But according to the movies all prey immediately froze and stood paralyzed while it roared and looked ferocious, so maybe it was an effective strategy.

Even the people in the movies stand there with their mouths open instead of running.

Maybe as with hippos, they're hoping to back it down by having a bigger gape - - - I would NOT recommend that strategy.

Speaking of T. rex, once you've tamed them, they're yours...

Bones near and far, autochthonous and I suspect allochthonous for the big boulder

That's a great spot, worth a visit were I to be anywhere near.

Two big rounded pieces of the bones of the Earth. These look similar to the boulder in an image I posted above, but while I strongly suspect that one is a glacial erratic, I think these formed pretty close to where they now reside.
