I like how at the end of The Lost World John Hammond talks about how the DInosaurs on Site B need to be left alone. Then Jurassic World says that he signed away everything with InGen over to Masrani who immediately opened up the park again, and then the next movie goes on about how Hammond was actually working with James Cromwell to clone human beings. Just get the free trial for Apple TV and watch Prehistoric Planet for a few days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouurXEqn4BA Proper Therizinosaurus Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Jul 17, 2022 |

I'll wait until JW4, where the we finally get the sexual tyrannosaurus we've been promised. The ultimate apex (sexual) predator! C'mon science, don't stop this train wreck.

Grant's little speech to the kid about the guts spilling out and being alive while they start eating is also from the book except there it really happens to some guy. They also took inspiration from the book when the tiny dinosaurs somehow kill Peter Stormare in Lost World. They just aren't doing it exactly like in the books cause then the movies would be rated X or something.

Jurassic World is great because the CEO VP lady is literally why everything falls apart and for whatever reason morphs into the love interest and is actually good you see. Meanwhile her assistant does her job IN addition to taking care of two poo poo kids and gets brutally murdered for it. Maybe we'll finally get dinos with guns for teeth in the next one.

Weaponised dinosaurs in the hands of the foreigners to force use of armoured vehicles so the US don't retire all their tank units. It's a long play by the MIC to ensure future sales.

GetDunked posted:I haven't seen Jurassic world but after watching fallen kingdom I don't want to see it or the third one. Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it There's a part in Jurassic World where the evil scientist goes on a rant about how of course making the Super Dinosaur was stupid. This whole thing is stupid, but they're stuck with this dumb, crowd-pandering oneuppmanship because it's what the movie-going - err, uh, the park going - public demands. They don't even make the dinosaurs look real. They're intentionally making the dinosaurs look like what people think the dinosaurs should look like (because that's how they looked in previous films). I kind of liked that part, but, imo, it doesn't excuse the rest of the film. You can't just roll your eyes at the camera, go "this is so dumb", but then keep doing the dumb stuff.

For me it rang hollow. The park was crammed with people still, they still had a monopoly on the dinosaurs, and if their customer base was people who love dinosaurs then making an obviously fake one would risk splitting the fan base so to speak. You'd be better off continuing to develop new "real" species. Almost as dumb as the secret program to develop laser pointer raptors. Or an auction at a single location letting loose a handful of dinos equating to a rapid case of worldwide dinosaur infestation. I guess what I'm saying is the JW story is bad.

You Are A Elf posted:I’ll spoil this for safe measure (even though I worded it vaguely enough) about Jurassic World. Read on if you don’t care about spoilers: There's a persistent rumor that her death was one of the only scenes remaining from an early version of the script where that character mistreated and eventually abandoned the two boys that her boss forced her to babysit. The prolonged death scene would have been "earned" punishment for her choice to abandon the children, the same as Gennaro (the lawyer's) death in the original Jurassic Park. There are still traces of that plotline in earlier scenes where she's more interested in her tablet than paying attention to the kids. Then 90% of that plot got cut so they could have Chris Pratt teach Raptors to drive motorcycles or some poo poo.

Still lolling that at the idea that that death is "targeted." It is one of the longer death scenes, but it almost looks like something that was designed for 3D. Here are all the deaths from the Jurassic Park franchise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5G-6xeXFyI

Owen and Claire are two of the most boring leads of all time, and they get completely outclassed when the Jurassic Park leads show up. Even though the writing is uniformly awful, it's wild to see how much more fun Alan, Ellie, and Ian are in this stupid movie. Even if Alan becomes Indiana Jones for some reason. There's also some weird stuff about motherhood in these movies. The clone girl has this whole crisis because she thinks she's a complete clone of her Mom and not a "real" person. Then we find out her mom carried her like a normal pregnancy, so suddenly the girl is a "real" person? And Claire doesn't find fulfillment in life until she gives up her job and becomes a mom to the clone girl. It's really weird, I dunno, feels like somebody with some issues worked on the script.

In Jurassic World, you can tell Owen is a cool badass since the other characters are always commenting about how much of a cool badass he is. Also he has a motorcycle.

As soon as they were generated they were endangered species. The WWF refused to allow any cull.

But that doesn't mean we have the right to erase them from existence again! Who are we to play God?

ChickenHeart posted:Still lol'ing over the fact that an old man's lovely dinosaur park eventually causes a global catastrophe with irreparable damage to ecosystems worldwide There's some stuff about them being miracles that should be protected, which kind of loses steam when you realize how easy it apparently is to keep cloning these things. You had a couple species escape at the end of the last movie. But by this movie, Biosyn's cloned dozens of new species, presumably without needing those other dinosaurs at all. Or maybe they did? Who knows, it's not explained, there's just new dinosaurs chilling out both in the real world and at the Biosyn facility.
