The Party Room / Re: The Land Before Incorrect Quotes
« on: July 01, 2022, 06:44:05 PM »
Funny thing is, I was just looking at making some incorrect quotes the other day, so I'm glad this topic exists. Here's a couple I came up with.

Grandpa: I'll offer you some friendly advice-
Topps: I don't want your advice.
Grandpa: Well, then consider it unfriendly advice.
--
Littlefoot: I just ended a four year relationship.
Cera: Oh, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
Littlefoot: Hm? Oh yeah, I'm fine. It wasn't my relationship.
*Ducky and Petrie fighting across the room*
--
Saro: Hey, are you free on Friday? Like in the evening?
Grandma: Yeah.
Saro: And you?
Grandpa: Umm... yes?
Saro: Great! Because I'm not. You two go out without me. Enjoy your date!
Grandpa: Did he just-

(This is absolutely how they got together don't @ me)
--
Grandma: You are an absolute dork.
Grandpa, singing: Yeah, but I'm your dork!
Grandma: *sighs* Yeah, you're my dork.
--
Etta: Where are your parents?
Littlefoot: What are parents?
Etta: That’s just about the saddest thing I ever heard get said.
--
Grandpa: I don't know how to tell you this, but... I love you.
Grandma: That's great, dear. Especially considering the fact we've been married for 50 bloody years!
--
Petrie: Uncle, stop! This isn't you, you've gone mad with power!
Pterano: Well of course I have! You ever tried going mad without power?
Pterano: It's boring.
--
Littlefoot: *screams*
Cera: *screams louder to assert dominance*
Ducky: Should we do something?
Petrie: No, me want to see who win this.

Okay I just noticed this topic and I'm going to revive it because I like going around like this:



"Don't let me eat pears! I HATE pears!"

I can't remember if it's an outtake or if was actually in the episode, but I believe this is from Doctor Who when the tenth Doctor is leaving a message to Martha when they're hiding from the family of blood.

Sorry for the late response here.  :oops

But this looks great! Cera's horns have finally grown in and she looks ready to use them! I love the use of markers here too! Great work!  ;)Cera

Welp, I wasn't expecting that.  :rhett_shocked

Good to see Strut has found someone who accepts him for the leaf-lover he is. Also I can't stop laughing at Ozzy and Chomper in the background. This is amazing, and it's great to see you doing some fanart again!

"So... how last minute are you putting in a fanart prompt entry?"

"Yes."

Honestly with the amount of stuff I've had to deal with over the last two months I thought I wasn't going to make it with this one, even though this was probably one of the prompts I was most looking forward to doing. I thought it would be a good opportunity to go back to what was probably my first bit of LBT fanart. It's Throwback Thursday after all!



I mean... this probably doesn't come as a surprise. :lol I have no idea why but I imagine that Grandma was a bit of a sass queen in her youth and Grandpa was a bit of a dork who just didn't know how to deal with it.  :p

'Tis a bit rushed but I'm just glad I managed to get something in on time. I need to get back into doing art on a more regular basis but hopefully this will be a start. Could probably do with a bit more practice before the fight scene prompt.

Character Showcase / Re: The Land Before Time 4 Showcase - June 2022

Oop, thought I already posted here.  :rhett_smile

1) This film touched on some more mature themes compared to some of the other sequels - namely the possibility of Littlefoot again losing a loved one.  How do you feel the tone of this film compared to the previous films in the series up to that point?

For me this is the sequel that has the darkest tone, but to be honest the movies before it, while not as dark, had their own moments of darkness. III especially as it dealt with drought and not only the physical, but psychological consequences of the GV resident going thirsty with the adults turning on each other. And of course there was Cera and her dad nearly getting killed in the fire. So yeah, I'd say III gets pretty close to IV's tone.

Quote
2) This film introduced Ali as a character and, as such, no discussion about this film could avoid this development.  What is your opinion of Ali as a character in the fourth film?

Honestly? I never really cared that much for Ali. She's fine and she had a decent character arc, but I wouldn't put her among my favourite characters.

Quote
3) Looking at some of the old reviews of the fourth film, it appears that Ichy and Dil were polarizing antagonists for some of the professional critics.  How do you feel that these two antagonists compared to previous ones in the series?

No lie, I think these two are hilarious. How they've managed to survive for so long, who knows, but they take arguing like an old married couple to a whole new level and I'm here for it.

But when I found out the crocodile was voiced by Tress MacNeille?  Now whenever the crocodile appears on-screen, I’m gonna shout out the line: “Seymour, the house is on fire!” because both voices had the same energy to be honest.

LOL that makes it even better.

Quote
4) On the original VHS cover of the film, Ichy is depicted as holding a pair of binoculars while watching the kids.  Which begs the question.... where do you think Ichy got those?  Rainbowfaces?  :rainbowThinking

Definitely rainbowfaces.

Silver Screen / Re: Jurassic World: Dominion (2022)
« on: June 26, 2022, 10:38:25 AM »
Okay so I saw it. I set my expectations very low for it, and... honestly? I didn't think it was that terrible.

I will say that it did feel really disjointed and it felt like the film didn't know what the focus on, and then ended up focusing on everything except the thing it should have; having people deal with dinosaurs in the world.

There were some parts I enjoyed (dinosaurs causing carnage never fails to entertain me), and seeing the original cast from the first JP was nice. But it also felt really safe and predictable. That and there were quite a few concepts in there that I feel really could have been expanded on instead of dragging out some other scenes (there was one chase scene in particular that just went on for so long, and as for the Maisie plotline  :rolleyes). On one hand I kind of enjoyed pointing out all of the nostalgic references but on the other I wished they had focused less on that and more on writing a good, engaging story.

I mean at the end of the day I enjoyed it more than Fallen Kingdom which was what I was looking for. But still a lot of wasted potential.

Okay so this teaser for season 5 dropped over a month ago. It releases on July 21st.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSYDSorEULE

More drones... yay...

But it looks like this is the final season of this franchise. I kinda hope that they learn from the mistakes of the last season but while it's in this new environment of high-tech biome stuff... eh, I dunno. I think the threat level from the dinos will be toned down, again, because drones and BRADs and whatever, and also the character reveal at the end... I don't know if he's evil enough to let the kids get hurt now he knows who they are (but then his company did get a child to spy for them so idk I guess anything can happen). I guess we'll wait and see.

That's a shame. I've seen some of the reviews savaging it. The thing I'm hearing the most was that it was kinda slow paced and boring? How can a film about giant monstrous lizards roaming the world and humans trying to cope with living alongside them be boring? Was really hoping Universal would have learned from Fallen Kingdom, but I suppose the only thing they understand these days it that they don't have try with good writing because they'll make loads of money either way. Can someone else have a go at a dinosaur movie?

*Eyes up Jurassic Galaxy* ...No, not like that.

I'm still planning on seeing it maybe next week, but I'll keep my expectations low. Saying that, just had a look at audience reviews and they seem more positive, so who knows? I tend to enjoy some things other people hate so I may enjoy parts of it yet.

Character Showcase / Re: The Land Before Time 3 Showcase - May 2022
« on: May 25, 2022, 12:43:58 PM »
This film was one of the few I didn't see until I was a teenager, same as 11-14. But while I didn't find the later sequels as entertaining, I really enjoyed this one on the first watch. I like that there was a lot of time with Littlefoot and his family. I didn't really take to the bullies (then I suppose I wasn't supposed to :p ) and I don't think there was as much going on as some of the earlier sequels, but I still found it a good watch.

1. Personally yes, I think Topps did have a point. Nobody knew when they would get more water so being tough was what was needed at that time. Even Grandpa said at the start that everyone must only drink what was required to survive, but it seems he softens up a bit when it comes to the children. Topps didn't want to bend any rules so that the water lasted as long as possible and I do kinda agree with that standpoint.

2. It's the fire scene for me.

No worries Jewelstone, pesky life stuff happens to us all.

I have to say I am so looking forward to the next prompt. Think a little throwback is in order.   :bestsharptooth

I mean it should be considered finished haha, I'm just nitpicky as anything when it comes to my stuff.  :lol I've been trying out this more painted look with a couple of other pieces I'll eventually upload. I also have another Shorty sketch I should work on at some point. So much to work on...

I agree with not getting rid of Etta completely. I liked her and all, I just like Shorty more. Maybe she could take Wild Arms' place (although I do have a soft spot for him as well).  :p

Also, is Littlefoot crying? It looks like he has a tear in his eye.  :lfsadface

Yeah, I gotta make it as sad as possible.  :bestsharptooth

Thanks all!
