Just a poll on your favorite (or non-favorite) Sharptooth in the LBT Series

My favorite's definitely the original.

Chomper of course! He's the only nice one.

Chomper, of course! He's nice with the leaf-eaters.

I also like Chomper. He's cute. I just prefer the original sharptooth because he was the scariest, motivated by vengeance rather than just hunger.

Chomper reminds me of this lioness from the program Heart of a Lioness.

EDIT: Whoops, doublepost.

The Liopleurodon. As menacing and threatening as the original sharptooth, even though he was featured in a sequel. That little accomplishment puts him on top.

I don't know... you've got to like Chomper because he's so 'nice', but the original sharptooth in LBT 1 was a whole lot more 'authentic', so I don't know.... Do I go with the rosey or the authentic...?

As a whole, though, I would have to say Chomper.

I think the original is the best

Mine's the Liopleurodon.

It doesn't make too much sense to ask for the favorite of a species including characters so totally differently presented as Chomper or the original movies Sharptooth. People would favor Chomper for very different reasons than they might favor the original or one of the other sharpteeth who are presented as mostly anonymous villains by natures design. If it comes to impressive, intimidating "villains" the original sharptooth would probably be number 1, with LBT 9's Liopleurodon in hot pursuit. Chomper's parents, the LBT 5 sharptooth (I think that one was supposed to be a Giganotosaurus rather than an Allosaurus), the LBT 6 sharpteeth (there we got an Allosaur) and the raptors too could qualify as somewhat impressive, but all of them were subjected to slapstick (so was the LBT 9 sharptooth, but he retained more of his "dignity" through it). The sharpteeth of LBT 10, 8, 11, and 12 were almost offensively harmless dinosaur kid toys.

Why not?

I voted for the wrong one, but the one I want to vote for (the golden-brown Allosaurus from LBT 6) isn't on the list.

Why not?

Who is your favorite Chinese in the world and who is your favorite American? Who is your favorite black person and who is your favorite Muslim or Jew?
Races, Nationalities, Skincolors, Religions all these consider a HUGE variety of totally different people not linked in any way to each other but by those superficial characteristics most of which are of no significance to the nature of the person in question. I do admit that in case of sharpteeth the problem is not as strong as most of those we see in LBT follow a certain basic pattern.
But Chomper is very different. Those who label Chomper their favorite sharptooth do so because he is so very nice, those who label the original movies or any other sharptooth as such probably do so because they are so scary or impressive. What are we really asking for when asking for the "favorite" sharptooth?

I'm sorry, but I still don't understand what you mean or where you are getting at.

Here's a clear, logical way to answer the question: If you could have your choice to meet any of the above sharptooths, which would it be? Hmm? *runs off to vote for Chomper*

It would depend on what kind of weapon I had with me.

I think the Allosaurus in LBT 6 was up to that level as well. Falling down a cliff didn't kill it. Gotta give it a pat on the back for that.

I gotta say I'm kinda conflicted, I like Chomper simply becuase he;s nice, but I have to admit, the original sharptooth was quite possibliy the best simply becuase he was a really hardcore character even for a kids movie...so you can see my problem...

I did consider that one, but it kinda gets brought down by the part where it got stuck in a tree while chasing a pair of toddlers.
