About five minutes into David Krentz & Erik Nelson's CG animated feature, Dinotasia, the thought occurred to me that this film didn't look any better than any number of Discovery Channel TV programs. Suffice it to say, I was not surprised to learn Dinotasia does, in fact, find its origins in a Discovery Channel series titled Dinosaur Revolution. That being said, I'm a fan of those programs. My son and I watch shows like Clash of the Dinosaurs, Walking with Beasts, and Monsters Resurrected all the time.

And this time, as per The Hollywood Reporter, those furriners who complain incessantly about the ignorance of U.S. citizens only have the right to give us 1/3 of the lumps for making Michael Bay's latest cinematic travesty a rousing financial success. The biggest success in the franchise, no less, with Transformers: Dark of the Moon's U.S. ticket sales currently around $340 million and the international gross boasting about $660 million. No doubt, some of the movie's box office mojo stems from it being released in 3D, "requiring" higher ticket prices, and that is likely a contributing factor for the other two movies that have reached the $1 billion mark this year, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part II, respectively.
Huh. Maybe it's the long ass titles that are the key?
Anyway...
Not only does this mean that Michael Bay will continue...
