Pangea - The Neverending World (also called Rexy) is a series of Hungarian 3D animated short films, by the animation studio Aenima CGS.

The shorts are 7 to 9 minutes in length, and they follow the adventures of a young Tyrannosaurus rex named Rexy.All shorts can be viewed for free here on Aenima CGS's YouTube channel. |

Papa Wolf: In Rexy and the Volcano, it's Rexy's father who shows up and saves his son from a trio of hungry raptors. |

Paddleball Shot: There's a handful of these, just for the sake of showing off the 3D effects; e.g. vines hanging towards the camera in the opening scene, and a pterosaur screaming at the camera. |

Spinosaurus Versus T. rex |
| | Pangea – The Neverending World (Animation) / int_291f9450 |
comment |
Spinosaurus Versus T. rex: Towards the end of the original short, an enormous Spinosaurus tries to devour Rexy, but his mother arrives and manages to scare the Spinosaurus away. Rexy meets the Mountain King's main plot is built around this trope, as the eponymous Mountain King is a terrifying Spinosaurus (living on a mountain instead of near any body of water) who also happens to be a father, and Rexy befriends his child. Rexy's father first attacks the Mountain King to protect his child, but after seeing that their children are getting along, the adults also put their conflict aside. |

Same Plot Sequel |
| | Pangea – The Neverending World (Animation) / int_2df3589 |
comment |
Same Plot Sequel: Rexy and the Volcano is pretty much a re-hash of the first short: Rexy strays away while his parents are asleep, encounters a bunch of colorful creatures, then gets menaced by a predator but gets saved just in time by one of his parents. |

Speech-Impaired Animal: Most of the time, Rexy just makes random baby sounds (pretty much constantly). However, sometimes you can hear actual words in his chatter (most notably, "mama"). |

Harmless Freezing: In the fourth short, the Arambourgiania carries Rexy so high up that icicles start to grow around his body and he soon becomes rigid. After falling in warm water, he thaws and is back to being healthy. |

comment |
All Flyers Are Birds: In Rexy and the Hungry Birds, the Ludodactylus-like villainous pterosaurs have grasping feet, the Pterodaustro make flamingo-like noises, and the Arambourgiania builds a bird nest on top of a cliff with a single egg, from which a fluffy, egret-like chick hatches. Heck, even the short's title calls them "birds" despite clearly being pterosaurs. |

Public Domain Soundtrack: After Rexy's mother rescues him from the Spinosaurus, their happy reunion is accompanied by "The Blue Danube Waltz" by Johann Strauss II, which continues into the end credits. Rexy Meets the Mountain King, naturally, uses Edvard Grieg's "In the Hall of the Mountain King" in its soundtrack. |

Awe-Inspiring Dinosaur Shot: Half of the movie plays out like this; a baby Tyrannosaurus rex named Rexy is used as a tracking shot, which then transitions to a flock of Pteranodon flying over a ravine. Later on, Rexy is running past a herd of sauropods having a fun adventure where, oddly enough, a Hard Rock track plays throughout. |

comment |
Terror-dactyl: The eponymous "birds" in Rexy and the Hungry Birds are actually scary-looking pterosaurs resembling Ludodactylus, with crooked, toothy beaks, short crests, covered in dark fuzz, with bird-like grasping feet. Two other pterosaur species, based on Pterodaustro and Arambourgiania, appear in the short, but they are much friendlier and less menacing. |

The Spinosaurus in the third short, despite getting redesigned with paddle-like tails according to more recent discoveries about the species, still have long hind legs and pronated hands. Furthermore, they live on top of a mountain instead of a wetland area (which the first short got right). |
