It's weird how the original JP movie is actually underrated. People usually talk about the special effects and finally bringing believable dinosaurs to the screen. Which is true, but overlooks what a tremendous job Spielberg does of building suspense, putting out exposition without slowing things down, etc. The half hour or so before we even see a dinosaur is almost as compelling as what comes after.

It's so wholesome how Mark uses these videos about how bad some movies are to sneak in talking about how and why other movies are really great. It's a nice mixture of what sells on YT and what he's obviously passionate about.

Hey Mark, when I was in elementary school there was a popular kid who told the same joke every day at recess, to see who would laugh. When no one laughed, he promised to stop telling the joke. Guess what happened - by the third day only one kid laughed at the joke. By the end of the week, that same kid was still laughing. I'm convinced that 21st century movie audiences are like that kid who laughed at the same joke everyday. Get ready for, "Jurassic Universe: Dino Trek".

Exactly! The introduction of an entire class of previously extinct animal species into a new environment would be grounds for an ecological catastrophe with the disruption to food chains, habitats and competition between native and invasive species, to say nothing of the horrific consequences of giant carnivorous theropods proliferating into our world. This film should have been themed as an almost dystopian horror movie, but no, it’s a by the numbers ‘action’ film where nothing that happens in the movie matters and the plot is neatly wrapped up with a bow on top - completely ignoring the fact that the world is STILL overwhelmed with dinosaurs at the movie’s end. An utter shambles.

You really think a bunch of clown dinos would survive our dedicated efforts to exterminate them?

I feel so vindicated at last. Jurassic World, as in the first one, is honestly one of the only movies I'd ever actually say I 'hated'. Like legitimately intensely disliked. It was stupid, moronic, idiotic, and utterly insulting to the intelligence of the audience. It was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, hands down, compared to anything at all. It was the closest I ever came to walking out of the cinema halfway through a film. But they made three of these things, and people kept seeing them, and I started to wonder if I was just crazy. For some reason, everyone else just seemed to act like these films were okay. Like after the first there was no way in hell I was going to waste my money and time on seeing the second, or the third. No chance. But now here we are, and I sit here like 'finally, everybody else caught up'. Because my god, every one of these films has been absolutely abysmal, some of the worst material ever put to film. And other people are saying it.

I thought the violence might be pushing it for myself, but felt having read the book I knew what was coming and so would be fine. This set me up to learn a very important lesson on screen adaptation--there is no rule that says the movie must mirror the source material. SPOILER for a 30 year old book: he survives in the novel. Muldoon getting eaten in the movie scared the crap out of me! And that God-meddling old man Hammond survived! I loved the movie experience but was pissed about both of those changes.

The single biggest problem with this movie about dinosaurs, is that if you take out every single dinosaur scene, you'll have the EXACT SAME movie with the same outcome. It's two hours of "hey, look at these awesome dinosaurs, arent they cool, anyway, back to the movie!"

The whole Magic Hand thing since Jurassic World always bothered me. It has some merit if it were only Blue. As someone, who also works in Animal Husbandry concerning our modern day Dino descendants, there can be a connection between a trainer and the specific animals they work with. However, making his approach work with every dinosaur like that.... I was literally expecting someone dressed in robes to suddenly walk in and say, "Your handling with the Force is strong. However, You need training. Come with me.... to Ossus." or something.

I was a kid when Jurassic Park came out, the plot of Jurassic Park was simple enough for kids to get in a certain degree. When I got into my teens I figured out more of the plot cause I understood why Wayne knight’s character did what he did. So in that aspect it was good for kids and adults.

The book was way better...

for Jurassic Park initially they didn't want to use CG for the movie because up until that point it was very apparent how unrealistic it looked and Spielberg didn't want that. Instead they were going to use stop motion but it was clear that stop motion was not capturing the realism either and were looking for other solutions but even then they were still against VFX. A team of two or three guys who believed in it spent days/weeks working after hours to develop the software and studying motion to get it right. But they couldn't convince their seniors to give them a meeting to show their progress. I think they were given a firm warning along the lines of "I don't want you to bring this up again or else". When the producers and directors were taking a tour of the studio the VFX team conveniently left an animated dinosaur model looping on their computer monitor. The filmmakers were floored and the rest is history. The visuals in the original Jurassic Park still hold up incredibly well. Its techniques are still taught in animation and VFX classes.

Holy crap! That story is AWFUL! I heard that the Jurassic World franchise took a nose dive but I completely forgot just how hard it crashed and burned. I think I’m going to have to blame the audiences for Hollywood constantly saying: “‘memba this?” for most movies these past few years. I am so glad I opted out of watching these movies.

I knew you wouldn't have trouble dumping on Dominion, but the quality discussion of Jurassic Park is why I'm subscribed. And you still keep it funny!

I've seen all of the Jurassic World films in theaters and every time that I went the theater was filled with families. Parents with their children who probably just want to see some dinosaurs and eat some popcorn. I think that all of the problems that you pointed out mean very little to the modern-day moviegoer. Plot armor is expected and the bad guy dying is predictable. I mean, there are channels whose sole content is explaining movie endings for those who didn't get it. I think that spoon-feeding the audience keeps them from seeing all of the inconsistencies with almost any modern-day film and people don't like to think that much these days. They don't seem to want anything out of the box, just something familiar with a different twist that is easy to digest for their brain.

It's weird that it took so long to have dinos roaming the world as a main plot point when both the books and orignal trilogy somewhat tackled this issue, It could have happened as early as JP III. And then it wasn't even the main plot point, it was like an inconvenience in a movie about giant loucsts. I went into this movie with the lowest expectations possible, only wanting dumb monster movie action since i already hated Fallen Kingdom, and i was still disappointed by it.

The stupid hand-holding thing, did the writers forget that worked for Blue and the raptors because he trained them since hatching??? And I laughed so much how Maisie releasing a few (there were like, maybe 20?) dinosaurs into the wild means they are widespread in the whole world now. In reality the army would have hunted them down in days. They are giant reptiles, not really hard to find, and they don't breed like rabbits, so this concept is just stupid.

Just wanted to say that I absolutely love your videos ! Your in-depth analyses and comedic style are always fascinating and funny- I appreciate the effort you put into them. I actually click the like button before I even start watching because I know I'm in for a treat. I was thinking, since you clearly have such a sophisticated knowledge of movies, have you ever considered taking one of your favorite films and doing an even deeper dive into the aspects and details that make it great? I for one would love to see that, and I'm sure many others would too. The longer the better, at least for me! Thank you so much for all the entertainment you provide through your uploads.

I have thought about making videos on my fave movies but I just haven’t found the time yet, hopefully once I get production to a point where I have some free time I’ll start to work on that 😊

The dinosaur movie about insects.

A Jurassic Park movie where the entire plot about Locust while the Dinosaurs were treated as an afterthought is what made me legitimately upset.

The magic hand skit is quite possibly my favorite Mark insert so far. He was too funny during it.

I’m really upset about how neglected the mosasaur was for the past two films. It only had two scenes in fallen kingdom and one in dominion.

They could have made the mosasaur scenes so epic but nope the best scenes were just tiny tid bits

I think modern film sequels are so obsessed with fan service that they often fail to understand their own callbacks. It's not just a phenomenon between the Jurassic Park trilogy and the Jurassic World trilogy, either. I mean, even within the new trilogy, callbacks fall apart. Just look at Owen's hand thing. In the first Jurassic World, you probably assumed that he could do that to the velociraptors because he raised them, but in this film, he's able to do that to all dinosaurs. He knows DSL (Dinosaur Sign Language). On side note, I also roll my eyes now whenever I see road flares in a dinosaur movie.

Fan service can only be a problem if it's misused.

They could rejuvenate the franchise with a live action "Flintstones" movie, explaining that it is actually a post apocalyptic sequel to the JP series.

At this point im all for it.. Make another world movie that transitions into a post apocalyptic flintstones movie

And people think I'm crazy because I don't like watching reboots and sequels...give me three movies, and I'm done with the franchise...

“We captured all the fast-moving agile hunter/predator species, but the slow lumbering herbivores have been a challenge to wrangle.”😂 “The illusive brontosaurus…master of camouflage.”😂😂

This ain't no April Fools Joke either.

Next "Jurassic Park/World Christmas Edition", dinosaurs help Santa save Christmas.

horrormaster13 already said this in a comment but jurrassic franchise is officially fast and furious

They'll make these films until one bombs. And if they follow the lead of the Terminator franchise, they'll keep making them even after they bomb, too.

Yeah, JP1 was more of a horror film, but the new ones are action films. They should have just made a scarier JP.

Jurassic Park was made to make a thrilling and thoughtful story. Jurassic Park Domination was made to make boat loads of money. Story isn’t important when people will see it no matter what they put out.

Two words: nostalgia bait

What pissed me off was that they made the Dinosaurs a Background problem. Not only that the film focused on bugs. Who ever came up with that plot was high Asf. The fans don't want a world where dinosaurs coexist they want horror. Not only that people are saying that it was the best film, ignoring the fact that it had no villain.

We knew this movie was gonna be shit when the characters from Jurassic Park through Jurassic Park 3 were added in the third one for nostalgia bait. They have little screentime because Dominion had too much focus on Owen, Claire, and the cast we knew from World and Fallen Kingdom. Same goes with the dinosaurs' screentime by the locusts. The CG is worse here, but what we have here is what Malcolm admitted to Hammond during the dining scene in the first movie. JP became the label on lunchboxes Universal sold to kids. All with no personality, and killing the franchise as a whole. And many thought the ending to Fallen Kingdom when the dinosaurs coincided with society outside the islands jumped the shark even more than The Lost World's ending where it became a generic monster movie.

"Welcome back TO the show." Love it!

Always makes me so happy to see uploads from this channel, you'll always be an OG

Thank you! Thank your for pointing out that bad guy being able to answer Owens questions while his arms are being shewed up. That moment made me facepalm myself so hard I almost knocked myself out. This movie is such a cashgrab high budget mess its unbelievable. People should be fired after dumpster fires like this. Almost nothing in this movie worked for me. Some dinos looked cool I guess. Thats about it for me. Everything else fell flat on its face. Story, dialog, action scenes. Everything.

I love that they have giant lizards living in snowy climates and eating pine trees. I'm always seeing lizards and gators in the Rocky Mtns.

And the truly bad thing: they have one dinosaur with feathers in there, so they could have easily used some current year feathered designs for those dinosaurs in the snow. But then again, most dinosaurs don’t behave like the supposed animal at all. They are clearly just plot things that happen to look like dinosaurs. I personally got annoyed by several depictions (i.e. why would a pterosaur attack an airplane bigger than him or even be able to catch up? It’s a long distance glider that is supposed to hunt on the ground, not a fighter jet going mach 3).

There's this one little detail in the very first scenes of the film where the wranglers are chasing some dinos in the snowy steppes, and the dinos have steam coming out of their mouths and noses, but not the wranglers or their horses. The official explanation for the steaming dinos was that dinosaurs were apparently warm-blooded, hence why they're steaming AND are able to survive in snowy environments. Ok, maybe, but then, are humans and horses coldblooded? Are they undead? Where's the steam, y'all??

Actually A lot of Dinosaurs were warm blooded, especially large dinosaurs, so being able to withstand cold environments is the least problematic aspect of this movie.

@@koichidignitythief7429 The dinosaurs living in cold environments are believed to have had feathers though. What the movie does is more the equivalent of putting an African elephant into the cold environment vs using a wooly mammoth. Yes, mammals can be adapted to cold, doesn’t mean all of them are.

​​@@davidgantenbein9362 My impression was that these aren't really dinosaurs, but really just man-made frog hybrids whose behavior and appearance were designed to resemble what people expected non-avian dinosaurs to be like. F.ex. having them behave way more monstrous rather than as normal animals. After all: they were created as attractions in an amusement park not even a zoo. I believe that kinda also was the point Michael Crichton made in his books and even he still wrote the dinosaurs fairly closely to what knowledge we had available at the time. Of course that doesn't make the Jurassic World movies less of a giant turd and I just realized I probably put more thought into the dinosaurs than the filmmakers did. I mean; they apparently thought having non-avian dinosaurs live free in nature was a positive environmentalist message and not the absolute ecological disaster it realistically should have been. Even if they were like their prehistoric counterparts they would still be extremely invasive. Not to mention the biodiversity never recovered after the K-T Extinction (and probably won't anytime soon) so there's no way to properly sustain such large animals in the current Earth environments.

Terrible sequels will never ruin the original for me, in fact they make it even better because you can see just how great it is by comparison.

I enjoy how objective this video is whilst keeping a comical spirit about it all. Truly, you are talented.

You are the best, Mark Enjoying being a subscriber of yours to be up to date on your humor lol

The dinos going from the main attraction to a sideshow and the movie mainly follows a complicated and unnecessary human plot line? I've seen this happen before with Godzilla; the next JP movie will have aliens trying to take over the world and... oh, god, they're going to try and tie it in to Independence Day 3. I'm betting on that now.

Awesome review, these movies just keep getting worse.

In Jurassic Park, Hammond was fond of saying "Spared no expense!", but the visitors weren't provided with Dasani or Fiji waters in moving vehicles? I posit the scene with the vibrating cups of water would have been just as effective if there had been bottles.

I mean, why the hell would you serve open cups of a beverage in a moving vehicle like that? Bad call by Spielberg.

The main problem, besides the boring repetitive sequence is TOO MUCH CGI. I couldn’t make it half way past the first reboot movie. I’ll stick to the original.

I just happened to watch the original like 2 days ago, so I'm pretty happy that this review just dropped, and that you compare the two movies thoroughly. Great content as always Mark!

There is a lesson here; don’t take the nostalgia bait. 🤔

There truly is only one Jurassic Park movie, and that is..... Encino Man

Love when you wrap up the video when there's a few minutes left...tells me there's a killer skit coming :)

This could have been such a great and really dark post-apocalyptic movie, but then kids couldnt have seen it, so less profits. There are other tired franchises that could have been great if not disneyfied and all that crap.

My personal experience was since Fallen Kingdom just seemed to go out it's way to be dumb, it really just made me unable to care about anything that happens in Dominion.

As always, top notch entertainment and a great break down and comparison between the original movie and the newer ones. Thanks Mark!

The magic hand was amazing to see during the first Jurassic World film but when he started to use it on every dinosaur in the franchise just completely ruined the special relationship he had with Blue and the other Raptors cause for some reason he's now just the dino whisperer.

How did the dinosaurs get all over the world? Just wondering. I want to know.

Great review. Never felt a pull to watch the last two movies.

Always a great end to the day when Mark posts a new video. Definitely an underrated channel, thanks for another awesome video

That bit about all the heroes surviving unharmed is so true! It takes the excitement off. There should have been hero deaths. In the original Jurassic Park as you pointed out the expert died. In the Michael Creighton novel this was what happened too. Killing a couple of the heroes off keeps the viewers on edge. The fact they all survived just made it smooth and uninteresting.

It is the worst, just excruciatingly boring.

I actually paid money to see this film, and sat and watched it, feeling like a complete fool the whole time. Seeing clips of the film is re-traumatizing and a painful reminder of my shame.

Its disgusting that they marketed it as Jurassic world but gave us Jurassic locusts instead

I’m half expecting the fourth sequel movie to be the company discovering Claire is in fact a superhero that can control dinosaurs, like Aquaman… but Jurassic Jane

The damn Holding up of the hand was the absolute worst idea ever.

I may be mistaken, but Happy Birthday, Mark!
