<v Speaker 1>Good day's letter is Letter L. Christian o'condlest of the eighties.

0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, Christian O'Connor show on God once a week

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:22.520
<v Speaker 2>you break apart of the eighties with our aightes out

0:00:22.520 --> 0:00:26.040
<v Speaker 2>of the eighties this week. Then the letter L live

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:27.560
<v Speaker 2>aid Patsy, how old are you?

0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Where did you watch it?

0:00:28.360 --> 0:00:28.560
<v Speaker 2>All?

0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:32.279
<v Speaker 3>Oh? How old was I? I was about thirteen and

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:35.360
<v Speaker 3>I can really remember watching it with my two brothers

0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:38.000
<v Speaker 3>who wrote me into it, and thank goodness they did.

0:00:38.000 --> 0:00:41.560
<v Speaker 3>And I remember Freddie Mercury on the stage and Queen

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 3>he just owned it.

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:46.959
<v Speaker 2>Francy in the in the Queen movie as well. They

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 2>capture that moment really really well. All right, the letter L. Now,

0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:52.400
<v Speaker 2>Jackie boy, you're not of the eighties, but I know

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:55.920
<v Speaker 2>you watched a movie last night, which is a henight

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:57.920
<v Speaker 2>of the eighties? Which movie did you? Any wife? Bank

0:00:57.960 --> 0:00:58.720
<v Speaker 2>can watched last night?

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Land Before Time? This is actually Bianker's favorite film and

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.520
<v Speaker 1>I'd never seen it before, so she watched it often

0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:07.480
<v Speaker 1>as a kid from nineteen eighty eight? Is it Disney

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. It's Spielberg and George Lucas the producers,

0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:14.240
<v Speaker 1>executive producers.

0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:15.320
<v Speaker 2>And it's cartoon dinosaurs.

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Cartoon dinosaurs. Yeah, animated dinosaurs. It was the highest grossing

0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:20.760
<v Speaker 1>animated film of its time. Yeah.

0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:22.960
<v Speaker 2>I seem to remember it being very sad. A dinosaur

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:23.479
<v Speaker 2>is orphaned.

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>This start is very sad. I'll give it that.

0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:28.720
<v Speaker 2>But that's like a lot of those classic the Disney movies,

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 2>isn't it. They always start there has to be someone

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:35.280
<v Speaker 2>being abandoned the forest or orphaned, like classic fables fairy tales.

0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:37.559
<v Speaker 1>And this is both because he sadly loses his mum

0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:40.399
<v Speaker 1>and then he's lost in the wilderness of the prehistoricus

0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 1>Stine wrinkle.

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:43.160
<v Speaker 2>Normally it's the dad that buys it. In these movies.

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:44.280
<v Speaker 2>It's always the dead dad.

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:47.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, I guess dad has already bitten the dust, I

0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>say on somewhere along the line. So that part was sad.

0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:52.920
<v Speaker 1>But and I know this is an important movie for

0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.680
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people of that generation because even our

0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 1>audio producer who I got the audiograms from, started crying

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:01.880
<v Speaker 1>when she was watching the YouTube clips of it, reminding

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:02.320
<v Speaker 1>herself of.

0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:07.000
<v Speaker 2>Being so is the orphan dinosaur, and then he meets

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:09.920
<v Speaker 2>he meets four of the dinosaurs. I seem to remember Spike,

0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:12.799
<v Speaker 2>Ducky yep, I don't remember the other two.

0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>This is where the movie lost me. I hated the

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:21.079
<v Speaker 1>ensemble characters, but the dinosaurs, four other dinosaurs. Littlefoot is

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 1>the main character. He's great, fine, he's the orphan fella.

0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 1>He's the orphaned fella. His friends who he meets along

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 1>the way, and some of the worst characters in animated history.

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Ducky is so annoying, Mono Ducky is so annoying. Petree

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.080
<v Speaker 1>is this bat type pterodactyl thing. He's even more annoying

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 1>than Ducky. Actually, are they annoying? Annoying how they're talking

0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 1>like babies but they are young.

0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 2>That's offending here.

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's about matship, Yes, and Petree, who's the flying

0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:53.120
<v Speaker 1>one can't do anything for himself. Oh no, I can't fly,

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I can't do this, I can't do that. Help me.

0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Little Foot he was just annoying. I actually hoped that

0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>he died.

0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, but not the Wizard of Oz. They all

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:04.880
<v Speaker 2>compliment each other. They're all there to represent what the

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:05.600
<v Speaker 2>other person doesn't.

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Littlefoot did all the heavy lifting in this. Everyone else

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:09.760
<v Speaker 1>just hung off here.

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:13.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, it sounds like a very familiar story. I might

0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:14.360
<v Speaker 2>be projecting him.

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not finishing it. Sarah is the price, Sarah Topps

0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:24.600
<v Speaker 1>terrible a with her name. Then they just Sarah bad

0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>attitude throughout the whole thing. I thought she was so

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:28.359
<v Speaker 1>read to the rest of the group. I would have

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:29.280
<v Speaker 1>kicked her out early.

0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 2>On such a survivor.

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:34.120
<v Speaker 1>And then and then Spy just tuned in right, went.

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 2>On till about last night's survivor A bo or anything's

0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.200
<v Speaker 2>talking about a beloved eighties movie, The Land Before.

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Tye Spike, who's your favorite character? I don't know why

0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.600
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't talk and it doesn't bring anything to the group.

0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:49.839
<v Speaker 1>He brings such a non character, I didn't think. So

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 1>what about Ducky Ducky no head of the besides Petrie,

0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>the most annoying character in the film.

0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Wow? Yeah, And does your wife, well you like this

0:03:58.760 --> 0:03:59.680
<v Speaker 2>watching the movie? O?

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 4>God?

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, I got up and excused myself when too another

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 1>room for a bit, and then came back and.

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 2>She was in polite with you in your life. I

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:08.720
<v Speaker 2>need to recuse myself on this. I need to go

0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:09.920
<v Speaker 2>to another room because I.

0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Didn't want to make fun of it in front of her.

0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:17.039
<v Speaker 1>Back to all of mel The only good thing about

0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Lamb Before Time is the run time an hour and

0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 1>eight minutes perfect.

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh god, that is lazy. Come on, Pielberg, they phone

0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 2>that one.

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:29.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, any less than that, it's really not even a

0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:29.680
<v Speaker 1>feature length.

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.679
<v Speaker 2>Traders used to be around fifteen minutes in the eighties.

0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:35.200
<v Speaker 1>And I'll tell you what they shouldn't use more in

0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 1>modern films that you never hear anymore is the narrator.

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, the narrator.

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Who's a guy with an old voice, like an old

0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 2>timey voice.

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and he just gets you through the film quicker.

0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Now, couldn't find anyone for days and das and he

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:54.160
<v Speaker 2>was about to give up until who came along? Then

0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:54.800
<v Speaker 2>they pick up the.

0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Action, Yes exactly, and then you don't have to have

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:58.440
<v Speaker 1>twenty minutes of story doing all that.

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's why they most to shave off and now

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 2>just get some old timey voiceover guy to do this.

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:07.679
<v Speaker 4>One heard had only a single baby, their last hope

0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:14.000
