Forums - Movies & TV - So I just saw Jurassic World! [Spoilers]

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS AMAZING. I can't express how excited and happy I am right now with just words!

I thought everything about the movie was great. I know there are other people out there that didn't like it, but I loved it. I loved how they explained how the park managed to open even after the events of Jurassic Park and that they even gave a little explanation as to why the dinosaurs don't have feathers to the people who complain about inaccuracy. 

It thought the Indominus Rex was brilliant for a monster-type movie and all the scenes with it were really tense, same with the raptors as well. They did a really good job with the raptors, especially when it was revealed that the Indominus was part raptor and then the raptors turned on everyone. That shit was intense. 

AND THE FINALE. SO GOOD. 

I think people aren't giving this movie credit for how clever it is, because there was a lot of explanation into this movie and how it all worked. It might seem straight forward but there's a lot more going on than there is shown.

I would give it a 10/10. Best Jurassic Park sequel there is. 



Around the Network

Watched this morning. Very good movie to me. Predictable a bit but enjoyable. 8/10



The 10 year old in me loved the movie. It was frantic, fast [aced and had amazing special effects. That is from a Saturday night entertainment point of view. 9/10, almost as good as it gets.

When it comes down to just how good of a film it was: 3/10. Full of cliches, dull script, terrible acting and downright insultingly stupid plot and science fiction elements.

Never the less, for what I expected, it lived up, and quickly solidified 2015 as the best fx-driven year in the new milenium



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

I thought it was utter garbage. Spoilers:

1. Using raptors for the military just because a guy trained them to stand still when feeding him rats? There are enormous political repercussions for for non targeted causalities as it is using smart weapons and it of goes against international laws of inhumane weaponry. This would never, ever been considered in real life.

2. How does that Rex/Raptor hybrid know that they're watching it's thermal readings? It wouldnt be aware of that to make its plan.

3. They have a backup tracking implant in that rex/raptor hybrid yet they decide to open it's "cage" instead of looking at the reading from the tracking implant? (which at the time is still implanted) This is an absurdly unrealistic response.

4. Rex/Raptors literally "talk" to each others, convincing raptors to turn? Thats now how animal communication or behavior psychology works.

5. Horrible acting - kid just tazes a raptor in back of the van and says he cant wait to tell his mom. Is that really how the average kid would behave in that situation, rather than crying, shaking and otherwise pissing his pants? Many other instances of inappropriate reactions considering the circumstances.

6. Guy/woman see a dead dino when they leave the car to go look for the kids. They actually stop to shed tears over the creature and spend a few minutes petting it while her two nephews are out there possibly dead or dying? Unreal how badly the script writers dont understand basic human behavior and psychology.

7. Ending battle was a joke - you solve a problem of a giant trex like creature escaping by letting out an actual trex? and your assumption is that will help rather than double the problem? Idiocy upon idiocy. Rather than use military grade weapons, their idea of containment is to let loose raptors and when that doesnt work, let loose a trex.

8. Absolutely no tension - straight up action only. JP 1 and 2 had a lot less deaths but far more tensions and fear.

There are so many other issues, but this movie was a pile of garbage. The script is at fault here - it's plain garbage.



Really a terrible movie, in a bad way, so stupid.

But a good movie if you have nothing else to watch, and if it's free



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

It was a good movie, but far from perfect.

The last fight scene was definitely the highlight for me, though, so epic!



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

It's a good action movie, but it has plot holes the size of the Grand Canyon.



I think the movie was a bad movie, but it was entertaining.

And yeah some huge plot holes if you understand anything about genetics in particular.

*Spoilers*

I felt sorry for the woman with the horrible death. What did she do to deserve that? And the heroine, responsibility never dawned on her and she gets the guy. I was like... really? Hundreads of people died and she was there kissing the guy at the end like it was nothing to do with her plus happy ending with the family? That was just wrong. That woman was a monster, she deserved to go to prison at the end for not having evacuated the park before it was too late.

Oh and Bieber lookalike (was the role supposed to have been for him?)... totally bad.

 

But you know... you go to see Dinos rampanging and you get your money's worth.



I liked the movie tbh. I just watch it for what it is, I usually don't care if a movie has got plot holes or whatever generally as long as it is entertaining.

This here bit annoyed me however. This was just fucking dumb.

1 - Yeah, but that was Hoskins idea. Plus it obviously ends up not being a good idea because they turn and kill almost everyone there aside from Owen and the other main characters. Hoskins is the one in the entire movie who thinks that using them is a good idea, even though it's not, and once he takes control he uses the park getting destroyed to his own personal benefit to try and test them. 

4 - The Indominus was part raptor so it made sense that it could communicate with the other raptors. 

6 - I feel like this was mainly just to show the character Claire that these animals weren't just science experiments like people on the island keep acting like they are. This is the first time where she actually sees one up close and personal so it shows her that they are actually animals and changes her view on them.

7 - Letting the T-Rex out was more of a last resort sort of thing. I mean think about it. At that point how many military personal were even on the island anymore? Hoskins took control of them and ordered them to take the research and leave. In fact most of the people working on the island left, aside from the one guy who decided to stay behind in the control room and opened the T-Rex door for Claire. The civilians were still hiding in the one place on the island as well. The raptors weren't going to be able to take down the Indominus by themselves so it made sense in a sort of "fight fire with fire" way that releasing the T-Rex would make it fight the Indominus. There were no other options at that point to take anyway. How else were they going to defeat it?
