Favorite Dinosaur?

[Kory]

Mine's Ceolophysis (for now). Late Triassic dinosaur, I believe the earliest one known.

Big Pliasour. Maybe not technically a dinosaur?

Carl Everett would also have been an acceptable answer.

Let me be the first to say that velociraptors are gay. Deinonychus was where it was at.

That and the ankylosaurs and pachycephalosaurs.

Like Sarah Palin, I don't believe in dinosaurs.

Right here.

That show sucked, but it had possibly the darkest series finale in TV history.

it's just 'family matters' dinosaur style. i liked it, but then again, i was also 6 or somewhere around there when it first aired where i was. i don't think it was exactly inteded for kids, was it?

I liked it at first too, but not for very long.

Seriously, IIRC, the finale involved the family huddling together waiting for the asteroid to strike the earth and make them extinct.

EDIT: well, I was close:

The series finale of Dinosaurs concerns the irresponsible actions of the dinosaurs toward their environment, and the ensuing Ice Age which leads to their demise. The episode begins with the failure of a beetle swarm to show up and devour a form of creeper vine. It is shown that the Wesayso Corporation has constructed a wax fruit factory on the swampland that serves as the beetles' breeding grounds, causing the extinction of the species. Fearing a public relations fiasco more than any environmental threat, Wesayso quickly puts Earl in charge of an attempt to destroy the vines, which have grown out of control without the beetles to keep them in check. Earl proposes spraying the plant with defoliant, which works only too well; not only does the defoliant eradicate all the vines, but all other plant life on the planet as well. B.P. Richfield assumes that the creation of clouds will bring rain, allowing the plants to grow back, and so decides to create clouds by dropping bombs in the planet's volcanoes to cause eruptions and cloud cover. The dark clouds instead instigate global cooling, in the form of a gigantic cloudcover (simulating the effects of what the viewer would recognize as nuclear winter) that scientists estimate would take "tens of thousands of years" to dissipate; viewers are thus left in no doubt as to the final fate of the dinosaurs. The final scene of the series depicts a color-warped broadcast from newscaster Howard Handupme, eerily staring into the camera in a slowly freezing studio, and droning, "And, taking a look at the long-range forecast, continued snow, darkness, and extreme cold. This is Howard Handupme. Goodnight. (pause) Goodbye." The credits then roll over a shot of the Sinclairs' house, slowly disappearing beneath a snowdrift, while a melancholy string instrumental plays. The episode contains a clear, dark message of environmental responsibility and, while not overt in its portrayal of the extinction of the dinosaurs (their fate is only implied, not depicted), the episode was still a marked change from the series' normal humor. "Changing Nature" merited a special parental warning in TV Guide's listings the week it aired, cautioning that its subject matter might frighten or disturb younger viewers.

This is one of my favorite threads of all time. Just as long as no one here believes that humans actually co-existed with dinosaurs
