What's your favorite dinosaur?

Apathosaurus (Brontosaurus)

"Dr. Grant, Dr, Sattler, I hope you're up for a cold case, because judging by the placement of these bones it looks like we've got a murder, 65-million-years in the making. Someone better tell these dinosaurs that their whole crew is about to become... extinct."

YYYYYEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!

CSI: Jurassic Park, coming this Fall to CBS
 
Bully for Brontosaurus. :mallory:

It's actually pretty hard to choose. I've loved dinosaurs since I was a little kid-- probably the first thing I was ever interested in. Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Iguanodon, Ankylosaurus, T Rex, Allosaurus-- so exotic.
 
THE TERRIBLE THUNDER CHICKENS!:

aka Dilong Tyrannosaurs (the little guys) and Yutyrannus (the big guy). Tyrannosaurs with feathers. From Scientific American.

That is so wrong...even if it's right...and it probably is.

So my favorite dinosaur?

Harryhausen's

Just like the Moon was supposed to look like Bonestell's paintings...all craggy.

Reality sux
 
We watch a lot of Dinosaur Train in our house, so I have become quite fond of troodons.

Favorite Jurassic Park dinosaur would be velociraptor, though.

Holy shit, I'm not into Police Procedurals, but I'd be all over that show :guffaw:
 
Long Neck, aka Brontosaurus, aka Apatosaurus. I really loved this dinosaur as a kid, due in no small part to the movie Land Before Time. My neighbor and I played Dinoland in our backyards, where we created elaborate habitats for our plastic dinosaurs. The leader of the dinosaurs was always my red Brontosaurus, appropriately named Dino.

I feel the same way. My favorite is the T-Rex, but based upon the woefully outdated concepts showcased in this famous painting by Charles R. Knight...
