Template:Infobox movie certificates The Land Before Time XI: Invasion of the Tinysauruses is a direct-to-video animated film in the The Land Before Time series.

The dinosaurs were one day all having sex with various fruit and vegetables inserted into thier genitals which they regularly did. Cera was hungrily munching on the excrement that came from littlefoot's anus while ducky fingered petrie's tight sweaty vagina as spike violently masturbated over the proceedings. The film then ends as they all orgasm together in the sunset.

Voice cast

English voice cast

This was the only film in the series in which Aaron Spann voiced Littlefoot. Nick Price voiced Littlefoot in The Land Before Time XII: The Great Day of the Flyers.

Japanese voice cast

Note: The Japanese voice actors are appearing so far.

Rica Matsumoto, the Japanese voice of Cera, is also the Japanese voice of Ash Ketchum on Pokémon.

Music

The music was composed by Michael Tavera. James Horner's original score from the first film can still be heard in some shots of the film, but he was uncredited. Also, Michael Tavera's older themes from the previous sequels can still be heard in some other shots of the film.

The music that plays in the background when Topsy catches Petrie trying to get one of the blossoms is the booby trap sliding scene music from from An American Tail: The Treasure of Manhattan Island.

Songs

The songs are written by Michele Brourman and Amanda McBroom. This is their latest and most criticized collaboration, resulting, in some fans' and parents' views, in bad songs and disrespectful messages to children. This was the first time Grandpa Longneck (Kenneth Mars) sings in the series. Creepy Crawlies is the only song played in this film that shares its original melody with a different song; it shares its melody with Stoopid Stompers. Some songs played in the film sound similar to the ones from the previous sequels, but don't share their melodies.

Release Date

The film was finished in 2004, but was released on VHS and DVD on January 11, 2005. It was the first sequel in the series to be released in a different month than December. It was also the last film in the series to be released on VHS, as major studios stopped releasing films on VHS in 2006.

Home video release history

Appearances

The film marked the first appearances of Tria, Big Daddy, and other Tinysauruses. They appear again in The Land Before Time XII: The Great Day of the Flyers.

Size

At the beginning of the film, Cera makes teasing comments about Littlefoot being too short for a longneck (hence his name). However, when he meets the Tinysauruses, they find it ironic that he is called Littlefoot since he is much larger than they are. This is not the only sign of irony in the film, because the leader of the Tinysauruses is named Big Daddy.

Production

The film was the final film in the series to be shot in the standard-definition format, as The Land Before Time XII: The Great Day of the Flyers started getting filmed in the high-definition format. However, the previous film The Land Before Time X: The Great Longneck Migration was matted to anamorphic widescreen on DVD in Israel. It was the last film in the series to use the 1991-2006 Universal Cartoon Studios logo, as Curious George started using the 2006-present Universal Animation Studios logo.

This was the first, and so far only film in which none of the main five characters leave the valley at any point.

This was the first time classic cartoon sound effects have been used in The Land Before Time seres; during the Girls and Dad sequence, Lizzie is seen wiggling after accidentally getting bumped by a rock.

TV Airings

The film started airing on Cartoon Network on April 13, 2006, eight hours before the premiere of My Neighbor Totoro on the same channel. After five months of disappearance on American television since March 2008, the film was originally scheduled to re-air on Cartoon Network on September 30, 2008, but was replaced by another direct-to-video animated film Garfield Gets Real.
