* ShownTheirWork: Rather than sitting on Tricia's egg, Cera's parents incubate it by covering it with grass. It's theorized that this is exactly what certain dinosaurs did in real life (the fermenting vegetation would have warmed the eggs, and a ''Triceratops'' would likely be heavy enough to crush its eggs if it tried to sit on them.) And while it might be a [[AccidentallyCorrectZoology coincidence]], we also see a baby pterosaur able to fly from the moment it hatches out of its egg, which lines up very well with recent ideas about how young pterosaurs developed.

* InformedSpecies: Guido is supposed to be a ''Microraptor'', but with his toothless parrot-like beak, lack of claws (including its raptorial claw), and more humanoid frame he barely looks like the real animal.

An important event is coming up: the Day of the Flyers, when all the young flyers will have to fly in formation to prove themselves. Petrie is having a hard time preparing, as he flies better solo.

Meanwhile, a strange, feathered creature named Guido appears in the Valley, and Littlefoot and friends try to help him figure out what he is. On top of that, Cera's family gets a new addition when her father and Tria have a baby.

* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "Many changes had occurred on this day of changes," as pointed out by WebVideo/MarzGurl.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: At the beginning of the film, Petrie accidentally messes up during practice for the titular event and later that night, he gets chewed out by his angry siblings.

'''Petrie's sibling 2''': Yeah, you don't pay attention!\\

'''Petrie's sibling 1''': You go up when we go down, and you go ''down'' when we go ''up''!\\
'''All siblings''': You're ''hopeless''!
* ToothyBird: Guido, the ''Microraptor'' is a sort of ''inversion''. He looks like your usual toothy bird, only having teeth in certain instances. He really should have had teeth the whole time. Sharp ones. He also lacked the big toe claw that microraptors had. The movie acted like he was just a weird-looking modern bird instead of the tiny deinonychosaur that he was.
