OMG, yes!
We watched it with our kids over the holidays and I don’t think they could appreciate just how amazing it was—and not just for the time, but in general.
Thanks for raising a kid who understands the important things in life, haha!

She is also a big fan of a newer dino movie called Primitive War, this one is a little more violent and the dinosaurs are move anatomically correct - well according to her anyway. LOL

That’s pretty funny. I remember my son reading comic books, then we’d go watch a superhero movie, and he’d tell me “that’s not what really happened!” Good sir, none of this happened.

While we’re on the subject, my kids watched “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” with me last night and loved it.

Thanks mate. The comp is Saturday and it is still Friday night here. I had to weigh in today. Hit the scales at 93.5KG (206 lbs), well under the 105KG limit. I have been eating and hydrating a lot today. Comp athlete briefing is at 8am and the venue is about a 1hr drive. I’ll be up around 6am which is my normal time, quick breakfast then hit the road. Bags are already packed and sitting my the door.
