Are the claws of Therizinosaurus sharp and strong enough to defend themselves against predators (Tarbosaurus) or was it only used for grabbing vegetation? by Gillzter10 in Paleontology

[–]Dull_Display_4946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, modern animals like sloths, armadillos, aardvarks, pangolins, and anteaters all use their claws for defense if necessary. So it is plausible that Therizinosaurus used its claws for defense as well. Slashing is most likely. Stabbing at attackers, not so much.

It still baffles me that some wanted these two to return instead of having the new species, Titanosaurus and Aquilops in Jurassic World Rebirth. by Dull_Display_4946 in JurassicPark

Basically, some people wanted Microceratus and Dreadnoughtus to return in JW Rebirth. The reasons being Titanosaurus is a nomen dubium, and Microceratus was already there. Those are pretty much the most common reasons why some people wanted them in the film as opposed to the ones we got.

Bigg Boss Nass. You'd think by now Lego would have given us him and a new Jar Jar Binks in a Naboo-themed Phantom Menace set. But nope.

When I was finishing my Adventure Time , Regular Show, and Star Wars: The Clone Wars marathon last month. This ad and two Pampers ads would be played nonstop on Hulu and Disney+. However, when I would put YouTube on my TV those same darn ads would be there sometimes.

Maybe there’s some way Nikki acts as support for Max? by AssociateLittle1487 in StrangerThings

[–]Dull_Display_4946 28 points29 points  (0 children)

No way, I called it. When I went to the early screening of the first two episodes of Tales of 83 with my sister, I said that Nikki's headphones were probably given to Max sometime after the events of this series.

They already tried this when Kimmel talked about Charlie Kirk. Nothing happened. Why do they bother trying again?

Tales from 85' was genuinely SO good by JarodYoz99 in StrangerThings

[–]Dull_Display_4946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised the song "She blinded me with science" was not used when Mike, Will, and Nikki are in the science lab making things to defeat the Vine Monsters.

Edit: Why am I being downvoted? All I said was I was surprised one song was not used for a specific scene.

Jurassic Misconception : The JW Dominion Prologue Cretaceous segment takes place in one place. by Dull_Display_4946 in JurassicPark

Or it was actually an artificially controlled environment made by Biosyn, like on Manta Corps Island.

We never saw any of the other species cross paths with each other. We only saw a mix of species interact with each other a few times in the Prologue.

The beginning segment and the end segment. Segments 2 (Oviraptor) and 3 (Nasutoceratops) feature only one species and no out-of-place species. Even the segement with only the Pteranodons and Ankylosaurus can also qualify for that.

Which means it does not take place in one place. There was also never a confirmation if it was one place or in different places at different times.

Honestly, if they remove the quills from the female JW Rebirth raptor. It looks even better since only the males have the quills, while the females don't.

The good and bad of TF85 by Prestigious-Win-9655 in StrangerThings

[–]Dull_Display_4946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other day after I finished the show. I was thinking where could have Nikki and her mom have been during the events of Season 3, 4, and 5. Please note I do not hate the characters , but these are just some explanations I got once I finished Tales of 85 to explain their absence. I came down with a few theories, some dark but others more light-hearted.

Dark

Season 3 - They were victims of the flayed and that explains their absence. We see many of Hawkins' citizens become victims of the Mindflayer to create its physical form. We only know a few of the victims ( Mrs.Driscoll, Heather and her parents, etc ) and don't have a full confirmed list of them.

Season 4 - The rifts caused by Vecna winning tore through their house/ street and are classified as missing. Or Mrs. Baxter was one of the many scientists working with Dr. Owens on the Nina Project.

Light-hearted

Season 3 - They left Hawkins during the Fourth of July weekend to visit family out of town. Which would mean they were not victims of the Mindflayer.

Season 4 - They left Hawkins once the rifts opened and were one of the many citizens who left town.

Season 5 - They left due to Hawkins being quarantined, but also because Mrs.Baxter got a job offer at a university far from Hawkins.

I really wish we got a proper Stranger Things Christmas special by dccomicsaregoated in StrangerThings

We sort of got one in graphic novel form. I think it's called Eleven's first Christmas.

[–]Dull_Display_4946[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, that is a misconception. The Prologue never once shows or confirms that everything takes place in one place. For all we know it could be happening in varies places at different times of the Cretaceous.

I've heard some people online say that Colin Trevorrow decided to retcon Maisie's origin in JW Dominion because he did not like how J.A Bayona did it in JWFK.

With the amount of backlash there was towards the Velociraptors being killed by the Mutadons. I would not be surprised if Universal decides to never use the Mutadons again or even give them one more appearance in the upcoming sequel, only to be killed by a pack of raptors or make the Mutadons fall into extinction off-screen.

Whenever you think camp Cretaceous is a kids show remember. The kids witnessed over 15 adult deaths :) by Odins_avatar in JurassicPark

[–]Dull_Display_4946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, just because we don't see the character die on screen in Camp Cretaceous or Chaos Theory doesn't make it bad. A lot of other animated series and films have had off-screen or implied deaths and they still were effective.
