Brian, how do I submit a video to be considered for posting here? I tried “contact us” link, but every time I try to send, the darn thing is stuck at the submission process with no end in sight. I want to submit a hilarious video review of a movie called Tammy and the T.rex. It’s an amazingly horrible 90s dinosaur movie that’s so bad it’s good, and Obscurus Lupa does a great job riffing this movie.

Although she does use the F word twice in the review, so maybe it might not be Smithsonian material.

“First was the flying Sinornithosaurus—as far as I am aware, there has not been a study suggesting this ability for the dinosaur.”

There’s “Chatterjee and Templin 2004″ (See “Evolution of feather function”: http://people.eku.edu/ritchisong/feather_evolution.htm ).

“Planet Dinosaur also falls into the “dino gangs” trap.”

No offense, but were you watching the same doc as everyone else? It was clearly explained that PD’s Daspletosaurus was mobbing, not pack-hunting. I thought you of all ppl would’ve liked that, given your review of “Dino Gangs”.

Brian, how are you (and others) watching this? I thought it was unique to the UK.
