A one-shot 2011 Creator/{{BBC}} TVDocumentary about the history of DinosaurMedia. Discusses several stock tropes present in dino-movies, and reflects on their cultural importance in a lighthearted, tongue-in-cheek way.

Thoroughly talks about:

* ''WesternAnimation/GertieTheDinosaur''
* ''Film/TheLostWorld''
* ''Film/KingKong1933'' and its {{remake}}
* ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' movies
* ''Film/{{Gorgo}}''
* ''{{Film/One Million Years BC}}''
* ''Film/TheBeastFromTwentyThousandFathoms''
* ''Film/TheValleyOfGwangi''
* ''Franchise/JurassicPark'' and sequels

… and also features a stock of other, often pretty obscure productions.

!!Appearing tropes:
* ComputerGeneratedImages: The latest method of bringing dinosaurs and other monsters to life. The program also has a brief TakeThat moment at it, or more specifically at the '05 ''King Kong'' {{Remake}}, saying that the movie suffered from an overdose of over-the-top CGI scenes.
* CulturalTranslation: ''Film/{{Gojira}}'''s brash, [[Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters1956 American]] {{recut}}. Also the later [[Film/{{Godzilla 1998}} 1998 remake]].
* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: The ''T. rex'''s defeat at the hands of King Kong. Some of the TalkingHeads found it too disturbing.
%%* FeatheredFiend: ''Velociraptors''. The ''real'' ones.
%%* FrazettaMan, and their contrast with sexy [[NubileSavage cave-women]].
%%* FurBikini: Raquel Welch could not be left out.
%%* LostWorld: One of the more commonly used settings in early movies.
%%* NubileSavage
* PeopleInRubberSuits: Godzilla, Gorgo, and tons of other, forgettable monsters the {{Narrator}} just calls "Crapasauruses".
* {{Prehistoria}}: The "inventive" new setting that dethroned the LostWorld, but brought about a gigantic AnachronismStew. Again, the cave-women made audiences gloss over this.
* PrehistoricMonster: What Gertie, Gorgo and Creator/RayHarryhausen's creatures were definitely ''not''.
* RaptorAttack: The program goes on to point out that real-life raptors looked nothing like their ''Franchise/JurassicPark'' cousins, but even so, faux-raptors are still cool and scary.
%%* {{Slurpasaur}}: Strangely an avoided topic.
%%* StopMotion: A lost form of art in dinosaur media.
