I saw the movie on the weekend and I liked it. Much better than the last two, but obviously not as good as the first one.

I can’t wait for Jurassic World 6 when we send the dinosaurs to space!

Fast and Furious went to space, why not the Jurassic Park franchise too!

First one was grand, didn’t need to be followed up or remade. Now we have a franchise… The only remake I wouldn’t mind seeing is a more brutal first one, closer to what the book was depicting. All I’d be interested in really.

I was just saying the other day if the first one had been faithful to the ending of the book we wouldn’t have all this mess.

Both this and Five Nights at Freddy’s have an interesting problem, where they’re based around an entertainment franchise that goes wrong - but the franchise itself necessitates repeated attempts and failure.

I remember trying to like the lost world but I just can’t. Only the first is worth watching.

if yeah want an amazing dinosaur park media, check out Dinosaur Sanctuary.
they treat the dinosaurs as animals, and the whole plot revolves around the upkeep of the zoo.
it was cowritten by a paleontologist and a manga artist.

The premise of dinosaurs in the modern world is as close to evergreen as you can get. The problem isn’t that the cow has gone dry, so much as the farmers keep jerking off the bull instead.

I saw the new one with my father in law today, after not having seen one since the original trilogy. It was just not good. I'm usually able to turn off my brain and enjoy a movie regardless of the quality, but there were so many things that didn't make sense, or were glossed over without explanation, that I just couldn't suspend my disbelief.

I’m sorry, new one? You mean from like 2019 right?
Right‽

Eh, if Michael Chrichton were still alive today he’d probably condone it all so long as he got his royalty check.

I saw the first Jurassic Park. I enjoyed it. But I feel sated with that single entry. If you love these movies, more power to you, but I don’t really understand it myself.
atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 9 hours ago
The books, Jurassic Park and its sequel The Lost World, are very good and very different from the movies. I also recommend Disclosure by the same author.
Vespair@lemmy.zip 1 hour ago
In general I feel like I’m more likely to want to revisit and spend more time in the world of a good book than the world of most films, even films I enjoy, so it makes sense to me that there’s enough to easily fill two books worth.
infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 7 hours ago
Lost World had some fun stuff (Despite diverging from it’s book even worse than the first movie) but you’re really not missing much, none of the sequels come within a mile the original.
captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 8 hours ago
I saw the first one, enjoyed it…not sure I could explain the plot or what happened in it. At the time having the dinosaurs brought to life was spectacle enough; they could have made a movie about the park working correctly and it would have sold tickets.
I watched the second and third one back to back with a girl. They were alright. I don’t care to see them again. I’m not watching any more of them.

I saw the latest fuckrassic park a couple days ago. It was at best… okay. Not worth what the movie theater charges. But if you wait to stream it then it isn’t terrible. But overall, this franchise has lost its luster
But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 5 hours ago
That’s the big issue with going to the theatre. Two tickets, popcorn and a drink for my wife and I and I’m paying $50+ in Canada. I think the last movie we saw in theatres was dr strange 2 and it wasn’t worth it, before that it was avengers end game. 99% of movies just aren’t worth going to the movies for. I haven’t seen a film i would say was 100% worth it since Fury Road
tungsten5@lemmy.zip 5 hours ago
Yeah we have similar prices (US). The tickets were $27 (for my wife and myself) and $7 for a coke. If we get popcorn and snacks its just about $50+, depending on what we get. We get snacks beforehand and just hide them in my wifes purse like most people. I used to love going to the movies for the whole experience. But it just keeps getting more expensive and as of late, no good movies are coming out.
Honse@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 hours ago
I saw it and it wasn’t as bad as some of the other but not great. The big bad dies in like a single second with zero build up and its really unsatisfying. Weird character choices, unnecessary and forgetable characters mostly. The nerd guy “Harry” was the best actor for me. 6/10 not worth re-watching or thinking about again
Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 10 hours ago
6/10 is a very high score considering that review.
RazgrizOne@piefed.zip 10 hours ago
That’s an F in the US education system almost everywhere (maybe everywhere barring specific curves?) and though we may think ill of them as a third world shithole that does mean something.
Honse@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 hours ago
It didn’t make me groan from blatant plot holes or inconsistencies which is better than other movies in the franchise. Plus Industrial Light and Magic made those mutant Dinos look fuckin awesome.

Challenge: Let’s broaden the Jurassic world. How do you make a Jurassic movie without the dinosaurs breaking loose?
ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 3 hours ago
Dinosaurs want to break out again but giant asteroid is going to destroy the earth so they team up with humans to stop it. Dinosaurs offer their asteroid know how in exchange for freedom.
