Done by the guy who directed JW1 and is doing 3. Very excited to see what 3 is now.

 

[Maskull]

Comically schlocky.

 

[MechanicusAdmin]

I admit, I want to see more. Those end credit scenes were pretty good too.

 

[InsolentGaylord]

Unironically better than Fallen Kingdom by a long shot.

Ending was kinda implausible and there was probably some pro-black anti-white message but it was still pretty good.

 

[Polyboros2]

Still looks fucking awful.

Edit to expand on: It's bizarre to me how every sequel has to take the worst scene from the original (those kids not getting killed in the kitchen cause their fucking superheros) and make sure to included it but worse. You had Ian Malcom's Eddie Murphy dark mulatto daughter going gymkata on velociraptors, a 10 year old boy surviving for like 2 weeks thanks to dinosaur pee.

This might be the worst, at first I thought it was going to be the red necks saving the day, but no, the 8 year old girl fired a three round burst in a 8 in radius with a crossbow that has the pull strength of a automatically closing door.

 

[Truthboi]

I wonder what they’re going to do with that little girl given she has blood on her hands from freeing all those dinosaurs

I really appreciated the effort the writers put in to make her character an even more abnoxious know it all then Tim in the first movie before turning an 8yr old girl into freakin' Rambo.
Still more believable then seeing niggers on a camping trip to the woods though, I mean, c'mon man, is Jurassic a science fiction move or a fuckin' fantasy film?

It looks like absolute dogshit.

 

[Marissa Moira]

How soon until it becomes Dino Riders?

 

[Polyboros2]

What's bizarre to me is, probably due to executive ass covering, it's like they are having to use all the scripts that failed to be Jurassic Park 4. Dinosaurs engineered to be super soldiers and dinosaurs get loose and terrorize civilization were both starting production plots for JP4.

They should be such simple movies, just spectacle pieces with basic plots and they'd be fine, but they all(I think 3 actually was the least terrible in the regards, and is why I barely remember it rather than clearly remembering it being total shit) seem like made by committee, "you gotta have this, this, and this scene" and it doesn't matter if it's consistent or you have to break the plot to make it happen. They keep doing dumb stuff to make the plot happen and it (and the lack of feathers) ruin what should be my kind of movies.

She loosed two bolts in under a second and they did not hit at the same time either if you paid close attention to strike pattern. I laughed loudly at that. This is movie I would see in theater but only with flask.

This shit is exactly what I'm talking about in my previous post (that I fat thumbed and accidental posted halfway typed out).

This short was fine, seeing the dino fight was great, I felt sad when the baby Triceratops got grabbed and excited when the big bull came in to even the odds (not strong feelings, but enough to engage with the art), and it was a bit silly but still intense as they were trapped in the slowly coming apart RV as the Allosaurus worked in closer. Then they fucking ruin it all by having something shitting in your hat exceptional.

It completely pulls me out of something I was mildly enjoying and makes my opinion of it take a full 180. I loved dinosaurs my whole life, Jurassic Park was one of the biggest movies of my childhood, they have to work to make me hate a Jurassic Park movie (I only saw 3 once in theatres, but I thought it was better than two and passable although not great), but every fucking time that have to fart cocaine directly into their brain and fuck up an easy sell to me.

I love JP! Tat's it... I don' care about anythign else not even my spellling, yay!

The scene of the kids surviving in the kitchen is good because of how improbable it is, yet things like this can happen. Also, it's meant to prove Malcom is right: 1. life is very chaotic (kids beating dinosaurs) and 2. life, or nature, finds a way (children, being less biased than adults, have more 'raw' survival instincs and act more natural). Repeating or trying to replicate the scene was a mistake, I agree with that. It goes against chaos if it's a pattern. Although I think the third kid surviving ain't that odd. Little mammals lived along dinosaurs.

This might be the worst, at first I thought it was going to be the red necks saving the day, but no, the 8 year old girl fired a three round burst in a 8 in radius with a crossbow that has the pull strength of a automatically closing door.

With that I agree. I'm kinda disappointed it was the kid rather than a group of people, proving humans are also adapting (heh) at the new dinosaurs roaming around. They weren't that much dinosaurs that were released, IICR, so the most likely credible situation is that some crazy libertarian just killed a few with grenade and a flamethrower. Only the people working for Ingen are stupid in this universe.

I wonder what they’re going to do with that little girl given she has blood on her hands from freeing all those dinosaurs

First thought I had when watching this.

To me, aesthetic aspects of the dinosaurs do not matter much to my appreciation. Feathers? Whatever, they didn't have them before anyway. Velociraptors weren't human-sized, dilophosaurs weren't venom-spitting frill necks, and T-Rex sense wasn't based on movement. I can still like the film.

What bugs me is when the dinosaurs are given undue intelligence under the excuse of "muh clones". The Indo Rex just knew the tracking device was monitoring it and knew removing it would allow for an ambush. Oh look, the dinosaurs are coordinating a WWE tag team against it, I can't wait for the T-Rex to use the chair at the end! That's to say nothing about the dumbass idea of dinosaurs having revolutionary military applications, when guns and planes and tanks exist. Fuck off.

I have no aspirations for a third film when the other two stank anyway.

Not soon enough!

The most unrealistic part in this dinosaur (mini)movie is that the father stuck around for two years.

There are five ethnicities amongst those three kids, they're is no dads around.
