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

  • A thorn in the eye did not halt it from chasing the kids for the rest of the movie.
  • It killed (or severely injured, if it was the great "earthshake" that 'finished the job') Littlefoot's mother with a simple scratch/bite on the back.
  • It survived a deathly fall after the forementioned earthshake.

I would have also accepted "Leapt distances that would be unnatural for a tyrannosaur (for instance, when they were trying to drop the rock on him.) And "based it's head against a rock repeatedly with no side effects" :p Your turn!

Oh, dear. I've got to stop answering these trivia questions. :p I'll think of something later.

And just to clear any misconceptions up, this is the other gang of five featured in the LBT movies.

I would say...DUCKY!...unless Petrie was born first and we didn't know about it >.>

I'm going to watch a couple of scenes in some LBT movies to confirm my answer, but I believe you are incorrect.

LBT one shows Ducky hatching first implying her to be the oldest one. LBT V claims Cera to be the oldest (how could they know without them or their parents being around at the same place at the time when they hatched?). Which movie do you think was right Many Cav?

Personally, I think it's ducky since we all saw she hatched first, unless they all hatched at the same time, which then no one would be oldest :p

Those, in fact, were the two movies I was referring to. If one assumes the original movie to not be 'out of order' (i.e., scene 2 doesn't occur before scene 1), then it is correct that Ducky was born before Cera. However, it is known among the gang somehow in LBT 5 that Cera is the oldest. Cera knew it, and Littlefoot knew it (Littlefoot: "But that's you!" Cera: "I know."). How did they know? Who told them this? One can only speculate. I was basing this trivia question on the assumption that Cera's hatching was shown before Ducky's on the original movie, but after watching the first scenes again, I see this is not the case. It could very well be that both hatchings occurred near the same time, and that due to the 'camera' not being able to conveniently show both hatchings at the same time without making it look ugly, one was arbitrarily chosen to be shown before the other. It is on this that I say Cera was born before Ducky, but you may well disagree, so I'm just going to let which ever of you two (Achillobator and Malte279) gets here first post the next question, though I think it would be more fair to let Malte279 do it since Achillobator did a question most recently.

I am cool with that. Malte, it's your turn I guess   :)

It would have been fine with me for you to take the next turn. :)
But here we go:

Please give at least two examples where events from a sequel are very similar to events from the original land before time movie.

(just to see their validity) the hatching of a dinosaur in 2 (and for that matter, the appearance of a baby spiketail/triceratops/duckbill/pterodactyl in 2,) 3 young yellow trisceratopes in 2, Hyp falling into the tar in 3, unusual weather patterns in 4, Migration in search of food in 5, The rock that looks like a longneck (being key to the story) in 6, The stories of how people reached the great valley in 7, 3 young triceratopes in 7, -very abstract- Spike gets a 'family' in 8, the mountains that burn (to find their way home) in 9, Littlefoot having a parent in the movie in 10, prejudice to those that are different in 11, Petrie having troubles with flight in 12; TV Series: The return of a tyrannosaur who has a scar on his eye

It was in a way a stupid question as there are too many possible answers and it depends very much on the individual whether or not a close similarity to LBT is seen or not. Two examples which I had in mind was the sharptooth of LBT 6 (falling down a deep gorge, perceived dead and yet survives which turn out when one of the heroes is near (in this case particularly near) by), and the fight with the swimming sharptooth in LBT 9 (Mo's arrival just in time, same as Cera's in the original movies final fight and his supposed death and return similar to that of Petrie). Anyway, the next question is yours to ask Many Cav.

Not necessarily before they switched to DVD. They were still releasing new VHS videos even while they were releasing them on DVD. And, no, your answer is incorrect.
