My cable has HBO, but since I'm in Indonesia (HBO Asia; totally different show schedules)... :neutral

I checked the schedule and I think I can safely say that this airing may not include any cut scenes. The time run stated is only an hour and six minutes, which is about the same runtime as my copy of Land Before Time on DVD; in fact it's shorter. The movie on the DVD is an hour and nine minutes, meaning the TV airing will be 3 minutes shorter. A shame really. It would have been nice if HBO was able to air that uncut LBT you had seen before, Pikkutassu.

I think it's because of the fact that when they air movies on TV, they would usually show it at a slightly faster frame rate - usually at 25 frames/second. On DVDs, movies are usually played at 23.976 frames/second. So...

Code:  on  
69 minutes : (25.000 : 23.976 fps) = Approx. 66 minutes [66.17376 minutes]

(or an hour and 6 minutes)

Yep, 3 minutes shorter indeed. I'm such a nerd at these things. :p

Aye, but I think we so far failed to put it up here so really good going to post it here Pikkutassu :yes
The scene is almost certainly the one that was cut right after Spike's hatching.

^ Where'd he find it then?  treestars.net has been offline for years and I've long since lost all my files from the site so I no longer have any images or things used when I made the site.

There was a gallery on this site where I found it http://www.flixster.com/movie/the-land-before-time

I checked that treestars.net deleted scenes page from archive, and saw the speculation about grandpa. I think he was indeed talking at some point in the movie.

There was a short scene right after Littlefoot and Cera got separated and they woke up to the noise wondering where they are, but I'm not sure if it's that, beacause I remember he could be talking to Littlefoot.

It does sound interesting to see an additional scene.

The original tv station finally answered after I sent e-mails to the people in charge. They still have the movie archived, but they don't have the rights to show it since they are only 3-4 years.

But, they are now working on re-buying the rights.  :yes

I'm quite excited about this. Please let us know when you hear anything new about it. With the 3 to 4 years you mean that this was the time-span for which the TV-station had the right to air the movie?

Yes, 3-4 years is the time limit for the airing rights of any foreign content.

Hopefully they can get the rights and can air the film again.   Many fans may be happy to see it again I'm sure.

Yeah..I don't see why they wouldn't get the rights so chances are we'll see it during christmas time probably, that's when they aired the movie in 1995 and 1998.

and here's the press pictures in color:

Forgot how colorful this film can be, though it does look like it needs cleaning, still very watchable.  Hope you get a chance to see it, and record it too if you can.

I checked this site that has cels through archive to reveal what cels they had in the past.

The full size cel wasn't archived, but here's one from a sharptooth scene.


Edit:
Some new production drawings on ebay. This one confirms my memory of a scene before they go swimming in the pond. Most likely cut out because of littlefoot mentioning he found the great valley after they save Cera.
