@I__HATE_SOCCER If it was a lie, why does he close off his Twitter and not just make a lasting statement people can refer to showing they’re wrong??
It’s almost like he’s guilty and regrets it?
English
Genuinely kind of wild how people just flat out lied with what he said about minority voice acting roles and they’re are still running with that to this day.

@TM9380 i was shocked to learn recently that this thing is a weirdly big Microraptorine
English
The 2 meter Zhenyuanlong was a dromaeosaur, aka a raptor. The beautifully preserved fossil includes the feathers, including the wings. Fun fact: this animal has some of the shortest arms of any raptor!

@KeroroNyuziren @DeltyThe73rd Kamen Rider does not own the jump side kick.
English
@Idangalfarisi @CBMshots ermmmm W’s rider kick doesn’t look anything like that
English
@Relentiless @disrupthehuman a Triceratops looks completely different from a Velociraptor and they’re both still dinosaurs. and birds aren’t even that far down the family tree from Velociraptor
English
@disrupthehuman How can birds be dinosaurs? They look entirely different.
English
recently learned there's this group of people who are Really Mad at the idea that birds are dinosaurs.
English
Netflix's The Dinosaurs be like "The conflict between crocs and dinosaurs ended once earth entered the Jurassic"
Meanwhile 200 million years later.
English
@Mahajangasuchus @raftingzalmoxes also the fact that literally 2 segments later we see Hatzegopteryx, the biggest and most horrifying Pterosaur ever, probably should’ve clued them in that the show wasn’t communicating that birds outcompeted Pterosaurs
English
@raftingzalmoxes Reddit users: Oh noes! The flock of Longipteryx defends their nests from Guidraco! That means the documentary is pushing the outdated "birds outcompeted pterosaurs" rhetoric!!! (Even though nothing even suggests that)
English
Despite still talking about interspecies competition and often demonstrating it through creature fights, #TheDinosaurs is never really 'seriously' bent upon something like the 'dynasties rhetoric' like #LifeOnOurPlanet , and it does not attach a lot of symbolism to its sequences.
English
@TFHypeGuy but hypeguy, all these animals come from the Cretaceous!
English
@MissStixy @netflix i get the feeling you may not be qualified to speak on Pterosaur flight ability
English
@netflix Highly doubt these enormous flying dinosaurs landed to hunt - they'd never get up in the air again. Probably cliff dwellers & took prey on the wing.
English
@RickRaptor105 @kingslim445 tbf Ballad of Big Al did that too during the Battle of the Salt Plains sequence
English
@kingslim445 The opening scene is a Pachycephalosaurus making its way through a dinosaur herd with the kind of free-moving dynamic camera you'd see in something like the Jurassic World raptor motorcycle scene and not in something that'd try to emulate a nature documentary
English
I'm only one episode into The Dinosaurs, but it's interesting to compare this with PP and WWD because despite the narration, this is NOT a documentary.
This is a cinematic drama with impossible camera movements, theatrical lighting and staged encounters.
YMMV if you want that.

@MbvBaryonix @GeeseHerald ermmmm i’m pretty sure they were based on A. jimmadseni
English
@GeeseHerald Yup, they used fucking Al, Al fragillis even!

@diego64_l @Tomozaurus @Destroyer397 “i gotta find a way to stop these long necked freaks from eating me”
English
@Tomozaurus @Destroyer397 Whats the evolutionary necesity of making a tree so damm big
English
I decided not to do a full new reconstruction at this time, but here is a quick and crude size comparison of the new specimens to an adult Brachiosaurus and Diplodocus hallorum for some perspective.
Tom Parker@Tomozaurus
So a recent paper has confirmed that Araucaria delevoryasii (described from vegetation, seed & pollen cones) and Agathoxylon hoodii (petrified logs) from the Morrison Formation are the same plant. Here is my reconstruction done for Prehistoric Kingdom. Brief thread to follow.
English
If you saw the Mamenchisaurus in Netflix's #TheDinosaurs and thought "Wow that thing's neck is ridiculous" then I promise you it's even more ridiculous when you see its proportions in full view.
It's 60% neck. We have most of its bones too so it really just looks like that.
English
@Tomozaurus @Juanyudocus are you telling me this tree is so tall that a full grown Brachiosaurus couldn’t even reach its bottom leaves?? Jesus
English
@phantom_threadz if it helps there are also scenes of herbivores killing carnivores for trying to eat them
English
I wanna watch the dinosaurs show, but I don’t like seeing the carnivores eat the herbivores. ☹️
English
@AshleyPalaeo man i am NEVER going to take modern media portrayals of Azdarchids for granted
English
was reminiscing about March of the Dinosaurs, and was confronted by the creepy bipedal no-hands azhdarchids
English
@nice_two can i say that this take is actually rooted in racism because it enforces the view that scientists can only be old white guys and completely ignores and invalidates the work of the many non-white paleontologists out there or is that too woke?
English
I keep telling yall white people invented Dinosaurs.
Them bitches not real. Never been🤷🏾♂️

I’ve been trying to get into that Dinosaur doc on Netflix and my brain just can’t wrap my head around the timing. What you mean it rained for a million years? What you mean the first dinosaur was the size of a pigeon for millions of years?
English
@nice_two @urban_elegance hot take: if you claim to be fascinated by these animals while believing something so disrespectful to the people who dedicate their lives to studying them, you might be full of shit
English
@urban_elegance !!!! And keep in mind, I’m still fascinated with Dinosaurs as a whole…. Just don’t believe they really existed
English
@TM9380 “There’s no way they could know this”
“Dinosaurs are a cover for dragons”
“Those are actually the bones of giant humans”

The Dinosaurs releasing on Netflix is a double edged sword. On one hand it’s a solid intro to dinosaurs available to a wide audience. On the other, having such a wide audience has really brought out all the brain dead mouth breathers who can’t function without AI or conspiracies
