So.....erm.....hi.
I'm G-bot and as you can see, I'm new here. When I was little my adult half sister often babysat me and one day she came over with a Land Before Time VHS for me to watch. I loved it! I'm pretty sure that LBT was my first real exposure to dinosaurs which led to some awkward moments when I kept calling an Apatosaurus or whatever a Longneck. XD I've seen and enjoyed all the sequels up to VI but then I just kinda stopped. ^^; Pokemon came out (In the UK) and it commanded total attention, so sadly for good while LBT just lied forgotten in the deepest recesses of my mind.
But last week around the Easter period my brother found the first movie airing on TV and it came flooding back to me! Wow it's amazing that LBT went on to have thirteen sequels (including the most recent one) THIRTEEN!!! It's catching up with Final Fantasy! And a TV series too! Wow! Might look into the movies I've missed. (Though I've heard bad things about the thirteenth one, so I don'y know might steer clear of that one. lol)
Normally when joining a forum for a show or a game I list my favourite characters, but....I really don't have any here. I love them all! :D If I HAD to choose however then I guess the closest one to my favourite would have to be Littlefoot. ^^ There are times when I just want to hug him. (a certain sad scene from the first movie being a prime example I'm sure you know which scene I'm talking about. :( )
Anyway I'm rambling now so I'll just shut up and enjoy myself here. Hope to make some friends with fellow LBT fans. :wave

Welcome to the forum, G-bot! :wave It is always great to see new members join the forum. Please feel welcome to participate in the forum's topics, or to create threads of your own. :)
And if you don't mind me asking, since you mentioned that you have missed some of the films, which of the sequels have you seen thus far?

Welcome to the GOF. :)
My interest in LBT (and dinosaurs) also had to take a step back when Pokemon appeared, but it never really disappeared and was always there.
As for catching up on stuff in the series, I'd recommend watching everything once (if you want to, that is) even LBT 13. You can still judge it afterwards. xD
Hope you enjoy your time here. :)littlefoot

Thanks for the welcome guys.
@rhombus I've seen II, III, IV, V, VI, a bit of VII and a snippet of X. (The
part where Littlefoot meets his father! HERE.HUG.NOW!!!!) That's about it.
@RockingScorpion Glad to see I'm not the only one. ^^ I'll certainly try and see all the movies, but I'll have to find them first. (I've made a rule for myself to not watch movies online.)

Welcome, welcome! I agree with the general consensus- watch all of the movies, and judge them for yourself :smile
I just recently got all of the sequels on DVD. Universal has re-released a bunch of them in three-movie sets(don't know if they've made it to the UK yet, though), and the ones I couldn't find I bought on ebay :yes

Well I looked in HMV today and found a boxset with the first four films! :D I snatched it up of course. There were more boxsets there but I couldn't afford them all, so they'll have to wait.
