#LifeOnOurPlanet #TheDinosaurs
'The dinosaurs weren't just big, ferocious icons. They had families, they struggled...they were up against massive climatic problems, the planet was throwing everything at them, and they made it for 170 million years.' -- Nick Shoolingin-Jordan

'The great shadow descended like a falling cloud. And behold! it was a winged creature: if bird, then greater than all other birds...and its vast pinions were as webs of hide between horned fingers...'
Hatzegopteryx mood.

Poor Arambourgiania. It really thought that this was just another casual stroll in the canteen.

This might be the first time an Ankylosaurus reconstruction that largely adheres to the research of Victoria M. Arbour and Jordan C. Mallon (2017) is shown in a major big-budget paleo docu that reaches a wide audience.

The Yutyrannus hunting segment.
Swift, effective, and set in a memorable snow-covered environment.

Though 'gliding Anchiornis' is now considered unlikely, the Anchiornis segment remains an example of a segment that #TheDinosaurs took from #LifeOnOurPlanet and made into something a whole lot better.

There's something about the opening scene of #TheDinosaurs that makes it special for me. Maybe it's got something to do with the colour palette, or maybe it's the lushness and the vibrance of the environment.

The sole Marasuchus that survived is subtly different from its siblings in that it's the only individual with a messy 'hairstyle'.

The Yanbeilong segment is simple yet haunting. A sequence with an atmosphere that reminds me of Annihilation (2018) and a stegosaur design that, on close inspection, reveals a lot of interesting details (small spikes on the neck, etc.)...

Not only is the Spinosaurus from #TheDinosaurs leaning more towards the 'Heron' reconstruction than WWD2025 's Sobek, it's also more ROBUST...if not in actuality then certainly visually.

Even today, after 153 million years, Allosaurus still doesn't want peace, still wants problems always, and still takes on the most difficult opponents, three quarters of the online paleo community, for instance.
