Laura's Great Valley Adventure (Season Finale)
Last time on Laura's Great Valley Adventure...
At least, I wish this movie was like that. No, we actually left off with the main characters trapped between the pedophile dinosaurs and a flow of lava. How many times do you hear that sentence? This entire situation could have been avoided if Chomper had his jetpack with him. Oh well. Let's see how this hour long abomination of my childhood is resolved, shall we?
So, how do they get out of this predicament you wonder? I couldn't care less, but the movie decided that it didn't care either. So they find a fallen tree making a bridge over the abyss of doom on their left. That was... convenient. I expected this part to be a bit longer. But how... what? Huh?

That was... simple
No. Resist the urge to question the movie. I must refuse!
Well, they run across the tree to get away from either burning to death or getting... struthi-fied. The main characters make it to the other side of course, but the stuthifreaks fall into the abyss of doom. Did I say fall? I meant jump. They jumped in. They... just jumped in. Why? They had a perfect path to run from the lava... and apparently can teleport as well.
These are the struthifreaks. I can't question them if I enjoy what little sanity I have.

| Oh, and floating eyebrows. |
You know, a long time ago, I had a Putt-Putt computer game. You know, Putt-Putt, that talking purple car with eyes and a pet dog? There were also dancing penguins and he went to the moon. My childhood was kinda trippy. Anyway, I remember he travelled in time to all sorts of ages. One of those was prehistoric times. There was this brachiosaurus chick that seemed rather drunk and wouldn't let me pass by. It was so annoying, and I seriously wanted to set a T-Rex on her.
God, how I wish I was playing that instead of watching this movie.
Sorry about that. My mind has been wandering throughout this entire movie. Not enough explosions or awesome dinosaurness to keep me interested.
The Subtle Art of Going Rawr
Remember those sharpteeth we saw coming to the valley earlier? I've been waiting this entire movie to see them do something, and that may just pay off now. Because, guess what? They have arrived! I would have preferred that they were introduced earlier and were the main villains instead of the strutifreaks. Really, who would make a better villain?


Yeah, I thought so.
Anyway, the kids bump into the tyrannosaurs (how could you not see them from ten feet away?) and begin a chase scene. This is probably the only good part in the movie, because it shows that a dinosaur movie can only be awesome with a badass T-Rex or two. Is it a problem that I'm rooting for them? If you watched Littlefoot and his friends for about five minutes, you'd hope a T-Rex would come and eat them too. Even though they're equivalent to dino-four-year-olds, they manage to outrun the tyrannosaurs and find shelter in a cave. Fine. Be that way. I forget who, but one of them mentions that "It's dangerous outside." Thank you, I would not have been able to figure that out on my own judging from the gigantic T-Rex waiting outside to eat you.
There are two reasons why I'm not complaining about tyrannosaurs in Dino-Eden. First of all, it's friggin' awesome. And second, it's mentioned that Littlefoot and his friends made a hole in the big wall that protects the valley during the rockslide from the beginning of the movie. Good going, guys. Why didn't you mention to anyone that there was a gaping hole in you defense against the awesome dinosaur world? If you're really that afraid of predators, then you should have told the big adult dinosaurs, "Hey, there's a giant hole in the wall that is protecting us from getting eateded...ed." And then they'd be like, "Oh, okay" and smashed some rocks from the sides of the hole to create a wall. Cue "If We Hold On Together" and the end credits roll.
All hope seems lost for the kids (and still I don't care) when suddenly, Littlefoot's grandpa comes to rescue them! In a surprisingly epic battle, he battles the two tyrannosaurs with his tail and stuff. But an old longneck isn't a match for two sharpteeth, so Grandpa Longneck makes a heroic sacrifice to-
No, wait, this is a kid's movie. Well, apparently tyrannosaurs have ADD or something, because they get distracted by Petrie and chase after him. I'm tired of questioning this, let's just move on.
Petrie leads one of the tyrannosaurs into a vine that Littlefoot and Chomper use as a tripwire and then tie it up. Because we all know a single vine is strong enough to trip and hold down a several-ton giant killing machine. Chomper, don't help Littlefoot! If you team up with the adult sharpteeth, you'll be unstoppable. You'll learn how to be a real T-Rex! Don't throw your life away, Chomper!
The other T-Rex is too busy trying to eat Cera to notice that its partner just got taken down by dino-four-year-olds. It gets distracted (big surprise) by Ducky and Petrie, who are sitting in a tree throwing coconuts at it and shouting insults. Not the best plan you guys ever came up with. Obviously, the T-Rex goes to try to eat them but...
...WHY ARE THESE GUYS STILL ALIVE ANYWAY? THEY'RE DINO-FOUR-YEAR-OLDS! A T-REX SHOULD BE ABLE TO OUTRUN THEM IN, LIKE, THREE SECONDS! WHY-
We're sorry, we're experiencing more technical difficulties. We thought that we fixed the problem, but apparently we didn't. We'll be right back.....
I'm sorry about that outburst. I'm better now, really. The nice men in white lab coats explained that some dinosaurs had sharp teeth to defend themselves, some had spikes to defend themselves, and other dinosaurs had plot armor to defend themselves from predators.
So, after knocking the T-Rex out with a falling rock... Gee, never seen THAT before. Isn't that how they solved the Sharptooth problem in the first movie? But it turns out that vine can't hold a sharptooth down as the other one comes back. It nearly eats Ducky (thank God) but she's saved by Petrie. You know what Petrie? I'm sick of you and your flying! You're the most annoying character and yet you're the most useful when it comes to fighting predators! Just, go away. No one likes you.
The T-Rex that was hit by the rock seems okay, and comes back to try and eat them once more. You know, I like these guys. They're impossible to kill. There's a brief chase scene and the kids trick one of the tyrannosaurs to bite the other. This results in a brief but friggin' epic fight between the two. Now you're talking! T-Rex fight! T-Rex fight! Sadly, it's over just before anyone can draw blood as they realize, "Oh, yeah, I'm hungry, and I don't need to resort to cannibalism yet. Let's go eat those dino-four-year-olds."
How To Mess Up Tyrannosaurs In A Movie About FRIGGIN' DINOSAURS
So, blah blah blah the grownup dinosaurs come along as save their children yadda yadda yadda. Everyone is reunited with their parents except for chomper, who becomes sad and runs off. No one cares though, because yay! We're a big happy dinosaur family! Except for sharpteeth. They can all go to hell for all we care.
The kids admit what happened with the egg stealers, and don't even get into trouble for running off after pedophile dinosaurs into the mysterious beyond where they're told daily never to go to and letting in killer tyrannosaurs that can and probably did kill someone. Yay for justice! Speaking of the struthifreaks, what happened to them? They couldn't have died, could they? That would be way too easy.
Whatever. The herbivores decide to seal the wall even though there's no proof that the sharpteeth have left yet. And that's not me being nitpicky, the tyrannosaurs really haven't left yet. Good plan. Seal them inside the valley with a ton of herbivores, that won't result in a bloodbath at all. Wait, on second thought, go ahead and do it, it'll make this movie more interesting. Littlefoot suddenly remembers, "Oh yeah, that t-rex kid I adopted, he disappeared. Maybe I should find him before he kills someone." He runs off to go find Chomper before anything awesome can happen to him. Yes, Littlefoot, go run off by yourself when there are two Sharpteeth roaming around looking for food. You know, it's awfully convenient that there happens to be two sharpteeth who showed up for mysterious reasons (besides, you know, the obvious eating stuff and going rawr thing) and that there's an orphan t-rex who wants to find his parents. HMMM.
Littlefoot does manage to find Chomper, who is happily chasing around a bug. See, Littlefoot? He doesn't really care. You know this kid is, like, one day old, right? He shouldn't even be walking, let alone think about his true parents. The two adult sharpteeth show up, though, and chase Littlefoot and Chomper through the valley. Littlefoot gets his foot caught in a log, and Chomper seems to leave him behind. Thank you, Chomper, please let him get eaten. But Chomper remembers that Littlefoot is the main character and he has to save him. He comes back and talks to the Tyrannosaurs in, well, Tyrannosaur language not to eat Littlefoot.
Wait, wait, wait. This kid is, like, a day old, and he spent his one day of life with herbivores. Why can he speak t-rex language? Language is something you have to learn, you're not just born able to recite Shakespeare. Whatever, the movie is almost over.
It turns out (here's a shocker) that the tyrannosaurs are really Chomper's parents! I never saw that coming! I was expecting Chomper's parents to be a space alien and that creepy pink dinosaur! The t-rex couple decide to be nice and not eat Littlefoot because he took good care of their hatchling. Again, I have to remember that the movie's almost over and questioning it will just take more time.
The tyrannosaurs leave Littlefoot, who is happy that he finally got that brat off his hands. Suddenly, the struthifreaks return and kidnap him! Damn, I thought they were dead. I can't have anything, can I? Not even a T-Rex fight that lasts for more than two seconds.
As they're leaving, Chomper hears Littlefoot screaming like a girl. By now I've lost all hope in his future, because he decides to go and rescue Littlefoot. The struthifreaks are dangling him off a cliff and... wait, why aren't they, you know, push him off? It's not necessary to...
IS THE MOVIE OVER YET?
Well, Chomper shows up and tries to scare them by using his shadow trick again to look bigger. The struthifreaks, using the half a dead brain cell that they have in total, realize that it's just a baby who isn't all that intimidating. They start to advance on Chomper with rape faces (look at my previous posts for that one picture if you want reference), when his parents show up. Apparently, Littlefoot can teleport now to Chomper's side. Anyway, the parents chase the strutifreaks out of the valley, presumably to be eaten. It's a happy ending so far.
Chomper leaves with his parents, and the gap in the wall is closed with a small pile of rocks that a sharptooth could simply climb over. It is stated that "Sharpteeth won't ever come back", which is true, except for the movies where sharpteeth do, in fact, come back. But this is the second movie, and they probably weren't planning for a million sequels at the time, so this is acceptable.
As every character is called back home by their parents, I realized something about Petrie. He's friggin' ghetto. He replied to his mother's call with "Comin', motha'." I'm assuming that the last part of the second word was censored.
So, blah blah blah Littlefoot is okay with being a kid for a while blah blah happy ending. The movie doesn't even end with the awesome song "If We Hold On Together" like the first movie did. Then again, the first movie wasn't a musical, so they could concentrate awesomeness into one ending song.
In conclusion, this movie was just... painful. Chomper is a pathetic excuse for a T-Rex, the actual tyrannosaurs were in it for about ten minutes, the main villains were gay, pedophiliac struthifreaks, and Littlefoot is one of the most annoying characters ever. In the first movie, he was hardcore, swearing revenge on the Sharptooth that killed his mother and eventually succeeding. In this movie and beyond, he's just a wimpy little goody-two-shoes who'll never hit puberty. You killed a T-Rex, man, you should be badass.
But this movie doesn't compare to the ridiculousness of the other movies (except for a few I refuse to criticize for nostalgia reasons). Let's just say that wimpy t-rex babies aren't as bad as dino-incest, a cowboy dinosaur (the lone dinosaur), the sun falling from the sky, alien dinosaurs, a transvestite stegosaurus, and dino-Thanksgiving. Not to mention that freaky pink dinosaur. This series is kinda messed up, isn't it?
You're probably wondering how it would have been if I had directed it. And if you're not wondering, you're going to find out anyway... Next post, because I'm already late as it is on publishing this one. Next time, I'll post my version of this movie. Until then, have a nice day, and remember: struthifreaks are people too... kinda.

Two Books That Should Exist
Hi! I was in Barnes and Noble the other day, trying to escape from the many vampire teen books (without success). I realized that there are so many books that should have been written! Such as...
A small excerpt: There are many ways to be "awesome". However, if you had to buy this book to figure this out, then you probably aren't even close. That is why pikachu and I wrote it. That, and they told us we'd be paid by the word. Pika pika chu pika. One way to be awesome is to own a pikachu. This is because pikachus are scientifically proven to boost your awesomeness level by 70%.
Table of Contents:
Chapter One: What is Awesomeness? pg 1
Chapter Two: Why I Am Better Than You In Every Way. pg 19
Chapter Three: Chuck Norris Theory pg 49
Chapter Four: The Ninja Factor pg 78
Chapter Five: Why Buying This Book Proves You Are Not Awesome At All pg 112
Chapter Six: Internet Memes and You pg 122
Chapter Seven: Choosing The Right Pillow Pet For You pg 142
Chapter Eight: How To Say No To Snuggies pg 169
Chapter Nine: Harry Potter; How To Make Friends With Just About Anyone pg 188
Chapter Ten: The Subtle Art of Toast pg 193
Chapter Eleven: Awesome People Don't Waste Their Lives Reading Long, Pointless Books pg 210
Another book from the great authors Laura and Pikachu.
A small excerpt: Yes, that fish is much smarter than you, and it's not even a fish. It's a drawing of a fish. Do you realize how sad that is? And yet, it is true. You may deny it, but deep down you know it's the truth. You probably think this book is about how to be better than the fish. Sadly, that isn't possible. This book is about why humanity has no hope to ever outsmart a drawing of a fish.
Table of Contents:
Chapter One: That Fish Never Went to College! pg 3
Chapter Two: An Overview of the General Population pg 21
Chapter Three: Why Reality TV Will Bring About The End of Civilization pg 42
Chapter Four: How Each And Every Genre of Music is Leading to the End of Society pg 81
Chapter Five: Pika Pi Pikachu Chu Pi Pi Pika pg 110
Chapter Six: What Would Happen if the Internet Disappeared pg 149
Chapter Seven: Seven Tips to Surviving the Collapse pg 194
Chapter Eight: Why We Should Replace the Government With A Dead Fish pg 232

Laura's Great Valley Adventure (part 3)
![]() |
| They just realized that there are eleven more movies after this one. |
Stranger Danger! Stranger Danger!
So we last left off with Littlefoot's friends cornered by the strutifreaks as Littlefoot found Chomper. I'm quickly losing all hope that Chomper is going to behave like a normal T-Rex. He hasn't really done anything awesome besides being generally cooler than the other characters. That's not a big accomplishment... Anyway, Littlefoot hears his friends screaming because, well, you've seen the egg stealers. He leaves Chomper again to go save them. Like that was successful the first time. Don't turn your back, Littlefoot, he still has a chance to eat someone. But, really, I doubt it. Let's compare Tyrannosauruses, shall we?
First Movie: Second Movie:
![]() |
| RAWR! I'M A FRIGGIN' T-REX AND AND I'LL EAT YOU! THAT'S MY THING! |
![]() |
| It has eyelashes. EYELASHES. |
Yeah. It's kinda depressing. Come on Chomper, I still have some hope for you. Just do something that the original Sharptooth probably did as a child. You know, like mass murder and stuff. I don't really know what T-rexes do for fun during their childhood. I assume it involves going rawr and flying around in dino-jetpacks (they have those now).
So Littlefoot runs off to go find his friends. Yes, because an adult couldn't help them at all in this situation. Just get a triceratops, run around a little and poke a few things with your horns, and done. It's not that complicated. But because Littlefoot is the main character, he has to do this himself. The egg eaters have the kids cornered at the edge of a cliff (convenient) and are demanding that they give back the egg that they rightfully stole. The one with the fetish sounds like they kidnapped his true love or something. Hey, maybe they did. But they tell him that it hatched, and he refuses to believe it. He then notices Littlefoot and proceeds to jump on top of him. Woah. Wait. Did I see that right? I wish I had a picture to put but then this blog may be labeled with "Adult Content".
![]() |
| Meow. |
in the distance. Hmmmm. I wonder it could be. Everyone, even Littlefoot, mistakes it for a large T-Rex. The strutifreaks totally panic and jump off the side of the cliff. Good riddance. The kids cower, waiting for the T-Rex to eat them. But it turns out it's only Chomper. Gee, never saw that coming.
![]() |
| I found this somewhere. It's awesome. |
So, yeah. They start liking Chomper now that he saved them from the pedophiles. Do you blame them? The strutifreaks creep me out, and they're animated dinosaurs. Maybe I should actually look up their names to be less confusing.
Nah.
We're All One Big Happy Dino-Family
![]() |
| Where's the bloody carnage and the earthquake-torn wasteland? |
...Wait... Who is that pink dinosaur?
...No, really. Who is that? Why do I not recognize her (or him, I'm not here to judge)? I would recognize a pink dinosaur. For that matter, why is the dinosaur pink? That can't be natural. I know that no one knows what color dinosaurs were, but can you really imagine a pink velociraptor running around? Who is this, though? I NEED ANSWERS.
![]() |
| "No, guys, really. I know I'm awesome. I'm a T-Rex, ain't I? Which means, of course, I'm completely superior to you." |
Well, getting back to the movie, the kids can't just say how they accept Chomper. They have to sing about it of course, you silly person. They start circling him and chanting "We're a family and you're one of us now" over and over again.
This is starting to sound like some kind of creepy cult ritual.
During the "song", all of the characters have their own verse to tell Chomper what they think. Petrie offers to teach Chomper how to fly in return for being taught how to be scary. Sorry, Petrie, but you're no more intimidating than a very small dust bunny. And as cool as a flying Tyrannosauruses would be, I'm pretty sure Chomper is stashing a jetpack somewhere. He just has to be.
I do find it cute that they're singing a song about being a family (no matter how awful it is) when they were incredibly racist in the first movie and learned to accept each other by the end.
Oh my God. Did I just praise this movie? Oh no! I need to compensate with something nitpicky! The only problem is, something good happens!
![]() |
| Yeah, that's right, I went there. |
After being scolded, Chomper runs away from them. Run, Chomper, run! You can make it to Jurassic Park this time! Just go through the gaping hole in the side of the valley that was left from the landslide! You know, someone ought to fix that before, you know, a cool dinosaur comes in. I bet the velociraptors are planning their attack right now.
The kids, of course, decide to go look for Chomper because they don't want a baby sharptooth running around the valley. I think it would have been cool if he hid away for his childhood, grew up into a big T-Rex, and then returned to seek havoc on the Great Valley and Littlefoot's peeps. I sighed at this point, knowing my ideas for making this movie awesome would never come to be. All I really want right now is a dinosaur that does dinosaur things. Where's my velociraptor pack? My tyrannosauruses with flamethrowers? I guess nothing interesting is ever going to happen...
Wait, what's this? We transitioned to something...
...OH MY GOD.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! YEEEESSSS!

My high is quickly destroyed by the fact that the strutifreaks aren't dead. They are very much alive and looking for a new egg to eat, cracking egg puns along the way (heh heh, cracking eggs... I can do it too). This is a brief scene, but it's just enough to ruin any effect the Tyrannosauruses had.
So, Littlefoot and co. are looking for Chomper. They start complaining about being hungry... for some reason. I dunno, they needed filler I guess. But in a movie with T-friggin'-Rexes in it, you don't need filler than doesn't involve dinosaur fights and rawring. They finally find Chomper chasing a bug up an erupting volcano. He's just that badass.

Question! Why is the volcano erupting? Isn't this Dino-Eden? I asked this before, haven't I? And if there is an erupting volcano, why aren't the parents worried about the whereabouts of their children? If they are worried, don't make us infer it. This is a kid's movie, you need a scene with the parents panicking. But, no, erupting volcanos aren't a concern for them, I guess. It's not like it's exploding, there's just smoke and lava running down the side and the occasional flying rock. They even made volcano eruptions boring.
Meanwhile, the strutifreaks (why are we still focusing on them?) are looking for more eggs to eat. They find a nest perched precariously on the side of a cliff. That's a good place for a nest. In their attempt to eat the eggs, they almost fall off the cliff. I'm not going to question how that works. Before they can eat, however, a huge pterodactyl chases them away. They seek refuge in a small dark cave, where I'm sure many X-rated things are bound to happen. Come on, two gay pedophiles, one small dark cave? Do the math.

They run, but are cornered on a ledge by the strutifreaks who apparently can teleport now! Behind them is the lava flow, coming at them quicker than real lava could move on flat ground! To the right is a large rock cliff, and the other side is a bottomless chasm! How will they get out of this situation? Will I care? When are the tyrannosauruses going to get here? Where is Chomper's jetpack? And who is that pink dinosaur? Part four is on the way!
I meant to only have three parts, but I somehow stretched it out enough to need a fourth part. At least that'll be the climax. Hopefully we'll see more T-Rex and less strutifreaks. Until then, see ya.
Weasels
Here's some awesome pictures of weasels to prove that I'm still alive.
Part 3 of the Land Before Time thing should be up soonish.
Maybe I should do more of my actual classwork...
