Description FINALLY!! This took forever!

This is actually in the series of scenes from Disney movies that make me cry:

Mulan: [link]
Incredibles: [link]

And yes this isn't disney, but it's still my favorite childhood movie, maybe even my favorite movie EVA. The scene I was originally gonna do was just the shadow one. I cry. Every time. buuuut the little guy with the cherry I love soo much toooo! so I decided to do a lot of scene, several that make me cry, some, that make me squee (awww baby littlefoot!) and some I added for filler and cuz I thought people would expect it in a piece like this (I actually don't usually cry with LF's mom dieing scene, but in the scene with old Rooter. Hey, he was gonna be in this picture, what happened? I guess my planning didn't work as well as I had hopped. so... I might try fixing up some of the tears and folds along the edges... and maybe the spot where my 2-year-old nephew decided to try to help me (in the middle circle near Ducky) but for right now, I just wanna post it!

The scene with LF and his mom and the setting sun is because I always like the religious symbolism in this movie, about faith

I LOVE the soundtrack... James Horner is AWESOME!

1. Great Migration (littlefoot hatching)
2. Sharptooth and the Earthquake (includes the faith scene)
3. Whispering Winds (LF's mom dieing, the guys fighting over the cherry, the shadow and finally the whispering wind, guess which track is my favorite! ok, it's a close tie with migration)
4. If We Hold on Together (the ending song, dunno why they made it track 4... one of the only non-star wars songs I have memorized, well, most of it, not the third verse, on piano that is)
5. Foraging for Food (Petrie's "WAIT!!" and the volcano stuff is this track)
6. The Rescue/Discovery of the Great Valley (Cera's "I'm coming!", "I tried" and then the "together"
7. End Credits

ahh... I love it all!!

I had a request to make this a print, so I better add some credits:
artwork (c) Me
Land Before Time and its characters (c) Don Bluth, Sullivan Bluth Studios, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, and Frank Marshall, Universal Pictures and Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment, or something pretty close to that.

I think all of us responding here are fessing up to being children of the 80's eh? I fondly remember this movie, I believe I was young enough to be found hiding under the movie theater chairs during Sharptooth's scenes

Land Before Time = <3
I used to love the LBT movies when I was a kid, and I still do; to the extent that when I was 5, I knew every word to the ending theme of the first movie.

I love this picture, you've truly captured all the different emotions of LBT, and that's not easy to do.
The middle is really, really cute, in a sappy sort of way... it's so beautiful

Same here- I now burst out into a LBT song whenever anyone reminds me of it (even if they just say that it was bad luck that they lost or something)

This picture has given me chills.

It has been many, many years since I have watched The Land Before Time. It was my ultimate favourite non-Disney movie when I was a little girl. You have captured the true essence of the film in this picture and I thank you for bringing back wonderful memories.

By the way, my favourite score is number 6. The Rescue/Discovery of the Great Valley. When James Howard hits that crescendo in the middle of the symphony with the symbols... Beautiful.

The Land Before Time is favorite Don Bluth film and I would says its better than An American Tail.

Nebulan In reply to Venofoot [2010-09-08 00:26:41 +0000 UTC]

I actually only saw American Tail in the last couple of years after seeing LBT growing up... I couldn't get over the fact how much Fievel looked like Littlefoot! hehe

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Venofoot In reply to Nebulan [2019-07-13 18:03:32 +0000 UTC]

The reason why I said that is because of that scene near the end of AnΒ American TailΒ where those three little bastards needlessly bully Fievel. They are so easy hate with a passion.

If I had AnΒ American Tail again I would have just skip that part because it's just too damn mean.

I even made these:

Obviously I'm upset when Littlefoot's mum dies, but when he's talking to Old Rooter about it and he's crying... ohhh it makes me tearful just thinking about it!!

Fabulous piece of art <3
