Re: The Jurassic Park Series (1-6)
Honestly, as long as it’s respectful to the franchise, it’s entertaining, and is a conventionally good movie, I think I’ll like it. I don’t care how they portray the dinosaurs, since I’m not a stickler for paleontological accuracy in my Jurassic frickin’ Park movies. Seeing a predatory Therizino could be cool.

Well, yeah. Anybody expecting anything more than dumb popcorn entertainment is kidding themselves. That trailer said everything that needed to be said and more.

Re: The Jurassic Park Series (1-6)
Right, because it's not like modern day moose, hippos, rhinos, elephants, kangaroos, koalas, or geese are highly temperamental and dangerous animals to be around and can and will cause severe harm, if not outright kill, a person for no other reason than being in a bad mood or being territorial.Spuro wrote: ↑Thu Feb 10, 2022 6:10 pmHerbivores don't have to be predatory to be dangerous...Voyager wrote: ↑Thu Feb 10, 2022 5:41 pm Honestly, as long as it’s respectful to the franchise, it’s entertaining, and is a conventionally good movie, I think I’ll like it.

Re: The Jurassic Park Series (1-6)
Anyone else think that either Rexy or Blue could die?

Rexy certainly in her advanced age I'd be surprised if she still alive by the end. Blue will most likely live.

Re: The Jurassic Park Series (1-6)
Anyway, why would he? What purpose would it serve? You're killing the face of your franchise, and on top of that she's an animal with no concept of heroic sacrifice or anything like that. Nobody gains anything from a dead Rexy, other than maybe some degree of creative freedom in future entries.

Re: The Jurassic Park Series (1-6)
The only thing I'm expecting about Dominion is that the Dairy Queen tie-in will be better than the actual movie, much like Lost Kingdom's was. Everything about that movie was an utter joke, especially when they went to Canada and let the brat let all the monsters loose...because she's a clone. Of a daughter of a fanfiction OC clearly made as a lazy John Hammond expy.
It's something how the movie frames Running-In-Heels as anything but a contemptuous monster that caused yet another preventable series of deaths on an island that didn't need to exist to begin with, and that her suddenly taking some heel-turn as some "environmentalist" for invasive species that will disrupt countless ecosystems isn't anything but ironic. But somehow, selling these abominations as toys or weapons is wrong, but exploiting them for consumerist profit with very little safety protocols in place is alright? Like how the first Jurassic World said that raising military raptors was bad somehow.
Even the villainness that freed King Ghidorah for "teh environmentz" has a fuller-fleshed reasoning for her insanity.
I wish they brought back gymnastics girl in this film and had her have a troupe of children doing all sorts of whacky gymnastics shit. Even throw in Simone Biles and Mckayla Maroney[ with her unimpressed face] as her daughters to drive home how crazy this is. Why even pretend any pretense of giving a fuck and being low-scale, when you can make it as fun and insane as it could be.
Or just cut out the entire Canada subplot and have some incident leak of dinosaurs on the mainland lead to them escaping and becoming an invasive species, firmly turning the protagonists into the villains. That would be extremely refreshing having the protagonists become hated land have to restore their standings than being the designated appointed people who suffer zero consequences for their actions.

Re: The Jurassic Park Series (1-6)
Screw the naysayers; I love what I'm seeing in the trailer. And regardless of flaws, I expect to get more than my fair share of enjoyment out of this movie. Though I know I speak for most of the fandom when I say the Mesozoic prologue should be left in it.
