Unless you have valid, CONFIRMED information regarding the Land Before Time, do not start LBT 14 topics with titles, new characters, or any unofficial garbage like that. This only confuses people.
As of July 5, 2009 we know that the LBT offices in Universal are CLOSED and there is no new LBT material being made or produced at this present time. This means there is no season 2 and no LBT 14.
Do NOT post information from these sites because they are unreliable sources:
- wikipedia
- imdb
- tv.com
- The Land Before Time wiki
Your post will be removed immediately if information is posted from these sites.

RIP Land Before Time. In all honesty though I never thought it would go on for as long as it has - its over 20 years old now.
-
I'm not losin' hope yet. It has not been confirmed that LBT has been discontinued. Universal has simply left its LBT fans in the dark regarding the fate of LBT <_<.
-
Aye, in spite of what I am saying about these rumors I haven't given up all hope for further releases either. My point here is mainly to prevent the spreading of false hopes through obviously untrue rumors. I am not out to take away any hopes that are not based on wishful thinking only.
My most important point however is that even in case there was never to be another official release, LBT has by now become something for me that is not dependent of the official releases anymore. If tomorrow every single movie maker in the world would swear a holy public oath never ever to make anything LBT related again, it would not change my enthusiasm for LBT one bit. I think with the GOF and with our own fanworks of all kinds we have built up something that is not based on so weak a foundation that the decisions in some moviemakers office could break it.

I'm not trying to promote that...I'm merely saying that the GOF needs to hold itself higher than the rumor mill known as wikipedia and give accurate information to visitors.
-
You should probably add the Land Before Time Wiki to that list, Petrie. We delete it when it comes up, but there've already been people here who cited our vandalism as a source for LBT 14.
-
I hope for More Releases especially for the Series
-
I'm guessing this probably includes the rumors of a fifteenth movie as well. Darn it..."Quest of the Longneck Princess" on the LBT Wiki sounded interesting to me.
-
I think the closing of the studios which produced LBT now allows the fans to finally have a say in what they think the story should entitle. I'm not saying officially, but they get the chance to experiment with their own creativity and imaginations as to what the characters should go through, which is evident through all the fanfics we see today.

:yes They thought of that title too for LBT 14. We doubt it's real.
-
Plus I don't think the characters would even know what a princess is in terms. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the movies have ever used King or Queen in them, so I doubt princess would make any sense. Then again, if it were real, it could have implied the return of Ali, which would have been helpful because her appearance in the TV series was just plain wrong.
Oh well. Could be a nice plot for a fanfic.
-
So this is a fake, isn't it?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_Before_Time_XIV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_Before_Time_XIV)
"The Land Before Time XIV is a 2010 animated upcoming film. It stars Jordan Nagai, Chlo” Moretz, Madison Pettis, Frank Welker, Jim Cummings, Grey DeLisle and Zachary Gordon."
Plot: TBA
-
Yes that is very likely fake.
-
I don't like ruby.
Me neither.. doesn't fit to the gang. Just a bad idea from that new female director.
-
^ Weren't the TV episodes done by Charles Grosvenor as well?
Personally I didn't find the TV series as bad as many seem to. The stories were shorter of course, but I prefered that over stories of lacking content being drawn out artificially in order to stretch it to a sequel's length as has been the case with some of the later sequels. I had very low expectations to the TV series, but still these were surpassed. By most of the episodes I have seen so far. As for Ruby I really think she did fill up some of the gaps not covered by any of the existing characters' personalities but she is lacking a background story so far.
-
I wish I could say this is for real. In the past, anything on Wikipedia regarding a new LBT sequel was in red with a message claiming it could not be verified, or somethin' along those lines, but this looks plausible, I guess :unsure:. To be safe, I'll wait until we know for sure ;). I really hope it's for real :).
-
I checked pages of the different actors named in that Wikipedia article. Not one of those includes any mention of a future LBT movie in the actor's bio (while on an earlier occasion a mention in an actor's bio was the first "official" hint to a future LBT movie we got).
I doubt though that there would be really such an all round change of voice actors to begin with. They did have to save money on voice actors in LBT 13 (that's why Littlefoot's grandma but not Littlefoot's grandpa had a speaking role in that one), but some of the actors mentioned in that article may well be more expensive than the actors who have done the voices of the characters so far.
I have no idea on which basis someone picks actors for a fake article on an alleged LBT sequel, but chances for this one to hold any substance are regretably about 0.
-
Actually, Frank Welker and Jim Cummings would be considered returning cast members. Frank Welker voiced the Spinosaurus in LBT XII, and Jim Cummings voiced Sierra in LBT VII. As for the new cast, I came up with a possible explanation today :idea. The Gang are most likely aound ten to twelve years of age, right? After recently reading a post on the GOF regarding Aria Curzon's voice deepening throughout the series due to puberty, I think I figured it out: the voice cast is aging :neutral. The voice never stops aging as long as the body continues to age, and the cast of twenty and thirty-somethings that have portrayed the Gang for the last decade are losing their abilities to continue to sound childlike as time passes :yes. I've even noticed over the years that Cera's voice sounds like it has aged :confused. So, why not bring in some new actors who really are ten to twelve years of age and keep the Gang sounding like ten to twelve years of age? That would be the wise thing for Universal to do, rather than havin' folks aged twenty and over try to portray ten to twelve year-olds :yes. That'd be like those "teen" movies in which actors who are twenty-five and older play high school-aged folks :rolleyes: :crazy.
-
I'm highly doubtful that this is real but I don't know, this time it just seems different. In the past these fake LBT 14 pages always had some title like "the great meteor" or some horrible joke like that. This time though no title is mentioned at all, in fact there is nothing there to suggest this was but up by an LBT hater. Plus add the fact that some voice actors were put up, thats something that would require a little research and just doesn't make sense to do if the person wasn't serious. Add the fact that control of NBC Universal is shifting from GE to Comcast and I get a funny feeling about this one, its just too different from the past fake announcements. We'll see, odds are its wrong anyway.
-
My instinct tells me this time is different, but we'll see :yes.
-
Okay this just got a little more interesting. Every listed actor/actress now has some mention LBT 14 on their wikipedia pages. If this is yet another joke then the prankster is getting more elaborate then any other in the past. Still nothing to be truly excited about though (I say as my heart beats a mile a minute at the possibility) as I cannot find any connection between these actors and an LBT 14 anywhere outside of wikipedia.
-
We'll just have to keep our eyes open for sources cited as time goes by :p. I remember this happening with LBT XIII as well. I dunno if it's just my imagination, but how is it that Wikipedia seems to get such information before any sources can be found online :huh:? My only suspicion at this time is that a Universal employee posted it :p.
-
If this is a prank, then it's been done rather well. Seriously, based on the fact that the chosen voice actors have the information on their bios, it is quite well done. Seriously, you put it up on Wikipedia, who's going to believe it? :P:
However, on the off chance that it's not...
:celebrate Hurray!! New Movie!! :)
Seriously though, I'm not hoping for much with this. -_-
-
I did a little digging and I found a couple interesting things. I'm tired though so I'll share my findings tomorrow, night GOFers!
-
It could be an elaborate prank...
-
I'm pretty sure that is fake. Firstly it involves real life religions. Secondly and so on are the reasons in the previous posts.
-
While I am not saying that it could never happen I am extremely doubtful about this one. When I wrote that there is nothing on the actors' pages on the movie I meant pages other than wikipedia (where indeed there were such entries yesterday as well). I do not know what makes people pull of such elaborate pranks, but it does happen.
I'm not out to take away any hope but unless there is something more reliable than Wikipedia or certain other unofficial pages to base the hope on I reckon it is too early to put up any celebrating smilies.

True I guess its fun. I played a really big prank on a web and got banned but it was fun.

If it just appeared then it's way too good timing to not be a prank.
-
I'd recommend remaining skeptical on anything other than an official word from the studio themselves.
There is no point in keeping a 14th movie under wraps. If they were making it, they would officially announce it with a proper website, or at least a statement of some sort.
-
Best to remain skeptical indeed till one has official word.
-
If this were to be a prank, it would have worked out much better as an April Fool's joke or something.
I wouldn't say it's too much research just to pull off a prank. If you remember a couple years ago, IGN hired a bunch of unknown actors and produced a trailer for a Legend of Zelda movie. There had always been speculation that a movie would be released, so when the trailer came out everybody assumed it was real. Unfortunately, it was released on April 1st, so the next day it was announced on IGN's website that the trailer was a prank.
So I wouldn't assume that this is too small or too good timing to be a prank because with a little research anybody can really fool people with a good prank.
Here's a link to the Zelda prank trailer so you have an idea what I mean:

I went searching through the edit histories of the LBT 14 page and of the actors/actress selected and I found some odd things, although still no evidence to make me realistically consider this authentic.
The page was originally created by a wikipedia user named Scratte2, who according to wikipedia doesn't actually exist (I'm not quite sure what to make of that, considering he does have an edit history). I looked through a few other edits to other pages this user has done and what I found has been the largest piece of evidence against this claim of a new movie. The user has done a few very small edits on other pages, all edits of which were quickly removed by other users, suggesting that this user isn't very reliable. The LBT 14 page its self has had two other users edit it. One put up some obviously fake plot story about Jesus coming down and telling everybody their going to be extinct, blah blah blah. The final editor removed the fake Jesus story. No one else has touched the page.
As for the actors/actress as of last night every one of them has a reference to their supposed part in LBT 14 except for Jim Cummings (Supposedly voicing Petrie). Jordan Nagai (Littlefoot) had LBT 14 added to his page yesterday by the user Gran2. From what I can tell Gran2 does not seem like someone who spends his time playing jokes, he is a very active member and a large player in the Simpsons wiki. For the other actors I found something VERY bizarre. Their pages were all altered by a single person (I'll refer to him/her as 67 since thats the first two digits of his IP address). Now the weird part of this is that 67 altered them on November 15th while the LBT 14 page wasn't created until November 28th.
I still don't have a reason to believe this claim but if it is a hoax, it is a rather strange one. I'm still not quite sure what to make of it, but don't get you're hopes up, there is still no reason to believe in this.
-
If the article is legit (Man I gotta stop using words from school.) than we will go from there. Personally I've been watching the LBT article for a while on Wikipedia while also checking several other articles in the process and I have stumbled upon several fake titles for the LBT that started to make me think and open my eyes. The person or persons doing this are really desperate! I mean someone went as far as stating Sharptooth Valley was actually going to be a real spin off the LBT films and would appear on SciFi. Yes I was laughing at the person who put Sharptooth Valley as an actual film and I think the person that did it may have been reading Sharptooth Valley a lot! Doesn't surprise me one bit. Ain't going to work however cause when I'm around and I'm on Wikipedia the King makes changes(Most of the time). :lol

If this were to be a prank, it would have worked out much better as an April Fool's joke or something.
Just for the record, while the admins of this board are notorious for their April fool pranks you can rest assured that there won't be any from us that would promote the spread of rumors or the raising of falls hopes.
I really don't see anything about this whole thing to suggest it to be anything more than a false rumor. By the way there had been false rumors on LBT actors before. On one occasion there was a false claim according to which Dakota Fanning was to take over the role of Ducky. There never was any reasonable connection and not the slightest bit of truth about it but the rumor was posted anyway
So lets stick to legit facts.
PS: Thank you for teaching me a new word Jasper :lol

Ever think of the possibility that a Universal employee could have a Wikipedia account and has posted this information :huh:? Perhaps his/her boss at Universal has no idea this information is out there yet, and this said employee would not want to get into hot water for leaking too much information. Aren't the employees normally required to keep these projects a secret until they're permitted by the company to be announced? If my theory is correct, then this is the result of an employee leaking some information.
On the subject of there bein' no sub-title, I recall this happenin' on Wikipedia with LBT XII AND LBT XIII. Sub-titles were not revealed until later on. I dunno. These are just thoughts of mine :rolleyes.

What I mean is if the whole LBT 14 movie was a prank, an April Fools joke would have been perfect. I understand nobody here would intentionally spread false rumors. I just know that this would be a perfect April Fools joke, and now I'm getting repetitive :lol
-
Although I half-expected it to be a prank, my wishful thinking got the best of me once more :bang. The page for LBT XIV is not up anymore :neutral. I really can't stand these pranks! If I knew who did this in person, I'd love to knock him/her into the next galaxy <_<!
-
Eh, its as I really expected. Still though this hoax was different, more thought out, and with some crude meteor joke I'm not seeing why anyone would take the time. I guess LBT hatred is stronger then I thought.
-
Well who is to blame for it?
-
Would you feel better about blaming someone in particular?
Personally I really don't care about who the people are who spread rumors unless the awareness could in any way help to prevent any kind of damage.

That was not really what I meant. But we all know that if Charles was more careful and planned like he should have, LBT may yet continue. In other words Charles was the man in command he had to make the decisions but he made the wrong choices.
-
It's just a way to take advantage of hyped-up fans, like spreading false rumors about a new Star Wars movie. It doesn't really do any damage, it's just a joke. I think we're coming down on this a bit too seriously.
-
Well there is a huge amount of people in the world who do not want to see LBT continue because they recognize the quality of the movies has decreased after the first movie. I guess some random person thought it would be funny to stir up rumors about a new movie to get those who enjoy LBT still. I just don't get why people waste their time and ours making up things like this.
-
Because some people are just that bored. I've been there before, and when you're at that point in life, you really feel like doing stuff like that. I think most people think it's pretty ridiculous that LBT had 12 sequels and a TV show, and they want to make a little joke about it.
-
i think they are going to make another LBT this year (this is just my reasoning) because i was looking when some of the movies came out and LBT X was made in 03 or 02 and then the next one was not made until 05 and so that is a good 3 years so 3 years since the last one was made is 2010 so maybe they will make one this year
-
I pray this is the case Duckyfan, but who knows :unsure:.
-
I wish I could say something more optimistic Duckyfan, but we do have occasional contact to some who are involved with the production of LBT (most notably Arie Noelle Curzon, the voice actor who speaks Ducky). The problem is that the office in charge of the production of the LBT movies has been closed down and for all we know there are no plans as of now to apen it again :cry
-
Yes, we all hope that there will be a new movie coming out, but in the meantime, let's keep ourselves entertained with fanfiction. Shall we?
Also, I really don't think that LBT will just die out. Some of the sequels, including 13, received quite high ratings on amazon.com and other websites. Maybe because the economy became bad, Universal Studios temporarily stopped production. Once the economy recovers, they might restart the series again.
-
Sadly, we have every reason to believe that the series has ended for good, and that neither the movies nor the TV show will ever be returning. I would be interested to see any credible information that states otherwise.

The Land Before Time XIV and The Land Before Time XV have been officially announced on this website: http://www.episodeguides.com/scripts/getsh...&p=index&m=html (http://www.episodeguides.com/scripts/getshow.php?s=land_before_time&p=index&m=html).

The Growing Sky Stone is a common hoax title for LBT 14. Also, I really doubt LBT 14 will be made.
-
They also have a "Return of the Egg Stealers" TV episode listed.
Pfff :lol ! How very "original".
-
"The Growing Sky Stone"? lol.
FailBlog, anyone? :p
-
It's still dead. I think this is one of those things that will not likely be revived.
-
"The Growing Sky Stone"? lol.
FailBlog, anyone? :p
Yeah well if it's not a reliable source then why have two wikipedias accepted it as a reference for The Land Before Time XIV and The Land Before Time XV? Wikipedia (http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_(series)) and Land Before Time (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_The_Land_Before_Time_movies)
-
Anyone can post on Wikipedia. Without a reliable outside source that links from Wikipedia, one cannot trust the information one gets from it. I could post the land before time XVI on Wikipedia if I wanted to, even if no such film exists.
-
"The Growing Sky Stone"? lol.
FailBlog, anyone? :p

Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, actually. Anyone can go in and add in anything they want to. That's why Wikipedia is not the best source for information. If I were to go in and edit the LBT wiki page to include a live action movie about the characters meeting humans, it would still go through because anyone can edit a page on Wikipedia, but just because I edit the wiki page to include that information doesn't mean that it's true. Obviously there is no LBT movie coming out like that.
-
^
I think we just said the same thing. :lol
Seriously, Wikipedia is not a reliable source for this, especially when people can post not only false information on it, but wishful information, or some rumor they heard.
-
Yeah, we did. I posted this before I even saw your post.
-
Yeah. We all wish there would be a new movie, if only to wrap things up, or to explain some things about Ruby and Chomper, not to mention Red Claw. Still, it is unlikely to occur. We can hope, but until there is an official release of information by Universal, we are grasping at straws.
-
Someone at The Land Before Time Wiki (http://www.landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_The_Land_Before_Time_movies) has put created a page for The Land Before Time XV (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_XV:_The_Quest_of_Mystery) and added XVI to the list of movies, I put a citation needed. They have put several new characters for XV in the list, including someone called Red Scar. They also have a rumored cast for the movie:
Littlefoot- Scott McAfee
Cera- Kally Partson
Ducky- Aria Noelle Curzon
Petrie- Rob Paulsen
Ruby - Meghan Strange
Spike- Rob Paulsen
Red Scar- (New Character)- Played By Michael Cole
Grandma Longneck - Miriam Flynn
Grandpa Longneck - Kenneth Mars
Fast Biters - Frank Welker
Sue - Hally Dean
Doc - Kris Kristofferson
I put on the the talk page whether it should be moved to the OC section or deleted.
-
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I have seen this kind of joke on Wikipedia before. The prankster just happens to be more convincing than the others, but it's still a joke. Don't believe anything LBT-related on Wikipedia. Only if and when Universal announces anything about future LBT projects should we believe anything about future LBT projects.
Sorry 'bout that. I'd really love to see the series continue myself, but Wikipedia will only give ya false hope. Only believe Universal's announcements.
-
Someone at The Land Before Time Wiki (http://www.landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_The_Land_Before_Time_movies) has put created a page for The Land Before Time XV (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_XV:_The_Quest_of_Mystery) and added XVI to the list of movies, I put a citation needed.
The sequel is a lie. (lol, Portal reference) :p
-
There's one main problem with that cast list, which I'm sorry I have to agree but the movie is fake. Scott McAfee did Littlefoot for LBT II - IV. By now, his voice has most likely changed a lot, so he would not be able to do Littlefoot again.
Notice that the description for LBT The Glowing Sky Stone is that it is "supposed" to come out in 2010. Well we are getting towards the halfway mark of 2010, and nothing new has come. So unless we get hard proof from maybe a cast member, I can honestly say this is just another prank or rumor.
-
Two discrepencies I noticed:
*Why is there no info for LBT XIV but info for LBT XV has been posted? Hmm...I smell a prankster <_<.
*Cast members do not typically write the scripts for film...screenwriters do. Durrrrr... :slap.
-
I don't know about you, but I think the name "Growing Sky Stone" is an immediate sign that it's a big fake. That prank name has been around for so many years, it's not amusing at all anymore. I can't think of a real world analogy, but let's just say that it's a name that, as soon as you see it, you KNOW it's a fake.
-
*Why is there no info for LBT XIV but info for LBT XV has been posted?
Because The Land Before Time XIV (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_XIV) page has been deleted too many times to be recreated on LBT Wiki.
-
The Land Before Time XIV: The Growing Sky Stone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_XIV:_The_Growing_Sky_Stone) and The Land Before Time XV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_XV) have redirects to The Land Before Time (series) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_(series)) at Wikipedia.
-
All of these are fakes.
If ever we get any information from an official page, that would be a topic for this thread, but the random rumors and hoaxes from pages where everyone can write anything are not.
-
ScratteLover2, you seem to be in denial. Why can't you just accept the fact that there won't be any LBT 14? All of these links that you're posting, as others have already said, are FAKE. Look, I'm sorry, but unless we get any official announcement from Universal themselves, there will be no such thing as a 14th LBT movie.
-
Some one created a page called "The Land Before Time XV: The Quest of Mystery." Do you think this is official or just a fanfiction, I don't know what to think. The link is The Land Before Time XV: The Quest of Mystery (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_XV:_The_Quest_of_Mystery). I not the one who created the page, I only created The Land Before Time XIV one, not The Land Before Time XV. The person who created the page was: 66.69.12.115, an unregisted contributor.
-
It's just fanfiction. Not to mention The Quest of Mystery is a very uncreative title.
Until we hear from Universal, there isn't going to be an LBT 14.

How do you know it's a fanfiction? Are you the one who wrote it?
-
Uhh no I'm not. I know this because no one has heard any official word from Universal. Until Universal says "Yes, we are doing a Land Before Time 14", it's just pointless speculation.
-
Again, like many other fans, it would be a dream come true for me if LBT does indeed continue AND future projects are much better quality than LBT XIII. However, until Universal does give official word, nobody should believe anything they find online.
-
Not to mention that the LBT Wiki and Wikipedia aren't exactly the most reliable of sources. For example, someone could post that Universal is going to do a live action Land Before Time, that doesn't exactly mean that they will.
-
If there is something on a page which is linked to universals and where not everybody can post whatever they want then this might be something promising. This however are just a fans fantasies.
-
You may not remember, but I was the first one stating that Universal had decided to stop doing anymore Land Before Time... (and no one believed me then)
Well actually they completly closed down their animation studios in october 2009. So yes, don't believe anything regarding sequels : they're not producing anymore animated films (or series)
Read this :
http://animationguildblog.blogspot.com/200...nd-of-days.html (http://animationguildblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/end-of-days.html)
Sorry to disappoint you. Even though the DTV sequels (in general) were not very good quality, they were still the last way to see traditional animation...So I'm sad to see it ends. At some point I was hoping Universal wouldn't abandon Balto entirely, but now I have moved on to other things - there are others good animated films and series.
Hey, do some of you know Talespin? Check my fansite dedicated to the Disney TV series : http://www.animationsource.org/talespin/en/ (http://www.animationsource.org/talespin/en/)

At some point I was hoping Universal wouldn't abandon Balto entirely, but now I have moved on to other things - there are others good animated films and series.
Hey, do some of you know Talespin? Check my fansite dedicated to the Disney TV series : http://www.animationsource.org/talespin/en/ (http://www.animationsource.org/talespin/en/)
Don't you remember what DarkHououmon said, don't trust wikipedia, imdb or blogs for announcements of any kind, I understand the wikipedia and blog part, but I do believe the imdb part, as most movies I seen the cast is first announced there, rarely in wikipedia or blogs. Also, why do people always add fanfictions on Land Before Time wiki? They've done that with LBTXIV and LBTXV, remember The Land Before Time XV: The Quest of Mystery, now someone posted The Land Before Time XIV: The Final Face-Off. I really hate it when unregistered contributors add new the land before time fanfictions on there. An easier way to tell the difference would be the exclude the XIV or XV. Pages with the numbers would be a movie, and pages without the number or with Land Before Time Wiki/OC infront of it means fanfiction or fan character. My The Land Before Time XIV: The Growing Sky Stone Page, can be trusted it's all information I found on trustworthy sites, which I lost a long time ago when my computer was gutted, that's why I kept putting The Land Before Time XIV: The Growing Sky Stone here, and no the reliable site wasn't a blog either, not this time, not wikias or wikipedia either, it wasn't TV.com or imdb.com either, but here is everything that I found at those sites.
The Land Before Time XIV: The Growing Sky Stone is a upcoming film. It has been recently announced. It is rumored to star Jordan Nagai, Chloe Moretz, Madison Pettis, Jim Cummings, Grey DeLisle, Zachary Gordon and Frank Welker.

I personally don't know what to believe when it comes to all of this. I'll give everyone an answer when I'm ready.
-
ScratteLover, I hate to burst your bubble, but that you information you have is actually from a former Wikipedia page. A while ago, somebody posted a page with that EXACT cast with the same EXACT title for the fourteenth movie. After a week, it was taken down. This page was also on IMDB, but it too was taken down. The sites you got this information from were probably either sponsered by Wikipedia or also got the information from Wikipedia.
As much as we would like for their to be a new movie, as of now there will be none, and ANY and ALL pages showing information without OFFICIAL acknowledgement from Universal, even for rumors, are simply fake and non-credible.
-
Alas, repeating a rumor doesn't make it any more true.
-
Then again, this is not entirely ScratteLover's fault. A lot of fan created sites tend to take information from Wikipedia and twist it around so that it looks like they have credible information. Then again, most of these websites also reference Wikipedia in very small font.
-

That is true. That decision I stated in a earlier post. I've decided to believe that until I see some type of proof from Universal I will continue to disregard info on Wikipedia, IMDB, and any other sites I can think of.

Even though it's technically not my fault, I'm still sorry if I made anyone mad in this section or The Land Before Time remake section.
-
I don't think you made anyone mad. Don't feel bad about it.
-
We aren't mad at you ScratteLover ;)
We just know that there is nothing new at the moment coming out, and it becomes a minor inconvenience when the board has multiple topics about the subject.
But there is no harm intended so don't worry about it.
-
What? Did anyone actually took the time to read the blog I refered to?
Because this is a blog maintained by people WORKING in the animation industry. ALL the information there are true, because they have contracts with the animation companies. This is the Animation Guild. They often make announces for things that companies didn't make official, and they always come true. (logical, considering it comes from the inside)
Really, read the blog and you'll understand. Another post example :
http://animationguildblog.blogspot.com/201...e-division.html (http://animationguildblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/at-mouse-house-feature-division.html)
So yes, this is 100% valid information. Universal will not make any announcement, the studio has already been closed. What more proof do you want?
I know that it's not what you would have liked, it's not to me either and I really hate what the industry is leading to - but at one point, you need to accept it.
-
I wasn't referring to the site you mentioned steetboris. I'm just pointing out that there are websites out there that try to fake having information by taking stuff from places like Wikipedia, which can be edited by anybody. I recognize the credibility of the blog you referred to, but I'm merely emphasizing that unless an official seal or notice is made by Universal, or some other professional group, there will not be anymore LBT movies in the future.
-
Is that also the problem with IMDB? How come it's not reliable?
-
Because like Wikipedia, anyone can edit IMDB. Not to the same extent as Wiki of course but you can still add stuff to the database(Movie quotes, goofs, trivia, etc.). One example I can think of as to why IMDB isn't all that reliable is that according to them, a Dragonball Evolution sequel is scheduled to come out in 2011. Now there's more speaking against this rumor than there is speaking for it: the movie tanked at the box office, it garnered mostly negative reception, lost Fox a whole lot of money, and is universally hated by fans of the original Dragon Ball franchise, myself included. Do you really think a company would do a sequel to a movie that performed horribly at the box office and risk losing even more money?
I'd like a Land Before Time 14 just as badly as anyone else here but right now, it looks as though we won't be getting a 14th movie. I knew the series would end eventually...I just wish it hadn't ended like this.
-
I just wish it hadn't ended like this.
Considering how Universal has ditched An American Tail and Balto, I'm not surprised at all.
Money, money, money...
They think only the little kids are interested in animated films, so why bother doing press releases to announce anything like that?
-
"Quest of the Longneck Princess" on the LBT Wiki sounded interesting to me.
I'm the one that put that on there, but I wasn't the one that came up with that rumor. Who came up with it I have no idea, but I only put it there, but of course, WilhelminaWill blocked me, and that was my FIRST edit there!
-
Oh well. Could be a nice plot for a fanfic.
Well, actually I am planning on making a fanfiction of the XV since you said that, but I don't know when exactly it will show up on fanfiction.net. But when I start writing it, it will show up on DeviantArt first, so keep look for it then.
In the fanfiction section of these site, I'll create the post for it.
But here's my description of the story:
This is a fanfiction that I am going to write based off of the rumors of the fifteenth land before time movie, entitled "The Land Before Time XV: The Quest of the Longneck Princess." It will be written in a script format, and it will be about five, maybe six chapters long depending on how I feel when I decide to start writing it.
-
If I knew who did this in person, I'd love to knock him/her into the next galaxy <_<!
Really, well the person your talking about just quoted you.
-
Considering how Universal has ditched An American Tail and Balto
I can name tons of movies that the've ditched, well actually only one, cause every here has mentioned the others I was going to say,
The Pebble and the Penguin (I was hoping there would be a second or it would atleast do on like LBT did)
-
Pebble and the Penguin wasn't really that well received and, from what I understand, likely did not make enough money to warrant a sequel.
-
Yeah, the only three well received franchises that Don Bluth started were LBT, American Tail, and Balto. Pebble and the Penguin wasn't really well received. It was along the lines of Rock a Doodle for being not up to par with Bluth's previous masterpieces.
-

Don's earlier works (The Land Before Time, All Dogs Go To Heaven, The Secret of NIMH, and An American Tale) were his best works in my opinion. His later works just can't really compete with them. Oh and by the way, Don Bluth had no involvement in Balto from what I recall. That movie was directed by Simon Wells.
-
I agree. His later works were mostly B-movies with no budget. Maybe they were good under the circumstances, but not very good overall.
-
Didn't Anastasia receive decent reviews? And Titian A.E was a pretty good movie.
-
Those were the only good later ones, although Titan A.E. was a bomb.

You have no idea how many idiots like to post up random crap; I'm afraid to say its got to the point where an instant ban is the only thing we can be bothered to do; trying to find out if it was a genuine mistake or not is in 999 cases out of 1000 completely pointless. The Land Before Time XV: The Quest of Mystery page definitely needs to be incinerated though...*delete*.
EDIT: Why is there all this "Growing Sky Stone" nonsense all over the Internet? I'm going to go hunting for it on the wiki...
-
The Glowing Sky Stone is a hoak title fot the 14th movie. It's already been proven false, so I wouldn't waste your time looking for anything about it.
-

When was it proven false?
-
You do know that "growing sky stone" refers to an asteroid, right?
-
You do know that "growing sky stone" refers to an asteroid, right?
I know, but when was it confirmed or not?
-
Scrattelover. As long as it is not confirmed by Universal studios, it is confirmed that it is a fake :)
-
You do know that "growing sky stone" refers to an asteroid, right?
I know, but when was it confirmed or not?
Oh, God...
Asteroid! As in the one that supposedly wiped out the dinosaurs?! They're saying that this "movie" would be about the asteroid killing Littlefoot and everyone else! Now tell me, you think Universal would make a kid's movie like that, where the plot is about the characters' inevitable deaths?
Action9000 is absolutely right. I can't believe we're going through this again! If there's no news from Universal, it's fake, just like action said. Don't believe everything you hear just because Wiki says it's "true".
-
When was it proven false?
When has there been a single plausible reason (some random person having come up with such a title in a forum years ago and some other random people repeating it ever since is not a plausible reason) to even vaguely suggest it to be true? It was first mentioned in a forum many years ago (as early as 2004 I think. This alone apart from countless other points goes to show it is nonsense.
There has been discussion on whether to close threads if they are only used to spread baseless rumors. We don't want to censor and therefore decided against it, but seriously, unless there is anything substantial about a claim it is not to be seen as anything but a false rumor.
-
On top of this, the title COMPLETELY goes against what was said at the end of the first movie. The narrator said, and I quote,
And they all grew up together in the valley. Generation upon generation. Each passing on to the next, the tale of their ancestors journey to the valley. Long ago!
Basically speaking, the tale of The Land Before Time takes place WELL before the end of the dinosaurs. On top of this, the gang have several generations of kids that also grow up in the valley. (And we all have speculations of who the lucky mates are.)
This is THE piece of evidence to PROVE that "The Growing Sky Stone" is false.
-
The Glowing Sky Stone is a hoak title fot the 14th movie. It's already been proven false, so I wouldn't waste your time looking for anything about it.
By "hunt" I don't mean "look". I mean coming at it out of the sun with my trigger-finger itching on the delete button.

Because the blog was entitled "The Land Before Time XIV: The Growing Sky Stone" and gave the impression that it was a film definitely going to be made at some point.
-
Clawandfang, why did you delete the page The Land Before Time XIV blog page from the LBT wiki? I created that to see what people would want in LBT 14, not what is going to be in it, jeez! I say you should recrate it, then semi-protect it permantly, and revert it by to my last edit cause someon edited my section!
Because the blog was entitled "The Land Before Time XIV: The Growing Sky Stone" and gave the impression that it was a film definitely going to be made at some point.
This issue is being handled by the staff. Please leave this topic to rest.
-
I Believe that Clawandfang is making a good point about the LBT 14 being made and I quite agree with him.
I Just hope that'll be made and released someday. I wish the Staff :goodluck on the Land Before Time XIV movie.
-
I'm pretty sure we would have heard about either the Universal Animation Studios being reopened, or the rights to LBT being sold to some other company before there was any work done on a LBT movie.
So basically, we have heard of neither as of yet, so NO work has been done on the next movie at all, because there is no one to work on it.
-
Those were the only good later ones, although Titan A.E. was a bomb.
Yeah, basic lineup for his movies as percieved by audiences and reviewers (in chronological order). Oh, and the fact that the views of the critics and general audience is pretty much the same as mine is pure coincidence:
NIMH: Explosion onto the scene, Bluth's greatest work ever.
American Tail: Once again, brilliant, highest grossing animation of its time.
Land Before Time: New highest grossing animation of its time, but with less spectacular reviews (more politely positive than fanatical praise like the previous films). Generally seen as a great film by audiences.
All Dogs Go To Heaven: Dark and intense, but maybe a bit too much so.
Rock a Doodle: Strange, confusing and pointless.
Thumbelina: Cheap Disney Princess knockoff.
Troll In Central Park: Awful, almost like it was a parody of a children's film. Kinda wish it was.
Pebble and the Penguin: Best out of Bluth's bad movies, but still pretty rotten. But at least it had Tim Curry (which is always a good thing for me)
Anastasia: Could be seen as Disney knockoff, but at least it was done with obvious effort, and altogether pretty well recieved, especialy in Russia.
Titan AE: Well recieved, but marketing couldn't seem to decide to portray it as a sci-fi or a kid's film. Unfortunately a commercial flop due to poor marketing.
Now, forgive me, and back on topic...

Vonboy, saying that you would have heard about either the Universal Animation Studios being reopened, or the rights to LBT being sold to some other company before there was any work done on a LBT movie. When would you hear that? Honestly?
I'm not trying to be mean I'm just trying to be honest with you, plus I got your point about either the Universal Animation Studios Being reopened or the rights for the LBT being sold to another company.
I just still hope that It'll be sold to a movie company or the studios reopens. do you have the same hope as I do?
-
the Universal Animation Studios being reopened, or the rights to LBT being sold to some other company

Neither of those will happen. Universal owns Land Before Time, they won't sell it to another company. If they want to end the series, they're gonna keep it that way.
-
Adder, I understand. We (meaning other members and me) shall be allowed to believe what we want to believe. I Love the Land Before Time a lot even as a young boy with autism. I Still will not give up hope even some members too.
Littlefoot however, I see his character on me. I just think he has autsim just like me.
I agree with some of the methods and some methods I don't agree. I will still allow others to believe what they want to believe. Like you told me Most all Blogs are not true? but we can still believe what we want to believe. it's just part of human nature we have thoughts and feelings.
I've been reading all of the messages about this topic on this thread by different people, and members.
Vonboy for example, He has his own points, opinions, thoughts and hopes. I agree with some his methods.
:angel Now, I'm still not saying that you are wrong all that I'm saying is let's just believe what we all want to believe and not worry about it cause all we can do now is hope. no matter if we are right or wrong. or the blogs are both right and wrong too. :angel
Sometimes Giving Up produces no good.
:confused Do you except and understand for what I say to you? Honestly
-
I just think he has autsim just like me.
Littlefoot doesn't have autism, don't even start on that subject. <_<
Like you told me Most all Blogs are not true?
Most of us know that won't happen. Exactly, I said most, I didn't say all, now did I? That one I linked to is one of those few that is a true blog.
I will still allow others to believe what they want to believe. but we can still believe what we want to believe.
You've said that three times already. You don't have to say it all the time, I'm sick of hearing it. I've let The Land Before Time go, and honestly, if a Land Before Time XIV is made, I won't be excited about it. My current interest is Watership Down, not The Land Before Time. I'd watch it, but only once.
or the blogs are both right and wrong too. :angel
Nothing can be write and wrong. It is either right or wrong.
:confused Do you except and understand for what I say to you?
No, I'm sick and tired of hearing about The Land Before Time XIV happening or not happening. Your the only person on this forum that cannot drop it.
Right about now I wish this topic would be locked so no one can post in it anymore.
-
Alright Adder, I'm sorry that your sick and tired about the LBT XIV happening and not happening. I'm just trying to tell you what Vonboy has told me. Now I will stop bringing up this topic. But I'm pretty sure other members might bring it up. cause I'm not the only one.
Anyway I'll keep my hopes and thoughts to my self.
Here is a deal as friend and a member - If you hear anything from Universal Animation studios being reopened (which you say you doubt will happen) you let me and other members know. cause I will be off this topic for three months to think, do my hobbies, my work ect. After the 3rd month ends I'll be back how about that? deal?
-
I already saw what he said. Other members only brought it up before because you did. If you had left it alone before, it wouldn't have been brought up now.
I don't know how to contact Universal, so how would I hear anything from them? :blink:
How about you forget this topic completely. No offense, but this topic has been adding more stress to my life than I've had at school, so just stop posting in this topic completely. The same goes for the other forum, don't mention it there either. Besides, even if I did hear anything about Land Before Time XIV, I wouldn't post it because it will just be false rumors.
There is other non-land before time related sections to post in. I rarely even view anything in the land before time sections anymore.
-
:angel Forgive me for putting So much stress on you :cry
I Have a lot a stress the same as you do. I'm just disappointed in the movie company and I have a lot of stories to write, Illustrations to work on and my Artshow in Fulton Missouri is being prepared to be open on April 16th 2011 and if your interested in coming to my Artshow you and your family are invited to come. I Made an invetation and I'm making 50 copies. Are you interested in coming to my artshow if you are let me now what your parents say?
-
I don't live anywhere near Missouri, so no. My parents wouldn't approve anyway. Just don't post in this topic anymore after this. Leave it to rest.
-
I won't be posting in this thread anymore.
But yes, I do still have a little bit of hope.
-
I won't be posting in this thread anymore.
But yes, I do still have a little bit of hope.
I won't be posting this topic and I'll be doing the same thing as Vonboy did but I am glad that Vonboy will not give up hope on the Land Before Time and for the company to reopen or for the LBT be sold to another company.
-
I'll be doing the same thing vonboy's doing. I probably won't be posting here again, but I do have a bit of hope that it might happen.
-
I'm pleased of both of you, Vonboy and LBTDiclonius, that you will never give up hope just like I am doing now.
Now let's just keep this hope to ourselves and not bother anyone. Plus, my friends now while we hope we must wait.
-
I said this once and I'll say it again, forget any chances of this movie or the studio opening again. I am not in the mood for this crap after what I found out yesterday...
-
My only curiosity about this is... which studio closed down?
-
The Universal Animation Studios, so Universal isn't working on ANYTHING animation related anymore, including LBT and Curious George.
EDIT: And I just broke my vow not to post in this thread again lol. Oh well.
-
See that doesn't make sense to me because I SWEAR I've heard of a Despicable Me 2... and that's done BY Universal Animation Studios... Whatever... we'll see if that was just a rumor, or not, too.
-
I didn't vow to anything HA HA HA. And I highly doubt we will see another crappy Land Before Time Sequel any time soon. And I'm glad that that stopped after the thirteenth movie. That is what killed the series I bet. So no doubt that there will be a 14th movie.
-
As much as I'd love to see another Pterano movie, I'm kinda glad they stopped the series. Cuz if they did make another sequel, I'd have to go back and edit my fanfiction so everything makes sense.
-
They won't because suppose the company is shut down. But if I herd right there is a a sequel of Yep Universal is making the sequel to Despicable Me 2. Witch comes out in 2013. So I bet they decided to end the series because the 13th move sucked so much.
-
Never say never, but if LBT ever was to be ressurected, HUGE changes would have to be made, and I'm serious about this.
The sequels started off great. Yes, they were a departure from the original film but everything up to Journey through the mists was amazing. Then movie 5 came along, and things suddenly shifted into much weirder territory. Sure, they still had their good moments, but they were definitely starting to lack the magic of the earlier films. The colors were off---movie 5 used too many yellows, movie 6 used too many reds, the animation in 7 was awful and soupy, the animation in the movies after that was horrendous. They even started to add horrendous things like cgi, that god-awful nightmare "Imaginary" song in 9 which gave Barney and King gator a cameo, the idea of "Tinysaurs", giving Littlefoot a father, having tickilsh sharpteeth, that awful where Ducky, Spike and Petrie cried like babies, and they even tried to soften Topps up. Not that I like him being racist, but were Tria and Tricia really needed? I think he was doing just fine in 6-9!
But it was the TV series and Wisdom of friends that completely killed the series. Wisdom of friends is possibly the worst film in all existence---nuff said. The yellowbellies must die. And the tv series? Awful animation, terrible songs, bad music...folks, if we were to ressurect LBT there would have to be serious changes.
1. Make ALL the songs likeable. NO damp squids. Make them ballads, broadway style numbers, rock songs, anything cool. Make sure none are kiddy and several are orchestral.
2. Go back to the animation of the earlier films. No bright animation, no cGI, no soupy animation.
3. Make the color tones mainly blue, green, and dark blue. No birght colors allowed.
4. NEVER, I mean NEVER, bring back the tinysaureses, Tippy and his herd, Rinkus, Dinah and Dana, the idiot flyer judges from 12, Petrie's imaginary friend (or any imaginarty friend for that matter), or those (bleep)ing yellow bellies! Or any character of the tv series. Also, I don't want Mr. Thicknose, Ruby, Doc and Pterano brought back. And certainly not Bron. Forget Bron ever existed. (Sorry, Shorty, that means you go too.) And any character of the tv series. The only characters of the sequels I really want back are Ali(the REAL Ali of movie 4, not the fake one!), the bullies from 3 (make Hyp look like he did in 3), Archie, Elsie, Sue, and Mo (as long as he's colored rightly.) Oh, and Ozzy, Strut, Ichy, Dil, Sierra (have him be a solo flyer now) and the Lioplerudon, providing they survived.
As for "I'll think about it":
Maybe Tria. (Tricia as well, can't have Tria without her.) And maybe Pat and Guido too, maybe. I like Guido but he didn't feel like something out of "classic LBT." Maybe the rainbow faces, although I'm against aliens in LBT.
5. Give the end credits beautiful score, not songs from the movies. that's what they did starting with 3 and until 8 (a bit was used at the end of 11) and it would give the ending of the films a really good feel. I liked that and I prefer listening to beautiful score instead of some lame cover of a song in the film ("Bestest Friends" is the cover I'm talkin bout, not that of "No one has to be alone", that one actually was good and fit well) or a lame reprise of a song in the film.
6. Don't make the characters bland or overly stupid.
7. No filler scenes. Remember that scene where Ducky got kidnapped by the Pteradactyl in 5, for instance?
8 . Make the plots intriguing and mysterious, like in 4!
9. Give the films an overall more mysterious feel. The last few films really lost that.
10. No baby names! "Sky water"? "Sky colors"? No!
11. No goofy, kiddish stuff! WE CAN NEVER, I MEAN NEVER, SEE ANYTHING EVEN IN THE SAME COUNTRY AS "IMAGAINRY FRIENDS", TIPPY, OR THE YELLOWBELLIES, OR YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!
12. Draw the characters normally. Someone pointed out Tippy looked like a teletubbie and Mr. Thicknose didn't even look like an adult dinosaur. Go back to drawing adult dinosaurs like they should be.
13. Make all the characters great.
14. Reference Littlefoot's mother, like a lot.
15. Since the awesome as hell Sharptooth of movie 1, we've had precious few awesome sharpteeth. The ones in 2 were cool but still they were mommy and daddy, and the producers went further in dumbing them by giving them subtitles and making them turn nice to the gang and basically softening them. The raptors in 3 were okay but they weren't huge sharpteeth. Movie 5's sharptooth looked awfully drawn and he had those stupid plates. And he actually cried tears of pain?! DON'T YOU KNOW SHARPTEETH DON'T CRY?! The allosaurs of 6 wasn't even a t-rex and was dumb as a doornail. The t-rex in the story was okay, but he was from a long time ago. The one at the end was okay but he was hardly in it. Movie 7 only had raptors...in a flashback at that. Movie 8's sharptooth? Whatever!! Movie 9's lioplerudon was awesome! Bring him back! Movie 10's sharpteeth? Don't think so! Movie 11's? Raptors that are TICKLISH?! Movie 12's raptor was so dumb. Make all sharpteeth as big and bad as movie 1's.
16. Injure the characters! Have them spill blood, break bones, pass out, something!
17: Have a character die. In 12 sequels not 1 good character died. Which is good but a little overly softening. Movie 1 always stuck out to me in my childhood as the only movie where a good character died.
18. Include more dark, action packed sequences, with rain and lightning, such as the one in movie 9 (seriously that was such a good scene, it felt like something out of a different film entirely and is proof that these movies could be a lot darker while still being kid friendly!)
19. Bring back the land of mists and the big water (call it the ocean, please.), and invent more cool locations.
20. Stick to the style of the first three sequels, maybe make it a little edgier. Don't go as far back as the style of movie 1, since it was only so dark cause they weren't sure if the great valley existed and now they do.)
Anyways, if the films even stood any chance of being revided, ALL of these things would have to happen. This would be a dream come true, but unfortunately chances are incredibly thin.

Don't bring back Pterano? He has a large fanbase from what I've seen, so to not bring him back may actually be a mistake. And personally I see no reason why he or any of the other characters you listed can't come back.
One thing that I should note is that a good movie or a good series of movies is not dependent on the thoughts on one person. Instead, they are a collaboration. For LBT to be resurrected in a way that is intriguing, even better than it was before, listening to the community as a whole is better than just one or two people giving ideas.
For instance, I can say that I feel that the series would benefit from having more violent scenes, a lot more danger, and having a few characters killed off in the sequels. But that doesn't mean the series itself would actually benefit; on the contrary, my ideas may actually hurt the series as the new violence may scare kids and turn adults away.
One of your ideas is to not have Pterano come back, which I mentioned earlier. However, this may be a huge mistake if LBT is resurrected and he is taken off the character list. Pterano is one of the most popular of the LBT characters, and there are many fans who would love for him to return. So having Pterano come back would have a more positive benefit than not letting him come back at all.
If Universal were to listen to only the ideas of one person, they end up alienating the rest of the community, in my opinion.
Personally, if there was to be a resurrection, I would rather see a collaboration of ideas from multiple fans rather than them strictly following anyone's ideas, including my own. I even wouldn't want my own ideas to be the sole decision making process; decisions made by a community rather than one person are, in my opinion, often better.
I hope I didn't offend anyone.
-
Why does Pterano have such a huge fanbase? Because he goes through a "color change"? (Medifore for turning from bad to good)
Anyways what did you think of my ideas?I'd like your thoughts.
-
I think it's because he's the first complex character to be introduced into the series in awhile. Before him, the side characters that the gang ran into were mostly (not all of them) two dimensional and only there to serve a purpose or help the gang out. They didn't really do anything to enhance the story aside from giving assistance to the gang. Otherwise, they're just flat. Good character writing shows strong development, and changes of some sort. Pterano was focused on in such a way that he went from being an antagonist to having a possible shot at fully reforming once his exile was up.
You really didn't see characters like that before or after the seventh movie (with a few exceptions). That's why I think he has a large fan base. I mean heck, he's what resparked my interest in the franchise, although it was short lived, as by the time I saw the tenth movie, I had lost interest again, and didnt' bother seeing them from 11 on.
-
Yeah. From what I recall, Pterano starts off as egotistical, thinking he knows better than anyone, with what looks like a clear motive to take over the world (or rather making flyers rulers of the planet). But as the movie progresses, we start to see that maybe Pterano isn't as bad as we once thought, that maybe there is another side to him that we didn't see at first. And by the end, this becomes a reality: Pterano wasn't actually maniacal; he only wanted to help everyone else.
My thought is that this stems from his guilt at not being able to protect that one herd that was attacked by sharpteeth (in the flashback). Maybe he was so upset with himself that he wanted to redeem himself by using the stone of cold fire to make flyers in charge of the world, believing that this act would save many lives from sharptooth attacks.
But that's just my view on it.
-
Anyways, moving on from Pterano, what does anyone think of my ideas? (I put a lot of thought into them)
-
Some of them I like, and some of them I would not want to see in a LBT movie.
Let's start with:
1. Make ALL the songs likeable. NO damp squids. Make them ballads, broadway style numbers, rock songs, anything cool. Make sure none are kiddy and several are orchestral.
I am not liking this at all. The songs were the weak points of the movies, in my opinion. Some were enjoyable, but they were unnecessary. You don't need a song to get a point across.
2. Go back to the animation of the earlier films. No bright animation, no cGI, no soupy animation.
Computer animation is much more easier and cheaper than hand drawing everything on animation cels. The technique has been abandoned by most, if not all, animation studios. I think taking out the CGI would be nice.
Soupy? Like foggy and clouded or overly sentimental?
3. Make the color tones mainly blue, green, and dark blue. No birght colors allowed.
You realize the tones of a color are the variations of the base color as it moves from dark light to bright light?
4. NEVER, I mean NEVER, bring back the tinysaureses, Tippy and his herd, Rinkus, Dinah and Dana, the idiot flyer judges from 12, Petrie's imaginary friend (or any imaginarty friend for that matter), or those (bleep)ing yellow bellies! Or any character of the tv series. Also, I don't want Mr. Thicknose, Ruby, Doc and Pterano brought back. And certainly not Bron. Forget Bron ever existed. (Sorry, Shorty, that means you go too.) And any character of the tv series. The only characters of the sequels I really want back are Ali(the REAL Ali of movie 4, not the fake one!), the bullies from 3 (make Hyp look like he did in 3), Archie, Elsie, Sue, and Mo (as long as he's colored rightly.) Oh, and Ozzy, Strut, Ichy, Dil, Sierra (have him be a solo flyer now) and the Lioplerudon, providing they survived.
As for "I'll think about it":
Maybe Tria. (Tricia as well, can't have Tria without her.) And maybe Pat and Guido too, maybe. I like Guido but he didn't feel like something out of "classic LBT." Maybe the rainbow faces, although I'm against aliens in LBT.
A lot of those characters you mentioned probably never will show up in another sequel, if the series is ever picked up again. They were major characters for the movies they showed up in but minor characters in the franchise as a whole. Also, removing Bron from the franchise would make your proposed sequels non-canon since he was already introduce and therefore part of The Land Before Time universe.
5. Give the end credits beautiful score, not songs from the movies. that's what they did starting with 3 and until 8 (a bit was used at the end of 11) and it would give the ending of the films a really good feel. I liked that and I prefer listening to beautiful score instead of some lame cover of a song in the film ("Bestest Friends" is the cover I'm talkin bout, not that of "No one has to be alone", that one actually was good and fit well) or a lame reprise of a song in the film.
Maybe.
6. Don't make the characters bland or overly stupid.
I do appreciate good characterization.
7. No filler scenes. Remember that scene where Ducky got kidnapped by the Pteradactyl in 5, for instance?
I agree.
8 . Make the plots intriguing and mysterious, like in 4!
I'm starting to feel that these "sequels" you are proposing will be filled with too much repetitiveness.
9. Give the films an overall more mysterious feel. The last few films really lost that.
As I said for number 8...
10. No baby names! "Sky water"? "Sky colors"? No!
Oh so we just take out such names as The Bright Circle, sharptooth, longneck, threehorn, swimmer, flyer, spiketail, treestar...? I think you can see where I'm going with this, maybe.
11. No goofy, kiddish stuff! WE CAN NEVER, I MEAN NEVER, SEE ANYTHING EVEN IN THE SAME COUNTRY AS "IMAGAINRY FRIENDS", TIPPY, OR THE YELLOWBELLIES, OR YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!
Two things: your opinions and this is a KID's franchise.
12. Draw the characters normally. Someone pointed out Tippy looked like a teletubbie and Mr. Thicknose didn't even look like an adult dinosaur. Go back to drawing adult dinosaurs like they should be.
I don't remember Tippy standing on two legs and having weird formations on his head. And Mr. Thicknose looked very much like his supposed age. But I do not like how the character changed as the series progress. Most of the gang looked really bloated in the later sequels.
13. Make all the characters great.
Such a vague statement. Elaborate please.
14. Reference Littlefoot's mother, like a lot.
Sounds like a not too good idea...
15. Since the awesome as hell Sharptooth of movie 1, we've had precious few awesome sharpteeth. The ones in 2 were cool but still they were mommy and daddy, and the producers went further in dumbing them by giving them subtitles and making them turn nice to the gang and basically softening them. The raptors in 3 were okay but they weren't huge sharpteeth. Movie 5's sharptooth looked awfully drawn and he had those stupid plates. And he actually cried tears of pain?! DON'T YOU KNOW SHARPTEETH DON'T CRY?! The allosaurs of 6 wasn't even a t-rex and was dumb as a doornail. The t-rex in the story was okay, but he was from a long time ago. The one at the end was okay but he was hardly in it. Movie 7 only had raptors...in a flashback at that. Movie 8's sharptooth? Whatever!! Movie 9's lioplerudon was awesome! Bring him back! Movie 10's sharpteeth? Don't think so! Movie 11's? Raptors that are TICKLISH?! Movie 12's raptor was so dumb. Make all sharpteeth as big and bad as movie 1's.
Maybe. I would appreciate a more dangerous villain, but again this is one person's opinion.
16. Injure the characters! Have them spill blood, break bones, pass out, something!
You do know the target age is not above 13? I get that you want it to be but it is ultimately not your choice.
17: Have a character die. In 12 sequels not 1 good character died. Which is good but a little overly softening. Movie 1 always stuck out to me in my childhood as the only movie where a good character died.
Read my thought on number 16.
18. Include more dark, action packed sequences, with rain and lightning, such as the one in movie 9 (seriously that was such a good scene, it felt like something out of a different film entirely and is proof that these movies could be a lot darker while still being kid friendly!)
Maybe a few here and there, but again putting these in all movies would make it repetitive.
19. Bring back the land of mists and the big water (call it the ocean, please.), and invent more cool locations.
They can't call it the ocean as it is officially established as Big Water. I agree more interesting locations could be added, although I think the gang has done enough exploring.
20. Stick to the style of the first three sequels, maybe make it a little edgier. Don't go as far back as the style of movie 1, since it was only so dark cause they weren't sure if the great valley existed and now they do.)
This contradicts #s 16, 17, and 18. And 2, 3, and 4 weren't really that edgy.
These are my thoughts on your suggestions. They are true and some may be a bit rude but these are my thoughts on your ideas.
-
I couldn't have said it better Justin1993. To add on to the comment about characters being injured, killed off, etc....this is why there's a horror genre in entertainment. Leave that kind of material out of a series that is rated for ALL ages, and satisfy your violence fetish with something else. Just my opinion. I have no intent on being offensive to anyone, and if so, I already apologize.
-
Thanks for replying to my ideas, Justin. But some of your reasons were...a little invalid.

There is nothing wrong with this idea. Repetitiveness is nothing if it's a really cool style we see over and over again. Yes, most of the time repetitiveness is bad. But take Enya's music for example---all of her albums sound the same and I'd never want them to change.

Which makes me wonder what the general age of the members on here are. I'm a teenager (I won't say how old) and I honestly hope I haven't entered a forum a bunch of little kids are on (shudder.) But anyways they could injure the characters, and just be subtle about it.

Pure awesome sequences can never get too repetitive.

Enough exploring? What, you expect them after all this time to suddenlt stop? And it has been called the ocean, Elsie in 5 said, "We'd make quite a pair, swimming about in the sea", and Mr. Threehorn said, "What do u expect them to do? Rise up out of the ocean?"

I want to contradict those! Repetitiveness won't do anything wrong as long as it's great! 2,3, and 4 weren't that edgy, seeing as all of the sequels are lighter and softer then the original, but those were moreso then 5-12.
These are my thoughts on your suggestions. They are true and some may be a bit rude but these are my thoughts on your ideas.
Thanks, I really appreciate it. I really do. :)
-
Ah yes they did say "ocean", though I'm not sure if the kids know of the term.
My thoughts are that the dinos don't call all oceans "big water"; Big Water is the name of an ocean. Either that, or it's just a term the kids came up with and the adults just never bothered to tell them "ocean".
And yes I'm sure they know about the term "sea" because I am sure that Elsie mentions the sea in LBT 5.
Now I wouldn't really say Justin's reasons are "invalid", Bruton. They're just his opinions, as your posts are of your opinions. You may not agree with him, but that doesn't mean that his views are "invalid".
For instance, you claim that his statement of "it's your opinion and this is a kids series" is over the top, but how is that so? He was keeping his post short and simple to get his point across. It's okay if you don't agree, but I don't see why you thought he was crossing the line with that statement.
On top of that, when he states that the target audience is not above 13, you start to question the age of the people on this forum. It seems like to me you misunderstood what Justin was actually saying. He was not saying that everyone here is little kids. Most people here, to my knowledge, are either teens or young adults (or even older). If you read Justin's post carefully, you'd realize he was referring to the company's target audience.
Land Before Time is indeed meant for little kids. Universal made the movies for little kids; that's their target audience. But this doesn't mean older people can't enjoy the movies. What you have to keep in mind, Bruton, is you must take in consideration the target audience. You might like LBT to be more violent, but bare in mind Universal made LBT for children and thus the movies have to remain at a certain rating.
Repetitiveness is not really a good thing. Repetitiveness results in things getting boring, not better ore more exciting. If the things you proposed happened all the time, well, where's the excitement? Where are the surprises? If they happened so much, well, they'd get boring and the movie series would not do so well. There would be nothing new to expect.
Maybe you like repetitiveness and think it would be good, but if there's one thing I learned over the years, it's that repeating things too much actually decreases the value of something. Let me provide an example for you.
Let's say the movies do all have sharpteeth that are just like the first sharptooth. Same size, same tenacity. And the gang is attacked by one every movie, roughly the same time. Sure this is interesting at first, but don't you think it'd get boring after a while? By movie 8 I'd be so sick of it, personally, that I probably wouldn't even finish the movie. Having a tenacious sharptooth in every movie gets repetitive and takes away any element of surprise of who the gang will have to face. It would make people be more along the lines of "come on dangerous sharptooth, show up so I can get this over with!".
I do agree with Justin. Some of your ideas are good. But some of them, which he already pointed out, I don't entirely agree with. Some of them just don't work for a pure LBT movie series/TV show, especially the one about them spilling blood and breaking bones. Again the target audience is kids. Just because older people enjoy LBT doesn't mean Universal is going to start adding things that would make them lose their target audience.
And I should add that, far as I know, G is actually the most versatile of the ratings, garnering the largest possible audience. The reason for this is because G is not too intense for kids, and adults can still relate to G movies' messages, characters, etc. If Universal decides to up it to PG-13, it loses a chunk of its audience, as parents will not let their kids watch the movies then, and thus Universal would lose part of its profit.

Land Before Time is indeed meant for little kids. Universal made the movies for little kids; that's their target audience. But this doesn't mean older people can't enjoy the movies.
Thanks, I really appreciate that. I've been going through some rough times with my mom, who is completely against me doing this, and I started to wonder if I was actually doing something completely wrong. But like you said, LBT is meant for little kids, but older people can appreciate and enjoy it too. Again, thanks.

What do you mean the gang has done enough exploring? You can never do enough exploring! If they were to stop doing so the films would suffer! Nononononono!!
-
Well too much exploring can get repetitive and thus boring. I would like it to see more LBT movies where they don't explore. Just because they don't explore doesn't mean there's no story to tell. An LBT sequel can be interesting without the gang exploring some new land.
-
^ :exactly
Only a few of the movies had a conflict that mainly took place inside the valley itself. The 3rd movie is a prime example. Most of the movie took place inside the valley, with a little bit of the movie taking place outside in the Mysterious Beyond. I enjoyed that movie better than most of the sequels.
-
Ah yes I forgot about Land Before Time 3 taking place mostly in the valley.
Didn't you say that LBT 3 was your favorite sequel, Bruton? As I recall, you really enjoyed it and didn't understand why it seemed less liked than other sequels. Well there was no real exploring in that movie, just searching for water inside the valley. They barely went anywhere in the Mysterious Beyond. The movie didn't end up suffering because of the lack of exploration.
Having a movie take place largely inside the valley provides a chance to get to know the valley more. The first sequel took place, as well, almost entirely in the Great Valley. They only left the valley momentarily to stop egg thieves, not to explore. And that movie still did well enough.
Of the 3 original sequels, only one, the 4th, had the gang go somewhere else outside of the valley for much of the film.
-
You're right. Sorry, guess I got carried away. Glad to see you guys know which ones are my favorites, it really makes me feel appreciated. :)
But there was one film where they didn't go exploring, and it ended up being one of the worst, most nightmarish LBT films---11. God, I hate that one. I don't like 10 but I really hate that one. :x
And yes, I think 3 actually is my favorite sequel. It's been years since I've seen it, though. I know I've said quite a few times that 4 was my favorite, but...either 3 and 4 are tied, or 3 wins. Cause it didn't have any weak points---"Grandma's lullaby" was always such a damp squid of a song for me, and Tickles takes...an aquired taste to like.
Still, I'd have him any day over Petrie's imaginary friend :x
-
You're right about that one, however I think it was more of the plot and those insufferable tinysauruses that made that movie less than average.
-
Yeah, I wasn't saying cause of that it was bad, even.
You know, I love seeing them go adventuring, but to be perfectly honest, I also like when the films stay mostly in the valley. I was just afraid Justin was implying he doesn't think they should ever go exploring again. But yeah, "Time of the Great Giving" stayed in the valley, and it was amazing. So did "Great Valley Adventure", another favorite of mine, although you pretty much can imply that from the title. :smile
-
Personally, I hope Universal or someone else... even Disney takes up LBT and makes something. I feel real attached to the LBT franchise. If I was older, I'd give up everything to help make, fund, participate or direct an LBT movie. But then it also saddens me to think, even if I did go down a movie career, they'd have me do computer animated films (that have no sequels) that don't have as much heart as LBT did, and then, when I'd finally have the money, and recognition for a producer or investor to help me make an LBT film... It would be in my late 30s or 40s... it would be 20-30 years from now... it just makes me so sad :( by the time I ever did make/participate in one, LBT would be like a fading memory, long gone... Charles Grosvenor, Michele Brourman, Michael Tavera, Amanda McBroom, might all be dead.. and the people who voiced the characters would be old. Or very old. and some dead
It makes me so sad! I'd give anything ..
-
If something is done about the series I can see three things happening.
1. It will be a remake of the original film.
2. It will be sequel that hopefully will take the series to the next level and have a storyline that makes sense and won't be anything like the 11th movie and 13th movie.
3. They will continue on with the T.V. Series.
Until then only time will tell with what will happen with the series.

I'd be fine with a remake, as long as it means everyone will see it in theaters, and then the franchise will continue. What's wrong with LBT 11? I thought it was better than the twelvth one. While both were good, the twelvth one kinda felt more like a TV movie. But I agree with you on LBT 13. I heard they had lower budget lol. :(
According to the Universal Studios Animation page on Wikipedia, saying that the TV series was put on hiatus because of Kenneth Mars... makes me wonder if it's on hiatus because they no longer have a well-known person playing a part?
Also, what I don't get, is the page says LBT TV series was from 2007-present, but I thought it was only in like 2007 and 2008? There's only 26 episodes. What's the deal with that?
-
Probably stemming from the fact that is was never officially cancelled per say, but simply put on hiatus till the end of time. Futurama wasn't officially cancelled either in it's original run. Fox just decided to not buy another season.
And I kinda liked 11 too. It had an interesting conflict (fighting prejudice, and basically putting another kind down), and I liked the tinysaurus characters. 12 just had something about the great day of the flyers, and the "resolution" made absolutely no sense, though Guido was a nice, funny character.
And don't believe everything you read on Wikipedia. They made movie 13 without Kenneth Mars, so I don't think he was the reason they didn't continue it. It was most likely because of low viewership (eg: it didn't make much money).

Like vonboy said don't believe anything said on Wikipedia. They need to put a lock on The Land Before Time page of Wikipedia then users won't be able to vandalize or put false info on it.

If you want a Wiki that gives you REAL info of The Land Before Time, the following is the best source.
http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/Land_Before_Time_Wiki (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/Land_Before_Time_Wiki)
Best of all, it's created by the fans, for the fans. :)

WHAT! THE LBT SERIES IS OVER, GONE, DELETED, VANISHED! NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

^Why the drama now? The last film was released years ago. And it's not dead while the GOF stands. And even if the GOF goes down, it still won't mean the end. ;)
-
You said it! :smile

I would not blame anyone unless it's for a good reason.
I think it's wrong to blame somebody that dosen't know what he had done.
If the Land Before Time XIV is a rumor then it's a rumor.

I have CONFIRMED information on LBT 14. Accidentally confirmed, but confirmed nonetheless. Head over to my topic in general discussion, you can't miss it.
-
Here is additional confirmation from a release about another DTV movie published 2 days ago:
Dragonheart 3 (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/universal-pictures-home-entertainment-dragonheart-140000802.html)
In case the link doesn't work, the last two paragraphs in the article is a description of Universal, and the last line of the first paragraph is as follows:
Among the projects currently readying for release include Scorpion King 4: Quest for Power and the newest installments of the beloved family franchises, Beethoven and The Land Before Time.
I think it's safe to say that LBT 14 has been all but confirmed.
-
Lovely :)
It reminds me a little of the very first announcement of the TV series back in 2005 which, as far as I recall, was also kind of "hidden" on another webpage.
We had long accepted that there wouldn't be any new LBT installments anymore, but I guess it goes to show that dinosaurs don't go extinct easily and that a long hiatus needn't be extinction ;)
We may want to avoid celebrating just yet, mostly since according to the interview the information wasn't supposed to leak out just now, but then again once reference has already made it into a published article I reckon it is not exactly classified anymore anyway. And in case anyone involved with the production of the land before time happens to drop by (which I guess is quite possible), please just enjoy the free advertisment among a crowd enjoying the land before time a lot :smile
Thanks a lot thelonedinosaur27 for sharing the interview (and welcome to the GOF :yes) and to you Stitch for the article :)
I imagine this will make the day for many of us :celebrate :cheers :birthday
-
This is fantastic! Thank you so much, thelonedinosaur and Stitch!
-
At last.
-
Thank you so much for providing this information. This is certainly a pleasant surprise. :)
-
This is better than any drug :smile A new LBT? That wouldn't make my day but at least a week if not a month :exactly
-
As grand as it sounds, and I'm sure we'd all be grateful to see our dino gang return to our screens, I suppose we should be mindful of the format it may take. A new LBT announcement doesn't necessarily mean an LBT 14. Could be a new series of episodical adventures or a spin off perhaps (as long as they don't go pseudo-anime on us like everything else in animation these days...). Still, the prospect of a new LBT project does reignite some fires. :D
-
Glad everyone is excited! Glad to be a part of this community too. I'm gonna predict that its not a show, but that its a movie, based on what was said in my interview. The reason it came up in the first place was because we were talking about songs in the films, and she happened to mention the ones in the "new" one are great too.
-
Speculations can begin now ;)
The most frequent question in chats so far has been whether or not the next sequel will refer to the TV-series (specifically if Ruby and Chomper are to be in it).
Seeing that the last sequel was produced after the series chances are that they may mostly ignore the series (same as with the series and movies on how to train your dragon).
In any case I would think it very probably that they will continue to make "stand alone" sequels as in them not requiring any knowledge of the other movies (the only sequel so far where knowledge of earlier movies was helpful (though not compulsory) would be LBT 5.
Nevertheless I would say there may be a chance that the next movie might refer to the TV series for a different reason. Thing is that possible plots within the limited space offered by the prehistoric setting of a "society" of dinosaurs with survival, food and security being the main motivators are sparse (no doubt a reason that fanfictions usually mix LBT with elements that would be off limits in the movies).
Now the TV series opened up a lot of questions which would provide some good plot material for stories that wouldn't be a mere repetition of what we have seen before. So personally I think it might be possible.
I agree with those who hope that the new movie doesn't continue to focus on the youngest audience only (which I'm afraid was a main cause for the disappointment many expressed about later sequels and LBT 13 in particular).
My personal wish would be for the movie to somewhat return a bit more to the somewhat darker setting of the original or the early sequels (which were far from dark but at least there was some real sense of threat when sharpteeth were around, unlike in case of any sharptooth after LBT 9).
-
This announcement almost makes me okay with having to work retail on black friday. Almost...
Great to hear, if it turns out being true, or it doesn't get cancelled or something.
-
Looks like the long hiatus is over for The Land Before Time. Reminds me of what happened with other shows. Such an interesting twist, seven years later.
-
Are you sure? It's been a long time. I was hoping to be the one to restart it.
-
yes we can discuss lbt14, since universal has confirmed it.

Not quite. Though I actually saw II first, if you don't see the original, you don't know some things.
I did think of one sequel idea that might work (I have several, but I'm gonna put one here.)
Pternao returns and eventually, Petrie starts to really like him again, I don't think, even after seeing his uncle's darker side, that he really disliked him, as he is brought up a few times in the TV series.
Well, anyway, at some point, Petrie and Pterano are doing really well. Then, after a conversation, Pterano drops a bombshell: Petrie's father was one of his followers and died as a result of his "leadership".
Petrie's father has never been shown and this could be a good reason to show why and develop a plot out of it.
Petrie would go really south with Pterano after that, though eventually Pterano would save Petrie's life, say in some fight with some bad guy, possibly Sierra, at the end, and the two would reconcile.
The film could be about forgiveness and all of that.
Here's another possible theory for 14. It would sorta contradict the narrator of the 2nd film, but, heck, Ruby (and possibly the Domeheads) kinda already do.
An omnivore villain sneaks into the Great Valley. He and some of his fellow pretend to be leaf eaters and trick everyone. They are planning to eat lots of leaf eaters, as their mixed diet leaves them undetected.
However, Chomper, and possibly Ruby, who still might be hanging there hiding from Red Claw, somehow overhear the bad guy's plans. The bad guys soon figure this out, kill someone (no, not one of the main characters or their relatives!) and blame it on Chomper, the "evil Sharptooth", causing him, and possibly Ruby, to be run out of the Great Valley.
However, near the end, before the bad guys, who decide, for whatever reason, to go for Littlefoot and his friends first, reveal themselves to be bad, though they have Littlefoot & co. cornered so it looks bad, but then Chomper and Ruby happen to sneak back in and fight off the bad guys, who fall into sinking sand (haven't seen a bad guy die that way in LBT yet, have we?).
Chomper is cleared of all charges of wrongdoing and everyone apologizes to him. He and Ruby are hailed as heroes.
My theory three is that , perhaps Red Claw is revealed to be Sharptooth's brother, and, maybe after a nasty attack in the Great Valley, Littlefoot, perhaps out of anger and spite for that family, goes after him, and is tagged along by Littlefoot and the others, including Chomper and Ruby.
Along they way, they get a group of Sharpteeth and leaf eaters and maybe a Fast Runner or two to all join them and be friends.
Eventually, they come across Red Claw, Screech, and Thud, and defeat them, with Thud, who seemed somewhat redeemable as he was nice to them once, possibly going rogue against Red Claw and joining them.
This sequel theory actually makes quite a bit of sense as that was their aim in the TV series, to get the creatures of the Mysterious Beyond to work together and overthrow Red Claw and his minions.
-
Guess it's too early ti tell, but how will fanfic writers treat this sequal? We've had 7 years with the canon stopped for fanfiction writers to build off of. Now the 14th one will bring in new canon to build off of.
Are any fic writers gonna maybe pull back on their ideas some, to see what the next one entails? I remember Chronicler doing that with his first Biocicle/LBT crossover story, going to Chomper's Parent's island, but not showing them, or even talkng about what happened to them/ if they're even alive, since we still thought the series would continue at that point, and he didn't want do something with them, find out they are actually dead or something, then screw his sotry over for the sequal.
Anyway, just something to think about.
-
yes we can discuss lbt14, since universal has confirmed it.
They did?
-
Yeah, David. Stitch posted the link right after it was found out in that interview. It's been here this whole time. I missed it too. 0.0
Dragonheart 3 (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/universal-pictures-home-entertainment-dragonheart-140000802.html)
Looks like it's basically come from a press release, by the way it's worded, and it says they're working on a new entry in the Land Before Time franchise.
Hmm, maybe I should go look in Universal's press site for the actual press release that says it?
-
This is the only thing I found out about LBT14 on Google.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Land-Before-...103820536318016 (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Land-Before-Time-14/103820536318016)
-
That doesn't even say anything, lol. Oh well, it might be a long time yet before we actually find anything out about the movie.
Hmm, wonder why it's coming back now? They stopped after Wisdom of Friends when that one lost them money. Are they hoping to make a profit again? They must be if they're making another one, but just wondering if they'll actually make a profit again. I hope they can. :)
-
yes we can discuss lbt14, since universal has confirmed it.
OMG...I am soooooooooooooooo excited!!
In the 7 years since Wisdom of Friends I've been through so much, including re-discovering LBT and becoming a member of the GOF!! :smile
-
I think this may not refer to the TV series, unless it has to. Just like Wisdom of Friends and the TV series were done at the same time, and the TV series was confirmed to take place after movie 13, they can always do movie 14, assuming it takes place AFTER the TV series, and still even return to the TV series, as long as they don't counter what they did in movie 14.
I'm hoping for another villainess. I'm also hinting that one of my favorite LBT villains (who, hopefully, is still alive, as, unlike my other favorite (the infamouse Sharptooth of the first movie), he wasn't confirmed to have died.) Sierra, will come back.
-
I will just leave this here...

Working on "The Land Before Time XIV" with Jeff Bennett as Petrie, Felix Avitia as Littlefoot and Aria Noelle Curzon as "Ducky" voiceover for new DVD Movie.

Update: According to this (http://instagram.com/p/oRmUSALi-e/) exchange on Instagram from felix_avitia, the next movie won't be finished until 2016. Interestingly, this picture is dated May 2014.
Update 2: I did a bit more digging and found his Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/FelixAvitia) page. The only posts that seem relevant to LBT XIV appear to be the following:
From May 1, 2014:
JUST BOOKED THE LEAD CHARACTER "LITTLE FOOT" ON "LAND BEFORE TIME" DVD MOVIE!!! If you remember the old movies "The Land Before Time" ... then you know what I'm talking about. Little Foot is an Apatosaurus and the character sings in this one! During the call back the director and producers were all dancing and gave a standing ovation after finishing singing audition song! The director even blew a kiss. So, had a good feeling when we finally got the official call today! Very excited! Tentative start date is May 12th!! Thank you again everyone for all your support! We read every like and comment and you all motivate us to reach even higher!
This is consistent with the picture of the voice actors which was taken in May and posted on Instagram.
From August 27:
Learned and performed two of three songs for "The Land Before Time XIV" yesterday, as the lead character "Little Foot"... after the recording session, a Producer and the Music Writer/Composer handed over this real Grammy and applauded saying, "No doubt that one day you will be holding one of these!" Shocked and very honored they said that... Better sing the last song great now! Lol. Recording the last song for the movie next month. Great memories! Thanks for all your support!!
So it appears that the voice work for the film has been completed.
-
Seems the movie will be treading very familiar ground. :)
-
I consider this to be THE hint that the movie WILL come so I think it won't hurt to say it's definitely coming one day :)
-
Well good to see their still hiring a kid actor to do Littlefoot. Unlike some characters... -_- And good to see they got Petrie's VA back:)
-
Yeah, Petrie with another VA would be odd... we're so used to him by now :p
Anyway, do you think it's okay to make it public that a new movie is coming?
-

Anyway, do you think it's okay to make it public that a new movie is coming?
Yes Petrie's (2nd) VA has been the one of the most loyal actors. As he's done Petrie and other characters in every sequel and the TV show.
Though as I said before they will have to get new VAs for grandpa long neck and Topsy as their old ones passed away...
Yeah I say go for it.
-
Any news on whether Chomper, Ruby, Red Claw, Screech, and Thud are in this one?
-
^ Not as of yet. Based upon my post and the others, all we can really be sure of thus far is this:
* A new Land Before Time film is coming out.
* The voice actor for Littlefoot is Felix Avitia, whereas Petrie's and Ducky's voice actors remain unchanged. The other voice actors are not yet known.
* The voice work for the film is apparently finished.
* There are at least 3 songs in the new film where Littlefoot participates.
* According to Felix Avitia, the film won't be finished until 2016.
-
If the voice recording is already done, and it's apparently going to take up to two years to finish the animation, do you think that means they're putting a little more effort in this sequal? Anyone have any information on how long the sequels usually take to animate?
I could be wrong, but that just seems like a long time to animate a direct-to-dvd movie to me, that's all.
-
Well, just consider that they were making LBT 13 plus the tv-series within a mere year or so (LBT 12 came out in 2006?). Though we can't know when exactly they have started working on it. They might have already started while LBT 12 was still in the making. Also LBT 12 probably didn't come out right after they finished it :p
Does anybody know how long it took to produce the original LBT movie? I think I seem to recall they needed about two years.
So... anyway, I have a feeling they ARE going to put some effort into it since LBT 13 lost them money (and they clearly didn't put a lot of effort into it ;))
-
Eh probably several years.
Lol, I had a dream last night that the LBT 14 was called "The Land Before Time XIV: Becoming Moe" or something, to where Moe turned into a longneck the size of baby Littlefoot. He still had the yellow and purple and stuff so it looked cute xD :lol
Also the soundtrack released was called LBT 14: Family and Friends
-
Don't know if this was ever posted here, but it appears that XIV is likely to be a DVD release and not a theater release.
http://www.jeangillmore.com/download/Jean-...more-Resume.pdf (http://www.jeangillmore.com/download/Jean-Gillmore-Resume.pdf)
It also looks like production of XIV probably began last year too, looking at that. Not 100% sure on that.
-
Oh wow interesting :)
-
Thanks for the new information. :) It looks like both voice work and production began in 2014. The pieces of information are slowly coming together.
-
According to this site (http://actorsentertainment.com/actorse/actor-felix-avitia-guests-on-actorse-chat-with-actress-host-christie-philips/) the 14th film is set for release in late 2015. From the site:
"Felix also ventured into voice over acting for the first time when he was cast to star in “The Land Before Time XIV” movie as “Little Foot” set to release late 2015 in which he also sings and an animation pilot for Amazon Prime as “Niko” in “Niko and the Sword of Light” set to release in January 2015. Felix, who was recently signed by Disney, will star in a pilot alongside Disney veteran Cameron Boyce in 2015."
-
Well spotted! :wow Of course the end of 2015 would be even cooler than 2016 :smile I hope this will be the case!
-
^Same here. I sure hope it comes out before Christmas, 'cause this'll probably be the first thing that goes on my list. :p
-
Based on what I remember of previous LBT movie release dates, it should be
-
Did anybody of you listen to the interview on the site rhombus posted btw? Since Felix spoils some things about the movie :wow It sounds... promising to say the least :exactly
His voice seems to fit the character Littlefoot quite well :)
-
As David said, the interview reveals some interesting things and I'll post the basics here. So far, this is what I got from the interview according to Littlefoot's new VA:
- The Land Before Time XIV has a title: Journey of the Heart.
- Bron's going to be making a return to the series, and the plot seems to be centred more around him and Littlefoot again.
- The plot sounds a bit more mature compared to the last few sequels. (If you want to find out the basics, Felix mentions it within the first three minutes of the interview. :yes )
- Singing will definitely be included.
- It will be, like the others, direct-to-video.
I'm really curious now. :DD
-
While I am not exhillerated that there will be Bron in it I do wonder if the title "Journey of the heart" in combination with Bron might allude to some reference to the original movie.
Let your heart guide you. It whispers. So listen closely...
-
Yeah. I think that was the thing that caught my attention the most. Even just the title makes the film sound like it's going to go in a direction that's similar to the original film (well it certainly doesn't sound simple/happy/goofy like a couple of other titles). Let's hope so anyway. I'm not entirely sure how Bron's gotten back into it, but let's hope that with his return there might be other characters returning too (Shorty for example). :yes
-
I admit, I didn't really think much about the title and what connection it might have. I'm more interested in Bron. Him being in the movie definitely gives me more reason to see it. I'm hoping to see the father/son relationship develop more, and perhaps even learn a bit more of Bron's backstory.
-
Are there going to be more after this? (I really hope Littlefoot doesn't leave the Gang of Five this time and they do what they almost did in film X.)
P.S., I hope Bron survives this one. It would stink if Littlefoot lost another family member.
-
Knowing the fact that XIII lost Universal some money, it will probably depend on how much money is made off of promoting this film. I guess we'll have to see if there indeed will be any more after this... ;)
-
Can we assume that this takes place before or after the TV Series or during it?
-
I do hope there will be a 14th movie and that it'll be well written, directed and acted. Though I also won't really believe there is one till after it's out. Don't want to sound pessimist.
-
The 14th is either confirmed or else this is a very good hoax that even fools me. I must say, this is a 2 year longer time gap between 13 and 14 than there was between 1 and 2.
Then again, we never though we'd see Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, which also, ironically enough, also is coming out this year.
This year appear to be the year of miracles so I'm hoping we'll get a constitutional amendments convention this year too and a Chicago Cubs World Series win.
-
I HOPE there are going to be more :DD If they're good quality and well thought about that is :yes
-
The time gap is what seems to be the most threatening to this film.
We have a left off TV Series that needs to be resolved and pretending it doesn't exist will piss of Chomper and Ruby fans, among others.
Also, we have fans that saw the movies and they have GOT to be in their 30's and 40's now as the first movie came out the year before I was born and I'm 25 going on 26 now.
There have also got to be fans my age who saw Great Valley Adventure, I think, er, maybe, as their first film.
Then, there are those who might be 10-18 who saw the 12th and the 13th, films and the TV Series.
And, now, there are going to be those who see this next one.
Land Before Time has now spanned from 1988 - 2015. That is 27 years!!!! That's gotta be near the record for a continuing film series for kids. (I know, for instance, Star Wars has been around longer, but that is PG and PG13 (Ep. III was PG13.))
I really hope that, someday, they make one, perhaps one called, say, "The Time of Great Growing" (Something we all have been dying and also kinda fearful to see (The fearful part is because of a certain character by the name of Chomper.) ) that could appeal to all of the age groups mentioned above and make a huge sale and send the series off properly. :exactly :exactly :exactly
-
I can't believe LBT 14 is possibly coming out! :)
-
Yay! I am optimistic! And if Shorty returns, which with Bron's return is quite likely, I hope they handle him a bit better as a character than they did in the TV series.
-
Heh, I was wondering when you'd reply :lol. I mean I hope they include all the new characters and the later sequel chars too, but doing that with some may mess with what the creators might want to do with the story. For example, if the gang took chomper into the mysterious beyond to meet Bron or really any other leaf eater along the way (should Bron be out there that is) I don't things would go so well
-
Er, why not? Chomper might actually be able to help by using his "sniffer".
-
So Bron's gonna be in it again? Cool.
-
The only reason I could see them really putting Chomper in is because he's a fan favorite. Maybe they might think putting the friendly sharptooth in might increase dvd sales.
I REALLY hope he's in, but we don't know yet.
-
I doubt Chomper will be in this one, though, if they make more movies, it's a pretty safe bet to say that he'll be back. I hope they bring back our favorite Fast Runner too. I don't know much about her, but she looks huggable and that's sellable.
-
I saw the news about LBT 14 on the Channel Awesome forum.
-
It's also spreading like a wildfire on DeviantArt since I made a journal about the new movie there :)
-
While I am not exhillerated that there will be Bron in it I do wonder if the title "Journey of the heart" in combination with Bron might allude to some reference to the original movie.
Let your heart guide you. It whispers. So listen closely...
I, too, have mixed feelings about Bron's return. His character was initially similar to that of a deadbeat father, he only knew his son for a short period of time in LBT X, and had the audacity to even suggest that Littlefoot leave the only family he ever had (friends and grandparents) to be with his father he hardly knew. These details have left me with very mixed feelings about Bron. On the other hand, I am curious to see what happens in this film :yes.
-
I'm not sure if I could call Bron a "deadbeat dad", considering that it would suggest that he purposely left responsibility because he didn't want to care for Littlefoot, but based on what I've seen, this isn't the case. I know some people think of him as such, but I have to disagree. After all, if he didn't care at all about Littlefoot, why would he spend so long searching for him?
I also disagree with the "audacity to ask Littlefoot to stay" thing. After all, he had spent a long time looking for Littlefoot when he was able to come back, and he had thought that he had lost him. Him asking Littlefoot to stay made perfect sense; if you were looking for somebody for a long time, someone you care about, especially a family member, and they finally show up after you had long given up hope, would you be so willing to let them out of your sight again?
And yes, it can be said that he could have left the herd to be with Littlefoot, but that would present another problem. He'd be abandoning his herd, the ones that had looked up to him for a long time. It would seem hypocritical to me to assume that it would be okay for Bron to abandon all those longnecks whom had looked ot him for guidance for years (hey there must be some reason they let him be leader), but then cry foul if Littlefoot were asked to leave to join his father. Both situations offer similar repercussions.
-
Speaking of Bron, is it too much to ask for Kiefer Sutherland to come back?
But, actually, I'm pretty excited. I can see this movie having a lot of parallels with the first, with the mention of heart and also one of Littlefoot's parents. If they do add Chomper and Ruby in, it will be extremely ironic for the very thing that killed his mother and took her away from him to help him find his father and bring him back. If they do take that route, I'm really excited to see how it will be played out.
The relation between Littlefoot and Bron is also a very interesting aspect to explore and look at, and could give us some very touching and heartwarming scenes. Also, when Felix stated that "it's an emergency", that makes it sound a bit more adult, and could give us some real meaning as to why Littlefoot goes off. Other than the obvious "oh he's my dad of course I'm gonna go find him", there's also the important factor of his mother was killed by a Sharptooth and then died right before his eyes, and it was, unfortunately, all avoidable. If Littlefoot thinks he can do something to prevent an "emergency" from happening and history repeating itself, leaving Littlefoot an orphan for real, then that's what he's going to do.
The Bron storyline could also give us some brotherly development between Littlefoot and Shorty, especially since he's both of their paternal and fatherly figure. It'll be interesting to see how this affects Shorty, who would, most presumably want to go after Bron as well. Think about it, Bron's been taking care of him for a very long time, unlike Littlefoot who's only known him for a short time. So, I would predict that Shorty joins the gang as well.
Hopefully this'll be a good movie. It seems like they're putting a lot of effort into this. Hopefully it pays off. I just really hope that they're going to build off the TV canon and add Chomper and Ruby up into this gig. (lol jk i just want jack bauer dinosaur back)
-
It will be interesting if the Brandon Michael DePaul reprises his role as Shorty or if Elizabeth Daily does the role. This movie is going to get very interesting.
-
If it's an emergency, I think it possible that Bron could be trapped somewhere (i.e. earthshake trapped him in some place where there is little food and water.)
I just hope we DON'T have Bron die, as that would be too dark. I could have other characters die, but Littlefoot doesn't need to lose his father after he lost his mother.
As for Chomper and Ruby, unless they decide to go away, they might still be around, even if they don't show up in this one. I mean, maybe Chomper and Ruby aren't invited to come with them.
(Chomper is supposed to be hiding from Red Claw. Going on this crazy journey puts them at risk and they might already be taking risk without Red Claw turning up to make things worse.0
-
Good point. Redclaw could also be the actual reason for Bron being in trouble... :unsure:
I agree that Bron's death would be kinda dark but I wouldn't say that's too dark. Littlefoot still has his Grandparents to care for him and his friends to support him after all :)
-
I wonder if Andi McAfee and Rob Paulsen will resume their roles as Cera and Spike for the new movie :unsure:
-
Rob Paulsen is more likely to come back, being the prolific voice actor he is, but as for Anndi reappearing, I'm not sure. Personally I think she should be replaced, because even if Anndi still sounded good as the character in her mid-30's, I seriously think she's had her run in the franchise. No offense meant or anything, of course.
-
Who do you guys think will direct LBT 14?
I'm guessing Grosvenor (he did direct 5 to 12 after all)
-
, but as for Anndi reappearing, I'm not sure. Personally I think she should be replaced, because even if Anndi still sounded good as the character in her mid-30's, I seriously think she's had her run in the franchise. No offense meant or anything, of course.
Glad to know you too think Cera badly needs a new voice preferable by a child actor like Littlefoot. As I've said in other posts I've never been that keen on Anndi McAfee role as Cera, and I think she was too old for the role in the first place, She was in her late teens when LBT 5 was made. And she's far too old now as TAP said she's well into her 30s.. If they do rehire Anndi I won't be happy. My reaction will be like this :bang As
And I can't say I'm happy that their still using Aria Noelle Curzon to voice Ducky for the 14th film, when she's in her late 20s now...
I'm sorry to keep banging on about this and I no some people like that she makes Ducky sound older. But for me I really think it's time they got a new VA for Ducky too.
I've got nothing against Aria (or Anndi McAfee) She's a good actress and has done voice overs in loads of my other favourite media. And her voice for Ducky was ok in the first 2 or 3 LBT films. But by the later ones when she got older it sounds to me pretty forced to make it child like ( and will probably to me sound more forced in the up coming film), there for down grading Ducky's cute factor, and for me is only recognisable as Ducky cause of the "Yep yep yep" and silly grammar stuff. Also she doesn't hold a candle to Judith Barsi. Oh Judith :cry
Sorry to be soo negative but it just bugs me that I have problems with the new film before it's even been released. Another thing that bugs me is that their still having songs in the film. Mind you they might be songs that I like or can sit through like in the 2nd, 4th, 7th and 12th films.
This is just my opinion please don't judge me.
-
We've already had a discussion concerning Ducky's and Cera's VA's so I won't pick that up again. Your opinion does make sense though I (personally) don't like being so negative towards something I really love (which is also why I have long ceased to bash LBT 13 but try to point out the good things about it; same about the tv-series)
Anyways, I don't know who is going to direct the new movie but it could be Grosvenor as well as ANY person so... we'll find out sooner or later :yes
-
I personally like both Anndi and Aria in their roles, and I like hearing the Gang at least sound older. Maybe the characters will be older in this upcoming film? I would like to see them finally hit the Time of Great Growing. Maybe this will be used to explain the losses of certain older characters and reintroduce the fact of life known as the Circle of Life? Just my thoughts.
-
All possible :lol Though Littlefoot wouldn't have hit puberty since Felix Avitia's voice is still very child-like :)
-
Who do you guys think will direct LBT 14?
I'm guessing Grosvenor (he did direct 5 to 12 after all)
I don't know how reliable LinkedIn is, but it looks like LBT XIV will have a different director (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/davis-doi/7a/5b6/733?trk=pub-pbmap) to Charles Grosvenor. If this is true, then we've got someone with a fair amount of experience in animation/cartoons. We also have a different producer (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/lisa-melbye/7/bb3/84a?trk=pub-pbmap) (and here's a second one (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/deirdre-brenner/7/480/862?trk=pub-pbmap)). They all state that LBT XIV has been in production since April 2014, which gives it around a good year and a half in production. So, not as much time as the first film, but a bit more than a lot of the sequels, too. :yes
Also, Michael Tavera (http://www.michaeltavera.com/wp-content/uploads/pdfs/Resume_MichaelTavera_Composer.pdf) is composing the soundtrack again by the looks of it (top of third page on his resume). :DD

-
Wow! :wow Thanks for the information, somerandomfangirl! This certainly sheds some more light on the upcoming film. An increasingly likely release date of late 2015 and a new director and producer. I look forward to seeing what they come up with. :yes
-
Looking further down Michael Tavera's resume, I'm a little worried. Sure, he gave us some good songs for the sequels, but I have a hard time forgiving a certain one in the last movie. *shudders at the remembrance of the one that shall not be named* Let's hope he's at least learned from THAT mistake.
The rest do seem promising so far. There's still the question of who is/are the writer(s) though. Hopefully they picked someone good.

Wait...what are you talking about? He only does the score, not the songs.
BTW, where are the "clean" musical clips? They were removed from his website and only some are on youtube.
Why they won't just release them already is beyond me! :confused
-
Well, I'm inactive for a while and come back to this news, haha.
Anyway, based on how Alpha & Omega 4: The Legend of the Saw Tooth Cave took a bit longer to produce than the first two sequels to Alpha & Omega and was a huge improvement over all of the original films, I have a lot of hope that LBT14 will be a great movie since it's been almost 8 years since the last LBT movie was made and this is just announced not too long ago.
Eight year wait for any official announcement and hopefully it'll be worth our wait. Also, even though LBT is no longer my primary interest (that's Aliens and the Alpha & Omega movies) I will watch this as soon as it's released. And hopefully that we do see TV-series only characters like Ruby, Red Claw, Screech, Thud, and of course another film featuring Chomper finally.
-
I've only just now learned of this information. It would have been helpful if there was an announcement posted on this.
-
Agreed. There should be a new official LBT14 topic since it's basically been confirmed that the sequel in question is already being produced. Came back to this forum when I heard the news also. :)

whoops my computer only said there were 3 pages to this topic. :slap
any news yet? its been a month. i wonder when the trailer will be released.
-
The last couple pages have some information. I forget about when the announcement was made. One thing I recall is that the movie will have Bron in it and something about Littlefoot needing to find him. Not too much was revealed yet.
-
There isn't any new information about the movie right now but keep an eye on this thread, it'll be updated as soon as somebody discovers new information :yes
-
Maybe someone can make a topic on ideas about the plot? :)
-
I think such a thread exists somewhere but it's most likely buried by all these other threads a certain member has been posting here lately...
-
well then...who will be the main antagonist? Will it be Redclaw, Screech and Thud? Or maybe Sharptooth is still alive and he is revealed his new real name? Or maybe Crusher/Orange-Brown Sharptooth and the other 2 sharpteeth from LBT X. Sorry I had to use the fan name! :lol:
Crusher
He seemed to have some sort of rivalry with Bron. Ya know, how he bit Bron's leg, then recovered a few minutes later and called in 2 other Sharpteeth. Then he attacked Bron right after? Maybe he will return, or maybe he is just one of those other random Sharpteeth from the other movies...Here Is Crusher (http://landbeforetime.wikia.com/wiki/Orange-Brown_Sharptooth)
-
I'm wondering if this movie was created just to give the series a finale. In short, this will be the last one. I just keep getting that feeling. Does anyone else get that feeling?
-
Unlikely. We cannot know of course (same as most LBT 14 topics it remains speculative at this point), but I don't think they would dig out the franchise for sentimental reasons to give it a final. Economic interests play a role and I suppose there is a good chance that all the efforts to reanimate a franchise after a long hiatus may intended to be more than just a final epitaph.
-
I hope you are right, Malte, and this is not just a single movie they make but there's more to come... :yes
-
Let's hope they start making movies again every year or two. :rolleyes:
-
Yeah I severely doubt that LBT 14 will be the last in the franchise. It's been 8 years since 13 came out. Why make a new one after all that time just to end it? Therefore I am certain there will be more after 14. But then again I could be wrong
-
It probably depends on whether they can make profit with LBT 14 or not.
-
Yeah, if they don't make much money from this one, that's it. :unsure:
-
I wonder who will be voicing the narrator, Mr. Three-Horn and Grandpa Longneck for this film. Won't be the same without Kenneth Mars and John Ingle though :(
-
and will Frank Welker voice the sharpteeth? (if there are any, probably)
-
Nice to see they'll bring Bron back. We need more of him. And hopefully Kiefer Sutherland will be available to reprise his role
-
Just watched LBT X last night. The ending made me cry. :'( Wow, Bron can't stop Crusher. He got bit on the leg by Crusher. He's really weak. If Pat never managed to help it would not have been good.
-
Some more official LBT 14 news guys. It's up on IMDB.com and scheduled for this year. It's subtitle is Journey of the Heart. And it looks like we've got a new voice actor playing Littlefoot again. The IMDB page is here if you wanna check it out!

That's what I think too. The "but stay tuned" says it all
But there's nothing official yet, let's remember that :)
-
michael tavera is reprising his role as composer according to tlbt wiki. it also says production began in late 2013? That's a while, if it's real.

That would be cool, that is if she either doesn't sound older or if the Gang is more mature. If LBT 11 gave an indication, Littlefoot could be a late bloomer in puberty, you know, like the one poor soul who barely has peach fuzz while his male buddies are jacked up on testosterone😁.
Anndi hasn't aged a wink, man is she blessed. I can only hope to still look twenty in ten years😊.
Stupid typos. That's a smartphone for ya😛.

I'm pretty sure Cera will sound the same from before. If Anndi is indeed voicing her again
-
I take that as "Anndi is going to voice her again, probably" :yes She got kinda defensive in that comment which might indicate she's gonna do Cera again...
-
I can't really say she's definitely going to voice Cera again, but I guess we'll have to wait and see. ;)
-
I really hope they DO acknowledge that Chomper and Ruby were there or else explain why they aren't. Otherwise, I'm going to miss those two.
-
This is some really exciting news if it's true. Until I hear anything official however, I'm not going to get my hopes up. This still could be a hoax. Unlikely with all the evidence, but any number of things could happen that makes Universal scrap the movie before it's released.
One thing's for sure though. I'm going to actually buy this next movie. I normally pirate movies before I buy them because I don't want to waste money on crap movies. Unfortunately I only buy like 1 movie a year because 99% of them are so terrible I wouldn't buy them even if they were $1. But I want to support the series.
I just hope they release it in Blu-Ray (1080p) quality. Maybe even 4k later on. But I'm betting it's just going to be a crappy DVD. But if they release it in Blu-Ray or 4k, it will be the FIRST movie in decent quality. DVD's were acceptable in 2005 and even in 2007 when LBT 13 was released. But come on Universal! It's 2015 now! You've gotta keep up with the times!
LOL. I just had a thought. If they actually release this movie on Blu-Ray, I'll actually have to install a Blu-Ray player in my computer. Maybe I can buy it digitally somewhere though. But if it's DRM infested, I'll pass. I want to actually OWN the content that I purchase. *Sigh.* It's so much easier to pirate than to buy legitimately.
So I basically have two choices:
1. Buy the Blu-Ray and a Blu-Ray player and rip it into an MKV file.
2. Buy it digitally and remove the DRM (not an easy thing to do, let me tell you!)
I can't wait to get new screenshots and design new images for thelandbeforetime.org and here on the forums. That is, assuming the quality is better than a DVD. Otherwise we're stuck in the early 2000's with the quality of images we can have.
-
I hope they still make DVD versions as I don't have a Blue-Ray player on my computer or at home! Maybe Chomper has one.......
-

If you are referring to me the answer is no. I do not have any Blue - Ray. Also the more time that goes by the more excited I get for LBT 14 :)

I've been looking at the Twitter accounts for the voice actors recently. Felix, Rob and Anndi tweet regularly, and Aria tweets sometimes. Couldn't find a Twitter account for Jeff though. None of them have been talking about the movie recently, but Anndi just mentioned she works a lot from home here: http://www.anndi.com/blog/?p=419 (http://www.anndi.com/blog/?p=419).
I'm inclined to think that Anndi's voicing Cera again because there wasn't another new actress in that picture with Felix, Aria and Jeff (the rest of the speaking GoF), so I'm guessing she probably sent in at least some of her lines from home. And I agree with Ducky 123's take on that other Anndi post too. :)

According to Linkedin, this animation production checker started her work last September and ended this February.
https://www.linkedin.com/pub/teri-mcdonald/9/1a6/220 (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/teri-mcdonald/9/1a6/220)
Seems like some progress is getting made! It also seems like most of the movies she worked on have 2D animation. :D

Oh so it looks like it is stilling going to be mostly 2D animation.
Thank God for that.
-
So the film is retaining it's 2D animation, that's really cool. Not a lot of shows or animated movies are doing that these days.
-
Well spotted! :exactly That's definitely good news!
-
Interesting to note that a new "Curious George" movie is about to be released straight-to-DVD in a couple of months that this checker appeared to have worked on as well. That being said, I wonder if that DVD in particular will come with a trailer for the new LBT movie...? Depends on if its ready, I guess, though I have my doubts.

Don't know how to say this..... When you click on the link there should be a thing called "posts to page" and there was a person who mentioned how excited he was for LBT 14. Naturally there were comments that came along with it. The point I'm trying to make is we might get more info in the summer.
Sorry I can't directly give you the info. Just click the link and go on from there
:)

Took me a bit to find it but now I did. Allow me to quote what has been said :)
User:
Felix Avitia You know, I am REALLY excited that a new Land Before Time is coming out later this year (or perhaps going to be released early next year)! I am saying this, because ALL of the Land Before Time movies and the show have been a HUGE part of my childhood! However, I do have a few questions for you: Is the new LBT movie going to be 2D or 3D animated? How long is the movie going to be? And lastly, do you want to tell us any more details of the plot and characters of this new Land Before Time movie?
Felix Avitia:
Hi! I can't really say anything more about the plot but I really like the story! They are still animating right now and I may do some ADR later this year when they finish it. So excited about LBT 14 and can't wait to see it too!
User:
Felix Avitia: Me neither!
User:
Felix Avitia: Could you please tell me what animation technique is being made for this new LBT film? Is it going to be similar to the older sequels or the newer sequels of The Land Before Time series? Or is it going to be 3D animated, like Toy Story?
Felic Avitia:
I'm not sure. I will ask if and when I see them again. It was originally planned to go straight to DVD.
User:
Felix Avitia: What animation studio is making the new Land Before Time movie? Besides, are you 100% sure that the new LBT film is coming out?
Felix Avicia:
Universal Animation was the production company. I was told they are drawing it frame by frame. Yes XIV will be coming out at the end of this year or early next year. That's all I know so far. Hopefully summer I will know more.
User:
Felix Avitia: Thanks!
Definitely going to keep an eye on his facebook page ;)
-
Thanks Ducky123 :)
-
I hope the songs will be good.
-
Same here. With the movie's potentially serious tone, I wouldn't be surprised if there was at least one slow song in the mix. But, considering the styles of music that vary, you never know what to find. :yes
I'm also hoping for completely different songwriters than the two cabaret girls that we've had in much of the movies, but as long as Ms. McBroom's lyrical content doesn't further degrade, I wouldn't mind having their company again.
-
I asked Anddi Mcafee on her Twitter if she would voice Cera again and she said "There's a new movie coming out? ;)" She obviously knows there is one since I'm not the first person to ask.. But what does that mean? I really hope she voices Cera, Cera sounds so good as her.

There are some updates on this site too. Since the first time Journey of the Heart was mentioned on this page, there has been another commenter who talked about Journey of the Heart and a couple of other things and she replied to everything that was not Journey of the Heart related and nothing that was.
The same commenter also posted two times since, both exclusively about Journey of the Heart, and Anndi didn't reply to either of those posts.
Sounds like she's in to me. :)
-
We'll know more about Journey Of The Heart in time :)
The wait is going to be a killer though :lol
-
I hope the songs will be good.
One thing I take as a mildly good sign in regards to songs was this Facebook post from Felix Avitia:
"Learned and performed two of three songs for "The Land Before Time XIV" yesterday, as the lead character "Little Foot"... after the recording session, a Producer and the Music Writer/Composer handed over this real Grammy and applauded saying, "No doubt that one day you will be holding one of these!" Shocked and very honored they said that... Better sing the last song great now! Lol. Recording the last song for the movie next month. Great memories! Thanks for all your support!!"
I have a hard time imagining anyone who listened to a really bad song reacting like that with a straight face, no matter how good a singer Felix Avitia is. Granted, one of those people was the songwriter, but still...
-

Yeah I read that too. Sounds like the songs might be good. :)
-
I also got a strong opinion that the plot for this movie will be more mature than some of the previous sequels. It involves Littlefoot's father Bron so.........
Can't wait for more news :)

Depending on the work you do, sometimes you are sworn to secrecy on a project until a press release is made official. My type of career hits similar walls at times, especially if the story going around involves an accident or death. No comments can be made, especially to the media, until the family has been notified and an investigation is completed. I can sympathize with someone like Anndi, especially with the curious questions😉.
We will all know in due time. Until then, it's all speculation😎.

Yeah, I think you're right about the secrecy part of the project until the announcement, especially since Ducky's voice actress said she shouldn't have said anything about it in her interview ;)
Also of another note, Universal seems to be preparing for the release already. They've just re-released a new version of the original in February, as well as all of the previous sequels in "4 Movie Family Fun Packs" within the past year or so. Hope this brings in some new (and old) fans!

Come On Universal, Don't do a generic Sharptooth!
-
^I'm personally hoping for a new villian myself.
-
^How about a leafeater villain? An evil longneck or an evil three-horn? Or maybe it could just be a sharptooth but one who is on par with the original :exactly
-
Either Redclaw who's done some training so he's actually a threat or a new (named) villain. Wouldn't like a generic Sharptooth either...
-
Either Redclaw who's done some training so he's actually a threat or a new (named) villain. Wouldn't like a generic Sharptooth either...
Or the Orange-Brown Sharptooth from X, because it is the only one that Bron fought. Redclaw would be cool too.
-
Yeah, I feel like a more substantial villain too...I kind of like the idea of a twist villain, perhaps like chomperrules1993 was suggesting, a leaf-eater. Maybe someone that looks friendly on the surface but is truly evil underneath. Perhaps someone who knew Bron for a long time? That would be quite a change, especially from the later sequels.
Of course, I also hope for a really good sharptooth villain too. But preferably, either a really dangerous sharptooth (like Movie 1's), one that's really clever, or one with a motive that isn't only "I am hungry. I want to eat." I like the Crusher idea Hypnobrai was suggesting for that reason. ;)

Yeah, I kinda go back and look at this scene again and again, and then I get that gut feeling that this sharptooth would be the main antagonist. And if he appears, do you think the other 2 sharpteeth will appear as well? That would be TROUBLE for Bron, since he could not even fight Crusher easily.

Ok I found out that Jim Cummings was the voice of King Trition in The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning, a character who was originally voiced by the late Kenneth Mars. So I watched a few clips of the 3rd Little Mermaid movie on Youtube so I could see how well Cummings voiced the character and though it didn't sound the same as it did in the 1st two films it did sound ok. So Jim Cummings might be a good voice for Grandpa Longneck in the new LBT. That's just my opinion though...... :exactly
Edit: BTW I'm not confirming that Jim Cummings will be the new voice for Grandpa Longneck just that he wouldn't sound that bad as Grandpa Longneck

I think he sounds pretty good too...while not quite Kenneth Mars, he has a good dignified voice that seems well-suited for the character. Plus, considering his versatility, I think he'd be well up to the job.
Also, if anyone is curious, here's a website with side by side comparisons of Kenneth Mars' and Jim Cummings' Triton

What my question is:
Is it going to feel different with the new voice-actors? Is Littlefoot going to sound different? Or do you think he/other characters will sound similar to their previous voice-actors.

We don't know how many characters have new voice actors
I'm going to assume that most of them will have the same voice actors from past sequels.
As for Littlefoot sounding different...... I don't know

Ok here's a video that features Felix Avitia (the new voice actor for Littlefoot)
You guys tell me if you think he sounds like Littlefoot, I honestly think he sounds pretty good as Littlefoot

You guys tell me if you think he sounds like Littlefoot, I honestly think he sounds pretty good as Littlefoot
He sounds good to me too... he sounds just the right age and sounds appropriately bright and innocent. I'm pretty satisfied with most of Littlefoot's voice actors, though Scott McAfee is my favorite.
Assuming, the rest of the cast reprises their roles, I think most of the character voices will be just fine. The one character I'm a little worried about in voice acting is Topsy. John Ingle had such a distinctive performance of a hard-edged yet fatherly character, and I'm worried that the new voice actor might not be able to handle that balance as well. Still, there are plenty of good voice actors out there, so I still have my hopes up.
-
We can wait and see. I'm sure whoever he is he can do a good job, especially if he has some experience acting and has seen the movies or will see them before he did the audio.

Yeah you're probably right :yes
-
Yes I'm pretty sure Felix Avitia will do fine as the new voice for Littlefoot.
Littlefoot VA wise is the character I have least fuss over as they have always used a kid actor to voice him. The only films were I've had problems with his voice is the 9th film were his VA is clearly starting to go through puberty and there for forcing to sound high pitched. And the 11th movie were he's poorly acted in some scenes. Though my personal favourite Littlefoot VA's are his 1st and 2nd "Gabriel Damon and Scott McAfee)
While I'm at it, as it's pretty much been confirmed that their still hiring Anndi McAfee to voice Cera.... Instead of ranting and raving about it and pretty much repeat what I've said in other topics.
I'll just show this gif to represent my reaction to this.

Felix' voice suits Littlefoot very well. He is an excellent choice and, apparently, also a good singer.
Yes, I'm also pretty sure that Anndi will voice Cera again. I guess it's best not to rant about it indeed. I know you don't like her voice anymore and that's fine :) I'm still okay with it.

Nice find! :D
Of course, the person who posted this may just be speculating (though I think it's highly likely too) and counting their hatchlings before they hatch, but who knows, maybe this person knows something we don't! ;)

Yeah it probably is just speculation
Still I felt it was interesting news to share :)
-

Yeah, it is! :D. Official or not, this was the first update I've seen about Journey of the Heart for a long time! I'm still hoping for that Curious George movie to have a trailer!
-
Great to see Grandma reprising her role! :yes
Anndi McAfee seems to be listed there as well so it is to be assumed that she'll voice Cera again yes
-
Oh yes will be good to have grandma long neck with the same voice. Also I wonder if Ducky and Petrie's mum will have the same VA reprise her role?
-
^Tress Macnville? (Sorry can't spell the name)
She most likely will..... we'll have to wait and see :exactly
-
I don't believe you can exactly rely on IMDb for information, so I am not anticipating VA news just yet. We more than likely will have to wait until official info comes up. ;)

its in the google search for lbt 14 too for some reason.
-
Hey, nice nugget of information you dug up☺!
I know I said it before, but I'll say it again: Anndi and Aria look good☺. It's nice to have good genes...I still get carded and I'm going on 29...and to think that makes me feel good says a lot😁. I hope their sounds haven't aged, although it happens to all of us.
-
If ever I find clear official sources regarding Miram Flynn voicing Grandma Longneck or any other LBT 14 news that were not known yet I'll be sure to post it here as I'm sure you all would too :yes
-
^ Cool! I'd be thrilled to see this confirmed!
Also, one (very) minor note to share with everyone, which might be nothing but...
If you would have typed in www.landbeforetime.com earlier this year, you would have gotten a page like this as your result.
https://web.archive.org/web/20150423230337/...nd-before-time/ (https://web.archive.org/web/20150423230337/http://www.universalstudiosentertainment.com/the-land-before-time/)
Type that address in now, however, and it takes you straight to the main Universal Pictures Home Entertainment page.
That's all it is, but it is a change from earlier this year...maybe it's a sign of bigger changes to that address to come!
-
^Perhaps more information on LBT 14 will be on the possibly updated website? Maybe even a trailer? We'll have to wait and see :exactly
-
I'm just going to say this. To me, Anndi McAfee IS Crea! There's just no one else I can see doing the role these days. You can get the greatest voice actor ever, and I would STILL choose Anndi McAfee over the great voice actor. It's also the same with Aria as Ducky.
Disagree about that all you want! I'll support the role they have until the end.
-
^I agree
I wonder when and if a trailer will be released? I'm speculating between June to August. Maybe September or October at the latest
-
^I agree

Yeah, I'm guessing in that range too. If the trailer is ready by then, I imagine it would be on the Curious George III: Back to the Jungle disc since it is also a direct-to-video film from Universal Animation Studios. That movie's release date is June 23.

Great find! With the acronyms rephrased into words, I think she's saying
"Aw thanks! Voice over artists sign non-disclosure agreements and can say nothing about projects until the studio decides so......"
Seems like she's confirming what we've been thinking before. Looks like we'll just have to wait until Universal announces. ;)

I agree! I love Cera and she just isn't the same without Anndi Mcafee voicing her.. In movies 1-4, Cera sounded like too much of a brat. Now she sounds more tough, proud, and a bit stuck up, which is more like her character that I love haha

Though this is likely still speculation, this Wikipedia page says that Jim Cummings is voicing Grandpa Longneck.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_(series) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Land_Before_Time_(series))
I would still suggest being careful with Wikipedia however-once I saw someone claim that Linda Gary was playing Grandma Longneck in Journey of the Heart on there, so...
However, I also found another page on Retrojunk saying that Jim Cummings would be playing Grandpa. Though this page is at least a couple years old, Grandpa Longneck was the last role on Jim Cummings' long role list, so maybe this page was edited since it was originally posted.
https://www.retrojunk.com/article/show/4015...d-our-childhood (https://www.retrojunk.com/article/show/4015/the-man-behind-our-childhood)
If this turns out to be true, I'd be very happy! For one, Grandpa would still be in, and two, Jim Cummings has certainly had a versatile career, and I think he did a nice job with Kenneth Mars' Triton too. I'm also impressed with his ability to mimic other voice actors, like when he substituted for Jeremy Irons in The Lion King's "Be Prepared". :)
-
Yeah I've known about the claim on Wikipedia for some time now. But we all know how unreliable Wikipedia can be sometimes
I however have no idea as to the reliability of retrojunk though......
But I am fairly confident that Jim Cummings is the new voice for Grandpa Longneck but until it's confirmed it's all speculation :exactly

Yup. Totally agree. I don't understand where all the hate is coming from with Anndi's voice. I think it's great.

This isn't much but LBT X and others were aired on Teletoon Retro yesterday in a marathon. Is this a coincedence, or are they secretly celebrating the coming release of the new movie? This is the first time I seen any of the movies on TV in YEARS. At least 4 years.

I don't want to take this off topic, but another Tremors film is being made? :o Well than, this year is becoming very interesting for everyone. :yes
-
everything is all coming together isn't it?
-
May is almost over, perhaps we'll get more OFFICIAL lbt 14 info sometime in June? I'm just speculating of course :)
-
Hopefully we will :). Out of curiosity, I did some investigating to try to figure out approximately when LBT stuff will be released, based on the past history of the LBT sequels as well as the promotional pattern of the new Curious George movie.
*NOTE: All of this is pure speculation and observation; none of this is official news*
So one thing I found out that all the Land Before Time Sequels (except LBT 12's early Australian release) were released on Tuesdays, as is the upcoming Curious George movie, so I'm guessing Journey of the Heart will be released on a Tuesday as well.
Though the last three Land Before Time movies were released (not counting the Australian release date for 12) in different months (11 in January, 12 in February, and 13 in November), 2-10 were all released in December. So since most of the movies were released on December, I'll be treating December as the release month (though it could easily be any of the surrounding months).
The first nine sequels were all released in the first half of December, but varied on whether they were the first or second week- 6, 7, 8 and 10 were released on the first Tuesday, while 2, 3, 4, 5 and 9 were released on the second Tuesday, so there's basically an even split between the first two weeks. If the pattern of the first nine sequels returns this year, the release date of Journey of the Heart would be either December 1 or December 8.
Next, I looked at the patterns of the upcoming Curious George movie from the same company to see how many days before the movie release date was key information from Curious George released. So here's what I got:
Feb 19 (124 days before release): First Twitter mention of the new Curious George movie. Picture of DVD cover and release date mentioned.
https://twitter.com/GoCuriousGeorge (https://twitter.com/GoCuriousGeorge)
Mar 5 (110 days before release): First promotional image on Facebook of the new Curious George movie. More promotional images would be released soon afterward.
https://www.facebook.com/curiousgeorge (https://www.facebook.com/curiousgeorge)
Apr 7 (77 days before release): First trailer uploaded on Facebook. The trailer was basically an excerpt of one of the movie's songs. Universal uploaded it on YouTube three days later.
https://www.facebook.com/curiousgeorge (https://www.facebook.com/curiousgeorge)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgM0KntNDyQ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgM0KntNDyQ)
May 4 (50 days before release): Another trailer uploaded on YouTube. This one is a short and general 30-second trailer.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTJ1BRzFUU0...8lhqEVZv9QIi2bh (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTJ1BRzFUU0&list=PL5kPGgBxjJw5fNXQT18lhqEVZv9QIi2bh)
May 21 (33 days before release): Many Curious George videos uploaded on Universal Home Entertainment's YouTube page. The same trailer from May 4 was uploaded again, along with nine sneak peeks.
https://www.youtube.com/user/nbcunient/videos (https://www.youtube.com/user/nbcunient/videos)
May 27 (27 days before release): Today
June 23: Release date
So, if the same promotional pattern occurs with Journey of the Heart and if Journey of the Heart ends up being released in December, we should be seeing something like this (first day listed is with a release on December 1, second is with a release on December 8)
Jul 30/Aug 6 (124 days before release): Twitter announcement, release date revealed, DVD cover shown
Aug 13/Aug 20 (110 days before release): First Facebook promotional image (with more to come later).
Sep 15/Sep 22 (77 days before release): First (song) trailer posted on Facebook.
Oct 12/Oct 19 (50 days before release): Second trailer uploaded
Oct 29/Nov 5 (33 days before release): Sneak peeks on Universal Pictures Home Entertainment channel.
Dec 1/Dec 8: Release date

NOTE I posted this comment before the names were removed from the WIKIA page..
Oh so hopefully judging by that it looks as though Tria might just be in the upcoming film. (and Tricia too hopefully) I am worried that they might have forgotten that Cera now has a step mum and half sister. Or worse written them out.
-
I removed those new cast members from the Wikipedia page since there's no real proof yet. I honestly doubt Jim Cummings would voice Grandpa Longneck, also.
Most of them were believable, but I saw no reason for it to be there if there's no proof yet.

Good post :)! I agree with your process opinions, they've probably done most of the rough animating and are probably focusing in on perfecting the movie now. The relatively long production time of this movie is a really encouraging for quality! I don't think we're quite at trailer time yet, but we're getting there, and we're probably about halfway to release now from when the news was first broken :D .

-
I took the liberty of removing them. I will wait for official proof on who the voice actors are before I believe in any such news. Speaking of which, I wonder if they recruited more celebrity talents for this movie, and if so, I wonder who they could be...

I think that, for now, it's probably best to keep away from Wikipedia and IMDb until we hear official news. People like to edit things on there to fool other people or because they're convinced they're right. I think we should just keep an eye on the web pages of the confirmed or highly likely to be confirmed voice actors, Universal's web pages, and of course, Curious George 3. I'm half-expecting a teaser to end up on there, though it might still be a little bit early for that yet. I'm expecting more official news later in the summer.

I'm sorry I just have to share this..... The person who added the "new" information must of been from the future :lol
-
Ok it's been fixed now....
Anways Curious George 3 will be released this Tuesday. Think we'd get a lbt 14 teaser or something? Probably not but.....

This most likely isn't real but.....
Thought I'd share it with y'all anyways :)
-
Yeah, this logo isn't official. Still, it's cool to see any logo at all! :D It kind of reminded me of this fanmade logo for the original Land Before Time.

This logo and this link make me curious as to when the cover art of Journey of the Heart and (hopefully) official character promo artwork pics will be released!
-
And If Bron gonna be in the movie, What About Shorty? Ain't that an obvious automatic thing or what? I know nobody mentioned him, and the other characters, they only mentioned three. Though I know it's still in progress as we speak & Chomper & Ruby do got explanations to throw at us bout how they got from the island & Red Claw, which should be the movie's secondary plot.

More than likely Shorty will appear, especially considering that Bron is his father after all.
-
I agree Shorty will most likely appear. We'll know soon enough :)
Though I have a feeling we won't be getting any news during this month but maybe I'm just being negative
-
I'm sure we'll hear something by the end of the summer. I don't know if Curious George 3 had a teaser of any sort on it (as I said, might be a bit too early yet), but if it did Universal will probably end up releasing it on YouTube soon enough. They seem to upload stuff every week or so, so I'll keep an eye on their YouTube channel over the next few weeks.
Speaking of, Curious George 3 has received some good reviews so far! That gives me a bit more hope that LBT 14 will be pretty good. :DD
Also, it's very likely Shorty will appear. They wouldn't just forget about him after LBT 10 AND the TV series. It hasn't been confirmed, but it's almost a given really. He is Bron's adopted son after all.

Yeah you're probably right
I too will check Universal's youtube for any official news as well. (Especially since I subscribed to the channel)
-
Great idea about checking Universal's YouTube page! I just checked it and they just put up two new trailers for a Barbie movie and a Thomas and Friends movie. So chances are if the Curious George DVD included any trailers, it would have included those and not Journey of the Heart's.
Both of those movies will come out on September 8, so maybe we'll get a trailer for Journey of the Heart then. After all, by that time, we'd be getting close to the usual early December time LBT sequels that are released.
-
I'm also subscribed to their Youtube page as well. I'll keep an eye out for anything of interest.
-
I will also be checking to see if LBT has a new website on a regular basis as of now it's still "error file not found"
-
Sometimes when I go to Youtube to search for some potential lbt 14 news I keep seeing videos like "Land Before Time XIV: Journey Of The Heart watch full movie here"

I'm not sure it's official, however going back, the production for the fourteenth film did start sometime in 2014. I liked the page last year coincidentally, but didn't notice an increase in activity until late last year and into this year.

What was that video? It was taken down.

It was a fake video basically. I guess someone reported it and it was taken down.

I am working on LBT 14 now. Such a great franchise!

Also good that the fake vid was taken down

Just to revisit this since some have asked why this post remains up despite some recent news in the LBT-verse, the last few posts about fake videos and all that is exactly why we're not removing it. Everything will be changed and taken care of when confirmed information is presented. :exactly

I have a feeling whoever maintains that group, probably doesn't know any information about the fourteenth film, other than what's on Wikipedia. Then again, I could be wrong.

You might be right.
I speculate we won't be getting solid information until late july maybe even mid july if we're lucky.... Oh and btw lbt still doesn't have a website

Someone edited the Wikipedia page on lbt 14 and removed the cast members including the confirmed ones. It's probably for the best though.

Most likely untrue.
However a blueray release wouldn't be so bad :yes
-
Hmm. That release date just doesn't feel legit. From my experience, release dates for movies is on a Tuesday and the one shown falls on a Thursday. It's not always the case, but that's rare usually.
However, if it does prove to be legit, it does confirm Rob Paulsen on there! Won't be surprised if that role is Spike. (Let's face it! He IS Spike!)
-
Totally not true in the slightest. :neutral Still waiting for official info...
-
That just looks like a placeholder date to me. I'm not familiar with movie release dates, but with video games, retailers will often set the games release date as the last day of the year the game is coming out on if they don't actually have a confirmed date yet.
so probably a placeholder date, I'd presume.
-
I had a feeling it wasn't offical. But I wasn't too sure. Although if this film does come out this year instead of next year then maybe the middle of next month will be the start of offical lbt 14 updates (just trying to bring postive hope here)
-
On the other hand, if it's getting delayed, hopefully it's because they actually care about the movie, and want to get it right.
Not saying it's getting delayed. Just saying something nice if it does.
-
I just found this link that has Felix saying the movie will be released in 2016. Can't tell when this was posted however.

Wow they must really be trying to make the new movie really worth watching. It's close to August now and there's still no offical lbt 14 news..... I believe we can safely assume that this movie will be very good indeed. :)

Yeah, the project time looks like a good sign! We're just about to enter (according to Davis Doi's LinkedIn) the seventeenth month of production. For comparison, Wikipedia says LBT 12 took a total of about sixteen months between production and release, and they were preparing the TV series during that time as well.
This reminds me of that analysis of Curious George news patterns I did a couple of months ago. If Journey of the Heart's news pattern is like Curious George 3's and we're looking at a release date in early December, we should be beginning to see info coming up real soon now.
The first official news of Curious George came out on February 19, and its release date was on June 23. If (and a big if) LBT 14 follows the exact same news pattern and it's release date would be in early December, then there should be an announcement of LBT 14 in the next couple of weeks.
That first Curious George announcement was a Twitter post which also included the movie's release date as well as the DVD cover. Of course this is all speculation, but if news on Journey of the Heart follows the exact same pattern of news on Curious George 3, we may be getting some cool stuff sometime soon! :D

Cool info! I just skimmed his profile, and he looks like another one of those voice actors like Jim Cummings, Rob Paulsen and Jeff Bennett who have had lots of voice-acting roles. Judging by the fact that he played characters from Captain Hook to Gus (the mouse from Cinderella) to Count Dooku (Star Wars) to Zeus to Grumpy, he seems to portray a good variety of characters, some of which may be good experience for playing Topsy.
-
Corey Burton is indeed a very well-known voice actor in the industry who has done a lot of work (mainly for Disney), and I imagine this would be a good role for him. :yes However, I'd rather wait for the truth before assuming anything. Besides, he's never been in any of the prior films, so I don't really know. Nevertheless, he is a really good fit in my opinion.
-
^ That's great to hear that he'd be a great fit!
Also, this might be nothing, but I went to www.landbeforetime.com and got that service unavailable page twice today. It went back to the 404 page upon being refreshed, but that service unavailable page hasn't come up much before on my screen, so...

Were you able to watch it. I want to make sure this is the real deal

Interesting. The trailer announces LBT 14 as "Journey of the Brave" rather than "Journey of the Heart". Another thing I noticed was that there was a short glimpse of Chomper and Ruby (so there seems to be at least a reference to them) but almost every scene (including all those which appear to show the "journey part" of the story) shows the traditional five only.

No, but seriously lol if you have Adobe Flash Player enabled in your browser (chrome://plugins, etc) and that it's 18.0+ and uh, I assume having the actual programs on your PC. I myself have Adobe Flash Player 16 PPAPI, Adobe Flash Player 18 ActiveX, and Adobe Flash Player 18 NPAPI because some programs use different versions
on google chrome, if you click the three bars at top right and then go to About google chrome I think that may update it (if not in chrome://plugins, an address)

Oh, well there's gotta be somebody somewhere or someplace you can watch it before youtube xD. Parents, a roommate possibly, even library or school or college library etc
Depends how desperate @o@

My thoughts on this ...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvaoeqNLNtM (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvaoeqNLNtM)
I think it looks very promising so far, especially with the 2D animation and the voices!
EDIT: I think we can add Anndi to the official cast list now.
-
Nm I was able to watch it :)
-
Awesome! :) I think that this certainly counts as confirmation. Here are my initial thoughts:
Huh, it looks like they tweaked the title a bit. Ruby and Chomper are seen, but appear to be absent from the main adventure. Although I wonder if that could be intentional in order to not confuse people who hadn't seen the TV series. Or perhaps the Gang of Five actually find Chomper and Ruby in this film.
There are quite a few possibilities there. :yes
-
Also, one thing I noticed is that the scene with Chomper and Ruby probably won't be a flashback because there was snow in the background there, and there was also snow at the beginning of the trailer and another snow scene right before their one.
-
I'm glad Chomper and Ruby are at least in the movie. Also cool that Reba is involved in this. Also I can guarantee that Anndi is the voice of Cera but what about Spike? Is it still Rob Paulsen?
-
OMG I don't believe it! :D well 2 good things I have to say is YEAH Chomper and Ruby are in it! And Spike has the same VA! Also it might just be me, while I know Cera and Ducky have the same the same VAs, their voices sound a little higher maybe they digitally pitched them or something..
-
Well, time to spread this to a few forums I know. I shall also send it to reddit.
It is interesting that the title has changed. It could be a last minute thing, but maybe there's a reason.
From what I heard with the voice actors, I can confirm that the voices of Cera, Ducky and Petrie are the same from the last movie, so that should help settle in old time veterans like myself. Spike didn't even utter anything, so whether or not Rob Paulsen has returned for the role is still up in the air.
Also, it seems to be getting a Digital HD release. I hope for Blu-ray, but I'll take DVD if it doesn't happen.
Anyways, I'll be busy.
See ya later! :wave
-
Spike didn't even utter anything, so whether or not Rob Paulsen has returned for the role is still up in the air.
It's Rob. Spike uttered a grunt on his highlight. ;)
Anyways, I'm honestly feeling rather iffy about this, but it sounds promising enough. Nice to see all the VAs back for sure, and nice to see Chomper and Ruby are (potentially) in this one. Though I didn't expect to see Reba in this movie; quite a surprise there. ;)
Hope to hear more news as they come in.
-
First of all...FEATHERED DINOSAURS I'M SO EXCITED WUUUGHGHG
Second of all...REBA (well, if they got her on board, it can't be TOO bad...)
Thirdly, it doesn't look too bad. The voice acting is pretty nice. Felix doesn't do too bad of a job as Littlefoot. Anndi's definitely in this, which I am so happy about, as well as Rob Paulson with Spike. It's him from the sound of Spike's grunt. Also, Chomper and Ruby! They'll at least be in the movie, even if they're not part of the gang...but at least they're in it. The animation quality looks a bit better than 13 or the TV series to me. All in all, it seems pretty promising. Kind of weird title tweak though. But, aslong as it's the same movie I'm cool with it.
-
I've also noticed, in the clip of Chomper and Ruby, Chomper has 2 fingers on each hand like he did in the 2nd movie.:) like a real T-rex
-
This is a great thing to wake up to on my day off! :DD
I really wanna know what role Ruby and Chomper are gonna play in this movie too, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. It's hard to get much information from half a second of screen time. :p
-
Well, I was expecting something fairly soon, but I certainly wasn't expecting this! Woah! :wow
I'm going to say my thoughts and the things I noticed in the trailer:
First of all, it looks fairly promising still. I'm happy that the animation is still in it's good ol' 2D form. It's nice to hear that just about all of the LBT veterans are back to voice the Gang of Five (excluding Littlefoot, of course). Saying that, Felix Avitia has done a pretty great job, he really does sound like Littlefoot. :DD
The animation looks like it's progressed a little bit. It seems a bit sharper than before, and the backgrounds look a little brighter and more detailed, and overall the animation looks like it'll be an improvement over the TV series and the last couple of LBT movies. The characters seem to look more or less the same, which is good. They gave the new carnivores feathers, though. Awesome!
I'll be honest, I doubted that Chomper and Ruby would be in this film, so I'm surprised to see them. I do wonder what their role will be in this film, especially since they don't seem to be travelling with the main five in the rest of the trailer. Also, well done animators for giving Chomper two fingers again! Well spotted, DalekDino!
The baby swimmers are adorable! I'm guessing that they might be Ducky and Spike's new siblings?
I haven't actually heard of Reba, but it looks like she'll be voicing our new character for this film. I wasn't expecting a flyer of all things, but she actually looks like a pretty interesting character. I'm assuming she joins the gang to help them look for Bron, and appears to comfort Littlefoot along the way. 'Look for the Light' sounds quite nice from the snippet I've heard so far.
I wonder why Bron ended up going to the fire mountain of all things. It doesn't really seem like a very good place to go, whatever the reason. I wonder if it's anything to do with the snow, although I'm not entirely sure what the connection could be there. I also wonder what happened there that prevented him from coming back. Maybe he got trapped or something? Either way, he needs to stop going off and not coming back. It's becoming a bad habit. :lol
The only thing I'm a little disappointed about it that there appeared to be no sign of Shorty going with the gang, and no sign of him at all. I hope he is still in the film at some point, though.
All in all, it looks pretty good! I don't understand why they changed the title from 'Journey of the Heart' to 'Journey of the Brave' though, it just seems a little weird. Well, we'll just have to wait and see what other news they give us!

In regards to Chomper and Ruby
They did not speak in the trailer (I think Ruby giggled though) so who will be voicing them?
Will Megan Strange resume her role as Ruby? Will she be voiced by someone new? And who will be the new voice for Chomper because it can't be Max Burkholder

Is there any other site with that trailer? My computer can't handle it. It's so slow and doesn't play smoothly and slows down my computer greatly.

^Not as of yet, but I'm sure YouTube will have it up before long. :yes

Since the movie has now been officially announced, I think it is time we move on to a new topic. This topic's name is a bit odd to be discussing this movie on. Go here: http://z7.invisionfree.com/thegangoffive/i...showtopic=14902 (http://www.gangoffive.net/index.php?topic=14537)
