Fallen Kingdom is my favorite of the world trilogy i think this is a more interesting story on the film but I still love the original fallen kingdom and I love these how to fix series my favorites so far are this and the first Jurassic World fix video
@@BryanIra305 I’m actually currently working on a Jurassic Park movie called Jurassic Park isolation it has some trailers already out it Releases on July 21St
It seems clear to me that the main issue with this film is that the studio didn’t really know where to go with the franchise story wise. They knew they wanted Dinos on the mainland, but in terms of stories and themes, they had no idea. And that’s the same issue they’ve had SINCE Jurassic Park
Blue joining the other raptors in Isla Sorna (Site B) could've been a real ending of Jurassic Park/World series. However, it never happened. Because the writers didn't care. 😔
Looking forward to Dominion, I put together a brief outline for how it should be improved. The biggest issues for that film are as follows: horrendous, downright insulting writing; terrible performances; too many characters/dinosaurs, with no space for character arcs or memorable action set pieces; misuse of legacy characters; lack of focus on dinosaurs, as was promised at the end of FK; no stakes; rubbery-looking animatronics; and zero thematic substance. My proposed fix for these issues is to shift the focus away from locusts/genetic power being in the wrong hands, and instead focus on the dinosaurs. A simple but effective way to follow up on Maisie’s actions in FK is to have the herbivorous animals eating all of humanity’s crops. You could say that herbivores and Compsognathus are breeding at an unprecedented rate (following up on the BABR baby Nasutoceratops being the omen for humanity’s crisis), and crops aren’t able to grow at a rapid-enough rate to satiate the hungry, growing, and numerous herbivores. There are too few carnivores to aid in population control, nor do they breed as rapidly as the herbivores. Some have tried to poison herbivores using advanced pesticides, but because the herbivores consume staple crops (rice, wheat, etc.) those pesticides have caused people to get critically unwell, whilst not at all affecting the dinosaurs. Transporting carnivores from Sorna has had some success, but it’s not enough to really curb the issue. Because of the efforts by the DPG to list dinosaurs as an endangered species, human can’t hunt the animals to control populations themselves. There’ve been some poaching efforts with support from fringe groups, however, poachers were immediately punished. To make the issue of dinosaur over-breeding even more alarming, Compsognathus have become common pests, hiding in attics, trash cans, and invading hospitals where several were seen consuming a newborn. Biosyn proposed resurrecting a Giganotosaurus with a hyper-aggressive gene to single-handedly eradicate the dinosaur problem. Taking what was learned from the Indoraptor/the Mantah Corp island experiments, the Giganotosaurus could be controlled. This idea receives government funding in the billions, potentially resolving the dinosaur catastrophe. This has prompted two distinct factions of people; those who are for and those who are against. Those for (government bodies, industries, militaries, the right wing, etc.) see this as a quick fix. Groups against, like Claire and the DPG suggest Biosyn could better use their resources to increase the rate of growth for crops, managing to feed both the dinosaurs and also resolve world hunger (Biosyn’s argument would be that it isn’t profitable, being consistent with the anti-capitalist themes in the Jurassic series so far). The new giant carnivore would eventually prove Claire right. In a test on US soil, the Giganotosaurus was too successful, killing everything in its wake, including people. Thus ensues the conflict. While similar to Jurassic World, the main difference is in how Wu responds to the violent nature of the Giganotosaurus. The rage associated with the Indominus was because of a genetic cocktail, whereas here, the Giganotosaurus was deliberately sequenced with a hyper-aggressive gene. The onus is then on Wu rather than brushing it off as a side effect. Wu could redeem himself by following Claire’s advice and generating more crops to make both humans and the dinosaurs happy. I’ve yet to figure out the finer details as this is only an outline, but I think this is consistent with the work that has come before as well as the effort you’ve put in. I’d love to know what you think.
This is a very unique and interesting idea! My one big piece of input would be the ending. I’d personally have it end on a more somber note. Dinosaurs on the mainland has been set up as a worst-case scenario since the first Jurassic Park novel. I think the ending should reflect that. One of the many, _many_ things I hate about Dominion is how it ends on what might as well be the power of friendship winning out. Building off of your idea for the Giganotosaurus, I’d draw more of a parallel to the cane toads in Australia: introduced to control another invasive species, but only causing even more damage. With such a ravenous appetite the Giganotosaurus forgoes other dinosaurs in favor of much easier prey like cattle, causing even more damage to an already hurting rural population. Drawing even more parallels to real life cases of invasive species, Claire’s sympathies for the dinosaurs could lean heavily on how the hippos in Columbia are treated. Despite the large ecological disturbances they’re causing, their charismatic appearance and economic benefits as a draw for tourists leads some to want to protect them. The main thesis of a Dominion rewrite, for me at least, should be how there are no heroes. Everyone is a victim; the people, the dinosaurs, the environment. All are made to suffer as a result of corporate greed and human arrogance.
I have very much considered that. I think there would be some plot and/or conceptual overlap with my How to Fix Fallen Kingdom, but I would definitely love to explore the aftermath of my version, with Owen still on the island and the raptor pack one member down.

However, it never happened.
Cool fix! Also, one of the best ways to fix the next movie: Jurassic World: Dominion is to just set the movie in a post-apocalyptic world where humans end up on the edge of extinction and the Dinosaurs are taking over the planet. A deadly virus known as the DX Virus is causing all of this mess.

Thank you so much! In a dream world, I’d have enough time to devote myself both to this channel and to screenwriting these ideas. It’s one thing to essentially summarize these stories for an hour long video, but as I’m doing it, I’m imagining exact pieces of dialogue and how I’d want them delivered, I’m picturing the framing and pace of each scene, and in my mind’s eye I’m typing out all the action in an actual script. I drop a lot of exposition in these stories that I would prefer to show instead of tell (specifically the interpersonal relationships) but the format makes showing impossible. But I do appreciate when fellow fans react, positively, negatively, neutrally, to my work. I’m out to entertain, after all!
Love to read this. I’m better at the big picture when creating a story. I have at least 4 ideas for alternate Jurassic movies, as well as variations on the existing movies, but no extensive plot details. All that said, I’m excited to hear how you’d change Dominion.
The new movies don't understand what made the originals great. In the first film the Dinosaurs acted like animals. A good example of this is when the T-rex attacks the jeep. it flips the vehicle over and bites the tires. In its mind it is flipping over its armoured pray to expose its fleshy belly. And when it doesnt find food it gets annoyed and pushes the car off of the cliff. There's complexity to its behaviour. We see that it's dangerous and unfamilar with human vehicles and that it has emotions because it gets frustrated. In the more recent movies its just "run from the giant murdersaurus and oh no its got optic camouflage now." Another important part of jurassic park movies are the philosophical debates. The first film had ones centered on genetic engineering and control in complex systems and in lost world the debate is between hunters and gatherers and what drives each party. In the new films its, "dinosaurs are magical and we gotta save them guys."
@@Luokeyo I have in fact considered doing that. If I did, I think I would have to do one season at a time, as I would relish the opportunity to critique each one before delivering a fix. It’s a bridge that will need to be crossed in a little while!
The Indoraptor was such an overrated creature. I don't get why it's so beloved. I expected the "living weapon unlike anything ever seen" that Hoskins hinted at in JW. And that's not what we got.
well per tradition at this point, here are my thoughts: 1. while cool. the opening for the film has some of the biggest leaps in logic. for 1 how could the people in the helicopter be freaking out over the Rex taking it down but the kaiju sized mosasaur not due jack squat when it clamped down. (though I do like what you did with it. I'm imagining the reveal with the Rex being like Goji -1) 2. I believe that the lore states that Isla Sorna was stripped of dinosaurs for JW right? 3. bringing in Tim feels a bit fanfictiony and I could see a lot of people poking that idea. but I do find this inclusion the most believable than I've seen to incorporate him and his sister in the past. 4. a man-made (or controllable) volcanic eruption by a quick google search tells is "laughably impossible." 5. the Irex sibling being eaten is the same as the 6 raptors being killed by the Big One in JP, it's exposition solely existing to demonstrate the danger of the living animal in question. bringing in the sibling when the last film made no prerequisite of the other creature would make the sequel feel like the Maisie plot twist all over again and thus leaving the indoraptor the "unused Chekhov's gun." 6. When was it established Barry could fly? Wheatly just feels unnecessary, and you kind of lost the heartless mad scientist of Wu in this rewrite. 7. knowing Grant's character in JP3 this would NOT be reasonable for his character. his inclusion was not necessary. 8. and the whole dinosaurs escaping to the mainland feel like you kinda brushed it in by the end since that was this films whole point. Overall I MUCH prefer most of this over the finalized film. but like most monsterverse fan continuations I feel it goes a bit overboard in nostalgia that doesn't make much sense when considering how many rewrites and other things may come up. while trying to make the films feel more connected should be a no brainer, I feel many of the dinosaur scenes in this rewrite lacked substance in terms of plot progression or character building aside from a handful of scenes with Blue, Toro, and Irex 2. and for Mattel, while i'm greatly appreciative of their line for being the most diverse, articulated, and screen accurate line of JP toys, I must say, their cheapness in quality and paint job and especially quality control is ABSOLUTELY PITIFUL I've had over A DOZEN figures with some kind of factory error. Some with not enough glue or paint, others with too much, warped, scratched or cracked straight out of the box, ill-assembled hadrosaur jaws, misprinted eyes or patterns, and even the time I didn't even get half my order of the open shirt Malcolm (one was fine, the other I got the box but not the figure). Ironically, with Hasbro I had none of these quality control errors. do I say they should get back the license? aside from re-releasing the vintage stuff. not really but all the praise Mattel has gotten I believe isn't as warranted.
Tim gaining control of InGen makes sense to me, he’s Hammond’s only grandson, after all. Nepotism is everywhere. Also, Grant’s entire character arc in Jurassic Park 3 is shifting from seeing the dinosaurs as beautiful animals rather than “theme park monsters.” That’s the point of the “Billy was right” scene. It’s not too enormous of a stretch to think Tim could convince him to follow his desire to study the live animals.
Hey man, good to see you’re still here lol. 1. Yes, it does strain credulity but I can also buy that the Mosasaurus’ jaws simply bit so hard that the rope ladder snapped easily from the chopper, allowing the aircraft to escape without harm. Honestly I felt the most unbelievable part of my story was the mosasaur causing the ship to veer off course lol 2. I believe BioSyn did that following Fallen Kingdom, because otherwise why did Jurassic World only have one Rex when it should have had at least two more? In any case, Sorna being pillaged isn’t addressed on screen until a passing line in Dominion so I think retconning it for the purposes of this story was appropriate. 3. Thanks! As someone already pointed out, nepotism is literally everywhere, and Masrani verbalizes that Hammond entrusted the dream of Jurassic Park to him. So in conceiving a way to bring back Tim that would make some sense, it occurred to me that Masrani, being so idealistic and starry-eyed, would install Hammond’s literal legacy as the head of InGen. There was a certain poetry to it that I couldn’t resist once I thought of it. 4. Yes! You’re absolutely correct. However, I also thought it was mad that both Hammond and especially Masrani would build on an island that could potentially suffer such a fate. With all the varied resources at his disposal, he couldn’t tell that the volcano was going to come alive within a decade of opening his park? That sort of thing can be predicted. It’s crazy to think that regardless of what the Indominus did, Jurassic World would have fallen eventually because no one checked to make sure the volcano was truly dormant. So I figured I’d do some crazy engineering mumbo jumbo and draw from established lore concerning the geothermal power to explain why suddenly the volcano came to life. It is impossible. But so is bringing back dinosaurs with blood taken from mosquitoes. 5. I can’t agree here. The Indominus was terrifying without having to psych out the audience. It would have been an absolutely stunning moment if JW had pulled a “Meg” and trotted out another Indominus at a key moment, having hinted at it in the first few seconds of the movie. I kept expecting it to materialize and it never did. That’s the definition of an unfired Chekov’s gun. 6. When was it established Barry couldn’t fly? There’s no backstory I’m aware of that prevents the character from having that skill. Though I don’t say anything to set that up beforehand, in an actual script I would probably drop a hint about it in passing earlier, maybe with Barry passing by a chopper pilot on the deck of the Arcadia and asking how the aircraft handled. I needed someone to take the operation over and bring the dinosaurs to the mainland after Mills’ death, and Wheatley was that guy. I do strip Wu down in this story. Him being a villain or even a mad scientist never sat right with me anyway. His turn in Dominion wasn’t convincing because he just kind of comes off as a whiny, underfoot character in Fallen Kingdom. I wanted to humanize him. He’s still unethical here, keeping the Indominus 2 alive when he should have euthanized it, and I never fully commit to him being a “good” character. He’s grieving for the loss of Indominus at the end, but by and large grief is for the living: he’s focused on how it’s affected *him* rather than on how the Indominus 2 was in so much pain that it chose death over existence when presented the option. 7. Grant seems to come around to Billy’s way of thinking by the end of JP3. “My God, I’d forgotten.” His interest in the raptors communications. His talk on the boat with Eric followed immediately by marveling at the dinosaurs on the bank. It does seem that Grant’s arc is reversing his opinion that the animals are “nothing more than theme park monsters.” Even a cut line in the helicopter has him admitting he’d like to come back. With his relationship with Ellie a nonstarter and the world still turning its back on paleontology after the San Diego incident and, I imagine, even more so in the wake of Jurassic World’s opening, is it any wonder Grant would choose to return to Sorna if he could do his work safely? I also played with the idea of Sarah Harding being there with him but I thought it would just be too much. 8. Sure did. It took me forever to figure out a good way to make it happen and what I settled on was this. In Fallen Kingdom, only like forty dinosaurs actually escape and they all do so from the same place. The idea that now the entire world is overrun is kind of silly. I envision instead that Wheatley’s fleet, carrying substantially more dinosaurs, disseminate their bounty across the world by selling off their cargo at multiple ports. I’m glad you found some enjoyment from my retelling though! As always you bring up some great points and I hope I’ve successfully explained why I made some of the choices that weren’t to your liking😅
Thank you! I very nearly did do that! But at the last second I changed it to the JP3 raptors instead because I felt that Blue would tonally fit in better with them than with the JP/TLW ones. :)
I'm really disappointed that Tim and Lex Murphy (John Hammond's grandchildren), and other children, teenagers as adults never returned in Jurassic Park/World movies anymore (from Jurassic Park 1, Lost World, and Jurassic Park III).😔 And neither did Zach and Gray. Maisie Lockwood is the only kid to appear in the last 2 Jurassic World movies (between Fallen Kingdom and Dominion) for some reason. No one else.
Yes, the movie doesn’t bring that up but even if it had, it’s an illogical conclusion to make. Masrani Global was not just a genetics company and it was not just a theme park company. It was in telecommunications, oil, engineering, aerospace technologies and way more. The idea that this one failed venture would collapse the entire company is just not believable. According to tie in sources, Masrani Global had to pay out 800 million as a result of the Jurassic World incident, hardly enough to destroy a multi-billion dollar corporation.
I agree. I like trilogies and if there’s one thing the Jurassic World movies do better than the JP trilogy, it’s keeping plot threads open to pick up. I definitely wanted to play with that while also giving definitive arcs for these characters.
If you are referring to my story, thank you greatly! And I always use the same continuity as the previous film and don’t use my own stories’ continuity when I do these videos, so Charlie and Echo are dead. I am interested in revisiting my Jurassic World continuity because leaving Blue with two of her siblings and Owen choosing to stay on the island does seem like an exciting story to tell!
No offense taken! It’s impossible to please everybody! I just do my best to tell what I consider to be a more engaging and interesting story, and if it lands flat for some people, that’s okay. I’m just some nerd with an imagination lol
This is a horriblely underated movie Its more then just a action packed seqil to jurassic world This was the movie that introduced The future of the Jurassic franchise By having the dinosaurs now starting to spread all over the world And if your saying thats all this movie is Your wrong Its also a countinouation of the Hybrid storyline The start of the possibility of humans using genetic power for other purposes other than cloning dinosaurs And was what truly kick started the franchise to what it is today We wouldn't have The metal toyline Jurassic world evolution 1 and 2 Camp cretaceous Chaos theory Dinotracker The hatching Or such a large amount of fans Dose it have problems Of course it dose The comedy is terrible But then again its not supposed to be a comedy I found it pointless to have the first Owen and Claire interaction to be that they broke up after jurassic world That story didn't go anywhere And i hate the movies constantly using rexy for promo shots But there is so much they get right with this movie that saves it for me Its definitely the darkness jurassic movie so far And the franchise is lacking that more Michel critten style This movie has the best opening of any jurassic film It also has the saddest scene in the form of the Brachiosaurus death I love most of the new species it introduces Even though the Carnotaurus scene was underused i still love how the mannage to include it into the films And it has a badass design I loved the Stygimoloch Whether or not you consider it its own genus or not It was still a cool dinosaur they introduced I know the Sinoceratops design gets alot of hate But as a creature design lover I love it Pluss would you raver have it be a Sinoceratops or a pachyrhinosaurus Because we all know pachyrhinosaurus didn't have a horn As for the Baryonyx I dont like its design and i dont like the scene it was in But at least we finally get to see it in the flesh And the Allosaurus I dont like the design But it was a juvenile And the adult Allosaurus introduced in battle at big rock was gold and ended up being my absolute favourite dinosaurs design in the franchise besides parasaurolophus lux Most the complaints you make dont make sence The reason that they needed to go get the indominus rex sample was explained in camp cretaceous If they restarted from scratch it could have taken them years to complete the indoraptor And pluss Its not as simple as just combining the indominus rex DNA with Velociraptor and abelisaurus It needs to have the right technically And after the fall of jurassic world Dr wu had his DNA samples at the end of Jurassic world he taken away from him after he was denounced from his science career It wasn't Benjamin cloning humans that was what led to him and Hammond falling apart Because in the context of the movie Maisie is only 11 years old not 9 And was created in 2007 And john Hammond died in 1997 shortly after the lost world So yah Collen trevarow siad that it was Benjamin that was discussing cloning humans that drove them apart And john Hammond saw that creating dinosaurs was enough But cloning humans was unholy And if you wondering why didn't Benjamin do anything about ingen during the lost world Its because john had forbidden him to get involved with anything to do with jurassic park or their cloning technology And as to why elis dialogue claimed that masies cloning is what led to their break up Imagine if it world history said this Why do you think hitler was to mad Yah Hitler was a dictator He wanted to control Europe And he had the army He started a war He became history And from what eli said He didn't explicitly say it was maisie being a clone that drove them apart But it was cloning humans that drove them apart And as for why Claire is a they way she is in this movie There was one scene that made her change in jurassic world It was the dying Apatosaurus that made her realise that the dinosaurs arnt just profit But actual living breathing animals And as to why she wasn't suede She probably was But since jurassic world was a million possibly billion dollar park She could have had more then enough money to pay off for visitor injuries or employment deaths And destruction of property Pluss extra for the fact that world thought the camp cretaceous campers died on isla nublar And she used the money that was left to fund the Dinosaur Procetction group And the indoraptor isn't just a Hybrid between a velociraptor and indominus rex But also abelisaurus and German shepherd Pluss its genetic modifications to make it smaller and more agile then the indominus And as to why it didn't just rip maisie to shreads straight away Theres to possible theorys 1 is that the indoraptor imprinted on her and was only chasing after her to try and show its love Or the other one is that the indoraptor was just toying with her Because it was toying with Wheatley You have to actually pay attention to what your watching in order to understand Also im sick of people not taking the military dinosaur concept seriously Because think of it Thousands of solders die in war And they dont deserve it But why have human solders that are limated When you can have an army of well traind dinosaurs that are in endless numbers to kill the enemy You could give them bullet proof skin Like with the indoraptor Show them their targets like with the laser Now i dont get why it had to be a gun laser But my point still stands It is not a pointless or stupid concept Aspescaly when you consider the fact that we are sacrificing human lives for our own goles Now before you say anything about how using dinosaurs is animal abuse I am agenst using inocent animals in war But thats why you rout for the heros And pluss the indoraptor is no ordinary dinosaur Its a mindless killer And if this was the real world Do you really think they would put animal lives before humans Not to mention genetically modified animals where if you run out you can create an endless amount with no limits
I’m calling it now.. this channel will explode and be one of the biggest Jurassic tube channels if you keep up this good work

We see that it's dangerous and unfamilar with human vehicles and that it has emotions because it gets frustrated.
In the more recent movies its just "run from the giant murdersaurus and oh no its got optic camouflage now."
Another important part of jurassic park movies are the philosophical debates. The first film had ones centered on genetic engineering and control in complex systems and in lost world the debate is between hunters and gatherers and what drives each party. In the new films its, "dinosaurs are magical and we gotta save them guys."
Ok, its actually really cool to see a reference to Camp Cretaceous in a movie
I had to sneak it in, I love when the franchise is confident enough to reference other aspects of itself.
@@BryanIra305 Are you ever planning on rewriting Camp Cretaceous? I feel like you would have a field day with season 4 and 5.
@@Luokeyo I have in fact considered doing that. If I did, I think I would have to do one season at a time, as I would relish the opportunity to critique each one before delivering a fix. It’s a bridge that will need to be crossed in a little while!
I would have enjoyed watching your version of this film. Such a shame good writers are in such short supply in Hollywood these days.
Thank you so much!
Bravo!!! Fantastic breakdown and rewrite! 🎉
Thank you kindly!
The Indoraptor was such an overrated creature. I don't get why it's so beloved. I expected the "living weapon unlike anything ever seen" that Hoskins hinted at in JW. And that's not what we got.
Yeah but it could have been used better it only has like 5 minutes of screen time and it felt like it was shoed in at the last minute
well per tradition at this point, here are my thoughts:
1. while cool. the opening for the film has some of the biggest leaps in logic. for 1 how could the people in the helicopter be freaking out over the Rex taking it down but the kaiju sized mosasaur not due jack squat when it clamped down. (though I do like what you did with it. I'm imagining the reveal with the Rex being like Goji -1)
2. I believe that the lore states that Isla Sorna was stripped of dinosaurs for JW right?
3. bringing in Tim feels a bit fanfictiony and I could see a lot of people poking that idea. but I do find this inclusion the most believable than I've seen to incorporate him and his sister in the past.
4. a man-made (or controllable) volcanic eruption by a quick google search tells is "laughably impossible."
5. the Irex sibling being eaten is the same as the 6 raptors being killed by the Big One in JP, it's exposition solely existing to demonstrate the danger of the living animal in question. bringing in the sibling when the last film made no prerequisite of the other creature would make the sequel feel like the Maisie plot twist all over again and thus leaving the indoraptor the "unused Chekhov's gun."
6. When was it established Barry could fly? Wheatly just feels unnecessary, and you kind of lost the heartless mad scientist of Wu in this rewrite.
7. knowing Grant's character in JP3 this would NOT be reasonable for his character. his inclusion was not necessary.
8. and the whole dinosaurs escaping to the mainland feel like you kinda brushed it in by the end since that was this films whole point.
Overall I MUCH prefer most of this over the finalized film. but like most monsterverse fan continuations I feel it goes a bit overboard in nostalgia that doesn't make much sense when considering how many rewrites and other things may come up. while trying to make the films feel more connected should be a no brainer, I feel many of the dinosaur scenes in this rewrite lacked substance in terms of plot progression or character building aside from a handful of scenes with Blue, Toro, and Irex 2.
and for Mattel, while i'm greatly appreciative of their line for being the most diverse, articulated, and screen accurate line of JP toys, I must say, their cheapness in quality and paint job and especially quality control is ABSOLUTELY PITIFUL I've had over A DOZEN figures with some kind of factory error. Some with not enough glue or paint, others with too much, warped, scratched or cracked straight out of the box, ill-assembled hadrosaur jaws, misprinted eyes or patterns, and even the time I didn't even get half my order of the open shirt Malcolm (one was fine, the other I got the box but not the figure).
Ironically, with Hasbro I had none of these quality control errors. do I say they should get back the license? aside from re-releasing the vintage stuff. not really but all the praise Mattel has gotten I believe isn't as warranted.
Well, in the case of Isla Sorna's fate, that's never mentioned in the movies, so external sources like websites can be ignored.
Tim gaining control of InGen makes sense to me, he’s Hammond’s only grandson, after all. Nepotism is everywhere. Also, Grant’s entire character arc in Jurassic Park 3 is shifting from seeing the dinosaurs as beautiful animals rather than “theme park monsters.” That’s the point of the “Billy was right” scene. It’s not too enormous of a stretch to think Tim could convince him to follow his desire to study the live animals.
@@EvangelOfficial is that really Grant's arc in the film? something of which was just like maybe 3 lines?
@@TrexTamer I never said it was a good movie 😂 but yes, that was the intention.
Hey man, good to see you’re still here lol.
1. Yes, it does strain credulity but I can also buy that the Mosasaurus’ jaws simply bit so hard that the rope ladder snapped easily from the chopper, allowing the aircraft to escape without harm. Honestly I felt the most unbelievable part of my story was the mosasaur causing the ship to veer off course lol
2. I believe BioSyn did that following Fallen Kingdom, because otherwise why did Jurassic World only have one Rex when it should have had at least two more? In any case, Sorna being pillaged isn’t addressed on screen until a passing line in Dominion so I think retconning it for the purposes of this story was appropriate.
3. Thanks! As someone already pointed out, nepotism is literally everywhere, and Masrani verbalizes that Hammond entrusted the dream of Jurassic Park to him. So in conceiving a way to bring back Tim that would make some sense, it occurred to me that Masrani, being so idealistic and starry-eyed, would install Hammond’s literal legacy as the head of InGen. There was a certain poetry to it that I couldn’t resist once I thought of it.
4. Yes! You’re absolutely correct. However, I also thought it was mad that both Hammond and especially Masrani would build on an island that could potentially suffer such a fate. With all the varied resources at his disposal, he couldn’t tell that the volcano was going to come alive within a decade of opening his park? That sort of thing can be predicted. It’s crazy to think that regardless of what the Indominus did, Jurassic World would have fallen eventually because no one checked to make sure the volcano was truly dormant. So I figured I’d do some crazy engineering mumbo jumbo and draw from established lore concerning the geothermal power to explain why suddenly the volcano came to life. It is impossible. But so is bringing back dinosaurs with blood taken from mosquitoes.
5. I can’t agree here. The Indominus was terrifying without having to psych out the audience. It would have been an absolutely stunning moment if JW had pulled a “Meg” and trotted out another Indominus at a key moment, having hinted at it in the first few seconds of the movie. I kept expecting it to materialize and it never did. That’s the definition of an unfired Chekov’s gun.
6. When was it established Barry couldn’t fly? There’s no backstory I’m aware of that prevents the character from having that skill. Though I don’t say anything to set that up beforehand, in an actual script I would probably drop a hint about it in passing earlier, maybe with Barry passing by a chopper pilot on the deck of the Arcadia and asking how the aircraft handled.
I needed someone to take the operation over and bring the dinosaurs to the mainland after Mills’ death, and Wheatley was that guy.
I do strip Wu down in this story. Him being a villain or even a mad scientist never sat right with me anyway. His turn in Dominion wasn’t convincing because he just kind of comes off as a whiny, underfoot character in Fallen Kingdom. I wanted to humanize him. He’s still unethical here, keeping the Indominus 2 alive when he should have euthanized it, and I never fully commit to him being a “good” character. He’s grieving for the loss of Indominus at the end, but by and large grief is for the living: he’s focused on how it’s affected *him* rather than on how the Indominus 2 was in so much pain that it chose death over existence when presented the option.
7. Grant seems to come around to Billy’s way of thinking by the end of JP3. “My God, I’d forgotten.” His interest in the raptors communications. His talk on the boat with Eric followed immediately by marveling at the dinosaurs on the bank. It does seem that Grant’s arc is reversing his opinion that the animals are “nothing more than theme park monsters.” Even a cut line in the helicopter has him admitting he’d like to come back. With his relationship with Ellie a nonstarter and the world still turning its back on paleontology after the San Diego incident and, I imagine, even more so in the wake of Jurassic World’s opening, is it any wonder Grant would choose to return to Sorna if he could do his work safely? I also played with the idea of Sarah Harding being there with him but I thought it would just be too much.
8. Sure did. It took me forever to figure out a good way to make it happen and what I settled on was this. In Fallen Kingdom, only like forty dinosaurs actually escape and they all do so from the same place. The idea that now the entire world is overrun is kind of silly. I envision instead that Wheatley’s fleet, carrying substantially more dinosaurs, disseminate their bounty across the world by selling off their cargo at multiple ports.
I’m glad you found some enjoyment from my retelling though! As always you bring up some great points and I hope I’ve successfully explained why I made some of the choices that weren’t to your liking😅
1:00:22
I wish it the lost world raptors for the fallen kingdom rewrite, but, hey, good rewrite nonetheless.
Thank you! I very nearly did do that! But at the last second I changed it to the JP3 raptors instead because I felt that Blue would tonally fit in better with them than with the JP/TLW ones. :)
This is what should've happened in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
😁
I'm really disappointed that Tim and Lex Murphy (John Hammond's grandchildren), and other children, teenagers as adults never returned in Jurassic Park/World movies anymore (from Jurassic Park 1, Lost World, and Jurassic Park III).😔
And neither did Zach and Gray.
Maisie Lockwood is the only kid to appear in the last 2 Jurassic World movies (between Fallen Kingdom and Dominion) for some reason. No one else.
It’s always really bummed me out.
I prefer the real ending of your "fix story".
nice take
Thank you!
Masrani Global is bankrupt.
Which the movie doesn’t bring up.
Yes, the movie doesn’t bring that up but even if it had, it’s an illogical conclusion to make. Masrani Global was not just a genetics company and it was not just a theme park company. It was in telecommunications, oil, engineering, aerospace technologies and way more. The idea that this one failed venture would collapse the entire company is just not believable. According to tie in sources, Masrani Global had to pay out 800 million as a result of the Jurassic World incident, hardly enough to destroy a multi-billion dollar corporation.
I thought the sisters were alive in your other rewrite? 52:29
I don't know.... setting up for a 3rd film isn't necessarily a bad thing.... it actually would've been a good thing if the last film was any good.
I agree. I like trilogies and if there’s one thing the Jurassic World movies do better than the JP trilogy, it’s keeping plot threads open to pick up. I definitely wanted to play with that while also giving definitive arcs for these characters.
It’s…..okay. If okay means amazing
Also what about Charlie and echo
You think fallen kingdom is an amazing film?
If you are referring to my story, thank you greatly! And I always use the same continuity as the previous film and don’t use my own stories’ continuity when I do these videos, so Charlie and Echo are dead. I am interested in revisiting my Jurassic World continuity because leaving Blue with two of her siblings and Owen choosing to stay on the island does seem like an exciting story to tell!
@@BryanIra305 oh, that makes sense now. And yes, I was referring to your film
no offence but this alternate take is a bit overboard.
No offense taken! It’s impossible to please everybody! I just do my best to tell what I consider to be a more engaging and interesting story, and if it lands flat for some people, that’s okay. I’m just some nerd with an imagination lol
@@BryanIra305 glad you took it well.
my favourite film is JWFK but i'm fine if you personally don't like it.
This is a horriblely underated movie
Its more then just a action packed seqil to jurassic world
This was the movie that introduced
The future of the Jurassic franchise
By having the dinosaurs now starting to spread all over the world
And if your saying thats all this movie is
Your wrong
Its also a countinouation of the Hybrid storyline
The start of the possibility of humans using genetic power for other purposes other than cloning dinosaurs
And was what truly kick started the franchise to what it is today
We wouldn't have
The metal toyline
Jurassic world evolution 1 and 2
Camp cretaceous
Chaos theory
Dinotracker
The hatching
Or such a large amount of fans
Dose it have problems
Of course it dose
The comedy is terrible
But then again its not supposed to be a comedy
I found it pointless to have the first Owen and Claire interaction to be that they broke up after jurassic world
That story didn't go anywhere
And i hate the movies constantly using rexy for promo shots
But there is so much they get right with this movie that saves it for me
Its definitely the darkness jurassic movie so far
And the franchise is lacking that more Michel critten style
This movie has the best opening of any jurassic film
It also has the saddest scene in the form of the Brachiosaurus death
I love most of the new species it introduces
Even though the Carnotaurus scene was underused i still love how the mannage to include it into the films
And it has a badass design
I loved the Stygimoloch
Whether or not you consider it its own genus or not
It was still a cool dinosaur they introduced
I know the Sinoceratops design gets alot of hate
But as a creature design lover
I love it
Pluss would you raver have it be a Sinoceratops or a pachyrhinosaurus
Because we all know pachyrhinosaurus didn't have a horn
As for the Baryonyx
I dont like its design and i dont like the scene it was in
But at least we finally get to see it in the flesh
And the Allosaurus
I dont like the design
But it was a juvenile
And the adult Allosaurus introduced in battle at big rock was gold and ended up being my absolute favourite dinosaurs design in the franchise besides parasaurolophus lux
Most the complaints you make dont make sence
The reason that they needed to go get the indominus rex sample was explained in camp cretaceous
If they restarted from scratch it could have taken them years to complete the indoraptor
And pluss
Its not as simple as just combining the indominus rex DNA with Velociraptor and abelisaurus
It needs to have the right technically
And after the fall of jurassic world
Dr wu had his DNA samples at the end of Jurassic world he taken away from him after he was denounced from his science career
It wasn't Benjamin cloning humans that was what led to him and Hammond falling apart
Because in the context of the movie
Maisie is only 11 years old not 9
And was created in 2007
And john Hammond died in 1997 shortly after the lost world
So yah
Collen trevarow siad that it was Benjamin that was discussing cloning humans that drove them apart
And john Hammond saw that creating dinosaurs was enough
But cloning humans was unholy
And if you wondering why didn't Benjamin do anything about ingen during the lost world
Its because john had forbidden him to get involved with anything to do with jurassic park or their cloning technology
And as to why elis dialogue claimed that masies cloning is what led to their break up
Imagine if it world history said this
Why do you think hitler was to mad
Yah
Hitler was a dictator
He wanted to control Europe
And he had the army
He started a war
He became history
And from what eli said
He didn't explicitly say it was maisie being a clone that drove them apart
But it was cloning humans that drove them apart
And as for why Claire is a they way she is in this movie
There was one scene that made her change in jurassic world
It was the dying Apatosaurus that made her realise that the dinosaurs arnt just profit
But actual living breathing animals
And as to why she wasn't suede
She probably was
But since jurassic world was a million possibly billion dollar park
She could have had more then enough money to pay off for visitor injuries or employment deaths
And destruction of property
Pluss extra for the fact that world thought the camp cretaceous campers died on isla nublar
And she used the money that was left to fund the Dinosaur Procetction group
And the indoraptor isn't just a Hybrid between a velociraptor and indominus rex
But also abelisaurus and German shepherd
Pluss its genetic modifications to make it smaller and more agile then the indominus
And as to why it didn't just rip maisie to shreads straight away
Theres to possible theorys
1 is that the indoraptor imprinted on her and was only chasing after her to try and show its love
Or the other one is that the indoraptor was just toying with her
Because it was toying with Wheatley
You have to actually pay attention to what your watching in order to understand
Also im sick of people not taking the military dinosaur concept seriously
Because think of it
Thousands of solders die in war
And they dont deserve it
But why have human solders that are limated
When you can have an army of well traind dinosaurs that are in endless numbers to kill the enemy
You could give them bullet proof skin
Like with the indoraptor
Show them their targets like with the laser
Now i dont get why it had to be a gun laser
But my point still stands
It is not a pointless or stupid concept
Aspescaly when you consider the fact that we are sacrificing human lives for our own goles
Now before you say anything about how using dinosaurs is animal abuse
I am agenst using inocent animals in war
But thats why you rout for the heros
And pluss the indoraptor is no ordinary dinosaur
Its a mindless killer
And if this was the real world
Do you really think they would put animal lives before humans
Not to mention genetically modified animals where if you run out you can create an endless amount with no limits
If you can't spell, punctuate, or form a paragraph, people are going to have a hard time understanding what you're trying to say.
Bro just wrote a whole Michael crichton novel
@@behindthescenesphotos5133 bro
I dont care
You still understand
So why dose it matter
