This just in, Mo-o-o-o has many mo-o-ore questions incoming from other dedicated Land Before Time fans!
Individuals will be kept anonymous as I've stated to those who I've shared this with.
1st person asks: 1) If you were writing the story of the original movie today, what changes would you make?
2) Have you ever had interesting ideas for a sequel movie?
3) Do you have any ideas for how the franchise could continue and reinvent itself?
2nd person asks:1) What was it like working with Don Bluth, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and so forth?
2) What are some scenes you wish had been kept?
3) Were there any characters that were going to appear but were scrapped?
4) What was the inspiration behind naming Ducky, Littlefoot, Petrie, Spike, and Cera?
5) If you could, what names would you give Littlefoot's mother and grandparents, Ducky's parents, Petrie's mother, and Cera's mother and sisters?
6) There's a bit of inconsistency with the number of Ducky's clutchmates seen upon their hatching and later at the end, how many are there truly in her clutch?
7) What do you think happened to Cera's mother and sisters, since we only ever see her reunite with her father at the end?
8) Was Littlefoot's mother always planned to die?
9) What do you think happened to Spike's parents, and any clutchmates he may have had?
10) Is there a reason why Spike seemed to grow so quickly despite being smaller than Littlefoot and Cera when he was hatched?
11) What do you think happened to Littlefoot's herd that only left his mother and grandparents alive?
12) Did Ducky and her family live in a herd, since we see three Saurolophus in the scene where she hatches?
13) How do you think the story could've gone if Littlefoot's mother had survived?
14) How do you think Ducky and Petrie became separated from their families?
15) Is there a reason why Littlefoot's father is absent?
16) I've seen storyboard art of a Saurolophus family cutting through the scene of where Grandma and Grandpa Longneck are searching for their daughter and Littlefoot before the earth beneath buckles. Was that perhaps Ducky and her family?
17) Do you know how the Sharptooth chases Littlefoot and Cera, fights Littlefoot's mother, and the great earthquake was originally supposed to go before it had to be cut?
18) Is there a reason why it was decided to call the dinosaurs by made-up titles like "longneck" and "threehorn", or natural phenomons "the bright circle", "the mountains that burn", and "greenfood"?
19) What sorts of things were Grandma and Grandpa meant to say, as we see Bill Erwin credited for Grandpa in the credits?
3rd person asks:1) Is there a thought for another movie?
2) Do you have any information on the lost Land Before Time show at Universal Studios?
3) If you're familiar with the Persona series, what do you think the gang's Personas would be?
4) Have you played any of the LBT PS1 games? Which one's your favorite? Do you know if there were plans for a Nintendo 64 release?
4th person asks:1) How many movies were initially planned for the franchise? Now that it has reached up to 14 films, [that is].
5th person asks:1) What is your favorite dinosaur?
2) What species of dinosaurs would you add if you did do more sequels?
6th person asks:1) Were Ducky, Littlefoot, Petrie, Spike, and Cera always intended to be the main characters even in the early drafts?
7th person asks:1) Did you or the rest of the crew try to fight for the preservation of the deleted footage and make the higher-ups see how nonsensical the decision most likely was? Surely if the scenes were completed, they could have been re-released in some form later and earned Universal extra income? I get that Spielberg thought the scenes were scary but destroying complete animation sounds pretty crazy as the footage could have been stored somewhere with very little cost to wait for some way to monetize them. Especially if someone like Spielberg, Bluth or Lucas or you were allowed to keep them.
2) Also, can you guarantee on your part that the footage is totally and irrevocably lost?
3) I understand that this is a big question but I'd appreciate some kind of list concerning the deleted scenes and the spots where they were located in the film.
8th person asks:1) This is some art a friend made featuring versions of the Gang (plus Chomper, a young Sharptooth who appears in some of the sequels) from an alternate universe of mine set in the late-16th century, in what would later become the area of the municipality of North Cowichan, British Columbia, located specifically in the east-central part of what would later be known as Vancouver Island. The way each member can be identified is through the hair colour.
What do you think of it, Mr. Krieger?
