I personally think a lot of people think a little too highly of LBT 10. It was not an LBT I grew up with and so is less dear to me then the first 9, let alone the pure, dazzling brilliance of the first 3 sequels, but I feel like people think of 10 too highly, cause, "oooh, there's a big eccplise" and "ooo, he meets his dad!"
Seriously? What about all those good times we had with LBT---those first 9 freaking movies---where he didn't have a dad? Huh? Is everyone just gonna forget about that? Is everyone just gonna welcome Bron into the cast after all this time? Well I, for one, am not! <_<
They were trying to make "adventureing" into something exiting and great since it's Littlefoot singing about this huuuuge adventure he's going on! Man, this would be so freaking exiting---IF HE HADN'T BEEN ON A F***ING ADVENTURE IN EACH OF THE PAST 9 SUPERIOR FILMS!!! Also, we got some creepy looking imaginary visuals, showing that the filmmakers clearly wanted to re-create the awesomeness "Big Water" offered but failed miserably.
Also, some people may like the fact that Littlefoot's mother is referenced. I do, for one, since she's rarely mentioned in the sequels. But what? They make her
blue?!! Well F**k the animators for not remembering her color or F**k Bron for being a shitty husband who can't remember the color of his own wife.
The climax was extremely overdone. The whole film was extremely overdone. There were a few good moments, like the scene in the swamp, and the scene where Littlefoot rides on Sue, whom I love, but the whole movie stood out as a whole with the huge dramatic climax ad the huge dramatic ending shot, so individual moments were lost---something even in the worst of times LBT had previously managed to keep control of.
Also there was a whole lot of weird, like the opening sequence---seriously, was whoever made that part...on drugs or soemthing? Even the rainbow faces were mild compared to this.
And then you have the overly emotional ending song, obviously trying to recreate the brilliance of "No one has to be alone". But whereas "No one has to be alone" was pure beautiful, this was overdone...
7 is usually overated too, cause---gues why?---PTERANO'S IN IT!! I originally thought everyone liked him cause he was a bad-turned-good, but really, most just like him cause he's hot. Which, unfortunately, I can understand. Also, Ducky sings,
"Everybody has a little good inside them and
everybody has a little bad" Didn't she just say, "Your uncle isn't as mean as the other flyers. Petrie" I have little doubt she believes the other flyers have absolute zero good in them at all, as was the case with the Sharptooth, Dil, and Ichy and the eggstealers. Hyp and his pals, too, initially.
Which brings me to 3. No one seems to like this one, even though it's superior to every film after 4, and, yes, I'm not afraid to say it---the original. Why does nobody like this one? It's fun, has a good story, nice music, good animation---what isn't there to like about it? Heck, it's my
favorite.
Anyways, have fun posting your thoughts on this.
