Judith Barsi, who did the voice for Ducky, was murdered by her father four months before the film's release. Judith was only ten years old. Her headstone includes her famous line in this film, "Yep! Yep! Yep!"
It was the highest grossing animated film of all time until The Little Mermaid (1989).
The role of Ducky was Judith Barsi's favorite of her own film roles.
Throughout production, the film underwent a severe cutting and editing of footage. Steven Spielberg and George Lucas thought that some scenes in the movie would appear too dark and intense for young children. Spielberg told Don Bluth while looking at the scenes from the film, "It's too scary. We'll have kids crying in the lobby, and a lot of angry parents. You don't want that." About 19 scenes comprising of 10 minutes of footage, mostly pertaining to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the five characters in mild peril or distress was cut or trimmed. Bluth was unhappy with the cuts, and fought to keep the footage, but felt like he had to do so, making this film only 69 minutes, one of his shortest. He claims to have a personal copy of the film reel with the whole thing, though no word on whether or not it will ever see the light of day.
The film's theme song, "If We Hold on Together", was sung by Diana Ross and became a huge hit in Japan. It did so well there that it became a karaoke standard.
"Littlefoot's mother: Let your heart guide you. It whispers so listen closely."
"Rooter: Hey. What's going on here? [Littlefoot cries] Rooter: What's your problem? You're not hurt. Littlefoot: It's not fair. She should have known better. That was a Sharptooth. It's all her fault. Rooter: All whose fault? Littlefoot: Mother's. Rooter: Oh... I see. I see. Littlefoot: I've never wandered so far from home! Rooter: Oh, it's not your fault. It's not your mother's fault. Now, you pay attention to old Rooter. It is nobody's fault. The great circle of life has begun. But see, not all of us arrive together at the end. Littlefoot: What'll I do? I miss her so much. Rooter: And you'll always miss her. But she'll always be with you, as long as you remember the things she taught you. In a way, you'll never be apart, for you are still part of each other. Littlefoot: My tummy hurts. Rooter: Well - that, too, will go away with time, little fella. Only in time."
