Okay, I think we've gone a bit off topic here. Seeing as how this is suppose to be about LBT 12... I'm sure you know what I'm saying and all.
Anyways, with Land Before Time 12, interesting things I've heard so far from all of you. (I took the time out of my off duty schedule to read all the pages.)
Now, with the surprise Tria has, I'm guessing that Cera's going to be a step-sister. ^_^ I'm just saying that with how Topsy...
*gets charged by Cera.*
Cera: Don't EVER call my dad that!
Okay, Cera. Sorry!
Anyways, I'm just saying that with how Mr. Threehorn acts near her, I wouldn't be surprised if they got into a serious relationship. (Hey! Even Littlefoot was thinking this.)
Oh, and speaking of Littlefoot, I did notice a few pages back of how he should be bigger and all. Well, his Grandpa did say that by Littlefoot's age he had grown. So I'm just guessing that Littlefoot is going through a late growth spurt of some kind.
Of course, The Simpsons have kept the charcters the same age for 16 years and still no one has complained about it. (Heck, enough days within those eps have past by that they should be 5 to 6 years older.) So, as long as they keep bringing a good series to watch, I could care less about them being forever young and all. (Besides, many an idea could be made for fanfics if they keep them young.)
Now, debating on whether or not 12 will be the last one, I'd say there's great chance of it budgetwise. However, if they get a miracle donation of some kind, they just might pull off another one or two. Then again, making a TV series with 26 eps really hurts a budget and all. Heck, considering how much it costs just to make a one and a half hour movie, I can sure see alot of money being put into just the eps themselves. Besides, there's alot to be considered.
First off, to keep the cast working, you have to pay them a respectable amount of money. Add in possible food to feed everyone who works there. (Trust me, with enough people, that's gets quite expensive. Even if you go with the cheapest food around.) Electic bill, film, paper, paint... it all adds up. (Oh yeah, sure. These days you use computers to save on paint and all, but still, it gets expensive.)
Considering everything. I'd say it's going to take a miracle for #13 to come forth.
Still, I wouldn't give up hope. There's always that chance beyond a chance factor. Kids is a VERY big target audience. If they can just get enough... they just might do #13.
