Karl and David wash up on the shore of a large uncharted island. Frank saves his sons, but has trouble escaping the crashed plane as his seatbelt fails to release. After flying into a storm, Karl struggles, causing Frank to retake control before it crashes into the ocean. It was soon followed by a television series which only lasted for one season.Ī pair of teenage half-brothers, Karl and David Scott, are on a flight with their father Frank on his private plane when Karl takes over the controls, so his father can fall asleep. It received an Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Miniseries, Movie or a Special. The miniseries premiered as installments of The Wonderful World of Disney from May 12–14, 2002 on ABC. This score is performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Geoffrey Alexander. The original score was composed by Trevor Jones. The story in the film contains references to many of the characters in the book series, with some of their descendants occupying key roles in the plot. The boys' father's plane crashes into the sea and they get stranded on Dinotopia, where they must adjust to a new society. The main characters are two American teenage boys from a contemporary time frame (unlike the 19th century castaways in the books-the film thus loses some of the classicism of the original books). The miniseries uses plot details from Gurney's first two Dinotopia books, Dinotopia (1992) and Dinotopia: The World Beneath (1995), although it takes place in a time farther into the future. It is based on the fictional world of Dinotopia, a utopia in which anthropomorphic dinosaurs and humans coexist, created by American author James Gurney. Dinotopiaĭinotopia is a four-hour (three-episode) TV miniseries co-produced by Walt Disney Television and Hallmark Entertainment. For other uses, see Dinotopia (disambiguation).
