This movie may not have Raquel Welch in a fur bikini, but it DOES have fart jokes, so...that's something I guess...

[@stephenison5703]

🤔☝️Good job Brandon 😉 I would do the lex but I'm still brainstorming here 📜👈🤷🏼‍♂️

[@GODCONVOYPRIME]

so godzilla next episode?

[@rheneastheorangetankengine8727]

​@@GODCONVOYPRIMEi wonder if the next episode would be ghidorah the three headed dragon

[@jed213]

Fart jokes make everything better 💨

[@3L_B4R7O]

These films inspire me to push my own screenplay: YES REX CAN! The T-Rex Mcdee Story: *T-Rex Mcdee, everyone's favorite prehistoric terror, awoke from his slumber. He looked around in disbelief as the world had changed drastically since his slumber began. He was entranced with the current culture, and its advancements in technology, and decided it was time to become part of it.* *T-Rex had an idea of how to make an impact, an idea that could potentially change the world as we know it. He was going to run for president of the United States of America and take over the world!* *At first, people laughed and thought it was an unbelievable idea but when they saw all of the hard work and dedication T-Rex put into his campaign they started to take him seriously. He ran on a platform of making the country stronger and safer while also giving back to the people.* *The public quickly grew to love T-Rex Mcdee and his campaign was gaining traction. After several primary wins, T-Rex advanced to the general election in November of 2020.* *The election night was a roller coaster of emotions as the votes were counted. In the end, T-Rex Mcdee narrowly lost by a few hundred votes but the fact that a dinosaur was so close to winning the election was revolutionary.* *Although T-Rex did not win, his campaign changed the game and started a conversation about accepting and embracing others regardless of race, religion, or species.* *T-Rex Mcdee will forever be remembered as a symbol of courage, a champion of justice, and an inspiration to never fear the unknown.*

[@grumpyoldwizard]

Silly slapstick and then sudden violence is just the pattern of daily life in Korea. Perfectly understandable.

[@jasonblalock4429]

And Bong Joon-ho basically built his career on movies that can't stay in a tonal lane for more than about 15 minutes.

[@tskmaster3837]

I love it when Brandon does the fake subtitles joke. "I hate the fake subtitle joke."

[@Fulgrim2]

“Rodents of an unusual size”, I see what you did there and yeah, the T-Rex looks rather good.

[@grapeshot]

One thing this channel has shown me just how far Korean Cinema has come since the 1970s. Or in this case the 1990s.

[@johncouzens5321]

Train to Busan is amazing

[@youwayo]

I like Aimless Bullet

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

Would like to see Brandon review Pulgasari in the future.

[@benderbendingrodriguez420]

Honestly it's kinda crazy. Nowadays I far prefer Korean horror/thriller movies than anything coming out of Hollywood. Their glow up in cinema needs to be studied considering only 40 years ago the entire business was built around ripping off every IP they could think of 😂

[@kingofpointless]

South Korea itself has come pretty far over that same span, from impoverishment and dictatorship to one of the biggest economies and pop culture capitols of the world (although a lot of inequality still remains, which is what media like Parasite and Squid Game are about).

[@hankw69]

Some of the dinosaurs have a very Saturday morning Land of the Lost look to them.

[@bradencampbell464]

You did do Yor as well. That was kind of a caveman movie. The cavemen just also happened to fire laser guns at one point.

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

And the plot twist: It wasn’t a prehistoric movie, but a post-apocalyptic movie. Doesn’t explain the dinosaurs, though (this was LONG before Jurassic Park, so cloning was extremely unlikely).

[@keiththorpe9571]

Nameless Caveman tribal guy: How are we going to kill the T-Rex in the final climactic battle? Nameless Caveman tribal guy who seems to be the star of the movie: Oh, thank goodness, the latex dinosaur costume is nice and flammable, goes up like a torch!

[@Grimlock-ry8fg]

5:50 - that's no dinosaur, it's Minya!

[@nickdirienzo2849]

That T-Rex looked pretty damn good for a non Spielberg flick. Looked almost as good as the one from J.P.!

[@Canadamus_Prime]

That T-Rex model is actually pretty impressive for what kind of movie this is.

[@mmattson8947]

Agreed. The pachycephalosaurus is pretty good, too. They picked a dinosaur that was about the right size at 6 ft. high. (But also 16 ft. long and almost 500 lbs, so a little off.) And considering the relative budgets, I do not think the ones in "Jurassic Park: The Lost Word" are a thousand (hundred-thousand?) times better.

[@Delphink]

You know what we really want, we want Godzilla for Christmas 🎄🦖🏢

Holy hell dude. I started watching you a few years ago and if come back here n there (of course for the Godzilla reviews) but then saw your other stuff and im glad to see you're growing.

[@HeirofAzaran]

As a request from a fan, would you mind putting all your dinosaur movies onto one playlist? It would make it easier for me to sort out my favorite ones to rewatch

[@criscojesus4378]

Yes

[@lloydmckay3241]

You can make your own playlist for that.

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

Now imagine if they made a movie adaptation of Primal Rage.

[@DarkSoulSama]

When that pig showed up, my first thought was "Wait, that's not what a prehistoric pig looked like!". Only when the dude got shot with 2 arrows did I remember there were no dinossaurs in cavemen times... X_X

[@davidfinsterwald8022]

Holy crap, finally a new cult movie review! 🙏🏻 I was already suffering from withdrawal symptoms.. 😩😂

[@SwiftNimblefoot]

The Triceratops was played by Fairfax and Carstairs from 'Allo 'Allo, it was a movue up from their cow costume disguise. :P That "Oh-ah" saying wacky Pachycephalosaurus was certainly unexpected.

[@mattmadden3013]

Thanks for the chuckles, very funny.

[@ObiClon]

Nothing like starting off the weekend with a new Brandon Tenold video!

[@smithwesson1896]

Japanese stuff are one of the kind 🎉🎉🎉but South Korea is underrated

[@WolfHreda]

7-year-old dinosaur nerd me would've absolutely laughed watching a man try to headbutt a pacchycephalosaurus.

[@MyrifleMywaifu]

My wife was like The director is actually a known Korean comedian, but he always wanted to be a director so we ended up with this 😅 I guess you can't be good at everything. On the plus side at least we get a new video from you.

[@MinscFromBaldursGate92]

4:20 I thought this was Dinosaurs vs Cavemen, not Korean Lord of the Flies.

[@fed0t38]

Hey, it's Dino Diego on the KZbin screen at the end, really great content creator who covers all sorts of dinosaur and paleo media, highly recommend to anybody who interested in that stuff! He just recently made 2 part in depth video about Carnosaur franchise, starting with original book.

[@adam346]

Philosophy tube, LazerPig and now Brandon Tenold??? GREAT DAY!!! Edit: Jose as well! YAY!

[@Morboeatspeople]

Thanks for the tip; just watched Tyranno's Claw and it inspires lunatic laughter

[@guy_badly]

I have jus recently found this channel amd ive binged pretty much the whe thing, even recommended it to my mother, since she got me hooked on bad movies. Now I look forward to new videos. Also love all the mst3k references

[@ChrisMortJr.]

Actually a lot of words in korean are pretty close to their English counterparts like coffee being 카피 (ka pi) which is pretty neat and has helped quite a bit in my learning of the language

[@Oppeldeldoc1]

I notice that dinosaur stories seem to have it in for pterodactyls more than any other animal. This isn't even the first one I know of where the hero does that to the infant ones, or even the SECOND one I know of. I like that ONE MILLION YEARS B.C. is the flipside of that, where every pterodactyl manages to survive.

[@villeuusivuori7150]

6:20 Pachycephalosaurus is rare enough sight on any dino related media, so I will not stand you disrespecting it like that.

[@LittleMissGrosser]

The snotty annoying dinosaur is hilarious 😂

[@rodento3220]

Does that mean MOAR Godzilla?

[@666michie]

LOVE the channel!! You have introduced me to new stuff I would have never found!!

[@planestrainsandautomobiles8065]

They may not be the worst looking effects, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make fun of them!

[@bensneb360]

Boy, this Director sure loves giant Reptilians attacking places lol

[@mikekomarinski]

6:25 It's a Pachycephalosaurus.

[@aaronthe747fan]

I was going to comment that same thing there is also a Petradon at 8:44

[@24framedavinci39]

Damn. No Godzilla Minus One video? Very surprised.

[@ajh6354]

Keep putting out the awesome videos, bro.

Still no Ice Pirates, Brandon? Geeeeeeze.......

I was waiting for a 90's dinosaurs "Not the Momma" at the triceratops baby

[@justinsullivan1285]

"Oh no I've been shot by two arrows. My one weakness." And since it's on KZbin, I'll check it out.🦖

[@Endquire]

As soon as the jokes started my first thought was they must have seen "Caveman" and a smattering of cavemen and dinosaur action movies like Yor, the Hunter from the Future".

[@samuelmeasa9283]

Return of an old friend....! NINJA OUTSIDE THE KITCHEN WINDOW?

[@nelsonnderitu3630]

10:17 haha, I was paying attention😂😂😂 the misdirection got me 😂😂

Early CGI was a novelty, and proper special effects will always be better even if it's clearly just a person in a suit.

[@janosjph805]

*Watches goat thrashing itself to death in jagged looking prop* "Damn, Brandon. Are you sure KZbin will be ok with this review?" -You can watch the entire movie right here on KZbin. "Oh, uh, Ok then. Carry on."

Lol, you had to bring up Little foot. I'm still trying to get over that trauma.

[@GambitWilson-ql4nx]

Been a long time since I've watched any of your videos. Glad i found your channel again

[@moseshorowitz4345]

I have a hunch the director was also a fan of Ringo Starr's _Caveman_ .

[@billtravis2369]

Hey Brandon! I've been watching your show for a long time. Thank you🙂

[@hankmessaros6700]

Lol ok that was so bad but you got me laughing. Dude what a great job man, once again you did it.

[@guillaumebabey4484]

I wonder where Shim found some of these models, considering the varying degree of quality. The Triceratops, adult and child, seem directly modelled after the one in Jurassic Park and the T.rex too seems heavily inspired by it, while the Pachycephalosaur is all rubbery and the Pteranodon, while goofy, surprisingly accurate! It's all over the place!!

[@BlackKnightOfTheWind]

I don't know whether to be disappointed at no mention of the Yee meme regarding that first terrible dinosaur, or be impressed at the restraint.

[@grapeshot]

Young Earth creationists would consider this a documentary😂

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

“0/10, did not end with the Great Flood and Noah’s Ark” - Some Young Earth creationist idiot

[@marklittrell3202]

Your videos are aleays a treat.

[@alankohn6709]

I've watched a lot of Korean TV Shows and they often have the strange juxta position between light and silly and dark and grim Strong girl Bong Soo is about a girl with super strength and for the most part is a slap sticky romcom about her and her boss but the sub plot is about a violent serial killer . So this seems to follow that track.

[@AngelCopout]

Ooh Korean. How fitting as I'm in Seoul for another 2 days.

[@JJ-kl7eq]

The T Rex did not, I repeat did *not*, eat Brandon. Despite his line about the T Rex eating the real GOAT.

[@cruzcamel]

Honestly this looked kind of awesomene! Perfect amount of schlock for a caveman movie.

[@lobcat-j2o]

This movies name makes me think of a t-rex crossed with Santa clause. Tyrannos claws, during the Jurassic he knows if you were naughty or nice.

[@TheEvilpossum]

I've reviewed a Korean movie called Dragon Wars. That makes the dinos here look like Stan Winston.

[@louisduarte8763]

2:37 PLEASE review 1 Million Years B.C. It's surprisingly awesome!

[@jtv6038]

The T-Rex in this movie reminds me of the T-Rex in Toy Story.

[@1down4upworkshop61]

It's like a lower budget, Korean version of the 80s Ringo Star movie caveman LOL

[@littleblackduck3134]

Your bringing back an old friend?...do you mean the O.G.?

[@archonfett]

he had to kill those baby dinos, they grow up into cliff racers

[@arkayoarkayo4739]

..."They only got as far as the 'Y'."...😂

[@ArmouryTerrain]

This snarky review has brightened my day.

[@madsjacobsen2551]

I really hope the old friend you are talking about is either godzilla or gamera from the good gamera trilogy

[@dfailsthemost]

I read it as Tyranids Claws in the thumbnail, initially. That's probably not a great sign.

[@hectorjung9441]

REAL FACT: This movie was marketed towards children. I rented a VHS copy of this as a kid and I clearly remember it was rated "all ages" on the cover. That's Korean equivalent of PG rating. Take that from a Korean who gew up in the 90s

[@Cukito4]

That jumping dinosaur looks like the baby from Eraserhead. Greetings from Costa Rica!

[@andrewmarsjr9879]

I think it's time for that ninja to threaten your balls again lol

[@legoking6165]

I'd really like to see Brandon talk about more animated movies.

[@JJ-kl7eq]

First pachycephalosaurus I’ve seen in a dinosaur movie.

[@toddrohrer8680]

I really enjoy your videos

[@joevaughn9241]

They should have replaced the little sneezing dinosaur with Minilla. Talking Minilla would be even better. 😀👍

[@crown75au]

Princess Bride reference *BONUS POINTS*

[@TheJLF65]

This seems more like a parody of Ringo Starr's Caveman. Very weirdly similar in plot and comedy flip flops.

[@xkumanekox]

Still a better movie, and accurate depiction of prehistoric life, than '10,000 BC'.

[@WangNurMouth]

Considering the depiction here shows cavemen and dinosaurs in the same biome ar the same time. Little of this movie would constitute as accurate lol

[@logansmith2703]

​@@WangNurMouththat's the joke

[@DeepEye1994]

10.000 BC would've been more charming if the good guys didn't speak English and the movie was told more visually like the Cavemen flicks it was a pastiche of. That nonsense about a chosen one was so trite

[@canonbehenna612]

You know Dino Diego did a review on this movie wish you did a colander with him

[@burningpapersun1]

We needed dinosaur fart jokes, not caveman ones.

[@georgeowain]

04:02 looks more like the Stone Age version of Mallet’s Mallet.

[@jasonjimerson7046]

What? No Yor reference during the Pterodactyl scene? You're slipping, Brandon!

[@auchinsuniverse6285]

14:12 this scene is kinda familiar to jurassic world: dominion Where ian malcolm throws fire at the giganotosaurus' mouth.

[@Gentleman_Jester]

I think they repainted the dinosaur from Toy Story for this movie. I’ve always hoped that no matter how old I get. A part of me will always be the kid that I was. That kid still likes to laugh at fart jokes in movies. 😂

[@tmamone83]

5:54 Looks like what would happen if the baby from Eraserhead grew up to be a kaiju.

[@MarcelisKhaldern]

Not gonna lie, Carnosaur wishes it had a T-Rex that good!

[@Iruleyoufail]

I almost died from watching this video thanks to the fart scene while eating Mac n Cheese.

[@emanuelferreira6875]

Will we have a christmas special??? Big fan

[@tvmasterc]

Better than 'Tammy and the Teenage T-Rex'. I guess. Maybe. Maybe you should do 'Hanger 18' or 'Earthbound'.

[@justinbremer2281]

This looks like the kind of thing that a younger Me would have caught on TV one late Sunday morning and then either obsessed over or half-forgot and could never find somebody to corroborate its existence

Godzilla Minus One Review?👀

[@DemonKingBadger]

So, considering they did a caveman short, that guy was essentially Korean Shemp.
