-I'm not gun genius, but how hard would it be to hit a huge dinosaur with a 20mm sniper rifle? and if you did, a round that big (and that pack a small boom) would cause damage, no?

You make a good point. Some merc he is if he can't hit a Spinosaurus with that thing. But if he did hit it and kill it, it would be a 15 minute movie and thus serve no point to exist. In real life, the guys with the guns survive when facing dinosaurs, but in Hollywood, all you need to do is run fast. >:(. I wish he had killed the Spino, T-rex is the coolest and the Spino was a dumb attempt at topping it. Thanks a lot Jack Horner. (I used to be a dino-nut, in case no one knew) - Gunmaster45

I agree, T-rex for the win man! But really, you saw what the rifle did to a light aircraft in the movie, so what would it do to a Spino? Anyhow, you hear him fire it like 4 times, in awfully rapid succesion. I'm thinking that firing a 20mm rifle that fast might hurt one's shoulder....

Fuck the spino, fuck it in its ear.Oliveira 01:11, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

I was disappointed that they made the Spinosaurus into the main villain for this movie, but not quite sure I have that hostile a reaction to it. -MT2008

Spinosaurus WAS the king of dinosaurs

You guys are forgetting that we erroneously thought that the T-Rex was the king of the carnivores, but it wasn't. The ONLY EXISTING skeleton of a Spinosaurus (which was WAY bigger than any T-Rex) for decades was in the National Museum of Natural History ... in Nazi Germany BEFORE World War Two. It was obliterated (along with other priceless archeological treasures) by American and British bombing raids. So only recently archeologists unearthed other Spinosaurus bones, it can RIGHTFULLY take it's place as the dinosaur that kicked T-Rex's ass. So we're wrong. Not history.

I would have to disagree with you this time, MPM2008, even though Spinosaurus was bigger then Tyrannosaurus Rex, it would still have a better chance at losing the fight. Tyrannosaurus Rex had a pretty good size brain cavity, was stocky and muscular, and most of all, had one of the greatest bite forces of any land animal ever to live on this planet, it's jaw was capable of cutting through flesh, and crushing bone. So chances are, once the T.Rex bit down on the Spino's neck, it would have crushed it's neck, killng or atleast paralzying it.--Alienqueen11 07:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I haven't paid much attention to paleontology for about 10 years now, but didn't Spinosaurus have fairly fragile jaws and teeth? My understanding is that it ate lots of fish when it wasn't scavenging.

As far as T-Rex goes, whether or not it was a predator is (I understand) still debatable, but it was certainly FAR better equipped to fight in hand-to-hand combat than a Spinosaurus. The fact that the Spinosaurus might have had an extra couple of meters length seems irrelevent; it would be like a basketball player fighting a professional wrestler.

BTW, I think it's cool that so many other IMFDB members are into dinosaurs. -MT2008
