Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on April 25, 2013, 05:59:11 PM
Well, any What if topics are quite funny and interesting so why not make a game about it :lol:
I hope something like this didn't already exist....
So I'll start: What if Mr. Thicknose would be a Hypnotist?

Did you get the idea from me, by any chance? :DD

He'd convince everyone to leave the Great Valley because a "Great Falling Rock" is coming... It doesn't end well. :lol

What is Chomper was grownup, but still living in the Valley?

nope, nope, nope :DD why should I :P:?

Well, Chomper would still live there and he'd be a well accepted resident of the GV. He'd probably live in a cave. As for hunting for food I think he'd go out of the Valley to get some food from time to time.
He might be a good fighter against sharpteeth btw :lol

What if Tria layed more than one egg?

Cera would have to abandon the Gang to become a babysitter.

What if Topsy suddenly became pink-colored?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: The Anonymous Person on June 28, 2013, 11:22:35 AM
The gang would mistake him for Tria and make him angry...until they actually saw her.

What if Spike decided to change his diet?

Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: MurMur on June 28, 2013, 11:25:22 AM
Then he would become a carnivore and eat his friends.

What if Cera suddenly became a longneck?

Post by: Cancerian Tiger on June 28, 2013, 12:31:52 PM
Then all the fans of a LittlefootxCera relationship would be satisfied :p.

What if Ducky found out Tippy was being adopted into her family :blink:?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on June 28, 2013, 01:12:35 PM
She'd ask Ozzy and Strut to throw her off the Great Wall :lol

What if THE Sharptooth is still alive? (I know, a classic what if question :P:)

He, fueled by revenge and confident in his endurance and strength,  would have found a way to enter the Great Valley a long time ago, and would have wrought havoc among the Great Valley dinosaurs. Possibly the Gang would have met an untimely end.

Pterano and Co. did three silly things in a row
1) decided to plot in secret about something that nobody cared about
2) they choose the grassland in what must be the most populated part of the Great Valley to do their plotting
3) they kidnapp an eavesdropper to their silly plot

What if they add
4) Pterano offers Ducky a share in world domination to placate her?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on September 07, 2013, 11:15:14 AM
Ducky would agree but she wouldn't be able to keep what Pterano told and offered her. So sooner or later their plan would fail because everyone would find out :D

What, if 'The Land Before Time' was about a 'Sharptooth Gang' instead of our five beloved leafeaters?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Dosu2Dinner on September 07, 2013, 11:36:41 AM
The target audience might be a little older, considering they'd have to kill to eat, but I don't see it being any problem... :lol

What if The Great Valley was tiny?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on September 07, 2013, 06:32:29 PM
Well, there wouldn't be enough space for that many dinosaurs --> arguments, fights... lack of food etc..

What if Littlefoot had a brother?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: The Anonymous Person on September 07, 2013, 08:03:40 PM
Besides his adopted brother, Shorty, you mean? Well, I'm sure Littlefoot would be thankful at first, but as he starts getting older, he'll probably start acting mean towards Littlefoot, and that...well, that could be a huge problem later on.

What if Petrie never gained his courage to fly by the end of the first movie?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on September 14, 2013, 03:37:58 PM
Ducky would have been eaten by THE Sharptooth and he would have been eaten as well because he's quite slow on his feet. Probably...

What if Littlefoot meets Rooter again?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on September 24, 2013, 12:02:47 PM
Then I bet Littlefoot would thank him for his emotional support during the first movie and then introduce him to his grandparents.

What if Ducky was too afraid to swim in the first film? (I have heard that this was originally to be a plot point of the first film, but the producers finally decided to give a similar character trait - fear of flight - to Petrie instead.)
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: StrutEggStealer on September 24, 2013, 01:19:15 PM
The planning at the end would have taken much, much longer before it was put in motion because Ducky would have absolutely refused to leap for dear life in the pond - she would have wanted to skirt around the bank.

What if the Gang were all one species instead of a variety? (Has this been asked?)
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on September 26, 2013, 08:03:24 PM
Then they probably would never have learned the lesson about tolerating other kinds that they learned in the first film.

What if it turned out that Chomper was related to Red Claw?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: vonboy on September 27, 2013, 02:39:17 AM
Cera, Mr. Threehorn, and probably most of the other grownups would go mental. Littlefoot would still love him, standing by him, and believing in him the whole way. The rest of the gang might be skeptical at first, but would eventually love him again.

What if Chomper's Parents came by the Great Valley for a visit? :DD
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on September 27, 2013, 11:30:18 AM
Mr. Threehorn would drive them out in an instant :lol:

What if the Land Before Time had been about "the bullies" known as Hyp, Mutt and Nod?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on September 27, 2013, 11:55:12 AM
Then the "gang" would have been less likable to the target audience, and the films would have probably become a morality tale about respecting others regardless of how much stronger or older you were.

What if Chomper made a wish on a magical stone and turned all of the gang of seven into sharpteeth? (Yes, in case anyone was wondering, I did get this idea from brekclub85's great fanfiction 'Sharptooth Valley'.)
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on October 09, 2013, 11:51:44 AM
First, they get banned to the Mysterious Beyond for being Sharpteeth, then they'll train hunting and fighting so they can finally end Redclaw's terror regime :lol:

What if... Grandma passes on? How would Littlefoot react?

That actually sounds like an interesting idea for a fanfic.

Littlefoot would be bitterly depressed for a while and would continue to think about her from time to time, but after being comforted by his friends and being reminded of the great circle of life by his grandfather he would eventually return to his old self.

What if Littlefoot continued to grow at a slower pace (as eluded to in LBT XI) than is typical for his species?  In particular how would Shorty and other longnecks react to this development?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on October 11, 2013, 08:15:04 AM
^or for a Roleplay Game... That's a nice idea indeed :D

Well, Littlefoot's Grandparents would always encourage and love him, no matter of their son's size. Shorty would bully him for being too small (so would Cera).
Not sure how Ali would react... I guess she'd accept Littlefoot but she wouldn't like it much that he's smaller than he should be.


What if Pterano meets Rinkus & Sierra again?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on October 23, 2013, 06:56:29 PM
I would imagine that there would be trouble.  Rinkus and Sierra would be irate at Pterano for leading them astray with tales about the power of the Stone of Cold Fire.  Although I suspect Sierra (due to his sociopathic characteristics) would be the main threat in terms of direct violence, as Rinkus would probably only cause trouble if there was some benefit for him in the equation.

What if Spike gained the ability to speak to a meaningful extent?  Would he only talk about food?  :lol
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on November 04, 2013, 10:34:01 AM
Hey, you forgot... zzz :lol He'd talk about food a lot, but also about sleeping or even serious things like the meaning of true friendship...

What if a major argument splits the Gang into two groups? Two might be allying with who?

Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: jansenov on November 04, 2013, 11:35:15 AM
The Gang of Seven would split into Ruby&Chomper vs. the Gang of Five. The Gang of Five would split into three groups: Littlefoot, Cera and everybody else, or into four groups, with only Ducky and Spike staying together.


What if Sue wasn't there?

Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Sleeping-force's-inside on December 06, 2013, 03:41:44 PM
Littlefoot would have slight teethmarks and the BellyDragger would be very, very dead xD

What if there would have been no one to take care of Littlefoot when they found the Valley for the first time? :(
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on December 06, 2013, 04:01:02 PM
A sad but very believable possibility. :(  I would imagine that one of the other residents (perhaps Mama Swimmer?) would take him in temporarily.  Perhaps, as a more permanent solution, he would then be sent off with a wandering longneck herd as soon as one stopped by the valley.

What if the gang didn't realize that all of Mama Swimmer's eggs were in the nest and simply left Chomper's egg in her nest?  Considering hadrosaur maternal instincts, how would Mama Swimmer have reacted to her purple, sharptoothed child?

Heart attack in 3...2...1 :lol:

What if the Cold Time in LBT 8 had never ended?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Sleeping-force's-inside on December 07, 2013, 06:50:59 AM
They would have relocated to the south, and the next movies would have been set in Florida on a sunny beach with everyone drinking cocktails xD

What if Tria and Topsy had NOT had Tricia and Tricia had been a earlier child of Tria about the same age as Cera?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on December 16, 2013, 06:56:30 PM
Well, if she was around the same age as Cera then I think it would be safe to say that there would be a lot more "butting heads" (literally) between the step-siblings considering the usual temperament of threehorns.  

What if Ali chose Rhett as a love interest and outright rejected Littlefoot?  How would he and the gang react?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on December 19, 2013, 09:47:47 AM
Well, let's just say Chomper wouldn't have acted like a threatening Sharptooth but would have BEEN a threatening Sharptooth. Of course they're all pissed off..

^continuing... What if Chomper had attempted to bite Rhett?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on December 19, 2013, 02:41:20 PM
Even if Chomper failed to successfully land the bite, there would have been grave consequences for Chomper.  I do not doubt that the adults would have been exiled from the valley... or worse.  :(

What if Ruby developed an allergy to something in the Great Valley's mud pools?  How would she deal with stress?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: Ducky123 on December 24, 2013, 07:26:40 AM
She would take sunbaths instead.

What if Pterano was Petrie's Father, not uncle?
Title: LBT "What if" Game
Post by: rhombus on February 03, 2014, 11:53:45 PM
I actually think I have read a fanfic somewhere where that happened.  Considering how Pterano is already a father figure of sorts for the young flyer (due to the mysterious absence of Petre's actual father) I don't actual see there being much a difference in the interactions between the two.  Now, if Pterano had stayed and helped raise Petrie in this scenery, then that could have lead to interesting changes indeed  :yes .  For one, perhaps Petrie would have grown to be a bit more outgoing and less fearful.

What if (perhaps in a depraved version of my already depraved fanfic :p ) Chomper was turned into a leafeater, while the other members of the gang were turned into sharpteeth?
