@Styracosaurus Rider - Is that genetics stuff just because people were thinking that T. rex was the only dinosaur ever and the chicken was the only bird ever? Dromaeosauridae was far more closely related to the basal members of the modern day Aves than any of Tyrannosauroidea. And it's the Harry Potter Basilisk that's in this fight, the one placed in Hogwarts Castle by Salazar Slytherin himself, not any old 'generic mythology' basilisk. I don't think roosters were at all mentioned in The Chamber of Secrets. And the T. rex in Jurassic Park is said to hunt by sight, so when it looks at its opponent, it'll end up looking it in the eye, and "instant death awaits any who gaze into the Basilisk's eyes".
