So, I'm currently taking a look into a documentary called T. rex: An Evolutionary Journey. Here's a link to it for anyone interested in seeing it, finding what they like about it, any inaccuracies and/or outdated information (of course!), etc. www.yuyutv.com/video/013549v/t-rex-an-evolutionary-journey/One of the interesting things I just saw is Bill Sellers as one of the consultants on the doc, particularly when discussing speed. Apparently his models suggest "average" top speeds of 30 km/h for Tyrannosaurus. This seems more or less consistent with his 7.7 m/s figure in his 2017 paper, and seems reasonable enough. Edit: this documentary is older than I thought. It dates to 2016. That explains quite a bit. Edit 2: apparently some context has been lost between the original version and the English version.

I'll watch more when I have more time but here are 2 things I noted from the first minute: -They already seem to be using the feathered T rex that we sometimes see -There seems to be some kind of allosaur in the film, which is....odd

It's probably their depiction of Siats. It's used for context in the evolutionary history of tyrannosaurs.
