I don’t understand the overwhelming merchandising for this . The film franchise as a whole is not that good . The last film was so mediocre other than the dinosaur effects. The characters were meh.

Hollywood is getting to greedy

The answer is easy......kids. Kids like Dinosaurs and ask their parents for Dinosaur stuff.

Bingo, i bought of few Jurassic toys for myself and my step son started checking them out and now he spots and wants everything Jurassic at the stores and to play battles in Jurassic World Alive with me, took very little to get him hooked and before that he had no interest in dinosaurs.

It's funny that dinosaur toys of similar quality to the ones sold as JW toys are numerous and much cheaper. These guys just slapped a JW logo and tripled the price or higher.

I watched this earlier. Sweet mother of god - I'm still amazed by what I saw.
And I mean that in a bad way.

Well, just quickly: There are a few fantastic moments in the movie: That scene in the trailers where the indoraptor climbs into the little girls bedroom - the full scene coming down from the roof Nosferatu style coming into the room. It's great. Also a very cool scene on the dock of the island as the entire place is engulfed by lava and smoke and a lone Brachiosaurus is trapped and wails for rescue. It's strong stuff.

Apart from that - it's absolute nonsense. There is no story. First half on the island - they land - they are double crossed and they leave. It's just so badly written. Blue the friendly dino gets shot. They fix her up. they all end up in a ridiculous looking mansion in the US. Where they are having a dino auction - with russians and other cartoon bad guys. It's all pretty ********.
There were laughs a plenty in the theatre, but in the wrong places. It's just so silly. It makes the last one look like Sicario.
So John Hammond had a partner who he fell out with (the reason why disclosed later) that co-created the dinos? Really? And this ex-partner (who has a stick with amber on the top - sounds familiar) and his grand daughter lives with him. But wait, it's not actually his grand daughter, it's a clone he made of his dead wife. So Hammond didn't approve of dead wife cloning and left him and his clone to their own devices. Starting to get a feel for the movie now? If you drink a few beers and go with zero expectations you might enjoy some of it. It is entertaining for the most part - but it's by far the dumbest writing I've see in a very long time. Thank god Treverororoow has nothing to so with SW anymore.
And the big 'twist' at the end? They release the dinos into the world. California by the looks of it. So now we all live in "Jurassic World" with dinos. Well, except that they only took like 10 off the island.

The new bad guy dino is fun, T-Rex saves the day again and Blue the raptor lives in E.T's neighbourhood in LA. And they show not one but two footwear shots of Howard to prove she's not in heels.I rolled my eyes the second time. Oh and for some inexplicable reason there are two Scooby Doo teenagers with them now - Velma and Shaggy - you think I'm joking? I'm not.

What dinosaur toys are you seeing comparable to the current Mattel Jurassic line? I’ve looked before for my son and what I found either looked too childish or too scary.

Back when I was a kid, Playskool had an awesome dinosaur line.

There were some cheap dinosaur toys here prior to JW. They've gone off-the-shelves now that the JW line is up. Some of the even cheaper ones (the rubbery, molded stuff that has barely any articulation) that now carry the JW branding, slightly different paint job (hello Blue) and jacked up in price.

I saw it too recently and found it quite boring at points. The ending is a big WTF to everyone. It’s so implausible!

 

[ebor]

This will be my first D-Box movie... Friday night! Can't wait...

 

[chewblacca]

Well for me:

Spoiler

after they leave the island the movie goes down and turns into a by the numbers movie with corporate, greedy villains and obvious kills. The ending sets up the inevitable part 3 that seems slightly interesting but wholly incredible if you think about the history of these dinosaurs.

Saw it online. Didn’t wow me but I will see it in theaters soom

Seen the middle-of-the-road reviews. *Shrug*. Not sure any of these as an *experience* will top JP 1 the same way I can never see Star Wars for the first time again. Mostly I didn't think that much of JW for imitating JP shots so much and the hokiness with the raptors.

Tired of seeing Chris Pratt (IW) but - whatever. There will be dinosaurs. Caught a featurette on the animatronics + Jeff Goldblum. Got tickets for tonight.
