Tiny's so cute!
BTW, I don't know if anyone remembers this but Adam West also did a voice over in
Batman: The Animated Series as a has-been actor who played "The Gray Ghost" this super-hero Bruce watched as a child. I forgot what happens but somehow he gets mixed up with crime (not intentionally) and Batman has to save the man who played his hero as a child.
Anyway, West did that part very well.

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

I've also seen an English version of that poster in bus shelters around London.
I'm not sure pushing Tiny is a good idea though...marketers think everyone loves dinosaurs when they are in fact in danger of becoming bored of them.
Seems every other film now has some kind of prehistoric beastie in it.

.. still, whenever I show the
Meet the Robinsons trailer to anyone,
"I have a big head, and little arms" gets the biggest laughs, without fail.

Yeah, and I love the caffeine patch gag as well!
(I could probably use one of those.

)

The thing that makes tiny different is that he looks so funny,
When is the last time we had a funny dinosaur?
I love the way he's animated when he waves his little arms around

Eh, I think it's a bit annoying. Tiny always makes me smile though.

Count me as someone who has NEVER understood the public fascination with dinosaurs.
I guess it comes as no surprise that I DON'T count the Jurassic Park movies in my top 100, let alone 1000, favorite movies of all time?

I'm not a big fan of
Jurassic Park (for my own reasons), but I do think dinosaurs are awesome. Though, I agree with Ben, that they are in danger of being 'over-used' in marketing circles.

What about the T-Rex in
Toy Story /
Toy Story 2 ..? Though, he wasn't a 'real' dinosaur .. but that's what made him funny!

See, this is the funny thing...
When I saw the TV commercial for "Meet The Robinsons" and they showed the dinosaur scene in it, the first thing I thought was "Gee, he looks an AWFUL LOT like that Toy Story plastic dinosaur!"
Even the gag in the scene WAS THE SAME. Where have we heard THOSE SAME COMPLAINTS from a T-Rex before?
Yeah, it's become cliche already.
