After a rather lengthy development process - which resulted in the removal of the original director, and a shift from a Summer 2014 release date to a Thanksgiving 2015 bow, Pixar has finally taken the covers off of The Good Dinosaur.

Sure, we had a teaser trailer earlier this year, but this is the first true footage we’re seeing of the movie.

Starring a dinosaur named Arlo, along with his pet human, it’s a unique take on a “boy and his dog" adventure, while also exploring the idea of what would’ve happened if dinosaurs never become extinct.

The effort in the animation truly shines here, as Pixar delivers some of the most realistic and lush scenery they’ve ever produced (seriously, watch this trailer in HD if you can), and while that can be odd, juxtaposed with the stylized look of Arlo, I cannot wait to see the adventure Pixar has in store for us this Thanksgiving.

Heck, maybe we can get two good dinosaur movies AND two good Pixar movies in one year!

The Good Dinosaur hits theaters on November 25, 2015.
