Jurassic World: Dominion (Colin Trevorrow, 2021) Movie • Page 32

Just my assumption, but to me, it feels like they didn't know how to wrap up the trilogy or actually deal with the whole "dinosaurs aren't contained to an island" problem in a satisfactory way so they pivoted away from this whole issue completely. They couldn't commit to an ending so they did a side quest instead.

In basically every other movie besides Fallen Kingdom, the movie is over when everyone escapes the island. You can't do that anymore when the dinosaurs are free and roaming the planet. So instead of finding some sort of (admittedly ambitious) ending where all of the dinosaurs die or even implying that the humans will eventually be overtaken because they've officially crossed over to the point of no return, the writers just invented a side problem to solve (the locusts).

I feel like that's why they built up this "dinosaurs are loose" problem so much and then....just waved it away in two lines at the end. Herbivores are fine, carnivores got picked up and sent to a sanctuary....even though every movie has shown us that it's not that easy lol.

 

Hmmmm

 

We gonna see dinos get spin kicked? Maybe.

 

Well that was fast

 

He apparently wanted it to be X-rated with several dinosaur sex scenes.

 

he simply wanted it to be good

 

yeah that’s what I said

 

Dinosaur dong

 

Just get Gareth Edwards

 

Yes please

 

The dinosaurs don't appear onscreen until midway through the movie.

 

correct, but a velociraptor will recreate the Vader hallway scene

 

Yes, I wonder what could have inspired Edwards to take such an approach lol

 

I'm making the joke anyway.

 

So goddamn depressing

 

It's depressing, but the box office has quite frankly borne this out. The films are successful so there's no need to shake up the formula. They just churn one out, film it, and print money.

 

There would be enough time if the studio wasn’t glued to a summer 2025 release.

It’s not like an extra year will hurt. A bad movie will hurt, however.

 

It’s just like Tarantino with his “final film”, they’re just self imposing these problems on themselves. Yet they act like they have a gun to their head

 

$50 says this won’t be close to the quality of story telling in Camp Cretaceous

 

They should just hire Trevorrow again so that way I know I never have to bother checking it out.

 

"not enough time to work with new ideas"

so you're saying it's gonna suck!

 

A majority of the films in the series are bad. It would be off-brand to make a good one at this point.
