- Accidentally Correct Zoology: During the "Flip, Flap, and Fly" song, a baby pterosaur is shown flying right after hatching. This is exactly what we now think baby pterosaurs did, but at the time the movie came out, it was still controversial and seldom discussed.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Guido, mainly for his awkwardness and being a surprisingly mature character.
- Genius Bonus: Guido is a Microraptor. One of the three known species of Microraptor is Microraptor gui. As in GUI - do.
- Surprisingly Improved Sequel: The movie is considered an improvement over The Land Before Time XI: Invasion of the Tinysauruses, which is one of the more maligned sequels in the series along with The Land Before Time XIII: The Wisdom of Friends (which ironically is this movie's sequel).
