* MeekMesozoicMammal: Played with. While she is prone to fleeing away from larger animals as the rest of her kind are, she has a moment of bravery when she saves Ducky from being eaten by [[FeatheredFiend Ichy]] and [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile Dil]].

* ArtEvolution: In ''The Great Valley Adventure,'' they have ridges running up their necks and down to about their eyebrows. In ''The Mysterious Island,'' the ridges are smaller and don't go as far, making their heads look boxier. Also, their faces had bumps and spots on them in closeups in their first appearance which [[ProgressivelyPrettier aren't there]] in their second.

* InterspeciesRomance: Downplayed. She finds Grandpa Longneck good-looking and muses that they'd make "quite a pair" together if he had flippers.



* DarkerAndEdgier: Sharpteeth, particularly unnamed ones, are generally portrayed as either friendlier than they seem or incompetent villains, but the Plated Sharptooth harkens more to the vicious, relentless threat of the original Sharptooth. He holds the distinction of being the only character other than the first Sharptooth to ever draw visible blood on screen. [[http://i1133.photobucket.com/albums/m596/FlipperBoidSkua/Blood.jpg He slashes Chomper's father's nose with his claws]], and then slashes his mother's leg with his toes. And no, it didn't get edited out this time.

to:

* CharacterTics: He bites into stuff and chews it, as if tasting. He does this with a bush the kids were hiding in, then the patch of stinky plants, and finally a chunk of dirt. The chewing gives him a chance to show off his extra-long and pointed teeth for the audience.
* ConflictKiller: His arrival kills two conflicts in the story. First, Cera doesn't trust Chomper, but the two both save each other from the Plated Sharptooth and so become friends again. Second, the kids are worried Chomper's parents will eat them, but Littlefoot saving Chomper from the Plated Sharptooth earns their respect.

* ImplacableMan: While not quite as unstoppable as the sharptooth of the first film, he's displayed unusual persistance by jumping over chasms and fighting off other sharpteeth in an attempt to get at the heroes.

* ItCanThink: Since the Plated Sharptooth apparently can't talk like Chomper's parents, he initially comes off as a mindless predator. However, he shows problem-solving abilities when, unable to reach the kids where they're hiding under a rock, he lifts up the rock to get at them.



* TakingYouWithMe: Similar to how the original sharptooth nearly dragged Petrie into the water with him when he falls from the precipice in the first film, the Plated Sharptooth knocks Chomper off a cliff and into the ocean along with him and nearly causes him to drown.

After emerging from the water, he sees Chomper and goes for another bite, but Chomper survives this with Littlefoot's help.
* UncertainDoom: The last we see of him, he's roaring in panic as the current drags him out to sea--relatively unharmed, but with not-so-bright odds of surviving.
* TheVoiceless: He's introduced in the same movie we learn Sharpteeth have their own language, but though he roars and growls a lot, if he ''can'' talk he doesn't seem to bother with Chomper's parents.



* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Being a shark, it naturally has a large mouth full of scary teeth.

* BadassAdorable: And they're They're enormous ''T. rexes'' who fight dinosaurs together... and downright ''adorable'' when they're with their son.



* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: The original ''T. rex'' from the first film was either a SuperPersistentPredator hunting the children, or a sadistic SerialKiller who hunted the kids out of petty revenge and killed for pleasure, depending on whether you follow the film or the novelisation. These two ''T. rexes'' are neither. They were just furious about the loss of their egg and leave once they find the hatched Chomper. Further development shows them completely subverting PredatorsAreMean trope entirely.

Further development shows them completely subverting PredatorsAreMean trope entirely. The contrast is especially drastic with Chomper's father, who looks almost exactly the same as the original Sharptooth.



* GoodEyesEvilEyes: Their eyes become noticeably rounder and friendlier-looking when they're no longer a threat to the heroes, best seen when Mama smiles at Cera.



* HappilyMarried: For a pair of predators, they care for each other just as much as they do their son, to BattleCouple levels.

* HappilyMarried: For a pair of predators, they care for each other just as much as they do their son, to BattleCouple levels. The only tension seen between them is when Mama Sharptooth accidentally bites Papa's snout trying to get Ducky off; Papa snarls in pain at Mama and she snarls back, then they go back to working together.

* MonsterIsAMommy: They leave the Great Valley as soon as they find their son.
* NonMaliciousMonster: They're carnivores who have to eat, but they're not sadistic and they're willing to leave individual would-be prey at peace if their son's befriended them.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: They aren't really villainous, but they are dangerous, and they have the eyes to match.
* TerrifyingTyrannosaur: They are a terrifying threat to Littlefoot and his friends, with only the adult herbivores being capable of driving them off. But once they find their long-lost son, they actually prove themselves to be gentle and loving parents, willing to leave the Great Valley in peace. That said, woe to those that threaten their son again, as Ozzy and Strut find out the hard way.

to:

* RedEyesTakeWarning: They aren't really villainous, but they are ''are'' dangerous, and they have the eyes to match.
* SignatureRoar: In-universe; Chomper can tell which roars are his mom's or his dad's. They use Creator/FrankWelker roars recycled from the original Sharptooth in ''The Great Valley Adventure,'' but in ''The Mysterious Island'' they sound more like trumpeting elephants. This shows they aren't monsters but rather just large (if still dangerous) animals.
* SoLastSeason: In their first appearance, they're the main threat of the film, and it takes a whole slew of adults working together to drive them off. In their second appearance, the Plated Sharptooth alone is a match for both of them.

* TheWorfEffect: The Plated Sharptooth beats both parents in his initial round with them, showing how dangerous he is. Chomper's father gets the better of him in the end, though.


Added DiffLines:

* HellishPupils: Both he and Chomper's parents have red eyes, so to make it extra clear he's a bad guy compared to them, the Plated Sharptooth's pupils are slitted instead of round.
