First of all Dinotopia is a series of books on which said miniseries is based
Plot:
A pair of teenage, half-brothers, Karl and David Scott, take over the controls of their father Frank's private plane while he falls asleep. After flying into a storm, Frank retakes control of the plane before it crashes into the ocean. Frank had trouble escaping the crashed plane, but the brothers wash up on the shore of an uncharted continent. Looking for help, Karl and David find a man named Cyrus Crabb who leads them to Waterfall City, the capital of Dinotopia, a hidden civilization where human beings and dinosaurs peacefully coexist. In fact, some of the dinosaurs, notably a neurotic Stenonychosaurus named Zippo, possess human intelligence and speaks perfect English. Among the many rules in Dinotopia is the edict that, once an outsider arrived, he or she was never allowed to leave. As Karl and David prepare to take their rightful places in their new surroundings, both boys develop a strong bond with young Marion, who is on the verge of becoming a "matriarch" of the Dinotopian society. Unfortunately, the incursion of vicious carnivores, not to mention an unanticipated human villain, threaten to destroy Dinotopia and everyone living on the island.

So anyone?

I remember watching that series. Weren't they actually movies. There were 2 of them being 4 hours long each or something like that. I actually liked that series. I haven't watched it in a long time and would like to see it again. It was a good movie from what I remember.

I caught some of the series and i did read most the book. was interesting.

DINOTOPIA! That was back in the early 2000s! I loved watching that show, although it was not on TV for long. They have a DVD series of the show now, I saw it a year ago.

The talking dinosaurs, the tablet of rules, the royalty all came together to form a great show. I really liked the first episode, the next few were average. The search for those energy crystals to power the civilization was exciting as was when the two boys found their father.

Too bad the show did not continue after three episodes.

I know the big wigs probably deemed it too expensive which is what I'm afraid will happen to Terra Nova.
