ASK ME ABOUT BEING ALLERGIC TO POSITIVITY

The current rumor is that the new film is a prequel based on the islands before the Park is built and that just sounds loving exhausting to me.

I wouldn't be shocked by this, but the original movie is literally "this is right before the park opens", so how much further back can they go? Are they going to cover that little cloned elephant that Hammond made?

That's my main problem with the idea. Does it turn out Alan Grant was the second choice for an expert to sign off on the park because the first expert got eaten a week early in a previously unseen adventure?

Creatively is loving sucks.

Absolutely zero clue how I misremembered that. Going senile.

You're not misremembering it entirely. He's dead but his family is suing.

You're telling me that we're facing a $20 million lawsuit from the family of that worker and Hammond couldn't even be bothered to see me?

Speaking of this scene, I loving love that ends by setting up Alan Grant with a weirdly foreboding musical sting and this line...

Because he's like me. He's a digger.

It's such a great moment that sets-up this guy who digs around in the dirt as an admirable figure and it contrast beautifully with Jurassic World where the main protagonist is a former Navy Seal.

When it smirked at the camera before attacking Ted Levine I turned to my wife and whispered "this thing's gonna talk before the end of the movie". I'm still kind of shocked it didn't, or at least that they did some weird "it has human DNA!" reveal to explain why it was such a theatrical little guy.

That reveal was so odd, because it was so obviously the original twist in Jurassic World with the I-Rex that reusing it in Dominion felt like course correction. It's then even weirder that the third film drops this storyline entirely.
