It just feels a bit strange to do a prequel movie when we already know what'll happen after.
umm, I have to disagree with this statement. I mean, if so, then what's the purpose of ALL prequels?..
A good prequel can be entertaining and important to storyline.

I don't know what kind of prequel Mufasa is, so I can't judge.

I do understand what a prequel is. That doesn't mean I particularly like them. I prefer sequels or stories that take place around the same time as the first.

I'm not too interested in seeing this movie. It just feels a bit strange to do a prequel movie when we already know what'll happen after.

Oof, I feel that. I've had troubles working out Fanfiction.net, and Archive of Our Own and Wattpad can be just plain disgusting at times. :x :neutral I've been to the Land Before Time section on AO3 before...huge mistake. :facepalm

I own a Tumblr blog (right here), (warning for occasional language) and that's where I post my 6teen fanfics these days. If you're okay with Tumblr it's probably my best suggestion. Plus there's all sorts of handy-dandy blogs to help with your writing inspiration. :rainbowwave

Honestly AO3 is the only fanfiction site I'd recommend anyone use. It has a more attentive staff, it has a wide array of features to help you curate your experience and avoid what you don't like, and there's no fear of fics being deleted by the site admins out of the blue. Authors there get to enjoy the relative safety of not having to worry about being sued into the ground, which was a problem before its existence. FF.Net is too antiquated and Wattpad is too delete happy.

Dare I ask?

The thing to remember about AO3 is that it's staunchly anti-censorship. So long as it's legal to write about/create fiction for by US law, it is permitted on AO3. This means you will find some rather...questionable fics. But it has a great set of features to curate your own experience so as long as you know how to use the tagging system, you should be able to avoid fics you don't want to see. Just don't report fics just because you feel icky about them. Not only will that be ignored, but you run the risk of getting permabanned if you keep doing it. Oh and don't harass authors either. Though small, AO3's staff is more attentive than, say, FF.Net and if you break their TOS too many times, you'll also get permabanned.

Nicely drawn. Is this an Alimon? Does s/he have a name? :Tickles

Their name is Flicker.

Very nice. I like the grin in this drawing. At one point I knew some of the differences between the Alimon, but not so sure anymore haha. I think this one was the genderless one or something?

Yes. They're intersex, so neither male nor female, and goes by they/them pronouns.

So, yes. Emails might work. You never know. Certainly people have tried before.

Llyn didn't say emails, though. She said 'snail mail'. Physical letters.

In order to increase your chances of a company at least giving you a quick listen, snail mail is the way to go. Anyone can write an email and send it out. Emails can be deleted, ignored. But with snail mail, there's effort. You have to buy the paper, the stamp, the envelope, write out your message, actually mail it. These are harder to ignore.

So if anyone is set on sending Universal letters regarding a next LBT movie, stick with the snail mail route. Never use email. Not if you really want them to take your message the slightest bit seriously.

Edit: And when you send your snail mail, please be formal and to the point. No need to say anything grandiose or over the top. Remember, this is a major company, not a high school club. Skip the lingo and write to them in a professional manner. You can still express your love for LBT while writing appropriately.

Great art DH! I love the red one. Is it a Troodon?

Thanks! And no, he's an alimon like the other two.
