This is actually Bianker's favorite film and 22 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: I'd never seen it before, so she watched it often 23 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: as a kid from nineteen eighty eight? Is it Disney 24 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: I don't think so. It's Spielberg and George Lucas the producers, 25 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: executive producers. 26 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 2: And it's cartoon dinosaurs. 27 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: Cartoon dinosaurs. Yeah, animated dinosaurs. It was the highest grossing 28 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: animated film of its time. Yeah. 29 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 2: I seem to remember it being very sad. A dinosaur 30 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 2: is orphaned. 31 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: This start is very sad. I'll give it that. 32 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 2: But that's like a lot of those classic the Disney movies, 33 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 2: isn't it. They always start there has to be someone 34 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 2: being abandoned the forest or orphaned, like classic fables fairy tales. 35 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 1: And this is both because he sadly loses his mum 36 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: and then he's lost in the wilderness of the prehistoricus 37 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: Stine wrinkle. 38 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: Normally it's the dad that buys it. In these movies. 39 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 2: It's always the dead dad. 40 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: Well, I guess dad has already bitten the dust, I 41 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: say on somewhere along the line. So that part was sad. 42 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: But and I know this is an important movie for 43 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people of that generation because even our 44 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: audio producer who I got the audiograms from, started crying 45 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: when she was watching the YouTube clips of it, reminding 46 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: herself of. 47 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: Being so is the orphan dinosaur, and then he meets 48 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 2: he meets four of the dinosaurs. I seem to remember Spike, 49 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 2: Ducky yep, I don't remember the other two. 50 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: This is where the movie lost me. I hated the 51 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: ensemble characters, but the dinosaurs, four other dinosaurs. Littlefoot is 52 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: the main character. He's great, fine, he's the orphan fella. 53 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: He's the orphaned fella. His friends who he meets along 54 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: the way, and some of the worst characters in animated history. 55 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: Ducky is so annoying, Mono Ducky is so annoying. Petree 56 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: is this bat type pterodactyl thing. He's even more annoying 57 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: than Ducky. Actually, are they annoying? Annoying how they're talking 58 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: like babies but they are young. 59 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 2: That's offending here. 60 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's about matship, Yes, and Petree, who's the flying 61 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: one can't do anything for himself.
