There is no T-Rex because the T-Rex will be in EDB Part.3.

Too late GmkGoji!If you want to choose Dinosaur,you have to go to the voting section.

Thanosaurus

Hmmmmmmmm,TheLazyFish,you were the only one which commented,tell me which of these two Dinosaurs you want to see,i will make a vote contest,the dinosaur with the most votes will battle with one of the Dinosaurs you chose.

Siats or Chilantaisaurus

I think Carc would be a bit faster, but because of the slight weight advantage Giga would win a little bit more times than not. Still would be REALLY close though

For the EDB Part.2,i will only choose the Dinosaurs which you guys want to see,you can't pick 2 Dinosaurs,only 1.

Guys,if you want and EDB Part.2,you can comment down below which Dinosaur would you want to be in the next battle.

I like to think of Dakotaraptos as feathered JP Velociraptors but not killing for sport or pack hunters... or more intelligent than an actual Velociraptor (or a turkey).

I like to think the JP raptors are Dakotaraptors

Some other people said that im a loser for liking Dinosaurs in general,that happened 6 times.

@Kamoebas V.6, it truly is weird that you didn't encounter individuals who humiliated you for liking dinosaurs in general.

But that doesn't excuse for how your contemporaries treated you.

Having an affinity for a particular genus of dinosaur is fine, for whatever traits it may be.  Your peers in question were very ignorant in not being able to separate objective comparisons to subjective affinity.  And ignorance should never be tolerated.

@TheLazyFish, yeah, that's unfortunately how it goes.  And it makes no sense.  People are stupid.  Yet, one thing people like is violence.  Dinosaurs were violent.  Why not like them?  It's like how a ton of "cool" people hated Star Wars, even though there is tons of violence with laser guns, laser swords, and explosions.  Stupid people are stupid, and too often they become bullies.

Ah, ok. Well, I think you should just leave em be. If they can't tolerate another opinion, then just leave the group or whatever.

Yeah they did call me a loser,they also liked Dinos and thats why they didn't say that im a loser for liking Dinosaurs.

Hold on, people called you a loser for your favorite dino being allo instead of just liking Dinos? Not that there's anything wrong with either, or course. I love Dinos and allo. But... usually, at least in my experience, people get mocked for the fact that they love Dinosaurs in general.

Shouldn't you be siding with Carcharodontosaurus? I mean SHARK is in the name! You wouldn't be The true shark boy if you didn't side with it XD

I agree, the tyrant king lizard takes the cake

It's like a Deinonychus that lost its feathers and bare skin and grew to the size of a Dakotaraptor.

Then there we found the new allotar, master of none of the 4 elements. I believe one day, he'll save the world XD Avatar  references for days!

Im also an Allosaurus fanboy,not a Spino,Giga or Carchar fanboy.

Sorry guys,im not yelling at James,but im happy that the Spino killed the Rex.

The 4 fanbases lived in harmony until the Spino nation attacked XD

James

NP

Kamoebas

Well, yeah, it's the most popular Dinosaur by far and I do believe it is over loved. There are cooler Dinosaurs! Not that I don't like it, it's just kinda lost that wow factor from all the overhyping. Still like it like any other Dinosaur, but as far as Tyrannosaurs go I prefer Tarbosaurus, Albertosaurus, Daspletosaurus, etc. But you shouldn't yell at people for thinking it would win in a fight, especially when it's not for the reason you mentioned. They have valid points for why it would win, while I don't think it would win the majority of fights with a Carcharodontosaurus, they're entitled to their own opinion. 

Np, also, nice new profile pic!

Well... Spino beat it in JP3... so it doesn't always win in movies... But you shouldn't yell at James for thinking T-rex would win.

Anyways,the battle was cool,i give it a 8/10.

I like the Rex but that is the reason why the Rex isn't my favorite Dino,also he isn't the king!

Heres a fact:every single new Dinosaur which the T-Rex fights is only new to the movie just to get killed or defeated by the the Rex.

OF COURSE THE T-REX WILL WIN,DON'T YOU THINK THAT THE REX GETS UNLIMITED ATTENTION,LOVE,RESPECT AND POPULARITY,WHEN WILL PEOPLE CARE ABOUT THE OTHER DINOSAURS.

I Meme Everything What would be the top 4 that you like?

Here is a Top 10. Grab some pop corn and beers and enjoy!

JP was cool since it had a basis in science and how dinosaurs were brought back to life. 

As bad as dinosaur movies can be, there is an appeal to them since they tap into our sense of wonder- a scifi thing- imo. I would rather watch a bad dinosaur movie than a decent modern drama.

Honestly, there are PLENTY of Dinosaur movies worse than the ones above. I actually like JP3 more than The Lost World, but Jurassic World was OK... Fallen Kingdom could be on this list from just the pure disappointment alone, but there are dino movies worse than it... FAR worse... For example, all 3 Dinosaur Island movies... UGH... If you can even consider them movies...

Alphadino

Well, it's not exactly conclusive, and is debatable. but I agree with you.

All dinosaur movies suck if you really think about it since we never existed with them. 

That said, it requires forgetting about facts and just going along with it.

Before it was a movie, I was really into The Land of the Lost as a kid watching Saturday cartoons, Creature Feature and such. Land of the Lost was pretty cool as a kid! Back in the day when REAL dinosaurs dragged their tails on the ground!

The closest relative to Tyrannosaurs rex, as far as we know, is Tarbosaurus bataar.  Therefore, Daspletosaurus is not the direct ancestor to T.rex.

I swear I've replied to this before, or a similar topic of yours. 

Change your topic title to "My Rant on My Worst 4 Dinosaur Movies", and you get your point across.

Here I am to counter:

Land of the Lost:  a really bad summer movie that you watch for nothing more than wanting to watch a terrible movie to laugh at.  A few good scenes here and there, a lot of messed up jokes that you can laugh at how messed up they are.  

Jurassic World:  BIG COUNTER!  Jurassic World was what Jurassic Park was supposed to become.  Wouldn't you have wanted that?  This movie built upon what Crichton was talking about in the Jurassic Park novel, which is what your fave JP movie is based on, right?  Surely you've READ Jurassic Park?!  Practically ZERO characters are likeable in any Jurassic movie because character development isn't the main point of these movies (but it's done well enough to get across).  This is especially true when you look at the characters on a surface level, which I believe you did.  Sure, militarizing dinosaurs is a dumb idea.  But so is militarizing elephants and dogs, BOTH of which have been done many times throughout human history, even continuing into today (think K9 units with police forces, many of which are part of nations' militaries), and they've been met with varying degrees of success.  You know what else is a dumb idea?  Making a theme park full of very large and (sometimes) very vicious animals that went extinct a long time ago, where people can get hurt.  But you were fine with that, right?

Jurassic Park 3:  no way I'm going to say that it's actually a good movie, but it's a far better movie than it should have been.  Pre-production and production were wildly disorganized to a point that there was never a final script.  But this was still a summer action blockbuster, so why should plot be important?  Just see it so you don't have to think for an hour and a half.  Escaping reality for an hour or so does the soul some good.  Plus, no character is ever truly likeable in any Jurassic movie, hell in ANY MOVIE, if you have pre-conceived bias already.  And hey, this fan-base division was stupid to begin with, so why get involved?  It's been over for a long time.  But your AIDS and cancer comments are uncalled for.

WWD 3D:  again, your disease-based comments are legit uncalled for and unnecessary.  Sure, the dialogue is poor, but you emulating poop jokes (remember "Walking With Pieces of Sh!t"?) makes your post as bad as your opinion of the movie.  So, watch the film without dialogue, like the movie crew originally planned?  There is a version of it available, called Prehistoric Planet 3D.  And sadly, as paramount as the WWD series was, it had some stupid shortcomings (Utahraptors in Europe?  5 ton T.rex?  Ornithocheirus the size of Quetzlcoatlus?), so your comparison point is moot.  The plot is cliché because you can only get so creative in nature.  And again, very few characters are likeable in ANY MOVIE if you have preconceived notions about it.  For all the shortcoming of this film, Animal Logic actually made a new software program called RepTile as a result of combining 2 previous ones so that you get a more seamless CGI model of dinosaurs, between the skin/scales and the internal structure, instead of layering the external model over the internal one separately and trying to sync them once both models were completed.  Any software innovations should be celebrated, because it is progress.  You should be happy that such new software exists, so that an even better version can be made.  Who cares what movie is was made for?  Progress is progress.

I get how hurt you were at the time you made this post.  I know all too well the impact a film (series) can have on you, because certain peers of mine chose to interact negatively with me and my (now former) friends due to a certain film's influence on them.  It can easily have been considered bullying.  They had no reason to commit such actions, even though we were all 12 -13 years old at the time (aren't we all naive at that age?). 

Hopefully, enough time has passed that your sentiments have cooled off and you have "grown a thicker skin".  I have.  I still intensely dislike that film (series), so while my opinion remains the same, I have moved on from focusing on it to the point of an irrational rant like this.

@James Inkton,  it wasn't just Spielberg who consciously chose a different name.  Crichton did it too when he was writing Jurassic Park for the same reason.  But one unconfirmed explanation was that along with consulting with John Ostrom about Deinonychus, he used a lot of Gregory Paul's material when writing the novel.  During the 1980's, Paul actually pushed for Deinonychus antirrhopus to be classified under the genus Velociraptor, and thus wrote several books under the new name.  Then it was refuted, so Paul retracted the initiative, but by then, Crichton's novel was set to be published.

The odd thing though is that even though the body shape of JP's raptors is based entirely on Deinonychus, the size and length of the animal are larger than any known Deinonychus specimen, even though some sources say otherwise.  JP's raptors are around 12-15 ft long and are 5.5 feet tall at the head in a neutral posture.  The largest Deinonychus specimen was 11 ft long and 4 feet tall at the head in the same neutral posture.

Utahraptor is a lot bigger than Deinonychus, and bulkier. That's one of my favorite Dromaeosaurs, if not my favorite. Also, raptors wouldn't have been as smart as they are said to be in the movies. Still could probably open doors though (with handles).

Thanks for the fact.

I acutally digged more research into Deinonychus and i found out that it was cooler than Velociraptor.
