The time gap is what seems to be the most threatening to this film.
We have a left off TV Series that needs to be resolved and pretending it doesn't exist will piss of Chomper and Ruby fans, among others.
Also, we have fans that saw the movies and they have GOT to be in their 30's and 40's now as the first movie came out the year before I was born and I'm 25 going on 26 now.
There have also got to be fans my age who saw Great Valley Adventure, I think, er, maybe, as their first film.
Then, there are those who might be 10-18 who saw the 12th and the 13th, films and the TV Series.
And, now, there are going to be those who see this next one.
Land Before Time has now spanned from 1988 - 2015. That is 27 years!!!! That's gotta be near the record for a continuing film series for kids. (I know, for instance, Star Wars has been around longer, but that is PG and PG13 (Ep. III was PG13.))
I really hope that, someday, they make one, perhaps one called, say, "The Time of Great Growing" (Something we all have been dying and also kinda fearful to see (The fearful part is because of a certain character by the name of Chomper.) ) that could appeal to all of the age groups mentioned above and make a huge sale and send the series off properly.
