Best. Use of a Dinosaur. Ever!

OM to the G! The synopsis for Whoopi Goldberg's 1995 movie, Theodore Rex is: "A wise-cracking police officer is forced to team up with her new partner, a sixty-five million year-old talking Tyrannosaurus Rex!" I haven't seen this movie, but if there is a god in heaven, there'll be some sort of inter-species May-December romance. By the looks of things, somebody had a mortgage to pay (of course, I'm talking about T-Rex - what's Whoopi's excuse? Ted Danson just dumped her? She was jealous of Rosie O'Donnell's sassy leather jumpsuit in Exit to Eden and was just gagging for one? She actually thought her co-star was gonna be Teddy Ruxpin?).

Please Note the following: 

1) Theodore Rex is wearing six pairs of converse. Oh yeah, 'cause in the future they don't make high-tops big enough to fit a sixty-five million year old dinosaur! Do I look like I was born yesterday?
2) Why is Theodore Rex only six inches taller than Whoopi? 
3) Rest assured Obama, even in the future, powerful men wear mom jeans.  
4) This post really has nothing to do with Barney, but I needed some justification for chatting about the movie poster. Which you can see here in its full glory. 

Anon Amazon Reviewer: "Watching this film sober - and even under the influence - is like giving birth out of your ear while simultaneously having a stroke, getting a root canal, and walking in on your parents having sex. In your bed. And as you walk in on them, you step on a rake and it hits you in the face and drives a splinter into your eye."  Best review ever? Yup.
