    To my knowledge, it’s only ever opened once.

    At least it's a dinosaur and not a fucking locust or wasp or what the fuck ever.

    the fact that they cut the dinosaur-centric beginning & the T-Rex At The Drive-In from the last Jurassic World movie but left in two plus hours focusing on large locusts is fucking mind-bogglingly stupid

    if you need to trim for overall runtime, then you cut literally anything fucking else aside from awesome dinosaur scenes in a dinosaur movie

    if you are cutting for narrative reasons, then you need to step back and ask yourself why you are cutting good story out in favor of shitty story

    also, the tangential marketing stuff with dinosaurs that was found footage-y was better than most of the actual movie - more of that stuff and that vibe would have been incredible

    I bought Fallen Kingdom on 4K a few days ago and watched it for the first time since 2018. It’s not a bad as I remembered. Probably due to Dominion.

    Nothing in Dominion was as bad as the dinosaur doing a bugs bunny bit. Dominion is dumb, but I find FK really really bad.

    When the whatever super raptor is playing dead or whatever and the merc goes in the cage and the Dino waves his tail and look at the camera.

    Must not have bothered me too much because it didn’t stick out.

    Unlike half of Dominion

    The first half of fallen kingdom is good. Dominion was just a disappointment because it brought back the original cast just to do absolutely nothing with them.

    They should both be destroyed.

    This might be controversial, but I enjoy Jurassic Park 3 more than The Lost World

    And Jurassic World more than both

    Skill issue? Jk

    I like that it brought Allen and Ellie together. Doesn’t make the movie great or anything, but I’m glad that happened. And I kind of liked the clone girl in it. I like BDH, too. But the locusts story is big dumb and the movie is too long.

    that is a hot hot take

    The antagonist looking way too similar to Tim Apple

    Jurassic Park is one of the best movies of all time.

    The Lost World: Jurassic Park was Steven Spielberg having fun and doing whatever the hell he wanted, sort of at the expense of a tight narrative / the movie overall (T-Rex in San Diego)

    This series downshifts in a major way when the velociraptor looks at Alan Grant on the jet and says "Alan" in Jurassic Park III, and it's been at that exact level since. Full Hollywood budget dinosaurs movies are fun though, unless they are called "65".

    I never watched all of Fallen Kingdom, but looking at that clip it doesn't seem any dumber than having a raptor look at Alan Grant and say "Alan!" in a weird ass voice (I don't care if it is a dream, the scene is still remarkably dumb, especially compared with the level that the first Jurassic Park was operating on.)

    So this island is in the Caribbean near Barbados? At least from that line of dialogue
     
  25. Obviously I’ll see this but they’ve done us dirty too many times so I’m still keeping my expectations very low.
