Are the hot chicks inacurate? Sure! But who cares? Really, who cares? An lemme say somthing else, if this movie was remade today it would gross some serious money from the 18 to 34 male demographic! I know 'case I'm in that demographic.
I'm cracking up here; someone feels its unrealistic for the cave babes to look gorgeous, but has no problem with the fact there are people living simultaneously with dinosaurs?
That was cracking me up too. At least I suspend disbelief enough to think she had a resesive gene that grow body hair or perhaps fell into dinosaur dung that dry and when removed it pulled off her hair, a Jurassic Wax. I'm kidding of course, This movie's main draw for most men would have been Rachel Welch and it was nice to see her poster in The Shawshank Redemption.
to be fair there are plenty of people in the world who do think dinosaurs and humans lived together, although of course it was only thousands of years ago, the earth wasn't around a million years ago!
"...to be fair there are plenty of people in the world who do think dinosaurs and humans lived together, although of course it was only thousands of years ago, the earth wasn't around a million years ago!"
The earth is several BILLION years old.
The end of the Mesozoic era (which contained three ages...Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous) ended roughly about 65 million years ago. The age of dinosaurs lasted for over 250 MILLION years.
Some religious right wing fanatics believe that the earth is only a few thousand years old and that dinosaurs lived with people and...get this...that the devil is resposible for casting around fossils to throw doubt into people. They also believe that some dinosaurs breathed fire and that this was seen by knights in armor as dragons.
Too bad Ray harryhausen has retired because this would be a great Fantasy Film for his dynamation effects!
I bet you could make a great monster movie out of this fundamentalist codswallop.
What did you want lvlr....you wanted more "hairy" female actresses like Italian or Greek ones who dont shave.
The producers wanted to make money......the best asset in the film for this was the women.....of course they aren't going to have hairy, squared jawed, chicks dragging their knuckles around in the dust for sake of reality so that we guys would begin to fancy John Richardson more than the female cast.
This may be true, lvlr, but you need to remember the movie is made with elements of action and fantasy. I was aware (even as a little boy) dinosaurs and cavemen never lived in the same era, but it's a fun and entertaining idea to ask: What if they did live at the same time? Science has not yet found evidence of any prehistoric spider larger than today's Goliath bird-eating spider, but yet "One Million Years B.C." took the fun liberty to have a super-gigantic tarantula featured! Yeah, the cavewomen do have freshly shaven legs and armpits, but that was all part of the glamour of movies back then. - People like to see attractive men and women in the movies, and harsh, ugly, dirty realism doesn't always make for an entertaining evening! You'd only have a movie of grunting, hairy women, cavemen bashing each other, and one erupting volcano without the dinosaurs, giant tarantula, giant lizards, etc.
In real life Raquel Welch is waxed up all over except for the pubic area. I have seen a few nudes of her and she has quite a bush down there, it's actually very sexy. Why you think welch always wear those wide bikinis?
Don't worry it's not like super bush like a lot those east indian women do when you can barely see where the vagina is located, lol.
To top everyone's posts, when I saw this as a kid, I remember some friend's parent saying, "darn, good thing they filmed the dinosaurs back then before they all died."
