Title: What's Your Favourite Dinosaur?
Post by: Old One Eye on April 08, 2017, 09:54:39 AM
Don't pretend you don't have one!

My favourite is the stegosaurus.  I like that there's still a lot unknown about its way of life.  I love that it has ostensibly useless things on its back and I love that its tail is potentially deadlier than its head.

They're kind of like cows from a long time ago.  I like cows.

So, what's your favourite and why?

PS:  Honourary mention goes to the pterodactyl.  I know its not a dinosaur but they're very cool. :)

Dilophosaurus. Ever since I saw Jurassic Park as a wee lad. Even after I learned that its neck frill and spitting ability were fictional. It's just really cool. (http://i.imgur.com/2bMR02B.gif)

Seventeen views and only two replies and one of those was a cop out! :P

@Dinomite:  I nominate the Iguanodon.  Not sure why, but when I look at your avatar and signature something just says "Iguana"...

As for the rest of you.  Commit to your dinosaur love and share!

All of them really. Well I am a huge dino lover I kind of hope to get into some paleontology someday. Anyways, I'm basic I really like the T-rex and raptors the most. Especially how they are depicted in the early Jurassic Park movies. I really like all dino's stegosaurus is awesome too.

Aw dude.  I didn't realise that the neck frill was a fiction.  I feel a little sad about that.  He always seemed like a bit of a dandy but now he's 'just' another dinosaur ... poor wee guy. :(

Yeah, I suppose you can't go wrong with the ol' t-rex.  I have my favourite t-rex (you might work out who she is by my avatar and signature...).  Raptors are pretty cool too but I'm a bit of a contrarian so I can't quite admit to liking them too much in public. :P

@Dinomite:  Do you mean Juggernaut from the X-Men or from Prototype?  Are either anything to do with dinosaurs!? :P

Aahhh!  I get you now.  I forgot you were an Evolution nut. :P

Yes.  Yes, he counts as far as I'm concerned.  He might not be a real dinosaur but he's a cool dinosaur.  It would churlish to discount him.  It'd be like hating on Pinocchio just because he's not a real boy. :)

BONUS THOUGHT:  A strategy game involving lots of Juggernauts would be pretty groovy!

Hey!  How did you see what goes on inside my brain!?  *Ups medication to quell paranoia...*

Have you seen this:

It's 8.5 feet long!!

I like all the Dinosaurs, but my favourites are definitely the Theropods/Raptors/Tyrannosaurids.

Apart from T-Rex, there's also Spinosaurus and Carnotaurus. Anything that is Dragon like.

The Stegosaurus is probably my favourite plant eater.

If time travel to the past was even possible and safe, I would love to see them all.

I quite like the carnotaurus too.  The pinky from the Doom games really remind me of it and that's my favourite baddy in Doom.  I just love the singular aspect of it - run straight at you and headbutt/munch your face off.  There's no misunderstanding the pinky!
