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.

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??!"

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

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

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

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

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.

Land Before Time VI Released Straight To Landfill

HOLLYWOOD, CA–In a gala Hollywood burial, The Land Before Time VI: The Secret Of Saurus Rock, the latest installment in Universal Pictures' and Amblin Entertainment's long-running animated series, was released straight to landfill Tuesday. "For the first time ever, we're bypassing video stores and taking this beloved Don Bluth family adventure series directly to its biggest market," Universal Pictures spokesperson Marianne Fordson said. More than 250,000 copies of The Land Before Time VI were released from a dumptruck and buried under 950 tons of dirt and refuse in the L.A. Department of Sanitation's dump site in Hollywood. "Join us in welcoming this funny, heartwarming dino-tale to the bottom of an enormous mound of trash," read a press release for the film.

BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER WAS FUCKING GREBT

remy bean, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

re Tiny Toons: I still use "The Happy-Go-Pukey" joke to describe state fair rattle rides.

Also, the only "kiddie" movie I know of that makes multiple Deliverance references.

Fern Gully sounds like a euphemism for some sort of mossy vaginal infection.

remy bean, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 20:45 (sixteen years ago) link

I cannot believe you all made it this far without mentioning that one of the characters in ferngully is voiced by TONE LOC

Edward III, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 21:40 (sixteen years ago) link

surely that counts for something

Edward III, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 21:41 (sixteen years ago) link

what about the Peanuts movies, and the constant downers they were?

kingfish, Wednesday, 13 June 2007 21:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Guys, I think something is seriously wrong with me, I dont think I have ever seen ANY OF THESE MOVIES. WTF.
