This can't be bad surely. Voiced by Morgan Freeman and produced by Steven Spielberg. Thanks for the heads up.

The CGI looks a bit ropey, but that seems to be the case with pretty much all dinosaur stuff, since there are no real reference points for how they moved and behaved.

How has Stephen Spielberg put his name to this, considering even his original JP, decades ago, had better effects than most of the trailer!

Still blows my mind that the time difference between when Stegosaurus lived and T-Rex lived is greater than the time difference between T-Rex and now...

Not that ground breaking seeing as Prehistoric Planet (with David Attenborough) came first, or second if you count Walking With Dinosaurs.

Never seen it, just pointing out that it had been done before.

I don't think it showed the end of the dinosaurs/asteroid strike though.

The trailers for PP looks very good if not better in my opinion.

Good, but a little dry and gave me wicked munchies.

You could also count Andy's Dinosaur Adventures, which technically qualifies as they used a lot of B-Roll footage that was omitted from WWD...

Was decent enough, not on par with some of the previous ones I've watched and liked that it didn't seem to reuse assets from other shows with a different story told over the told like we've been getting with the nature docs of late.
