Quick correction! For the show “Dinosaucers” I had mistakenly referred to Allo as the villain. When he is, in fact, a protagonist of the series. Now that the show is on my radar, I hope to return to it again in future videos!
Tbf there was a Stan Winstonesque design since the poster for the JP ride biting on the logo Also park builder and TLW games had Allosaurus 'on them Ngl those designs were incredibly better than BABR's
I love The Isle's design. I remember the first time seeing it in one of Anthomnia's videos. It had this gorgeous orange color that reminded me of some of the male theropods from Dinosaur Planet. My favorite depiction of Allosaurus is from Path of Titans though, the fact that it has lips is what tipped the balance in its favor over The Isle's Allosaurus.
The Isle's allo was my pride and joy when I was on the team. Fred made a perfect design and Bryan and I spent a lot of time getting the animations and aspects perfect
you guys did great when it comes to the allo. I miss playing it on packed servers, but I am excited to play it again when it finally comes out in evrima
Me personally, the Ballad of Big Al Allosaurus will always be THE Allosaurus for me. Jurassic World Evolution and Prehistoric Kingdom’s Allosaurus are also amazing designs.
@@WinterroSP all dinos are upscaled like 1.5x times and some of them are made even bigger for the sake of the game I suppose, Thalassodromeus for example is huge in this game even for that 1.5x standard.
@@Bleghspread most aren't upscaled 1.5x, but yeah thal is the biggest outlier, along with bars, eotrike, spino, sarco and a few others to a lesser extent
Before allo,that was going to be a torvosaurus,thats why is so big,but they decided to do the allo instead because it was a more popular and known dino
To me the WWD Allo will always hold a spot in my heart. That may be why Allosaurus remains one of if not my favorite dinosaur. One version of Allosaurus I wanna bring up is from a short film called Hell Creek, weird choice for a name given this is in the Jurassic not the Cretaceous but eh, this Allosaurus is notable for including small quill like coverings on the Allo's neck. Which as far as I know no other media has depicted Allo with any kind of covering. So it has that distinction. Plus their Allo display some bird like qualities like turning its head sideways to look at something below.
It was The Isle that made me fall in love with allosaurus. From a full realism server which had allowed a pack of them- then later bloodline realated only packs of the same number amount which were extremely aggressive towards one another. My pack had existed for a couple of real life years. Generation after generations with ups and downs and legendary eras. It was so true and close to my heart that allosaurus became my favorite dinosaur alongside Shantungosaurus who'd earn their place simply by having a sentimental value and not visual favoritism. Still can't believe i took an egg for next generation... parents gave us joke nicknames of Oogie, Boogie, and I was Banana... she led a amazing full life, earned her place as next dominant female and brought back our status of being a highly feared pack. One which would take on apexes just like our original roots. ♡
Honorable mention goes to the Allo from Dino Crisis 2 I remember having a tough time beating them back in the day but they were super cool and I liked the blue design too :3
The When Dinosaurs Roamed America depiction is actually one of my personal favourites. In addition, what you said about the Jurassic Fight Club design is how I feel about essentially all of the creatures in it. Their shapes and features are widely inaccurate but their colour palettes are surprisingly admirable.
Yeah, JFC's models are weird to say the least, but damn it, some of the colors and patterns almost redeem them. The male Majungasaurus, regardless of accuracy, is my favorite depiction of the animal, or at least in my top 3.
I think what surprises me the most is just how relatively recent the crests are implemented with the Allosaurus designs. I've always seen the crest on its head as iconic as the tail of a stegosaurus and yet even as recent as some 70s and 80s depictions we see Allosaurus's shown without them. It's crazy to me.
Quick correction as I did watch some of the show. In Dinosaucers, Allo was the leader of the heroine faction. To make an analogy as such types of toys were popular at the time, he was the Optimus Prime of the group opposite the main villain whom was a Tyrannosaurus. If I recall correctly their was a device the heroes had to turn themselves back into the Mesozoic styled dinosaurs for a spell, but they are still themselves mentally, so that's why there was seemingly 2 designs for him. Love the video and the series so far, great work!
All of these are iconic, The Isle's allo is still great looking. My next favorite is the Path of titans one. Next for me would be big al, even though it looks terrible, it still gives me nostalgia. I agree with u, the life on our planet one was bugging me when i saw it. I saw more crocodile rather than eagle. Which i don't like at all.
16:25 fun fact this allosaurus model is actually a remodel of two older allosaurus designs back when the isle was in its progression days 2016-2018, one has spikes at the bak of its head and tip of its tail while the other has these huge long crest that looks like bunny ears and it has all these spikes running down its back.
You did in fact miss one that I know of from a fairly obscure show my parents once showed me. The show is called ‘Sliders’ and it’s about people “sliding” between different alternate dimensions and visiting various versions of earth. In one episode the characters find themselves in a nature preserve for resurrected dinosaurs and spend most of the episode trying not to get eaten by an Allosaurus. If I’m not mistaken it’s the only dinosaur that they encounter too I was kinda hoping it’d show up here, but I guess it’s just too obscure. Just thought I’d share the info
Cool @@DinoGuy8 but I wish Allosaurus was in the Dino Dan franchise and that Jurassic World Evolution 2 had more movie canon Allosaurus skins that would be totally awesome don't you think?
Hey! Awesome video, and thank you for the dinosaur king lore! It was a big part of my childhood, and so I’m glad other people have seen it too. I had no idea it was an arcade game first!
For how often Allosaurus has shown up in media, we haven’t had a truly good depiction of it yet. Then again, it took PhP for Tyrannosaurus to be done Justice.
Admittedly, going in I had little hope that Allo from Dinosaucers would be on the list given the show's obscurity these days... Needless to say, my little heart sung! Thank you so much for the mention! Not the villain, but the hero team's leader actually. :) Great vid! Thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the different interpretations of this awesome species!
@@DinoGuy8 Oh, absolutely give it a shot sometime if you enjoy retro toons! :D It's a good blend of action and comedy with slice of life/sitcom vibes, and has some hilarious one-liners!!
The Allo has always been my favorite. I love most of its modern designs. What I like most is the idea that its a sauropod hunter, similar to a lion hunting buffalo. Very few medias presented this though. Can ye do one for Triceratops soon? (No rush!)
WWD rendition is a little outdated but if we apply the colour scheme to modern interpretation it's going to be a stunner. Imagine if the team behind Prehistoric Planet went out and do Jurassic-themed series...
Allosaurus is such an aweosme dinosaur, and am so glad you made this video on it so cool ❤ My favorite allosaurus design will always be Land Of Lost from 2009, excellent design personally 👍.
Allo from Dinosaucers is actually one of the main heroes of the show & the leader of the Dinosaucers team. The villain is Ghengis Rex the T. rex of the Tyrannos group.
Behaviour-wise my fave is The Ballad of Big Al's portrayal, design-wise, it's the ones from Dinosaur Revolution, Path off Titans and The Isle that are my favourites.
We’ve known the shape of Allosaurus’ skull since the diagram of aggregate material was released alongside Madsens osteology in 1977, so I’m not going to let early documentaries off the hook too easily. Especially because the skull of Allosaurus is highly aesthetic with a gentle elegant backwards sweep to it. It’s design in the Isle and to a lesser extent POT reflect this very well. It’s also why I don’t hate the LooP design because it nails the skull shape. Jurassic World and a few other modern media entries use Big Al 2’s skull as a model, which is unfortunate because it’s been diagentically deformed to appear boxier and snaggle toothed. The adult Jurassic World allosaurus also has arms that are too small, which is a defining feature of the animal and is frequently undersold in its depictions. Although most allosaurs come in between 20-30 feet, there’s multiple fragmentary specimens that indicate a much larger upper range to Allosaurus size. Saurophaganax is it’s own can of worms, but Bakker’s Monster of Masonville, Cope’s Epanterias, and a femur from Cleveland Lloyd all indicate an animal coming in at at least 11 meters and likely more. None of these specimens contain any diagnostic characters that would refer them to Saurophaganax, and are A. fragilis in all ways except their tremendous size.
What about the Jurassic World Evolution 1 and 2 Allosaurus?? They had to do an Adult version of the Fallen Kingdm DLC Allosaurus for the game that looks really good, in JWE2 they change the position of the hands to more accurate.
Land Before Time's Allosaurus was definitely odd. I always thought it was a Yangchuanosaurus on its design back then. Definitely not much of an Allosaurus.
My favourite Allosaurus design is Walking with Dinosaurs, especially The Balled of Big Al which made it my favourite Dinosaur. Allosaurus has appeared everywhere except for Prehistoric Planet and also fun fact, Allosaurus was Ray Harryhausen’s favourite Dinosaur. By the way you missed out a couple of other franchises, Allosaurus appeared in Dinosaur Train and although not the Animal itself but a fictional relative. There was a character in King Kong Eacapes called Gorosaurus who crossed over into the Godzilla franchise for Destroy All Monsters and he was a fictional member of the Allosaurus genus.
Honestly, I always considered Gwangi a Tyrannosaurus, as Harryhausen already did an Allosaurus in One Million Years B.C., and Gwangi looks nothing like it.
Hoo boy, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs brought back memories of the Arcade game. Yes, there is a comic (readable online, too), the Capcom game (maybe you can find it playable online, too) and the cartoon is even watchable on RUclips.
I'm a little surprised you didn't review the Allosaurus from Jurassic World Evolution 2 but then again, the probably took the model straight from the movie and you covered that. Anywho, still a fun dino park builder if you're looking for that middle school nostalgia again!
Actually, they didn't. Allosaurus was first released in JWE1's Fallen Kingdom DLC, so Frontier had had to make their own design. The BABR/Dominion Allosaurus was released in JWE2's Malta DLC. IMO, Frontier's design should've been the official adult Allosaurus. It actually looks like a grown up version of the Fallen Kingdom design without ripping off Papo's Allo figure.
This is a great series, would love to see you take on sauropods in future. Brontosaurus/Apatosaurus & Brachiosaurus seem to be the most common, though Diplodocus has an interesting evolution too.
You can find more about Cadillacs and Dinosaurs under its original title of "Xenozoic Tales" by Mark Schultz. It was renamed as Cadillacs and Dinos from the Xenezoic comic book series as more digestible title for the 90's animated series.
while I'm already very familiar with most of these I really enjoyed this video and I'm super excited to see more of this series! Will be checking out the rest of your videos :)), also should you ever run out of decently represented animals you could try and to it by group, for example you could have a video dedicated to "under-represented" chasmosaurines so you can cover PoT's eotriceratops or planet dinosaur's chasmosaurus also in regards to PoT's allosaurus being too big, it may very well be adjusted in the future as metriacanthosaurus and camptosaurus had their sizes adjusted very recently
Xenozoic Tales, otherwise known as Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, gave all the dinosaurs (slithers) strange names. An Allosaurus is called a cutter. The main character, Jack Tenrec, had a juvenile cutter named Hermes (he was basically like a half-tame attack dog).
Very cool vid. Man, I would watch that Dinosaucers cartoon early on Sunday mornings. Allo is the leader of the Dinosaucers (good guys), and the bad guys were the Tyrannos led of course by a Tyrannosaurus. They had weapons and whatnot that when would devolves back into regular dinos. Both groups had a variety of dinos in them.
I remember watching Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. I don’t think it stayed on the air for long as I only saw one or two episodes, but even just watching it a few times it stuck with me. Cool, weird little cartoon
aaa I clicked on this video so quickly when I saw this video, allosaurus is by far my favourite dinosaur, my favourite iteration being the isles allosaurus and the juvi one from jurassic world fallen kingdom!
I always really like the Dinamation Allosaurus as a kid, the video of it in Dinosaur Adventure for DOS was really compelling, it was like looming over the camera and making a horrible screech. Don't know if animatronics count as "appearing in media" but those things got shipped all over the place and were in tons of TV specials and edutainment games
Funfact: the carnivores dino hunter allosaurus was the first dinosaur created for the game, it was actually just a test dinosaur so thats why it doesnt look like an allo, even the animation files call it "raptor"
Props to the Valley of Gwangi depiction for showing the Allosaurus in a more horizontal posture while moving. It's like to get the model moving, it had to stand like that. Also do check out the 2001 Lost World. It's like a film split into a few parts and is pretty good.
The Allo saurus from Carnivores Dinosaur Hunter was supposed to be a raptor, due its texture file been named "Rptr73". But Action Forms decided to use the jurassic park build for the carnivores they decided to change its name to "Allosaurus".

Quick correction!

Now that the show is on my radar, I hope to return to it again in future videos!
You keep telling me i know, but i dont, that is a problem.
@@VicariousReality7what?
I can’t believe it took this long for Allosaurus to appear in the Jurassic films.
?
It appeared in fallen kingdom
@@squidwardnosewarts that’s what I meant. I’m surprised it didn’t appear in the franchise sooner.
And yet, It is poorly depicted.
Tbf there was a Stan Winstonesque design since the poster for the JP ride biting on the logo
Also park builder and TLW games had Allosaurus 'on them
Ngl those designs were incredibly better than BABR's
TFW the film series named "Jurassic" features the apex predator of the cretaceous far more than that of the Jurassic

It's easily the best Allosaurus design in any video game, and one of the best in any media.

Me personally, the Ballad of Big Al Allosaurus will always be THE Allosaurus for me. Jurassic World Evolution and Prehistoric Kingdom’s Allosaurus are also amazing designs.
I honestly had the idea that the POT allosaurus is smaller than its irl counter part (they have a skeleton in a nearby museum)
Dinonychus is as tall as a human in POT, Allo is quite big in that game.

Honorable mention goes to the Allo from Dino Crisis 2
I remember having a tough time beating them back in the day but they were super cool and I liked the blue design too :3
the Lost World (2001) Allosaur was also shown in Walking With Monsters, at the end where Euparkeria somehow evolved into Allosaurus lmao
It was, but also wasn't. The head is drastically different. And they use Big Al model the next shot.
@@goj1_lag00nWell they changed the allosaurus old model of Walking with Dinosaur.
The many interpretations of Allosaurus do share one thing in common:
They have never seen such bullsh*t before.
The stop motion of Gwangi is incredible. Looks more real than a lot of modern CGI, the Eohippus in stunning
agreed, classic stop motion is awesome even when it doesn't look real.
Its a shame that stop motion is a dying art in filmmaking. Everything is CGI nowadays and has been for a while
@@tenyearsinthejoint1 even if they used, mostly are only for parodying something
Has anybody compared hand drawn animated dinosaurs to the ones made through CGI?
@@tenyearsinthejoint1 there are a decent amount of animated films that use stop motion. Not enough in my opinion but they are out there.

Doesn't the Cerato scream like something out of a slasher film?
I absolutely LOVE this series! Seeing how each dinosaur has grown throughout the years is awesome! Love Allosaurus too!
I think what surprises me the most is just how relatively recent the crests are implemented with the Allosaurus designs.

Upset you missed Dino Crisis 2's Allo. Loved how it seemed to play with you rather than flat out attack
For how often Allosaurus has shown up in media, we haven’t had a truly good depiction of it yet. Then again, it took PhP for Tyrannosaurus to be done Justice.

I just noticed the Giganotosaurus figurine on the shelf in your background and I am delighted because I have the same one!! (I named her Janet)
Im so happy i found this video, im a lifelong dino nerd and i binged watched anything with dino's growing up. Earned a sub brother
The allosaurus is the most iconic dinosaur out there are you can't tell me otherwise

Dino Crisis 2’s Allosaurus was really cool, especially when you unlock it to play as after you beat the game.
Great video that Brachiosaurus model behind you looks brilliant

Imagine if the team behind Prehistoric Planet went out and do Jurassic-themed series...
God damn! You even got Operation Genesis and Carnivores, you are really thorough with these videos!
I found a allosaurus video in my feed and was surprised to see fossil fighters be mentioned.
Good video BTW.
dont ever shorten your thoughts.... they are why i come here and listen while i work
You should check out the trailers for the video game, The Lost Wild. Allosaurus looks terrifying in it, might be the main antagonist as well.
I can’t believe I forgot about that!
Allosaurus is such an aweosme dinosaur, and am so glad you made this video on it so cool ❤
My favorite allosaurus design will always be Land Of Lost from 2009, excellent design personally 👍.
Where's the Allosaurus from the movie A Sound of Thunder? And the series sliders 1995!?🦖
Allo from Dinosaucers is actually one of the main heroes of the show & the leader of the Dinosaucers team.
The villain is Ghengis Rex the T. rex of the Tyrannos group.
You forgot, the allosaurus that appears very briefly in Gravity falls
what episode-
The isle v2 allo has been my favorite design of almost any therapod in games. It’s got a sleek elegance to it and the eyes remind me of a lion.
Behaviour-wise my fave is The Ballad of Big Al's portrayal, design-wise, it's the ones from Dinosaur Revolution, Path off Titans and The Isle that are my favourites.
I am so happy you did Fossil Fighters! I just wish you added Fran Sinclair from Dinosaurs.
We’ve known the shape of Allosaurus’ skull since the diagram of aggregate material was released alongside Madsens osteology in 1977, so I’m not going to let early documentaries off the hook too easily.

I'm still not convinced Saurophaganax wasn't just an unusual Allo.
What about the Jurassic World Evolution 1 and 2 Allosaurus?? They had to do an Adult version of the Fallen Kingdm DLC Allosaurus for the game that looks really good, in JWE2 they change the position of the hands to more accurate.
Better than Universal's design, that's for sure.
i find it so interresting listening to this guy talk about these type of stuff because its so relatable to listen to him speak.
Land Before Time's Allosaurus was definitely odd. I always thought it was a Yangchuanosaurus on its design back then. Definitely not much of an Allosaurus.

There's also an allosaurus in the sound of thunder in the movie, but in the book it was T rex
I hope you will also check out Paleo Pines. The dinos are designed to be really cutesy, but there's still accuracy and designing to be ogled.
Can you do carno next? Also love your content
You made me feel so old with that land of the lost description. There was also a 90s version of the show but I don’t think they had an allosaurus.
Honestly, I always considered Gwangi a Tyrannosaurus, as Harryhausen already did an Allosaurus in One Million Years B.C., and Gwangi looks nothing like it.
Hoo boy, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs brought back memories of the Arcade game.
Yes, there is a comic (readable online, too), the Capcom game (maybe you can find it playable online, too) and the cartoon is even watchable on RUclips.

Actually, they didn't. Allosaurus was first released in JWE1's Fallen Kingdom DLC, so Frontier had had to make their own design. The BABR/Dominion Allosaurus was released in JWE2's Malta DLC.
IMO, Frontier's design should've been the official adult Allosaurus. It actually looks like a grown up version of the Fallen Kingdom design without ripping off Papo's Allo figure.
There’s a guy who’s remaking Jurassic Park builder.
This is a great series, would love to see you take on sauropods in future. Brontosaurus/Apatosaurus & Brachiosaurus seem to be the most common, though Diplodocus has an interesting evolution too.

First time seeing one of your vids and I enjoyed it Im cooking and when u said the video its almost over I was like wth no way 22 mins went that fast
1:42 it's funny how you called them tail draggers while showing a clip of Gwangi not dragging his tail.
Finally I can sleep Happily that the Jurassic Lion gets a video 😌
Dinosaur Expedition Born Free was also released in the USA partially as a movie called Return of the dinosaurs it was my first exposure to anime
the interesting thing about Ark is the character in the lore that writes and draws the dossiers classifies all the dinosaurs as their own species
A Lystrosaurus video would be great, love the content!
Super glad ya covered this animal cuz Allosaurus is one of my top 5 prehistoric animals 2nd to Tyrannosaurus Rex.
You’ve missed “Planet of the Dinosaurs”, "Dino Hunter: Deadly Shores” and “Dinosaur Train” for their design interpretations.
Dino Crisis 2 had an allosaurus design that I think looks very cool
while I'm already very familiar with most of these I really enjoyed this video and I'm super excited to see more of this series! Will be checking out the rest of your videos :)), also should you ever run out of decently represented animals you could try and to it by group, for example you could have a video dedicated to "under-represented" chasmosaurines so you can cover PoT's eotriceratops or planet dinosaur's chasmosaurus
also in regards to PoT's allosaurus being too big, it may very well be adjusted in the future as metriacanthosaurus and camptosaurus had their sizes adjusted very recently
Xenozoic Tales, otherwise known as Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, gave all the dinosaurs (slithers) strange names. An Allosaurus is called a cutter. The main character, Jack Tenrec, had a juvenile cutter named Hermes (he was basically like a half-tame attack dog).
My take on the Allosaurus Saurophaganax thing is Allosaurus is like a black bear and Saurophaganax is like a grizzly bear.
You forgot the allosaurus from the TV series Sliders
Very cool vid. Man, I would watch that Dinosaucers cartoon early on Sunday mornings. Allo is the leader of the Dinosaucers (good guys), and the bad guys were the Tyrannos led of course by a Tyrannosaurus. They had weapons and whatnot that when would devolves back into regular dinos. Both groups had a variety of dinos in them.
I bet looking at the T. rex would take an entire week if Allosaurus was this long lol
Broken Jaw is the real giga chad
the isle is so underrated imo, glad to see it get some recognition here
one game I enjoy that had a good Allosaurus is Zoo tycoon dino digs.
Im not gonna say that the big one in jurassic world franchise is a saurophaganax in full size not an allosaurus :))
I remember watching Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. I don’t think it stayed on the air for long as I only saw one or two episodes, but even just watching it a few times it stuck with me. Cool, weird little cartoon
aaa I clicked on this video so quickly when I saw this video, allosaurus is by far my favourite dinosaur, my favourite iteration being the isles allosaurus and the juvi one from jurassic world fallen kingdom!
I will die on the hill that saurophaganax is literally just a fully grown allosaurus, and there is no argument that it isn't.
nice video could you do Edmontosaurus?
My favourite is planet dinosaurs rendition of allosaurus
I always really like the Dinamation Allosaurus as a kid, the video of it in Dinosaur Adventure for DOS was really compelling, it was like looming over the camera and making a horrible screech. Don't know if animatronics count as "appearing in media" but those things got shipped all over the place and were in tons of TV specials and edutainment games
Funfact: the carnivores dino hunter allosaurus was the first dinosaur created for the game, it was actually just a test dinosaur so thats why it doesnt look like an allo, even the animation files call it "raptor"
My state Dino!!
Props to the Valley of Gwangi depiction for showing the Allosaurus in a more horizontal posture while moving. It's like to get the model moving, it had to stand like that.
Also do check out the 2001 Lost World. It's like a film split into a few parts and is pretty good.
Love ur nod to Robert t. Bakkee with the hat!👍🏿
Gwangi is an allosaurus?
man oh man i miss Jurassic Park Builder I'm quit you and have played it for most of my life and is the most nostalgic thing on earth
Good god. The Isle's Allo, especially it's sound design, is S tier.
Cadillacs and dinosaurs is also known as xenozoic tales by mark Shultz! The artwork of his comics give far more appealing look to the beast!
The Allo saurus from Carnivores Dinosaur Hunter was supposed to be a raptor, due its texture file been named "Rptr73". But Action Forms decided to use the jurassic park build for the carnivores they decided to change its name to "Allosaurus".
8:44 I feel like there's a movie reference to be made here.
Extra points to this video for mentioning Dinosaur King, Jurassic Park Builder and Jurassic World: The Game
