Land Before Time Retrospective #21
I love the snowball fight, definitely one of the cutest scenes of the series for me. It starts off on a rather alarming note when Ducky gets mad at Spike and throws a snowball at him, but from there it turns into a pleasant moment where all the dinosaurs – hatchlings and grown-ups alike – truly discover snow for the first time and how much fun it can be. It acts as a nice breather moment before the rest of the film when the snowfall gets more intense, and then Spike leaves the valley.
I also like how Mr. Threehorn initially gets annoyed at Petrie for hitting him with a snowball, but then he loosens up and decides to join in on the action as well. “Hey Longneck, here it comes!”
