‘Jurassic Park’ Would Be Way Funnier If It Starred The Dinosaurs From ‘Dinosaurs’

Do people still love the ’90s Jim Henson series Dinosaurs, or do they simply love to hate Donald Trump? It’s a question I’ve been asking myself since a video comparing the two went viral several months ago. Again, there are those people who really love dinosaurs in general, but that couldn’t possibly translate to the numbers that video reached.

Fortunately, it appears that people really do respond to the old ABC sitcom, even without the POTUS being involved. That was the lesson learned on Twitter last night when a single tweet from Jen Lewis changed the world. Or, at least that segment of the world that loves ’90s nostalgia.

Here’s the tweet, along with the individual pictures that came with it:

Jurassic Park Starring The Dinosaurs From Dinosaurs Is Way Funnier

The response was so overwhelmingly positive that a second tweet complete with even more shots of the Sinclair family simply had to be blasted out to the adoring public.

Need more confirmation that this mashup needs to happen on the big screen? Say no more, as Jen went ahead and provided proof of concept. It’s safe to say our love for the premise won’t be going extinct anytime soon.

Gotta love a movie with a perfect ending.

Meanwhile, on that other major social media platform: If Jurassic Park Took Place on Facebook

If you couldn't tell by his photo, dignity flew out the window long ago for Cory. But that just means that nothing is off limits, making him the perfect fit to write for Mandatory. Hobbies include: eating pizza, thinking about going for a jog today, writing memes that no one finds funny, and wondering what life would be like if he'd actually put forth the effort to make something of it 10 years ago. He also owns two other hats (not pictured).
