Hi everyone! I'm glad this forum is still around. All my previous ones are now gone so it's amazing to see one still going and with some activity still  ( missed these emojis )
I joined 15 years ago

I was looking at the deleted story boards and noticed how much scarier Sharptooth was before. I remember reading that one of the other things  they did besides delete scenes was fixing Sharptooth so it wasn't too scary for kids.

In the story boards he even has bigger teeth, claws, and feet.  I wonder if they even got a chance to animate the original.
Do you guys think the change was good idea?

Just saw a listing of ebay with a Mc Donalds promo of the VHS movie and was wondering if anybody knew anything about it. It says not for resale or rental.

I actually didnt know Mcdonalds sold movies  

I realized how well edited out the sharptooth attack was .

if you notice the scenes that did stay in the movie got flipped so you cant tell Cera and Littlefoot were going back and forth.

now I just hope we can get the part 2 so we can figure out this part

I think the part after the thorn bush had lots of edits cause you can see a lot is missing once Littlefoot mom comes in.

so my guess the biggest edit in the whole movie was the sharptooth and earthquake (not counting the finding the great valley moved to the end)



EDIT: forget everything I said    I realized the clip i watch of the sharptooth scene on youtube was flipped and the correct one fits the storyboard

Heres a picture of the figures I'm looking for

thought it was interesting
someone mentioned in other post how it looks like the tar scene had some scenes skipped

I found this in other post and probabaly think this was in the movie o_O


The picture presented in "The land before time - The illustrated story" is a different one. This is what it says (no translation but English original this time):

"I knew it was you all along!" she said.
Littefoot grinned at her.
"You did?" said Ducky. "But you were screaming so loud."
"I was only acting," Cera shot back. "I wanted those scaly-skins to come come into the cave so I could attack them!"
"Nope, nope, nope," Ducky said shaking her head.
"Oh get out of my way!" Cera yelled. But as she tried to stalk out of the cave, she stuck to the tar monster.
"We really together now!" said Ducky, giggling.
"Yeah, Cera," said Littlefoot. "Now we have to stick together."
And the whole group loughed.
That made Cera madder than ever. Pulling herself free, she cried out, "Oh, shut up. I hate all of you! I don't ever want to see any of you again, ever!"
With that, she stomped out of the cave into the darkness. As she marched away her eyes filled with tears. She really didn't mean what she had said. It was just that her pride had been hurt. She looked around, half expecting them to come after her. But they didn't, and her heart sank a little.
A heavy rain started to fall, washing the tar off Littlefoot and the others. "Let her go," he said. "If she doesn't want to come back, there's nothing we can do." The others sadly had to agree.

decided to add this clip to show the difference

Don Bluth also thought this rumor was nuts and was never intending that

Quote

I was sure I'd read that somewhere too, but I wasn't able to confirm this when I tried to search for it online.

However, I do remember reading a bunch of threads on the IMDB message boards for the LBT movies, and one user was (or claimed to have been) a former animator at Sullivan Bluth Studios, and talked a fair deal about events during the production of one or two of their movies (in one thread he talked about the discovery of Judith Barsi's murder). He said in one thread that the "original ending" rumor wasn't true, and noted if it had ever existed, he'd never heard Don Bluth mention it (or something like that).

Could be worth looking for again...although this was a LONG time ago that I read this; around the time I joined the GOF? Prob >2006?

...Methinks I might have posted this before?

dont remember where it was either I read it

maybe someone asked Don Bluth on his forums or something

its funny because its hard to get any info about land before time from him since it looks like he feels the movie wasnt his best because of all those edits and squeals later

decided to put this here too

was watching this and there was a missing scene here too

notice when the gang all hug and sleep together and how they are positioned

next scene they somehow moved and made a heart
"Cera ends up in the middle between spike and littlefoot"

scene missing : cera moving herself to the middle
my thought: she probably blush or something and didnt want to be hugged by littlefoot
