About The Land Before Time
The Land Before Time follows Littlefoot and friends trekking toward the Great Valley across a long dinosaur run. The original film premiered in 1988, directed by Don Bluth with a sad stampede opening. Thirteen video sequels followed from 1994 to 2016 with songs, new lands and the same young herd plus Chomper.
All fourteen films plus the 2007 TV series form one loose continuity where release order is story order. Watch the 1988 original, the mid 1990s sequels, then the 2000s entries and the 2007 series in sequence. The TV run slots after the early films as extra valley tales. The full set from 1988 to 2016 is the complete path from first migration to the brave journey finale.
Good to know
Watch the 1988 original first, since it sets Littlefoot and the valley quest with real weight. The 1990s sequels continue as lighter musical trips, so they play best in release order. Save the 2007 series for after the early films, since it assumes the herd is known. The long run rewards release order with no timeline tricks. Release order keeps herd bonds and valley trips clear.
