    Surprised there's no thread on this but didn't see anything in Media Central.

    Anyway, I watched Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom this weekend. Thank god I didn't pay for it. It's even dumber than the first Jurassic World, if that's even possible. :blink:

    Don't waste your time unless you like dinosaurs to the extent that you must see any film that involves them.

    I enjoyed it.
    I wish Jeff Goldblum had had more presence in the movie.
    And our favorite T Rex and Deinonychus taking names and kicking ass is always fun to watch.

    There were some good parts, but the RLM guys got it right, half of it sucks and half is entertaining. It really depends on which half you like.

    I had intended to see this in the theater, and had several possible opportunities, but...my enthusiasm just wasn't there.

    Will see it on home video, though.

    Thus is getting pretty savagely reviewed
    Not surprising as the last one was a disaster

    I thought "JURASSIC WORLD: DOMINION" was alright but something very stupid that they did in & with the movie is

    I've never seen the previous 2 movies in the JURASSIC WORLD Trilogy nor 1997's "JURASSIC PARK: THE LOST WORLD". How are those 3 Jurassic movies & how do they measure up?

    Just saw dominion and do not bother. There are no new impressive dino scenes. The nostalgia of seeing the old characters and the new ones sucks and is poorly written. The movie was obviously written by a 5 year old with ADHD.

    From the opening scene it was all humans deserve to die. They are all really stupid. The opening news report shows there are dinosaurs all over the world killing people and they are having a debate around killing them because some people do not want to extinct the invasive species we created and are killing the planet. Oh, and some guy might be making medical breakthroughs with them so let them just roam about freely. It gets stupider from here.

    Just for anyone who ends up watching this, just watch it with the idea chris pratt has been spending the whole time trying to get his wife killed. There is no other way to explain why he has put a velociraptor that only likes him outside his house, and it is blatantly obvious during the plane crash scene.

    My own HOW IT SHOULD HAVE ENDED for "JURASSIC WORLD: DOMINION":

    The protagonists go to Manhattan & track down Dr. Strange & ask, beg him to cast a spell which will remove ALL of the dinosaurs & locusts from the world. Dr. Strange complies & the movie ends there , with a restored world & no dinosaurs in it except for birds.

    ;)
