In December 2023, a post circulated on social media claiming that Disney and Pixar were set to release a remake of the beloved animated classic "The Land Before Time" in January 2025. This rumor, which included a fake movie poster featuring characters from the original film, sparked excitement and confusion among fans. However, the source of this announcement was a satirical Facebook page, YODA BBY ABY, known for spreading fake news and humorous content.
On December 11, 2023, users shared the post widely, many believing it to be true. The post excitedly proclaimed, “Get ready to embark on a prehistoric escapade like never before!” and suggested an enchanting adventure awaited fans. Unfortunately, the post was not genuine, and the page itself was dedicated to satire.
The original "The Land Before Time" film, released in 1988, was a product of Don Bluth's direction, with Steven Spielberg and George Lucas as executive producers. While the idea of a remake from Disney and Pixar might have seemed plausible, especially given their history of revitalizing classic stories, this particular rumor was unfounded and purely fictional.
As the rumor spread, many fans expressed their anger and confusion at the supposed changes to beloved characters based on the fake poster. It highlighted how easily misinformation can circulate in the age of social media.
The YODA BBY ABY Facebook page's bio clearly stated its content was satirical, but this did not stop thousands from sharing the post, often without verifying the information. This situation serves as a reminder of the importance of fact-checking before reacting to viral content.
The original "The Land Before Time" holds a special place in the hearts of many. Released in 1988, it introduced audiences to Littlefoot, the young Apatosaurus, and his friends as they journeyed through a prehistoric landscape. The film's themes of friendship, loss, and perseverance resonate with viewers even today.
Despite the numerous direct-to-video sequels and a TV series that followed, Disney and Pixar have never been involved in the franchise. This further underscores the improbability of their involvement in a remake, as their focus has typically been on original content that builds upon their own established stories.
