Bruton

“	I'll hold them off! You help the others!	„
	~ Bruton redeeming himself by fighting the Carnotuars to defend Aladar and his friends and his last words before his death.

Bruton is a major antagonist of Disney's 39th full-length animated feature film Dinosaur.

He is Kron's harsh second-in-command and right-hand dinosaur who supported his boss' escape plans against the Carnotaurs. However, after he was badly injured, their alliance fell apart due to Kron's social darwinistic views. He soon changes for the better thanks to Aladar's kindness.

He was voiced by late Peter Siragusa.

Biography[]

In the movie, as Aladar and his lemur family are running to escape a pack of Velociraptors, they run into the herd of dinosaurs and the leader Kron pushes Aladar out of the way telling him to stay out of his way to which Bruton yells at Aladar, "You heard Kron! Move it!" When the herd stops to find a resting spot for the night Bruton tells Kron that there's a much safer spot further down, but Kron tells Bruton that the herd will sleep where they are for the night and tells Bruton to tell the herd that they have found their resting spot for the night to which Bruton does. When Kron, Bruton, and Kron's sister Neera pass Aladar, Aladar asks Kron if he can talk to him, then Bruton snaps at Aladar and says, "Get lost, kid!" but Kron tells Bruton to relax and listens to what Aladar has to say and when Aladar asks him to slow down for the slower dinosaurs Kron tells him to let him do the thinking.

The next day, Bruton tells all the dinosaurs to get up because Kron has said that everyone goes. Aladar's lemur friend Zini make a remark about Bruton saying, "The charm never stops around here." Bruton then turns to Aladar and asks, "You say something?" to which Aladar replies, "No, sir."

Bruton then tells Aladar that he and Zini (who he calls a "little parasite") better get moving unless they have a deathwish. Zini then calls Bruton ugly under his breath. Kron tells Bruton to give the herd the orders about getting to the water on the other side to which Bruton tells the herd to keep up because if a predator catches them they're on their own and then he orders the herd to move out. On the way, Kron tells Bruton that the herd is moving too slow and Bruton says that he'll pick up the pace and orders the herd to move faster. When they reach the lake Kron and Bruton discover that the lake is a drybed with no water and Kron orders Bruton to take a scout and check the entire perimeter to see if there's any water. Bruton and the scout find no water on their search to which the scout replies, "I think we should get back." But Bruton tells him to keep it down. Then Bruton spots a shadow of a Carnotaur and tells the Scout that they should leave but a Carnotaur appears from behind and grabs the scout by the tail, killing him. Then another Carnotaur appears and tries to kill Bruton but he manages to escape with wounds. Bruton rushes back to Kron and tells him about the Carnotaurs and Kron coldy blames Bruton for leading the Carnotaurs to them saying that maybe Bruton could feed the Carnotaurs with his hide. He then orders Bruton to move the herd out to which Bruton does.

On the way Bruton is left behind to die because of his wounds but he is found by Aladar, Baylene, Url, Eema and the lemurs. Aladar offers to help Bruton but Bruton tells him that he just just needs some rest and orders Aladar to get away from him. Aladar tells Bruton that if he changes his mind that they'll be in those caves nearby. Bruton later decides to join the dinosaurs and lemurs inside the cave and Plio nurses Bruton's wounds from a plant that grew on Lemur Island. Bruton then asks why Aladar pushes the herd on with false hope, to which Plio replies it's hope that has gotten them this far. Bruton then asks why doesn't he let the herd accept their fate and that he accepted his fate which is to die in the caves. Plio tells Bruton that the plant will help him and that it's his choice not his fate to die if he chooses to give up.

That night, the two Carnotaurs appear at the cave, to which Bruton tells Aladar that they should wake the others and move deeper into the cave. However, as the dinosaurs and lemurs are moving, the Carnotaurs spot Aladar and grab him, but Bruton (remembering about what happened to the scout) pushes into battle and tells Aladar to help the others while he holds off the Carnotaurs. Bruton manages to fight off the Carnotaurs but then rocks from the cave begin to crumble on both him and the Carnotaurs. Aladar comes back and tries to help Bruton but the rocks fall on Bruton before he can. After the rocks are done falling Aladar digs through them and finds Bruton who has died from being crushed by the rocks and Aladar mourns the death of his friend to which Plio replies, "You did what you could." Though the head Carnotaur managed to survive the cave-in his sacrifice was not completely in vain, as the head Carnotaur's partner died with him.

Trivia[]

Bruton's death from the Carnotaurs before taking one with him foreshadows the climax when Kron and the last Carnotaur both died on the same day. Unlike Kron who only got himself killed for being a selfish coward who only cares about himself, Bruton knew he is going to die only when he bravely chooses to sacrifice himself when he mange to save Aladar and his friends and kills one Carnotaur by creating an avalanche which costed his life, but still has a spark of honor left in him.
- If Bruton were still alive he would already regroup with Aladar and finally made it to the nesting ground as promise. but not after they notice the entrance is block, Bruton decided to join Aladar to rescue the herd while knowing Kron will never listen to him as long as he lives. Later they would try to warn them about the sheer drop while Carnotaur is approaching ahead, Kron would already see Bruton as a traitor to him while Bruton saw him nothing but a coward after a brawl between Aladar and Kron it would be Bruton saving Aladar's life from Kron and no longer sees him as his friend he once knew, while Neera would still help Aladar up, Bruton takes commands for the herd under new leadership with Aladar , and they abandon Kron from his cruelty. The last Carnotaur will still approach but Aladar, Bruton and Neera managed to stand up to the beast, Bruton would still lead the herd to the nesting ground while Neera and Aladar would try to save Kron before his death approaches.
- Bruton serves as a lesson to Kron despite following his brutal unmerciful orders, Bruton was right about one thing when he said only as a threat "There's no water until we reach to the other side and You better keep up because if a predator catches you, you're on your own!". During the climax it was only Kron who didn't keep up to follow Aladar and Neera to get to the other side of the nesting ground because he was still selfish, overdetermine and dishonorable to listen which led a predator like Carnotaur to catch him. Plus using his own orders against him.
