I was hoping I'd end up pleasantly surprised by this short movie but it shows that even in short form it manages to encapsulate everything that's wrong with the Jurassic Park franchise. Like literally every JP movie they still managed to stick in some annoying kids and 90% of the runtime is just people being scared of dinosaurs, and bad writing just to create more convenient drama, like the kid starting crying just as they're out of trouble, and instead of covering his mouth they try to sing to him? What the fuck? It also proves that letting the dinosaurs free in JW2 was one of the dumbest writing choices in film history because surprise surprise, they just go around killing things. This short film does nothing to justify that choice and is just further proof that all these movies are is a vessel to show dinosaurs fighting each other and terrorizing humans.
I've never hated a popular franchise as much as I do Jurassic Park. These films make so much fucking money and there's fucking NOTHING to them. Not just the new ones, even the original, all it brought to the table was "Whoaaa the CGI is so cool", and started ruining movies because everyone wants a slice of the CGI pie instead of just fucking making a movie. From the very beginning their only purpose has been to put the least work possible into the film's story and just lean heavily on "people will pay for it because people like dinosaurs." Especially kids apparently, considering how these movies always insist on having kids, because kids want a character they can see and go "That's me! I'm the kid!" And the worst part is, it fucking works. People will never stop blowing their money on this garbage because this fucking shit is what people like. They don't want a story that will make them think, they want a story that will make them alternate between "AHHHHHHH!" and "COOL!"
I agree with you but Speilbergs were great The fact that most people are circlejerking in the comments of how great that short is shows you the idiots and mongs that need to be pandered to now with every blockbuster
It's disgusting, this short was parody tier shit bad
Owen James
Just turn off your brain bro but unironically. Jw2 is completely inexcusable though. What the duck were they thinking with that ending? How is releasing dangerous prehistoric killing machines into the continental United states a morally superior or even morally gray decision?
Sebastian Morris
the original is a great film.
Dylan Nelson
Meh.
Jason Rogers
Don't mind him he gets a big kick out of being a contrarian.
Noah Martinez
I'm genuinely not saying this to be contrarian, usually I like things that are popular, such as The Beatles. But I was apparently one of the few people who read the Jurassic Park book before having seen the movie and was massively disappointed because they took a great, smart book and turned it into a mindless action flick. I WISH it was as good as the book. A movie like that would have been genuinely fantastic. But JP is not.
Xavier Davis
I've had something worse happen, which is where I wanted to recommend something to someone but someone else recommended it first, but they did it in such an obnoxious way that they put that person off wanting to check it out, even though I know that person would have liked it. It made me so angry because it was like they had ruined it for both of us at once.
Robert Martinez
Also the title of the short is fucking stupid, they make it sound like it's going to be this big awesome fight and it's literally ten seconds of two dinosaurs barely doing anything and then it's just the humans running away from the allosaurus. Also why in the fuck are people just casually camping when there's dinosaurs roaming around, why are they treating their lives like nothing has changed? It's clearly no secret that dinosaurs are out there and they're acting like it's just a minor inconvenience.
Lucas Rodriguez
It's the exact same problem as Star Wars. Cool idea conceptually, but the way they got to it is stupid as fuck. And someone who cannot write their way to such a premise naturally really shakes your faith in their ability to tell such a story with competence. Really depressing that this guy was the best they could come up with and it shows you that Star Wars would have been just as screwed if he was doing episode 9 because he cannot write for shit.
Dylan Rogers
They're just animals
Gavin Hernandez
I still don't understand how Trevorrow gets so much work. Yeah yeah, he's a Jew and reminded Spielberg of himself when he was young, but come the fuck on. The only good thing about this new Jurassic World shit was Bayona's direction (or maybe just Óscar Faura's cinematography?)
please dont talk about that movie, i try to forget it
Dominic Ramirez
Strictly speaking he does not really get a lot of work, Book of Henry flopping was enough to make Disney kick him off Star Wars and I think the only reason they let him have another crack at JW is because JW1 made so much money.
Sebastian Hall
Nah, Book of Henry flopping was just a convenient excuse. I read somewhere that KK fired him because he's very demanding AKA "hard to work with". And he's not the only director they've fired from their Star Wars films.
Brandon Cox
Well when you see how bad his movies are it's no surprise that he is difficult to work with.
Jackson Flores
>baby starts crying. >Doesn't cover it's mouth immediately. >Not doing that shit in the first place. Are Americans retarded?
Isaiah Peterson
Knowing how dumb Americans are it's a wonder they didn't start clapping and chanting "USA! USA! USA!" at the baby.
Lucas Ortiz
Ummm... That's child abuse.
David Powell
I agree. So many red flags occurred even before the dinos appeared. >"Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside" >"That's not a secret recipe!" Who writes this tripe. That's not how parents talk to their kids, and that's not how kids talk to their parents. The interaction feels completely artificial. Kids couldn't give less of a shit about how their parents BBQ chicken. Then you have the convenient interaction with the white neckbeard to show that this black man is 'hip and cool'. Then you have the interracial familia and more artificial family 'interaction'. Then you have the stupid crying child any family would have just cupped their hand over the mouth of. The stupid moment with the wife and the fire extinguisher. The stupid crossbow moment. Fuck everything except for the brief one minute dino vs dino segment was retarded. I was actually hoping the whole stupid family would get eaten, and the POV would switch to the neckbeard neighbour instead. That's how old JP would have done it.
Jaxson King
Retard, you aren't forced to agree with it. The movie poses a question, should we let dinosaurs live or not? Draw your own conclusions.
Asher Williams
The dialogue was full of "As you know" which is basically the biggest rookie mistake in writing. I don't know how a big-budget Hollywood blockbuster is able to get away with this. Do people seriously not notice anymore? It's infuriating, there are so many ways you can build the world and they choose the equivalent of "You, the character I am talking to, already know this but I am going to awkwardly bring it up for the benefit of the viewing audience."
Christian Clark
>Jw2 is completely inexcusable though. CARTOON LAVA
Lincoln Nguyen
Take your pills Ben. Also, stop posting at jurassicoutpost.
Jurassic Park hasn't even earned the right to do something like that. It's had ONE good movie and they think "Okay, time for a cinematic universe". Fuck off.
