I've noticed this ever since I watched LBT XI (the Tinysaur one). The quality of the movies are decreasing. Though the original is undisputedly the best, some of the sequels were not bad. However, in the recent movies, we've had a lack of:

- More interesting/entertaining characters, save Tricia.

- Competent antagonists

- Engaging songs and soundtracks

-Characters seem a little too kiddish and...I don't know...more 5 year old oriented (no offense to 5 year olds at all =P). Though the main personalities are the same throughout, they seem...different in a way I can't describe.

In the sequels 1-9, the sharpteeth seemed dangerous enough, and characters like Ozzy and Pterano provided a different sort of villain.

The tenth movie was somehow different. I approve of it only because of the Saurosuchus, Littlefoot's Dad, new soundtrack, the three-sharpteeth scene, and 'Bestest Friends'.

That all changed with 11. I hated the idea of 'Tinysaurs' straight away. Though TLBT had lots of plot inaccuracies in the past, this was by far the worst. They didn't even exist, and its like the creators just made them up because they ran out of ideas.

12 was OK. Guido was rather imaginative, so was Tricia and her relationship to Cera. IMO, the Mysterious Beyond scene should have been lengthened, with Guido getting lost in the Mysterious Beyond, and Littlefoot and his friends would have to brave dangers to save him. Spinosaurus was a little wimpish but cool just the same. The songs...they disgrace LBT.

Do't even mention the 13th movie! Talk about being unlucky! The idea of 'wisdoms' seemed like the creators were once again running out of plot ideas. The yellow belly guys were not well thought out, and generally, I disliked them. Too 'kiddish' and Barney like. =P The songs were as bad as the ones in the 12th movie, and the sharpteeth were the worst yet.

The TV series was somewhat an improvement. Bringing Chomper to stay at the valley is somewhat unimaginative, like the movie maker wanted a simple reason for him being back. Ruby was well thought out. I don't like the idea of Red Claw that much.

What is your opinion? Are the sequels deproving, better, or staying as they should be?

Though the original is undispuitedly the best, I found the second, fifth and seventh movies interesting =D.

Too lazy to post everything here. Read about updates in th thread above.

This is perfect! I can give a fresh example here. Then again, I don't know if this would be called "teasing" or something a bit more... Ah well, maybe someone could tell me. About ten minutes ago, my mother knew I was writng about LBT and so she had a few things to let me know. Or course, she is almost always angry about something, so this is what I typically go through every day. She just told me a few things about this passion of mine, or perhaps "yelled' is a better word.

A 21 year old writing about little dinosaurs is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. Stop being a little child living in a different world and get a life. No mother could be proud of her son spending his free time working on stuff like that. It doesn't benefit you in any way. Any other parent would have sent you to an asylum by now.

Of course, by this point, I was already walking away. It's no way different than how she always talks to me, so I'm used to it.

So, did I put this in the wrong thread? Would this be teasing or something else? Nobody I have ever met speaks to me about LBT like my mother does. Consider yourself lucky if your friends say things like this. I actually live with me mother. Later.

=O

I admire you for resisting all this and not giving up on LBT entirely. Does this usually happen?

Well, its just a harmless hobby, you don't commit all of your life to LBT (or do you? =P). Honetsly, I think that writing fanfics is a good way to sharpen writing skills. My essays in school have improved (slightly) after I began an obsession with writing Halo, Bionicle (tease me for that if you want, I don't care), and LBT fanfics. A 21 year old like you might think differently though.

Sorry. Double post. Read below.

Where the heck is Saurus rock?
According to the front part of the sixth movie, Saurus rock appeared in the middle of the valley right?

But for some reason, there are Sharpteeth near the rock, which makes no sense as the rock should be in the great valley, unless the sharpteeth found their way in.

Also, in a certain TV episode which shows Chomper and Ruby looking for the Great Valley in a flashback, Chomper says:

"Look! Saurus rock! We must be near the Great Valley!"

Note that he says near, not in.

I don't know if anyone has noticed this before, but ever since LBT XI, Fast Biters (Velociraptors or Deinonychus) have two clawed hands, while they're supposed to have three claws on each hand. Same thing with XII's Spinosaurus.

Speaking of claws, in LBT II, chomper has two fingers, while in V he begins to have three fingers.

I made a banner for this:

Yup.

Here's a question:

Joe saw a box full of gold, silver, diamonds etc. Beside it were some bones. Joe took the bones but did not take the treaures. Why is that?

Chomper's parents or Dina or Dana
