BCDB: Cartoon Reviews: The Land Before Time

like the topic says unlike disney universal doesnt make movies to promote a toy line once in a while you will see a few minor toys at mcdonolds burger kings etc which promote the film.
when the land before time came out back in 88 i dont remember any toys to even promote the film untill it was released to vhs (remember thoose things :) ) then burger kind and mcdonolds both had some toys gain with lbft2 a toy line released after the film was out.
Imo universal cartoon studios bluth and speild burg are much better artists and directors than any thing disney has to offer.
The land before time is one of my favorite animated films and im 20 years old infact i am making 3d models of the chars from lbft for a 3d chat room.
I was taken by suprise when lbft 2 was released in 94 6 years after the first one and for the longest time i couldnt figure out why there was such a long time span i was curious so i started diging then i found this http://www.angelfire.com/tx4/judithbarsi/ and it made me sick to my stomache how could any one kill there own child.
It has always been my thought that the reason for the time span was this also sickened speilburg and bluth to the point that they decided against doing a second lbft.

The first movie in this series is the best of the lot. Unlike the rest of the movies that are made straight for video , this movie was made for the theatre and therefore had a little more class go into it. It has an easy to follow plot with extremely likeable characters. Worth a view.
