Deep Wang Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 It does when someone says no one is doing something. Then, even anecdotal evidence is plenty. Like saying no one loves this movie for reasons other than nostalgia when there are tons of tweets detailing other reasons. Obviously, I know it's not everyone doing it, but it sure is a lot. Like a lot, a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Nothing wrong with nostalgia as long as it's the good kind. This movie delivers it in spades and has one of the best endings of any blockbuster movie I've seen in a long time. I wanted dinosaur subtitles, would have been hilarious!

The Futurist Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) I loved Bryce Dallas Howard s character arc. From stone cold bitch executive to T rex Amazon ! Sue me. Edited June 17, 2015 by The Futurist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) Been listening to John Williams' JP theme quite a bit this evening. Was surprised to find in my iTunes library that it's my most played Williams theme over the years. Might sound blasphemous but I think it might be his best work, even better than Star Wars. The various JP themes are just wonderful music. Edited June 17, 2015 by redfirebird2008 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkshop36 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 saw it today with my wife and son. All three of us thought it was great. a lot of fun and much better than I thought it would be. Kicked the crap out of the last two sequels. Extremely satisfying ending as well. My son loved the whole story line with the Raptors. My wife thought that they spent just the right amount time setting up the story and characters before getting to the rampaging, lol. Definitely a must own when it hits blu-ray.

JennaJ Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I loved Bryce Dallas Howard s character arc. From stone cold bitch to T rex Amazon ! Sue me. Me too. I still honestly don't get the criticism towards her. She's the character with the most complete arc and has the best hero moment. Seriously, the people who glomp onto the heels thing as if that's the most important thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Imo the most Iconic scene ne of the film was Pratt on the Motorcycle and riding with the Raptors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The heels thing seems like one of those nitpicks where it depends on whether you really enjoyed the movie or not. If you liked it you probably don't give a rat's rear, but if you didn't like it then you're more likely bothered by it. You can complain about this kind of thing in every single big budget action movie released each year. There is always something to nitpick if you want to do it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I thought it was both hilarious and awesome that she had the heels on the entire damn time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked her, she was not useless like many heroines or too Manly either . People call for stronger female characters and they end up acting like guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People dont understand that subtlety the film was also mocking female heroine stereotypes as well in the film. Like she was running and Pratt offered his hand as a gentleman and she just kept running. Edited June 17, 2015 by Telemachos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC1987 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) Owen literally commented on her shoes. It was completely self aware. Oh, and if anyone thinks there aren't women that leave their heels on no matter what, go over to YouTube and search for "Mariah Carey MTV Cribs".

Oh that's totally the most iconic scene, but I think Claire had a more active role in the big climax scene (IE she got to be the hero). Should I spoiler tag this even if it's not specific?

redfirebird2008 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I was a bit concerned the local Regal would give its premium large screen (RPX) to Inside Out, but nope. Just bought my ticket for a second 2D RPX viewing of JP4 on Friday night. So glad this 2D huge screen option is available compared to IMAX always in 3D.
