I love how the Ankylosaurus was like "Yeah, whatever." during the first half of the film.
Would you mess with something that not only has the strongest armor built into its body but also the strongest bone exploding club as a natural weapon
@@crimsondynamo615 Heck No! 🤣
I used to watch this stopmotion documentary all the time as a kid . Fun times ^^
@@XenoTeeth3 The old school stuff was & still is - the best.
In terms of aesthetics, yes in terms of accuracy, no.
the old version of a rex was like a drunken biker who goes around town picking fights with everyone
And the new t-rex is a rage driven dragon that kills everything in its path
nah the new rex is an actual animal predator with an identity crisis of weather it wants to have scales or feathers
The new Trex was more like a blood thirsty chicken
I dunno why, but I always imagined our current understanding of rexes to be like a bear, minus the omnivorous tendencies.
The Lost World (1925) it's the movie it was in
I really like this. We all say outdated, and that is certainly true. However, no one uses the Ray Harryhausen-esque style anymore, and it is genius to show it off right here. Ray Harryhausen was a great man. This is to show all respect towards his incredible legacy, one that may not be anatomically accurate, but one that is certainly memorable for all eternity.
Rest in Peace, Ray Harryhausen.
1920 - 2013
He really was a technical genius. I've always loved Ray and his numerous works. Stop-motion was actually really cool to watch and just has that authentic feeling to that CGI most of the time lacks. To me, stuff like this makes like, Jurassic Park in particular all that more amazing. For a Hollywood film to show these animals with that level of detail and to be pretty scientifically accurate for the time, just shows how kind of unprecedented the effects for, and that film itself was.
There is an aura of magic in the 'forced' technique of stop-motion creatures! It seems as though it is how we all wish these animals really moved! Somehow, the dinosaurs seem more fantastic using the process that Willis O'Brien, Ray Harryhausen, Jim Danforth, Wah Chang, Gene Warren and Tim Barr helped to popularize in many of these films of fantasy! Without them, would we have ever seen the likes of Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Nightmare Before Christmas and many other recent epic movies?
The stop motion photography is amazing. Reminds me of Ray Harryhausen's animations
Oh yeah also Willis O'Brien
The director, Bill Maylone, was actually inspired by Harryhausen. He wrote a forward to a book on Harryhausen's dinosaur projects where he talks about this short and how he was influenced by seeing Harryhausen's work as a kid.
WAIT ITS STOP MOTION?! WHAT NO WAY!!!!!!

@thundercat123studios Some of it was his stuff.
At least the T-rex isn't dragging its tail. Most movies still did that at the time
T rex, along with the majority of dinosaurs, dragged their tails the same way a modern reptile would today.
Stephen Reill proof? Give me one modern fossil reconstruction with a Rex dragging its tail. Dinosaurs were related to birds, not lizards
+Stephen Reill Dinosaurs didn't drag their tails. Their tail vertebrae showed they were held rigid, plus dinosaur trackways don't show tail dragging. Stop perpetrating old, outdated myths.
Last time I checked, Dinosaurs are reptiles (the word dinosaur literally translates to "terrible lizards") and as far as all possible evidence suggests, every reptile on earth drags its tail when it walks. If the dinosaurs didn't drag their tails, they'd have no balance when walking and would've fell overhead all the time. The tail dragging was to balance their weight and they could not have been held "rigid" ask any paleontologist.
Stephen Reill ask any paleontologist if there birds or reptiles. Also when they were first discovered
People thought they were lizards that’s why there named that. Now we know they’re not.
I had this on VHS, which was definitely censored because I don't remember the trike stabbing the egg snatcher or the Rex killing the herbivore on screen.
Nice to see it again in it's full glory.
You too?
Yeah, I remember this being censored, too, back when I was watching this as a kid.
I had this on VHS as a kid. It freaked me out but I loved it. I looked this up on a whim. Cant believe the quality 👏👏👏
Me too! Definitely traumatized me a little bit. 😅
Obviously set during The Plasticine Period...
Cretaceous Period.
@@syedjeffri5767 you didn't get the joke
Huh! Good one! LOL
@@syedjeffri5767 r/Wooosh
@@syedjeffri5767 its a joke
I love how the Tyrannosaurus FINALLY gets a kill, then immediately drops dead. The hell was in that Edmontosaurus?
"You cant kill me if i kms first" ahh Dino 💀
Does anyone else remember there being a documentary that came after this short on the VHS tape? I had this as a kid, after the animated part there's a ~40 minute segment that's just still paintings with narration and sound effects.
Did you ever find the documentary? I'm looking as well
The version you're searching for is "Dinosaurs of the Jurassic and Other Periods"
6:68
I love how retro it is!
So do I. It’s quite refreshing to reflect on after all the CGI of the Jurassic Park films.
this is brilliant.... especially for 1981
Right
This I haven't seen in years! This is wonderful!
It is incredibly scientifically inaccurate but damn I love stop motion, honestly the charm makes I hard for me to care
This is from the 80 what do you you want acuarate dinos?
AVD Gaming it’s not from the 80s it wouldn’t look this good, it would look grainy.
KrustyRedd ok
KrustyRedd 1981
MAXKER 1981. It's called hd restoration. Have you not heard of Blu-ray or 4k dvd? How do you think those are made
I first saw this film back in 2004. I loved it but it scared the crap out of me for some reason. Especially the Tyrannosaurus scenes.
@TonynatorT how it's missing some teeth in it's mouth
I like the vintage dinosaurs documentaries than the nowadays documentary i know its inacurate but it gives me nastalgia thats why i like it
More outdated than inaccurate.
SAME!!😂😊
I agree!
@@Mac14329 well, the non-avian dinosaurs were wiped out before 66 million years BP... I don't know why they say 64 million years here....
@@andrewtheworldcitizen Again. Outdated.
9:19 I like how he's just like "holy crap....I got something! I finally caught something!!!"
Been years since I saw this. Takes me back to when I was a kid
It took me back too. Only there were a few cut out scenes from the VHS version. For examples From an angry Mother Tric 7:59 to 8:16 To the Tyrant's last Meal 9:02 to 9:27. This is probably on a DVD on some website somewhere. Featuring All 11 & a Half Minutes of this completely.
Yeah, this was definitely. The "inspiration" for Walking With Dinosaurs.. 😃 Music score is pretty boss, too
Awesome, been looking for this little gem for years now.
I used to watch it all the time when i was just a kid.
Seeing this brings back memories and feelings of nostalgia^^.
What year is this posted?
My god, I have not seen this movie in a LOOOONG time. The last time I saw this movie was back in my school days and been hunting down what I saw years ago. Now I have found it at last, only wish I have it in my collection. Thank you good sir for uploading this piece of the past from my childhood ^^

"64,000,000 years ago"
Man, it's surprising how old some youtube uploads are.
I never knew the National Film Board of Canada released an animated dinosaur documentary! Cool!
Dinosaurs in this video:
Ornithomimus
Ankylosaurus
Edmontosaurus
Triceratops
Tyrannosaurus Rex
Super Mario Logan Fan Damnit the rex is in miniscule since its the species and if you are going to mention the genus and not the species,then just say Tyrannosaurus.
You mean Ornitho *Meme* Us? Because that's how he pronounces it apparently.
Back then not to many Dino’s were discovered that’s why
I'm no ***MIMUS*** I'm a ****MEEMUS****
@@alphamaledeathclaw1038FR
Sometimes I do forget that these were made in a time before the meteor was known. Curious that to the people back then, there was a lot of mystery behind the extinction
Yeah, it's outdated and a lot of the info is now known to be incorrect, but c'mon...it was made 37 years ago. We've learned a lot since then, and those who didn't grow up in the 80's shouldn't be hating. This is what we thought dinos were back then, and even this was a leap from the sluggish upright cold blooded tail dragging dinos from the 70's. A lot has changed since 1981. I like how sexy rexy gets his own soundtrack everytime he makes an appearance. So dramatic. Love it!!!
I couldn't agree more
Stop motion retro dinosaurs always scratch a nostalgic itch in what's left of my childhood brain
used to rent this on vhs from the local library as a kid
I had this on VHS as a kid. After the credits there was another movie but it was slide show with commentary about different species of dinos
I wasn’t expecting this animation to be so old that they didn’t even know how the dinosaurs died
Yea
Wow, I can't help but marvel at the stop motion, it is truly amazing.
The narrator sepped for a smoke breack during most of the action huh
Stop-motion takes a huge amount of effort. Someone earned their overtime with this one.
This was almost Dino Porn.
*let that sink in*
This was Dino porn until T-Rex cock blocked it.
Trex is playing cencoser simulator
Cockblockasaurus
4:30
And that kids, is how I met your mother- Edmontosaurus
While it is outdated, this is amazing nonetheless.
4:51-4:55 they were mating and then the t-Rex ruins it!
Happens all the time when hubby shows up.
I feel like u wanted to watch the dino porn ;-;
Cockblockasaurus
@@CrustyMcButternutsNice One Bruh!
I love this style of old dinosaur animation
7:58 That was so brutal
I don't care if this is outdated or inaccurate this animation is just incredible
outdated but still amazing!
J - TheSaur freertttdsqssd uuuupplkkjnnjyytfggg
same
Oh lord the stances were hilariously wrong xD
Still good though!
J - TheSaur yes
Just image how outdated our modern documentaries will look in 30 years
So apparently herbivores communicated by belching
Keith Olsen oh ._.
That's also how my family communicates.
*AAAAAAUUUUUUGGGHHHHH*
Keith Olsen 0
Well Gnu/Wildebeast, pigs and elephants do...
I thought I'd never find this, another piece of my childhood found :)
Omg ! I grow up watching this my grandmother would put this tap in the VHS and I would watch it over and over and over agin 💕 ❤
carnivores: rraaaaaa
herbivores: buuuuuuuuuuurp
carnivores: rAraAAAAAAAAA
hERbivoreS:BUUUUUUUUUUURRRRP
mammals: HEEEEEEEEEEEEEElP
Raaa,
Burrrrp.
RAAAAAARGH
BURRRRRRPUH
SUUEEAAAKKKK
I remember this. More enjoyable than most dino docs made today.
This is my favorite fight
T Rex versus triceratops
Ohhhhhhhhhh man
These guys are all my favorites
T. rex and triceratops is my favorite
Triceratops and t.rex are my first favorites when I was a little kid so they are number 1st
Really impressive reconstructions and dinosaur behavior in this for 1981.
3:01 when your mate tells you what character you are then playing a game
Species:
Tyrannosaurus Rex
Triceratops
Edmontosaurus
Ankylosaurus
Ornithomimus
09:02 first time I've seen this part, my Dinosaurs of the Jurassic tape cuts to 09:27
Thanks for uploading this
Brandon Ivy Wait, _that's_ the name of the tape?!
I've been puzzling over the name for over a decade!
I had that tape too as a child. I too was wondering about when The REX was about to Strike at the Edmontosaurus. But there was something else that wasn't seen besides The Tyrannosaurus REX having it's last meal. 7:59 to 8:16 That scene with The Mother Triceratops with the Ornithomimus was also cut too. This is probably on a DVD on some website somewhere. All 11 & a Half Minutes of it completely.
yup, same here. kinda funny how they trimmed out the violent parts but the edmontasauruses mounting each other was perfectly acceptable.
Really, that was in my tape... i was in Illinois at the time do you think it's cause there were Canadian versions?
I tell you, stop motion dinosaurs are always fun to watch, no matter their appearance.
Wow ! This video is uploaded on my birthday and I love Dinosaurs !
Sneha Nad how cool
i love dinosaurs too my friend they are my all time favorite animal of all timme
Sneha Nad True. Dinosaurs are my favorite animals
It's my Birthday today.
I like the suddendly falling down tyrannosaur: " Gasp! I am becoming extinct ! Raarghhh! "
4:57 when you at your girls house and her dad walks in.
I wish that dinosaur documentaries were still like this instead of CGI.
Imagine redoing this on "saurian "
we need saurian's map and models in sfm so this can happen
Giovane Pereira Freitas Or The Isle
Gallimimus=Ornithomimus
Acrocanthosaurus=Tyrannosaurus Rex
Stegosaurus=Ankylosaurus
Shantungosaurus=Edmontosaurus
Diabloceratops=Triceratops
Super Mario Logan Fan Ew,no Saurian is more accurate.
Tyrannosaurus rex says the guy who’s profile pic is not accurate at all
@@sissyfarabi9819 but saurian is more accurate than the isle....
I'm getting exhausted just thinking about the amount of time and effort that went into this stop motion animation. Takes some serious patience!
Fantastic quality!
I wish this were two hours long!
Is this how dinosaurs hug? 4:33
@Muhammad Lo Why does everyone have that picture as profile pic? I see that pic everywhere?!
Omg I saw this back when I was a kid!!!! I never thought I'd see it again!!!!! THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who else thought the triceratops was gonna poop
4:55 "keep my good christian minecraft sever G-rated!"
Isaac Zelinski hahaha
What its called mating every thing dose it!!! Your duscusting
LOL
foxyGamer!:D
Try to find 'joke' in the dictionary.
YepTube Cringe why
ITS REALLY WELL DONE
This is great I love old school stop motion Dinosaurs 🐊
New comment: (6 1/2 years later) Fun Fact: 5:06 It took 10, 20 maybe 30 years of scientific update to realize that T.Rexes could swim if they wanted to. Having hollow air filled bones & powered hind limbs makes Tyrannosaurs l like T.Rex very effective swimmers.
I love vintage documentaries
This must have taken very long to make and record, can someone upscale it to 60/FPS please?
It won't look good. That's why films are 24/25 fps and should stay that way.
There's something so charming and handmade about stop motion
This better be on a DVD on some website somewhere. All 11 & a Half Minutes of it completely.
Download it and save it to flash drive!
Titan52berg Or how about this? www.oldies.com/product-view/2742FD.html?c=gbase&gclid=Cj0KCQjwjbveBRDVARIsAKxH7vn_iy2SidlaZJp2ZrRX6LpRK1c2bSPjvB-b7F7UqHydaVkK40fjNmQaAtFYEALw_wcB
The effort put into this is amazing
64000000 years ago this movie was made
this is from september 1 2016 are you dumb?????????????
This was made in 1981 dumbasses
King 75 it's a joke, dumbass
Not everyone understands the sarcasm...
This movie was made in 1981
Very good stop motion
Interesting the Rexy chose to backdown and the Trike actually didn't gore the Rexy
The animations, texture, and lighting reminds me of the older Godzilla movies.
I adore it!
Okay, while most of the info here is heavily outdated, and some of the designs of the creatures (most notably the early mammal) are really cringy, this was pretty entertaining to watch.
The stop animation is fantastic, the narration is good, and the soundtrack ain't half-bad either. 8.5/10
This was years ago.
Megumin I'm aware of that, thank you!
The "mammal" looks like if a possum and Gumby had a kid. :/
To be fair, this movie was made a long time ago so we should cut it some slack.
Why cringy?
The sounds really fit to the dinosaurs in here
Heh heh... At 2:44 T Rex's face resembles an old witch!
3:13 adorable Edmontosaurus
I wouldn’t say adorable…
2:28
Rexy: Imma get that booty!
Anky: You wish!
Rexy: I'll show you!
BAM!
Rexy: Auuuuuuuu u!
Anky: Sorryyy...
Rexy: All right!
But realistically, the Ankylosaurus' club tail was WAYY larger than it was shown in this film, and could also break any bone on the T-Rex's body with just one slow hit
love this video!
I love it!
This video was like a "too real" acid trip.
oops the Idea of the title and the timing is on the wrong way. if it's supposed to be 1 million years before the extinction of the dinosaurs it would be 66, 000, 000 years ago instead 1 million years before 65 million years ago the end of the dinosaurs
Dinosaurs actually did die out 66 million years ago, NOT 65 :)
Henry Scott Actually it was 65.5 million years ago but everybody always just says 65 never 66 or 64
ok......
MrWanapon I was replying to Henry Scott not you. You were actually more accurate and close enough.
ok
and thank you :)
It took me a while to find this and God does this bring back memories. Thank you so much for uploading this!
10:26
10.000 species of birds
6.000 species of mammel.
Dinosaurs still a bit more succesfull ;)
Exactly, the dinosaurs were closely related to birds, and birds today are like dinosaurs, and even the word "raptor" in Velociraptor, Utahraptor, Oviraptor, etc., means, bird of prey.... :/
Dinosaurs existed longer than all of them.
@@talkingdoge1397 they were not "closely realted" birds ARE a type of dinosaur
Such a know-it-all.
saying that there is 6000 dinosaurs but only 600 are confirmed!!
that was awsome , the backgrouds are amazing the figures everything
Well somebody was a Rankin/Bass Fan, I was waiting for Bumble to shimmy down a cliff.
Oh god the our old dinosaur knowledge days XD
I STILL remember when we called Dinosaurs “lizard like” XD
t-rex is a cockblocking knob head!
Noah Siffin but he did get a kill
Luke 777 Which is the Edmontosaur (Edmontosaurus)
Pokemonperfect Choi the duck billed dinosaur
That ran away into the water
Luke 777 And probably Edmontosaurus can swim.
I love this short film when I was a kid. Sigh this bring me back so much memories
7:21 triceratops mind: *HOLY SHIT! OH FUCK!*
7:59 AHHH SH- AAARK! AAARK! AAARK! AAARK!
I loved the part with the ankylosaurus.It shows how powerful the ankylosaurus is.ankylosaurus
Is my favorite dinosaur ever.
Did anyone see the mating corinthasaurus at 4:55
Error sans It's not Corythosaurus. It's Edmontosaurus.
Anyway, I did
*EDMONTOSAURUS
Error sans yea dude that was point
Man this takes me back.
Yes, back when stop motion (and 2D animation) was still popular, and when Dinosaurs were believed to be real giant reptiles, and not as ugly bird like mutants with feathers.
4:55 your father you when he finds out that you are drunk and have sex at 13

That is very very specific
Is this comment based on your own experiance?

Superior stop motion work. It's nice to see this these days considering I wanted to do this for a living at one point and got quite good at it....but then CGI dashed my dreams on the rocky shores of reality.
Don't let it. You can still do it if you want to.
@@Mac14329 Oh. I kinda still do. I animated my wife's body pillow so that it crawled like an inch worm across the bedroom floor. When she saw it she said, 'Wow! You really are good at that'.
