[Vanessa Howl]

Dinosaurs are cool.

I know this. You know this. Let's talk about it.

What is your fave dinosaur?

What is your fave movie about dinosaurs?

What is your fave NOT movie about dinosaur?

Do you have a dinosaur fursona and if so, who are they and what are they all about?

Dinosaurs are cool SO LET'S TALK ABOUT IT.

I like raptors (Dromaeosauridae). Small predators with feathered cover. Class.
Of the herbivores, I am perhaps impressed by the iguanodon.
I haven't watched documentaries about dinosaurs for many years, and now they have outdated data, which doesn't change the warm hours I got while watching. I can't remember the name.
Everything I've ever known is very outdated. I want to find time to indulge in watching new movies, and I think I would like to draw in the process, so I'm not ready to start now.
Dinosaurs are cool.

I'm kind of a basic bitch when it comes to dinosaurs so my fave is the classic t-rex.>:3

And yeah, dinosaurs media doesn't get updated a lot but we DO get word of some things (like how most dinosaurs had feathers or at least are have feathers when they're babies before losing them). But I LOVE me some We're Back: A Dinosaur Story.

I was summoned.

I was summoned.

Yes! My primal witchcraft works.

NOW I SHALL RULE THE WORLD AND ALL SHALL BOW TO MY POWER!

Velociraptors are pretty cool. I like those little featured guys.

 

[Judge Spear]

Turok had a cybernetically enhanced fire breathing T-Rex boss with a laser eye and that was pretty cool as a kid.

You know, average dinosaur stuff.XD

 

[TrixieFox]

Velociraptor is the best

 

[Amepix]

Velociraptor is the best

We think alike, I see. They are the best, and the smartest pack hunters this side of the Cretaceous Period

In the fictional setting I’ve come up with there is a sort of dromaeosaurid species. Of course, I had to borrow on Jurassic Park and make them intelligent. But I break from JP in taking my dromaeosaurids with feathers.

Jurassic Park's one weakness: FEATHERED DINOSAURS.

That and thinking that a t-rex can't see you unless you move.

I do like the way Jurassic Park portrayed Raptors, unlike real life where they were the size of a dog and had feathers.. not very scary..lol

But imagine a pack of small intelligent animals using their size to their advantage, with strength in numbers.

I wish I had a dinosaur plushie. Any kind of dinosaur, just one.

Apparently, while the real velociraptor wasn’t that big, the ones in Jurassic Park were based on Deinonychus, which was about that size.

I can felted a little dinosaur out of sheep's wool

 

[Troj]

I'm a dinosaur, and am partial to dinosaurs as a result.

 

[Rap_Daniel]

@Troj might be the fluffiest dinosaur here!

"not very scary" Yeah, until they are ripping chunks of your flesh out with their dog-sized dagger teeth.>:.O

I do think it'd be terrifying for small smart dinos to be after you and using whatever they can for their advantage... Now that's scary!

I got a what I assume is a raptor plushie from the Museum Of Natural History in New York so if you live anywhere near there you can try that.XD

They don't have to be smart: just willing to kill you.

Hell, even dinosaurs that wouldn't ACTIVELY try to kill you are pretty horrifying: a brontosaurus is more likely to just step on you and kill you by mistake then to actively murder you.

I love dinosaurs but I REALLY hope we never find a way to bring them back.
