Dinosaurs have changed since we were kids. Having a four-year-old son means I've recently delved back into the world of these prehistoric beasts, much to the delight of my inner child and the dismay of my wife. I'm here to tell you that we've been lied to. Not intentionally, of course. But it turns out scientists just didn't have all the facts when '90s kid were busy growing up on "Jurassic Park."
If you happen to be one of those kids, you'll surely be slightly taken aback to find out that T-rex was not, as Steven Spielberg would have had us believe, entirely covered in scales, but at least had some feathers. More specifically, as The New York Times reported in 2019, T-rex are now thought to have had patches of feathers "for display." What's more, all the way back in 2007, a study confirmed for the first time that Velociraptors were also feathered dinosaurs,...

The Jurassic Park franchise places its characters in some of the most precarious situations. Sometimes the park's collection of dinosaurs can be awe-inspiring, on other occasions they can strike a frightening presence. Following Universal and Limited Run Games' announcement that Jurassic Park's Nes, Snes, and Gameboy games are being re-released for modern consoles, moviegoers are debating which of the series' characters are the bravest.

Jurassic Park's hulking prehistoric monstrosity, Giganotosaurus, first made its big screen debut in 2022’s Jurassic World Dominion. But thanks to a comic miniseries that acted as a then-sequel to the original trilogy, this oversized lizard was technically introduced years before the films ever had the thought too!
Crashing onto the scene in the finale of the Jurassic World trinity of films, Giganotosaurus was billed as the bigger, meaner, and more deadly version of franchise mainstay, the Tyrannosaurus Rex aka Rexy. Mentioned only in passing in the first Jurassic World as part of the DNA makeup of the brutal dinosaur hybrid known as the Indominus Rex, Giganotosaurus finally came to the silver screen in Jurassic World Dominion and immediately got to hunting down franchise alums Owen Grady and Alan Grant, while going toe-to-toe with Rexy and a new dino threat in the Therizinosaurus, a battle it ultimately didn’t end up winning.
