Oh poo poo is there mass carnage in this? Not just 10 people getting picked off one by one are there fields of humans being systematically slaughtered by dinosaurs?

Instead of watching this movie, I just flipped to the last page of the Junior Novelization while in a store.

20000 people run across the park chaotically and they show approximately two people get pecked at off screen, and the one of three people with more than one spoken line who die in the entire movie gets flown off by a bird then both are eaten by the death whale. The 20000 people then huddle in a building for the rest of the movie while the main man and woman do everything, like a standard action movie. I do not like how one particular dinosaur was the antagonist. It was lame.

the bad guy in this movie that wasnt the evil raptor t-rex kind of looked like an evil kevin james.

All I saw was officer farva, dinosaur cop. The characters were bad. When they introduced the main kid in his converse and Beats by Dre, I did in fact poo poo and piss myself. Jurassic park movies get people hyped and this one could have seated the franchise as a classic, but they just let it die instead.

I did enjoy watching it, but even for a Jurassic park movie I think they could have done more. Other people enjoyed it too, but I don't think people were captivated enough for another Jurassic movie to come out with blockbuster status.

Maybe they'll make one of those cheap and brutal anime cartoons of it like the matrix, and we will get to see some srsly intricate and rated R dino fatalities.

I don't know why the Jurassic movies can get away with humans being chewed up or dismembered by dinosaurs, but we don't see dinosaurs getting torn apart by heavy machine guns or autocannons. Goddamnit, I want to see dinosaurs getting mowed down by guns.

I unironically do, which is how I always wind up dusting off the Watchmen to reread. But in this case it's a little different because supes is pretty much alien with the strength of God versus someone you'd be either executing or electing into office, versus a company who can somehow be smart enough to literally make dinosaurs but not smart enough to learn to quit after the t Rex has gotten out more than once

I saw it last night.

I'm not going to write a lot of words for a movie made for 10 yr olds.

It was pretty dumb. You can see who dies and lives from a mile away. Characters that have the strongest plot armor (little kid, Chir Pratt) are in constant danger but you don't care bc you know they'll survive. Most deaths are faceless nameless redshirts.

This made was crafted by many men in suits for the general audience--the masses--the braindead drooling retarded.

Lots of resurrected franchises are cashing in on being grim and dark, JW went the other direction--super happy summer giggles.

OR think like this:

The Goonies is a kids movies from the 80s that had murder, mutants, theft, suicide, skeletons, guns. Compare that to a kids movie of today.

it wasn't grim or dark, even compared to the other jurassic movies. it had more comedy lines and slapstick than the other three. It was brightly lit and only had one night scene, the last one.


ten year olds don't buy the tickets either

timebandits is the best kids film ever, it actually ends with the kids parents being zapped by pure evil and him standing in the street outside his house that has burnt down

at least the dinosaurs didn't have feathers like some retard fags believe they did

They were firing a minigun at the uberrex and missing every god drat shot. THE THING IS NEARLY 3 STORIES TALL!!!

Also did not understand the reasoning of the pterodactyl's or whatever the bird dinosaurs were: Big dinosaur breaks their sanctuary, they are pissed off. But instead of attacking the thing that broke into their home, they fly out and make a straight line for all the tourists at the far end of the island. Did the not-rex issue orders or some poo poo?




Had to admit I wasn't expecting the new park manager to die. The only reference to the original group is that John Hammond gave the park to him.

I think if you can not enjoy both Mad Max and Jurassic World you are a humorless gently caress that needs to rethink the choices you have made in life.

My honest opinion.

Murdersaurus really is the best name. When the Murdersaurus Rex ran from the helicopter sub machine gun fire it was like an action hero or villain. And the T Rex and Velociraptor fight with the Murdersaurus seemed to remind me of Lethal Weapon. Rex is Murtaugh, Raptor is Riggs and the giant whalesaur is Joe Pesci.

yeah, it was exactly the "one step ahead of where the gun is firing" cliche that every action movie uses.

Its a little late but weaponized dinosaurs is the only direction the series could go and still not be lame as gently caress. How many times are some adults and two kids going to go to dino island? Do you realize how loving cool soldiers fighting dinosuars would be? Its what cinema needs. The first thing that would happen in reallife is weaponized dinosaurs, we wouldnt gently caress around with tourism
