TFA and RO were really good imo. TLJ was a let down (although I have yet to see it a second time). 2/3 ain’t bad as far as I’m concerned. JW1 was a huge missed opportunity, so I don’t have much hope for the second one. As long as solo is as good as RO, I’m good.

Meh tfa was the same old tired crap to me. Rebels vs empire. Dark lord. Yada yada. Huge planet killing ball. Meh. Rogue one was a great movie imo. Felt the most Star Wars. TLJ was ...... but anyway Jurassic world may not of been perfect but it was a damn fun movie. Also dinosaurs are awesome!
TFA - New Characters, same ANH plot. Disney went safe, for a fan base that wanted new and exciting..
JW - Park actually working for 10 years canonically, Raptors being trained, mutant dino hybrid, Dr. Wu a dino Frankenstein, the T-Rex and Raptor fight with I-Rex and Mosasaur the killing blow. Universal risked A LOT... not just another Site B subplot and cameo of Sam, Jeff or Laura. They showed you the "What if?" scenario before dismantling John's dream again by Wu's genetic power (insert Ian quite of genetic power) unleashed by his arrogance to ultimately have a hidden agenda with Hoskins and Ingen.
JW gave fans a big homage and nod to Jurassic Park. Can anyone here say that the return of the Jurassic Park Rex didn't respect the nostalgia are per se the return of Luke Skywalker?
Imagine the let down of JP fans of once again if the T-Rex was defeated and before hand we saw it sipping a huge ass baby bottle like a gerbal. And then Owen Grady (Chris Pratt) says, "Let the past die, it's the only way they become extinct again." as he looks up to a hybrid I-Rex as a Transdinohybridmarysueasaurus...

Goes into JW2 thread...
I don’t get a lot of the hate towards Jurassic World. I get it shares a lot of similarities to JP 1, and thus is measured against the only film in the franchise which will always stand apart from the rest, but in the context of stories happening after the events of the first film, I think it’s one of the stronger sequels and despite being the 3rd sequel, still managed to have some wow moments that felt a lot like experiencing JP 1 for the first time.

Wow when you look at it that way your absolutely right. The movie just did more than the new Star Wars did even bringing back OT characters. It just had a great nostalgia factor. It wasn’t trying to be this huge epic. It wasn’t trying to replace anyone.it added new things while respecting the original. That’s how you do a franchise.

The trex vs indominus was a true highlight for the series.
Personally I thought it reeked of Hollywood aiming at the lowest common denominator. Say what you will about TLW and JP3, but at least they were well made with tons of puppets and good CGI.
The CGI in JW is incredibly over saturated. Less is more.
Didn't care an iota for any character within it.
But of all the issues I take with it, the dumb blue and green filter that makes them pop out over everything else was incredibly annoying. And it looks like in the sequel it's the same thing again. It could be why the CGI also looks so bad as well.
Maybe if it didn't look like a PS3 cutscene.

Ah come on snake. You did t smile at all when the rex showed up?
I didn't smile at Impostor Rex.
I don't know what to feel about that scene. I kinda enjoy it, but at the same time there's so much wrong with it.
It should be a pretty cool sequence to see the events where the Rex shows up to kill the Allosaurus to where it's captured and taken back to the main land.

It felt like a scene from a superhero movie.
Yeah... I feel JW was saturated with a lot of bad CGI, but then again I'm reminded who runs ILM atm...
God, no!
No one cared for crappy hybrid even tho the movie forces its audience to care, just like with its main characters who are as unnatural, charmless and unlikable. People only cared for that fight because they actually hated the forced new dino and were happy to finally see something nostalgic... That's the mark of a horrible film.
That was exactly it.
