YOU CANNOT JUDGE A DINO BY IT'S SCALES

finally watched theodore rex

it takes place in the "futuristic" world, which is really a bunch movie sets that remind me of ugly betty and toys starring robin williams with technology from the jetson's. as soon as teddy rex spoke, i recognized his voice. turns out that he's BRYAN MCKENZIE IN FATHER OF THE BRIDE. teddy doesn't really believe in violence and doesn't carry a gun. i assume in college he was into nonviolent protest and had posters of ghandi/martin luther king, jr. on his walls. he also may have had acne since he has a strong love for cookies. oh yeah, and whoopi goldberg is pretty much herself.

somehow, the two are paired together to solve a "dinoside". they go to a nightclub full of dinosaurs, and whoopi is friends with a little boy. honestly, i didn't get the plot. well, i didn't pay too much attention. something about bad guys and evolution. i don't care. 

the comedic peak was the three jokes referring to the gas we pass. theodore rex called a fart a "BUTT TRUMPET". this is a term i have never heard before, and i actually laughed enough to be embarrassed...my dad was in the room. right after that, he said he "didn't POP GAS". who POPS gas? i do now. and the third, to get information from a bad guy, the dino just sat and farted on him. 

one of the bad guys was sprayed with a weird white substance that froze him. since he had glasses, he looked like a harlequin baby. i'm not making a joke. he really did look like one.

i had totally forgotten about toys. 
gotta put that on my library list.
