Jurassic Park portrayed them incorrectly. Utahraptors are more the right size. Also, if the Tyrannosaur had feathers, a dinosaur closer to the Archyopterix, the first dinosaur with well defined feathers, like the Dromaeosaurs (Utahraptor, Velociraptor, Deinonychus, etc.) would most defiantly have feathers.

    but at the end of the day... its all about the triceratops.

If i was fast enough [and built], would I be able to punch one out?

    You know.. for future reference...

    Edit: Uh, now I really really really really want to see Jurassic Park redone with arnie going around protecting his hot, accessible daughter [eliza dushku.. awesome], and punching out dinosaurs and setting up elaborate traps, and basically killing the entire bloody dinosaur population on the island before he sets off a bomb and flies out <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Like I said before his more technical post, about 3 feet tall <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If a couple of them jumped you you'd still be dead though.

    Yeah, 3 feetish is right. It's a fairly common conception that they and the other species closely related to them were pack hunters, kind of like wolves. Jet Lee might be able to kungfu a whole set, but Arnie might have a tough time even in full Terminator mode.

    Triceatops are cool, but Styracosaurus is cooler.
