Im Land der Saurier II

I never saw the original. I read up on it and looked into it some more on the internet, and I'm going to have to say the remake definitely gives it justice. I don't think it really matters if the show wasn't as scientifically proved or logical as the old one from the 70's. The concept is fine and was made for a younger audience. It is not something that should be judged by validity of the story line much as the entertainment, colorful world, and characters it brought with it. The show totally rules, but some of the cast was cheesy (but don't we all like that sometimes). There was the mini dinosaur Tasha and the sasquatch guy Stink! The villains were amusing and so was the irony that the (motherless) family that get lost happens to meet a perfect replacement with a woman who had been lost in the world since she was a child! You totally want them to hook up in the show.. haha. I watched it when I was younger.. I like the nostalgic TV shows. I am an 80's TV fan, and i think 80's TV held strong, with influence well throughout the 90's. I can't say I would ever expect a show like this to air again with the shows on TV today.

It's just one of the best memories of my childhood

As a major fan of the original Land of the Lost, I was excited to hear there would be a remake. I was unsure whether it would be a retelling of the original story, or something new. I was disappointed by it initially, but it grew on me over time. It would have benefited by having better writing! Having missed the first episode, I was confused by Christa at first. I thought maybe she was supposed to be Holly, years later! Even though it turned out to be an "alternate universe", and not the original Land, I still enjoyed it. Christa was great, with her pet triceratops. The Sleestak were OK, but I felt like they should have been called something else - they were more like orcs than Sleestak. The one part that bothered me the most was that the family never ran out of batteries or fuel! Maybe it was some mysterious unknown quality of the Land... batteries never die!

The new Land Of The Lost was a total disappointment to me. I thoroughly loved the original - it had great dinosaurs for the time, and the new one had dinosaurs that weren't good for this time. The family in the original was very real - the kids fought, but their love for each other shone through. The original sleestaks were far scarier than the newer ones, and the backgrounds, the special effects, were so cool on the original. The story and effects on the new Land Of The Lost were so crazy - a jeep, a bush bunny named Christa, and an extremely unreal looking baby dinosaur. All that said, I hope that the new one will somehow be as much of an enjoyment, a life-changing, never-to-be-forgotten experience as the original was for this LOTL-er when she was seven years old.

When I was around 5 years old this new Land of The Lost came out. Like any 5 year old I had no idea it was a remake. I'm 16 now and I still have a vague recalection of these "remake" episodes. If you'd ask me I loved it. Although I havn't seen the older ones, if they're better than these I need to try to find one and watch it.
