The MANY Interpretations of T.rex! (Part 1: Movies & Shows)

[@rhedosaurus2251]

I have to make a major correction: The black and white dinosaur in the thumbnail and the video is *NOT* a T. rex, but an Allosaurus. The T. rex in The Lost World 1925 is noticably larger then the Allosaurus and has a larger head that looks like a triangle with rounded corners when seen from above while the Allosaurus is smaller and has an oval shaped head that's half as big. T. rex was the one that killed the Agathumus and later a Pteranodon. And you see at least another one, possibly two, eating a sauropod carcass after the volcano. eruption.

[@thehulkster17smash34]

[@joshuacollins9316]

No.

[@rhedosaurus2251]

@@joshuacollins9316 Yes, even the movie itself says that the shorter snouted theropods are Allosaurs.

[@danielmalinen6337]

It has become a recurring cliché that all Lost World theropods are misclassified as Tyrannosaurus because it is more popular and recognizable than Allosaurus or Megalosaurus. As far as I understand, the only adaptation of Lost World is a cheap b-movie where a scientist hatches an ordinary lizard from an egg and identifies it as a T. rex.

[@rhedosaurus2251]

He should also include Megatron from Beast Wars. Both the first version and the Transmetal beast modes. Transmetal Meatron's T. rex ironically looks more accurate by today's standards than his original form.

[@GeteMachine]

Also missing the T. rex used in the Arthur Episodes: Buster's Dino Dilemma, and "The Sue-Ellen and Brainasaurus" (Same model) and the episode with the Library Music video.

[@sidneysimons6475]

Maybe I missed it, but One-Eye from "Speckles the Tarbosaurus". Basically looks like what T.rex could have looked like if they didn't replace it with Carnotaurus in Disney's Dinosaur.

[@WingedFish66]

Garfield and Friends had a T. Rex that hilariously took over the world by painting himself pink and hypnotizing people on his TV show

[@josesosa3337]

Sounds like a Barney joke.

[@juliancaraveo5700]

21:18 The Brachiosaurus figure : Hey

[@JurassicReptile]

I think people don't give retro dinosaurs enough credit, the T. Rex in the original King Kong shows incredible agility and speed when dodging Kong's attacks. Goes to show that not all depictions of the time were slow and dim.

[@jointcerulean3350]

It was also The inspiration For the gorosaurus From Godzilla

[@GeteMachine]

The T. rex in the first Land Before Time, must have had superpowers, because it was jumping like 50 feet in the air, to land on Littlefoot's mother to bite into her, and survived being thrown off a cliff like nothing. Retro dinosaurs were something else.

[@Jestalnaker94000]

In Dr. Strange: Multiverse of Madness, that scene with the dinosaurs is an easter egg for the Savage Land; a secret area in Antarctica that was created by the Beyonders (an ancient and ultra-powerful alien race) within the Marvel Universe, where all kinds of prehistoric life live in order to conserve them and it is home of the superhero, Kevin Plunder aka Ka-Zar as well as Devil Dinosaur, who is also a T-Rex. It appears in many Marvel media, but especially Ultimate Spider-Man, since Ka-Zar appears often. 😁

[@gabrieljvelez-perez9275]

I’ve noticed that Chomper’s parents are very similar to both Buck & Doe Rex from The Lost World Jurassic Park. Buck was green with yellow stripes while Doe was light tan with darker brown stripes as well as two slightly curved stripes on her cheeks. They’re both my personal favorite T-Rexes in the entire Jurassic Park franchise.

[@jurassicswine]

Congrats on 10k! And I know it probably doesn’t have nearly enough media appearances to warrant a video, but I’d love it if my favorite dinosaur Alamosaurus could get an episode ;)

[@Azureblue25]

I would want a many interpretations video for Alamosaurus as well, although I think it would be better if he made a many interpretations video that lumps together all of the largest Titanosaurs instead of focusing on one species within the family and that would probably be enough to warrant a video dedicated to them, because they haven’t appeared in as much pop culture as Brontosaurus/Apatosaurus & Brachiosaurus, after all they’re easily the most well known Sauropods.

[@TheSolDrake]

Fun fact about the Fantasia T.rex, the animators actually wanted to make it tail drag, but then realized it would be far too slow to actually catch anything. So, they raised that tail and changed the posture to make it look and move faster, which means the animators were actually ahead of the paleontologists at the time!

[@juliancaraveo5700]

23:08 I can't remember where I heard this but apparently Barney is a Daspletosaurus.

[@dudemcduder1628]

Honestly the size seems not too bad

[@cade_sfm5117]

SpongeBob SquarePants features a Tyrannosaurus Rex in the Episode 'Ugh'. It was animated in a sort of Stop Motion style with a full 3D model as well as a hand puppet that was used when it was biting at Patchy. I thought it was nice that the show did a throw back to old Dino flicks being done in Stop Motion.

[@brianlevine871]

There are just so many versions of T. rex I love that I can't list them all, so I'll just bring up a few movie/tv variations not mentioned in the video: "Beast Wars" Megatron Heart from "You are Umasou/Heart and Yummy" Roy Hess from Jim Henson's "Dinosaurs" The ones from "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" (where they're called Shivets) Devil from "Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur" The one from the Ringo Starr film "Caveman"

T. REX BABY!!!!! It was definitely worth the wait

[@CaptainCretaceous91]

[@CKprimeval07]

Some Disney animated series that T-rex appeared in are The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, and The Legend of Tarzan. Also about the movie 65, what's the point in setting your film up in a specific time period (65 million years ago) and include creatures that didn't live during that time (Fasolasuchus). I know that shouldn't be a criticism in most movies on dinosaurs, but I couldn't help it with this one.

[@bobcat24]

Why?

[@tyrannotherium7873]

T. Rex back of the Cretaceous is actually pretty accurate. It doesn’t have the Jurassic Park eyebrow crests like we see in the film and it’s also not shrink wrapped.

[@BLUE-REX4934]

Congrats on 10k subs the Rex video is definitely a worthy way to celebrate this great accomplishment

[@petalwhispers]

I think LBT's Sharptooth/Rex sounds are the most iconic in media, yes more so then the Jurassic franchise

[@LethalSaliva]

"Zoboomafoo" had a dino episode that shows a computer-animated t-rex. The Kratt brothers also go fossil hunting in said episode and find a tooth. They go to the museum and match it to the teeth of the T-rex skeleton.

[@GeteMachine]

Something I noticed with Land Before Time. The T. rexes, in the earlier movies (1,2 and 5) walk in a more tripod outdated posture generally but in the later movies, if its not just me, the theropods along with T. rex seem to walk more parallel to the ground, (correctly) if not semi-correctly more generally. So even TLBT movies made small changes so so slightly to their T. rexes over time, with the times. Now it could be coincidence at times, but the difference is noticeable compared to the first movie.

[@hunterglaspell]

It’s interesting how lips are present on most pre renaissance and Jurassic park depictions of theropod dinosaurs. Crazy how popular media can influence scientific accuracy in the following dinosaur docs.

Honestly was kinda hoping you'd skim across Dino King, aka: Speckles the Tarbosaurus, that features a t. rex as the antagonist. That whole story seems to me like it was made from the same directors and in the same style as "I Am T. Rex", though the 1st movie is definitely a little more "realistic" than its sequel movie, but all in all the same vibe. 👍

THANK YOU so much for mentioning the creative liberties with the Fantasia rex and the rexes in Primal. Im honestly tired of people trying to make them into other things like allosaurus, daspletosaurus or ceratosaurus just cause its more "accurate" with their looks. Well, these were never meant to be accurate, but they were meant to be T rexes. People need to stop being so hyper critical in making everything "accurate". The Alpha rexes look cool despite the fact they "should be" ceratos due to the horns.

[@stare4539]

[@BrokeProductions]

I think the big issue with the 65 rexes is they were in the wrong movie. I think if you had a hard R schlocky horror film with two slasher style Rexes running around massacring survivors of a crashed space ship then the more edgy designs would have been fine, but putting them in what was trying to be a self serious dramatic pg13 drama/horror was a major misstep
