If you look at the deleted scenes and concept art it tells you alot of what they wanted to go with but disney of corse ruined we were supposed to see them go threw jungles to mountains to finally hit the desert predators from deinosuces( or Sarcosuchus) to t rex allosaurus spinosaurus and even mosa raptors were originally supposed to be feathered but at the time was to hard to animate
And carnotarus was going to be accurate size but dangerously agile and even scarier pick you off at your weakest they would have been following the herd constantly and killed off aladars grandparents and bruton who was originally his brother
Um no? I like the movie because of its incredible score, great voice acting and the real life backgrounds but the cgi is literally the worst part. I don’t think the movie is bad or anything but Jurassic Park came out almost a decade earlier and it looks miles better. (But I can offer the excuse that Jurassic Park only used its cgi a little bit while Dinosaur used it for the whole movie)

Baylene is supposed to be the last of her kind because of the "Fire Ball." I suppose the sauropods were just too big and slow to evade the falling debris and take shelter in time, Baylene was just lucky.
7:29 As a kid I always assumed by her "being the last of her kind" meaning that the asteroid from the beginning of the movie is what wiped out most of her species due to them being so large and slow lol
I heard they try to add feather on the velociraptors in the movie, but it was hard to animated so that’s why the velociraptors don’t have feather and it’s been a lot of stuff that they cut out in the movie
Dinosaur was the very first 3d animated movie by Walt Disney Feature Animation (Pixar had already done a few by then). The technology to animate hair and other stuff like that was cutting edge and very expensive at the time. It would take months to compute the final render of a movie at the time. Pixar created a tool called Fizt for Monsters Inc to automate the animation of hair instead of having to arrange every single hair. They still use it today for hair and cloth animation.
It sucks tho .it could have ben a fun Disney movie instead it turned into a depressing boring one .the fiest 10 minutes in the jungle intro was amazing and then it turns into 2 hours of bore
Some notes about some of the dinosaur designs. Earl the anky is actually a Euplocepholus, as confirmed by the lead dinosaur designer in the special features. That said, he still doesn’t look like one that much. The mini ceratopsians are called microcerotops in tie in books and the special features. If you’re a nerd of palaeontology, know it’s now call microceratus. This goes the same to the pteranodon where this particular species is now called Geosternbergia. Of course, that’s still debated if it should be a unique genus. While not scientifically plausible, it’s possible Kron and Brutons nasal designs are based on the first depictions of iguanodon.
Thinking about it this makes a lot more sense. Its like you if took the Crystal Palace depiction directly and tried to "modernize it" to be more dinosaur-like without actually knowing what Iguanodon should look like.
@chubibi06 I like this, is a more meta interpretation. Kron and Bruton have older designs that would be easier to intimidate other iguanodons and make them leaders.
In defense of Kron's & Bruton's unique physical features: there're are animal species in which males have certain characteristics that can be either developed or not. The best example are orangutans with their big, meaty cheeks. When males mature they can "choose" to grow these cheeks to show that they're dominant males - or not grow them, and then they look pretty much like females. Maybe here it's a similar thing - since Kron and Bruton are dominant males with high levels of testosterone, it might be the reason why they developed nose crests, larger frame, humps and back spikes - while Aladar lived his entire life with lemurs, so he never had the need to develop these features of a dominant male (no interspecies combat, no need to fight for females etc). That's just how I see it. (Ps. Sorry for grammar. English is not my first language - but paleontology is my first love. Haha)
It’s a good theory in premise but the evolutionary traits of the male species wouldn’t be held back on one individual just because he happened to grow up in an environment where those features weren’t necessary - that’s not how evolution really works: it’s more so in a collective sense when an entire species develops a need to acquire a new trait to adapt and push the entire species forward (Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium). It’s possible that he may have lacked the development of these features because of genetic defects or something along those lines, though.
The two Carnotaurus’ are male and female, with the bigger surviving one (till the end) being named Brutus in the script, he also appears at the beginning of the story.
@@Greentherowhy wouldn't two Individuals of the same species look different? Literally every single individual living thing even the ones with no distinct differences like humans are unique.
@@Greenthero I'll use Komodo Dragons and Crocodiles as examples. They all "look the same" right? Having minimal sexual dimorphism between the two sexes and all sharing distinct crocodile or komodo dragon characteristics. But no individual croc or dragon is an exact copy of the other. They still have individuals with their own personality preferences and variations in physical size and features.
The filmmakers did mention that brachiosaurids were around during the Cretaceous for a little while such a sauroposeidon since it is in the family, that’s why they were doing a reference at the time
15:04 It could be that the size and additional adornments are like what happens with silverbacks and orangoutangs and many other primates where only the dominant males grow bigger and have display features while the males who haven’t bred/haven’t won leadership do not develop the dominant features until they can win a fight and breeding rights. You kinda also see it with anoles and iguanas, though I’m not sure to what extent it is age vs dominance in those species.
As for Baylene, I think there was a strange thing going on in the 1990's and early 2000's where its believed that Brachiosaurus (or a creature that was similar to brachiosaurus) lived for a few million years into the Creataceous, but not very long. As for the extinction of Baylenes species, most likely Baylene hasnt found any other Brachiosaurs, so without any way to find out its probably likely she believes she is truely the last of her kind. Another possibility is that the Carnotaurs have practically hunted them down. Baylene seems very afraid of the Carnotaurs, specifically pairs as she points out in the movie how 2 Carnotaurs would be significantly worse than 1, which, while true, she freaks out the most after saying it. This wouldnt make much sense, even with the oversized carnos, but it must be the case, why else would Baylene (while old, shes still huge and strong as we see in the cave scene) be afraid of creatures that much less than half her size. Most Likely Carnotaurs around the continent eventually became more confident, or found a near foolproof strategy to bring down Brachiosaurs.
My stance is, when something is made for entertainment, I don’t care about palae-accuracy, when I watch things like Disney’s Dinosaur, Jurassic Park, King Kong, Primeval, Dinosaur King etc all I want are cool visually appealing distinct designs with verisimilitude. I’ll criticise a bad design for being either ugly, messy, not really resembling the animal it’s meant to be etc but accuracy isn’t a factor, if I want that, I’ll watch a documentary.
_"Innacurate does not mean bad,_ _this video was made purely for entertainment_ _and was highly requested by_ _the amazing people from this community"_ - The Mythology Guy Completely different context, but I think it perfectly applies here!
@@insectilluminatigetshrekt5574 Yeah, you gotta get the general look of the animal down, that’s required, but you don’t need to be 100% accurate, just make a cool looking design.
@SmashBrosAssemble it depends on what kind of movie/show it is. I think there are some fictional plots that would require accurate dinosaurs. Like if it's supposed to be a realistic fiction kind of thing of what would dinosaurs in captivity actually be like. By the way, almost all dinosaur movies up to and including the first jurassic park tried making their dinosaurs as accurate as they could for the time.
One thing i did notice about the Carnos is that the smaller one not only was smaller, it was also faster and FAR more reckless and aggressive. Im guessing it was a father/child situation where the "fireball" drove them out of their home and they stuck together to survive, then they found the scent of the herd and followed it for food and the rest is history.
Another theory that I've heard is that they were a mated pair, though I agree that the 'fireball' drove them out of their typical range and were following the herd in search of their next meal.
I remember from a tie-in magazine from Dinosaur that Bruton and Kron where based on Muttaburrasaurus since they were believed to be Iguanodontids back when the movie was in development, they also called Ur Euoplocephalus.
Also as a minor point, Bruton and Kron are not Iguanodon, they are Altirhinus. I know the question is "well if thats the case how is he Neera's Brother". Well that leads to one of two things. Either they are trying to say that Iguanodon and Altirhinus are so close that they can interbreed (probably not), or Kron was adopted, I doubt Neera was adopted since Iguanodon seem to be so much more populous than Altirhinus, who might be going extinct due to competition with their close cousins.
I have the old special edition multi-disc dvd with all the bonus features as well as the large making-of book… it has A LOT of insight on the designs. I know the iguanadon character designs were made so you could tell them apart easily. The trick if they were all shadowed, you could still tell who’s who. In the art book Zondag says: “We’d add a little bit of a bump on the nose or change the shape of the beak a little. We’d find what we could an exaggerate it.” It specifies that Kron’s was meant to look intimidating with this thick neck and big chin… Bruton was also very robust and rhino-like. So in the end… just character design :D
I just realized the lemurs were included as implied human ancestors. They chose lemurs despite the temporal displacement to make that connection more visible. That, or they just needed the mammalian sidekicks to be able to climb on Aladar's back
I always thought the reason Burton and Kron had a horn like thing on their nose was a reference to paleontologist thinking iguanadons thumb spike was a nasal horn
Actually, leptoceratops was not in the movie. The small ceraptopsians are Microceratus( known at the time as Microceratops) Also, the velociraptors were indeed originally planned to be feathered but the feathers got left out
Actually if you look really closely at the pteranodon wean it drops the egg and the babies in the nest they do have some fluff something I just now noticed
So apparently, the whole "cretaceous brachiosaur" conundrum was a common misconception from the late 90s to the early 2000s, as some sauropod fossils from early cretaceous Tunisia were once assigned specifically to Brachiosaurus, and as such a lot of dinosaur books from that time mentioned its temporal range as going from the jurassic to the cretaceous. Needless to say, those fossils are no longer believed to belong to Brachiosaurus, and I'm pretty sure they're currently nameless, though I don't remember if it's classified as a brachiosaurid still or if that changed. Weirdly, Iguanodon and Hypsilophodon were also often mentioned to range from the jurassic to the cretaceous back then, likely due to wastebin taxonomy.
Here's a list of animals I'd choose if I were to make a more "scientifically accurate" update of Disney's Dinosaur. The time for my setting is ~68 MYA; due to this, many animals from ~2 million years prior or later appear in this update. ~2 million years isn't that big of a stretch, so it's possible there could've been some overlap; with some creatures starting to become extinct & others just starting to appear. The setting of my update is Laramidia (the Western Half of North America - no specific subsection). Due to the natural disaster (either a smaller asteroid impact event or a volcanic eruption), species from both the Northern & Souther sections of Laramidia are present here. The natural disaster caused many species to become displaced & they're now able to meet/interact with each other: Kritosaurus navajouvius - Replacement for the Iguanodon. Struthiomimus sedens - Same as the original but now with feathers. Avisaurus archibaldi - Replacement fro the Ichthyornis. Hypacrosaurus altispinus - Replacement for the Parasaurolophus. Pachyrhinosaurus canadensis - Same genus as the original but a different species for the update. Alamosaurus sanjuanensis - Replacement for the Brachiosaurus. Palaeosaniwa canadensis - Replacement for the Longisquama. Albertosaurus sarcophagus - Replacement for the Carnotaurus. I didn't want to go with either Tyrannosaurus or Nanuqsaurus, Tyrannosaurus is overused & Nanuqsaurus is too far North, so I decided to go with a this tyrannosaur for the update. Albertosaurus is, in some ways, the tyrannosaur equivalent of a Carnotaurus. I was considering a trio (instead of a duo) pack of Albertosaurus, with one being an exceptionally large individual (hip height of ~3.5 meters & length of ~10 meters) & the other two being average size (hip height of ~3 meters & length of ~9 meters). Leptorhynchos gaddisi - Replacement for the Oviraptor. Champsosaurus annectens - Replacement for the Koolasuchus. Glyptodontopelta mimus - Replacement for the Talarurus. Tethydraco regalis - Replacement for the Geosternbergia. While its' fossils have been found in North Africa, it could've had a larger distribution due to it possibly being analogous to Sea Birds. Mosasaurus hoffmanni - A creature that had a fully rendered model but was cut from the final; so I decided to include it in the update. Being an marine animal, it likely could've had a global distribution. Purgatorius sp. - Replacement for the Lemurs. Dineobellator notoheseprus - Replacement for the Velociraptors. Regaliceratops peterhewsi - Replacement for the Styracosaurus. Leptoceratops gracilis - Replacement for the Microceratus. Anodontosaurus lambei - Replacement for the Ankylosaurus/Euoplocephalus. Sphaerotholus buchholtzae, edmontonensis or triregnum - Replacement for the Stygimoloch. I couldn't decide on which species, seeing as all three fit the temporal & geographical setting of the update, so any of the three could work.
As iconic as this film's version of Carnotaurus is, they really focused on making him seem like a powerhouse-type predator like T-Rex, when in reality it was a speed demon-style predator (a Cretaceous cheetah, as it has often been described). So in that respect, the Terra Nova Carnotaurus is actually MUCH closer to the real Carnotaurus, except its arms are WAY too big. If you took the Terra Nova Carnotaurus, and gave it the arms of the Disney Carnotaurus, you'd probably have a design that's nearly exactly up to modern scientific standards.
7:04 Two of my favorite dinosaur related pieces of media combined into one. You sir are a man of quality. This makes me want to see what how you’d do an accuracy review on the Dinosaur episode of Zoboomafo would be like. The dinosaurs in that episode being Brontosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, Stegosaurus and Edmontosaurus (called a Duckbill, but the model is very obviously based on Edmontosaurus.) Also at 5:40 the small ceratopsian seen in the herd is actually Microceratus (known as Microceratops at the time the film came out.)
You should have a look at the Minecraft mod “prehistoric nature” it has over 800 prehistoric animals from the pre-cambrian all the way to the Jurassic at the moment the Jurassic is still being worked on so yea but they are going until the present day the creatures are as accurate as they can be within the restrictions of Minecraft and they will update animals and there models if new research comes out on them with noticeable differences
I think the Brachiosaurus featured in the movie might be a reference to a time when these long necked Dinosaurs were thought to have lived right into the Early Cretaceous.
I love the fact that some of the scenes were shoot in real locations. Geostenbergia is actually feathered/fuzzy and I love the model and colors. Still, my personal favorite ones are Velociraptor, Struthiomimmus and Oviraptor. They are so funny and unique. An awesome review of a trully spectacular movie !!!
I have Disney's Dinosaur to thanks for my now unconditional love for Pachyrhinosaurus. Loved the model, loved mattel's mini figure i got in an egg back then. True masterpiece of a Dinosaur, change my mind !
Paul Verhoeven, director of ROBOCOP and Total Recall, was goung to direct the movie using stop motion animation by Oscar Winning VFX artist Phil Tippet, who did VFX for Jurassic Park. The story was going to involve a Styracosaurus named Root protecting his family from a Tyrannosaurus named Gronzi harassing them for far too long. Root tracks down and kills Gronzi, and Root reunites with his family, until the 6 mile wide asteroid slams into the Earth, wiping out the dinosaurs. The film would show that lemurs survived and that it wasn't the end, but the beginning of the human race.
Woot, not Root. Also, other dinosaurs that were supposed to be in the film included Iguanodon (ironic, isn't it), Pachycephalosaurus, Thescelosaurus, Parksosaurus, Rhamphorhnychus, Dorygnathus, and Pteranodon.
Im sorry but the way the creatures move, for example the Carnotaurus charging at the hard....the mas, the weight, the tail curling to the right as it drags the prey over....brilliantr
Reckon the duo carnotaurus were supposed to be a mated pair, or a parent with a child. The large one that survived the cave in (from what I remember reading in the junior novel of the movie) had gone on a revenge rampage. It basically snapped and made a suicidal charge at the herd when normally a more cautious carnivore would not really attack a huge herd of herbivores at all.
I always thought the big boss on Bruton and Kron’s noses were meant to be sort of references to the much earlier description of Iguanodon where the thumb spike was thought to be a horn on its nose.
I always, even as a kid, thought Kron and Bruton were supposed to be "Austrialian Iguanodons" = Muttaburrasaurus like seen in the 5th episode of Walking with Dinosaurs. I thought so because their noses look somewhat simular.
15:04 Some social animals have dominant males which are bigger and have more exaggerated features than their subordinates. I'm not an expert on this topic, but from what I can remember, the lower ranking males' features are inhibited by the presence of the dominant males. So it could explain why the other Iguanodonts are smaller than Crone and Bruton, both of which are at the top of the social hierarchy. However, this doesn't take into account why Aladar doesn't grow such features after he becomes the leader. I'll excuse it as the producers not wanting to confuse the audience, which wouldn't understand the change.
16:11 At the time the film was being produced, Altirhiuns was still considered part of the now dubious species Iguanodon orientalis. So, it's possible that they used the big nosed "Iguanodon" design and then applied some "Hollywood magic" to make them look more intimidating. Funnily enough, by the time the film came out, Altirhinus had been assigned to it's own genus.
I do have my own headcanon that the giant monstrous Carnotaurs in the movie are not actually the species Carnotaurus Sastrei but are instead a speculative much larger and more bulkier species that evolved from them to fill the niche that tyrannosaurs have
Actually, if you look closely the Geosternbergia does have pycnofibers on its back. I agree it needs more, but considering when this movie came out, its impressive any way included. As for feathers, originally the Velociraptors, Oviraptors, and Struthis were gonna have them, but they turned out to be wayyyy to complicated to animate at the time, which is fair. How many shows or movies back then had CGI birds that looked good
Man, the CGI in this movie is so crazy. This must be one of the only movies where the scenes go from "TV show made for toddlers" to "Wait, they got real footage of carnotaurus?"
For me the main issue with the Struthiomimus is that the skull seems to be closer in shape to Gallimimus! I do wonder if that's a case of misnaming in that regard.
I hope they do a sequel, prequel, or a medical, or matter of fact, a series of this movie I’m actually shocked you’re not a fan of the movie because a lot of fans love it but the only problem I have with it is that the pacing was very fast, but it is what it is but other than that it’s still one of the best movies ever and it’s hard to say, which is my second favorite dinosaur movie either Disney dinosaur or the land before Time because they both have very good stories and yeah, even though it’s not accurate, you can still enjoy the story and story is the most important thing
Seeing 23:07 when i was a little kid always unnerved me. Just getting eaten is scary, especially when you're ripped apart. Watching Brutus devour flesh makes my stomach turn upside down
Well, I knew it! It's got plenty of accurate parts and plenty egregious. PS I just thought this was an anachronistic adventure no different from Vikings with horned helmets or Somali pirates dressed like conventional Caribbean pirates.
4:28 Actually, Longisquama made an appearance before Aladar's egg was sent to the lemurs. 15:08 I think I know what was going on here. So during the time of Dinosaur's production, the genus of Iguanodon was considered a cosmopolitan taxa. Essentially, the name was given to various species, including the Americas and Asia. After the time of the film, the name went under tons of revision, making it less of a wastebasket and more of a streamlined classification with currently two species from Europe. Kron and Bruton likely represent Asian relatives. Now it's true that those animals were smaller, but let's not forget we're talking about a film where the Carnotaurus are T. rex sized.
Why Baylene ( the Brachiosaurus ) Is the last of her kind was most likely because Sauropods are both big and slow, most of them could have died of the toxic ashes, the Insane temperatures or could have been hit by falling rocks. Not only that, they need an Insane amount of food in order to survive each day. There still could be other Brachiosauruses out there who survived, but they would possibly only be little ones because the bigger ones probably got hit or starved already. In the raptor scene there were still grass growing, so it is more likely for younger Brachiosauruses to still be alive, hopefully when they get bigger there is enough food to sustain them. We only saw two Carnotaurus in the movie ( The one in the beginning of the movie could be a third one or one of the two we see later ) their species could have gone extinct because of the lack of prey and their habitat being destroyed forcing them to move ''North'' stated by Kron and Bruton in the film. The raptors on the other hand, they could have survived just maybe. The first time we saw them, there were around 8 of them but later there were only 3, they could have split off to find food.
I think it depends on whether you consider it a Pteranodon species or its own genus, or if there's a study that definitely decides the matter (for simplicity's sake I will not make a judgement on the matter)
For bruton and krohn the artbook says the idea for them was a mix of modern(at the time) and old images of iguanadon, the bone crest on the nose is the giveaway for krohn since old iguanadon had the thumb as a nose spike and bruton is a giant thats pretty evened out not arched like the old paleoart. So yeah they just used old art😅
This movie was certainly my first introduction to Carnotaurus; although at the time, I didn't realise that was the name; I just thought the characters couldn't pronounce "carnivore".
I remember hearing, somewhere, idk where, that they originally planned to use t rexes for the carnotauruses? But I think they changed it because either the rexes were too overplayed/predictable or they wanted to show off somehting cool and distinct (which worked, little kid me loved those badass red horned theropods so much that they, and the species, still holds a special place in my heart) I love t rex as much as the next guy but it does get overplayed as hell. Show me some carnotaurs and allosauruses and tarbosauruses and yuutyrannuses and what not.
The velociraptor design makes me so happy given there realistic proportions of there body’s and its the highlight for me seeing as it’s not common to see in media anyway only issue which is not that big of a issue seeing as the feathers and it’s ok for me because it was hotly debated at the time & not excepted at the time.
To be fair they were planning to add feathers on velociraptors (and struthiomimus too i quess) but due to deadline and difficulty of animating them they decided to refuse from this idea
and about lemurs.. Initially, instead of them there should have been ordinary mammals from the Cretaceous period, but then they were replaced with lemurs as the most suitable and child-friendly replacement
One reason why Url is so inaccurate for an Ankylosaurus is because he isn't an Ankylosaurus at all, because on the DVD specials his character designer said he's actually based on an Euoplocephalus. There's also concept art where the Carnotaurus was realistically sized, being around the same size if not slightly smaller than Iguanodon. The reason Carnotaurus was so ridiculously big in the film was because it was added so late in production they had no time to down size it from the original carnivorous antagonist Tyrannosaurus.
I had noticed that there were different types of dinosaurs in this movie from several different parts of the world that would have never met each other. Carnotaurus lived in South America and Oviraptor and Velociraptor lived in Asia. The others lived in North America

Of course, that’s still debated if it should be a unique genus. While not scientifically plausible, it’s possible Kron and Brutons nasal designs are based on the first depictions of iguanodon.
"younger depiction are too frail and hornless ! They'll never make it"
Bruton, to Kron
Url wasn't the only ankylosaur in the film. There were 2 Talarurus in the beginning as the egg was passing by.
Thinking about it this makes a lot more sense. Its like you if took the Crystal Palace depiction directly and tried to "modernize it" to be more dinosaur-like without actually knowing what Iguanodon should look like.
@chubibi06
I like this, is a more meta interpretation. Kron and Bruton have older designs that would be easier to intimidate other iguanodons and make them leaders.
In defense of Kron's & Bruton's unique physical features: there're are animal species in which males have certain characteristics that can be either developed or not. The best example are orangutans with their big, meaty cheeks. When males mature they can "choose" to grow these cheeks to show that they're dominant males - or not grow them, and then they look pretty much like females.
Maybe here it's a similar thing - since Kron and Bruton are dominant males with high levels of testosterone, it might be the reason why they developed nose crests, larger frame, humps and back spikes - while Aladar lived his entire life with lemurs, so he never had the need to develop these features of a dominant male (no interspecies combat, no need to fight for females etc). That's just how I see it.
(Ps. Sorry for grammar. English is not my first language - but paleontology is my first love. Haha)
That’s a good theory
Your English typing is better than most native speakers' typing, good job
This was my theory as well
It’s a good theory in premise but the evolutionary traits of the male species wouldn’t be held back on one individual just because he happened to grow up in an environment where those features weren’t necessary - that’s not how evolution really works: it’s more so in a collective sense when an entire species develops a need to acquire a new trait to adapt and push the entire species forward (Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium). It’s possible that he may have lacked the development of these features because of genetic defects or something along those lines, though.
The two Carnotaurus’ are male and female, with the bigger surviving one (till the end) being named Brutus in the script, he also appears at the beginning of the story.
Oh really? This actually answers the question I’ve had for years on why they looked different. Also does the female have a name?
@@Greenthero unfortunately no
@@Greentherowhy wouldn't two Individuals of the same species look different? Literally every single individual living thing even the ones with no distinct differences like humans are unique.
@@blueguy2128 wait I thought it was only specific species that had individual variation, like humans or tigers?
@@Greenthero I'll use Komodo Dragons and Crocodiles as examples. They all "look the same" right? Having minimal sexual dimorphism between the two sexes and all sharing distinct crocodile or komodo dragon characteristics. But no individual croc or dragon is an exact copy of the other. They still have individuals with their own personality preferences and variations in physical size and features.
The filmmakers did mention that brachiosaurids were around during the Cretaceous for a little while such a sauroposeidon since it is in the family, that’s why they were doing a reference at the time
Baylene is what, 50 million year old ? Still looking great for her age
Not to mention other species like Argentinosaurus as well.
@@penquinzz9044 that’s a Titanosaur
Titanosaurs are actually decendents of brachiosaurs
(I think)
15:04 It could be that the size and additional adornments are like what happens with silverbacks and orangoutangs and many other primates where only the dominant males grow bigger and have display features while the males who haven’t bred/haven’t won leadership do not develop the dominant features until they can win a fight and breeding rights. You kinda also see it with anoles and iguanas, though I’m not sure to what extent it is age vs dominance in those species.
That's how I see it as well.
As for Baylene, I think there was a strange thing going on in the 1990's and early 2000's where its believed that Brachiosaurus (or a creature that was similar to brachiosaurus) lived for a few million years into the Creataceous, but not very long. As for the extinction of Baylenes species, most likely Baylene hasnt found any other Brachiosaurs, so without any way to find out its probably likely she believes she is truely the last of her kind. Another possibility is that the Carnotaurs have practically hunted them down. Baylene seems very afraid of the Carnotaurs, specifically pairs as she points out in the movie how 2 Carnotaurs would be significantly worse than 1, which, while true, she freaks out the most after saying it. This wouldnt make much sense, even with the oversized carnos, but it must be the case, why else would Baylene (while old, shes still huge and strong as we see in the cave scene) be afraid of creatures that much less than half her size. Most Likely Carnotaurs around the continent eventually became more confident, or found a near foolproof strategy to bring down Brachiosaurs.
My stance is, when something is made for entertainment, I don’t care about palae-accuracy, when I watch things like Disney’s Dinosaur, Jurassic Park, King Kong, Primeval, Dinosaur King etc all I want are cool visually appealing distinct designs with verisimilitude.
I’ll criticise a bad design for being either ugly, messy, not really resembling the animal it’s meant to be etc but accuracy isn’t a factor, if I want that, I’ll watch a documentary.

Completely different context,
but I think it perfectly applies here!
I mean, there should be a baseline minimum accuracy so you can at least tell what the animal is supposed to be
@@insectilluminatigetshrekt5574
Yeah, you gotta get the general look of the animal down, that’s required, but you don’t need to be 100% accurate, just make a cool looking design.
@SmashBrosAssemble it depends on what kind of movie/show it is. I think there are some fictional plots that would require accurate dinosaurs. Like if it's supposed to be a realistic fiction kind of thing of what would dinosaurs in captivity actually be like. By the way, almost all dinosaur movies up to and including the first jurassic park tried making their dinosaurs as accurate as they could for the time.

*_H O W T H O U G H ? ? ? ! ! !_*
What the heck are those "velociraptors" ?
My theory is that Url the Ankylosaur is disabled.
They did have ridiculously small brains, so that might be why he is basically a dog compared to others
😂
he's on disability
One thing i did notice about the Carnos is that the smaller one not only was smaller, it was also faster and FAR more reckless and aggressive. Im guessing it was a father/child situation where the "fireball" drove them out of their home and they stuck together to survive, then they found the scent of the herd and followed it for food and the rest is history.
Probably
Another theory that I've heard is that they were a mated pair, though I agree that the 'fireball' drove them out of their typical range and were following the herd in search of their next meal.
Once again, you got Url wrong. Dinosaurs character designer David Krentz confirmed Url is a Euoplocephalus
I remember from a tie-in magazine from Dinosaur that Bruton and Kron where based on Muttaburrasaurus since they were believed to be Iguanodontids back when the movie was in development, they also called Ur Euoplocephalus.
Also as a minor point, Bruton and Kron are not Iguanodon, they are Altirhinus. I know the question is "well if thats the case how is he Neera's Brother". Well that leads to one of two things. Either they are trying to say that Iguanodon and Altirhinus are so close that they can interbreed (probably not), or Kron was adopted, I doubt Neera was adopted since Iguanodon seem to be so much more populous than Altirhinus, who might be going extinct due to competition with their close cousins.
I have the old special edition multi-disc dvd with all the bonus features as well as the large making-of book… it has A LOT of insight on the designs.
I know the iguanadon character designs were made so you could tell them apart easily. The trick if they were all shadowed, you could still tell who’s who. In the art book Zondag says: “We’d add a little bit of a bump on the nose or change the shape of the beak a little. We’d find what we could an exaggerate it.” It specifies that Kron’s was meant to look intimidating with this thick neck and big chin… Bruton was also very robust and rhino-like. So in the end… just character design :D
Interesting
I just realized the lemurs were included as implied human ancestors. They chose lemurs despite the temporal displacement to make that connection more visible. That, or they just needed the mammalian sidekicks to be able to climb on Aladar's back
I always thought the reason Burton and Kron had a horn like thing on their nose was a reference to paleontologist thinking iguanadons thumb spike was a nasal horn
Actually, leptoceratops was not in the movie. The small ceraptopsians are Microceratus( known at the time as Microceratops)
Also, the velociraptors were indeed originally planned to be feathered but the feathers got left out
Actually if you look really closely at the pteranodon wean it drops the egg and the babies in the nest they do have some fluff something I just now noticed
Yeah and if you look closely the adult does have pycnofibors you just have to pause and look
I have noticed that
So apparently, the whole "cretaceous brachiosaur" conundrum was a common misconception from the late 90s to the early 2000s, as some sauropod fossils from early cretaceous Tunisia were once assigned specifically to Brachiosaurus, and as such a lot of dinosaur books from that time mentioned its temporal range as going from the jurassic to the cretaceous. Needless to say, those fossils are no longer believed to belong to Brachiosaurus, and I'm pretty sure they're currently nameless, though I don't remember if it's classified as a brachiosaurid still or if that changed. Weirdly, Iguanodon and Hypsilophodon were also often mentioned to range from the jurassic to the cretaceous back then, likely due to wastebin taxonomy.
Here's a list of animals I'd choose if I were to make a more "scientifically accurate" update of Disney's Dinosaur. The time for my setting is ~68 MYA; due to this, many animals from ~2 million years prior or later appear in this update. ~2 million years isn't that big of a stretch, so it's possible there could've been some overlap; with some creatures starting to become extinct & others just starting to appear.
The setting of my update is Laramidia (the Western Half of North America - no specific subsection). Due to the natural disaster (either a smaller asteroid impact event or a volcanic eruption), species from both the Northern & Souther sections of Laramidia are present here. The natural disaster caused many species to become displaced & they're now able to meet/interact with each other:
Kritosaurus navajouvius - Replacement for the Iguanodon.
Struthiomimus sedens - Same as the original but now with feathers.
Avisaurus archibaldi - Replacement fro the Ichthyornis.
Hypacrosaurus altispinus - Replacement for the Parasaurolophus.
Pachyrhinosaurus canadensis - Same genus as the original but a different species for the update.
Alamosaurus sanjuanensis - Replacement for the Brachiosaurus.
Palaeosaniwa canadensis - Replacement for the Longisquama.
Albertosaurus sarcophagus - Replacement for the Carnotaurus. I didn't want to go with either Tyrannosaurus or Nanuqsaurus, Tyrannosaurus is overused & Nanuqsaurus is too far North, so I decided to go with a this tyrannosaur for the update. Albertosaurus is, in some ways, the tyrannosaur equivalent of a Carnotaurus. I was considering a trio (instead of a duo) pack of Albertosaurus, with one being an exceptionally large individual (hip height of ~3.5 meters & length of ~10 meters) & the other two being average size (hip height of ~3 meters & length of ~9 meters).
Leptorhynchos gaddisi - Replacement for the Oviraptor.
Champsosaurus annectens - Replacement for the Koolasuchus.
Glyptodontopelta mimus - Replacement for the Talarurus.
Tethydraco regalis - Replacement for the Geosternbergia. While its' fossils have been found in North Africa, it could've had a larger distribution due to it possibly being analogous to Sea Birds.
Mosasaurus hoffmanni - A creature that had a fully rendered model but was cut from the final; so I decided to include it in the update. Being an marine animal, it likely could've had a global distribution.
Purgatorius sp. - Replacement for the Lemurs.
Dineobellator notoheseprus - Replacement for the Velociraptors.
Regaliceratops peterhewsi - Replacement for the Styracosaurus.
Leptoceratops gracilis - Replacement for the Microceratus.
Anodontosaurus lambei - Replacement for the Ankylosaurus/Euoplocephalus.
Sphaerotholus buchholtzae, edmontonensis or triregnum - Replacement for the Stygimoloch. I couldn't decide on which species, seeing as all three fit the temporal & geographical setting of the update, so any of the three could work.
As iconic as this film's version of Carnotaurus is, they really focused on making him seem like a powerhouse-type predator like T-Rex, when in reality it was a speed demon-style predator (a Cretaceous cheetah, as it has often been described). So in that respect, the Terra Nova Carnotaurus is actually MUCH closer to the real Carnotaurus, except its arms are WAY too big. If you took the Terra Nova Carnotaurus, and gave it the arms of the Disney Carnotaurus, you'd probably have a design that's nearly exactly up to modern scientific standards.
5:14 It's not even a Pteranodon.
Perhaps the carno was suffering from gigantism?
Maybe
7:04 Two of my favorite dinosaur related pieces of media combined into one. You sir are a man of quality. This makes me want to see what how you’d do an accuracy review on the Dinosaur episode of Zoboomafo would be like. The dinosaurs in that episode being Brontosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, Stegosaurus and Edmontosaurus (called a Duckbill, but the model is very obviously based on Edmontosaurus.)
Also at 5:40 the small ceratopsian seen in the herd is actually Microceratus (known as Microceratops at the time the film came out.)
Welcome back Tim. I forgot this accuracy review series was even a thing for a while.
I always found it interesting how kron and aladar fought. And the use of the thump spike
The Disney carno is actually 7m tall and the iguanodons are 5m tall everything in the movie is oversized
I think Brute is Muttaburrasaurus, because in 2000s Muttaburrasaurus looked like iguanodon with big nose(now it's giant Kangaroo)
You should have a look at the Minecraft mod “prehistoric nature” it has over 800 prehistoric animals from the pre-cambrian all the way to the Jurassic at the moment the Jurassic is still being worked on so yea but they are going until the present day the creatures are as accurate as they can be within the restrictions of Minecraft and they will update animals and there models if new research comes out on them with noticeable differences
I think the Brachiosaurus featured in the movie might be a reference to a time when these long necked Dinosaurs were thought to have lived right into the Early Cretaceous.
Sauropods lived during Cretaceous, just not Brachiosaurus and related species.
Alright The Disney Dinosaur Accuracy Portait
I love the fact that some of the scenes were shoot in real locations.
Geostenbergia is actually feathered/fuzzy and I love the model and colors.
Still, my personal favorite ones are Velociraptor, Struthiomimmus and Oviraptor. They are so funny and unique.
An awesome review of a trully spectacular movie !!!
Not quite sure how you did it, but I watched this entire video without knowing or understanding about 60% of the words you were saying. Well done.
I have Disney's Dinosaur to thanks for my now unconditional love for Pachyrhinosaurus. Loved the model, loved mattel's mini figure i got in an egg back then.
True masterpiece of a Dinosaur, change my mind !
Paul Verhoeven, director of ROBOCOP and Total Recall, was goung to direct the movie using stop motion animation by Oscar Winning VFX artist Phil Tippet, who did VFX for Jurassic Park.
The story was going to involve a Styracosaurus named Root protecting his family from a Tyrannosaurus named Gronzi harassing them for far too long.
Root tracks down and kills Gronzi, and Root reunites with his family, until the 6 mile wide asteroid slams into the Earth, wiping out the dinosaurs. The film would show that lemurs survived and that it wasn't the end, but the beginning of the human race.
Woot, not Root. Also, other dinosaurs that were supposed to be in the film included Iguanodon (ironic, isn't it), Pachycephalosaurus, Thescelosaurus, Parksosaurus, Rhamphorhnychus, Dorygnathus, and Pteranodon.
Im sorry but the way the creatures move, for example the Carnotaurus charging at the hard....the mas, the weight, the tail curling to the right as it drags the prey over....brilliantr
Pteranodon? Isn't that a Geosternbergia?
Reckon the duo carnotaurus were supposed to be a mated pair, or a parent with a child. The large one that survived the cave in (from what I remember reading in the junior novel of the movie) had gone on a revenge rampage. It basically snapped and made a suicidal charge at the herd when normally a more cautious carnivore would not really attack a huge herd of herbivores at all.
Both theories are possible
I always thought the big boss on Bruton and Kron’s noses were meant to be sort of references to the much earlier description of Iguanodon where the thumb spike was thought to be a horn on its nose.
I remember when I was a kid, I thought Kron and Bruton was supposed to be Muttaburrasaurus.
I always, even as a kid, thought Kron and Bruton were supposed to be "Austrialian Iguanodons" = Muttaburrasaurus like seen in the 5th episode of Walking with Dinosaurs. I thought so because their noses look somewhat simular.
They do look similar
The baby Pteranodon/Geosternergia have fuzz, this blew my mind when i noticed it in my last rewatch
Oh my god I had this on video as a child and I had completely forgotten about it for more than 15 years until now
Been watching your videos for the past few months now keep up the good work
I heard that it’s actually implied that Bruton and kron are based on muttaburrasaurus
I once heard the bruton was suposed to be a mutaburrasaurus, not an iguanodon, but atill
The scene when the meteors destroyed the island and killed most of the lemurs is one of the saddest scenes in a Disney movie
Easily a top 10 Disney movie
“Allosaurus had never seen such bullsh*t before” caught me so off guard and I was dying. 😂😂
Man I remember when this movie came out, I was just I little kid. I had a plastic Aladar puppet that I always played with.
15:04 Some social animals have dominant males which are bigger and have more exaggerated features than their subordinates. I'm not an expert on this topic, but from what I can remember, the lower ranking males' features are inhibited by the presence of the dominant males. So it could explain why the other Iguanodonts are smaller than Crone and Bruton, both of which are at the top of the social hierarchy. However, this doesn't take into account why Aladar doesn't grow such features after he becomes the leader. I'll excuse it as the producers not wanting to confuse the audience, which wouldn't understand the change.
16:11 At the time the film was being produced, Altirhiuns was still considered part of the now dubious species Iguanodon orientalis. So, it's possible that they used the big nosed "Iguanodon" design and then applied some "Hollywood magic" to make them look more intimidating. Funnily enough, by the time the film came out, Altirhinus had been assigned to it's own genus.
Just in time, yesterday I reminded myself of this movie, and today red raptor posts it, heck yeah
I do have my own headcanon that the giant monstrous Carnotaurs in the movie are not actually the species Carnotaurus Sastrei but are instead a speculative much larger and more bulkier species that evolved from them to fill the niche that tyrannosaurs have
22:46 😂😂😂 What did he saaaaayyyyyy???
Actually, if you look closely the Geosternbergia does have pycnofibers on its back. I agree it needs more, but considering when this movie came out, its impressive any way included. As for feathers, originally the Velociraptors, Oviraptors, and Struthis were gonna have them, but they turned out to be wayyyy to complicated to animate at the time, which is fair. How many shows or movies back then had CGI birds that looked good
I remember having the DVD of it but the backside of the DVD called the Iguanodon, Edmontosaurus instead
I had the Carnotaurus happy meal toy as a kid, it was a rubber hand puppet and that thing terrified me.
Man, the CGI in this movie is so crazy. This must be one of the only movies where the scenes go from "TV show made for toddlers" to "Wait, they got real footage of carnotaurus?"
The CGI in this movie is better than most CGI today
For me the main issue with the Struthiomimus is that the skull seems to be closer in shape to Gallimimus! I do wonder if that's a case of misnaming in that regard.
I always loved this movie. Scared me so much when I was a kid
One of my coworkers said that she watched it for the first time when she was a little kid and the Carnotaurus gave her nightmares
Never thought I’d see this but I really enjoyed it
I hope they do a sequel, prequel, or a medical, or matter of fact, a series of this movie I’m actually shocked you’re not a fan of the movie because a lot of fans love it but the only problem I have with it is that the pacing was very fast, but it is what it is but other than that it’s still one of the best movies ever and it’s hard to say, which is my second favorite dinosaur movie either Disney dinosaur or the land before Time because they both have very good stories and yeah, even though it’s not accurate, you can still enjoy the story and story is the most important thing
Seeing 23:07 when i was a little kid always unnerved me. Just getting eaten is scary, especially when you're ripped apart. Watching Brutus devour flesh makes my stomach turn upside down
Well, I knew it! It's got plenty of accurate parts and plenty egregious.
PS I just thought this was an anachronistic adventure no different from Vikings with horned helmets or Somali pirates dressed like conventional Caribbean pirates.
8:49 did you call strutiomimus a maniraptoran? Btw I love your videos and I'm glad you're back!
4:28 Actually, Longisquama made an appearance before Aladar's egg was sent to the lemurs.
15:08 I think I know what was going on here. So during the time of Dinosaur's production, the genus of Iguanodon was considered a cosmopolitan taxa. Essentially, the name was given to various species, including the Americas and Asia. After the time of the film, the name went under tons of revision, making it less of a wastebasket and more of a streamlined classification with currently two species from Europe. Kron and Bruton likely represent Asian relatives. Now it's true that those animals were smaller, but let's not forget we're talking about a film where the Carnotaurus are T. rex sized.
Wasn't URL based on Euoplocephalus tutus? The making of team on the special feature turnboard Says this
As someone who grew up with this movie and constantly rewatching this more then 15 times , I couldn't stop huming the music in the intro scenes 😂
australia wrights a big "DO NOT COME HER, WE DON'T WANT YOU" with it's animals
Why Baylene ( the Brachiosaurus ) Is the last of her kind was most likely because Sauropods are both big and slow, most of them could have died of the toxic ashes, the Insane temperatures or could have been hit by falling rocks. Not only that, they need an Insane amount of food in order to survive each day. There still could be other Brachiosauruses out there who survived, but they would possibly only be little ones because the bigger ones probably got hit or starved already. In the raptor scene there were still grass growing, so it is more likely for younger Brachiosauruses to still be alive, hopefully when they get bigger there is enough food to sustain them.
We only saw two Carnotaurus in the movie ( The one in the beginning of the movie could be a third one or one of the two we see later ) their species could have gone extinct because of the lack of prey and their habitat being destroyed forcing them to move ''North'' stated by Kron and Bruton in the film. The raptors on the other hand, they could have survived just maybe. The first time we saw them, there were around 8 of them but later there were only 3, they could have split off to find food.
Finally! I waited way to long for this
I'm pretty sure that the Pterosaur from the opening scene was Geosternbergia based on the crest shape instead of Pteranodon.
I think it depends on whether you consider it a Pteranodon species or its own genus, or if there's a study that definitely decides the matter (for simplicity's sake I will not make a judgement on the matter)
For bruton and krohn the artbook says the idea for them was a mix of modern(at the time) and old images of iguanadon, the bone crest on the nose is the giveaway for krohn since old iguanadon had the thumb as a nose spike and bruton is a giant thats pretty evened out not arched like the old paleoart. So yeah they just used old art😅
I think I have seen an upright-tail dragging carnotaurus somewhere
This movie was certainly my first introduction to Carnotaurus; although at the time, I didn't realise that was the name; I just thought the characters couldn't pronounce "carnivore".
memba going to my cousin's house to watch this on VHS
I remember hearing, somewhere, idk where, that they originally planned to use t rexes for the carnotauruses? But I think they changed it because either the rexes were too overplayed/predictable or they wanted to show off somehting cool and distinct (which worked, little kid me loved those badass red horned theropods so much that they, and the species, still holds a special place in my heart) I love t rex as much as the next guy but it does get overplayed as hell. Show me some carnotaurs and allosauruses and tarbosauruses and yuutyrannuses and what not.
The velociraptor design makes me so happy given there realistic proportions of there body’s and its the highlight for me seeing as it’s not common to see in media anyway only issue which is not that big of a issue seeing as the feathers and it’s ok for me because it was hotly debated at the time & not excepted at the time.
To be fair they were planning to add feathers on velociraptors (and struthiomimus too i quess) but due to deadline and difficulty of animating them they decided to refuse from this idea
This was my favorite movie as a kid. Wore the VHS tape out
and about lemurs.. Initially, instead of them there should have been ordinary mammals from the Cretaceous period, but then they were replaced with lemurs as the most suitable and child-friendly replacement
One reason why Url is so inaccurate for an Ankylosaurus is because he isn't an Ankylosaurus at all, because on the DVD specials his character designer said he's actually based on an Euoplocephalus. There's also concept art where the Carnotaurus was realistically sized, being around the same size if not slightly smaller than Iguanodon. The reason Carnotaurus was so ridiculously big in the film was because it was added so late in production they had no time to down size it from the original carnivorous antagonist Tyrannosaurus.
I had noticed that there were different types of dinosaurs in this movie from several different parts of the world that would have never met each other. Carnotaurus lived in South America and Oviraptor and Velociraptor lived in Asia. The others lived in North America
Plot twist: Those carnotaurus aren't adults yet
"Why does a dinosaur owns another dinosaur?"
The same reason a mammal owns another mammal
Will you ever review the first land before time
People working on the movie said breaks looked like coconuts slaping together so thats why there is no beaks
Make a heisei Godzilla accuracy review as he was originally a dinosaur
32:09 my theory is that Url looks different than them because he was domesticated.
The main character originally was to be a Styracosaurus. He may have ended up being an Iguanodon but there still are some Styracosaurus in the movie
I hate it when people compare these Dinosaurs to how people see them today they should compare these Dinosaurs to what they looked like at the time.
This video is truly fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed watching! Thank you!!!
