Did you realize how Spike's size multiplied in the first few seconds after his birth? I think that at the end of his hatching scene he ended up four or five times (possibly more) the size he must have had the moment of the hatching.
What the hell was up with that?!!! (Yes, as good as the original was, it has it's flaws.) Obviously
something happened in the bushes they didn't want us to see This is such an obvious---yet practically no one seems to notice it.
I noticed that. I guessed they did that since Spike may not have been able to keep up with the large Littlefoot and Cera, and was to big to ride on one of their backs like Ducky and Petrie could do, so they sorta did a poof he's their size.
There's no saying he couldn't, so they didn't need to amp up his size all of a sudden...but there
is a better solution, a really awesome solution, an amazing solution...
Though they should have come up with a better solution. Maybe something like finding him sorta like Ducky found Littlefoot, and they found Petrie.
Yes---if they'd just found him born and their freaking age, not only would that entirely solved this problem, but it really would have made the gang seem more...I don't know, equal!! Which would make every scene between them hereafter---the footprint scene, the group hug, etc. etc. etc., all the more touching!! I always saw Spike as "the big guy" of the gang and not "the big baby"...I tell you, that would have worked so much better, I mean the sequels, nor the rest of the film after Spike is born, give
any indication that Spike is like, 5 years younger then the rest. Who knows what went on in the bushes?
For more discussion on it, see my "Born this way?" topic.
