THE GOOD DINOSAUR opens in theaters November 25, 2015! I haven’t decided yet how I feel about this new Pixar movie. I love if not all at least most things that come from Pixar but this one has me just a little on the fence yet. The lead dinosaur is adorable – there’s no doubt about that. But I’m afraid there may be spots that may be a little scary. I can’t imagine Pixar would let that happen so I’m hoping to see some more trailers over time that will make me feel a little better about it.
“The Good Dinosaur” asks the question: What if the asteroid that forever changed life on Earth missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct? Pixar Animation Studios takes you on an epic journey into the world of dinosaurs where an Apatosaurus named Arlo makes an unlikely human friend. While traveling through a harsh and mysterious landscape, Arlo learns the power of confronting his fears and discovers what he is truly capable of.
