Even if thats there explanation I find it highly inconsistent that they look more normal on the power coins than they do as zords.

Counter argument: 20 years ago it wasn't a widely accepted fact and what was presented in media was widely accepted as true in the scientific community.

Also, Spinosaurus-es were quadrupeds, but we only found that shit out last year (Or 2 years ago, don't remember)

Fair point. Maybe they know more about what dinos look like than we do. Who knew T-Rex had cannon arms and a laser gun on its back?

Also a fair point. Although, really. I'm withholding judgment until the movie is given a chance to explain itself.

Interestingly the 3 Dino Sentai teams show the progress of our knowledge on Dino's by their T Rexes.
Zyuranger was the classic lumbering Kangaroo, Abaranger moved to the modern theropod gait and Kyoryuger finished with Gabutyra having feathers on his head.

Regardless of scientific accuracy, I think an upright design would've allowed them to be more reminiscent of the original while keeping the alien look.

Humans aren't aliens with supposedly super-advanced technology capable of creating giant metal dinozords and morphing human beings into Iron Man ripoffs.

Anything that big with that many teeth is terrifying, no matter how fluffy.

No kidding.

it's almost like this movie's art direction is just incredibly bland and unoriginal, as evident by it's obvious aping of a style popularized by another successful franchise based around converting robots.

Isn't that still up for debate?

The design isn't too bad, but it just reminds me too much of a knock off.

Look, I just want to see the Mammoth.

That's my thing. The toy looks trash; I'm not denying that. I'm only defending the actual dinosaur design, which I don't see much of a problem with personally.

People are just looking for reasons to be disappointed. They both want the movie to be good (or at the very least say they do), but want to find things to complain about/trash it over.

See: Transformers movies.
