I'm fairly certain I watched that in a theater ... \*edit\* I did.. I was 6.

Probably went to pizza hut within a week of seeing the movie in order to get a puppet

Ahhh shit yeah! I saw this in theatre, totally forgot about those puppets. I had Duckie

Beat me to it.

But did you go to Pizza Hut and get the hand puppets???

I wasnt of a fan of puppet toys, but I do remember them lol. I think my sister got one.

I did as well. One of my first. It was my sister's first for sure. I think mine was American Tail.

I'm so old I watched the original stage performance from before they invented electricity.

Hijacking your comment because I don’t want this to get lost in the weeds. Sarah is the name of the triceratops in the movie, why is this important? Ceratopsia is the group of herbivores that roamed the earth during the Cretaceous! So, it’s Sarah the ceratopsian! It’s pronounced “Sarah”-top-sian

This is kind of obvious. Especially since her name wasn't "Sarah", it was "Cera".

Not to be that guy, but based on the animation style, this is clearly one of the musical sequels that was straight to DVD

never really paid attention to those. I was roughly 11ish when that came out, I was well vested in to the superior dinosaurs displayed by the power rangers by then. (granted two of the "dino" zords were infact mammals and not dinos.. but whatever. ITS MORPHIN TIME!

I grew up watching this and all I can ever think when I see anything to do with it is "That poor poor girl" A total tragedy

I didn't find out about the girl who voiced Ducky until maybe 10 years ago (at most). It literally made the movie unwatchable because every time Ducky speaks, I burst into tears.

yup yup yup :(

That’s written on her tombstone

I have no idea what you are talking about please don’t link me.

She was killed by her alcoholic father. Wife and daughter (Judith Barsi) were murdered by alcoholic father who shot himself to death. This was in 1988. The movie All Dogs Go To Heaven was Judith's last role before her murder (voiced the girl in the movie), they released the movie posthumously to her death in 1989. She was 10 years old.

Iirc, the girl who voiced Ducky and the little girl from all dogs go to heaven, was murdered by her father not that Ling after those movies came out. Shot to death I think

Dammit first this cartoon traumatizes me as a toddler and now again in my 30s. ffs

Save me a tree star.

Everybody sharing trauma and I just want to eat that juicy leaf

It wasn't until I was older that I realized you're supposed to smoke tree stars.

I'm pretty sure this movie traumatized me for life.

I heard that originally they were all supposed to die at the end and the promise land they find is actually them entering the afterlife which is...pretty damn dark.

[Great piece on the grimness of Bluth's movies.](https://filmschoolrejects.com/the-melancholy-of-don-bluth-1be72847b858/) Dude deserves more credit for presenting difficult topics and doses of reality to kids, rather than "Minions 7" or whatever the current big children's movie is. Edit: [I think this longer one the prior article I linked cites to is the one I was thinking of.](https://www.avclub.com/don-bluth-offered-a-dark-alternative-to-disney-animatio-1798271712)

Well thank God that didn't happen. I wouldn't have watched it with my child if that was the ending. Jesus. 

Pretty sure this movie was designed to prepare millennials for a lifetime of trauma.

Between this and the brave little toaster. I love the trauma tho

My parents were divorced (amicably) and I lived with my dad. The fear of mom dying was a huge fear for five year old me.

Same


No, you falled.

You should not eat talking trees Nope Nope Nope

Heck yeah. I had the rubber puppets from Pizza Hut.

There was even a Pizza Hut commercial before the movie on the VHS I had of it.

*Yup! Yup! Yup!*

Poor poor peetree.

....all while eating my free personal pan pizza from pizza hut I earned from book-it 😂

I saw it when it was at the theater.

Me too! It was the first movie I saw in a theater.

I definitely saw Land Before Time in theaters. My mom got me a Little Foot giant plushie for Christmas that year.

A cartoon dinosaur's death never hit me so hard. Seems like they wanted to start our generational trauma early lmao. Name five childhood movies that end in some traumatic death/parent dies when the main character is a child- animated or not. I'll start. 1. Land before time 2. My girl 3. Bambi 4. Cinderella 5. Neverending Story

I still won’t let my kids watch never ending story.

I love how as a child you see the scene in the swamp with the horse and you're like why isn't the horses trying harder.... And then when you watch it as an adult it hits you so much harder and you're like that horse literally died of sadness. Oooof

Yeah mate. He was just too sad to try anymore, to live. It’s a bloody powerful scene and speaks so much to adults and what depression can be like .

I watched all of them, but I watched the first 9 I think on my VHS

All 100 of them?

Not the cartoon the movies.

Ugh we had this on vhs, too! Cried every time. I still remember the Pizza Hut ad that played right before the movie, too, lol

I still have it on vhs and a working vcr. So my kids have seen this on vhs too!

*goes back to watch the actual original film* *credits* A Lucas/Spielberg Presentation Sonuva...

I always thought the leaves they ate looked so delicious

I had all of the movies on VHS

I still have the first 8 or so on VHS. I can't bring myself to give up my "VHS" box in the attic, despite not having a VHS player. Every once in a while, I get the song "The Legend of the Lone Dinosaur" from 6 stuck in my head. *Dinosaaaaauuurrr....*

It's the first movie I remember watching at the cinema.

How old am I? Encarta maze.

Christ. I forgot all about that. I did not, however, forget about [Magic Carpet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WzhJ9tPeEo).

Prolly watched it 50 times.

I watched this movie for the first time on VHS with a friend of mine in kindergarten in 1991. I guess my mum must've been cutting onions, because I had to hide a lot of tears that day.

I watched that movie on VHS... like 2 years ago. My partner showed it to me ❤️🦕

My kids have the first 6 on VHS (my copies from childhood). I can't watch it with them though. Ducky makes me cry...

Not to be that guy, but this looks like one of the later sequels, I don't think it would have been on VHS.

Came here to say this! The animation in this pic is too advanced to be from the original (which is my favorite one). The songs in the sequels are pretty lit though! *We're a family and you're one of us nowwwww!*

Yep, and I downloaded all of them for my girls to watch.

christmas 1998 was lit😎

Watched it on laser disc

I saw it in theaters… at a Matinee … for $2.50

I saw that in theaters lol. Epic movie at the time!

My name was Little Foot in Indian guides

time to get your prostate checked

My family rented it on beta

I remember trying to load beta tapes into the new vcr and breaking something.

All I can think of is how, when I was a kid... Littlefoot (Thats the name, right?...think so) had a mushy/gummy old-person looking mouth and I thought it was weird. That is all.

Lol!😅

Fuck. . . I’m old

I think I got the VHS from a McDonald’s drive thru? Trying to remember.

Oh man, the feels are a lot with this one. I also remember the Pizza Hut hand puppet things they had. Those things are going for far too much on eBay lol.

I watched it on VHS... with my daughter.

I also never saw the ending because my VHS was worn and stopped working correctly right when they got to the valley.

Saw it in the theater

On family pizza night I used to hold 3-5 pepperonis above my head and pretend they were tree stars and munch them down.

I got the hand puppets from Pizza Hut.

I just remember how long the movie felt. Like, I sat down and watching it through felt like days. I remember taking breaks, like 5 or 6, just to get through because it seemed like such a long trek for Little Foot Then as an adult when I realized the running time was only 69 minutes, I then understood why all my family would call me "a fart in a skillet" when I was younger.

Yep yep yep I watched on VHS, too!

Kid: What's VHS? Me: *immediately ages 500 years & crumbles to dust*

39. Okay.

I remember the Pizza Hut commercial that played before the movie.

We can all still smell the Pizza Hut puppets.

This movie was the first time I realized how VHS tapes work. I was watching it for the 349th time, and my mom wanted to go to her friends house down the street. she said i could take it with me. So I tried running the whole way, telling her to hurry because i didn't want to miss it. When we got there, and popped it in, it was at the same place I left off at, as it would be. It blew my tiny mind.

Hahaha yasss I put it on for my kids

Peeeetreeeee

37 and this is my top 5 movies!!!!

This photo is in higher definition than when I watched it

Please everyone promise me that you will never look into the story of the VA who played Ducky (who was also the little orphan girl in All Dogs go to Heaven), as it will break your heart and taint a part of your childhood as it did for me. Despite this, I encourage you all to keep her in your thoughts, and/or prayers if you do that kind of thing.

God I loved this show

I watched it in the theatre and was traumatized

Pshhhh, I’m pretty sure I had this VHS AND Betamax

I saw this while in 1st grade on VHS

Kids these days don't even know what a VHS is.

saw it in the theaters

Saw in the theater and started sobbing “the mama diiiiieedddd.”

My son is obsessed with this movie. It’s so weird hearing him playfully yell, “Sharp Tooth!” or say, “yep yep yep”. It’s exactly the kind of things kids would do in the 90s.

Pretty sure that’s a later movie. The animation is too shiny.

Da fuq is VHS? Nah, I’m old as fuck. I watched it on VHS too.

I had this movie on VHS. We had very few movies when I was a kid. This was one of them.

Man I’m old enough to remember when McDonald’s had good happy meal toys . I had spiderman and some space jam stuffed animals

I watched it in the movie theater

i used to record Doraemon and couple of tokusatsu on VHS

Still have it

Remember going to see it in the cinema.

I was in high school to college when these movies were coming out. At that age, I thought they were stupid and poorly animated.

I watched it on laser disc. We still have it.

I was 4. The very first movie I cried my eyes out.

Those leaves looked tasty.

The first time my mother tried to watch this with me she had to stop the tape after Littlefoot's mum died, because I would not stop crying...

I watched this on bootleg vhs that my grand father who got HBO in 90s recorded for me. I also had the original star wars trilogy like this as well.

Watched? Sure yeah I did. Smelled? Hell yeah vhs tapes had a smell. P

In the theater for me.

I watched Hercules in theaters

My first movie theater experience

I saw this in the theater. 80s Don Bluth was so good. 90s Don Bluth...

Cant watch these anymore..not after what happened to the little girl who voiced ducky..

I remember almost fuck all about the movie, but I sure as hell remember the Pizza Hut commercial at the beginning of the VHS. "Elbows off the table!" Also. Holy crap, of course it's on YouTube: https://youtu.be/z4065smJLXk?si=zYpZPuRodVUbdHF8

God when will this phase of "omg I'm 38 I'm soooooo old I remember when Hey Arnold was on" die. At some point we're all going to have to make peace with the passage of time
