Having seen Jurassic World a few days ago, I'm not entirely convinced that it was meant to be taken seriously. It came across more like a comedy that intentionally misrepresented itself than anything else.

Also, he was literally me when I was 5. Like, it's kind of uncanny; even my family members pointed it out. I also recognized several of the toy dinosaurs in his room as ones that I had when I was little. :3:

I didn't recognize any of his toy dinosaurs; I did recognize several of his toy robots.

You're absolutely right, though, that Chastain is ultimately to blame, and 'the power of family' becomes an excuse for righteous violence against the diabolical, anti-harmonious iRex (wasn't it originally called the Diabolus Rex?). It's a scapegoat.

Anti-harmonious? She literally devours her only family.

And then of course the kid goes bonkers on all the little info-slabs as if looking up basic facts is much more enjoyable than the living feats of creation that are on a tour.

In my experience, this is true to real life.

This is still the best comedy of 2015. I don't know why you guys hated it so much.

When I left the theater I was certain that it was meant to be a disaster comedy in the vein of Airplane or the like.
I'm still not convinced that it isn't.
