      Dinosaurs started as a pitch for a much more straight up dark satirical feature film ("The Natural History Project") about a dying dinosaur civilization that destroys itself, like The Dark Crystal But they canned it when Land Before Time came out, the brand overlapped too muchhttps://twitter.com/McJesse/status/1237545466687938560 …

      So they sat on the idea for a while and then recycled it as something totally different from The Land Before Time in tone, this goofy family sitcom thing But the concepts from the original pitch were all still in there, just scattered throughout

      And I think that's why it was so much more powerful, it was this stealth thing that snuck up on you They're going about their daily lives working through all their interpersonal shit and meanwhile the signs their whole world is going to end keep on multiplying

      I mean that's the thing about the Wendy of the world, the really scary and tragic thing about it is right up to the end, no one's life is 100% about the end of the world Jesus said so in one of his sermons

      On the day the world ends, there'll be a couple who fall in madly in love for the first time, and another couple bitterly breaking up Someone will be filled with hope and excitement they just started a new job and someone else will be flipping out over getting fired

      Someone will be having their wacky argument with their neighbor come to a head, and someone will learn a valuable lesson about peer pressure and start really growing up and taking responsibility for the first time, and someone will discover a new TV show that's just getting good

      And then it will all end Right in the middle of all those unresolved arcs The asteroid doesn't check in to see if you're ready and let you tie up loose ends, it comes when it comes

      The thing is though, unless you're under the asteroid, it does take time. That's one of the things I liked about the first Mad Max, it dealt with a world breaking apart piece by piece. It didn't assume the post apocalypse just appeared suddenly like an Instagram filter.

      That's one of the themes of Dinosaurs of course Things really are getting worse and worse, in a way that makes the apocalypse impossible to stop when it finally gets going But everyone just assumes the shitty world they live in when the series starts is normal

          The line from this clip about "Dinosaurs have existed for 150 million years" is a repeated thing Earl says throughout the show to justify his Archie Bunker conservatism

          Damn I really should have paid more attention to the subtext of that show. I just used to think the baby was cool.
