I think a lot of the Don Bluth films are underated (Except Land Before Time which is the ultimate "OMG I hope that doesn't happen to my fandom" movie. They are on sequel what? 11? )

They're on sequel "We'd better stop numbering them now because even we think we're getting ridiculous...but yet...we can't stop...it's like drugs!"
Although, I do LOVE the ORIGINAL Land Before Time. I just watched it at the end of last school year and hadn't seen it in at least 6 years...oh, it was wonderful. |

Just go and rent "24 hour photo" then you'll see Robin in not a funny role. |
Or Good Will Hunting. You know, the SERIOUS role he got an OSCAR for |
Good Will Hunting? With Matt Damon and Ben Affleck? I'm trying to recall if Robin is in there. Remind me what role did he play? Or Was it "Dead Poets Society" that you recall?
The reason I said "24 hour photo". Because it's a like a pschyo thriller and Robin was the psycho in that one. It's really hard to see him in that kind if role than the type of movies that he's in. |

Then there's Patch Adams, the happy medium!
Was Thumbelina a Don Bluth film? Because that one WASN'T all that good. At least it was an accomplishment visually, because the rest of it hurts to watch!  _________________ You can never have too much Baklava.

I love Don Bluth movies! One of the main reasons they really appeal to me is that they're so much more serious than other animated films - not that they don't have their humor, but the general storylines, when you look at them, are actually pretty serious and reflect real-life problems to degrees that other companies don't ususally dare to do.
And a lot of them have Dom Deluise. That's always a plus.
One of my cousins used to watch The Land Before Time so much that I was positively sick of it, but I could probably stand to watch it now. As for the sequels, I saw one of them and that was more than enough. As a general rule, the only thing the sequels to the original Don Bluth films have managed to do was defile the originals. They completely lost the original spirit, becoming too silly - probably more "kid friendly" or something.
All the same, though, I did enjoy Fivel Goes West. Tiger's antics were priceless.  _________________

A happy medium ? A medium is a doctor? Oh...Wait....Now I get it.
Medical and Comedian: Medium. Wait...that didn't look right... or was it a mispelling?
Like Median.
When you said medium. It means psychic. |

The term "happy medium" generally refers to a point of balance between two extremes that works out well.
For example, "My latest project was stressing me out but I really didn't want to give it up, so I had to find a happy medium." _________________
