Okay, I wanted to see something about teams. I joined team Spino because I'm sure Spinosaurus would wipe the floor with Rex in a fight. However, I almost joined Rex because it makes a better JP villain, and I prefer it over Spino in the movies. So do you join teams because you think your dinosaur would win in a fight, or because it makes a better villain in JP?

Hmmm... to be honest I joined team spino although t-rex is my favorite dino. I wanted to give to spino a chance, there are too many rex fans out there. :P

Well, I'm on team Spino just because it is been crushed by rex. Although really, I'm going to team raptor once its up, and that's because I love raptors more than any type of dinosaur.

I chose team Rex because: 1: I think it would win more ten then not 2: I think it makes the better villain 3: The king is my all time favourite dinosaur

Hey Spyrannosaurus, can we not badmouth T-rex here? I thought we all put the T-rex vs Spino debate behind us? I chose T-rex simply because he's my favorite dinosaur.

I don`t think this is a rex vs spino debate. Just a discussion about teams ;)

Yes, but we don't need to bring up fights between the two and say one will wipe the floor with the other.

Its impossible to avoid a Spino vs Rex discussion. Just like all roads lead to Rome, all posts including Spinosaurus or T. rex leads to a fight about who would win. That is a classic saying, don't argue.

This could all have been avoided if they simply introduced Spinosaurus in a different way. The movie was going so well, I was really enjoying it, until the fight scene. My jaw dropped, but not in a good way. That's, where it all started ;)

Same here Rex Fan, I had first heard about Spinosaurus when I was 4. Saw the fight when I was 8, and didn't watch JP 3 for a while, think I actually watched it a second time when I bought the box set on blu-Ray this June.

I knew about Spinosaurus before JPIII too. I just thought it was a large theropod with a sail and long jaws. Didn't think much of it until JPIII. I'll admit, I when I started thinking more about it, I wasn't thinking good things. I actually didn't watch JPIII much simply because Spino was in it for a while. Then, I grew to like the real animal more, but frankly, I still dislike the Hollywood version simply because, in my opinion, it was so inaccurate.

True. My brother recently saw JP 3 for the first time, and I had to explain to him that it was fake. I heard about Spinosaurus on my first visit to the school library in Kindergarden. I had been Super Mario 64 since I was 3, and my dad told be that Bowser was a dinosaur, and boom, I love dinosaurs.

Nice. I first heard about Spinosaurus while looking through a dinosaur book of mine. It said it was 15 meters(50 ft) long and weighed about 4.4 tons. A little lightweight to me know, but back then, that was enough for me. That's one reason why I didn't like the battle in JPIII. I thought Spinosaurus was long and lean and couldn't fight a T-rex, haha

That's true. I always thought that Rex was the unparalleled king of the dinosaurs, and that the fight was stupid. The first book I had read didn't get into sizes, just a quick little blurb about it.

I've always accepted that Spino won. Heck, jp3 was my favorite movie for a while there. My books say that Spino is only 45 feet long and a fish eater. Man, everyone hates Spino, except for people who love it.

Excuse me but I'm not trying to start an argument but I must say Rexfan684 you kinda "bad mouthed" spinosaurus in Rex verse triceratops when you wrote that Rexy killed a spinosaurus by ambushing it like it was easy to kill

Spinobro, that has been used before, Rex Fan wasn't the first to say it. And this is Rexy the Tyrannosaurus we're talking about.

I know, and you should see that we all respect each other's opinions. That's part of the reason we stopped arguing Rex vs Spino.

Well, to answer Spyrannosaurus' original question, I think you can join a team for multiple reasons. For some, it's general preference. For others, your team depends on who you rooted for in Jurassic Park III. Maybe you joined a team because you think you're dinosaur could win in a fight, or maybe you think your dinosaur is cooler. It doesn't really matter. For me, I am of the opinion that a Spino and Rex fight is up to chance/environment, 50-50. While I respect Rex and have loved the Tyrant King ever since I was little, I like Spino better. I HATE the Jurassic Park III fight scene and think it could have been done so much better. Nevertheless, Spino won. But that is not why I am on Team Spino. I think Spinosaurus is an amazingly cool, unique, awesome dinosaur. I'm happy Spino got recognition in JPIII, but it really comes down to that I just love Spino. That's why I'm on the Pharaoh's team.
