Great movie.

That's not answering my question. Concentration!

Because "dinosaur" is the family and "tyrannosaurus" is the breed. Serious leg pain.

But nothing is stronger than family.

What do you call a dinosaur with one eye?

A Doyouthinkhesawus?

Tyrannosaur - That movie is a blast from the past, much like a dinosaur's fart.
