Anyway, back on topic: can anyone with good genetics knowledge tell me what it would take to clone a T-Rex?
You'd have to find a functional T-Rex somatic cell, extract a functional nucleus. Then you have to find a functional egg cell from some related species. Remove its nucleus, and replace it with the somatic T-Rex nucleus. Then "activate" the egg cell. Cross your fingers and hope that it starts dividing and develops into an embryo etc.

I think it would be easier to dress up an ostrich. Probably would fool a lot of people too.
