Jurassic World Dominion was a pretty disappointing movie to me. But now with the extended cut out there is a new way to watch the film with several deleted scenes added back in. Not much with dinosaurs but there is more story stuff to talk about.

Good to have you back! Any plans to review CC s5?
Hey klayton Just want to mention did you watch Jurassic world camp cretaceous season 5 it was the final season of camp cretaceous
But that's not all we have a interactive game for it coming this November or January 2023 and a new confirmed animated tv series for next year
I agree
But I found camp cretaceous interesting and it was a success
It is kinda a shame that ,,The lost World " and ,,Fallen Kindgom" never got a directors cut.
I agree with you
A Fallen kingdom director cut would be amazing! The lost world would also be great cuz the deleted scenes are really interesting
I agree

I want a JP3 director's cut. I've always liked that movie and I think they cut a hell of a lot out of it.
I don’t know why they chose the locusts as the big threat instead of a specific dinosaur, they could’ve brought in the Troodons from “Jurassic Park the Game” as a parasitic threat that serves the same purpose.
Dodgson’s plan in this movie is kind of a reference to the first novel where he tells the heads of Biosyn about how InGen could create little pet dinosaurs and have it so they can only eat InGen made pet food.
Man, JPTG Troodons are so underrated, easily the most disturbing species in this franchise. Can't believe they didn't even bother to bring them back at least once.
I am not sure maybe slight defending but locust is already a pest and increasing it and just manipulating them to not affect biosyn crops can keep biosyn away from the whole disaster
Troodons.... The source of PTSD from ARK players...
The big threat should have been finding out something crazy like all the way back at the beginning they had to patch the dino DNA sequences with something more than just frog DNA. Like....human? Just say that the whole DNA sequence falls apart and fails unless human DNA is added to the mix. Now there's a huge ethical issue because they're part human. And the longer they live, the smarter they get. Which would explain why the T-Rex has survived and evaded capture for so long. She's the oldest and had the most time to really start figuring things out. But BioSyn is still holding them hostage to force Wu to participate on their military contract to create the Homosapiasaurus. Kinda like the Indominus but MUCH more human and intelligent. Then the Homosapiasauruses pull a Skynet, become "self aware" and escape. That'd be better than locusts maybe..
@@painpeko1259 I don't like that their endgame was locustsauruses but I WILL defend that dumb plot point on the grounds that it actually feels VERY true to Crichton's novels. It might not be the most awesome idea for a Jurassic Park movie but I'll be damned if it doesn't feel exactly like something that would be in an actual Michael Crichton book..
I still think a faithful adaptation of Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park, lends itself perfectly to be turned into a limited series on TV/streaming.
You do know the first film is what Crichton wanted..he was pushed by investors and had to write the books six times, they wanted it to be a gruesome horror book-my guess is Stephen King and horror was huge during that time. Crichton met Stephen Spielberg on their work together for a TV adaption of Crichton's Andromeda Strain, they became friends and eventually Universal won the bid for the film adaption and it was destiny that Spielberg directed it- it is obvious of the outcome that Crichton got his original vision. If you do your research you'll see his first script was focused more on kids and the awe of dinosaurs.
@@DrangusKahnI remember the movie rights, and merch rights were sold before he wrote the book. Thanks for the other info, I didn't know all that
I would love to see a series based strictly on the first book
So basically an R-18 JP movie, I kinda dig it.
Here is how Dominion could've been improved :
Remove Masie's origin retcon entirely
Show Blue attacking the hunters on screen like the scene in Fallen Kingdom without slow motion
Before crashing into the frozen lake show Owen and Kayla Watts put snow gear on. ( Or keep it the same just show that Owen changed into something else after falling through ).
Have Maisie with PTSD from the Indoraptor incident
Give Owen Grady and Alan Grant's raptor conversation more lengthy
Show the ship crew being attacked by the Mosasaurs ( like water filling up , some try to escape but get chomped )
Show the LW Pterandons more up close and have the JP3 Pterandon fly getting recognized by Alan Grant
Have Dodgson feel scared instead of casually trying to talk with the Dilophosaurus
Include the deleted scene from the concept art showing the Gallimimus with a herd of deer at a lake
Include the scene from the concept art showing the Mamenchisaurus and Gallimimus herd along in the valley
When Zia and Franklin help Claire with the baby Nasutoceratops and they are escaping , show more of the Ceratopsians in the field ( Mainly Triceratops )
"Here is how Dominion could've been improved"
*2000 pages later*
I personally liked the retcon but don’t think it should’ve been linked to fixing the locust issue.
Have spinosaurus and rexy vs giga
Give us more dinosaur screen time
And make the Giganotosaurus more of a threat.
I think the Lockwood plot hole can be explained this way.
Charlotte wanted a child, so she cloned herself, I think that's the film's intention anyway, but it is not very clear.
Maisie is still a clone, but like a birthed clone, not a test tube clone. So if Lockwood supported Charlotte's idea, Hammond and him could still have a falling out.
The mental gymnastics required for this series could kick a raptor out a window.
I understood the kick the Raptor out the window reference
Forget about that. How Maisy is still younguer after 25 years of been a clone?
@@alang.bandala8863 well, she’s genetically different from a normal person, so there’s that
@@alang.bandala8863 She’s not 25 years old, the camera footage of Charlotte pregnant is labeled 2008, she was either working at Jurassic World or at Isla Sorna under Masrani Global.
Nobody cares about the plot holes
I would love a 3 hour cut with much more interactions between characters. Dogdeson needs more scenes and interaction with the cast. Alan Grant should discuss raptor psychology with Owen. (What went wrong in 93, how did he get their respect, how are they compared to his research etc...)
I think what sucks is how the extended cut is almost 3 hours long and they STILL couldn't do any of that
"Dogdeson"
also no those are all terrible ideas and Owen Grady is the worst character of all time. Blue's offspring should've gotten killed.
No, Dodgson can go burn in h-
@@NightLandscapes256 If you want to see the REAL Dodgson in action go watch my latest video. Masterpiece tbh.
The extended edition is better. You get the prologue back, the t Rex at the drive in, and a couple of scenes added in. I particularly liked the extended scenes with Alan and Ellie.
To me the extended cut puts back in all the reasons why I'm supposed to care about these characters. I think the cuts they made for the theatrical seriously hurt the story. Less chase scenes would honestly have been better.
@@lionspawfilmandphoto I agree.
@@LilyRose8959 So in other words, you like terrible movies and have the attention span of a goldfish
Definitely like the extended cut more than the theatrical one. Wish they’d release versions of the previous films like this with cut scenes. Especially the lost world.
Interestingly enough, you can see in the special features of The Lost World Jurassic Park Collector's Edition DVD, there are some additional shots that were filmed but were never used in the final cut of the film, with 2D hand-drawn cutouts as placeholders of where the CGI dinosaurs would be in the omitted shots.
Spielberg blocks any alternate versions of his films coming out.
@@scottb3034 spielberg is a hack
Nah both versions sucked hard. These movies are atrocities any way you slice them. They're not even bad in a way that's remotely entertaining.
both we're good, but the extended cut was better (even though I sadly never saw it yet)
Obviously, the Extended Cut is better. Especially the prologue, the proper introduction of Rainn Delacourt and the scene where they explain why the locusts were created in the first place add so much important context that I can't quite fathom how they even considered removing them from the theatrical cut.
Like all the other Jurassic-film, I like Dominion, but I would not say it is particularly great. Like you said, so much convenience (Alan and Ellie want to go to BioSyn: how convenient, that Ian Malcom works there and just happened to invite them. Delacourt kidnaps Maisie and Beta: how convenient, that the CIA is already looking for him, knows where he is and that Franklin is able to tell Owen and Claire).
Here and there, there are amazing scenes (the Therizinosaurus, the bit where Giga and Rexy "argue" without fighting each other to death), but the biggest problem is that it really does not feel like "Dinosaurs live in our world" or "This is the end of the Jurassic-era" (which I know was never Colin's intention).
If this series concludes, then the non-avian dinosaurs should either all be extinct again á la "we made a mistake we should never repeat" or the dinosaurs "win" and the humans get extinct. Or instead of movies, you make TV-shows where in each episode, people deal with dinosaur-encounters, Primeval style.
I haven't heard from you in a while, it's good to have you back.
My overall thoughts about the Extended Cut version of Jurassic World Dominion are...
-The opening works much better with the prologue added back into the movie, plus the scene where Rexy ( the Tyrannosaurus Rex from the first Jurassic Park film ) crashes into the Drive-in theater. Even the exposition-as-dialogue news report plays much better after the prologue (when it is punctuated by the Mosasaurus attack at the end). The prologue also matches the film's conclusion, visually speaking (sunrise and then a sunset over similar terrain)
- The editing feels less jumbled in some places, and some of the weirdest dialogue from the theatrical cut (Dr Grant's introduction) plays better now.
- Dr Sattler and Dr Grant's reunion is better paced and more natural feeling. The scene prior ( Dr Sattler getting the sample from the locust) is a decent character moment and it leads into the Dr Grant + Dr Sattler discussion so much better. By the time we get to "are you coming, or what?" line, the whole scene just feels less hurried and that particular moment more "earned."
- The additional scenes before Maisie and Beta's kidnapping give more context and also slow the first 30 minutes down a bit (in a good way).
- The cowboy/Parasaurolophus scene in the beginning is made more tolerable, just because we get more information about what Owen is actually doing and who he is working with. Before that, it just made no sense at all why he was picking off an animal from its herd and taking it...somewhere? The action elements are still over-the-top, but it isn't as standalone feeling as an action beat.
- I know it looked cheesy, but the lightning flash revealing Rexy's ancestor from the prologue was pretty cool.
- Deleted scenes that were removed are now added back into movie.
Overall, while Jurassic World Dominion isn't my favorite in the franchise and I still have gripes with the movie, the Extended Cut is slightly better than the theatrical cut.
I kind of see why they changed the opening, because the movie feels like it has multiple, disconnected prologues before the actual story starts & that feels kind of slow, albeit- I could not give a crap & am very happy with it all back in. Admittedly, showing how Biosyn got the T-Rex wasn't necessary, but was just an awesome scene in the first place. All the rest of the scenes they took out, though, I really don't get. They must have really been dead set on a specific runtime, or something, because no other scene in the extended version wasn't necessary.
Why are you typing all this out for a movie that's this bad? There's literally nothing to see here.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 I'm just expressing my thoughts about the Extended Cut, that's all.
@@dereklopez9060 No attitude towards this movie other than of pure scorn is justifiable.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 Ok.
I also enjoyed the Extended Cut too. Glad to know others also like it. The new Jurassic World book is released either next week or the week after, incase you didn't know :)
When I think about the locust, I think about some lines Malcolm says in Fallen Kingdom; mainly "Genetic power has now been unleashed and what's going to be done with it? It ain't going to stop with the deextinction of the dinosaurs." When you look at a line like that, now you know that genetic power isn't limited to bringing back dinosaurs, anything that man can do with genetic power, man is going to do it.
I’m sure you were you’d have been ok with a Jurassic movie with only locusts in it and zero dinosaurs in it
@@veryberry_yt There were dinosaurs in Dominion, they just took a back seat to locusts.
@@CodyJMinor0620 And that's the problem. The locusts would've been an acceptable if they were the subject of an episode of a Jurassic TV show, but definitely not here. The threat should be mostly about the dinosaurs who escaped or got auctioned off causing an effect on surrounding humans, but the film just wasn't interested in that.
Final line at least should've been "life finds a way" but in the context of that it applies to mankind as well.
The reason Hammond and Lockwood got into a fight was because in 1995, Lockwood had the idea for human cloning to make InGen more money after the failure of Jurassic Park. Hammond hated the idea, then later in 2009, Lockwood covered up Charlotte’s genetic disorder by saying she died in a car crash and he cloned Maisie instead, which is what he told Eli Mills.
I'm genuinely interested in seeing your source on this, it would clear up a lot. Secondly, Wu says explicitly that Charlotte cloned Maisie herself and her genetic disorder was common knowledge among her peers, even Ellie knew about it AND the clone. Again, if you can link a source to anything confirming what you're saying that would be much appreciated.
@@ChrisMeadows1992 Sorry, I don’t have it. I read it a few months ago. But, I’m writing a novel on everything that happened in Jurassic Park history from 1974-1998. It’s not some dumb fan thing, I’m only using already existing movie canon info, so you might enjoy it. It’ll be done in a few months, but I can get back to you on it
How would human cloning even make InGen more money? Where’s the market in cloning humans?
@@Weirdanimalboy I don't know his source but if I were to make an assumption on where the market is it would be the genetic hybrid Dino soldiers from the unmade Jurassic park. I think it was supposed to be 3 if I'm remembering correctly.
@@basementcuts8884 There’s nothing in Lockwood’s character that would imply he’d be interested in a militaristic dino-human super race. Fallen Kingdom characterizes him as an old man not too dissimilar to Hammond who just misses his daughter.
Yes it is better, because it's the original theatrical release, but Universal thought it was a bit too long, yet I liked it, especially the opening that was released in theaters during the premiere of Fast And Furious 9 in 2020, and made it's premiere on NBC back in 2021. I loved the opening scene with the Rex getting chased by the helicopter, then it ends with the DOMINION logo.
Finally, you’re back after a huge month event of Jurassic World Dominion in June 2022.
Great points you’ve made on the Extended Cut of Jurassic World Dominion and I hope the Filmmakers could do something very new and different and make it a better improvement over Jurassic World Dominion.
Nice Work and as always, Take It Easy and Life Finds A Way.
life doesn't find a way
Goddamn this month or two has me worried for this channel. Very happy you are back
You mention the idea of where Jurassic Park 6 was ment to be more like Battle at Big Rock, and 7 be more of how Dominion went.
Now I really like the idea of that Jurassic Movie where Battle at Big Rock actually services as the Prologe, then you show events afterwards, and slowly introduce the ideas that were put on display in Dominion, but make sure all of the Characters have somewhat of a presence in both parts
wtf are you talking about
I loved JP.
I loved TLW.
I like JP3
I loved JWFK.
This movie broke my goddamn heart...💔
And JW1?
I liked the series best to worst in the chronological order jp3 had some corny moments but still like it more that the JW series. The last one was pretty horrible.
Someone who rated them the same way i did :) I loved jwfk tooooooo
@@giulianodervelociraptorder734 oh yeah, I loved that too. Forgot to mention it
@@fossil-bit8439 JP3 wasn't anywhere near as illogical as Dominion. Even the talking raptor scene you can chalk up to being a premonition or a foreshadowing, but I have zero answers for the stupidity of Dominion
My answer is yes, the extended cuts makes the film better by fleshing out needed character moments, but it does not fix the bigger issues it has.
My thoughts exactly. Still, it's not the worst thing that's come out of the franchise (Camp Cretaceous season 4 with his lame villain, boring romance and weird robots it's even worse than Jp3 and Dominion combined) or the worst movie of 2022 (it's not Morbius for God's sake). Also, if you compared with franchises like Terminator or X-men, whose last movies were a disaster with no sense, dumb ideas no one ask for and huge plot holes, Dominion's mistakes are way lower and gives at least a coherent ending to the franchise, no more no less.
But don't get me wrong, for the supossed EPIC CONCLUSION of this franchise, it could have been so much better.
Jurassic World Dominion is a global action movie with horror elements and I unironically love it. You make good points I just don’t care;
The movie is too much fun (extended version) and I have watched it several times at this point.
Absolutely agree that Jeff and Dr. Malcolm need to continue to show up in the franchise in some capacity. Ever since reading the original book and watching the original movie, that character was my instant favorite!
(Also I know I'm a broken record at this point haha, but I would still love a play-through of Scan Command/Dinosaur Battles and/or and analysis on how the Primos project and remote control systems play into the most recent films! Love your work!)
Ian Malcolm is a terrible character that doesn't say anything intelligent but everyone pretends he does and children like to larp and absorb his nonsense ideology.
My overall thoughts on the extended cut is to me is better paced at least in the beginning the later half does stagger but I like the fact that with them adding back the prologue does help the battle with Rexy and the Giganotosaurus which I really appreciate it glad to hear your thoughts on the extended edition.
Nah it just sucks
@@neo-filthyfrank1347can you stop crying pls?
@@AxeltheKing1000 Lmao at someone with an anime pfp telling anyone what to do while on a JW cringe video no less.
It lacked a spinosaur
Glad to hear from you again Klayton. I love your videos and really hope this channel for your Jurassic content doesn't shut down.
Glad to see you are posting video's again, I really enjoy them.
I love them all but I feel as if it's History repeats it's self (My POV)
Jurassic Park - Jurassic World = Best
Lost World - Fallen Kingdom = Dark tone
JPIII - Dominion = What happen???
But over all Jurassic Park is my number 1 film and it has been since the VHS days.
Yes, the extended cut is better, the scenes re-added are great, especially the drive in scene, the extra moments in the dino trade/fighting scene is good.
JP is all about Dr. Grant and the love of cool wildlife! Malcolm certainly brings witty banter to the table, but Grant is the soul!
Yeah grant is what makes Jurassic Park Jurassic Park. Malcolm is too trendy, the rockstar. Don't get me wrong Malcolm and Jeff are my second favorite in the entire franchise but grant was and always should be the main man.
Malcolm is a joke compared to Grant. No, they are not "both good", one of them sucks.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 how so? They are both awesome in so many aspects
@@ericwest881 Ian Malcolm just spouts pretentious drivel that literally means nothing while 14 year olds gobble it up and act like the movie now has really deep and intelligent themes when like, no lmao.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 What he says is quite important to, essentially, the entire franchise lol, wdym? He's been against dinosaurs being kept alive, he predicted the horrible accident on Nublar, he was right about basically everything. Haters gonna hate I guess 🤷
Klayton's back! Gonna give this a watch myself very shortly, but this made my day just seeing you man
I haven't seen the extended version of Dominion yet, but I did watch the original version with my Mom earlier this month, and we both had a good time with the film. I've actually started to warm up to the film in recent months. It's still not the best entry in the series, but it's still something at least. I'm still so happy they brought back Alan, Ellie and Ian for that film.
I liked the extended cut, but it improves the movie slightly in my opinion, also I liked what you said about how the movie forgot about it's Man vs. Nature theme and how Dominion focused on coexistence with the dinosaurs. Hearing you mentioned it could be a reason why I felt indifferent to Dominion at the end.🙂👍🦕🦖
Yes! Been waiting for your opinion about the Extended Cut. Glad you're back!
I think the reason Hammond and Lockwood fell out is because maybe Lockwood took the blame for charlotte. Like maybe he realized people would think cloning yourself is messed up so he helped her fake her death in a car crash so that she could create Masie?
Showing LOVE for the channel, it's been a great ride my man and I will always keep up with you on this channel because of course I'm a huge Jurassic Park Franchise fan but yes I too was disappointed in the newest addition to the franchise. I'm keeping up with you on dragoncurve too but I've been a subscriber for several years and you truly have educated me and helped me understand the Jurassic Franchise better than I personally thought I did but seriously Klayton thank you man for this channel!!! Thanks again man and I truly do appreciate everything you done on this channel. Have a blessed day everyone.
Cringe. "OMG I love a channel that pumps out meaningless, mindless entertainment for me OMG OMG".
Heck yeah, you’re back! Been waiting for this video. 🦖
I love your vids bro the slo-mo cinematic shots you add in like the dna can look soo good i wish the films had more of that stuff
Think you nailed it. My only hope for Dominion is that it has set up something greater that is still to come. Now, I have not seen the extended cut yet, but I am not in a rush. I felt so let down from this movie. It hyped me up to be the film that I was subconsciously hoping to see, which you eluded too, and that was the "Planet if the Apes" but in Jurassic style. I have read the recent comments from Colin and it seems that this movie was all about giving the franchise different ways to go, and expand the universe so to speak. Which I guess I am grateful for. Time will tell I suppose. As for Dominion as a film itself, it is the lowest out of all 6 films in my opinion. My question to you would be, "Do you think it was negatively impacted by the pandemic?" I have not seen a lot of discussion on that. Anyways, I appreciate your content and look forward to future content.
I'd love to have a 3 and half hour cut and extended additions of this movie
I keep saying that same thing
It’s not going to save the plot but sure
3 hours and nothing longer than that would be better, plus Jurassic World Dominion once had the nickname of “The Avengers Endgame of Jurassic” which is also a 3 hour film, so it would’ve been fitting if Jurassic World Dominion was also 3 hours long. Currently the film is just over 2 hours and 20 minutes if you exclude credits for the extended version, the theatrical version of the movie was 2 hours 15 minutes if you exclude credits btw. So for the extra 40 minutes in the extended version to make it have a 3 hour runtime, imagine if you filled up the majority of that runtime with mostly dinosaur based screentime, like giving Giganotosaurus a kill scene as one example, and there’s lots of other scenes you could do with that much extra screentime too, if that were to happen, you could balance out the human screentime, locust screentime and dinosaur screentime and you could technically give the dinosaurs more screentime than the locusts if those extra 40 minutes were mostly dinosaur based content, that way dinosaur presence in the film can be more noticeable, and less people will likely complain about the locust screentime as a result if we have more dinosaur screentime.
@@peterstoric6560 still far better then JP3 and it's a good movie
@@TheJmall88 jp3 didn’t drag the entire franchise into a hole.
It is good to see you back
klayton just wanna say i appreciate you and your content . thank you for keep uploading . i watch ur vid in my darkest time and it helped me alot. thank you
I still need to see the extended cut!
Glad you like movie a little better with the extended version klayton, it fills in a lot of stuff with this version more, also we need to get your thoughts on camp Cretaceous season 5 and what we could expect in upcoming animated Jurassic shows and when we might see the nublar six all together again
glad that you found the directors cut more enjoyable. i personally loved it and overall had a great time while watching the movie when it came it.
We need a R-rated Jurassic movie with Spino in it
Why specifically Spinosaurus?
@@scottb3034
Because despite how much people complain about JP3, the Spinosaurus is still the single best antagonist dinosaur in the franchise.
Wish we got more isla Sorna scene in the Embryonics Administration with Lockwood and the Microceratus ! Would love to see a back story on that !!!!
Man, I was starting to worry that you've decided to leave the channel. Great to see you back my friend! God Bless!
Klayton we haven't seen you since last time but your finally back but yeah I like the Jurassic world Dominion extended version
After having seen the theatrical cut of this latest JW film I have to honestly say I was thinking of how the film made me feel, too. I thought it was a nice action film that was taking its steps in the somewhat right direction. But, I’m also looking forward to seeing the directors cut as well.
My main issue was the final battle, like it was quick and there was no real reason for it, and the theri just spawns in out of nowhere
i swear the atrociraptors are more of like the villain than the giganotosaurus 💀
I love that you hold The Lost World in such high esteem. I’m sure I could see the flaws if I rewatched it today, but when I was a teen watching that movie, I loved it. Had all the toys lol. That one guy came with little compys so you could reenact his death scene lol.
You're back!!!!!!
I agree with you man the extended cut was better than the cinematic version but the whole movie was still too kiddush for me, and the ending goes against so much of what the novels and movies stand for which is the thing I hate about the film but apart from that Dodgson was great and the scenes in Malta and the therizinosaurus part were awesome.
p.s it's great to see a new Klayton video again.
I've seen the deleted scenes but I did not know that it was also edited in a different way, still trying to figure out how to have access to the extended version here in my country. The more I've been rewatching the theatrical version, the more I have mixed feelings, gonna have to see the extended version to know how I really feel about it in the franchise
I'm glad you're back
This film could have been its own trilogy.
I think Fallen Kingdom should've been two films; the first covering the roundup and ending with the boat leaving Nublar. Then the next film goes straight into the Dino auction. The final shot of the Jurassic World trilogy should've been Blue barking over the sleepy California town. What a way to end the series and would've lead perfectly into a new trilogy of movies.
The first of the Dominion trilogy could be about dinosaurs integrating into modern wildlife, being invasive to the natural balance of the world. The second could have covered the underground use of dinosaurs; animal fights, being used as circus entertainment, being put in illegal hunters safari's etc etc. And then the third deals with the locust plot.
BioSyn/Dodgson could have been in the background at the start, pulling some strings, and gradually build up to become the real antagonists of the storyline.
So much potential clunked into one film. Real shame they didn't spread it out.
At the end you said you wanted to do more behind the scenes stuff, A interesting topic is how Ornithocheirus was going to replace the Quetzalcoatlus in dominion. It’s in the Jurassic world visual guide
I agree 100%. The extended cut is a massive improvement from the theatrical release. Which I gave a 7/10 in my youtube review. Which may have been a bit too kind. I'd give the extended version a 8.5 out of 10. I loved it! I think the best direction the series can go is a prequel. Like show hammond gaining acquisition of nublar and sorna, show him building the park and worker village. Show Lockwood and Hammond falling out, show Hurricane Clarissa! Reuse the memoirs from trespasser.
Sorry for this long comment.
Great to have you back Klayton
I glad you enjoyed the extended edition more than the theatrical version
I mean I guess JW3 is somewhat okay. But nothing could beat the original.
The theatrical cut got a 5/10 from me, but the extended cut bumped it up to a 7.5. I really enjoyed it. Shoot, i took my mother with me and even she enjoyed it even though she's not as big a fan as me. Like you, I will only watch the extended cut, but I would suggest you check out FilmSpeak's video on Dominion as he brings up a lot of good points.
Thanks to the extended cut, Dominion makes my top 5 films of the year, coming in at a solid number 4.
I've seen FilmSpeak's video, too. He sums up my personal thoughts on "Dominion" as a whole, and it certainly gave me 'fuel' for my own "Dominion" review.
Very good video , glad to hear your thoughts, i agree with everything but im gonn watch the extended cut soon ,thank you.
welcome back old friend
That classic Jurassic Park, Steven Spielberg's style feeling is just missing, that's why I loved growing up and having nightmares with the original trilogy, lol. Not gonna lie, I kinda had that feeling present in the first two Jurassic World movies, but it was disappointing to not have that at all in Jurassic World Dominion, especially being the last of the trilogy, it did felt like it was aimed for younger audiences, but you know the world nowadays. I don't hate the movie, it was enjoyable in my personal opinion, but they missed the point of the whole franchise, that coexistence between humans and dinosaurs conclusion came out too soon. Btw I do prefer the extended version of this movie as well, it was better indeed!
I hope we get a 3 1/2 hour cut of this movie. With new scenes of where the nitpicks you had, and new scenes of dinosaurs attacking people.
Exactly, when I heard extended edition, I expected new scenes and deleted scenes not just 10 minutes more of footage, this is a joke to be called extended.
@Edward Lee Miller if you mean the actor he's in jail
@Edward Lee Miller They tried to make him like Elon musk villain mode instead of following the book
The extended edition is maybe 20 minutes longer, I got both, I watch the extended version more
@Edward Lee Miller the original actor is locked up, he's a pedo.
Your back Clayton I'm your biggest fan
Took me about 2 months but I binge watched every episode on this channel hahahaha
My gf actually had a very interesting theory about the ending of Dominion, before we saw it in theatres.
She thought that the prologue scene was actually set in the future! And that our hubris of bringing back Dinosaurs does ruin the planet to the point where things go back to primordial roots in a way - by the end of the film.
This theory was also based on the T Rex and Giga interacting at the same time period and other Dinos being in the same place in the Cretaceous prologue.
In retro spect I actually much prefer this wacky ending than the one we got 🤷♂️
I could have watched 3 hours of Battle at Big Rock type stuff all day long. That got my hopes up that the movie would have been much more dark and scary like that short.
Eh battle at big rock was a kids film, literally nobody dies and a dumb little 7 year old manages to shoot arrows at an Allosaurus and it gets scared.
I have an interesting theory/justification on how the inaccuracies featured within The Prologue work for the movie. A lot of the new dinosaurs seen in The Prologue ended up being cloned by BioSyn. BioSyn's whole goal was to study the immune system of the dinosaurs and use that for our own benefit, right? So the dinosaurs featured within The Prologue (that didn't live in North America 65 million years ago) can be species that just evolved over several million years and migrated to North America. BioSyn would then want to study these specific specimens immune system to see how they were capable of surviving several millions of years to when their ancestors went extinct. This can explain the Giga's osteoderms (could be used for display), why the Moros Intrepidus was so small, why the Iguanadon isn't all that accurate, why the Pteranodon and Nasutoceratops look exactly like InGen's etc... This could add to Giga being 'the ultimate apex predator' and making it a 'strong' dinosaur, especially if members of the species were able to evolve and survive all these years. It would also add to the battle it had with the Trex, as it would be a rare occasion for this to happen. This would add to the whole 'world' of Jurassic, making its history not exactly like ours, therefore (from a creative storytelling point), being more interesting. This could be another excuse to see different designs of these dinosaurs in the future. However, these inaccuracies could have been decided on just for the general audience to get a brief understanding of the Cretaceous era. I am very interested on Colin's thought process on making The Prologue and the decisions he made.
Yay Klayton is Back
i feel like the extended cut made up greatly for the terrible shit i paid for back in june
I feel bad that Colin Trevarrow. He worked hard on this, but Hollywood told him to shorten it. Quite upsetting.
Colin Trevarrow couldn't make a good movie if he had all the money and creative freedom int he world and if his life depended on it/.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 I think you have the Great Colin Trevorrow confused with Jim Jam *"Mystery Box"* Abrams and Ruin *"Subvert Expectations"* Johnson.
I'd *forever* take anything and everything from Colin over those two brainless, Disney shill hacks.
But that's just me...I love Colin's work, so there's that.
Dominion was a great motion picture. Theatrical Edition: 8.1/10...while Extended Edition: 9.9/10 (if we had T-Rex and Spinosaurus vs Giganotosaurus instead, then it would've been a perfect 10/10 for me)

I also love watching the JP/JW movies with my mum! She loved how loud the cinema was for the third JW, our seats where vibrating when the dinosaurs roared, she had a lot of fun but also laughed about Owen not dying from hypothermia.
Awesome Vid 🦖
I have some ideas for dominion that if they wanted to do a two parter the first part should focus on dinosaurus in cities and national forests and where it focus that people are being hurt and hunted by these sinos running everywhere and theres a group who are hunting these dinos for profit and to just kill them by protecting their land and homes and thats when own and claire make the same group in dominion that we see with owen showing everyones badge and what they do is capture dinos to take them to another island aka isla sorna whicj will be shown in the last scenes of the movie and while they are going from cities grabbing teradons and quetz flying over big cities and grabbing people for food for their offspring, and also barry and his group going into neighborhoods capturing new raptors who were blues offspring but they look diffrent a blend of the original raptors and lost world coloration, and also stegasaurus creating their territories which are people back yards and attacking homes killing people in the mist of this rampaging dinos, and we then go to national forrests and we nick van owen and ian and we see timbo son where sadly timbo the og actor passed away we have his son who also has been trained by timbo about how to catch predators and being verry patient about it with their group of dino captures and the list to find carnotaurus which last seen was two carnos an adult and juvevinle, and t rex, allosaurus, and and a pack of compys who have grown 1 feet tall and are more dangerous, and we cut some scenes maybe 45 min each of them finding dinos capturing them tranqing them and also with ian nick and timbo son they also fight against the poachers who are killing these creatures for money or for sport, as all this comotion atracts the allos and carnos we see the carnos attack the paochers vilolently as they are in the red woods and owen takes note the carnos can change their body coloration with the back ground (these carnos are from the lost world book) and as our protaganist hear and big growl behind the group of ten men a big allosaurus and a juvenile barry turns fast to tranq it but the allo bites down kills barry and the juvenile attacks the group while we see the adult swallow barry and wee see his left leg torn off hitting the ground everyone runs as timbo son yells out remember the plan b if this happenes everyone follow me as they are using the terrain to their advantage even the poachers joining in and following the protaganist 5 people from our group fall into a crevace and also 6 of the poachers they are in a dark cave and they all loom up we see groups of people running and the allos right behind them we then hear some chrips as the group shines the flash kight in the dark area shiny balls or eyes pop out of rocks behind them a pack of 20 compys run towards tjem we hear gun shots and screams and we the compys biting their legs arma and face leaving behind the bite marks a green and yellowish saliva its reaction to their wounds start verry rapidly as they are running through the cave system ruahing their blood faster each one of them one by one 10 feet away from eachother slowing down getting numb and falling to the ground as they all look back the compys are right there and the compys ruah in they scream a blood curdling scream which fades to black, and lets say we capture them all somewhere near the end we see dodgson and he is checking out his new creations in what looks like a blend of a jungle and swamp but lets make this dodgson book character related and as he looks down we see the ginotosaurus (i dont know if we stay with the design but minimize the dorsal spimes and the big hump on the back) and on the other monitor we see the atrociraptors but they have quills and some feathers and the theri looks the same as in dominion, and we see the 2 t rex but on top of the walls we see captured tyrnats of the island as they roar we see a third t rex but this one has discoloration and some damage on its left leg its the baby from the lost world grown up and we close the scene as the camera pushes if their heads of the area we zoom out we see isla sorna and it blacks out with a voice over of the intercom saying new dinosaurus comming from the mainland in 1 hour.
Thats a cool setup for the 2nd parter i have some ideas but ill wait if anyone wanta me to put more ideas lol
A 3 out of 5?!! Wow Klayton you really hate this film. It's Great.
Finally ,I get to see the last review of this movie that I wanted to see. It’s very interesting seeing from the different points of views you,swrve and beaver had. Swrve enjoyed it a lot more and pointed out all of the good parts of the movie ,he also had some good things to say about the not so great parts.While beaver gave the good points ,but also adds onto the flaws. klayton pointed out most of the problems and critiqued the parts that could’ve been done better. All three talk about the missed potential and the major let downs of the film. Beaver talks about how some dinosaurs and characters didn’t work the way they should’ve. Klayton talks about how the films plot and story don’t fit with what previous movies have done. And Swrve talks about a lot of the smaller details that when put together really hold the movie down.
Welcome Back Klayton!!🦕🦖
I just imagined one instance where in a similar fashion to the Elephants that stomp out villages in revenge, a T-rex or a family of them eat a whole village erasing Generations of history in a single encounter
The extended cut was definitely better than what we got. Also Klayton what did you think of camp cretaceous season 5?
Garbage, they just had to make a lesbian ship to please the fans, plus I noticed the animation was wonky at times and so was the voice acting, the last season was definitely rushed.
@@seriousnesstv7902 yeah it had its mistake I feel like they could have done more with the dinosaurus such as the spino and nothosaurus but they didn't Yaz and Sammy relationship was just weird totally not needed
@@gokuprince88vegeta35 Bro even Brook and Kenji felt weird, it’s realistic for Kenji cuz he’s older and his hormones kicking in, but brook is super young for him….
@@seriousnesstv7902 I'm with Swrve when he said there shouldn't have been any romantic relationships with the campers. Yaz and Sammy at least had some buildup in the earlier seasons but their relationship going from platonic to romantic didn't add anything to the story and should've been done in season 3 after Yaz got the Scorpius antidote for Sammy. Putting them together in season 5 made it feel tacked on to help fill out an episode's run time and check a box instead of something that was deliberately planned and genuine. Kenji and Brook was totally unnecessary and came completely out of left field.
@@yorecf9641 couldn’t agree more, romance was not needed and just added teenage angst
How are you doing Klayton? It's so great to hear from you... ☺️👍
I was _just_ thinking "huh, it's been a while since I've seen Klayton upload a new video, I hope he's doing ok", and then here you are! Good to see you back, man 😎
The extended cut definitely adds some much needed context to the film but it still has some issues. I still give it a 6 or a 7. It’s a real shame that they fumbled so close to finish line with this trilogy.
I only saw the extended version. It was ok.
I think you should do a video on the Camp Cretaceous tie ins. That'd be awesome. I agree with your opinions on the extended cut.
Always a good mindset to have, "I didn't like it but hey, if you liked it, more power to you, I'm happy you did!" King stuff right there
I heard that there going to make a chronology of Jurassic park and I’m very happy and excited that Jurassic park is now getting a chronology just like Star Wars has I’m really excited for them to come

@@joaquinnevarez2509 okay
I cannot believe the creator said Jurassic park should never have been a franchise, so confusing.
And made it not about Dinosaurs but locusts....
if you are talking about trevorrow then A) he isn't the creator B) He didn't say that. He was saying he took a franchise that you couldn't successfully make a long running, continuous franchise and made it that.
And therein lies the issue. Jurassic Park CAN be a franchise but not in the way he is trying it...not if you want to respect the novels/crichton and the first two movies. IMO he did not succeed in making "an unfranchisable IP into a franchise" the movies are mediocre and have too many issues.
The best way to have made it a franchise would have been to do JP and TLW and then make a final film that delves into the Prion disease in the book and a Biosyn/military organization trying to obtain information from the island while holding Wu at gunpoint and then some plot resembling TLW novel ensues (including the inevitable extinction of the dinosaurs from disease/carpet bombing). You could then maybe make a prequel that explored Hammond's youth and the creation of InGen up to JP (ala Hammond's memoirs from Trespasser).
Crichton (the creator) never believed JP was a franchiseable IP and was displeased with the results of TLW and JP///.
This is exactly how I feel! Great video!
Good to have you back! Any plans to review CC s5?
Thanks Klayton, you basically put into words what I've been thinking this whole time!
"durr I'm going to absorb my opinions on things from other people"
You nailed it when you used the word defanged. The dinos are no longer scary or a danger. No fear. I’ve been waiting for Jurassic to be scary again. I have a feeling I’ll be waiting for a good long time......
YES! FINALLY! @KLAYTON FIORITI WE FINALLY SYNCED LOL! My god how I've been waiting for a reviewer/Jurassic Park fan to mention the change of concept from man vs nature (Jurassic Park trilogy until Jurassic World) to man vs man (Fallen Kingdom and Dominion) of the franchise. That is what I've noticed after I watched JW Dominion and I was like "is this how they'll going to go forward to?" and I'm worried that the next Jurassic World film they might going to over the line that we might see for the first time in the franchise on screen besides the plot of kidnapping from Dominion the next thing they might show us would be antagonists would actually kill someone. Good job mentioning that concept in this video and what a great review! 👍👍
Honestly, agree with a lot of what you say. I didn't dislike the movie persay, but I did have issues wih it. Jurassic Park 1 worked so well because it was a condensed cast, with time to breathe between action scenes, and a clear understanding of where the story was going to with the plot. This movie felt far too fast pased, and wide spread, perhaps due to the old guard meeting up with the new guard, which I did enjoy. As on OG JP fan I loved they finally got Alan and Ellie together, especially as they only weren't together in JP3 because if they weren't, Alan wouldn't have had anyone to call for help on the satelite phone. I enjoyed seeing my favorite characters from the 90's come together, and be a part of this. You say Ian Malcom is the pivot point of the movies, and I see why, but he'll always be 2nd place to Alan Grant for me, he is the character that resonates so strongly with the original trilogy. I do agree with your comment about the dinosaurs being de-fanged. This is obvious that out of everyone in the movie, the only min character death was Dojson. Realized at that point that the movies had been watered down to an incredible degree, and tthe dinosaurs wereced to being used foor jump scares and chase scenes. and yes, there were a lot of convenient plot points.
The extended cut is a much better version of the film, but it still couldn’t make up for some of the missed opportunities that I feel should’ve been in the movie.
1) I was really hoping that Dodgson would’ve had an interaction with the legacy characters gloating about how he was part of the plot to take down the original park. Maybe he thought he had them locked up or cornered and he talks about what the Barbasol can is. And just when he thinks he’s about to get away with it, the Dilos come and take him out much like what happened with Hoskins in JW. The acid frees the characters from their holding cell and then commence the final act of trying to escape the facility.
2) they should’ve showcased more of the Giga’s feats instead of having it bitch rexy. It should’ve fought and killed the theri.
3) the atrociraptors should’ve been incorporated into the final act of the film
4) blue should’ve been pitted against one of the atrociraptors
5) rexy should’ve demolished the giga. I mean come on. It’s the “final” film and you have her get bitched and KO
There’s a lot of other stuff I still take issue with. Like Ellie just suddenly out of nowhere knowing Masie’s mom. I wish I would’ve got to see Ellie working at her university and then getting the call about the locusts. And Santos and that other dude should’ve just been one character, Santos and that’s it.
Oh and Dr Wu should’ve died doing something heroic.
I remember in a show called Zoo (netflix) in the last season they had areas that were unable to be inhabited by people because of the (mutated) animals. I was hoping for something like that.
Also a friend of mine recently said she and her daughter were confused because they had not watched Camp Cretaceous. It was a like new MCU if you hadn't seen the Disney+ shows.
Will definitely have to check out the extended version though, thanks👍
I used to watch Zoo a while ago. it was originally adapted from the book as I recall
I watched zoo as well. Not always the best production value but loved the concepts
Finally a upload I thought Jurassic world dominion broke you that bad that you quit Jurassic content
When I watch a movie, my mind and opinion splits into two. On one side it's "DINOSAURS, EXPLOSIONS, FIGHTS, COOL!" and on the other side it's "do the characters actions make sense? Continuity? Character development doesn't reverse? Tone and theme? Etc?"
So no matter which version I watch, at least the "OMG DINOS!" side will always be happy and I will never say no to watching it.
