The Land Before Time is much much shittier than any of us thought it was when we were kids.

nickalicious, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:25 (sixteen years ago) link

I think my brother loved Brave Little Toaster more than I did but then again my brother was OCD and had weird obsessions with inanimate household objects

Curt1s Stephens, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:26 (sixteen years ago) link

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE WORLD STOPS CARING?

A: ILX

Curt1s Stephens, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:26 (sixteen years ago) link

And yet somehow it spawned more sequels than any other movie ever made. I swear they're on like The Land Before Time 1,000,000,000 now.

charles nelson reilly was a voice in all dogs go to heaven, as was burt reynolds. this is amazing information to me, i had no idea.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:26 (sixteen years ago) link

BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER===fucking great. Singing junkyard=k-scary.

ALL DOGS scared shit out of me...'once you've gone, you can never come back. This movie gave me weird metaphysical ideas. Don Bluth's Mormon, too, I have no idea how he pulled this crazy canine cosmology out of his ass.

I held up okay through Milo & Otis, but Benji The Hunted fucked my shit up when Mama Cougar got shot.

Do fundies let their kids watch The Land Before Time?

milo z, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link

I ALWAYS FUCKING THOUGHT THE LAND BEFORE TIME WAS THE STUPIDEST MOST AWFUL MOVIE EVER

but of course, i never fell for that dinosaur propaganda they shovel into little kids' mouths anyway.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link

I like how this thread is actually about every other crappy animated movie besides Fern Gully.

Guys I saw Don Bluth's Titan AE in the movie theater as an adult.

nickalicious, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link

Land Before Time pissed me off so bad because I was all "THOSE ARE NOT LONG NECKS THEY ARE APATOSAURUSESES GODDAMN YOU SPIELBERG"

jessie monster, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link

wait MY little brother loved land before time

ghost rider, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:28 (sixteen years ago) link

he had all the fucking video sequels

ghost rider, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Land Before Time made me cry so hard my parents took me out of the theatre and gave me Ny-Quil so I could sleep instead of my ridiculous sob fit epic.

Abbott, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:28 (sixteen years ago) link

none of these movies are crappy except for ferngully and the land before time.

xpost ok and one upon a forest looks crappy too

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:29 (sixteen years ago) link

in my elementary school we got the day off to watch ferngully and it was so shitty and boring that 3/4 of my grade went to try out for intramural basketball to escape

A B C, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

there's are at least two or three scenes in each land before time where the group gets separated from one another and there is two minutes of frantic shouting of "LITTLEFOOT?!"
"DUCKIE?!"
"CERA?!?"
"SPIKE??!"

so of course we would basically always shout this, in my house, at each other. eventually we started adding "MULDER?! SCULLY??!"

ghost rider, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

omfg Charlie in All Dogs was played by BURT REYNOLDS I NEED THIS MOVIE NOW

Curt1s Stephens, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

scenes of neglected, unwanted kittens shivering in cardboard box on the sidewalk/subway platform = ultimate heartbreak

milo z, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:31 (sixteen years ago) link

once upon a forest totally was sub-ferngully, my mom left me and my dad in the theater to go to bloomingdale's ~10 minutes after the one forest critter's parents got gassed

This will truly separate the nerds from the people who are way too obsessed with their childhood.

jessie monster, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:32 (sixteen years ago) link

the second?? third?? land before time has an AWESOME song in it tho. they've met a baby t-rex and he is their friend and they invite him to dinner (?!?) then they sing a v catchy number called "Friends for Dinner" which has a double meaning once Cera warns them that he is still a sharp-tooth and will surely eat them

ghost rider, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:32 (sixteen years ago) link

"dansk tale"

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:32 (sixteen years ago) link

alex what the fuck

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:32 (sixteen years ago) link

We watched this in my high-school French class, on the logic that some character says "beaucoup" at some point.

nabisco, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:33 (sixteen years ago) link

happily ever after was straight to video wasn't it? or am i confusing it with other disney knockoffs? i remember renting an off-brand little mermaid (with a more faithful ending, bullshit) out of desperation

A B C, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:33 (sixteen years ago) link

oh god my mom made the mistake of renting another cartoon little mermaid during my sister's little mermaid phase. wowwww was that a mistake.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link

lol she dies!

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link

I have no idea about Happily Ever After other than I watched it about 900 times in three days.

jessie monster, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link

huge lolz re. accurate little mermaid cartoon

ghost rider, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:36 (sixteen years ago) link

Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:38 (sixteen years ago) link

ok for some reason this is making me recall that there is a live action anime series of little women. i'm pretty sure it is "true to the book" too unlike a certain katharine hepburn film version i saw when i was very little and the realization that beth dies really fucked with me.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:44 (sixteen years ago) link

also wtf japan, out of all the things you make television series about?

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:44 (sixteen years ago) link

My friend Jason's mom went to the video store to get us a cartoon and returned with "Watership Down." We were eight.

This went v. poorly.

John Justen, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:50 (sixteen years ago) link

Also "Brave Little Toaster" was great, also "Tiny Toons: How I Spent My summer Vacation", which is criminally unavailable on DVD.

John Justen, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 19:51 (sixteen years ago) link

dude looks like he's peeling the flesh from his neck wtf kinda movie is this

g-kit, Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:24 (sixteen years ago) link

He's just trading bright lights for barnyard laughs.

jessie monster, Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:25 (sixteen years ago) link

people don't care about the rainforest or manatees anymore

:(

homosexual II, Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:47 (sixteen years ago) link

the 2nd carebears movie was good, too, mostly because its about kids AT CAMP!!

homosexual II, Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:48 (sixteen years ago) link

the second Care Bears movie is the one I remember most. I think I actually remember that growing-up song.

Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:49 (sixteen years ago) link

WAIT A SECOND, I HAD NO IDEA THAT ROVER DANGERFIELD MOVIE EXISTED. THAT LOOKS LIKE A MUST SEE.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:53 (sixteen years ago) link

i dont know HOW but i could watch basically any movie i wanted when i was a kid, my parents didn't pay attention at all to what they were checking out at blockbuster, but i totally saw cool world and was sooo disappointed because it turned out to be a real movie and not really a cartoon that much.

homosexual II, Thursday, 14 June 2007 13:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Second Care Bears movie was the best because it had a variety of Care Animals and they were all cute.
