” for their Grindr profile name.
LOL
... You know, I got the “Daddy” part full force. Works with just about anything. I am both annoyed and relieved the “Topps” part didn’t occur to me.

Jenny's fanfic: Trapped In A Island With Chomper
There make be snakes!!
*On an island
@@GimbalosMorkinar Nah man, it's a reference to a different Jenny vid 😚
@@allnaturalfigjam310 Aight, I should have known.
There's a fanfic of their persona with chomper on an island
It's a lemon.
Also, the Mo isn't a Dolphin nor a Dinosaur. It is marine reptile part of the family of Ithyosauridae. He's either an Ithyosaurud or an Ophtalmosaurus. But I believe he's canonically considered an Ophtalmosaurus. This, and the fact the Sharptooth in this movie is a Liopleurodon, really ties this entry with the documentary "Walking with Dinosaurs", namely the episode centered on the sea. Both Liopleurodon and Ophtalmosaurus appear in it.
i know jenny doesnt read the comments but i was honestly having a pretty rough day, i live in minnesota and things are very tense here right now. finding out jenny posted an hour long video about a nostalgic childhood franchise legit made me cry. thank you emotional support youtuber. anyways hope everyone is doing well
Love the comment and the fact she caught it and gave it a heart
I hope it gets better for you. You've got this.

OMG that was the best ad break.
Jenny: “the kids keep the sharp tooth of their scent by covering them in smelly-“

I will never stop being amazed at Jenny’s ability to make me watch hour long videos about things I had no interest in prior to her making a video
She is definitely a witch or something.
I just noticed this was 58 mins long lmao I’m in 52:34 and I don’t even watch her channel and watched ANY of the land before time but now I feel like I watched all of them because of her Lmao
She definitely is a witch
It's just kind of cool to watch someone passionate about something you have literally no interest in otherwise
As a rule, I agree. But this one might be the exception that proves the rule. I'm really struggling and I'm not even 10% in.
@@TheGadgetPanda That's fair, and I guess I don't totally agree with my original statement either. I don't have literally 0 interest in the topics discussed, I just have such a minor interest that it's interesting to see a topic explored in depth and with extensive research that I couldn't be bothered to go that deeply into otherwise. I've seen maybe the original Land Before Time, but there's a version of me that might have been kept up with it and watched more in the series. I think that's why I enjoy the videos like this or about them parks or whatever; it's not something I have enough interest in to devote myself to learning about but is still slightly interesting enough that watching someone else's deep analysis can be entertaining. But if you have *literally* no knowledge of or interest in the topic at hand, then maybe you don't actually get anything out of it.
TBH, a setup involving "we can't eat the Tree Sweets before Nibbling Day" turning into Littlefoot attempting to prevent a casually-declared genocide of tinysauruses is pretty close to the parody of these movies I might have made without having seen them.

"If you squander your aliens, you lose points." - Jenny
Words to live by
You only get to introduce aliens into your franchise for the first time once. Make it count.
probably the only time where I use the phrase "be more like Scooby Doo."
I, for one, promise to never squander my aliens
i've been saying this for years
I've never agreed with a video more than I do with this one. I believe I saw all of these movies growing up and tho I don't remember most of them, the ones with Chomper were the ones I enjoyed most. Apparently, LBT5 is my favorite because I've been singing "Big Big Water" and "Friends For Dinner" ever since I heard them all those years ago. Thanks to this video, I better understand my aunt's digust with "every other scene being a song" remark from back then. 😂 This was a great trip down memory lane, so thanks for that.
