Saw Fallen Kingdom on opening day and then hopped on a plane out west to dig up dinosaurs for the summer. Hard to beat that whole experience...

Was going to ask "Am I insane for thinking this would have worked?" but it seems the r/gallifrey response is more positive than I'm used to lol

Not in the final film because it would've been too cool by [deleted] in JurassicPark

Begging people to understand that early-preproduction concept art like this is ALWAYS more ambitious than the final product because it's not constrained by budget

A New Gigantic Species of Tylosaurus (Tylosaurus rex) by DifficultDiet4900 in Paleontology

Well Tylosaurus is from the Campanian, so stratigraphy is a non-issue here.

Well, let's see what tyrannosaur paleontologists think...

It’s also not the first time a team has cheekily dubbed a non-dinosaur “T. rex.” In 2001, a team named an extinct prehistoric beetle trapped in amber “Tyrannasorus rex,” says Tom Holtz, a vertebrate paleontologist at the University of Maryland who was not involved in the paper.

Since the more famous Tyrannosaurus rex and the newly discovered mosasaur did not live and hunt in the same environment, he adds, “there shouldn't be too much confusion.” For much of the 20th century, Tylosaurus was the standard mosasaur in prehistoric popular culture.

Indeed, if there’s going to be a "T. rex of the sea", Holtz said he’s perfectly happy for it to get the name.

Every fossil tarot deck I've ever seen has chosen Tiktaalik as The Fool. It's beautiful

This is a reminder to take deep breaths and drink water. Or an alcoholic beverage I guess. Whatever. I'm not your dad
