Movie posters appearing to show an upcoming remake of the children’s dinosaur movie The Land Before Time have elicited strong emotions on social media recently. But no matter if you think a remake is a bad idea or a good idea, the movie isn’t happening. At least not in the foreseeable future. The rumors about this fake dino-remake can likely be traced to a Facebook page called YODA BBY ABY, which first wrote about the potential movie in late 2023.
The prospect of a remake has been incredibly polarizing, especially because people who loved the original movie took issue with the way the dinosaurs looked on these fake movie posters. “I hope this is some kind of sick joke that someone made, because that is not Little Foot,” on TikTok user commented last week. Other TikTok users said they were “disrespecting the spirit of Land Before Time” and “disrespecting Littlefoot” with the new character designs.
