You're all wrong (cept for o0RainbowBrite0o). The series went to crap when they made the first sequel. Only thing is, the first sequel (the second one, to make myself clear) is only tolerable. Definitly not good or great, just bad all around. But compared to the other sequels, tolerable.

The first one, however, was brilliance.

Yep, this is where the franchise turned to crap. It should have ended with the second one.

This was a good movie. Not as good as the first two, but they should have stopped after this movie

I have this one. I hated it.

The first one is the best. Part 2 was good for a sequil. But part 3 of The Land Before Time is where the whole series of The Land Before Time went downhill.
