Description
its been a while since i did one of these images with audio eueb anyways i did a screencap redraw.. or more like repaint
Okay… I would like to make a speech thing… ABOUT THIS MOVIE “THE LAND BEFORE TIME.”
Without this movie, I literally would not be sitting here drawing today. When I first began drawing, all I drew were dinosaurs and creatures— HEAVILY inspired by this movie… and now when I look back at this movie, I just appreciate the animation and art of it more. I know it’s an old movie, so the quality isn’t the most HD-ish thing in the world, but whenever I look at the movements and expressions, it’s just soooo WELL DONE AND PHENOMENAL LIKE .. I CAN’T. As for the land before time series that came after the original movie, they cannot compare.
This will sound weird, but the death of Littlefoot’s mother is my favorite scene of the entire movie as well as whenever he somehow spiritually communicates to his mother through his heart. I know that it’s a really sad scene, but when I watched this when I was like 4-5, it was probably the first time in my entire life I actually remember feeling emotions when watching a film. Many animated films I’ve watched inspired me artistically when I was a kid, but this was one of the first scenes I’ve probably ever watched in any animated film that actually made me feel sick to my stomach. Back then, I always rewinded back to this scene several times just to get that kick of emotion because it was something I did not feel often. I really LOVED the way the movie was able to leave an emotional impact on me, even if it was really depressing because I was able to feel SOMETHING on an emotional level just from watching this movie. To be honest, this movie also probably gave me a greater understanding about death, mourning, and overcoming it.
I also always cry over the idea about even though someone is no longer with you, they’re still with you spiritually, or in your heart. You can make any character die, and I probably won’t really cry over it unless someone gives a small speech about the importance of the heart. It’s just.. FGHDFKGJHDFFDKGH. GUHGGHGUG. It’s sad when someone physically dies, but the emotional connection that lives on ALWAYS GETS TO ME….. anyways that’s all for now BYE

Oh man! all them feels from this film!!! The very first Land Before Time movie will always be my favorite for all the connections it has to young and old. Its one of those few films that can actually make you shed tears in parts of them film, much like some older Disney classics do the same. I have to say "Baby Mine" from Dumbo and The Death of Littlefoot's Mother have me tied when it comes to crying experiences.
Great work!

I was probably 10 when this movie came out, and saw it in theaters. I also owned the VHS and watched it many many times after. This part was always so hard for me as a kid, and even now as an adult so many years later. Your description, art and music to it are amazing and make me cry again even now as I write this. Thank you.

aaAHHH..My childhood just came back and smacked me right across the face. When I was little, my uncle and I used to sit around and watch this movie over and over. Well that was when he lived with us. I used to have these stuffed animals that he gave me of all The Land Before Time characters. This scene always did make and still does, make me tear up because even though LittleFoot's mother wasn't there for a lot of screen time, you could still feel the pain LittleFoot was going through. That was one of the three people that he really knew, that was the first face he saw that he could trust. This movie has had a great impact on my life, I can't really explain why. But it just does, So... Thank you so much for drawing this out, It's brought back many memories. c:

Totally against the rules.

She did a repaint of it. So she recreated this picture, she didn't use the original. Doesn't this not apply to the rules?

I just open it and start to cry, like when i saw this scene when i was a little child. I have seen this film for about 10 years (i think) but all of the memories and feelings came to me.

All the land before time movies inspire me very much, Some more than others, but still. I think there`s just something about older cartoons that makes them unforgettable! You hardly ever run into true gems like The Land Before Time, I still have all the movies on VHS.
