Dinosaurs, Weird Animals, and More!

The DVD has arrived! It contains the shows "Dinosaurs Dinosaurs Dinosaurs," "Prehistoric World," and "The Wonderous World of Weird Animals"! You can also see me in the bonus feature "Dinosaurs Then & Now," where we toured the various places filmed for the Dinosaur shows all over L.A.






Also included on the DVD are the bonus features of "The Dinosnore," which has clips from Return of Dinosaurs (something more than a few of your had asked me about), as well clips from the Gary and Eric special on Ray Harryhausen, along with some good ol' Dino Bloopers.

You can order both DVD's here, for all your Gary and Eric Dinosaur needs.

Also remember that are still a few soundtrack CD's from the show you can order from the same site, so be sure to pick those up while they still last!

Gary and Eric at Kingdom of the Dinosaurs




Here is some raw footage of Gary and Eric at Knotts Berry Farm, on their now defunct ride, Kingdom of the Dinosaurs (1987-2004). You can see a lot of good information on the ride here at the Knotts Preserved website, http://www.knottspreserved.com/Site/1982_-_2010/Pages/Kingdom_of_the_Dinosaurs.html

This was shot for Son of Dinosaurs, and you may recognize some of the cuts, only now you can hear Richard Jones in the background!

And don't forget about the Kickstarter! We're halfway there and need to keep the momentum going to get all the dinosaur show re-released in their DVD glory!

Kickstart A Dinosaur! Save DINOSAURS, DINOSAURS, DINOSAURS From Extinction!


Richard Jones, producer of the Gary and Eric documentaries, has just launched a Kickstarter page to help drum up funds for the next Gary and Eric dinosaur show DVD!


http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dinos/save-dinosaurs-dinosaurs-dinosaurs-from-extinction
Click that! ^

Is your favorite show not on the first DVD?! (Dinosaurs Dinosaurs Dinosaurs sadly isn't!) Then I bet it's probably on the second! With Kickstarter, you can pledge to donate money (and receive various rewards) and you won't be charged unless the project completes its goal; virtually a non-losing proposition!

I've just donated, but between you and me I have my eye on that Grand Tour package sitting around the 2.5k mark...if any 3 people wanna split  625 bucks with me we, drop me a line...

In any case, if you love dinosaurs, if you love Gary and Eric and if you love opening your wallet and pledging money to back wonderful projects such as this one, then who am I to stop you?! Go ahead! And be sure to spread the word to all dinosaur and Gary/Eric fans. Let's do this, people!

Eric and Gary and a Whole Bunch O' Dinos



Here's a promotional pitch from Gary and Eric to sell the show for potential syndication. It was never used, however, as the shows were picked up to air on the Disney Channel.
