Looking Back at Disney's Dinosaur (2000)- Film Review

[@thelittleal1212]

I feel the movie is far too overhated. Personally, despite my nostalgic attachment, the story is pretty cliche most of the time, but it doesn’t mean it’s terrible. Outside the actual the story tho, it has some pretty great elements and a great level of effort. And it’s also impressively dark and graphic for a Disney movie for kids. Overall, i think it’s a over looked and underrated gem of Disney’s legacy

[@AbrasiousProductions]

I think my only issues with it as an adult are the bland/annoying characters and cliche'd plot, as for soundtrack, atmosphere and animation, it's pretty damn impressive, I also thought the carnotaurs were genuinely frightening antagonists, I'd probably rate it a 6/10 but I still heavily love the movie, I don't think I could ever dislike Dinosaur, it gave me so many wonderful memories💕

I'm glad you spent some time to mention the score by James Newton Howard. He is undoubtedly the most underrated and unappreciated mainstream film composer.

Loved and still love this movie! Can't wait for the accuracy review. Edit: I also want to point out that at 3:43, I believe the directors said they added lips over the beaks because I believe you can still see the beaks under the lips.

[@andrews_lego_tanks_and_more]

I loved this movie so much as a kid and still do. One of my favorite memories of this film isn't actually in the film but something that happened in a game. Back when the Isle was new and still in its early release some 8ish years ago I was playing and a huge group of herbivores was gathering to make a cross-map trip to where this huge lake was. The guy leading the trip was a shantungosaurus who did the speech Bruton did about their first crossing. To this day one of my most fond memories of this movie and while gaming.

[@jaykoops9502]

The meteorite destruction scene was honestly one of the most impressive destruction sequences of that time, especially in a Disney movie.

[@MinecraftWorld1954]

This was the movie to really get me interested in Dinosaurs, and especially Carnotaurus. I was nearly obsessed with Carnotaurus after watching this movie, to the point where it was, and still is, my favorite dinosaur, and tied with Titanoboa as my favorite prehistoric creature in general.

[@TheBenjaman]

I loved this movie as a kid. Rewatched it again today after discovering it on disney plus. after a couple decades of having not watched it and it being shelved in my mind. And man That opening sequence with the egg, the astroid impact the desert water scene and the carno battles all stuck with me throughout the years and wow was it almost an out of body experience to relive these moments that have been floating in my mind for so long again. And man is this movie beautiful. Remember being blown away by the visuals as a kid but i didnt expect them to hold up at all after all these years but they more then do.

[@hannibalsmyth6779]

I think the reason they call them just Carnotaurs is because they don’t want to explicitly say the animal is carnotaurus. Since the real animal was a lot smaller it definitely wouldn’t be the same species as in the movie Like the same reason in Walking with Monsters or Primeval use gorgonopsid for a 5m carnivore instead of explicitly calling them Gorgonops or Inostrancevia since there is not a lot of evidence proving these animals can grow 5m in length. However I suppose they would have called Carnotaur, Abelisaur instead if they didn’t want to say the exact species name or I might be overthinking it.

[@alphakraut]

Not only one of my favourite Disney movies but one of my favourite movies at all ❤ Sadly very underrated in public

[@LBTElectricDinoOnline]

Great and Pretty Nice Review of Dinosaur 2000 and I slightly agree with some of your points you’ve made on Dinosaur 2000 and this video is way better than Schaffrillas’s Disney movie Ranking and your Jurassic World videos in my opinion. I love Dinosaur 2000 and it’s one of my all time favorite Disney movies ever since The Lion King 1994 and Meet the Robinsons and my all time favorite dinosaur movies ever since The Land Before Time and The Dino King Movies (don’t hurt me), and I still enjoy it till this day and I remember having An Aladar Figure as well as the Carnotaur figure proving that I love the movie and ranked in my number one favorite Disney movies of all time and ranked it high on my tier list ranking proving that I love the movie. Great work analyzing the story, the animation, the characters, the dinosaurs and the soundtrack of Dinosaur 2000 and keep it up.

[@dinoman2135]

Thanks for doing Disney Dinosaur for the review. I can't wait to see the accurate review.

[@CJTheTokay]

The iguanodons themselves were like 5m tall the size of an irl rex. The small carno is about 7m tall and the big one some people say its like 10m-13m tall so yeah these dinos are too oversized but I love the movie and the Disney Carno portrayal is my favorite of all time albeit inaccurate.

[@AstralBirthVoid0]

I rmember watching this movie so much as a child and playing little games they made for the DVD. I spent a lot of times on them, and there was only 3 (or 4), a puzzle, a knowledge test and the best of all, the cave. You were in the cave of the end of the movie and had to find your friends, the exit and open it without meeting the carnotaurus. It was very rng based but the sheer tension when hoping to not find a carnotaurus at the next room or not make the whole exit fall on you was unmatched for me. God I miss the simpler times.

[@theangrysuchomimus5163]

I think the scene with the carno mourning its mate is also great. It shows the carnivores may be scary meat eaters, but they still have emotions. This nuanced scene is such a breath of fresh air because carnivorous dinosaurs are usually portrayed as mindless murder machines in media.

[@JurassicReptile]

0:23 underrated meme potential with that clip glad you're using it

[@ArtemisDalmasca]

I actually just watched this with my kids a few days ago ^^ Something I noticed with the Carnotaurus, that I wonder if you or anyone else did: One of them is quite a bit smaller than the other. I know sexual dimorphism is a thing, but the first long shot you see of the two in the desert shows that the other is ALOT smaller by far. Its also noticeable when they approach the cave before Bruton's death (The smaller chased Aladar inside). It actually got me to wonder if they're actually adult and juvenile rather than a mated pair. If so, it makes sense that the Juvie survived the cave collapse, and it also explains why it was so thrown by the response from the herd at its attack.

[@commodoreRumbleshanks]

They actually cut a really good scene from this film. Later on Neera is attacked by the raptor pack as shes trying to save the orphaned iguanodon before shes saved by Kron. Interesting to see that Neera had already decided to go against her brother by not leaving the babies behind but also added an interesting arc to Kron that, even he, was willing to make exceptions to his rule to save his family. Just added a nice extra dimension to him that is a shame got cut. You can actually find the rough animated draft on KZbin that was fully voice acted Also the carnotaur was retconned by a Disney theme park i believe? To be a fictional subspecies called Carnotaurus Floridiensis. Hence why its portrayed as so huge and different

My love for Dinosaurs, and Carnotaurus specifically as my favorite dinosaur, came from this movie. The Carnotaurus really looked like giant demons here, they always scared me, but they also gave me a fascination thay no other dinosaur ever gave me. Idk, the combo of short face, large head, spikes and horns really mixed with me. Learning that they weren't T-Rex sized monsters, but more like giant cheetas with horns, also made me love them even more because they had an identity beyond just "devil dinosaur monster." Also, the Meteor Scene is by far my second favorite in this movie and genuinely scared me as a kid. I think it was the first thing to give me fear of space XD

[@alphakraut]

[@faketarbo2041]

This movie is just so perfectly retrosaurus, the designs of each animal is so well made for that aesthetic, and they fit so well with the backgrounds they chose, also the way the cameras from that time made the footage look adds to that old timey feel, it’s just great, they did such a good job with this movie.

Thank you for reviewing this Red Raptor, this is my all time favorite Disney movie for a couple reasons. 1.) I love excellent the quality holds up since 2000. 2.) I really enjoy the cast as far as voices and dinosaurs chosen and the story. 3.) Carnotaurus was an awesome choice for the film instead of T-Rex. And lastly, I love how detailed and as realistic as they could get to make the dinosaurs look even if they are humanized, but thankfully not so much as the live action Disney animals we get now a days. I'll definitely have to rewatch this again at some point, well worth it if you haven't seen this before. Shame Disney has moved on from this film, it's way better than it's given credit for and I do appreciate the 100th anniversary of Disney included Aladar in the special. Also my main reason Animal Kingdom is better than the other parks for me, the dinosaur part including Aladar and parts of his story in the park. Sorry for going on, I really love this film. Great review and can't wait to see what's next Red Raptor. Hoping Prehistoric America will get reviews by you at some point good sir. Keep up your awesome content, stay safe and have a great day.

What can I say, this movie was my childhood and definitely how I and many others became interested in prehistoric content for the first time. As for the movie itself, it's good. Visuals were top tier for its time and the soundtrack is simply perfect. The plot is simple, it's basic but it has grit and some really stand out moments. The carnotaur's portrayal was iconic. Singlehandedly putting the species in the limelight and in the minds of the audience, like JP did for T-Rex, Raptors and Spinosaurus. I definitely have to agree and praise the movie for the roster of species it decided to show off. Wish we would see another movie of it's kind nowadays, with our technologycal and paleontological improvements. With some similar dinosaur characters and similar serious plot with some really effective desperate situations.

This film was nothing but a staple of my childhood. I'm not joking, I watched it non stop on VHS to the point that I remember the commercials and trailers that play before the film started all these years later and I know every cut, sound effect, visual and line of dialogue. I grew up being a dinosaur nut for as long as I could remember, and this was probably why, as I'm sure I saw this before seeing Jurassic Park and Walking with Dinosaurs. This did help make the Iguanodon my favourite dinosaur of all time. I won't hesitate and say it's one of my favourite films of all time, partly because of James Newton Howard's score, which is one of my top 5 of all time. It may not be entirely accurate, but this did help me fall in love with dinosaurs, which is more than enough for me.

[@joshuachristiansen4253]

This was the first Dino movie I instantly fell in love and literally watched the movie a lot personally the Carno was my favorite villain, but when I first watched it, I almost thought the bad guy was a T-rex, fun fact the velociraptor sounds came from the directors chihuahua growling and they used that for the raptors sound.

[@Alejandroigarabide]

It makes sense for Carnotaurus to be called something different that the modern name we humans give them, but I find it strange that the name the characters give them is so similar. They could have said "predators", or a brand new name like when LBT invented "sharptooth". To be honest, I'm a spanish speaker, so the version I first watched in theaters was dubbed in spanish. In that dub, both the modern name for the animal and the name given by the other dinosaurs are one and the same ("carnotauros").

[@Phillibetrus]

You should look up the original pitch for this movie before Disney bought it, the ending was much darker. Part of where the dinosaur species came from was Disney requiring that they used the Dinosaurs from their park ride. That is how we wound up with a TRex sized Carnotaurus, because the script originally had a TRex and they wanted to keep the imposing nature.

[@oliverking7227]

You should have a look at the Minecraft mod “prehistoric nature” it has over 800 prehistoric animals from the pre-cambrian all the way to the Jurassic at the moment the Jurassic is still being worked on so yea but they are going until the present day the creatures are as accurate as they can be within the restrictions of Minecraft and they will update animals and there models if new research comes out on them with noticeable differences

[@creakingskull7008]

My guess on the insane size of the Carnotaurus is that they wanted them to feel the same way the T. rex does in JP, you know, an unstoppable mosnter that you can only run away from, but since the characters are multi ton dinosaurs they had to make it insanely large to fit that role

[@brianlevine871]

Maybe it's just me, but I think the reason the characters called the Carnotaurus a 'Carnotaur' is to give it a timeless vibe. In a weird way, it provides a somewhat accurate understanding for the creature, while also making it a living threat for these dinosaurs and fitting with the vibe of the ancient world they live in. Plus it helps that it's the only dinosaur whose species is given a name, whereas "Land Before Time" for instance gave names various to various species (i.e Long-Neck, Three-Horn, Flyer).

[@jeffreygao3956]

Maybe one could refer to Carnotaurinae members as Carnotaurs but I typically don’t.

[@theangrysuchomimus5163]

I think it has something to do with how people often omit the "us" at the end of the name. Think of ankylosaur, brachiosaur or tyrannosaur.

I’ve seen this movie the most compared to other Disney movies. I loved this money since I was a kid and I still love it just the same. Only a couple of things have changed my opinion on the movie both in positive and negative ways but mostly positive. Like as a kid I never appreciated how amazing the score, the cinematography, the practical work, and how good the CGI was for the time. The choice to use the carno over the T. rex was such a smart choice cause they made the carno really scary having it look demonic with lots of spikes with that red coloring. Lots of great tense/chase sequence like the meteor shower is a great example.

People can say what they want about this movie but it is a fantastic watch. Maybe its biased nostalgia but I don't think so because out of every dinosaur movie I've watched none have made me feel like I've been taken back 65 million years like this one, thanks to the way they pulled off CG with real scenery. Also unpopular opinion but the Carno's were the main characters lol, they have the strongest on screen presence out of all the characters
