walking with dinosaurs truly was revolutionary created by Tim Haines and produced by the BBC in 1999 the series received critical acclaim following its initial broadcast winning two BAFTAs and earning six Primetime Emmy Awards nominations as well as further cementing the fascination of these ancient animals to the world introducing thousands of people like myself to the wonderful world of the Mesozoic and even long after its initial debut and a wide variety of prehistory based documentaries following a suit arguably none have been able to top this classic piece of television but how does it hold it today is this series as good as we remember it or has it simply become a relic of a bygone age let's find this out and more at the start of our journey all the way back in the Triassic with new blood [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] the first episode of Walking with Dinosaurs new blood is a great introduction to the miniseries and the titular dinosaurs the episode details the rise of the dinosaurs and how they came to dominate the earth following the animals of the Triassic as a metaphorical arms race plays out over the course of the episode which would determine which group of animals will inherit the earth the landscape the Triassic presents is both bleak and beautiful with a contrast between the dry season and wet season being very apparent the filming location of New Caledonia is absolutely perfect for this episodes and when looking at the flora and the environments the episode presents it really makes you feel like a film crew actually went back in time to the Triassic and this is just one of the many advantages walking with dinosaurs has the real filming locations make the events that happen in the episodes feel more real and it is a great source of immersion the segments with the female poster circus are the highlights of the episodes her being introduced as a formidable predator as the ruler of her environment striking fear into both the animals around her and the audience with the size and ferocity which alongside a very fitting theme makes her truly intimidating presence as the episode progresses the post asuka's goes through a tragic arc and is gradually made sympathetic from her being wounded in the encounter with the 'plus serious as well was her losing her territory to a rival who down for all culminating in her death with her collapsing and being eaten by the very animals she wants instilled fear into the death of the poster circus is one of the more emotional moments of the show and although not the most poignant scene the show has to offer it's still a well made scene even if the poster sukhasana medtronic does look a bit strange at times post Asuka says a hole however looks excellent possessing one of the greatest models in the show being complimented with great texturing and coloration as well as a great model Coelophysis the main dinosaur species the episode focuses on like the previously mentioned poster suka s-- has a fantastic model and coloration as well as having great animations and personality the Coelophysis themselves are the sign that the dinosaurs are beginning to take a hold in their environment this is showed throughout the episode as an individual is initially focused on and as it progresses more and more animals are shown on screen and as showed at the end of the episode the Coelophysis have essentially become a massive swarm that is sweeping up and usurping all of the other Triassic animals heralding the arrival of the Mesozoic and the reign of the dinosaurs as well as the dinosaurs and other reptiles the episode also takes time to focus on a pair of signer Dom's sign up seeds that are constantly pressured by Coelophysis throughout the episode eventually having to sacrifice their own young in order to preserve their own lives the Afra mention scene is handled well given the subject matter and the scene itself is not made overly dramatic presenting the occurrence as a natural event just like in any modern nature documentary to us such an act is unthinkable but to the sila dance it is critical to their survival and it's the only way for the two parents to survive even if their young have to be sacrificed this is a commendable thing for the documentary to show considering that the series housed the creative freedom to tell unique stories as the animals featured along since extinct the team behind the documentary could have just scrapped the scene altogether in favor of censorship but instead they told what they wanted to tell and show what they wanted to show regardless of the reaction that people would have the natural world is something that shouldn't have to be censored as doing so would be blatant ignorance even if some people wouldn't want to know such things exist Walking with Dinosaurs understands this and doesn't hold back with its visuals and stories and this scene is a clear example of such understanding there isn't much wrong with the episodes but a minor issue that does affects it is the narrative of the dinosaurs winning out over the other reptiles that existed in the Triassic while dinosaurs did survive the Triassic extinction event it doesn't necessarily mean that there were any better adapted for their environment than their contemporaries as was shown in the episode in reality dinosaurs were merely lucky survivors of the extinction event and the other reptiles and the episodes that were deemed as more primitive such as the poster super simple serious were not these relics of a bygone age like the episode suggests even though this was not known at the time post asuka's is now known to have been a bipedal animal much unlike the poster suit is depicted in Walking with Dinosaurs meaning that the bipedal stance adopted by the dinosaurs was not unique to the group but instead being more commonplace amongst other arcus or morphs at first glance many of these non dinosaurian reptiles look surprisingly similar to the dinosaurs that would follow them some even being mistaken for dinosaurs when they were first discovered these striking similarities between the two groups suggest that members of the two groups likely shared similar lifestyles meaning that they were also competing for the same resources despite this as its own self-contained story within the documentary the episode still works fine if this criticism is pushed to the wayside and even then I wouldn't say out rights ruins the episode as it has enough good things going for its that balances this negative owls which goes for all the other episodes really as all of them have inaccuracies whether they be large or small overall new bud is a great introductory episode for the series and sets the foundations of the style walking with dinosaurs as going for the second episode time of the Titans is likely to be the most iconic in well-recognized episodes and for good reason taking place in the Morrison Formation of lights Jurassic North America the episode mainly focuses on a female Diplodocus and the rest of her clutch through their first moments as hatchlings to their struggles on the open plains facing danger from both the animals around them and their environment the episode is simple in structure and even while following a Maine dinosaur character the episode still takes its time to showcase other animals and their own day-to-day lives time of the Titans has a large ensemble of well-known animals from the Jurassic from the iconic green and spiny Diplodocus to the red crested Allosaurus the reconstructions of these animals in particular are iconic and are likely known by people who may not have even seen the documentary the dupatta curse themselves being the standout animals of the episodes are fittingly majestic which is further enhanced by the sounds given to the sauropods which had given deep and beautiful bellows which is fitting for such an imposing animal this is also the perfect time to bring up Benjamin Bart slight score which across all of the series is fantastic but especially so in this episode arguably the most iconic piece featured in the documentary is found here and this particular grandiose theme encapsulate all of what makes dinosaurs are so spectacular to us slowly building and building into a magnificent piece of music that makes listening to the score feel like you're witnessing the ore and majesty of these animals and what it might have been like to be alongside of them the score of time of the Titans itself is rather reminiscent of Stravinsky Shostakovich and other notable classical composers with long sweeping harmonies that grab your attention and enthrall you into the mystical and mysterious world of the Jurassic given the episode a beautiful but also primordial and otherworldly feel that is great - inspired by the classical greats of the past the Diplodocus are contrasted musically by the Allosaurus which are accompanies by fitting unnerving music that is a great foil to the peaceful and flowing theme of the Diplodocus as an example as a pair of Allosaurus stalk the canyon in a tense scene that slowly builds up and then back down to the peaceful notes of the sauropod lights the music is then quickly thrown into disarray in panic as the Allosaurus reached the creche giving the scene a very unsettling and traumatic feel the influences from Stravinsky and others like him are also apparent for when the Allosaurus charged for the southern blaring opening which I find myself to be one of the best pieces in the documentary take a listen [Music] going back to the dinosaurs and other animals they all hold up okay when compared to what we currently know of dinosaur life appearance although there are some problems here and there the first animal that comes to mind is that Anurag natha's and really everything about it is in the wrong area North America instead of Germany has a completely different lifestyle from what we know of although the idea of small pterosaurs living on sauropods is an interesting idea as well was this the Anatomy is also off which made an already very interesting looking pterosaur into a more generic one which is quite a shame but the animal didn't have too much screen time so is not the worst thing in the world the Allosaurus also appear more robust than what we know from specimens and have the wrong skull shape although this would be fixed somewhat in the Ballad of big owl a year later the dupatta 'kiss are depicted with the more horizontal posture which was a part of a heavily discussed topic in how sauropods held their necks up the documentary ultimately went with the more accepted horizontal posture although nowadays a vertical posture is more likely given that's their closest relatives at birds and crocodiles possess more vertically neutral neck posture so it is likely that sauropods had to this same posture as well even in the more and flexible next Diplodocus so unless sauropods carried to their heads and necks differently from every living group of land vertebrates through Occam's razor are more vertically posited to Porticus is more likely ton of the Titans overall is still a fantastic episode on the show showcasing the majesty of the dinosaurs in an unparalleled way and is most deserving of its iconicity cruel sea is the quality episode in walking with dinosaurs as it is one of two episodes in the series to focus primarily on the non dinosaur animals of the Mesozoic which gives the documentary a chance to explore the animals that existed alongside of the dinosaurs and offer a perspective on the other environments of the prehistoric world the episode follows the fauna of not just a sea but the air and land showing how these different animals all in some way rely on the ocean for their survival whether it's the island fairing theropods or the high-flying RAM for the episode utilizes its aquatic setting to full effect showing some absolutely stunning shots from Optimus Ora sleeping out of the water and hunting squid in the night - to live plural Don confronting each other it's really a beautiful episode to look out and stands out because of it Crossy also has a brilliant atmosphere that makes the ocean out to be both a beautiful spectacle and a terrifying abyss this atmosphere is emphasized of the music present in the episodes which features large affecting pieces that's used the slow building swells of strings interspersed with steady bass notes and shimmering celesta to illustrate the hardships of the marine reptiles as well as utilizing strings orchestral harp and bass to form a picture in our heads that fits perfectly in how we view the ocean itself a beautiful but also mysterious and terrifying place all at once which I think this soundtrack perfectly sells as being both serene and unsettling all at once the episode also has a brilliant subversive opening that shows that the ocean is an unforgiving place tying into the episodes title as well as at the end of the episode whether you strip to spondylus turn the tables on the beach to Liopleurodon showing how even the most inoffensive animals are still vulnerable to their unpredictable and dangerous world like the rest of the series cruel sea has inaccuracies although more apparent ones compared to the others such as cryptic lightest on the land and skin feeding pterosaurs but then of course there's the elephant in the room or in this case the oversized Playa saw in the room that's being the absolutely massive liar plurid on the live word unknown in the fossil record are estimated to be an average 5 to 7 meters in length so how did the documentary end up presenting these animals of lengths of 25 meters the Liopleurodon featured in Walking with Dinosaurs was based on isolated vertebra about 25 centimeters wide which was initially thought to belong to a ccs orhid and was later reassigned as apply a silver spray at a later date by Colin McHenry based on this fierce Abra it was then compared to a kronosaurus specimen which were estimated a sari for 13 meters back then resulting in an estimation of a prior saw of around 280 nanometers this specimen was assigned to live lurid on due to it being the most well known plier saw in the region the fossil was found and was further scaled up to 25 meters as the vertebra was thoughts and not belonged to a fully grown animal resulting in the ridiculously large ripe Loredana featured in the documentary nowadays these estimates were not shown to be very accurate but the walking with dinosaurs live lurid on still exists to show you people one of the most ridiculous examples of erroneous scaling in paleontology as mentioned earlier the episode really does have some of the best sequences and shots in the documentary including the you strip to spondylus ramp for Incas hunts and too cryptic liders chasing scores of fish the cryptic riders themselves were placed over footage of tuna to emulate them attacking the school so that's the movements of the fish would still respond in the same way to a large presence even while using CGI all of this as well as the superb use of CGI and animatronics makes cruel see one of the best episodes featured in the documentary in spite of its royal sized Playa Sora's giant of the skies the fourth episode in the series goes from detailing the Mesozoic oceans to the skies primarily focusing on the pterosaurs the episode follows a mayor or mythic iris and one of his flights to his mating grounds which the episode foreshadows to be his last flight the earth Icarus goes through hardships such as being grounded by the weather and being weakened by parasites as well as encountering other animals as he ventures some more dangerous than others eventually he manages to arrive at his destination but is unable to reach his preferred display area and being old and not as fit as he used to be is forced to display on the edges of the breeding grounds where he slowly dies on the beach through heatstroke and exhaustion the episodes quite unlike the others in the series has a more plot driven narrative as it follows one particular animal which was done in time of the Titans with the female dupatta 'kiss but in that case the story didn't focus all too much time on her as the episode took more time to feature the other animals of the Jurassic giant of the skies does this well but never strays too far off of the mayo and fork iris always keeping him relevant throughout with increased screen time and backgrounds presence compared to other animals in the series so that any and all deviations from him and his story don't feel like abrupt breaks because of this giant of the skies like crawl sea before it's is a standout installment in the series not just because it focuses on other non dinosaur animals but also due to its heavy atmosphere which is punctuated by the fantastic all of the Kairos theme which varies depending on the mood the episode wants to present from traumatic for the owner focuses first appearance adventurous for when the autistic iris flies across the Earth's oceans and heartbreaking for when the on earth Icarus finally meets his end even while you know what's the on earth the Kairos is faces from the beginning of the episodes the death of the owner the Kairos is a profound scene accompanies by very saddening strings in a violin and makes a death even more emotional enhancing the already saddening mood the episodes like all of the ones before and after it has its fair share of inaccuracies from relatively minor ones like the posture of pterosaur arms and their strength to Iguanodon being a worldwide genus which was down to its position as a wastebasket taxon at the time although this inaccuracy wasn't considered one when the documentary was being produced but then comes the infamous Utah Raptors which as their name suggests are found in North America but are for some reason in Europe for a seemingly unexplained reason and while this does seem very odd there is a reason for this when Iguanodon as a genus was more widespread and to due to its answer other animals being found in both North America and Europe it was fair to assume that's Hugh our APSA would have also been the same although this didn't take into account that's North America and Europe had already separated for millions of years at the time the episode takes place in hence why the on earth the Kairos still flies over the Atlantic Ocean the on of the Kairos is also far too large and was based off of fragmentary remains that indicated a potential 12 meter wings thus ended up being utilized in the documentary these remains were eventually described in 2012 and were found to belong to an animal with a maximum wingspan of 8.26 meters the 12 meter estimates Maul not as likely or based on any substantial evidence at the time was likely chosen by the producers of the series due to its being more spectacular which will lead into one of the show's biggest criticisms as I will get into further on in the video giant of the skies is one of the most breathtaking and emotional episodes and even though there are some issues with it it still holds up well with its powerful narrative and stunning shot composition spirits of the ice forest is an episode from the series that is both incredibly unique and overlooked in us its utilizes animals that's many people out of the sphere of paleontology wouldn't know about as well as taking place in an environment that's many wouldn't expect dinosaurs to live that's being near the South Pole in what is now southern Australia the episode follows a clan of Lee Ellen essaouira and their struggles throughout their ever-changing environment from variable seasons to enigmatic predators the episode to me and to many others is quite as mirabile in us it gives attention to otherwise unknown animals that has not been featured in any source of media and even to this day have hunts little focus so for such a landmark documentary taking the opportunity to showcase animals such as many wouldn't know about is great to see the animals the episode presents like Massa Buress or Santilli Ellen essaouira are quite fragmentary so I support them as focuses for an episode showcase that the creators wish to educate first and foremost in order to show the mesozoic through a perspective that hasn't been shown before in the media up until this point instead of going with the more typical animals that are more complete and better known in terms of the episodes presentation the episode aside from the trials of the Lee Ellen essaouira clan doesn't necessarily have much of a plot showcasing the adaptations at the plants and animals utilized to survive in their environment which is in no way a bad thing as it feels just like an installment from a present-day nature documentary the episodes also has a relaxing feel to it and as further punctuated by the fantastic music that accompanies it the release tracks spirits of the ice forest sleeping yellowness aura and antarctic spring are serene and beautifully made and the departure of the mutter barosaurus is one of the best pieces in the whole documentary and is awe inspiring to listen to as to be expected there are inaccuracies here and there and one of the biggest comes in the form of thoroughly Eleanor Sora the motto itself holds up well but the appearance is completely off from what we now know small ornithischians likely Ilona Sora are known to have possessed feathers and given its Antarctic habitats the lack of feathers on an assumably cold-adapted animal is a whistle odd to say the least the next point isn't necessarily an inaccuracy but the animatronic yellowness aura looks quite creepy with dead looking eyes and cheeks at the collapse in on themselves once the mouth is closed a second inaccuracy is a more interesting one that's being in watch the documentary terms Polaris oars these animals were based off of an ankle bone found in Cape Patterson Victoria which for the longest time was referred to as a dwarf Elvis or Allosaurus robustus or what the episode calls them polar Allah saws in recent years the Allosaurus featured in this episodes have been attributed to the genus Australia venice' but this genus wasn't discovered until 2005 well after the series had been made the ankle bone I mentioned earlier more than likely didn't belong to Australia Vernetta as to Kate Patterson theropods as it is named comes from older rocks and was found further south than the remains belong to Australia Vanessa this bone has been found to resemble most closely the controversial megaraptor ins or potentially Anabella saw butts knots belonging to some relict population of jurassic alice oars near the end of the episode it is also stated to thats the climates would call driving the polar dinosaurs into extinction where else it was actually the opposite effect the climates around the Late Cretaceous continued to get warmer through the Cretaceous through more maximum and the drop in temperatures around the poles came well after in the Cenozoic spirits of the ice forest is both an under looked and underrated installment of war with Dinosaurs which has likely down to its utilization of lesser-known animals but aside from that spirits of the ice forest is a beautiful episodes and definitely deserves some more attention the final episode in the series death of a dynasty like spirits of the ice forest before it has a heavy atmosphere but instead of being mystical is desolate and bleak the culmination of five episodes before its death of a dynasty details the extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs and the end of the Mesozoic following the last days of the animals living in the now renowned Hell Creek Formation as stated earlier the episode has a very sickening feel to it under the episode excellently showcases the last day of the dinosaurs showcasing how it affects the animals and the environment and really makes it feel like the dinosaurs and the entire planet are on their last legs the episode has some great highlights such as the Torosaurus fights under the ankylosaurus confrontation but as it is the end of the Cretaceous and the final episode in a paleo documentary an extinction scene would of course be present and is most definitely a standout scene this extinction scene has been criticized for being too short Santa not being very dramatic but really that's what's the whole point of the scene other documentaries in the vein of walking with dinosaurs make the extinction scene a very dramatic showing footage of the asteroids and/or comets hitting the Earth from space with a fiery Inferno following the impact but in Walking with Dinosaurs the extinction is from a dinosaur I view experiencing the extinction alongside the audience in a more realistic manner with no music present the whole event is very eerie to witness and to the blast front that flows over the mountains is terrifying without being too dramatic with animals calling out in terror and having a subtlety to its that's leaves it to the imagination as to what's the impact was like without even showing it this more subtle and quick extinction also has another benefit to it in nuts given the context of the episode the dinosaurs were already suffering due to increased volcanism and the asteroid hitting the earth effectively put them out of their misery literally sweeping them away as if they were nothing when the power the impact brought while not being too dramatic fitting in with the atmosphere and enthralling nature of the documentary aside from the world own extinction scene inaccuracies still persist and some animals have quite a few as we'll get into the whole premise of the episodes that's the end of the Cretaceous was a time dominated by increased volcanism is inaccurate at this time aside from potentially the Deccan Traps in India due to its close proximity to the extinction of the dinosaurs life in North America and the rest of the world effectively functioned as it has done throughout the Mesozoic due to there being no substantial evidence that states otherwise so the animals presented in the episodes would have not lived in a suffocating world the habitats of the Hell Creek Formation is also wrong as from what we know from fossil evidence Hell Creek was a floodplain environment with ferns and redwoods and palm trees being prevalent rather than the Asheville was presented in the episodes although the Chilean filming location was chosen due to there being no grass but even then it is an inaccuracy nonetheless though quit circa weightless that makes a brief appearance in the episodes is also far from what we know of the actual animal the model's proportions are completely off even for the time and even possesses teeth likely due to the Quetzalcoatlus being a reskin Dorna thick iris but even so and as dark in pterosaur with teeth is a very poor mistake to me the oddest design choice in the episodes answer one with the most inaccuracies is sure to be the Tyrannosaurus which for being the most famous of all non-avian dinosaurs was really not done justice this Tyrannosaurus design is heavily shrink-wrapped as the wrong head shape and a short tail that makes the animal looking balanced the artists design choice of all comes with the feet which seemed to possess hoof nails and overall don't look quite right the only thing going for the design is the coloration but aside from that it's probably the most baffling design choice in the documentary and especially for the tyrant lizards king all-in-all death of a dynasty is a grace episodes and a perfect end to walking with dinosaurs and while nots my personal favorite episodes it has plenty of memorable moments and is still an enjoyable experience aside from all of the inaccuracy the episode ends on a more positive note by showcasing us even in today in a world largely dominated by mammals birds being extent dinosaurs still exist and shows that really we are still walking among dinosaurs to this very day and to that those are the six episodes of Walking with Dinosaurs reviewed but since this is a review I would like to give my conclusion on the series and what I think of it overall pre watching Walking with Dinosaurs for this review was a great experience and really made me love this documentary even more than I already did this documentary was a truly landmark series when it first aired and still even to this day 20 years after it first aired it is still a very solid piece of paleo media getting into the show's technical aspects Sir Kenneth Branagh the narrator of the series has a brilliant voice that immerses the viewer into the prehistoric world like no other and was an absolute perfect casting choice if there ever was one for this documentary having a wide range of tone and mood in his voice that's perfectly fits whatever scene he narrates over another fantastic component of the series is the music which composed by Benjamin Bart sleight superb really fits with the documentary enhancing the show's atmosphere in making sad moments even sadder and breathtaking moments even more breathtaking than they already were I would also like to thank him for discussing the music behind the documentary with me for this video and I was pleased to have done so one of the best aspects of the series is that stew - the animal was being extinct the team behind the series were able to create narratives and send their animals through trials and journeys that make the episodes connect more with an audience something that's documentaries on extant animals cannot pull off to near the same extent the real filming locations make the episodes feel very real under each location nearly perfectly matches from what's we know these environments were like back in the Mesozoic utilizing locations like New Zealand and Tasmania that still possess more ancient plants lineages that's were widespread back in the Mesozoic but a relatively rare today in these environments the team behind the documentary utilizes both CG and practical FEX to bring the animals to life scanning in detailed models and then animating them and then realistically fitting them into their respective environments taking into account shadows and lighting to make the models look as realistic as possible as well as the use of CGI the animatronics utilized for close-up shots are highly detailed and well made and were done by the special effects company crawling creatures that's also did the effects for both the walking with series and the spin-off theories sea monsters and chased by dinosaurs and have an incredible attention to detail the animatronic eyes even move and dilates under the nostrils can flare making the animals depicted in the series far more believable than they otherwise would be even with the good CGI for the time the documentary is made even more realistic by creating splashes and other miscellaneous effects like the kicking of dirt or the movement of branches before placing in the CG animals and then placing them over the effect making it seem like they are interacting with their environment even subtle effects like saliva and breath are taking into consideration making the whole experience more realistic in a subtle way that's may go unnoticed but are a great addition nonetheless all of this attention to detail shows that the people behind the series wanted to make the best documentary possible about prehistoric life that they could while also having some fun during the production as well as showing through the making of Walking with Dinosaurs which itself brings some grace humour of course though even with this high attention to detail criticism about the show and its presentation was a source of controversy to many the series was especially controversial with a number of paleontologists in that the show puts a big emphasis on speculation and sensationalism rather than using a more factual approach the creators of the series responded by saying that the goal of the series was to entertain first and foremost presenting the prehistoric world as if these extinct organisms were still around today simulating documentaries about extant animals but still educating the audience on the animals and to their adaptations and Anatomy in a way that would still fit with the tone of the series the narratives present in the episodes are present to draw in the viewers in order to make them care about the animals and stories and in following with this style there are no cutaways to paleontologists talking or the narrator simply reading outs known facts the series manages to put in some healthy speculation alongside this such as biological and behavioral aspects to that we will never likely know about so the presentation of this series really isn't an issue Thea recent information on prehistoric life are always changing and there was no possible way for everything in the show to hold up years down the line this isn't to say that the creators didn't care about accuracy however as up to the time of the series production many of the taxonomic and anatomical details of the animals were accurate for the time and like the creator's staties quite a lot of what they stated in the documentary has changed but that is merely the progress of science are not a lack of care the science behind the series was also covered in the making of Walking with Dinosaurs and gives some insight into how the series was made me calling out some of the inaccuracies in this video may have come off as nitpicking but it's only because I want to both educate and point out what has changed since 1999 in that the documentary itself is still a great piece of media thus in my opinion now serves as a gateway to further interest in paleontology and to the sciences and another great aspect of the series is not the dinosaurs and other animals are treated to like the living breathing animals that's they once were the show is peaceful showcasing the everyday lives of animals during the Mesozoic as while there are violent and some cases dramatic scenes they are realistic in their presentation and aren't too overdramatic or unbelievable something less in my opinion has yet to be replicated even today in Upper Paleolithic the series succeeds in bringing these animals back to life Walking with Dinosaurs also had a massive impact on how documentaries about prehistoric life were treated before walking with dinosaurs dinosaur behavior was described more than shown and were predominantly depicted in static pictures or through their skeletal mounts and it made it harder to believe that such animals could have really existed the ambitious use of CGI and animatronics made these animals feel like real organisms and in my opinion made them easier to grasp and imagine in the process every episode of the series is well-made and off the highest of quality and each of the episodes has its own unique feel and atmosphere to it which means that all of the episodes can be watched and enjoyed depending on what the viewer wants to watch if you want to watch something that is both majestic and beautiful then time of the Titans would be ideal cruel see if you want to be immersed in the heavy atmosphere of the ocean and death of a dynasty if you want to watch the world burn Walking with Dinosaurs as we all know was a huge success and allowed for more series on prehistory to be made series has almost definitely discuss at a later date and has inspired many people in appreciating the prehistoric world and the field of paleontology likely to near the same levels as those inspired by Jurassic Park and with that I think that is just about all I have to say about walking with Dinosaurs even if it is inaccurate by today's standards walking with dinosaurs is a classic documentary and I would highly recommend giving this series of re-watch or watch if you haven't seen it before for both its portrayal of extinct animals as well as for its compelling storytelling and effects this series means a lot to me and to many others and I was very glad to have reviews it and with that I thank you for watching this video and I hope you enjoyed it if you want to see more from this channel be sure to subscribe if you haven't already and I'll see you next time whenever that may be [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] you
