Not only with the visual excitement of actually seeing "live" dinosaurs, but with the current science in general. They're the Pixar of Dino-Docu's. Love them, own them, re-watch them often.<BR/><BR/>And - Just because I love to spread the Dino-Geek stuff - check out a behind the scenes bit, which includes the best Holloween costume *Ever!*<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtfMIiinJso" REL="nofollow">Clicky.</A>FoldedSouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11132722776280407298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-13564331902789919142007-06-08T21:42:00.000-03:002007-06-08T21:42:00.000-03:00Yes, I think he did Walking with Dinosaurs for the...Yes, I think he did Walking with Dinosaurs for the US market... for some reason (metric system?) all these shows were redubbed, and to create transitions to commercial, vignettes with experts were sometimes added as well (I know that's true for Prehistoric Beasts).Siskoidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266365376486695812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-20265601933089339272007-06-08T20:37:00.000-03:002007-06-08T20:37:00.000-03:00Didn't one of the "Walking with..." shows have VO ...Didn't one of the "Walking with..." shows have VO by Avery Brooks?

Dinosaurs<BR/>-...Prehistoric Beasts (it's the original Kenneth Brannagh voice-over. I'm just saying because the US version had Stockard Channing and I found a woman's voice better suited to the motherly story of us mammals)<BR/>-...with Monsters (BEFORE the dinosaurs)<BR/>-...Cavemen<BR/>-The Future Is Wild (animals from the future based on possible evolution)<BR/>-I also recommend Voyage to the Planets since it's a CGI BBC documentary (actually called Space Odyssey in the UK) showing how humans might explore a large part of the solar system and what those environments might look like.<BR/><BR/>You do well to ask since it'll take me a while to get to them in DVD Tales (at 5 items a pop, it's currently set to run in 80 parts, eep!).Siskoidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266365376486695812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-9855503195793993092007-06-08T14:39:00.000-03:002007-06-08T14:39:00.000-03:00Oh, and poor Big Al, by the way.

The <I>Allosaurus</I> special showed up in our TiVo cue recently and it's one of his favorites.<BR/><BR/>I suppose I could find out easily enough on Amazon, but I'm here so I'll ask you. Is the whole <I>Walking with Dinosaurs</I> series available on DVD or just this special?Michael Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12514945570212261283noreply@blogger.com
