1980 - Dinosaur - Claymation

[@fandomcentralstation]

Was just searching for this! I used to watch it all the time at the Pacific Science Center when I was a kid! Good memories

[@jaypay8954]

As a kid I watched this constantly as I was obsessed by dinosaurs I still am. This was always hilarious to me in the 90s it still makes me laugh!

[@dfmh1]

Finally! After so many long years, I finally see this for the first time since I was a small child. The bomb of nostalgia dropped on my head was explosive and enjoyable.

[@mrdgenerate]

This tripped me out so hard as a kid

[@inspectorsteve2287]

Same here. Do you remember what this was on? Like was it just a 15 min vhs tape or on TV.

[@JoystickConductor]

We had it recorded on the beta max. So dope to see this again

[@skinwalkerapologist3075]

[@inspectorsteve2287]

[@LEDsMoshPit]

[@patriciamurphy6559]

[@andrewshiley9021]

I saw this film at the Seattle museum when I was young!

[@jacobchang7165]

YOU MEAN PACIFIC SCIENE CENTER?! The first time I saw it was in the 1996-1997 school year. That is when I first saw the exhibit DINOSAURS! A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME. But until the end of 1999, the said exhibit was in Building 3 instead of Building 1. I saw it at Building 1 in the beginning of 2000. The 1990-1999 version of this exhibit had seven animatronic dinosaurs. That is, including Apatosaurus, Stegosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Triceratops, T.Rex, Pteranodon, and Pnuemoferrosaurus. The 2000-present version has eleven animatronic dinosaurs. That is, including Allosaurus, Apatosaurus, Stegosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Deinonychus/Tenontosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Triceratops, T.Rex, Pteranodon, and Pnuemoferrosaurus.

I remember the Dinosaur section of the Ulster Museum used to have this playing on a loop when I was a kid, still had it in the 90s when I was doing schools Work Experience there when I was a kid and probably right up until 2006 when the place got completely refurbished. Glad I found it again.

[@nicholaswilliams4598]

the memories are flooding back

[@gaahlmccartney]

That looks like Margaret’s mother

[@Grimey-P]

Herb and Rex were the characters from the claymation Christmas special but in suits!

[@jacobchang7165]

Rex is a Tyrannosaurus Rex AND Herb is a Styracosaurus.

[@moatguy4471]

5:40 On Triceratops grave it says "LAWS OF OLD BC. GONE TO MD."

[@Sonicphantom47]

i watched this back in first grade!!!

[@Benrude]

I'm about 99% sure this is the thing I saw when I was a kid. I have a vague memory of a red T-Rex snatching a pterodactyl out of the sky. Well, this must be it. I'm not sure if I saw preschool in some museum, but yeah, this must be it. I only saw once so it's very vague. Thanks for uploading regardless!

[@Sandlot1992]

2:22 This one kid sounded like Red Foxx or something!

[@djdinomighty5277]

One of the kids sound like Nelson from the simpsons. Overall I love this claymation

[@Joebangles34]

3:51 always made me laugh 😹

[@frankjager2420]

Mustve been 87-88 since Ive last seen this

[@gorenoisebulldozer140]

MPM homies stand up

[@jacobchang7165]

At 8:05-8:08 Uh, no. That title actually belongs to Ultrasaurus. The shoulder blade fossil was Ultrasaurus. And it was found in New Mexico. Both of these dinosaurs were not the largest dinosaur. I get it. But the "fossilized shoulder blade" (mentioned by Phillip), it belongs to Ultrasaurus, not Supersaurus. (NOTE: I mean, "Phillip is wrong". The "shoulder blade fossil" fact belongs to Ultrasaurus.)

[@Caine7ify]

12:03, Uh.... uh oh.

[@toonrex2806]

Why is that blue sauropod eating the egg of another sauropod?

[@majingojira]

The same reason cows and deer devour small birds -- to get nutrients deficient in their normal diet. A lot of herbivores do that.

[@christianparrish3292]

Yeah, most of this was trolling on Margaret's mom.

[@houston-james8967]

The kid that talking sounds like Bart .

[@jacobchang7165]

That is Phillip.

[@malcolmmonster7987]

like apatosaurus was 60 feet tall

[@malcolmmonster7987]

dinosaurs were vicious meat eaters herbivore dinosaurs onmivore dinosaurs

[@jacobchang7165]

In the "lunch" scene, when Herb the Styracosaurus was eating fruits and vegetables, Rex the T.Rex (since he is a carnivore or "meat eating dinosaur"), I got to the part where Phillip narrated the line, "And sometimes they ate other dinosaurs". T.Rex could have chosen one of the other meat choices that were on the scene before Herb the Styracosaurus got to eating fruits and vegetables. That is, including spaghetti and meatballs, turkey, hamburger and French fries, hot dog and French fries, OR steak and potatoes. Because meatballs, whole turkey, hamburger, hot dogs, and steak are most definitely meat. He (for a few seconds) debated with one of those six options. But he chose to eat Herb instead. That is, but to be fair, none of these food items (spaghetti and meatballs, turkey, hamburger and French fries, hot dog and French fries, AND steak and potatoes) were around in the age of dinosaurs. That did not exist until the time of humans. These are all human food. So it would have made sense that T.Rex would eat Herb. T.Rex indeed ate other dinosaurs.
