Wow. :blink: That's humongous.

What's going on in the image, exactly? (If you don't mind me asking.)

The Ceratosaurus's expression is great, and I also really like the dromaeosaur. The alimon (that's what it is, isn't it?) seems a bit chromatically overdressed compared to the other two (not that I don't appreciate brightly colored dinosaurs), but I love the way you drew the forefeet; they're by far my favorite part (of the alimon, anyway).

I just saw this movie last night with my brother, and I LOVED it! I actually thought it was the best in the series. (I hate giving away spoilers, but I might just slip here, so don't keep reading this if you don't want to know too much about the movie.) Not only did I lose count of how many times I cracked up during the film (though not at the more risquÈ jokes; I really don't care for that kind of humor), but the dinosaurs were AWESOME. The mother T. rex was, in my opinion, the coolest animated tyrannosaur since Sharptooth (I actually had chills in the scene where she first makes her entrance). And the apparent anachronism of Pleistocene non-avian dinosaurs didn't bother me in the slightest. The series does correctly establish that dinosaurs were extinct before the time of the mammoth and the mastodon; ( ) this movie simply utilizes the loophole of dinosaurs surviving isolated from the rest of the world (the first instance I've seen of a "lost world" set in prehistoric times ).

By the way, WeirdRaptor, from what I have seen of your posts, your opinions and outlooks on most subjects are often almost polarically different from mine. So I don't know if you would have the same appreciation for this movie as I do, assuming you haven't seen it yet. However, I do recall that you have expressed interest in seeing a dinosaur movie in which the carnivores are portrayed as something other than mindless, evil, and/or bumbling "bad guys" (an opinion I can definitely agree with ). If you have not seen this movie yet, I would recommend that you do so, for the reason that the dinosaurs in this film break the mold in the exact way that you describe (intelligent, even sensitive carnivores, and decidedly non-placid herbivores). I may regret saying this, seeing as you may dislike the movie anyway, but I just thought I'd mention it.

Littlefoot looking towards the Sharptooth "I think we're gonna need a bigger rock"

We should have heard that in LBT X when the gang and Shorty were using pebbles to assault those oafish sharpteeth in the "climax."

Happy star day, Noname!

I had hoped to start a personal tradition of posting one of these emoticons for every candle on the cake of the person to whom I am wishing a happy star day, but apparently the board doesn't allow more than about fifteen emoticons per post. Oh well. Guess I'll have to settle for Plan B:

I was relentlessly teased and hassled throughout my elementary and middle school years, but I never dared raise a fist against my tormentors for fear of getting in trouble. I wish I'd been sooner acquainted with the works of insult masters Groucho Marx and Moe Howard; maybe then I would've been able to devise snappy comebacks to those overstuffed baboons (sorry for being unfair to the real baboons ).

I don't play sports ever because I'm no darn good at them. (I have horrible stamina, and reflexively flinch whenever I see a ball coming at me.)

Let it snow! I live in northern Minnesota, where the former is a fact of life during the winter, but I can't stand extreme heat, especially when it keeps me from sleeping.

Would you rather have a medium-sized T. rex or a dozen small Velociraptors as a bodyguard in the Cretaceous period?

'Fraid it wasn't Ducky who said it (Nope nope nope! ), and you didn't mention what movie it was from or who it was said to (as per the rules). Glad to see someone showing interest in the game, though.

If it helps, Ducky was the one the line was spoken to.

Triceratops has been added to the list of dinosaurs (which already includes Apatosaurus and Saurolophus) known to possess distendable, snakelike jaws; possibly an adaptation for ingesting large quantities of food, or maybe just for yelling real loud.
