New research debunks the dinosaur's roar

Do you guys still want Jurassic Park movies to be 100% scientifically accurate

This is a stupid thing to ask because if the movies were 100% scientifically accurate there wouldn't be any damn dinosaurs. You cannot extract DNA from fossils because its half life is tiny compared to the millions of years the fossils have existed.

I was joking as I pointed out before. Shouldn't have had to but here we are :p

Dinosaurs are serious fucking business.

You were defending a blockbuster movie

I wasn't, though.

I reread my post and I came off real harsh, wasn't my intent. Was trying to joke off about how silly it is to ask for 100% accuracy for a movie about Dinos in modern times.
 
God Cassowaries sound freaky.

Now imagine what the hell an animal as large as Tyrannosaurus would sound like.

Clarke: we also needed to look at alligators and crocodiles as the closest cousins to dinosaurs.

Wertheimer: Well, I have actually heard alligators bellow and make a terrific noise.

Clarke: Well, exactly, and that bellow is a closed-mouth sound. So when we think of our T. rex, we don't need to imagine just simple cooing. But there are a variety of generally low frequency sounds that are produced in this way.
So dinosaurs still definitely sounded terrifyingly awesome. Cool.
 
Hardly surprising. Bring on the giant cassowaries.

The people who inevitably complain about the new research probably don't remember that the JP animals weren't genetically pure.
 
New Research: Dinosaurs were actually the size of birds, the bones since found are only large today due to years of growing in dirt.
 
I knew it. I knew it man. Lizards don't roar, bark, squeak, or nothing. If dinosaurs made any sounds, they would probably be subdued or be more like bird calls.
