Is this thread strictly for dinosaurs or are dinosaur-adjacent creatures allowed? Asking because I love pterosaurs, especially the really weird ones like Quetzalcoatlus and Anurognathus. Look at that silly thing, it looks like a potoo:

This thing looks like this little shivering, sad+crying Precambrian Critter I made on craiyon or somewhere

I watched first few episodes
I thought it would have been shitty ripoff of tmnt but nah it's good actually
First episode is so outlandish in good way. It just starts with alien turning dinosaurs into anthropomorfic muscle men only for them to just fuck off and leave him alone.For intro the singer didn't need to go this raw for vocals
I was surprised i really vibe with show and characters.
 
Tangentially related to dinosaurs, but can anyone recommend a documentary similar in quality to Prehistoric Planet, but covers the asteroid strike that supposedly caused the extinction of the dinosaurs and the immediate aftermath after the impact?

The only dinosaur documentary that actually focuses on the impact of the meteor (and not just as a backdrop to the final episode) is The Last Day of the Dinosaurs. It's pretty good, but it's not as accurate as Prehistoric Planet.
 
I am surprised with all the autism on this website. I thought that this thread would be more popular.

Anyway, I will like to add some fun facts that I keep in my pocket.

> Sharks are older than the rings of Saturn and trees
>The Stegosaurus has the smallest brain for its body size of any known dinosaur. ( An actual doofus )
> Dinosaurs often swallowed large rocks. These rocks stayed in the stomach and helped them grind up food.
> Brontosaurus are not a real dinosaur.

Also my favorite is a deinonychus
 
I finally got around to watching the Walking with Dinosaurs reboot, and it sucked ass. I was expecting Prehistoric Planet with the Walking with Dinosaurs name slapped on, but instead all I got was this schizo doc that constantly shifts back between dinosaurs and paleontologists. Half the running time of each episode is dedicated to people digging up fossils, which is completely antithetical to the core concept of WWD, which is to present dinosaurs in the same manner as modern animals in nature documentaries.

This problem alone killed the series for me, but it also has tons of other issues. Every episode save for the last one takes place in the Cretaceous era, even though two of the most iconic episodes of the original show took place in the Jurassic. Triassic got fucked over with no episode dedicated to it. The dinosaur models themselves are great, with some exceptions like Lusotitan, but they move really stiffly and awkwardly. Pterosaurs and marine reptiles are an afterthought and given no focus. There are no animatronics, and the soundtrack is lame and gay. Doesn't even come close to Benjamin Bartlett's amazing OST.

Overall it was lazy and soulless, like all current-year reboots, and it's clear they just took a bog-standard dinosaur doc and slapped the nostalgic name on it.
