"Жердің алғашқы заманы IV: Тұманға саяхат"

The Land Before Time IV: Journey Through the Mists is a 1996 American direct to video animated adventure musical film produced by Universal Animation Studios (formerly known as Universal Cartoon Studios) and directed by Roy Allen Smith. It is the fourth installment in the Land Before Time series as well as the final installment to feature any cast members from the original film. The film was nominated for two Annie Awards. This was also the final film to feature Linda Gary as the voice of Grandma Longneck, as she died on October 5, 1995.

Littlefoot notices Longnecks entering the Great Valley and informs his grandparents, who say that the Longnecks are their cousins and that they must greet them. Leader the Old One tells the Great Valley's residents that her herd has been migratory ever since a period of rain turned their old home into "The Land of Mists," a marshland which became the home of dangerous creatures. Later, Littlefoot meets Ali, a female Longneck, and invites her to play. He introduces her to his friends, but being not used to associating with diverse species, she is afraid of them. Meanwhile, Littlefoot's Grandpa becomes ill. According to the Old One, the illness is lethal to any dinosaur unless they eat the petals of the "golden night flower", which only grows in the Land of Mists. When Littlefoot's Grandma asks who should take her to the night flower, the Longnecks refuse to take her there due to the risk. Knowing that his grandpa could die, Littlefoot is determined to save him and asks Ali to take him there. She agrees on the condition that Cera, Ducky, Petrie and Spike do not come along, claiming that they will only slow them down. As the pair pass through a cave, an earthshake causes stalagmites and stalactites to crash down, separating them. Ali returns to the Valley and convinces Littlefoot's friends to help her free him. Meanwhile, Littlefoot tries to find a way out and meets Archie, an old male Archelon who helps him dig through the rocks. Littlefoot and Archie are eventually interrupted by a mostly blind Deinosuchus named Dil and an Ichthyornis named Ichy, who intend to eat them. Dil and Ichy pursue Littlefoot and Archie, but are knocked out when Ali and Littlefoot's friends dig a hole in a nearby wall and send rocks tumbling down on them. Archie shows Littlefoot and his friends a way to the Land of Mists and reminds them to stay close together before departing. In the Land of Mists, Cera is separated from the group. The others meet a Megazostrodon that Ducky names Tickles. Tickles helps them find Cera. However, Cera falls into a river and is pursued by Dil and Ichy. Ali saves Cera and distracts the predators, after which Cera softens her earlier stance towards Ali. Later, Ali explains her prejudicial behavior, having never interacted with species outside of her own, but remarks that her attitude towards Littlefoot's friends has now changed. The seven stop for the night and realize they are in a field of night flowers after they bloom and stock up on them. As they make their way home, Ichy and Dil return for another attack. During a chase, Petrie is grabbed by Ichy but rescued by Tickles, who tricks Ichy into biting Dil's tail rather than Petrie's stomach, giving him time to rejoin his friends. Dil becomes upset at Ichy, but they resume the chase after Cera gives their alternate hiding spot away, during which Ducky falls into a river and becomes unconscious. Spike then speaks for the first time by calling out Ducky's name, which awakens her as she is about to be consumed by Dil. Ichy comes up to Littlefoot and says that he and the others are going to be his and Dil's next targets. Ducky escapes when Spike uses his tail to knock Ichy toward Dil's open jaws as she tries to consume Ducky, but she instead gets Ichy after mistaking him for Ducky. Dil chomps Ichy by accident. Ichy escapes that, and the two get into another argument. The two eventually declare that they have had enough of each other and are going their separate ways forever. Later, after swatting Ichy away with her tail, Dil bumps into a Hydrotherosaurus, who chases her away. With the predators gone, Littlefoot and company say goodbye to Tickles and head home. They give Littlefoot’s Grandpa the flowers to eat and he fully recovers hours later. Ali then leaves with her herd, but not before trying to convince Spike to say goodbye, which he does not, as he is too interested in consuming leaves.
