I never knew about a novel! I'll have to check it out!

Awesome! Definitely getting a D-Rex set!

i was literally about to post this but you already did:/

The hadrosaurs are widly considered one of the most sucessful groups of dinosauria ever to walk our earth. They outnumber the allosaurs, the widely kept second sucessful family of dinosaurs, by a ratio of 3:1. 

They reached gigantic sizes, the enormous Zhuchengosaurus/Huaxiaosaurus/Shantungosaurus reached an impressive 16 meters in length, and weighed just as much. 

Their elaborate head crests, along with the sheer amount of specimens with have for Hadrosauridae, along with numerous skin impressions, have always been a rather studied topic.

Not only in paleontology are these"duck-bills" so widely known; they're ingrained in our culture. From land before time, to the Jurassic park novels and movies, everyone recognizes the "duck-bills". They might not be able to distinguish one species from another, but that's not their fault, for our culture has placed the label"Duck-bill" on these magnificient animals - much like Triceratops= three-horn.

In short, Hadrosaurs are one of the most sucessful, awe inspiring groups ofdinosauria ever to trod our planet, and definetly deserve more recognition

^ there was.

There's not going to be the animals as we know them in the movie, but evolved, larger and/or smaller versions of them. We saw this with "Vastatosaurus rex", which was just an overly evolved Tyrannosaurus. I think we'll see more of things like that, i for one am excited for this movie

^there was a novel?

^there was a novel?

Skull island is going to be based on the novel, not on Peter jacksons or the 1933 film, so i dougth there will be any Vrex, and also maybe not even a Trex as i bealibve Kong whont be the main focus of Skull Island

^ i dont really have much faith in that game. i really want to but i just dont. after the jurassic park operations and jurassic genetics situation im a little less than confident 

I wasn't impressed with JPB. I played it for a few months and then deleted it. Thankfully, we're getting a game like JPOG, but better, called Prehistoric Kingdom. (The final game won't come out for maybe a little over a year, but the tech demo will be released very soon.)

i agree duskyalaska. i too was dissapointed. i really dont understand why they dont just make an operation genesis sequel. weve been screaming for it for years. why not just give it to us? they would most certainly make money

but thats just me, as for an ios, if it was a bit better then the park builder game, and wasnt gonna cost you money for iconic animals, maybe... but i'll just wait and see

Eh I love to get a new jurassic park operation genesis style game, but with additional features, options and some improvements...

DR. JONES - Oh! Hahaha! Okay! I'll have to give that film a go! :)

@ carno, I like it too. The way the deltadromeus thinks he can take on an animal 7 tons bigger then himself.

You inspired me to do this because you said you love hadrosaurs because of their adaptability in the rhino rex thread.

no, its a movie "my science project 1985"

DR. JONES - Your science project? do tell! :)

jurassic park, peter jacksons king kong, my science project, journey to the center of the earth 2008. Those are some of the best dinosaur films.

i think we will see a t-rex, becaues in the 1933 king kong. I dont realy like peter jacksons king kong that much, its one of the better dinosaur films though.

@somethingreal while that is an interesting concept id much rather have a gene splicing function to create more powerful dinosaurs in combat and creates more coin revenue. the downside being you lose the two dinosaur components if you succeed. thats just my idea

BRONZEFANG - Most compelling! I feel that a creature like Sarcosuchus would be quite nice for Skull Island! That or the PIRANAHDON featured in Jackson's King Kong! Thank you very much for sharing this with us! :)

INDIANA JONES - Hahahaha! That's bloody fantastic! :)

uuuuuuummmmmmmmmhuuuuuuummmmmmmm

:D

1. How did I inspire this?

2. Is this finished or did you post this early?

3. I love hadrosaurs.

4. My Youtube/Google name is Hadroaur Hero

5. :D

that could be neat

Yo mama is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fat, she looks up cheat codes for wii fit!

TYRANT KING - How very interesting! I can't wait to read the rest! Thank you so very much for sharing this with us! :)

DINOBOY22 - This sounds very neat! I've never actually played the game you've mentioned, however, I'd like to see the D-Rex as a "free-roaming" radical in the game that can cause havoc at any moment! :)

INDINA JONES - I certainly hope there'll be some reference! *ahem* SQUAK!

SPINOSAURUS REX - After having taken a look back at multiple other posts regarding the revision to Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus' physiology, I've come to notice a trend in the manner by which you choose to address the topic. It seems as though you've a proclivity for reacting in a rather standoffish and aggressive manner - as if you feel the need to defend a standpoint or take personal offense when others suggest something about the theropod you so enjoy. What an interesting manner of reaction. This suggests to me that you hold this animal in extremely high regard and have, as a result, developed strong emotional ties to it. Is there a reason for such a powerful draw to this animal? I only posit this question because, from my observations, you seem extraordinarily opposed to the prospect of a change in Spinosaurus' physical scheme. May I ask what is so very wrong with the new revision? I believe it makes the animal that much more amazing and terrifying - much like an ancient sea serpent or dragon! Naturally, your opinion in the manner is just as important as everyone else's. However, it would seem as if you are generally unwilling to accept the opinions of others when it comes to the physiological alteration Spinosaurus has undergone. Are you privy to information the rest of us have not yet viewed? If so, I ask that you please present it so that we can amend our points of view; the last thing we want is to base our statements upon flawed supposition and conjecture. :)

INDIANA JONES - Hahaha! Anything for you, sweetie! ;)

i was kidding around knowing YOU something real! your a good person, stay gold.

INDIANA JONES - I appreciate your support, I really do; but my statement was not meant as a comeback. I want to understand SPINOSAURUS REX's point of view so that I can better see the persepective from which he/she stands. If I angered him/her, that is the last thing I wanted to do. I much prefer serenity to conflict - it's much more agreeable. Of course, aggression has its value as well, but only to a certain degree. If we can not settle a difference with diplomacy that functions in the absense of violence and inflamatory language, then we've failed on a fundamental level. I refuse to allow a conversation to degrade in such a fashion. That being said, I also refuse to have words placed in my mouth by individuals interested in conflict for its own sake. It's a tenuous and unfortunate situation - one which I greatly abhor.

    Regardless, I greatly appreciate your confidence in me. It means more than i can place into words. :)

good comeback something real.

._.

...thank you, thank you for sharing your compasion with me

SPINOSAURUS REX - It's obvious that my statement has had a negative effect with regards to your personal interests. For that, you have my most sincere apologies. My remark was meant to be a laughable pass at the overly monster-ized version of the Spinosaurus presented in Monsters Resurrected - not a critical jab at you or anyone else with a fondness for particular extinct life-forms.

    That being said, you've presented yourself in a manner that suggests extreme agitation, something which I prefer to avoid at most costs. We're all capable of polite and even-handed conversation. I implore you to utilize that mode of conversation rather than come out of your corner swinging without provocation. Life is much too precious a thing to waste on petty anger. We must all work to ameleorate our stance at times, and I am no exception to that rule. Misunderstandings and spats will arise, yet it is up to us to determine how they will progress. For my part, I hope such instances pass and are left as by-gones.

    As a final aside, it's obvious that you much prefer the more bipedal iteration of the Spinosaurus rather than the one paleontologists have begun to discover. Is this due to the manner in which it hunts? Or do you prefer the physiology due to its viability as a super-predator? :)

i wouldnt say that i just have a lot of patience. ive been waiting a while for them to fix the game

dinoboy you have bigger balls then i do...
