Dinosaur! (Dinosaur Only Cut) 

Speaking of which, it appears that the show's composer was primarily using a Yamaha DX7 (and possibly also an E-mu Emulator) to play the music.

Lol

People may get a good laugh out of that comment, but it's technically true.

Agree. If a hadrosaur has a predator, like T-Rex, they could learn different ways how to defend themselves.

Large adult Edmontosaurus might even be able to severely injure a T. rex by its sheer size that it can throw around. The specimen X-rex was estimated to be around 14-15 tonnes, much bigger than even the biggest T. rex like Scotty (around 10 tonnes).

some hadrosaurs can grow up to twice as heavy as a t rex and also have powerful biting beaks and kicking hooves, it's less of a "lion vs gazelle" scenario and more of a "lion vs. water buffalo" scenario with tyrannosaurs and hadrosaurs

Indeed. And a very realistic and believable one at that, too. I expected to see some super-dino, over the top, cheesy crap here lol but thankfully, they made it somewhat a reasonable fight. I'm sure it's happened sort of like this at the times, but most times I wouldn't be surprised if it's like how it's depicted in many documentaries, knowing that Hadrosaurs don't have the best of defense mechanisms anyways, unlike their more heavily armored and spiked herbivore counterparts such as the Ankylosaurs and such.

I don't think it's that they're "wimps". They don't have that many defenses against a predator like T. rex. But that's not saying they couldn't try if they were bold enough.

That sequence is my first memory.

I think we all made our toy dinosaurs fight and eat each other as kids

Nah. That’s literally just a child.

...wait a second I was the child!

Fun fact: those are prop trees leftover from the speeder chase in Return of the Jedi! Phil Tippet worked on it several years earlier!

Yeah, but the nightmare sorta starts at 3:53 with the sound and scenery change.

Used to scare the shit out of me when I was a kid

I know right when I first saw it it creeped me out as well sometimes I would even watch it around dusk or at night to add the scariness

agree

Prairielander yeah except in the Cretaceous, I would wager Alberta did not have many snow storms or subzero temperatures. Might not have been always balmy and torrid but I suspect real winter was closer to the poles then.

Prairielander tyrannosaurus rex is scary as hell do you agree

Nicky Osborn the tyrannosaur that we saw in this film wasn't a tyrannosaurus even though they said it it wasn't tyrannosaurus didn't live in Alberta

I believe it's an Albertosaurus, a close relative of the t-rex but a little smaller in size.

sounds like the western suburbs of melbourne

What goes around comes around, even for dinosaurs.

I remember my school watched the documentary and had the same response. Of course this was after Jurassic Park, so everyone called them Raptors.

Another name for a Deinonychus is Utahraptor

Me too; in my mind, the Struthiomimus kidnapped and killed babies, and the Deinonychus were just being avengers lol

@@Game0saur_ Utahraptor and Deinonychus are not the same animal. Utahraptor is a more heavily built dromaeosaur that lived slightly earlier and looked very different.

Bigbadguy I saw the first scene in Eyewitness Dinosaur. Been looking for the original footage for years.

*cue Halloween main theme*

When I was younger I portrayed the T. rex as a antihero and the spinosaurus as a full on villain

True v a p o r w a v e

Somebody made a sweet remix of the baby duckbill theme. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Rylb8HOj_8s.html

I've seen a 6-ton elephant fall over after accidental electrocution, and it emerged unharmed other than some temporary spasms from being tased. It depends on the angle and velocity of the fall that determines injury. Furthermore, you forget that skin and muscle would potentially lessen the impact and cushion the blow

+Warrior Poet I thought Phil Tippett's Female Tyrannosaurus REX looked a bit like Vermithrax Pejorative the Dragon herself. Still 1st Phil Tippet animated Vermithrax Pejorative the Dragon from the Paramount Picture Slash Walt Disney Production Dragonslayer in 1981. Now he animated these Dinosaurs from this Project Prehistoric Beast in 1984. "Before he did the CG Dinosaurs from the Jurassic Park Films." I wish this was on DVD. Along with the other Dinosaurs from this same project The Tyrannosaurus REX AKA T.REX & Monoclonius were in. There's the Hadrosaur Family "Probably Edmontosaurus." a Srtuthiomimus a pair of Deinonychus & the group of long neck Apatosaurus. "Normally the late Cretaceous Period in North America lived Alamosaurus the last & only Titanosaur in North America." Plus, a skull of Triceratops seen after the Extinction scene. I'd love to add this Dinosaur Feature along with the wrest of the Dinosaur Sequence in my DVD collection.

" eyewitness 3D dinosaur adventure and really wild animals" Me too!

ME TOO

Yeah, I remember a lot of these from 3D Dinosaur Adventure; my #1 favorite computer game when I was a kid!

Me too.

Same here that's how I found out about this documentary from really wild animals and eyewitnesses

TyrannoWright Amargasaurus, Oviraptor, and Alvarezsaurus notwithstanding, of course. No, really. I've seen some concept art for the original version of Disney's Dinosaur. Those three animals most intrigued me. Oviraptor initially had a very different and far more interesting depiction than just "egg eater"; they were shown as scavengers, picking up the inevitable dead the herd leaves behind as it travels. Baylene was also going to be an Oviraptor instead of a nondescript brachiosaur. It was also going to have feathers, particularly a collar resembling that of a griffon vulture, as well as a set of wings. Alvarezsaurus were initially going to be the egg-eaters. They were also going to be feathered, and the concept art made them look surprisingly accurate even to this day, showing them as small, running animals resembling a colourful ground bird. They also were shown with the ability to pop their jaws out of joint so they can swallow large food items like eggs. Amargasaurus was going to be the other of the two sauropods shown. It would have been seen frequently hanging out amongst Parasaurolophus. When the voices were added into the development plan, two minor characters would've been a gossipy pair of Amargasaurus and Parasaurolophus.

Well the visual effects people for this did work on Star Wars.

specifically the Endor scenes.

Speaking of which, hypothetically, if there were a jungle-forest planet (similar to the forest moon of Endor) in the galaxy where Star Wars takes place, the lifeforms that inhabit the planet would be dinosaurs, and not just any dinosaurs, they would look and sound just like the dinosaurs from the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World films and the Jurassic World Evolution business simulation video game that would probably be either stop-motion animated ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uEK9mitagS8.html ) or CGI animated, and the dinosaurs would have descendants that evolved into highly intelligent humanoid lifeforms that would look like the anthropomorphic dinosaurs from the 1991 television film "Adventures in Dinosaur City". ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QmU6ZcuYzyY.html )

3-D Dinosaur Adventure is the game your thinking about!

Stormycloud21 Sadly, since it's a documentary, and some of the science in it is outdated, I doubt there's much interest in rereleasing it on DVD. :(

Yep but I hope they still do. Loved this tv show!

Those were damn Velociraptors!

+Eddy Storms you know the guy that animated this film worked on starwars before this.

+Nathan mow plus Jurassic Park.

fwwaller That's because Prehistoric Beast was made first. The footage was then edited into Dinosaur! along with newly shot footage of the duckbills, which was made expressly for the documentary. Prehistoric Beast is its own short film.

Bill Hiers Ah okay that clears it up, thanks!

Transportation Productions I thought that’s what Those Hadrosaurs were. Edmontosaurus.

Oh that's is Either A centrosaurus or maybe a monoclonius.

Its part motor part stop motion. It was a brand new technique.
