I believe that Rex from ''We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story'' would be even more 'improved'! [[User:Greyson|Greyson]] ([[User talk:Greyson|talk]]) 16:07, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

: Barney would have been more logical as it (he?) already appears on a TV in JP III :-) {{unsigned ip|108.162.254.100}}
 
 
I'd think that Dinosaur Comic's T-Rex is actually quite intelligent for a dinosaur. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.221.169|108.162.221.169]] 18:26, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 
 
"But Megan objects to this notion that the T.rex is only 20 years old, staying with the line of thought that White Hat started with."
 
This phrase is very confusing for a non-native english speaker... I nearly edited it as a mistake from the author before understanding its actual meaning.
 
Maybe it should be rephrased in a simpler way?[[Special:Contributions/188.114.110.47|188.114.110.47]] 08:55, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 
 
 
Note: There is also movie [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1204340/ Tyrannosaurus]. I though they may refer to that, with the world being in italics, but that one is not 20 years old. -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 12:52, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
 
 
I think the explanation should mention the double meaning (figurative vs. literal) of "what's eating you?", as I think most non-native speakers won't be aware of the figurative one. (For example, I only caught it the third time reading.) --[[Special:Contributions/108.162.230.119|108.162.230.119]] 12:31, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
 
:Which is? I'm not a native English speaker either, but I suppose the figurative meaning is "what's troubling you?". Oddly, [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/eating Wiktionary] was of no help. [[Special:Contributions/188.114.99.189|188.114.99.189]] 23:47, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
 
 
 
Is it just me or this comic is pretty obviously referencing Apple's ads? Like 'it's two decades old!' as they constantly need to create a new iphone, and even if nothing changes, they still fill the ad with marketing bullshit. "We improved it. Made it scarier, deadlier, smarter." All of those are subjective. [[User:Etimologyman|Etimologyman]] ([[User talk:Etimologyman|talk]]) 20:30, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
