Seeing scenes like that and comparing it to the first film just makes it so obvious they have not put any care or consideration into these films. When Ellie is running from the raptors we never see them and I think it has more to do than simply "they didn't have the technology". If they wanted to they probably could have, but that's not the point of the scene. It's not an action piece, it's a thriller and we are seeing and feeling the character running for their life believing they are being chased. It doesn't really matter whether or not she was, but it's still effective even if you consider that she only made it because they weren't after her. That provides viewers with something more to think about and real emotion, but now it's so easy for them to rely on cool CGI dinosaur woweeee!

I'll never understand how a pocket of dinosaurs, pterosaurs, mosasaurs, etc, could possibly forge a strong enough foothold on our planet. A planet, mind you, which is not suited to their biology. One thing about the original book that I loved was that it made the strong point to say that these animals don't belong here, and that their existence is marked with discomfort, disease & death. Yet, somehow a fraction of a fraction of animals from that island made it off and now they're everywhere. Wot? Yes, these movies very much think you're stupid, and sadly, the box office numbers might support that hypothesis. Considering we now have three of them, I'd say it's practically empirical at this point.

He realized that he was basically designing a one of a kind networking platform to run a cutting edge theme park/bio research facility. Then realized he was being seriously underpaid. He originally tried to negotiate a pay increase but John Hammond refused. So Nedry grabbed the technology and crashed the network. I wrote this while on the toilet with some serious diarrhea.

It's weird how Jurassic Park sequels devolved into dinosaur chases. The whole point was the question of humans altering nature in ways that could be disastrous. If anything a sequel should have explored the consequences of bringing back ancient animals in the forms of possible diseases and potential DNA breakdown. Someone who knew what they were doing could have even ramped it up to robocop levels of cynicism where people are bringing back dinosaurs just to be commodified pets. Although considering modern Hollywood that would be a little too ironic.

And yes, they would be domesticated dinosaurs, as a big selling point. Thus why Nedry was being approached; steal *InGen's* samples, deconstruct, alter enough to avoid patent infringement, reconstruct. If they had *_actually_* paid attention to the source material, there *_was_* fodder for future cinematic installments. But just like using human brains as server hubs was "too complex an idea" for *_The Matrix,_* so too are we "too dumb" to have a decent plot in the *JP* franchise.

It blows my mind all the missed opportunities in this movie. The plotline of a genetics company modifying insects to damage a competitors crops is actually a really good and semi plausible science fiction storyline. It also definitely seems like an idea from the mind of Michael Crichton. However in this movie it was completely wasted. Not only because it of course being a Jurassic Park movie had to focus more on the dinosaurs but its completely unclear why the villains made the grasshoppers in the first place. Their motivations were all over the place. What a waste of a good idea! Frankly this movie should have simply focused on dinosaurs in our world and a more intelligent writer could have given us allegories on how we interact with real animals. Having dinosaurs illegally trafficked can bring attention to real animal trafficking and how horrible it is for the animals trapped in it. That is there in the movie but its barely explored with too many competing plotlines.

You have undersold the philosophy behind the original Jurassic Park. It was Michael Crichton's parable of warning about the impossibility of central planning and the failures of scientific management. Ellie Satler's line "You never had control. That's the illusion" is the perfect thesis for the story. There's a reason the story involves a chaotician to serve as a counterpoint to the automated technocracy created by Hammond and Wu.

I lost it when the dinosaur started breathing fire, dinosaurs knowing English, locusts being designed and trained to not damage company property, and the woman getting herself pregnant. Plus the one guy was walking through the hyperloop. The reason the train is able to go that fast is that the tunnel is a vacuum with no air, he would have died the second he opened the hatch. The whole movie was ridiculous.

To be fair. If you are lactose intolerant and eat lactose, there is a detectable amount of H2 in your breath, with O2 from the air mixed it becomes easily flameable. The Giga could still get the wrong food and has problems with his digestion that lead to similare problems. Far stretched but eh. The english understanding dinosaure, if you mean blue yeah, Blue and Beta didn't need to be in the movie makes no sense. The Locusts thing is easy, they are designed to be immune against pestizides which farms would use but the BIOSYN Crops have a genetic mechanism against them to which they were made weak against. Woman getting herself pregnant dumbest decission of the movie. Except why did she even do this I hated that they made the old man that wanted to save dinosaures and missed his daughter a liar in his dying breath. I didn't know that with the vakuum, thanks for the knowlege.

I think that the most frustrating thing for me is that there were nuggets of potentially competent story telling in there, but they botched it every. single. time. In the 25 minute drive home, my wife and I came up with 3 or 4 different, hopefully better, screenplays for this damn thing.

My thought exactly. This movie has several potentially very fruitful ideas, that would have been awesome to explore. Like, now that genetic modifications are so easy we can bring back so many dinosaurs, what would be the consequences ? (You can even keep the Tim Cook villain using it to push his own crop seeds). Or if they really wanted the dinosaurs amongst us bit, focus on it, find reason why they would spread (the black market could be heavily involved and explored in much more details, they would be creating their own dinosaurs for profits but some would escape etc…). But instead they just put everything they could all at once, barely exploring their own ideas to instead focus on running away from dinosaurs

As a huge Jurassic franchise fan, I hated this movie. Where fallen kingdom (didn't like that movie too) ended, there were huge opportunities to show how dinos are real threat to human race. Like planet of the apes. They teased us with battle at big rock short. Cretaceous era prologue. And finally failed to give a proper dino movie. No dino threat. No tension. No proper villain. Nothing. JP1 characters returns just for nostalgia feels. They did not felt like those JP1 characters. This movie failed and disappointed us fans in every way. Colin, I'll throw my crocs at you if you ever call yourself a jurassic park fan.

I think CT fell down trying to please too many of the fans. The Barbasol can was the ultimate telling sign of this, as well as bringing back the original three. Sure, we loved seeing them, they were arguably the best part, but there was absolute no need for him to bring them back. I guess it helps when Owen and Claire are the most mundane Jurassic characters in the entire franchise. He’s been too busy making a fan service film rather than creating something half decent, like he’s been sat on Reddit reading what we all want. Dominion makes Fallen Kingdom look like a masterpiece. The prologue and Battle At Big Rock are exactly what we all wanted. Dominion and a load of execs in suits ruined the “end” of this franchise. The end of the prologue with the boy looking terrified at the T Rex was absolutely spot on. I don’t know how he can make something like that, and then follow up with Dominion. Awful.

I felt the exact same way after watching the first Jurassic World.

It felt blend, stupid and generic, like the a movie made from a Big Mac recipe. Yuck.

This is why, even though I don't much care for his movies, I always appreciate what Christopher Nolan does. I would much rather not understand a movie and have to watch it a second time, than understand a movie in the first ten minute and have to watch the rest of it.

By comparison my experience of Jurassic World was of anticipation and excitement turning to "Well this is sh1t".

I didn't see Fallen Kingdom having heard it was laughable tripe with yet more grating characters. Now this... *sigh* I wish Hollywood would stop tainting beloved films with ill-conceived and poorly executed effluent. Indeed, big dumb films don't have to be dumb or treat their audience as dumb.

the first thing i said as the credits came up in the one before this was "as if the army wouldn't just come in and shoot/catch all the dinos", instead they're just like "guess we have to live with them oh well" even though there were maybe 20 dinosaurs released, each from seperate species, somehow populated the entire world in a matter of what, months? years? what has everyone been doing since.

It isn't that they think we're stupid. It's that they know it doesn't matter - we'll still pay to see it. Jurassic World is dumb as hell, and a massive hit. We've taught studios that it doesn't matter if the writing is bad, as long as it's spectacle and from a big brand, it'll make a fortune. Why do they need to make a great, smart, sensical big budget film with quality expectations anymore when audiences will show up either way? Just pick up a writer for hire that has no passion for it, they'll take whatever notes the committee has without argument, and turn in a script on time that they shat out quickly. Doesn't matter if it's bad. It'll still make money. Studios just respond to our behaviors. When stupid franchise films start flopping, and we instead show up more in number for films like Northman or Dune, we'll see a change. Until then, no need for Aliens, T2, Matrix, or Fury Road level spectacle films when Jurassic World Dumpster II, written by D-level filmmaker for hire Joe Nobody, is as or more successful than all of them. Then again, maybe we are stupid.

It's about man, in his hubris, thinking that, by means of technology, he can be like the gods himself and getting burned in the process.

They all seem to be of no affiliation to any sort of genre, since the risk of losing something in translation and ensuring it's bland and pedestrian enough to it appeals to non-western cultures who view the film from a different perspective. Poly-demographic pandering, faux-global-acumen, self-censorious, linear, and tepid.

Which is weird, considering that you could very likely make even more money if you licensed your movie rights so that they can make versions in other countries while also allowing other people to make money in that industry. It would also make for much more interesting cinema. Imagine a french or hindi jurassic world.

@@theothertonydutch I would think the studio writes Jurassic World's screenplay in such a way that it easily translates into French an tad Hindi without much confusion for those foreign audience members. Keep all the profits 'in house'. I'm just guessing, of course. Verifying my theory would take an insider to confirm the dirty truth.

Just discovered your channel, love the style and the input. Instant sub and bell.

Yet I do recommend to speed up your narration.... quite slow IMO.

What gets me is how hard the move had to work to forget the prior lessons of the series. "Lets stop the wave of super locusts by making a tailored bioweapon" is exactly the type of thing the series has been warning us is a terrible idea. In the original book, the lack of weapons for killing dinosaurs is a plot point (asset protection over workers/not knowing what is sufficient to stop the animals) however the fact that the sequels won't let humans use guns on the animals is increasingly frustrating. Just because the bad-guys got eaten in JP 1/2 doesn't mean the problem is solved and the greed that motivates things is unresolved.

There were WAY more dinosaurs in the Super Mario Bros movie.

The Quetzalcoatlus nest on the One World Trade Center is said to be a “tense debate” on a “Pterosaur habitat”. To me, that suggests there are vocal groups who want them killed while others what a more peaceful form of removal (or non-removal if they’re just chilling).

I would watch thát movie. There's a community episode where the B-plot is the removal of a bird's nest from a wifi unit. That would have worked great with a bunch of Azdarchids.

@@theothertonydutch Oh, yeah! I remember that episode. This movie set up a lot of potential future stories, and I’m really excited for the next one, whenever that may come along.

I loved it when "Dr Grant" ignites the infinite burn handkerchief while in the mine.

This movie wasn't even about dinosaurs, they were just kinda there hanging out

Considering the money it made; they're right.

Watched half on Jurassic Park in silence. Opening weekend at a drive in and the system was screwy. But I still had an amazing time watching the story unfold.

It’s a shame how far the franchise has fallen.

The irony of having a Jurassic World ad run before the video starts...

I saw Jurassic Park fourteen times in the theater as a child. JW Dom r@ped my heart.

There's never been worse screenwriters as there are now. How the hell is this happening? By the way, love the ending to this video.

You kidding? Some of these people were around for the last 2 writers' guild strikes. Ask any fan of lost if they feel this movie was worse than the last season of lost, or heroes, for that matter

Screenwriting is considered ancillary at best to film making. They plan out the action scenes before the script is close to being finished, because that's the main draw for the audience and what most of the time and money is spent on. They sign up the sponsors and consult with toy makers. The kinds of screenwriters that can thrive in the world of blockbusters are the ones who write whatever the studio heads tell them to write, and nothing more. And maybe someone to punch up the dialogue and pop cultural references to make it feel more like Guardians of the Galaxy. That's why people like Akiva Goldsman (Batman & Robin, I Robot, Angels and Demons), Alex Kurtzman (The Mummy, Star Trek Into Darkness, and at least one Bayformers), and Ehren Kruger (at least one Bayformers, Ghost in the Shell, Dumbo), get to write the scripts for $150-200 million movies, instead of great screenwriters like Alex Garland (Ex Machina, Dredd, Sunshine), Taylor Sheridan (Sicario, Hell or High Water, Wind River), and Drew Goddard (Bad Times at the El Royale, The Cabin in the Woods). They're not better writers, they're just willing to play the studio's game; they're hacks.

I take it haven't seen movies from the 70s. Watch Sssss if you want to see really bad movie.

Wait, the plot is about Monsanto creating crop killing locusts & not getting rid of all the dinosaurs that are roaming earth now? Did not expect that.

I agree with you completely on the movie treating us like we're stupid, heck even if this movie was tried to be more comprehendible for younger audiences still doesn't justify it. I, as well as many others, watched the first Jurassic park as a 7 year old kid and though I couldn't quite understand why everything was happening I remember really liking the movie for what I could understand. The script, humor, terrifying dino moments and the gravity of the situation. I sure wish Hollywood would take a flipping chance again.
