I voted for Land Before Time II. Why? Because after a little bit of thought, I decided that in spite of their somewhat humorous moments, Ozzy (in particular) and Strut (not so much) were rather dark villains. Ozzy could have just lived in the Valley and ate plants, but he was so obsessed with eggs he couldn't he also bullied his younger brother into following him in the process preventing Strut from eating plants, in spite of Strut's complaints of being starved. They tried to kill Littlefoot becuase he constantly got in their way and I don't remember whether they were going to kill the rest of the gang when they had them cornered on that ledge and got scared off by Chomper's shadow. It also showed the Valley as being dangerous with the sinking sand and the geyser that Littlefoot almost gets hit by, the volcano too. |

No she didn't die in fact the beginning of LBT13 and Littlefoot's first dream sequence are the only good parts of that movie, the songs and those stupid dodo birds ruined it almost completely but I voted for LBT4 why because Grandpa Longneck almost dies and it includes the Land Of Mists AKA prehistoric Silent Hill.

Ah well. I suppose every series has its Phantom Menace, although this film was by far the worst of the two. |

I don't know, I thought 12 was OK. Anyway, I thought that 4 was probably the darkest sequel. |

Oh, I might add, besides dealing with death though, 4 did have an awesome cave sequence which is very dark and one of the best sequences of the seuqels. But that's not what I'm voting for. I'm gong with 3...it's all about the herbivores facing drought that'll eventually kill them all. 5 starts out in a similar manner but then it took on a new storyline of how they'll get off the island...and then brought in another storyline about Chomper. Which is part of the reason 5 is a mess---it felt like they couldn't settle with one storyline and in the end took a lot of time into resolving the lame Chomper one while resolving the other 2 (the herbivores finding food and the gang getting off the island) quickly and unthoughtfully. <_< But movie 3...it's awesome. ![]() |

I said three, probably because of the some of the violence at the end of the films. |

Always wanted to post here. My choice is The Land Before Time 4. That's how Land Before Time sequels should be done. Having a conflict based around some flyer festival (LBT 12) or a candy tree (LBT 11) is not a good way to create an epic, unforgettable story. The LBT 11 and 12 were enjoyable enough, but they simply can't beat the Journey to the Mists. |

Littlefoot

The Roy Allen Smith sequels, (earlier ones) while was still very much light hearted in comparison to the original, still had an interesting "feel" to it that was a nice mixture of goofiness and some element of danger. Out of the Roy Smith ones, I have to side with the majority and say Land Before Time IV had the darkest theme. It dealt solely with Little Foot's grandfather dying, a bit more subtle racism (i.e. Ali) then Mr. Three Horn's, "Three Horns never waste water, but your herds do!" in the third sequel, and mostly darker scenes like what Cancerian Tiger said about Ducky, and the Land of Mists, while not as perilous as what the kids cross in the first film, still pretty spooky. Out of the Charles Grosvenor movies, definitely Land Before Time VII, as it actually deals with kidnapping, lust for power, manipulating family members, sending part of a herd to their deaths, even if it was unintentional, it was still reckless and stupid, back stabbing cohorts, coming to terms that just because you may love a family member doesn't mean you have to agree with them and their actions. In the end however, I'm going with 4. |

I'd say maybe 4 overall. & has dark elements, spoiled by the alien rainbowface reveal at the end. leaving them a mystery would have been better. 5 starts off a bit dark but not like 4 dealing, like mentioned above, with the possibility of Littlefoot's grandfather possibly dieing. Though 2 dealing with egg stealers/eaters had dark elements also, and the way one of them stole one ducky's parent's unhatched egg. Though spoiled a bit by how the egg got back to the nest. |

LBT 5 since the Gang got separated from their families like in the Original plus their home was destroyed. LBT 3 and LBT 4 were quite dark, too. |

If a movie 14 ismade it needs a darker storyline, after 13. |

I totally agree! LBT 13 was ridiculous but sadly chances are low that there'll be another movie at all anytime

Who needs mirrors? XD

That's what I went with - it wasn't every LBT episode you saw that dealt with (unintentional) dino-slaughter, extortion to some point, kidnapping, and forgiveness all jammed into one... ...and Dr. Who even visited ![]() For that, I choose 7! 4 came close because as I see, it dealt a lot with the possibility of losing a loved one - circle of life, which is always tricky to explain, and Dil I remember seemed a heckuva lot more threatening than Sharptooth 1. |

For me it is a close race between the fourth and seventh films, for the reasons that others have indicated. I would have to say, however, that LBT 4 would be my vote for darkest sequel simply for the way it was presented to the audience. |
