Top 5, in order:

Brontosaurus
Triceratops
Stegasaur
Plesiosaur
Archeopterix.
Plesiosaurs aren't dinosaurs as I'm sure you know but decent list. The reinstatement of Brontosaurus as a legit dinosaur was a fascinating story

Dinosaurs are so cool when you're primary school age aren't they. Big beasts that eat each other and destroy everything. No wonder the Power Rangers had them as avatars for their vehicles.

Someone i work with is very into dinosaurs, their favourite film is jurassic park, second favourite is jurassic park 2 etc and they were telling me that our popular conception of dinosaurs as big lizards is very wrong, they were most likely feathered and more like birds.
The guy with the long hair and cowboy hat who gets killed by the T-Rex after a snake crawls down his neck in The Lost World is based on an actual paleontologist called Robert Bakker.

I have never seen Jurassic Park, I had the impression it was a kids adventure movie like Free Willy that had somehow gained respectability
