We all know that dinosaurs are AWESOME. No two ways about it. But I want to know what all you think. What's the awesomest dinosaur, and why is it awesome?

Being a fan of Paleontology, I have to say that I love dinosaurs. Triceratops, are by far my favorite herbivores. For carnivores I have to go with the Giganotosaurus.
EDIT: Why it is awesome. Well this is most a memory of my childhood, but I remember clearly to have seen an image depicting a Triceratops fighting a T-Rex and winning. In fact I find all ceratopsians awesome.
Giganotosaurus on the other hand is the best predator I know of. T-Rex is great and all but there is still debate if it was really a predator or a mere scavenger. Giganotosaurus is bigger than the T-Rex but its design leaves no doubt that it was a predator.

I always like Stegosaurus because of a trip to the natural history museum when I was about 7. David Attenborough was there doing signings for a book about penguins (which I have) and he asked me if I knew what dinosaurs was on his tie and I was like "Come on David, even a fool would know that's a Stegosaurus!"
Ankylosaurus is also my favourite herbivor, and the way it was speculated how it could kick T-rex ass was great. Wish to see a real T-rex skeleton damaged by the blunting attacks of ankylosaurus.
My favourite carnivor is allosaurus fragilis.

Stegosaurs were always my favorite. I don't know why, I guess I just dug the aesthetics of the plates alternating along the spine and culminating in the awesome tail spikes.
Protoceratops WILL F**K YOU UP!
Slightly off-topic, has anyone played the board game called "Survival Or Extinction"?
I always use Protoceratops. It has the WORST stats, but feels so very satisfying when you out-compete someone using deinonychus or tyrannosaurus.

Torvosaurus. It wasn't the biggest predator around but with a name like "Savage Lizard", who's going to tell it that to it's face?
May I also add, the real life deathclaw.
These set of claws are in the Natural history museum in London.
I believe that what the rest of the dinosaur looks like is unknown, but fuck me.. That's the arms of a deathclaw surely?
Anybody care to give me some more info please?
