WTF, looking at this jurassic world size chart, for once JP franchise shows Velociraptor at a much more accurate size, if only the same could be said about the others, their sizes just look wrong, but I can't quite place my finger on how wrong.
It's made by MTV, it's not official Jurassic Park anything.
In that case, MTV shouldn't have included Chris Pratt or the Indominus rex in the chart. Misleading people, into thinking it's JP/JW related and into thinking the I.rex was a real dinosaur.

The picture says it all.

This poor Rex just looks like it's in pain. Where's the asteroid to put it out of its misery?
According to the report, it is supposed to be an allosaurus ...

Well obviously it's JP-related, I think she just means that since it's by MTV it's not official JP material.

Yes, MTV was obviously trying to do some sort of unofficial tie-in. They even used the Hasbro art for Indominus.

Here are some classical dinosaurs to ruin your day.

"Herp derp" Iguanodon.

I think this is supposed to be Megalosaurus? It looks way too mammalian though.

I personally don't see anything wrong with them, and actually quite enjoy them. Considering what they had to go on, these reconstructions are pretty good (they could be a lot worse)

What angers me more is people who reconstruct dinosaurs badly even with the wealth of evidence we have now (which they will ignore in favour of 'AWESUMBRO')

I wouldn't call these arts of old time a failure... Sure, it is ridiculously inaccurate, but we have to take it in our mind that when these picture was drawn, paleontologists know only barely know about what they were depicting. Who could know that Megalosaurus is actually bipedal creature with gracile body, big head and more bird-liked, when you only had a few materials of its bone and there is no reference of this animal group back there as well.

Impressive that we're even able to identify that as a Triceratops. I mean, it has three horns and a neck frill, but that's about as far as the resemblance to its real-life counterpart goes.
