Re: WWD Allosaurus

Might as well throw in my 2 cents here as well.

This WWD Allosaurus show was very cool in my opinion, and overall it was 
great how they explained where some of the information was coming from.  I 
agree with Jamie Headden that the salt lake chase scene with Big Al and the 
sauropods was most excellent.

I think the show would be a great teaching tool, where you could show it to 
a class, have them take notes, and then ask them what they think was 
possible or impossible.  Makes a great discussion tool for sure.

Of course, sauropods rearing up and down is not my cup of tea, at least not 
so far as the evidence I have seen is concerned, but hey, any show that has 
long clips of sauropods is okay in my book! =)  The neck and tail positions 
were good, though, although the feet leave something to be desired (but 
that's just my foot predjudice!).  It was great that the allos just tired 
out the injured diplo and let it die before eating.  That would seem to be 
more realistic than charging a healthy mountain of flesh! =)

Overall, WWD Allosaurus was presented better than the original WWD (at least 
here in states; I understand in the UK they had more interviews and 
explanations in the original WWD).

Well, off to more sauropodous pastures,

Matt Bonnan
