The Dinosaur Movie Iceberg

Dinosaurs have had a rich history within the film industry, brought to life on the big screen with the use of an array of methods and featuring in many different genres. Today, I want to explore some of those titles with an iceberg chart that I found a while ago called The Dinosaur Movie Iceberg.

I was maybe eight years old when I saw 'Valley of Gwangi' at a special presentation at the local zoo, which also included a short talk by Robert Bakker (I still have the Ornithomimus he drew for me). I didn't remember the title of the movie so years later I fondly remembered it but couldn't find it, until one day at a flea market I came across an old VHS tape that claimed to be a dinosaur western. I was thrilled. I figured this had to be it. It was 'The Beast of Hollow Mountain'.

I knoww not to mention the straight to dvd film that movie is honestly an underrated gem in my opinion also fun fact the effects of the movie was done by Framestore the company who previously worked on walking with dinosaurs and the score of the movie was done by Trevor Jones the same guy who did the score for the Dark Crystal and Labyrinth

[@sovelissfiremane]

Shin Godzilla is a beautiful and terrifying movie. The pain and suffering you can see in Shin's eyes is haunting. He goes through millions of years worth of evolution in such a short span of time and all he can really do is scream and protect himself from people who don't understand what's going on. Also, Bob Peterson (the original director and author of The Good Dinosaur) is actually the father of a friend of mine from elementary school. Mr. Peterson is a lovely person and he and I still talk occasionally. He's helped write, direct and do voicework for quite a few Pixar films including Finding Nemo where he played Mr Ray and Monsters Inc in which he appeared as Roz the slug lady. He also portrayed Dug in UP :)

You're basically spot on with the godzilla continuity. The only major stand outs are godzilla against mechagodzilla and its sequel which are technically apart of a oversized continuity that involves a bunch of different films that exist just to explain how humanity has anti monster weapons before the second Godzilla appears 50 years after the original. The other is the Anime trilogy which includes a book series that has monster appears and destroy humanity thousands of years before the movie series proper

"Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend" was one of my favorite films as a very small child in the late-80's. I grew up loving dinosaurs, so I was such a purist about how they were depicted and I have never seen most of these films. The ones I have seen were mostly fine. I really wish a dinosaur or prehistoric animal film could be made that was true to the organisms themselves, and not just a movie genre. Oh wait, there was one: the first Jurassic Park movie. Fun Tidbit: It's heavily implied in the movie "Dinosaur" that the place they end up at the end is "The Lost World (1925), which further indicates that all them lovable dinos won't perish with the rest of the planet, because no matter how whimsical you make your prehistoric world, that rock is still eventually wiping everything out.

Something about Gorgo that I think is worth noting is that both of the monsters survive the movie, which is *extremely* rare in solo giant monster movies. The only other instances I know of a monster surviving a solo film, much less a female monster, are the original Mothra and the 1984 Godzilla film. I actually had Journey To The Beginning of Time when I was a kid. Needless to say, I was fooled by that exact boxart. It's some trash.

[@zakkmylde1712]

Godzilla survives most movies and a few of the villain monsters even survive for multiple movies.

[@melvinshine9841]

@@zakkmylde1712 I said "solo" so I'm talking about monster movies that only have a single individual monster or single species of monster. In those movies, they die the vast, vast majority of the time, especially if they're female with offspring or are capable of reproducing in some way. Even if we're talking about Godzilla solo films, he dies in the 1954 original, survives in the '84 film, dies in the dumpster fire '98 film, and gets frozen or whatever the hell in Shin Godzilla.

[@nickdriscoll6131]

Gappa survives in his movie. Probably inspired by Gorgo. I suppose technically Daimajin survives his movies, too. But you’re right, very rare.

Journey to the Beginning of Time is NOT trash, it is a fantastic showcase of puppetry and stop motion, the amount of work put into it is exceptional, especially the seamless splicing of the footage with the puppets the main characters (The scene with the Tracodon in the water comes to mind). Karel Zeman was an excellent visionary.

When it comes to Godzilla I feel I can lend my knowledge after all I carry the franchise 😏 The Showa series are kinda cohesive as certain movies are sequels to each other while others are stand alones The Heisei era is the most linear as each movie is a direct sequel of the other ending with with Godzilla vs Destoroyah which was supposed to be the end of the entire franchise then 1998 happened and Japan refused to let that be the end of the series so we got the millennium era The millennium era is my favorite because those movies are all stand alones with exception of two called Godzilla X Mechagodzilla and Tokyo SOS bring it's sequel. I like the millennium era alot because each film from this era is technically a sequel to 1954 telling a different scenario regarding the appearance of a second Godzilla

The Heisei Gamera films are quite watching as well, getting increasingly weird and dark with each installment clearly incorporating some influence from that OTHER Japanese science-fiction cash cow franchise of the 1990's namely "Neon Genesis Evangelion". With Gamera's new adversaries Legion and Iris bearing strong resemblances to many of the weirder angels from NGE.

Sounds like someone just doesn't appreciate the absolute masterpiece that is Velocipastor, which should more than explain it's spot on the iceberg. In all seriousness, yeah that's likely the case.

On Godzilla he actually was or still is a dinosaur? Just severly mutated. He was called a Godzillasaurus (original ik lol) and was HUGE for a regular theropod, if im not mistaken his regular dinosaur form was already as big as a 5 story building and then being basked in radiation made him even bigger (apparently his species has a incredible genome set which allows the radiation to become a power source for him) and although now he's considered "a prehistoric entity" in the main films , my headcannon will always be that he's a dinosaur who's species was able to absorb the radioactive energy of prehistoric earth

The Rex in Dinosaur Island is very clearly the same animatronic used in Carnosaur. Roger Corman produced both and he knew how to stretch a dollar.

[@Tsotha]

Roger Corman also recycled the spaceship exterior footage from "Battle Beyond the Stars" for several other science-fiction films, most famously an "Alien" ripoff titled either "Forbidden World" or "Mutant" depending on which edition you watch. Which also re-uses the interior sets from "Galaxy of Terror", a rather demented film that can best be described as "Forbidden Planet" meets "Alien" on several hits of blotter acid.

Important thing to add about Gorgo: it was directed by Eugène Lourié (A french director of Russian descent) who also directed Beast from 20'000 fathoms a decade prior, a movie that would directly inspire Godzilla. So Gorgo is not only a response to Godzilla, it's a way to bring it all full circle.

[@Tsotha]

He also directed "The Giant Behemoth", a British film following a similar storyline as "Beast from 20,000 Fathoms" whose Rhedosaurus analogue is clearly inspired by popular images of the Loch Ness Monster. The stop motion effects in that one were done by Willis O'Brien of "King Kong" fame.

A Journey To the Beginning of Time is a really interesting film and a cool experience. It's a very slow, relaxed sort of film that slowly becomes more existential the further the children go back. Wandering around a world where the only living things are plants is actually a pretty harrowing. I've always vastly preferred films similar to that (viewing Dinosaurs/Pre-Historic creatures in their natural habitat and time) over the constant resurrection/discovery of Dinosaurs in the modern day.

OMG, Adventures in Dinosaur City!! That was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I wore that VHS out. Thanks for reminding me of it, Diego!

[@fhetty]

"Tyrannosaurus Wrecks" 😂🤣😆That has got to be one of the most AWESOME titles I've ever seen!

[@Fede_99]

One of the iceberg videos I enjoyed the most. Hope that someone will make a similar one about dinosaur TV series and documentaries so you can make another cool iceberg video about it like this.

[@rheahorvath9274]

Hey! Thanks for feeding me with the dino stuffs!! Love it!!!🦖 Edit: pretty dam good run down!! More of them out there than I dreamed! 😲😄

[@red_crayon9771]

I love these type of iceberg videos when the narrator details each entry instead of just mentioning the entry and moving on without an explanation

[@ratpatterson8953]

Im not really a dinosaur fan but youtube keeps recommending me this channel and whenever i watch i enjoy it so

[@tipitossj]

AFTER 20 YEARS!!! i couldt for my life, remember the name of "we are back" OMG you brought back so many memories!!!

[@ChaoticNakka]

THANK YOU! For the longest time I was trying to remember the title of Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend and this video popped up at the right time. Really looking at all of these, I'm amazed how many of them I watched, even the super old ones. I never grew up from being a dinosaur kid, I guess lol

[@Od_Ka]

Hell yeah Really looking forward to the Winter of Eden video

[@ChristiansPlaymo-Ecke]

Thankyou for this mention of Journey to the Beginning of Time ... Cause the Moment I saw the dinosaurs, especially the Styracosaurus there, I directly thought "this is Burians Artwork in film!" and you just confirmed it.

[@chubibi06]

Thank you and your friend for working so hard on this video :) And please take the time to rest properly, we can wait for Winter in Eden ; i do await this video, but your health comes first

[@maniacalmatt917]

No The Lost World 2001? That's literally my favorite dinosaur movie and nobody ever talks about it

[@jeremysmith4620]

When you said "also known as Raptor Ranch," I immediately thought of Ram Ranch, so naturally it follows that my next immediate thought was "Raptor Ram Ranch," the crossover the world needs right now. 18 naked cowboys fighting Velociraptors at Raptor Ram Ranch! Late Cretaceous threats trying to kill the cowboys while they are getting sucked! Look out for that Raptor's claws cowboy, you better duck! Cowboys on Raptor action in the showers at Ram Ranch! Raptor Ram Ranch really rocks!

[@pantherstar]

Watching this reminded me of a series I watched as a kid called Dinosapien, I’d love to hear your thoughts on that series! It was certainly something XD

[@kuitaranheatmorus9932]

Average Dino Diego W I love your videos, they're so well made and are just so good And I hope you had a great day

[@ChipTheDinosaurGuy]

Being a dinosaur fan means to know everything he's talking about already yet watching it whole eitherway

[@xax888servo7]

Awesome iceberg man. I hope there's a dinosaur video game episode coming soon.

[@DaveBrunoAnimation]

We had a VHS tape of "Journey to the Beginning of Time" as kids and watched the dinosaur part of it on repeat. Its still one of my dad's favorite Dinomedia movies

[@Katarn84]

Tier 7 spoilers: So… they made a movie based on a chidren educational novel series, the author of which tried to sue Crichton and Spielberg for Jurassic Park, and then dressed the main boy character A LOT like Alan Grant in the Jurassic Park movie…

[@BaconMinion]

Ah yes, Lost Continent, AKA ROCK CLIMBING: THE MOTIONLESS PICTURE. Oh boy, and King DInosaur! Starring, of course, JOEY THE LEMUR! Which is actually a kinkajou, but hey... And of course Gorgo, introduced by the one and only Leonard Maltin. Plus, ya know, it's also the best remake of The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh. God, I miss old school MST3K... But not connected to MST3K, holy crap it's the robots from Chopping Mall at 51:52. Also, oh god, the greatest clip art movie ever made at 1:09:41 Also a surprise appearance by Golden Bat at 1:15:27, who may be the very first superhero in the world.

[@kgarrison343]

Wow when you showed clips from Baby that made me realize that i had seen it too as a kid. What a trip!

[@js1423]

Will you do stuff on the British TV show Primeval?

[@CreatureFlicks573]

Interesting iceberg but didnt appreciate the hatred thrown at these movies, specially the lower budget ones that are often the best type of monster or creature films that you can find. At least there's more people finding out about these obscure gems, I would have personally added Saurians (1994) by Mark Polonia, another great low budget film with some of the cheapest dinosaurs ever used.

[@superiorcybergodzilla5670]

Very cool iceberg Dino Diego.

[@hollykurtz3840]

i can’t believe dinotopia isn’t on this it was my childhood 😭

[@bigslorbsofkyrgyzstan5541]

31:17 dude I remember watching this clip on KZbin all the time when I was a kid! never knew the same people who made Rudolph helped make it too

[@rga1605]

Dino City is such a strange movie, I remember I had the VHS, but for some I never managed to finish

[@LowellMorgan]

Lost in Dinosaur World was filmed at Marine World, an amusement park in Vallejo, California, and is partially a promotion for the installation of the animatronic dinosaur attraction in 1993.

[@bdablader95]

Okay I was NOT expecting to see live lizards with costumes on them

[@Tsotha]

that used to be a common method for representing dinosaurs in films until the 1970's, Dino Diego has an entire video about the topic titled "The Dinosaur Film Trend That's No Longer Used"

[@Jerko3000]

Best dino content on yt.

[@Sharauni]

Please make a whole video about Valley of Gwangi, it's one of my favorites and I would love to hear your take on everything involved^^ Also, as schlocky as Tammy and the Trex is, I adore it. How can you not laugh at the payphone scene where the rexes arm is like, 20 feet long? XD Also, Baby the Secret of the Lost Legend is an all time fave and actually got me into learning about Cryptozoology, the Crater Lake Monster only furthered my interest! My Pet Dinosaur is actually pretty good, a much better movie than the guys first one, you should watch it! Reptilicus is a fave simply because of the marionette dragon-dino XD Excellent video, but I was a little sad that a fairly recent one wasn't on it, lol. It's called Rise of Jurassic and it's horrible, but they use a very clear rip off of Blue from Jurassic World and a size changing T-rex! XD

[@barbaragagner7053]

Fun fact- For the longest time, the one of my favorite zoos down in Florida had one of Baby's static stand ins on it's nature walk for the longest time. It was taken out eventually to make room for a Sumatran Tiger exhibit before it had to be changed again to a Florida Black Bear rehab and exhibit because the tigers had gotten even further into the wrong side of endangered and the zoo was passed over for participation in that program.

[@Vinnus0824]

100 Million B.C. is my introduction to low-budget mockbusters all together

[@troin3925]

It's weird how different posters and DVD covers of My Pet Dinosaur give off completely different tones. There are posters that give it a more serious and emotional E.T. vibe with the tagline "Making friends is easy, keeping them is impossible," while a certain DVD cover makes it looks like a lighthearted Disney Channel sitcom with a CGI dinosaur with the tagline "Not your average pet" being drawn on a locker.

[@theheavyboy8838]

What sucks is that most people see dinosaurs as monsters rather than animals

[@felixowen2693]

That’s what I like about the film dinotopia. In it the people live in peace with dinosaurs and carry meat to give to carnivores saying that they’re only hungry so giving them meat won’t have them rely on attacking them for food.
