“no one remembers a damn thing about it other than there were dinosaurs and people running from those dinosaurs, and that one of them was Bryce Dallas Howard in high heels. You may also recall some sort of scene where Chris Pratt leads a velociraptor motorcycle gang that you possibly hallucinated.”
That’s not true. I also remember the young British assistant given a weirdly extended tortuous death for seemingly no good reason.

  Yeah, either the director or one of the writers obviously had issues with their british nanny in their youth :/

  Maybe they extended her death scene to make up for not giving us a Chris Prat death scene.

Has the fanchise just forgotten that the dinosaurs on Isla Nubar aren’t really dinosaurs but just genetic abominations that approximate what Ingen thought dinosaurs looked like in the 90's?
Conservation messages in this franchise just don’t work because these dinosaurs were grown in a lab and do nothing but break out and eat people.

  It’s going to sound silly, but I got so happy when I realized this wasn’t ‘video content.’

  I was just thinking I hope they tame a T Rex and ride it around. Why not?

  I mean I couldn’t stay still and watch the first one, but based on what I saw at the end, I’d be astonished if Pratt doesn’t enter the movie on a T-Rex in minute one.

“We went against nature, and now nature is volunteering to sort that out for us. We should totally let it.”
I remember back millions of year ago when everybody was bitching about JP2? 3? ...the one where Goldblum came back.
Anywho, I would always mentally flash back to the scene where the two T-Rex..I? where ripping Toby apart and reply with: What is to hate? More dinosaurs, but more importantly: More dinosaurs viciously ripping apart people! With the added benefit of having Goldblum there to point out the obvious absurdity of it all.
Pretty much my standard for the whole stupid premise. How many creatures that should not exist kill how many humans? They keep that ratio up...we are good to go. Maybe not in an expensive movie theater seat...but eating popcorn on my comphy couch.

  2 was my favorite. As you point out it had plenty of people getting chowed on and plus that scene with the Winnebago hanging off the cliff was fun and that bald hunter dude was rad and of course Goldbloom was fun.

  The whole Winnebago scene may have been one of the best executed action sequences ever put to film.
  Made up for the whole ridiculous obligatory “ annoying child gymnast kicks raptor in the face” deal...almost.

I normally have low expectations for dumb meathead blockbusters, but watching this movie made me angry. It was like every character had undergone a partial lobotomy on the helicopter ride to the island.

  Agreed. There’s so much dumb per second squeezed into this that it makes my head hurt. Plus, it seems mean. The premise seems to be “We know you love the dinosaurs so much that we’re going to make our characters rescue them all this time.....except we’re actually going to make you watch as we kill all of them.”

If they really wanted to be clever, Pratt and Howard eventually run into shelved robot versions of themselves and this whole f*cking thing is just Westworld with Dinosaurs, which is all Chriton’s original book was.

I’m sure if you asked most moviegoers they’d probably remember the film, more then you’re willing to admit. Moviegoers loved the film anyway. I thought it was fine too.

Am I the only one who was a billion times more interested in the idea of Jurassic World as a working, functional dinosaur zoo complete with soldiers trying to commandeer some of the dinosaurs and train them to eat their enemies than I possibly could be in the idea of dinosaurs escaping and eating people again? Like, seriously, all the cool bits in Jurassic World were in actually seeing the theme park realized. Everyone’s seen the bits after that three times and they were only not-boring the first time.

How can you do this and miss the fact that Chris Pratt clearly dies in the trailer, consumed by volcanic ash on an exploding island while running in a dinosaur stampede towards a cliff that drops 1000 feet into the ocean. And his death occurs less than halfway into the film! It’s a daring choice for both the film and the trailer.
