The fact that a freaking Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic has more accurate dinosaurs than most dinosaur documentaries I know of.
MUSTHAVEMUSTHAVEMUSTHAVE

*cough* anywho..
that is awesome, even fat hadrosaurs (I think they are hadrosaurs and not a similar group, either way its a plus)
well feathered rex
the dromaeosaurs have pretty good feathers, the hands are bare but most docus aren't even that good (as you said)
pretty thickly quilled/protofeathered trike, which is just epic
general proportions are all pretty good

Oh come on, dude! Accurate dinosaurs are accurate dinosaurs, the medium doesn't really matter to me. Especially since children's comics will probably reach a wider audience than documentaries. :)

And children will know about accurate dinosaurs instead of lumbering beasts.
What happened to Rex from Toy Story. Woody shouldn't be on that Tyrannosaurus. Woody and T.Rex
And something very annoying- Posted Image

When fanboys cry their eyes out over a dinosaur being given a new name or declared a member of another species, as if the animal itself has somehow ceased to exist. Just take that whole Torosaurus/Triceratops fiasco from a few years back, it's a perfect case in point.

Even one guy said that he doesn't like Anatotitan being renamed to Edmontosaurus instead because it's easier to remember. That really annoys me.

Oh and about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, they even had terrestrial Azhdarchid, complete with Pycnofibers.

Okay really. Female dinosaurs are clearly not more colorful than males. We even see it on birds where males are the pretty boys and females are more drab. It is just people think females are the entertainers of males. Posted Image

The only thing wrong with this is Styracosaurus lack of Quills, and both are just abit Skinwrapped

And the DR Eoraptor males are Still pretty colourful, The only thing is the Tails on the Females are abit too Speculative with little evidence, but its still an interesting idea. The DR Eoraptor Males where being chosen by the Females still, so the Flagtail was more or less "hey, im interested in procreating with one of you" and when the tail falls shes not interested.

Well a female eoraptor doesn't need a flag tail to say if she's interested or not. Also I don't think the tails were that mobile.

There are some species were the female is the one doing the coutship, so I don't see what's wrong with Eoraptor doing that too.

You are not completely right....

While most male animals especially birds, are more beautiful than female. There are some case that female are more beautiful and is even the one that court the male first.

Painted Snipe for example. Female is more colorful and bond with several males like harem. Males then have to incubate and take care of all the chicks.

Other example are Cassowaries and some species of jacanas.

And in emus, the females fight for males instead :P . DR might have silly scenes and animal behavior, but I could consider the Eoraptor behavior possible enough.
