Is it possible?



 

Is it possible to have accurate dinosaurs in movies and documentaries? Many on the list believe no, that the movie companies have the final say. I say there is an alternative solution. We have to stop working with the system (just being consultants, and then banging our heads when the final production is shown) and start working WITH IN the system.

 

What do I mean by that?

 

If we could come up with backers for JP4 to fund at least half the special effects and take it to Universal and tell them that we will fund half the special effects, but under one condition, that the dinosaurs have to be 100 percent more accurate. I doubt very seriously that Universal will turn that down.

 

We start a company or division (what ever) with people who want to have them done accurately and go from there. The backers will get their money back and then some (that’s what backers do). Our company gets a small percentage of the profit. Some gets funneled into paleontology and research for more projects. Once the new standard is set, others will have to follow because the public will then have a higher idea of what the animals looked like.

 

Maybe find someone who’s job it is to find backers who are interested in such a project? And go from there.

 

It is possible.
