Story of the Movie
The movie is about three teenagers: Timmy (Omri Katz), Jamie (Tiffanie Poston), and Mick (Shawn Hoffman). They love watching a TV show with talking dinosaurs. Timmy wants to watch it on his dad's big screen in his lab.
When they turn it on, something amazing happens! A swirling vortex pulls them right into the TV show. Now, they are inside their favorite dinosaur world!
In this new world, they meet Forry (Rob Sherwood), a Dimorphodon who can't fly. Even though he's a bit scared, Forry knows a lot about Dinosaur City. He helps guide the teens to a place called Tar Town.
There, they team up with two brave dinosaur freedom fighters. One is Rex (Patrick Labyorteaux), a big Tyrannosaurus. The other is Tops (David Jolliffe), a strong Triceratops.
