    I don't think I ever watched any of these
  • I saw a few of them, then forgot about it for a few years, then remember wondering why they were still making them after the ninth or tenth one came out

    The weird thing is that I think I remember the sequels better than the original film, though I'm pretty sure the first one came out before I was born so that's probably why
  • I watched part of one of these once.
  • I watched part of one of these once.

    now that I think about it this may have been when I was in hospital
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    saw the first one, wasn't too interested, I don't bother with direct to video sequels.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    the original film was vastly different and more Don Bluthy than the sequels
  • I have cut a caper with the dancing mad god
    The sequels were generally more upbeat, whereas the original was very "wow, your mom just died and the world is literally going up in flames around you. Also, good luck finding anything at all to eat, sucker."
  • Munch munch, chomp chomp...
    That is actually why I was less interested in the sequels, honestly...
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    We should stram it at some point

    and the sequels, for maximum watching-Cartoon-Network-While-Bored-On-A-Saturday-Afternoon-In-2002 timewarp shit

    yes all twelve sequels, or whichever one we'd get to before we wanted to stop

    I would be down for watching the first.
  • We can do anything if we do it together.

    I actually much preferred the original myself. It was a much more interesting premise/setting, really. 
  • Watched one of these as a kid.  Barely remember it.  Other than that it had some drama in it.

    The main reason it came back into my radar recently is because of the "Yee" meme, which uses footage from the LBT knockoff "Dinosaur Adventure".

    well hey, I read all of the episode pages on the Transformers wiki. That's some serious kiddie bullshit nostalgia for someone of my age.
  • anonus qq when time was the last time you watched a land before time sequel

    I'm able to watch, without cringing, and possibly with enjoyment, things like Pokémon episodes.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    the original was really good, as i recall

    when i was a kid i liked the sequels (as far as i watched, we stopped getting them past a certain point) but idk if they'd hold up for me now or not

    Did you know that Don Bluth is a Mormon, and Land Before Time is apparently partially based on the stories of Mormon wagon trains he heard growing up?
