The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Yes yes she does if the new movie ever happens atleast she was in one movie tho I guess that's good enough but hopefully she'll appear in the next one.
We shall have to wait in see. If she ends up in only one film, at least fans will always have Journey Through The Mists.

I remember not liking Ali much when I was younger due to her initial prejudice against Littlefoot's friends. However, since then, my opinion of her has improved. This was her character arc, after all--later on in the movie, she realized, "It takes all sorts." And even when she was prejudiced, they played it not in an obnoxious/snobbish way (i.e., Cera in the first movie) but as a misguided fear, the result of living a sheltered life among one type of dinosaur only. Despite this fear, she was willing to go straight to the rest of the Gang for help when Littlefoot was in trouble, and she warmed up to them from there.

Even though Littlefoot+Ali isn't a ship I was ever very excited about, they're cute together, and I think it's pretty safe to say Ali was intended to be Littlefoot's love interest. I mean, there was that whole montage of Littlefoot and Ali scenes at the end of the movie, and how many one-off characters have gotten that sort of montage? That's right, just one, and you guessed her. :p

Ali is my second favourite character in the series and I really wish she got better development in later installments.

I totally DO ship her with Littlefoot :lol
Inactive, probably forever.

Good point about the montage. I always felt Ali was meant for Littlefoot too. After seeing “The Great Longneck Scheme,” I think Ali has reconsidered Rhett as a mate. He had lied to her and caused such a debacle, while Littlefoot did what he thought would expose the truth to Ali. Littlefoot is about truth, Rhett lied, easy chouce.

The song that plays over that montage is literally called "Together Someday" in the OST. :wub :OhYou
Would it be possible for swimmers and flyers to get more love around here? Both figuratively… and literally.

Hmm, more food for thought! Good catch!

You know, during my recent rewatch of LBT IV, it hit me that maybe people have interpreted the movie's ending wrong all this time. "Yes, Littlefoot and Ali would meet again someday...but that's another story." Maybe that didn't mean they'd meet again in another movie--maybe it was a hint that they'd cross paths further into the future and become MATES! :wow

Ali makes a good partner to Littlefoot, she’s cautious and yet strong willed. Littlefoot is more care free and tolerant (unless its determental like Rhett’s lies). They are quite a pair. Ali+Littlefoot Forever!

I don't know if this was discussed already, but did anyone else think Ali's herd was a cult?

it's been awhile since I saw the fourth movie, but I remember getting some strange vibes from the Old One

and the way they moved about from place to place and implied the possibility of the Great Valley falling just kind of sent me messages like "the end the near!"

idk, I just remeber getting some doomsday vibes from them, that's all..

what do you guys think?
I'll find something better to put here eventually..

Yes, Old One told wisdom, idea that Valley will change someday as Land of Mists, as many other lands, and it can give you vibe about future "apocalypse" of course, since we, people, know what fate will dinosaur kind and planet eventually met, but I never thought about something like "CULT" was in Old One's herd.

I myself didn’t get the cult vibes, I did get a sense they were exclusive, i.e. Ali only wanted to relate to longnecks at first.

But an interesting thought. Migrating a lot would sustain a cult mentality.

I've honestly never thought of it that way. From what I remember, Ali's herd used to settle in the Land of Mists, but when the mists took over and brought all kinds of danger, that was when they started to migrate. I think they just had a bad first impression of settling in one place, believing that staying in one place for too long was bound to render them vulnerable to all kinds of threats sooner or later.

Ali’s herd was basically like Life RVers, always on the move. ;)

Oh, WOW. :O

I wonder if the writers actually researched a variety of flowers and found this to use as inspiration.
