New Characters

Ruby is just sort of an action character.  I have no problem with chomper.

I have seen only four of the TV episodes so far, so I cannot give a competent judgement of the series as a whole. I do think that an explanaition for the presence of Chomper and Ruby in the Great Valley would be a good idea; I'm not convinced though that their showing up in the Great Valley should be the topic of a sequel. I am not sure if cementing the "Gang of Seven" as a replacement of the "Gang of Five" is a good idea. Already they had a problem to give each of the five maincharacters their share of the spotlight. It is a problem which I think will increase if the seven are to replace the five.

These lbt sequals are different from other one's I have seen. They have both action and are meaningful. The tv series is just a bunch of action and they really lack substance.

I do agree that the TV series episodes and the sequels are basically two different things. The last two sequels we have seen bear a deep similarity with the episdes I think.
I cannot agree to your point as to see the episodes of a mere bunch of action. Those episodes I have seen so far would not be done justice if described as "just a bunch of action lacking substance".

Ruby is just sort of an action character. I have no problem with chomper.

As I said I don't hope for the episodes characters to become part of the sequels, but from what I have seen so far it is kind of unfair to describe Ruby of all characters as a mere action character. She came accross as more sensitive and sensible than some of the other characters. What makes you think of her as a mere action character?

What makes you think of her as a mere action character?

I don't mean to offend anyone here, but I think that Ruby really is a character that's just there to be there.  Ya know, to stir things up a bit.

If not to be so blunt, I would definently say that her character is incomplete.  It just isn't the same as the others.  It lacks substance (for lack of a better word).  I definently don't like the idea of the "gang of seven" very much either.  By substance I mean that it doesn't feel right.  Ruby just doesn't seem to be an lbt character to me, at least not the way she's portraid in the tv series so far.    She could be a very good lbt character if she had an entire personallity change.

She also seems much more childish to me than the others.  It makes the others loose their little "Spark".  

What I dislike the most about the series is that in mose episodes, there really is only one thing going on.  One exception I can think of right off the bat is the big longneck test.  In this episode, there were 2 things going on at once, littlefoot being tested, and shorty leading the others to the great stone walkover.

I think it would be nice to have Ruby appear in a sequel, maybe not as a character with a whole lot of screentime, but just one who's there for a while, maybe in the background, because it would be nice continuity if the writers acknowledged her presence in the valley.

Unless you count the TV series as an alternate reality. Then things get bizarre.

As much as I like the series, I don't like the idea of more sequels. It sounds like something Disney would do, sucking every last dollar out of an essentially dead series. I would like to see sequels, but only if they can make it well, and by the looks of it, it seems to be doing everything but.

Chomper is well established, so I wouldn't mind having him in a third sequel. What got my goat was the Brave LongNeck scheme. Ali finally reappears after 11 years, and is basically overshadowed by Rhette. Her role was little more than a cameo, which, after all those years of waiting, was a big disappointment. I do hope they bring her back into the series for a few more episodes..As for Ruby, she's smart and articulate,but she does take getting used to.. She's essentially Chomper's caregiver.

[lbt/cty_lover]

I believe that soon enough, ideas are going to run out and characters will reappear. Chomper was just the first. These sequels will have to have character returns.

It would be nice to see the detail how they got into the valley and how the adults go to accept Chomper being around.   As for how many they'll make it likely depends on how long they continue to make a profit, which is likely depending on their having good writers doing good scripts, among other things.

[Manny Cav]

My vote is "yes" on both questions. In fact, it would hardly make sense if they didn't appear eventually. I hope that LBT 14 (if and when) explains some things....

[stars]

i would absolultely love to see more of Chomper and Ruby in the land before time it would be better to have them in new movis and series epsoids to explain more on the land before time.

They sould have at least one movie with Ruby in it. In fact she meets Chomper almost near the end of the movie. Lets  say the movie is 75 min long, and Chomper comes in around 35 min before the movie ends?

Yeah, the story of sharpteeth, that somehow manage to scramble in to the Great Valley... Mayble, Chomper could accidentally let dangerous carnivorous to enter the Valley too. But he helped to chase it away later, and so has proven, that he can be trusted.

[The Chronicler]

An excellent idea for a future sequel.
