swooned This rings out like the true story of Indiana Jones. Well meaning palaeontologists find great prize, look at how to present that to the world and keeping a little local history local. In the end, the government comes, leaves the artefact in a box for years doing nothing, to be sold to a gallery. However D13 is presented, and where, is incidental. It may have ended up in a large museum anyway, which also makes sense, but the journey to get it there is abominable. To pick on the discoverers is extraordinary, especially in how it happened. To get 2 years for not filling out forms correctly? It just goes to show the complete injustice in our legal system, that personal opinions always get in the way, and that a legal find was reduced to the inabilities of politics to resolve a problem. To think a fossil goes for $7.6million, bought through MNCs, and completely disregard the discoverers who put so much care in preserving it as they could. Just goes to show what a delusion your freedom is. Tow the line, and you are in your freedom bubble. No wonder I despise the legal system for it's total lack of care. Just a bunch of power trippers who don't want to get their hands dirty.Without discoverers, pioneers, innovators, you would be left nowhere, with nothing. Don't ever forget that. Be one, work with them, or stand aside.I am so sorry for the lack of care given to the teams at Black Hill Institute. They are being treated the same way as we treat indigenous people. No class.My heart goes out to them.

adamleeplaysbball This is a must watch for anyone interested in dinosaurs and perfect for college courses.This documentary is definitely a roller coaster not like other documentaries as you learn from the hero's, the villains and you learn about corrupt law.I went and seen sue in Chicago and this definitely wasn't the story they have on Sue, so I recommend to anyone who has seen this amazing T.Rex to watch this documentary and find out how Sue nearly didn't come to the public eye, and how much of a struggle the true owners went through trying to keep her were she belonged.I wish all the best to the Larson Family.

in1984 9.1 of 10. True to its title, it is not only about the 13th tyrannosaurus rex discovered, but even more so about the hard work the paleontologists put in to recover it and maintain it in as good condition as possible. This isn't just another dinosaur quickie to grab easy money.Unlike most documentaries, it has hero and villain excitement that makes everything you learn, including about the law, taxes, prison, and government appointments, that much more interesting and easily enjoyed by those without a strong interest in paleontology or who were looking for visuals, scares, and dinosaur chases.In sum, we have an educational documentary worthy of even college courses and PhDs that also provides the intrigue of a legal or political drama. It won't be surprising to see some closely-based fictional movies popping up trying to capture this with more action, music, and sex appeal. You can't, however, count on them to deliver the depth of what you already have here.

Alha pro The documentary starts with a nice way of directing,and it shows us the main palaeontologists how they are working how they spend there time reading books and then shows us Susan Hendrickson one of the palaeontologist from them, takes a walk, an she suddenly saw something,like a stone but she thinks that it is a T-Rex's bone it was like a t-Rex spine, and then she look again closer and closer and she was sure after a wile that she discover a Tyrannosaurus Rex , she was so happy and she run to tell it to the others but after she arrived they didn't believe her, then she show them the part of t-Rex spine and they run fast to the dinosaur,and after a while they discover that it was sure a t-Rex,then they name the dinosaur Shu in memory of Susan Hendrickson. The documentary is nice until something went wrong the documentary became like a drama movie, there is nothing to understand or to show to us about palaeontologists and there work it changes the documentary and transform it to a movie, It suppose to show us about the dinosaurs.This story its nice but the documentary is going a little bit wrong.
