To answer your first question I can't remember my first reaction to her dying. In fact I don't remember crying at all during that scene. And as for the second question, it should be brought up again in future LBT content absolutely.
I wonder how others see her?The short screen time she had her and natural behaviour leave room for many different interpretations of her character. I found many different versions of her: ( this might a bit long so I'll put behind "spoiler")
1. For many of us seeing Littlefoot's mother meet her end in the first film was a very emotional moment. Do you remember your reaction to witnessing that scene for the first time?There's one problem with that. His mother's treestar was stomped on by Sharptooth in the first movie.
I was traumatized. It made me is a child contemplate losing my own mother. I became empathic with Little Foot’s loss, it felt like I was losing Momma Longneck.
2. With the possible exception of Littlefoot's portion of "Always There" in the fifth film, the passing of Littlefoot's Mother and its effect of Littlefoot were only substantively covered in the first film. Do you think this subject should be brought up again in any future film or television series?
I do believe Little Foot’s Mother and lising her needs to be revisted. The closest we got was Bron saying goodbye to her in LBTX.
A great way would be to establish that Little Foot has a remembrance day and pulls out his Mother’s treestar.
Good point. Pehaps he kept the stick his mother gave him he was chewing on?I'm not sure how he would be able to do that but maybe.
Lol, I still need to post my thoughts in here. I'll try and remember to do that soon.
