>>725970961Jurassic Park dinosaurs are just as real as "real" dinosaurs.
>>725971010there he is, now we can have 100+ posts of pure schizo ramblings like in every fucking dinosaur and or space thread
>>725971230I'm not saying they're fake, just that modern interpretations are really no different than the Hollywood monstrosities that paleofags claim to despise.
>>725971426depends on which ones, some of them got well preserved and we can be pretty accurate on how they looked like. But yeah for some of them we only have a couple bones, imagining how they were like from every scrap of information we have is part of the fun of paleontology

>>725971010>>725971426horner completely misrepresented spinosaurus for jp3 specifically because he had a grudge against t rex and wanted some new bigger dinosaur to knock it down a pegnow horner's t rex scavenger slander has been thoroughly debunked and spinosaurus is semi-aquatic and semi-bipedal, not due to different interpretations but due to newly discovered fossils. Jurassic park is not a valid interpretation of any dinosaur and has always knowingly portrayed dinosaurs inaccurately from the beginning, like velociraptor and dilophosaurus.
>>725972631I don't disagree, but to be fair, Spinosaurus being semi aquatic and semi bipedal was popularized by JPIII in the first place.Nobody wants to admit it though because all JPIII haters care about is that a random T. rex got killed and it hurt their feelings.
I don't believe in feathered dinosaurs.
permian synapsids will always mog everyone else in the coolness department

>>725972805it was shown swimming at one point, because of the idea that its jaw was for eating fishthey didn't show it with a body adapted for swimming because we didn't know about it at that point. it was definitely not depicted as semi-bipedal
>>725972930I only believe in the really small ones like Archaeopteryx that actually had a use for them.It makes no sense for anything bigger than them to have it given how hot things supposedly were and how they served no real purpose.>th-they were for balance and le aerodynamics!Have you seen how fast lizards can run?
>>725973641>given how hot things supposedly werethe world was overall hotter, but some dinosaurs lived on the south pole, which was still pretty cold
>>725971815That's a fucking retarded metric to judge success on. By those standards an animal that can thrive in every biome it enters would be counted as a failure due to feeling less evolutionary pressure to change. If anything crocodiles would be a huge success for not having to change much over millions of years. Crabs too for other crustaceans slowly evolving more towards them.
>>725973520>it doesn't count because... because it just doesn't!Ok.And yes it did, but more specifically, it was shown to be semi quadrupedal, it gets on its forearms enough throughout the movie. Watch the rex fight again.
>>725973767Diversity is our strength, anon.
>>725973837>it gets on its forearms enough throughout the movie. Watch the rex fight again.I just checked, it puts its forelimbs on the ground onceI don't see the point of this, it's an entirely fictional version of the dinosaur. The fact that it swims once doesn't change the fact that the movie depicts it as a creature completely unrelated to its real life ecology. T rex also swims in jurassic park movies, and it's not aquatic at all.
>>725974117T. rex has never swam in a Jurassic Park movie, only the novel.The point still stands that it was very much a progressive take on Spinosaurus and paleofags are too stubborn to admit it because they hate the film.
>>725972631Nobody had any clear idea what Spinosaurus looked like back then (and still don't), so they just filled in the gaps and made it look like Suchomimus. It can be conveniently explained away that the one in JP3 and CC is supposed to be a hybrid like the Indominus, since we now see a different representation of it in JP Afterbirth.

>>725973845Imagine being scammed into funding these researchers only to be given that ridiculous narrative as the conclusion.
>>725974261>>725974370pretty sure it swims in one of the jurassic world movieseither way, it doesn't matter. The depiction of spinosaurus in jp3 was inaccurate to the information they had at the time, and horner knew it was inaccurate. Everyone at the time knew that spinosaurus would not be hunting large prey like t rex does, and that it would not beat a t rex in a fight. This is very very obvious based only on the skull. this isn't even about realistic depictions of dinosaurs, this is about some idiot who said that the jurassic park depiction of dinosaurs is just as legitimate as modern depictions of dinosaurs, and that it's simply a difference in interpretation. That is a ridiculous claim, and not even the people who worked on the movie would say that now.
>>725974746>the jurassic park depiction of dinosaurs is just as legitimate as modern depictions of dinosaursThat's true though.
>>725974369>take the risk and spend the energy hunting your own food>some nigger animal just steals it from you
>>725974278How did Nigel Thornberry get so close to them?
>>725975454He's an expert.
>>725975454Are you retarded? The rexes are actors
>>725968385Those look like dinosaurs to me
out of my way you fucking milksuckers
>>725975580loved that show wish he got a dimetrodon
>>725975580I'm confident enough to say that anyone living in last 100 or so years, at least once in their lives, would have thought about how they'd fare in prehistoric times with gargantuan predators - and I feel as if running away in a straight line is not a very good idea.
