[edit] Chronology is wrong

Has anyone actually seen Dinosaur, the movie in which Savage supposedly starred in 1980. Well, I saw that movie many times as a child (the version I owned was actually called Dinosaurs!, not Dinosaur), and there was NO FRIGGIN WAY that it was shot in 1980.

He's definintely a schoolboy, age 9-10, NOT a 4 year-old toddler. I know on his IMDB bio it reads, "he began acting at age 4 in the movie Dinosaur (1980)," but anyone who's seen the movie can tell you this is hogwash. Either that film did not come out in 1980, or perhaps the scenes with Savage were added much later.

You might believe I'm talking about 2 different movies, but the movie I saw definitely matches the description of Dinosaur found on Wikipedia and elsewhere--the film involving claymation and a boy who has to give a report on dinosaurs at school. Think about it--would the primary character in a plot centering around a boy giving a report at school be played by a 4 year-old?.


You are completely right. In fact the claymation parts are from 1980, but the live action parts are from the late 80s (i think 87) and Savage filmed them at 11. Arthurian Legend 14:58, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No homepage...

Many have asked why put anything in the "homepage" section of the actors' bio box if there is no official website?

Why not? 2 reasons.

First, it saves the user a lot of wasted time on search engines looking for one.

Second, it gives the impetus for these poeple to get an official website!

'Nuff said?

[edit] Ethnicity?

Any reliable information about Fred Savage's ethnicity? Siyavash 20:30, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DEAD???

Is he really dead? That must be wrong, IMDB doesnt say that he is dead.

[edit] Fred was in an episode of Seinfeld

Could this be added?

[edit] Hair movement

No mention of his trademark eyebrow-lift-which-shifts-the-entire-scalp-backward?

[edit] Kim Possible

He was a voice talent credited in an Episode of Kim Possible Season 2 "Go Team Go", but I'm not sure which persona he took

[edit] Why?

Why does he looks like a kid on the picture on this article? If you can calculate he should be 31 by now, so that image doesn't look valid to me. Just a drop-by comment. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 01:10, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

The picture of him is from 1989, but strangely he was active since 1982, when he was 6. Weird. —Coastergeekperson04's talk@12/20/2007 01:38
