The title (singular) is still a working one, as is a round logo showing a
dinosaur in silhouette with a red meteor streaming through the sky. The
film opens close-up on a rock and as the camera pulls back we can see
that it is a meteor hurtling in the direction of the sun. Then begins an
opening sequence that is nothing short of gob-smacking. It shows an
amazing array of dinosaur life interacting with each other. All the while
the action centres around an egg wbhich is stolen by a dinosaur after its
mother is scared away and lost, dropped in a river and picked up by a
flying dinosur before it is dropped on an island. Anyway, an Iguanadon
hatches from the egg and is brought up by a pack of lemurs on the
island. Then the metor hits and the Iguanadon heads with the lemurs to
mainland and when he gets there (he has never seen other dinosaurs
before) the film is a journey to escape the devastation of the meteor.
Although the dinosaurs are voiced, this in NOT a musical comedy and
they don't break into song. It is actually quite a thrilling drama. Disney
was careful not to make it a film of extinction, but of hope. The CGI is
beyond description. You will know what I mean when it opens around
Christmas-time. Everyone who has seen its progress has been
astounded. The dinosaurs make Jurassic Park look like crude
claymation. And the opening scenes and the music and awe-inspiring.
This has definitely set new boundaries for animation.
