(I'm not sure how old they're supposed to be. So, there are these two half-brothers, David and Karl Scott, who have nothing in common and don't seem to like each other much. Oonu is played by Colin Salmon, whom I've seen in a number of things in the years since this came out, though the one I immediately recognized him from is Arrow. Rosemary is played by Alice Krige, whom I know from Star Trek: First Contact.

Cyrus is played by David Thewlis, whom I feel like I must have seen in something (or maybe I've just heard his name before). David is played by Wentworth Miller, whom I vaguely know from Prison Break. Oh, and I should mention some of the actors are a bit familiar to me from other things, whether I saw them before or after this first aired. It was definitely worth watching, though. But a lot of the actual writing and acting weren't so good. The visual effects were alright, and I guess the story was basically okay. I didn't like it quite as much as I expected to. (Aside from the miniseries and the TV series, Sonar's website mentions seven other Dinotopia productions, which I assume were direct-to-video or something.) Well, now that I've seen the miniseries. I should also mention that there was a TV series spun off from it, later in 2002, but I definitely never watched that. Anyway, it's not important, because I've seen it now. I am quite capable of watching something like this and then forgetting all the details, but it's also possible there was some reason I didn't watch it, back then. But otherwise, the whole plot and all the characters seemed completely unfamiliar. And one of the main characters, Marion, definitely looked familiar to me. I remember the basic premise about dinosaurs and humans living in harmony on a large island called Dinotopia, which is cut off from the rest of world. in fact, before watching it on DVD in 2014, I thought I had seen it, but now I'm not so sure. It first aired on The Wonderful World of Disney in 2002, and I remember wanting to see it at the time. This is based on a series of books that I've never read.
