Are weekend threads always this heated?

 

 

Only when there's a movie opening that's related to a massive franchise.

cannastop's slower version of the gif is better. can see that tongue moving and all mhmmm.

Hmm. Aren’t there some herbivorous dinosaurs that we would love to see more of in the next JP-film? This franchise has been mostly reliant on the carnivores. How come? No love for dinosaurs like Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, Stegosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus & Stygimoloch, Apatosaurus & Brachiosaurus?

Dinos eating ppl is the main appeal tbh

 because nobody likes vegans. all those dinosaurs do is talk about their diet every chance they get.

Uhm...did you see the movie? Plenty of love for herbivores there, (but i dont want to spoil anything since naming certain species could maybe be a spoiler?). Its just obvious, that carnivores are way better suited for action or suspense sequences.

Is Apatosaurus the dinosaur who just stands around and does hit-and-miss dinosaur improv while the camera indifferently looks on?

Btw the babysitter getting destroyed is still the funniest thing in the first JW, movie coulda used more of that. Can't believe how many ppl soapboxed about that

I wouldn’t mind seeing the franchise do a coming of age story where Sarah the Triceratops helps little Timmy through the trials and tribulations of his parent’s divorce.

Yep, it would be higher than Thor, Thor 2, Thor 3, Captain America, Captain America 2, Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Doctor Strange, The Incredible Hulk, Ant-Man, Spider-Man Homecoming, and Guardians of the Galaxy. For a box office flop that is not too bad.

 

Can you imagine 20 Jurassic films in 10 years ? Each would be doing about 10$  worldwide. Right now in 2018 , 2 MCU films will do much better than JW2 both domestic and worldwide.

The other day they announced that one of the new female characters in this had a moment that revealed she was a lesbian cut because "it wasn't important to the story." That's disappointing and silly. Was Iron Man 3 kid and Simon Spier's parents getting divorced at all pertinent to the plot of the previous movie?

worst dino in jp franchise

I read that but I also read what the scene was and I cringed about as hard as you can cringe so I can't blame them for cutting it

it's great because 1. it doesn't linger on it and feels tonally consistent and 2. it's surrounded by one of the best setpieces in these films.
