I really love how animalistic the carnotaur is. Especially during the end, it backs off to avoid injury and goes out for the seperated and injured. Not just that, even in the cave when it comes out of the rock pile, instead of going after them like a monster, it goes away to replenish its energy. It’s a perfect blend of nature and fiction.

*Fun fact:* The meteorite we saw in the movie is definitely not the one that killed half of the planet. At least not directly. When the meteorite hit one side of Earth, the shockwave could be felt on the other side. Also, the debris was so much that some flew across whole continents and hit on the other side. I think that's what we saw in the movie. Also some paleontologists believe that after the meteorite hit the whole planet went through a global warming in speedrun. This is why in the movie we see that many of the lakes and rivers are dried out. The earthshakes that went down went the impact came also explain the ravines and the landslides that sealed the entrance to the nesting ground.
This is such an underrated gem in my opinion, I absolutely love Dinosaur as it was one of the films that got me to love Dinosaurs in the first place and has a special place in my heart!! The visual effects are amazing for a 2000 film and James Newton Howard's score is outstanding, especially during the first few minutes of the film! I also love the Carnotaurus as it shows you can have a truly terrifying villain without any dialogue!! Amazing reaction Timothee and thank you for reacting to one of my favourite childhood films! Edit: Forgot to say that the Meteorite scene is so well done and gives you that real sense of fear
As soon as Plio got a closer and much better look at Bruton’s deep wounds, it immediately aroused her maternal instincts as a mum. She could tell just how much physical pain Bruton was in based on what his deep wounds looked like. She hated seeing him in that much physical pain and she felt sorry for him. She just wanted him to feel better. If she hadn’t done anything, it would have gone against her every maternal instinct as a mum. Her actions were motivated by her maternal instincts as a mum
The dinosaurs they have in the movie are Iguanodon, Styracosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus, Stygimoloch, Microceratus, Parasaurolophus, Velociraptors, Ankylosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Carnotaurus, and Struthiomimus 🦖🦕
@@lexramstudios1386 They went with Carnotaurus because it was a lesser-known dinosaur in the late 90s. Plus the Carnotaurus looks more like a villain with its horns.
Honestly no one is really the bad guy in the movie. They're all animals, Aladar in the movies is more moral like a human, you know thinking more like a human. But as for Kron he's acting more like an animal. Survival of the fittest after all. And that's what I love about this movie. It's so good.
I haven't seen this in about 20 years, but I loved ths as a kid. Until recently I had this book of the movie with a sound box thing with about 20 characters quotes from this movie, was one of my favorite things I had as a kid! i have not seen this in about 20 years, yet each line I hear and I immediately recognize it. Thank you for bring these memories back to me
10:30 Actually, fun fact. That is the running theory as to why early mammals survived the Mesozoic extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs. It's because they were 1. Scavengers/Omnivores/Insectivores. 2. Small. 3. Burrowed underground in dens to avoid the dinosaurs.
Dinosaur has such a mature them for a children’s movie. Humanitarianism and the nature of “survival of the fittest”. Aladar being the audience surrogate for humanitarianism, wanting everyone to survive. Kron being on the opposite end of the spectrum, having a hardcore survival of the fittest mentality which in itself becomes warped by his “human” pride and desire to maintain the status quo. Neither characters were necessarily wrong in this movie, at least from an ethical mindset. They both had valid points - but Kron had his arrogance warp the way nature actually works. The herd during the watering hole scene, they aren’t necessarily being “ridiculous” - but trying not to die. If you were dehydrated and your only chance at living and passing on your genes was right there, and hundreds of others were also trying to get to it - you would do anything you could to get that water too. It’s not their fault, they just don’t wanna die. When Bruton gets back to the herd, he made the situation *actively worse.* Sure, the Carno’s would find the herd eventually. But Kron gave them a blood trail, and a scent to follow. Again, not his fault - he wanted to live. However, he did done goof. He put the *entire herd* at risk to try and save himself. Selfish yes, but more than understandable. The Carnotaurus in particular weren’t even really villains. Just animals trying to survive. They’re carnivores, and need to eat meat. They deserved as much a chance to live as any of the characters. Such a good movie.
Nicely put. I would also say one of Kron’s weaknesses was adaptability. From how he spoke and acted, Kron had led the herd to the nesting grounds without issue in the past. With the destruction caused by the meteor, however, everything that he knew and accounted for were no longer set in stone. Instead of trying to find alternate solutions to the new problems, he tried to resolve them with his previous methods.
One of Disney’s overlooked gems! The dvd I had included a documentary about the making of the movie, it was especially interesting seeing how they made the 3D models and the meteor crashing.
Here’s some of fun facts about Dinosaur. -In the early stages of development, it was originally gonna be a lot more violent and scary. I’m glad they changed it up cause the Carnotaurus attack in the beginning was enough to traumatize me as a child. - Kron is played by Samuel E Wright aka Sebastian from The Little Mermaid. -Aladar is played by D.B Swneeney, who would later play as Sitka from Brother Bear -Jennifer Lopez was considered to play as Neera
I pretty much agree with you big time that this and The Lion King 1994 as well as Tarzan 1999 and Meet the Robinsons are way better than the Modern Disney Movies and kick the crap out of the Modern Disney Movies big time.
This movie is VERY underrated, and definitely one of Disney's darkest. I usually go into movies like this expecting death because it's literally a bunch of animals trying to survive in the wild lol
I saw this movie in the theater for one of my friend's birthdays. And loved it so much I got an Aladar plush not long after. I still have that plush. And in 2021 I got the giant talking Aladar action figure. It is such a fun movie, and underrated. And it is very nostalgic for me to watch it or listen to it's soundtrack again.
The cool thing about this movie is that they filmed real locations. So, the real world with cgi dinos. They filmed all over North America, some filming in Hawaii, and most notably a National Park in Venezuela.
Awesome reaction to this underrated Disney movie and this was my childhood favorite, this was my introduction to the Dinosaur creatures themselves long before I saw Jurassic Park or The Land Before Time.
This movie took a long, *LOONG* time to get made, going through many, many drafts and iterations. The main constant was a heroic _Iguanadon_ and his lemur friend traveling in a herd to a new home, dodging predators and butting heads with thtr herd's stubborn leader. At one point, the hero's name was Adam, he would have psychic dreams of the future, and had two grandparents who would sacrifice themselves to slow down the meat-eaters. Speaking of which, the predators were originally the tried-and-true _Tyrannosaurus rex_ , but again thanks to the long production time, _Carnotaurus_ fossils were first discovered during that time, and that horned skull was such an arresting image it was decided to make it the new bad guy. If you look at a modern reconstruction of a carnotaur, you'll see they were barely eye-level with _Iguanadon_ ; essentially, the movie just pasted horns on a _T. rex_ Amusingly, they owned up to that last part; in the queue for the DINOSAUR ride at Animal Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World, you'll see a sign under a carnotaur skeleton proclaoming it to be the subspecies _Carnotaurus robustus Floridanesis_ , roughly translated as "Giant meat-eating bull originating in Florida", a sly confession from all involved. Countdown to Extinction, as the ride was called when it first opened, was the first place these designs were shown to the public, a sneak-peak at the world of the movie, and of Aladar and the carnotaurs.
The way Disney filmed this movie was not exactly how many think they did. The "traditional" way to make this real life mixed with CGI is that you make the storyboard, film the real scenes and then add the 3D models to it, however, for this movie they went to the locations to take pictures, sent them back to the animation team who built the sceneries in 3D, recorded a raw shot of the scene that the director wanted played out and then the crew in the real locations filmed those exact angles from the 3D scenery and for the scenes with tall grass, specially in the paradisiatic location at the end of the movie, they filmed the scenes with a red-screen at the aproximate scale of the characters so they could mix the real grass with the CG characters without it looking really weird before the techbique to mix these two without a color-screen was even invented.
(At 25:40) You want to know what's sad that I like about Burton? He starts out like an asshole like Kron, but But the difference between Kron and him is, Bruton is one of those "I'm willing to die to learn from my mistakes" characters that redeem themselves. That and he proves he's willing to listen.
The moment where Nera finally defended Aladar and pushing Kron will always be my favorite moment in this movie. I never liked Kron because not only he left other dinosaurs to freaking die, but he was also so obsessed in wanting to be right and never wrong. And because of that ignorance, it’s what’s it caused his downfall not just as leader but also to lose his life. I won’t deny that his death was sad, but it was still his own fault for never listening to aladar, and all for what? Just because of his obsession in wanting to be right. It’s never wrong to admit when we are wrong.
Watching Dinosaur in the theater was a memorable experience, not only was I in that dinosaur loving faze of child hood with my hand puppet Aladar and kron heads but movies in general were always a big deal for us and going to the theater was a rare opportunity. Previous we had gone to see Tarzan and hadn’t made it past the first intro song when the power went out. The whole theater was given free movie vouchers and this was the movie we went to see with it.
As a total Dinosaur kid this movie was always an underrated favorite of mine, it was always a must-watch for me alongside the Jurassic Park and Land Before Time movies
Great Movie reaction of Dinosaur 2000, one of my favorites dinosaur movies and my favorite Disney movies of all time. I love this movie and it’s one of my favorites growing up and one of my favorite Dinosaur Movies of all time on point with the Dino King Movies, The Land Before Time 1988, Walking with Dinosaurs Prehistoric Planet 3D, Jurassic Park 1993 and Jurassic World 2015 and one of my favorite Disney Movies on point with The Lion King 1994, Meet the Robinsons, Tarzan 1999 and Wreck It Ralph. I still enjoy this movie till this day and it definitely holds up big time in my opinion. Great video and keep it up.
Fun fact: Iguanodon is one of the first discoverd dinosaurs ever. (If you don't count that people before that found them and tought that they were dragons)
I do remember seeing this on Disney Foxtel back in the day, I think it used to be on Disney Channel as a movie Saturday night thing or a Sunday night movie, I remember kinda liking the movie.
through years of watching a number of documentaries, on both prehistoric and modern animals alike, I must say, I like that the carnivores in this movie seem very realistic in terms of behaviour (certainly not accurate in physical design, but I'm not complaining), acting more careful and calculating like modern predators, rather than bloodthirsty war machines, since predators are usually more worried about getting injured, considering even a small injury could risk impacting their hunting ability and therefore starving to death as a result. Examples: The Carnotaur at the start (little fun fact; based upon the curvature of the brow horns, I'm fairly certain that it is also the larger of the two that appear later, meaning Aladar, though he never knew it, might have actually gone toe-to-toe with the same Carnotaur that basically orphaned him) selects the slower/weaker Pachyrhinosaurus for an easy meal The Raptors attack stragglers from the herd after carefully assessing their potential to fight back, as well as patiently waiting for prey to drop dead during the migration The Carnotaur near the end doesn't charge blindly into the herd to instigate a mass slaughter, but to create panic and pick out ideal targets, but when the herd presents a united front, it doesn't recklessly lash out, and wisely starts backing up in concern for its own wellbeing in hindsight, its just a nice change of pace from other Dinosaur media, where the carnivores are often presented as little more than vicious monsters, Sharptooth/Sharpteeth from The Land Before Time series, King Kong 2005, and 65 as examples
😎👍 For the record, James Newton Howard is an extremely prolific film composer. He also did the incidental music for "Atlantis, The Lost Empire" and "Treasure Planet."
I'm glad Yar became a great-grandad to Aladar and Neera's kids! That means his own daughter is a grandma! What's funny and interesting is that his reaction of holding his great-grandson is the same as holding his own grandson!😂
Aside from the dinosaurs in the other animals, all the backgrounds are all real places. The trees, the forest, the mountains, the caves, The landscapes, all of that is the only thing that real.
I do not give a Flying Farting Fig about what people say and how much paleontologists scoff this film; I loved this from when it came out and still do. One thing I have learned over the years is that if everyone else hates a film, I know I will like it.
I was huge fan of paleontology, play games, read books and watch movies and cartoons about 🦖. Carnosaurus (dinosaurs villains with horns) are my favorite dinosaurs. They look more like dragons than others, and for me they are the most ferocious(Although the Tyrannosaurus Rex is bigger). 🦖🦕
My mom took me to see this film when I was six years old and this was the first movie I watched in theatres back in 2000 and it was AMAZING and so AWESOME!
Fun fact: Dinosaur is probably Disney's animated film with the highest death count. 🤣 Also by far my favorite movie growing up. The mix between some real life shots and CGI was extremely impressive for its time. 💜🦖
@@SonamSlash meh, we don’t know how much of the earth was actually turned desolate by the meteor shower, their region could’ve been the worst, or the best, we don’t know, atleast with Mulan we have an idea of what the number is
@@phoebusapollo8365 ok fine, all the fish who died from the meteor > the number Mulan killed. A meteor is VERY hard to top, tho not taking away from Mulan cuz she had a crazy kill count.
@@SonamSlash well if we’re going to go for assumed deaths then all the millions of insects, wildlife, plant life, and just general path of destruction of fauna and flora that the Huns tore through China’s countryside + Huns Army + Imperial Army + people killed by the Huns I mean we can go into semantics or hypothetical deaths all we want but if we go by witnessed deaths onscreen or even deaths we can confirm Mulan has a much more visually confirmed death toll instead of a meteor strike that killed an unconfirmed amount of dinosaurs.
3:08 well Disney wants to show they can be brutal until we get angry parents acting like Karens at times Also that carnivore dinosaur is called a Carnotaurus and he took down a Pachyrhinosaurus
One of my favorite movies when i was a dinosaur loving child! I see the flaws today but still nice to watch. If i'm not wrong, all the backgrounds and environments are live action (except for specific shots like the meteor) and animals were added in them. Some shots like the egg moving in the nest at the beggining were also live action.
Oh I LOVE Disney’s Dinosaur! I just absolutely love the soundtrack of this movie and I absolutely love the storyline! This was one of my favorites in the early 2000s.
Dino Classic this is a childhood favorite that my siblings loved to watch all of the time back in the day. Other than Dinotopia which was 3-day series episodes but still good movies.
I still own this movie on VHS, alongside some of the toys,i was 4 when this movie came out, to me still holds up,the CGI,the music are still great to this day
All thought watching this and then watching Dino King now that made me cry a few times. Speckles: The Tarbosaurus the film was released under the title Dino King: which you can easily watch right here on UA-cam for free.
I always think that the carnotaurs are not the villain of the movie because they just did what they're suppose to do to survive. I think Kron is more of a villain
To answer your question, they merged CG with live action plates. Most of the environments were filmed live, which was smart given the CG limitations at the time but was very expensive. Apparently it was a box office success so it paid off.
I love this movie. I'll never forget seeing the opening chunk as a long trailer from the start of the view of the egg nest all the way until the flying dino dropped the egg onto the island. it really made me curious. I also loved that it was CGI dinos in real backgrounds. at least most of the backgrounds were real. Locations they used included Florida, Australia, and I think Hawaii that I remember off the top of my head. There was probably more for the desert scenes. The only problem I ever had with this movie was understanding Kron's motivation for how harsh he was to the herd. Yes, loss is expected on journeys like the one they took, and they can't be avoided. and sure, those few that fall will slow down predators that are following, but it will also draw the attention of other predators, and bigger ones, as proven by what happened when the Carnitors showed up by following the scent of the dead dinos. To me, Kron seemed almost.... eager to sacrifice part of the herd when there was no need. Even Bruton at the start was more merciful by trying to tell Kron "There is a more protected spot, further down-" but Kron cut him off as if choosing to be not as safe might lighten the load. It's not like the older dinos in the back were slowing down the herd at all. Other than that flaw I think its a great movie and I have a lot of fond memories of watching it when I was a kid.
I remember this movie. It's been a while so, not too much of it. I also remember the teaser trailer they had for it on Disney DVDs or VHSs (I honestly forget which).
I spend a big chunk of my childhood scared the hell of dinosaurs, and this movie is one of three reasons why The other two are A national geographic documentary about tyrannosaurus And the third is cartoon about dinosaurs with a blue cat
The first trailer for this movie was the first minutes of the film,the whole sequence of the egg traveling with that grandious soundtrack, with no release to or anything, just the title,it wsd shown before the release of Disney's Tarzan

I also love the Carnotaurus as it shows you can have a truly terrifying villain without any dialogue!!
Amazing reaction Timothee and thank you for reacting to one of my favourite childhood films!
Edit: Forgot to say that the Meteorite scene is so well done and gives you that real sense of fear
However, it is too similar to The Land Before Time in story structure and plot and theme.
As soon as Plio got a closer and much better look at Bruton’s deep wounds, it immediately aroused her maternal instincts as a mum. She could tell just how much physical pain Bruton was in based on what his deep wounds looked like. She hated seeing him in that much physical pain and she felt sorry for him. She just wanted him to feel better. If she hadn’t done anything, it would have gone against her every maternal instinct as a mum. Her actions were motivated by her maternal instincts as a mum
Rest in peace

The dinosaurs they have in the movie are Iguanodon, Styracosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus, Stygimoloch, Microceratus, Parasaurolophus, Velociraptors, Ankylosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Carnotaurus, and Struthiomimus 🦖🦕
There are no T-Rex in this movie.
@@nathancruz9172 I didn't say they're in the movie but they almost went with a T-Rex villain
Don't forget Oviraptors
@@lexramstudios1386 They went with Carnotaurus because it was a lesser-known dinosaur in the late 90s. Plus the Carnotaurus looks more like a villain with its horns.
Honestly no one is really the bad guy in the movie. They're all animals, Aladar in the movies is more moral like a human, you know thinking more like a human. But as for Kron he's acting more like an animal. Survival of the fittest after all. And that's what I love about this movie. It's so good.
I haven't seen this in about 20 years, but I loved ths as a kid. Until recently I had this book of the movie with a sound box thing with about 20 characters quotes from this movie, was one of my favorite things I had as a kid!
i have not seen this in about 20 years, yet each line I hear and I immediately recognize it. Thank you for bring these memories back to me
10:30 Actually, fun fact. That is the running theory as to why early mammals survived the Mesozoic extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs. It's because they were 1. Scavengers/Omnivores/Insectivores. 2. Small. 3. Burrowed underground in dens to avoid the dinosaurs.
Dinosaur has such a mature them for a children’s movie. Humanitarianism and the nature of “survival of the fittest”. Aladar being the audience surrogate for humanitarianism, wanting everyone to survive. Kron being on the opposite end of the spectrum, having a hardcore survival of the fittest mentality which in itself becomes warped by his “human” pride and desire to maintain the status quo.
Neither characters were necessarily wrong in this movie, at least from an ethical mindset. They both had valid points - but Kron had his arrogance warp the way nature actually works.
The herd during the watering hole scene, they aren’t necessarily being “ridiculous” - but trying not to die. If you were dehydrated and your only chance at living and passing on your genes was right there, and hundreds of others were also trying to get to it - you would do anything you could to get that water too. It’s not their fault, they just don’t wanna die.
When Bruton gets back to the herd, he made the situation *actively worse.* Sure, the Carno’s would find the herd eventually. But Kron gave them a blood trail, and a scent to follow. Again, not his fault - he wanted to live. However, he did done goof. He put the *entire herd* at risk to try and save himself. Selfish yes, but more than understandable.
The Carnotaurus in particular weren’t even really villains. Just animals trying to survive. They’re carnivores, and need to eat meat. They deserved as much a chance to live as any of the characters.
Such a good movie.
Nicely put. I would also say one of Kron’s weaknesses was adaptability. From how he spoke and acted, Kron had led the herd to the nesting grounds without issue in the past. With the destruction caused by the meteor, however, everything that he knew and accounted for were no longer set in stone. Instead of trying to find alternate solutions to the new problems, he tried to resolve them with his previous methods.
One of Disney’s overlooked gems! The dvd I had included a documentary about the making of the movie, it was especially interesting seeing how they made the 3D models and the meteor crashing.
Here’s some of fun facts about Dinosaur.
-In the early stages of development, it was originally gonna be a lot more violent and scary. I’m glad they changed it up cause the Carnotaurus attack in the beginning was enough to traumatize me as a child.
- Kron is played by Samuel E Wright aka Sebastian from The Little Mermaid.
-Aladar is played by D.B Swneeney, who would later play as Sitka from Brother Bear
-Jennifer Lopez was considered to play as Neera
This movie was awesome and nostalgic
Probably better than everything in modern Disney movies
I pretty much agree with you big time that this and The Lion King 1994 as well as Tarzan 1999 and Meet the Robinsons are way better than the Modern Disney Movies and kick the crap out of the Modern Disney Movies big time.
This movie is VERY underrated, and definitely one of Disney's darkest. I usually go into movies like this expecting death because it's literally a bunch of animals trying to survive in the wild lol
One of Disney's forgotten and underrated movies.
The 2000s was a time for forgotten and underrated Disney films
That and The Wild
I saw this movie in the theater for one of my friend's birthdays. And loved it so much I got an Aladar plush not long after. I still have that plush. And in 2021 I got the giant talking Aladar action figure.
It is such a fun movie, and underrated. And it is very nostalgic for me to watch it or listen to it's soundtrack again.
The cool thing about this movie is that they filmed real locations. So, the real world with cgi dinos. They filmed all over North America, some filming in Hawaii, and most notably a National Park in Venezuela.
4:19 every shot in this film is a mix of several Live Action shots stitched together to make the environment and CGI for the characters.
Awesome reaction to this underrated Disney movie and this was my childhood favorite, this was my introduction to the Dinosaur creatures themselves long before I saw Jurassic Park or The Land Before Time.
DUDE!!!! This movie is my ultimate Childhood movie!
38:03 me too
(At 13:27) It's clearly 80 ft tall. If it's nostrils are on top of its head, then it's a Brachiosaurus.
This movie took a long, *LOONG* time to get made, going through many, many drafts and iterations. The main constant was a heroic _Iguanadon_ and his lemur friend traveling in a herd to a new home, dodging predators and butting heads with thtr herd's stubborn leader. At one point, the hero's name was Adam, he would have psychic dreams of the future, and had two grandparents who would sacrifice themselves to slow down the meat-eaters.
Speaking of which, the predators were originally the tried-and-true _Tyrannosaurus rex_ , but again thanks to the long production time, _Carnotaurus_ fossils were first discovered during that time, and that horned skull was such an arresting image it was decided to make it the new bad guy.
If you look at a modern reconstruction of a carnotaur, you'll see they were barely eye-level with _Iguanadon_ ; essentially, the movie just pasted horns on a _T. rex_
Amusingly, they owned up to that last part; in the queue for the DINOSAUR ride at Animal Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World, you'll see a sign under a carnotaur skeleton proclaoming it to be the subspecies _Carnotaurus robustus Floridanesis_ , roughly translated as "Giant meat-eating bull originating in Florida", a sly confession from all involved. Countdown to Extinction, as the ride was called when it first opened, was the first place these designs were shown to the public, a sneak-peak at the world of the movie, and of Aladar and the carnotaurs.
The way Disney filmed this movie was not exactly how many think they did.
The "traditional" way to make this real life mixed with CGI is that you make the storyboard, film the real scenes and then add the 3D models to it, however, for this movie they went to the locations to take pictures, sent them back to the animation team who built the sceneries in 3D, recorded a raw shot of the scene that the director wanted played out and then the crew in the real locations filmed those exact angles from the 3D scenery and for the scenes with tall grass, specially in the paradisiatic location at the end of the movie, they filmed the scenes with a red-screen at the aproximate scale of the characters so they could mix the real grass with the CG characters without it looking really weird before the techbique to mix these two without a color-screen was even invented.
Damn, does anyone else remember and watch this nostalgic masterpiece?
(At 25:40) You want to know what's sad that I like about Burton? He starts out like an asshole like Kron, but But the difference between Kron and him is, Bruton is one of those "I'm willing to die to learn from my mistakes" characters that redeem themselves. That and he proves he's willing to listen.
My favorite Dinosaur movie, 25 years old and still love it.
(At 29:50) like I said, he's willing to die to learn from his mistakes. At least he killed one of them.
The first movie that I saw that had dinosaurs!! My favorite disney movie growing up and a stepping stone for Disney going into CGI. So nostalgic ❤🦖🦕
This movie is amazing since 2000… almost 24 years until May
The moment where Nera finally defended Aladar and pushing Kron will always be my favorite moment in this movie. I never liked Kron because not only he left other dinosaurs to freaking die, but he was also so obsessed in wanting to be right and never wrong. And because of that ignorance, it’s what’s it caused his downfall not just as leader but also to lose his life.
I won’t deny that his death was sad, but it was still his own fault for never listening to aladar, and all for what? Just because of his obsession in wanting to be right. It’s never wrong to admit when we are wrong.
It’s very tough for her. She had to choose, and choose fast. Because a second later could have been the end of Aladar
Watching Dinosaur in the theater was a memorable experience, not only was I in that dinosaur loving faze of child hood with my hand puppet Aladar and kron heads but movies in general were always a big deal for us and going to the theater was a rare opportunity. Previous we had gone to see Tarzan and hadn’t made it past the first intro song when the power went out. The whole theater was given free movie vouchers and this was the movie we went to see with it.
i remember this movie me and my mom (rest in peace) took us to see this movie on a school day such a classic
As a total Dinosaur kid this movie was always an underrated favorite of mine, it was always a must-watch for me alongside the Jurassic Park and Land Before Time movies
Great Movie reaction of Dinosaur 2000, one of my favorites dinosaur movies and my favorite Disney movies of all time.
I love this movie and it’s one of my favorites growing up and one of my favorite Dinosaur Movies of all time on point with the Dino King Movies, The Land Before Time 1988, Walking with Dinosaurs Prehistoric Planet 3D, Jurassic Park 1993 and Jurassic World 2015 and one of my favorite Disney Movies on point with The Lion King 1994, Meet the Robinsons, Tarzan 1999 and Wreck It Ralph.
I still enjoy this movie till this day and it definitely holds up big time in my opinion.
Great video and keep it up.
Fun fact: Iguanodon is one of the first discoverd dinosaurs ever. (If you don't count that people before that found them and tought that they were dragons)
I do remember seeing this on Disney Foxtel back in the day, I think it used to be on Disney Channel as a movie Saturday night thing or a Sunday night movie, I remember kinda liking the movie.
through years of watching a number of documentaries, on both prehistoric and modern animals alike, I must say, I like that the carnivores in this movie seem very realistic in terms of behaviour (certainly not accurate in physical design, but I'm not complaining), acting more careful and calculating like modern predators, rather than bloodthirsty war machines, since predators are usually more worried about getting injured, considering even a small injury could risk impacting their hunting ability and therefore starving to death as a result. Examples:
The Carnotaur at the start (little fun fact; based upon the curvature of the brow horns, I'm fairly certain that it is also the larger of the two that appear later, meaning Aladar, though he never knew it, might have actually gone toe-to-toe with the same Carnotaur that basically orphaned him) selects the slower/weaker Pachyrhinosaurus for an easy meal
The Raptors attack stragglers from the herd after carefully assessing their potential to fight back, as well as patiently waiting for prey to drop dead during the migration
The Carnotaur near the end doesn't charge blindly into the herd to instigate a mass slaughter, but to create panic and pick out ideal targets, but when the herd presents a united front, it doesn't recklessly lash out, and wisely starts backing up in concern for its own wellbeing
in hindsight, its just a nice change of pace from other Dinosaur media, where the carnivores are often presented as little more than vicious monsters, Sharptooth/Sharpteeth from The Land Before Time series, King Kong 2005, and 65 as examples
The background for the movie was live footage.
Dinosaur is my favorite disney movie. Also all of characters are very incredible.
😎👍 For the record, James Newton Howard is an extremely prolific film composer. He also did the incidental music for "Atlantis, The Lost Empire" and "Treasure Planet."
A underrated Disney movie with an amazing score and composer 🎼
I’ve been waiting for you to react to this movie ever since I subscribed. So, thank you *SO* much. This is a dream come true
It's such an amazing movie. I'm glad this movie was released the same year I was born. Lots of good movies in the 2000s
I just had flashbacks of having to call the theater for movie times
One of my favourite childhood movies and its just so underrated.
I'm glad Yar became a great-grandad to Aladar and Neera's kids!
That means his own daughter is a grandma!
What's funny and interesting is that his reaction of holding his great-grandson is the same as holding his own grandson!😂
Aside from the dinosaurs in the other animals, all the backgrounds are all real places. The trees, the forest, the mountains, the caves, The landscapes, all of that is the only thing that real.
I do not give a Flying Farting Fig about what people say and how much paleontologists scoff this film; I loved this from when it came out and still do. One thing I have learned over the years is that if everyone else hates a film, I know I will like it.
I was huge fan of paleontology, play games, read books and watch movies and cartoons about 🦖. Carnosaurus (dinosaurs villains with horns) are my favorite dinosaurs. They look more like dragons than others, and for me they are the most ferocious(Although the Tyrannosaurus Rex is bigger). 🦖🦕
this movie is so dark for a kids movie, the whole premise is them just trying not to die of hunger/thirst on top of being hunted by the carnosaurs
This is in my personal 10 favorite Disney movies. It's so underrated! The asteroid scene is absolutely crazy!
This is one of my top 10 favorite childhood movies.
Watched it countless times as a kid. Still love it to this day. And that soundtrack is just perfect
This movie is my childhood, loved it and still do❤ and the music is so good
James Newton Howard worked alongside Hans Zimmer on the Dark Knight Trilogy. He also did Unbreakable, Outbreaks, Jungle Cruise. Any others I missed?
Here is an interesting dino fact the carnivore that Aladar fought is actually a Carnotaurus, not a T-rex.
My mom took me to see this film when I was six years old and this was the first movie I watched in theatres back in 2000 and it was AMAZING and so AWESOME!
(At 1:38) When does trailer came out this was the first thing that was shown
38:26 I loved this background music 🎶
Fun fact: Dinosaur is probably Disney's animated film with the highest death count. 🤣
Also by far my favorite movie growing up. The mix between some real life shots and CGI was extremely impressive for its time. 💜🦖
Mulan killed an entire army using an avalanche 😭
@@phoebusapollo8365massacre vs extinction. Take ur pick 💀
@@SonamSlash meh, we don’t know how much of the earth was actually turned desolate by the meteor shower, their region could’ve been the worst, or the best, we don’t know, atleast with Mulan we have an idea of what the number is
@@phoebusapollo8365 ok fine, all the fish who died from the meteor > the number Mulan killed. A meteor is VERY hard to top, tho not taking away from Mulan cuz she had a crazy kill count.
@@SonamSlash well if we’re going to go for assumed deaths then all the millions of insects, wildlife, plant life, and just general path of destruction of fauna and flora that the Huns tore through China’s countryside + Huns Army + Imperial Army + people killed by the Huns
I mean we can go into semantics or hypothetical deaths all we want but if we go by witnessed deaths onscreen or even deaths we can confirm Mulan has a much more visually confirmed death toll instead of a meteor strike that killed an unconfirmed amount of dinosaurs.
3:08 well Disney wants to show they can be brutal until we get angry parents acting like Karens at times
Also that carnivore dinosaur is called a Carnotaurus and he took down a Pachyrhinosaurus
The environment is real, with the prehistoric animals cgi
One of my favorite movies when i was a dinosaur loving child! I see the flaws today but still nice to watch.
If i'm not wrong, all the backgrounds and environments are live action (except for specific shots like the meteor) and animals were added in them. Some shots like the egg moving in the nest at the beggining were also live action.
The meteorite was one of the scariest scenes I ever saw as a kid. Even now as an adult, the scene still stresses me out!
First time watching too Btw keep up the good work Tim👍
This is so good
Welcome aboard!
@@TimotheeReacts big fan man!
I still have this on VHS Tape 😂was one of my favorite movies
Oh I LOVE Disney’s Dinosaur! I just absolutely love the soundtrack of this movie and I absolutely love the storyline! This was one of my favorites in the early 2000s.
The cool thing about this film is the locations are actual locations in the world and the dinosaurs are all CG
Dino Classic this is a childhood favorite that my siblings loved to watch all of the time back in the day. Other than Dinotopia which was 3-day series episodes but still good movies.
I still own this movie on VHS, alongside some of the toys,i was 4 when this movie came out, to me still holds up,the CGI,the music are still great to this day
Such a hidden Gem!!! Greatest childhood movie i've EVER seen!!!
All thought watching this and then watching Dino King now that made me cry a few times. Speckles: The Tarbosaurus the film was released under the title Dino King: which you can easily watch right here on UA-cam for free.
Glad you reacted to this! One of my childhood favorites!
I always think that the carnotaurs are not the villain of the movie because they just did what they're suppose to do to survive. I think Kron is more of a villain
My favourite childhood movie ❤ thanks for reacting it
This was more of what I was expecting from the Lion King remake in terms of visuals. CGI characters over live-action backgrounds.
This was the film that kickstarted my lifelong love for dinosaurs overall and it’s always great to watch it now and then.
It's a underrated film I watched it when I was a kid loved it just shows how brutal it was during the time of the dinosaurs
To answer your question, they merged CG with live action plates. Most of the environments were filmed live, which was smart given the CG limitations at the time but was very expensive. Apparently it was a box office success so it paid off.
I love this movie. I'll never forget seeing the opening chunk as a long trailer from the start of the view of the egg nest all the way until the flying dino dropped the egg onto the island. it really made me curious. I also loved that it was CGI dinos in real backgrounds. at least most of the backgrounds were real. Locations they used included Florida, Australia, and I think Hawaii that I remember off the top of my head. There was probably more for the desert scenes.
The only problem I ever had with this movie was understanding Kron's motivation for how harsh he was to the herd. Yes, loss is expected on journeys like the one they took, and they can't be avoided. and sure, those few that fall will slow down predators that are following, but it will also draw the attention of other predators, and bigger ones, as proven by what happened when the Carnitors showed up by following the scent of the dead dinos. To me, Kron seemed almost.... eager to sacrifice part of the herd when there was no need.
Even Bruton at the start was more merciful by trying to tell Kron "There is a more protected spot, further down-" but Kron cut him off as if choosing to be not as safe might lighten the load. It's not like the older dinos in the back were slowing down the herd at all.
Other than that flaw I think its a great movie and I have a lot of fond memories of watching it when I was a kid.
I used to like this film as a kid, mainly cause dinosaurs were my passion back then
I remember this movie. It's been a while so, not too much of it. I also remember the teaser trailer they had for it on Disney DVDs or VHSs (I honestly forget which).
Underrated Gem.
I was hoping Tim would react to “Dinosaur”.
Man this takes me back
I spend a big chunk of my childhood scared the hell of dinosaurs, and this movie is one of three reasons why
The other two are
A national geographic documentary about tyrannosaurus
And the third is cartoon about dinosaurs with a blue cat
Happy Birthday to ALADAR Blessings and HUGS! 👑💜
The first trailer for this movie was the first minutes of the film,the whole sequence of the egg traveling with that grandious soundtrack, with no release to or anything, just the title,it wsd shown before the release of Disney's Tarzan
