Some dino thing
Currently watching some dinosaur thing. Makes me want to watch “Evolution,” that movie with David Duchovny (sp? I used to know when I was reading Mulder/Krycek slash).
It’s some pretty interesting stuff and I can see why some authors are drawn to the idea of writing “Terra Nova” type stories. Unfortunately, I don’t have the knowledge base to draw from to write something like that. Well, I could write it. But it probably wouldn’t be any good ^_^ That or it would end up more like “Evolution” than “Walking With Dinosaurs.” Just a tiny bit of dino knowledge mixed with a healthy dose of hubris.
So if I ever write a time travel human/dino story, it’s gonna have to be some kind of parody/comedy story with everything totally over the top. Like, I don’t know, some guy screws up his time machine and ends up in the paleolithic where he has to deal with gigantic carnivores while trying to fix his machine. (Makes me think of that stupid Syfy movie with Joe Flanigan not being John Sheppard. I spent the whole movie gritting my teeth and asking God “Why are they so frickin’ stupid?” God did not reply.)
Anyways, I’m going to go watch “Evolution.” You should watch it too. It’s pretty hilarious.
