His and Cecilia's impassioned pleas and loving touch restore the dinosaurs' sentience. Rex grabs and prepares to eat Screweyes, but Louie steps in and talks the Tyrannosaurus out of his vengeance. That night, Louie and Cecilia sneak into the circus, where the dinosaurs perform their terrifying act – Screweyes hypnotizing Rex – before the trick is hindered by a crow turning on flares. The next morning, a friendly clown named Stubbs, who works for Professor Screweyes, informs the two kids about Screweyes' plan to exploit the dinosaurs for their scare potential. The dinosaurs consume the pills, which cause them to lose their intelligence and revert to their natural forms, in exchange for Screweyes restoring Louie and Cecilia to humans and releasing them. When the dinosaurs arrive to save Louie and Cecilia, Screweyes devolves the children into mindless chimpanzees using "Brain Drain", pills that are the polar opposite of Brain Grain. Unaware of Screweyes' dark nature, the children sign a contract to perform in his troupe. Meanwhile, Louie and Cecilia meet Professor Screweyes, who is running the horror-themed "Eccentric Circus". The citizens panic, causing the dinosaurs to flee to Central Park while being pursued by the police and the army. The illusion falls apart, however, when Rex accidentally deflates an Apatosaurus balloon after performing a musical number during the parade thus blowing their cover. To avoid being noticed as real dinosaurs, they pose as animatronics in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. They encounter two children willing to help them find the museum – a boy named Louie, who is running away to join the circus and a girl named Cecilia. Neweyes drops the dinosaurs in the East River in the year 1993, but they are unable to meet up with Dr. Julia Bleeb, who will guide them to the Museum of Natural History, and warns them to avoid Professor Screweyes, his unhinged brother who causes mischief after having lost his left eye to a crow, several years ago. Neweyes welcomes them aboard his ship, explains his plan to take them to Dr. The dinosaurs Neweyes has collected include Rex, a blue Triceratops named Woog, a purple Pteranodon named Elsa, and a green Parasaurolophus named Dweeb. He and his alien assistant Vorb go back in time to collect dinosaurs, give them the cereal 'Brain Grain' to bestow them sentience, and send them to the present day. Then, a scientist, Captain Neweyes, wants children of the present day to see real dinosaurs from the Mesozoic era. He explains to Buster that he was once a ravaging dinosaur, and proceeds to tell his personal story.Ī long time ago, Rex was chasing a small Thescelosaurus. In 1993 New York City, a young bluebird named Buster runs away from his siblings and meets an intelligent orange Tyrannosaurus named Rex, who is playing golf. The film became a box-office bomb, grossing only $9.3 million worldwide, and received mixed reviews from critics: while its animation, score, and voice performances were praised, most criticisms targeted its story, pacing, and lack of character development.
