Jurassic World (SPOILERS!)

[Wor-Gar]

Indiana isnt a difficult character for interpretation...

Only if you don't care.

 

[a-dev]

everyone always craps on the lost world an that was miles better than this.... even the girl taking out the raptor was not as stupid as some of the stuff in this movie (like the heels...)

Have to agree with that. I mean I've seen some guys I supremely respect crap on TLW in favour of this film....ehhhh, really guys?......The Lost World's T-Rex scenes alone defecate all over this movie.

yeah pretty much. the stampede at the beginning will always be one of my favorite JP moments in general. I was amazed the first time I saw it and it still impresses me. I love seeing the dinosaurs run. I love seeing the cars chasing the dinosaurs, love the motorcycles, it was pretty awesome (Roland was pretty iconic too)

The Gymnast girl moment was stupid, but that was nothing compared to the scene of Claire outrunning a Rex in heels.... that's beyond ridiculous

Yeah that really stood out. Girls have a damned hard time walking in those things. Really it's to the point of ridiculousness. Yet this woman manages to stay ahead of a T-Rex. I don't care how old the Rex is, its walk-span alone should be enough to catch a woman in heels.

 

[Chapter 2099]

Claire was a track athlete in high school. She would run the **** out of them heels - certainly an unbelievable thing seeing her compete in the 40-yard dash while sporin' Jimmy Choo's.

If everyone would have read the Jurassic World companion novel, they would know this.

being a Track Athlete won't save you from this!

And you might say, "But crows, the shoes are such a small thing to get so mad about"
well, so was the gymnastics scene. it was a 20 second scene about a girl pushing a raptor... Claire had the heels on The ENTIRE movie. everyone hates on Lost World over a 20 second scene but Im supposed to accept the hell bullcrap? lol

I enjoyed TLW when I saw it -- the trailer/cliff sequence being my favorite -- but there are a ton of "stupid" things in Lost World. A ton, not just the gymnastics -- which is about as stupid as the "sailing over the grid" display in the original Jurassic Park ("I can do this").

Just a few of the stupid moments include:
- the "stampede" -- sorry, yes, it's silly. Dinos of all kinds running together at the same speed, and not one of them tries to change direction?
- relatively small team of InGen guys wraggling what looks like hundreds of dinos into one area rather than using a helicopter to tranquilize? Nothing about InGen's operation there makes much sense if you think about their goal? Nor does Roland's deal -- why would InGen let this "big game hunter" cartoon kill one of their created creatures? I'm sure there's a cash number that Roland would have said OK to. Just hunting one and knocking it out should have been enough for him.
- the trailer falling away yet not touching the three people hanging on the rope...?
- running around with baby T-rex? That thing would have squirmed around and latched onto your face.
- Malcolm's daughter is a stowaway.
- the crazy choreography between Raptor and Malcolm at the end, who looks to be running from a vacuum cleaner he's moving so slow. Waiting for the windshield to crack? And all the stunt rolling and falling that Moore does?
- Rex breaking out of steel hull of ship? You know how heavy those doors are? Of course, there's so much that's stupid in San Diego its not worth going over.

There's much more of of course...

 

[greygoose]

I watched TLW for the first time in a few years last week. It's far from a perfect movie/sequel but it's still good for a dino fix and it does add something to the JP universe.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I'd much rather watch JPII than JPIII.

I agree, but given how much praise JW is getting.. JP2 -/- JW

Both are bad.

 

[GasparZizou]

Yeah between JP2,3 and World I wouldn't pick any of them, but the old ones at least have part of the original cast so that makes them slightly less ******, the new one, just little to nothing redeemable.

 

[Xenoburger_]

3:00, 3:56, and 5:40 are easily the coolest parts in the entire movie IMO.

I love how Blue does his heroic raptor hoot and charges in, pouncing on the Indominus, giving the T-Rex time to regain her strength and stance, and angrily chomp down on the Idominus' neck. Then we see Blue and the Rex simultaneously shred the **** out of the Indominus. So awesome.



It's funny. I think this is the worst film in the franchise (maybe on par with JP3), but I enjoy it the most.

 

[crows]

I'd much rather watch JPII than JPIII.

I much rather watch Lost world than Jurassic World
any day

JW even failed at the basics. The cinematography was pure garbage, a torture to sit through.

at least Lost World looks excellent if nothing else. (And the pace is good too) Jurassic World had awful pacing

you know, I can give you that one, I also hated the cinematography in Ant-Man which to me is usually a deal breaker with movies, I can't stand it, but with these films I was able to give them a pass as I did enjoy them a lot despite their visual flaws.

 

[WesMordine]

You may overanalyze things, guys. This film was pure fun!

And that woman ran on heels for real. Gotta give Bryce credit! Its not like you keep a spare pair of running shoes with you at all times for the genetically-altered-dinosaur-breaks-free days.

No scene in this movie broke my enjoyment of it. Bryce was great, Chris was great, Blue was AWESOME. And old Rexy... amazing... so much joy and nostalgia.

It's hardly over-analyzing when the script is t-bagging your face.

But it was much fun, I give you that, it provided much laughing and finger pointing material.

That was fun too, had an awesome design that is severely lacking in collectible form, and was a better film than Godzilla 2014.
