I\\\'ve read carefully the examples of Stock and Non-Stock dinos in films and so on.... and found that the distinction among the two categories appears somewhat subjective, either because YourMileageMayVary about considering stock some \\\"border-line\\\" dinosaurs, or because AlternativeCharacterInterpretation. Examples:
1) Which dino is actually Rudy - a \\\'\\\'Baryonyx\\\'\\\', a \\\'\\\'Suchomimus\\\'\\\' or simply a \\\'\\\'Spinosaurus\\\'\\\' with its sail removed by film-makers?
2) Ankylosaurs: many alleged fictional \\\'\\\'Ankylosaurus\\\'\\\' may be not such: As an example, I\\\'m sure now that Rooter from LBT is an \\\'\\\'Euoplocephalus\\\'\\\' (although drawn with the older, incorrect portrait with two spikes on the tip of the tail); and I once had one rubber ankylosaur toy that I recognized as a old-fashioned \\\'\\\'Polacanthus\\\'\\\'. I think there is some confusion between \\\'\\\'Ankylosaurus\\\'\\\' (genus) and \\\"Ankylosaur\\\" (infraorder) in pop-culture.
3) It may look odd to you, but in Italy \\\'\\\'Procompsognathus\\\'\\\' is actually more popular than \\\'\\\'Compsognathus\\\'\\\' because the former name was used in the translation of JurassicPark 2 :-O
4) The Sauropod Confusion: I have seen someone has interpreted Littlefoot as \\\'\\\'Mamenchisaurus\\\'\\\': and when I was a boy, I identified it as \\\'\\\'Diplodocus\\\'\\\'....
5) Some people say that JurassicPark novel used both Stock and Non-Stock dinos, and they list \\\'\\\'Dilophosaurus\\\'\\\' and \\\'\\\'Velociraptor\\\'\\\' among the stock ones... I think it\\\'s not exact, since these dinos became stock \\\'\\\'just thanks to\\\'\\\' Jurassic Park, as they were rather unknown before Crichton even by many dino-fans, myself included :-)
6) And what about non-dinos like \\\'\\\'Quetzalcoatlus\\\'\\\', Phorusrhachid or \\\'\\\'Archelon\\\'\\\'? It looks like they are stock if you consider only non dinos, but they aren\\\'t if you consider \\\'\\\'all\\\'\\\' prehistoric beast as a whole...
