Apatosaurus and modern birds. I like many species of the Apatosaurus, although the brontosaurus seems to stand out for me. Although I definitely prefer modern birds over the two. Then again I like all birds in general.

Man I have always loved dinosaurs, even as a kid, screw those barbies, give me dinos. Even after not having been into dinos for years, I still remember my favourites. 

 

I would say Dimetrodon but that ain't a dinosaur.

I would also say Triceratops but that doesn't exist anymore. 

 

So I guess I'll say, any kind of raptors, Coelophysis, Compsognathus, Spinosaurus, Dilophosaurus, Pteranodon (even though its not really a dino), Troodon, Carnotaurus, Tyrannosaurus,  etc

 

I think I've said enough.

Quetzalcoatlus. Yes, I know, not technically a dinosaur. Still I've always wished we lived on a slightly different Earth. With animal husbandry, but of creatures large and strong enough to sustain a human rider in flight. 

 

Even taking that aspect out, isn't it just crazy that something as big as giraffe once flew threw Earth's skies?!

 

If I had to pick a favorite dinosaur specifically, I'd say Therizinosaurus. Herbivores but those MASSIVE CLAWS are just so damn awesome and no doubt would have been as effective as weapons as much as they were for eating.

Triceratops.

 

Ever since I was a kid I always had an affinity for this species. Cera was probably my favorite from Land Before Time because of that. XD

My favorite is the Brontosaurus (with its long neck), apparently it's the same as the "Brachiosaurus"?

The species that was named Brontosaurus was thought to be within the genus Apatosaurus but an analysis says the name Brontosaurus can be used in science.

Same as Brachiosaurus? Not at all, What you posted is Brachiosaurus, while Brontosaurus has recently been reclassified from Apatosaurus excelsus. In 1903, what little Brontosaurus specimens were available to science were deemed to be the same as the fossils of Apatosaurus. However, thanks to recent studies of more plentiful specimens, we know can confirm that Brontosaurus was its own genus after all. Here's a reconstruction on what it may have looked like:

My favorite dinosaurs are ones that aren't purple, small, and annoying.
