Product Description
Additional Features
The two-disc Collector's Edition speaks directly to the film's core audience: kids and animation enthusiasts. Along with a widescreen version of the film, the first disc is very kid-friendly with two games ("Aladar's Adventure" is quite fun) and an informative short naming the dinosaurs seen in the movie. Using the "Fossil Dig" mode to watch the film, a viewer can see behind-the-scenes footage during certain scenes, as a dinosaur icon appears in the corner of the screen, and then is taken back to the film automatically. This is a great way to see the movie anew during repeated showings. As with previous Disney DVDs, there is plenty on the animation process on the second disc--hundreds of sketches, examples of the complex layering of scenes, and illustrations of the different forms of filmmaking from storyboards to 3-D workbooks. Six dropped sequences are shown (in various stages of completion) that hint at a darker-toned film. Best are the segments of how the show-stopping scenes (the asteroid impact, the "dino" cam) were created and some early presentation reels. The two commentary tracks are standard fare, but the hidden "Easter Eggs" (hidden features--look for the dinosaur-head skeleton) are quite fun, delving into other dinosaur tidbits from the Disney archives. --Doug Thomas

"GREAT!",
This review is from: Dinosaur (DVD)
I know this movie didn't get the best reviews ever, but it is just that many people are beliving that the movie is copy-catting "The Land Before Time". THAT'S NOT TRUE! This movie was created to show kids that they should get along in tough times, and be a team. Most people arn't getting that message.Although this movie does have major flaws, it still is worth buying. What flaws you ask? For instance, the star of the show, Aladar, is an Iguanodon. The main villain in the show, is a Carnotaurus. Unlike the movie, Carnotaurus was much smaller than any Iguanodon. But I reccomend you still buy it! It's really worth more than it is advertised.

Dinosaur,
By "u_raben" (Torring, Denmark) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dinosaur (2-Disc Collector's Edition) (DVD)
Dinosaur is just like Land Before Time, but the difference is that Dinosaur is fully CGI animated.The music and the animation is great, and there are many memorable scenes and characters. There is a lot of extras to explore on the 2 Disc edition, and it includes behind the scenes, deleted scenes, and the early versions of Dinosaurs. I think that extras like commentary tracks are missing, and that the movie could had been a little longer.

Stunning animation, silly plot.,

This review is from: Dinosaur (DVD)
Dinosaur (Eric Lighton and Ralph Zondag, 2000)Why does Disney insist that every animated film have two directors? Just wondering. In any case, when I first saw the previews for this, I had hopes it was going to be a full-length animated silent film. So I ended up initially disappointed, but at least they got some fun voices. Newbie director Leighton and second-timer Zondag (whose earlier film was the painfully bad dinosaur flick We're Back!) have, basically, done an update of The Land Before Time with stunning animation and (to say the least) a better voice-acting cast. Where The Land Before Time used unknowns (though Helen Shaver has since gone on to relative fame), Dinosaur started with the works: D. B. Sweeney (Strange Luck), Ossie Davis (Do the Right Thing, Bubba Ho-Tep), Alfre Woodard (Holiday Heart, A Wrinkle in Time), Max Casella (Doogie Howser MD), Julianna Margulies (ER), Della Reese (Touched by an Angel)... you get the idea. The story is your typical cutesy Disney pablum (if you're expecting Winged Migration after watching the incredible trailers for this flick, steel yourself for political correctness now) overlaid upon the Land Before Time storyline; best if we leave it at that. If you're going to rent this, rent it for the astounding animation and leave the sound off. **
