Well, when I was very, very little, my cousin and I were absolutely obsessed with dinosaurs. I mean OBSESSED. We lived and breathed dinosaurs back then (mid to late 80s). What kid isn't at that age (especially among boys)?

So he had a whole crop of really awful dinosaur movies that he and I would watch over and over and over and OVER again. I'm talking sci-fi B movies from the 60s and 70s. They were terrible, but we thought they were the coolest things in the world (even though we would make fun of them while watching them).

Some examples were "The Land Time Forgot," and "The Last Dinosaur."

But our favorite was "Planet of the Dinosaurs." It's a weirdo 70s movie about a bunch of space travelers who crash land on a...well...planet of dinosaurs. We watched that more than any of the others.

Recently, I found "Planet of the Dinosaurs" on Amazon.com for a measly 5 bucks and decided to order it. I am completely honest in saying that the last time I saw that movie was before I was 6 (probably younger). That would be about 16 or more years since I've seen it.

I'm waiting for it to get here any day now. It's stupid sounding, but it's going to bring back a lot of fond memories.
