  • The Jurassic saga has come to a close with Jurassic World: Dominion. While they set things up for an epic conclusion, the convoluted script and story really hurt this final chapter.

    I saw it last night! I was stunned at the storyline. The ending of “Fallen Kingdom” essentially laid-out what the final act would / should / could be. The visuals were A-OK but I’m also tired of the nostalgia nods that seem to be the trend with all franchises (i.e. Ellie Satler removing her sunglasses in awe / Ian Malcolm once again waiving a torch in order to distract giant beast)… The locust plot killed me almost as much as it did in “The Exorcist II: Heretic” What did I learn? Stay away from locusts! They’re a sure way to kill your crops and film franchise! I’m actually heartbroken over this entry as it could have gone-out with a colossal bang. Definitely time to bury for a couple of decades…

      @@gunnerbrickfilmz4231 Agreed! Way too convoluted and complicated where it doesn’t need to be… I’m heartbroken too. It’s funny because it’s also the 40th anniversary of E.T.‘s release and it feels worse for some reason. I think because gone are the days when these movies would come out and inspire / enlighten us so greatly! Instead they utilize the nostalgic originals as tools to grab us… I don’t know but I was very much looking forward to this final instalment and it fell short on all counts. I don’t get it…

      Nah that will be jurassic Universe, or I've been making a fan script of my own which takes place between Lost World & JP3, it would take place around the illegal cloning operation done on Sorna in 1999, if you watch some of Klayton Floriti's videos you can understand the lore of that, but in that spin-off script it foucus on the return of Nick Van Owen from the Lost World along with a few other characters from Lost World & some new ones, there Lewis Dodson is on Sorna to steal dinosaur eggs for Biosin, in short this is a script that salvages plot from Tresspaser & Micheal Criton's Lost World novel, I call the story & script "Trespasser: A Jurassic Park Story". And while some people may not be a fan of some of the characters from Lost World, I promise that it may be pretty solid.

    I think what makes a movie like the first Jurassic Park so good is it's ordinary people in extraordinary situations. It's the same reason Jaws is so great as well. There's a certain level of relatability you can latch onto. As the films have gone on, though, the characters become more extraordinary as do the situations that keep getting ramped up more and more that they're just over the top and ridiculous. I mean, Chris Pratt may as well be James Bond in these movies, particularly the latter two. It's silly.
    The mind set that you have to keep getting bigger and bigger with each film is really a detriment to franchises like this. Especially now when people are desensitized to these big action sequences, anyway. Good, relatable characters will always make up for the lack of spectacle. Obviously you need spectacle in a Jurassic Park/World movie, but I'm of the belief less is more.

      That's not what made it good. Jurassic Park was good because it had ground breaking special effects. Nobody watches that movie to see ordinary characters. The character work isn't that well handled. Jurassic park is the first mindless blockbuster. It doesn't make any sense, it's dumb, but it's filled with awe, and is entertaining. Let's not act like that movie is on the level of jaws, raiders, or ET

  • @KB-bh9hp
    @KB-bh9hp 2 роки тому +64

    I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this, but if they're ever going to do anything with this franchise in the future, I think the best option is to take a darker, more horror centric route. Really lean on the horrors of genetic mutilation when it's taken to the extreme, of the fear of having to run for your life with death chasing you down at every turn. Maybe take the original Jaws approach where the dinosaur's are always there, lurking in the shadows, and you hint and allude to that somehow. Maybe with some clever sound design, and seeing their silhouettes darting behind trees as they get closer to you. Shoot the film like a Halloween film, and the dinosaurs are like Michael Myers. I think a 20-30 min short horror film shot from a first person perspective as you venture around the island at night would be terrifying and thrilling if done the right way.

      @rutgerdejong1660 2 роки тому +2

      I would be all for smaller scaled, more intimate and actually scary settings where you don't know who is going to survive. The genetic mutilation can go away, that's not needed at all. Dinosaurs are scary enough. Look at the kitchen scene in JP. That was actually scary. Future films just need a very different approach. It's all about the setting, screenplay, build up of tension and suspence and most importantly characters that are well written so we care for them and that DON'T HAVE PLOT ARMOR!

That is SO MUCH STORY already. And we got NOTHING of that. Yeah we got 2 montages of 5 minutes in total at the start and ending, thats it.

    Love you man as always and your review is on point. Gotta be honest though it hurts that you compared the climax to Godzilla King of the Monsters. I get if you’re not a fan of Godzilla it might seem like just empty big spectacle but for non casuals we don’t just see him as a big monster but a character himself and on that end there was a lot more done in that versus what they did in Dominion here. 😊

    The original film is iconic, bold, innovative, and awe-inspiring. The kind of film where I wish I could have gone back to '93 to see it in theaters for the first time. Basically every sequel has felt formulaic. Get off the goddamn island already. Everyone has been asking for the same thing for each sequel, make it this grand adventure showcasing dinos in a bunch of interesting locations interesting with normal civilians. I've heard the almost get there with this film, but then they kinda push the dinos to the side for like this strange locus plot or something. It's just like God, get your shit together, you were so close.

    This film should have immediately began describing a scenario that was a cross between Resident Evil, Reign of Fire, and Monsters…with an adequate montage of how the world’s military forces have failed to contain the “dinosaur invasion”.
    That’s the movie. That’s all that matters. PERIOD. Anything else that is going on in the world is absolutely positively irrelevant.
    This is what happens when writers/directors/producers sit around too long in a closed room …drinking their own Kool-Aid.
    A cabin in the woods is safe? Would you have built that cabin on Isla Nublar or Isla Sorna? I think not. Most humans would be in underground bunkers by now!
    Hollywood writers have completely lost the plot at this point. Pun intended. It’s as if they say, “Hey everyone! We have a plan to utterly destroy yet another franchise…call Lorna Dern again!!!”

    I think a movie of people on the biosyn location in a horror themed type of movie would be incredible.

    Just read through the plot summary online. Did anyone else catch that the head of Biosyn is Dodson, the guy who was actually meeting with Nedry in the first movie? It seems a little pointless to bring that back unless you want everyone to just remember how great the original was (in which case, lets special release the original! They did it with Morbius and gave it a second run, they can do it with the original Jurassic Park too and give us an actual good movie).
