I don't really have a favorite but I will chime in and say I don't believe the default chronology of dinosaurs we are taught in school. I believe people and dinosaurs lived side by side and that they didn't go extinct until relatively recent times. There is a school of thought that rejects the idea of mass extinction millions of years ago, or the zany idea that dinosaurs turned into birds, and claims dinosaurs became extinct gradual over time like all other species. It is also believed that the last dinosaurs were still alive a few thousand, and some believe even a few hundred, years ago. Obviously all of the chronologies have problems but the recent extinction theory seems to hold up a little better than it's peers from what I've read, even if it isn't super popular.
