I always love the way this movie looks. It’s a unique style that seems to be exclusive to this film. It is trying to be a Disney or Bluth film story and character wise, but the style of the animation, colors, and lighting is not like any other animated film from the 90’s.

I dont mean to argue or make any negative light but i will say this. Is it ever really TRYING to be either of those movies tho? I think ppl get a bit over their assumptions when it comes to styles of animation n shit....like....guys...its a movie about dinosaurs comin back to new york city! WHOA! COULDA YOU IMAGINE?! whereas land before time was all LIFE SUCKS! YOUR MOM DIES WHEN YER 2YRS OF AGE FIND YOUR WAY TO YOUR GRANDPARENTS! HERES A FUCKIN MAPLE LEAF! NOW GIT GOIN AND MAKE FRIENDS WITH EVERYONE CEPT FOR CERA. SHES A DICK. And i think during the 90s was when dinosaurs were THE BEES KNEES. Everyone wanted to tell a story about em in some way or another. Trying to use the same characters? I would have to disagree...aside from there being dinosaurs i dont see how WERE BACK is trying to be a carbon copy of anything than just a fun idea. A movie to shut your brain off too. Yknow? But thats just of course my opinion. 🦕🦖🐊🦈

Fun fact: there was a deleted scene where Screw eyes explains to the dinosaurs how he lost his eye. As a kid he took a nap under a tree when a berry fell near his eye and than a crow swoops in after the berry and takes his eye instead. He develops a fear of crows and eventually becomes insane and obsessed with conquering his fear and exploiting other peoples fears. That’s why he surrounds himself with crows and has a circus centered around scaring people. A good chunk of animation and pre-voice work were done. A shame they took it out.

It's so weird he voiced this villain, but then did a character that came around and also a sweet old longneck dinosaur in Land Before Time

I actually love this movie even if people think it's dumb. I adored just how the dinos just accepted their newfound humanity, the wishes were so damn special, the demon circus was something I'd absolutely want to attend as a weird adult. No idea why the crows devoured screweyes. The story is solid for most of the way and I felt a real connection with the kids, being a neglected child myself who just wanted to run away and be happy. There's a lot of really good moving parts to the story.

Not only was John Goodman the voice of Rex here, but he also was the narrator of When Dinosaurs Roamed America.

The fart reverb part had me laughing until my stomach hurt, lord have mercy 🤣

The movie itself is completely bonkers, but the animation is so damn gorgeous.

If there’s one thing I’ll agree with Watchmojo, this put this film on their list for “great animated films that don’t deserve a rotten rating on Rotten Tomatoes”

I don't think many folks point this out, but one thing I still love about this film is how beautiful it is art and color wise. The inside of the ship is so warm and calming, the circus is appropriately nightmarish with it's toxic greens and deep hues, and the parade scene just captures the vivid color against the monochrome city. This movie is seriously underappreciated as a visual feast, with or without it's bonkers plot lol

I used to sing along to ALL the songs and I remember watching it 5 times in a row when I was sick, it’s a really fun movie and it brings me joy as a dinosaur ( and other prehistoric creatures) nerd :)

I can't count how many times I watched this as a kid- literally my favorite children's movie of all time (but who wasn't obsessed with dinos)

I watched this movie a lot back when I was a little kid. As an adult, I'm not sure if it's a good movie. All I really know is that I still love it.

Cecelia is voiced by none other than the same person who did Lisa Simpson When I found that out I said “yeah that explains why she sound like a nerd”

The scene where the evil professor is describing how he keeps crows around him in his cave because he wants to conquer his fear of them made me think of batman lmao 😂😂 (and the following comment by the dinosaur lol)

I haven't seen this movie sinse Doug Walker reviewed it. I found it amusing that he didn't get the point. The movie's message is clearly telling kids running away from home is dangerous, and shows them not to trust strangers.

Saber loves this movie too! Grew up on this one and i loved it. Good to know he has great taste 😂

What a nostalgic trip! We're Back! is definitely one of those films you don't remember the plot, but the character designs most. Definitely a film for the late 90s and early 2000s kids to remember. I love this movie as a kid! 🥰

I remember watching this as a kid even though I was born in 2003 My parents raised me of of these kind of movies from the 80s 90s and 2000s especially Disney, Warner Brothers, and Universal Studios on the light of their era!

Well, Saber, you aren't alone as I loved this film as a kid! It's a pity that it bombed & some consider it a bad film, but I think it was judged way to harshly & cause everyone tried to compare it to other films like Land Before Time & Disney! Heck, some even tried to compare it to Jurassic Park, which I personally feel was wrong as its an animated film! Sure, it's not anything mind-blowing, but to me, it's a solid film for kids & I always did like the song, Roll Back The Rock!

One thing I love about this film is that it’s as easy to love and appreciate as it is to rip into and make fun of. I think most people get that vibe from this movie. Especially saber

Finally.... Someone else who remembers and loves this movie as much as I do!!!

Despite the issues with the movie, I still like We're Back. It is such a weird movie, bazar script, and strange concept. I can't think of anything like it.

LORD GERTIE WAS MENTIONED! You are accepted and recognized by the cult of Gertie

The funny thing about the contract the kids signed is that in many cases, minors can't be held to the terms of a contract until they reach the age of majority. In other words, a minor has the right to opt out of a contract, even if the other party is an adult and is bound by the terms. Therefore, from the minor's perspective, a contract in most instances is a good faith agreement but not a legally enforceable one, so yeah, ScrewEyes didn't have a legal leg to stand on, not that the kids or Dinosaurs were legal savvy enough to know that its not really a plot hole as the kids & Dinosaurs are likely ignorant of contract law! Though given how the blood turns into a signature, you could argue it is some kind of magical contract. Thus, there might be consequences for breaking it, especially since it was literally signed in blood!

I couldn't praise the emotions in this movie enough as a kid and as a adult.❤Amblimation is peak in their talented animators 🎥 Those "I wish I had a friend" "let no bad happen!" And seeing seeing the girl in the photo with her family at the end really hit the heartstrings ❤

Grew up with them and didn't even realize it!

That moment when Rex does that purr just weirds me out so much lol

I unironically still kinda love this movie. I can see how flawed it is, but it is still something I'll put on if I'm unwell or feeling low. It's just so unabashedly corny

There's a deleted scene that makes Screweyes a much more interesting character and explains why he's missing an eye, why he's obsessed with scaring people, and why he keeps the crows around despite the fact that he's clearly scared of them. It also kinda frames the scene at the end with the crows in possibly a more abstract light - not that they literally took him away, but that once he lost his circus, he was so overwhelmed by his fears and that he went off into obscurity and was never seen again. Possibly. This movie's fuckin' weird.

We're Back! and Kiki's Delivery Service are the 2 movies I have my earliest childhood memory of having ever seen. They both mean soooo much to me. Kiki gets plenty of love but I feel this movie gets bashed so much and that makes me sad. I still love this movie a lot!!! It brings me joy!!

I had this movie on VHS with the Finnish dub when I was a kid. After many, many years I came across it on KZread just yesterday. Talk about a blast from the past. It was one of my favorite movies back then, and it actually still is. I now understand certain aspects of it so much better. Back when I used to watch it, it was mostly just a fun dinosaur movie with a really catchy song. I'm so happy that people are still talking about it because it should never be forgotten.

Yeah this one came out in my early teens I still got the original VHS. It's a good movie. There are scenes that occasionally pop up in my mind throughout the year. That's how you know you have a classic if it's relatible over the course of several decades °~•.☆.•~°

Saber, your first grade self had good taste. uwu No, but really, I legitimately enjoyed this film as a kid as well. I feel your need of nostalgia here. ;w; We're Back may not be the best movie out there, but damn do I love that it is a weird romp AND ROLL BACK THE ROCK IS A GREAT SONG. Though, I do agree with Rishi on wishing the film would have leaned a little more into the darker aspects. Even as a kid, I found that angle enormously more interesting than the rest of the film. I also haven't seen this film in ages, but definitely do see the strangeness with the digital aspects of the animation. The shift to digital colouring for animation (or even adding 3D elements) at this time was indeed rougher for some studios than others, and it is a little jarring to see it today for sure. We've come a long way on that.

Truly one of the best films

Is saber okay? I mean this in the least rude way possible, but his laugh every time he plays the fart sound sounds like he's dying 😭

I never knew Steven Spielberg was involved with this movie. It's interesting reading about this movie's production.

*The following is the opinion of a Salty SEAGULL named EARL who just shows up in my posts whenever he feels like it!* [EARL the Salty SEAGULL:] "So nice to see the crows in this be depicted as saving the day as that crow pressed the button that freed Rex from ScrewEyes control! Also, the flock taking down ScrewEyes at the end was awesome & makes perfect sense as us modern birds are avian dinosaurs, so the crows were just helping out their non-avian cousins (while Rex should have feathers, it was pretty common in the 90s to depict T-Rex & Raptors without them & we have to remember this film was made by Steven Spielberg's company Amblimation & did feature an Easter egf of a Jurassic Park movie poster as the film was released the same year as Jurassic Park)! Also boo for not listening to Little Ricard's cover of Roll Back the Rock, which plays during the credits!"
