They didn't even try
3 December 2022
I usually end up defending America most of the time on the Internet when they get slandered unrightfully so, but maybe when it comes to nature documentaries you Yanks should just give up

The depiction of Tylosaurus has not aged well though that's by all means the lesser sin

I get the guy watched Walking with Dinosaurs and wanted to make his own version out of excitement but this was embarrassing, You're supposed to making a version of a nature documentary with dinosaurs, this felt like a rejected spielberg script Bad CGI, but lets say I forgive that, why did they bother hiring these fake reenactments for fidning the fossils maybe spend more money on the Dinosaur CGI, you know, having more than 15 minutes of dinosaur screentime?

Don't say "perhaps they..", you're narrating the story, No grandiose music, fair enough you cannot afford an orchestra but my god the awful music like it's for a budget Avatar movie, the use of the whimsical flute just makes me wince, am I waiting for a coming out story for a fish The editor is awful, just compare the Sea episode scene from Walking with Dinosaurs to this.

What is aboslutely the worst sin of all is that you can tell that they didn't even try, they purposely tried to stretch the footage as much as possible, there's no REAL passion behind it, it's barely moving cgi that's been stretched and reused, either the director didn't care or he hired people that didn't care, but the director has responsibility in the end.

There was no passion for this. No love. It was uninspired and if the director DID really care he would have made sure to not release this incomplete work.
