 I'm Shocked!
« Thread Started on Jan 14, 2011, 4:24pm »

Maybe not the best title, but I was never any good at naming things. Heh.

Why am I shocked though? Well with all the vintage era stuff making its way back to the public perception that we don't have a Dino-Riders remake happening with up-to-date dinosaurs in them.
Personally I've seen some of hellraptor's art on DeviantArt (e.g,: Rulon T.rex) and I think if the series were to come back for a big screen romp it would be quite good. Get the same writers together that did the Transformers movie and Star Trek movie respectedly and I think you'd have something pretty awesome.

What do you guys think?

I've been surprised as well--given all of the 80s garbage that has been or will be rebooted (Thundercats? Really?) how could nordic heroes and beastly aliens fighting it out, with dinosaurs as mounts, not be on the top of the list?

Or is that the new JPIV-JPVI plotline, so it would be redundant? ;D

Yes. Not very good ones, but they had excellent CGI
On topic now, I too am surprised that no-one's tried for a big-screen version.

Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true.

The difference is Dino-Riders is Dinos with guns done right! Heh.

I mean it wouldn't be a bad idea for Hollywood to re-examine this property and try to trudge back up and make a well-done movie out of it.

Dinosaucers was being re-considered recently for a new animated series..but it was dropped quickly. I would be more inclined to believe DR would be given the same treatment...updated but still animated.

I did not know that actually. Why was it decided against? Dinosaucers though was cheesy now that I remember.

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs could be fun too.
