Actually the statement "You are the only you that ever was," is absolutely correct. It doesn't matter if she is a clone or an identical twin, her experiences have made her a unique person with her own personality.
@@sonadowfangirl30869, the implication is that because she is a "clone" she is identical to her mother, which is why I point out that "identical" twins/triplets/etc. (scientifically referred to as clone twins/triplets/etc.) are not really identical.
Alan Grant Explained In Jurassic Park 1 that some Frogs can change sex from male to female and so that's why all the dinos can breed. People don't pay attention these days to film
To answer the dinosaur sex/gender issue you guys had in the beginning- some animals IRL are all born the same gender and then switch gender through social pressure as they age. This is usually done via pheromones- males give off distinctive pheromones and when a group of females do not detect these pheromones for a certain period of time, one of the females will convert to a male to ensure the females can breed. Some species, like bees and ants, can do this by feeding larvae specific foods laced with specific chemicals. Fish, amphibians, and insects all have species who do this, and in the first movie, Grant hypothesized that since the dinosaurs DNA were spliced with some of these species, they may also have this ability. So while yes, all the dinosaurs are born female, the franchise implies that some individuals in each species converted to males once they reach a certain point in their development and therefore are now able to breed.
Dodgson appeared in the first movie. He was the one who asked Nedry to steal the embryos. "Dodgson! We got Dodgson here!" And that weird interaction with everyone was just his personality - he was paranoid and always looking around. A very shifty character.
I find it a shame that the original actor kidnapped and sexually assaulted a minor. But at least the new actor performed pretty decently. It seemed like the same character.
@@benmurphy9956 I’ve noticed this with other reactors who powered through a franchise films - they didn’t have time to absorb the movies for years (obviously) and analyzed them except what happened right in front of them. Nothing’s wrong with it, but it’s a different type of audience.
InGen didn't "rebrand". Biosyn was InGen's rival in terms of genetic technology and research. Dodgson hired Nedry in the first film to steal the embryos so they could catch up to InGen's level of research and advancements.
the long clawed dinosaur following Claire was called a Therizinosaurus and it is a very territorial creature which is why it killed the deer. Claire being in its territory disturbed its presence which was the reason it followed her. The Therizinosaurus that was following Claire was actually blind which was the reason why it didn't kill her immediately. This doesnt mean that all Therizinosaurus's were blind just just the one shown in the movie was blind.
If someone did that with a dog there's a fair chance that you will lose some fingers, you do that with a dinosaur and you'll lose your bloody arm. Stupid bloody film.
I'm just shocked the only explanation we get for that scene is from *BEHIND THE SCENES INTERVIEWS* It's only there that they go "this pose is a just a threat display designed to mimic a velociraptor. All it does is make an aggressive dinosaur pause for a few moments while they try and figure out what the heck they're looking at instead of going in on blind instinct." Why this explanation isn't anywhere in any of the films, even the extended cut, truly is beyond me.
@@SlimKim3 They were *supposed* to be all female. But that's the big revelation of the first movie, was that the unintended side effect of the frog DNA let some become male for the purpose of reproduction. But as far as anyone working at Jurassic Park would "know" they were all female, so that's why they said it.
@@SlimKim3 Lmao that line from Wu was at the beginning of the movie and the revelation that the dinosaurs laid eggs was near the end. Watch the movie before you try to argue lol.
@@Galiant2010 lol you're acting like what I said is wrong. The doctor did say all the dinosaurs in the park or female it didn't get explained until later on that it wasn't the case. I didn't say it was cemented in the first movie that all the dinosaurs were only female.
Dodgson is more or less the OG Jurassic Park villain, he's the guy who hired Dennis Nedry to steal the embryos in the first JP movie, I actually kinda liked him for that connection alone and knowing that connection also adds something kinda nice to the fact that he found an end very similar to Dennis Nedry: getting stuck while trying to get outta dodge before getting eaten in their vehicle by dilophosaurs
Stella, you are my hero: the delightfully excited dinosaur lover! 17:07 "...when you outgrow your T-Rex phase as a kid, you end up in the Giganotosaurus phase." 33:27 Kayla Watts: "Quetzalcoatlus." Stella: "I knew it, I knew it! I was waiting!" 😆
She’s phoney and you are a cringey simp. the “Outgrow your T-Rex phase you end up in the Giganotasaurus phase” comment has been made throughout many of the original trailer reaction videos. Also not much of a Dino lover if she didn’t even know what Therizinosaurus was. She clearly just watched trailers and did her research beforehand. 🥴
The real reason why Alan and Ellie took so long to Date and be with each other was one, Alan Grant actually didn’t wanna have kids, and he didn’t like children at all… so There’s your answer, and also even JP3 Movie kinda explained it already. And Lewis Dodgson’s demise I felt was a bit too soon, he’s the same guy who Hired Dennis Nedry to steal the Embryos from Jurassic Park place in 1993, but the reason why he looks so old and different, is cause the original actor who Played Dodgson was in Jail at the time of Dominion’s Shootings, Filming. Cameron Thor, the original guy who played Dodgson that hired Nedry, was sentenced to 5 or 6 years in prison for Allegations of Rape and Sexual misconduct, it turns out he wasn’t really a nice person…. So they had to recast him, this new guy actually looked a lot like the original Dodgson from almost 30 years prior, but except he’s much older. And he aged a bit horribly. And got skinnier. And whatever happened to Dodgson after his failed attempt to steal the embryos is anyone’s guess, but it’s speculated that Dodgson went back into hiding for soo long after the incident at Jurassic Park unfolded. And the Lore does tell us, that Lewis’s company, Biosyn, tried to buy inGen when they went chapter 11 bankruptcy, but John Hammond’s Investors, the Japanese investors who Hammond had impressed in the past, refused to sell the company to them. So they were sold to. Someone else that bought the company around the time of Hammond’s farewell/Death after 1997’s Jurassic Park Lost world events took place. However according to the Jurassic Park and Jurassic world Wiki site, they explain that while Dodgson was still hiding from the world, he actually took charge of being CEO for Biosyn in 2013 about 10 years ago. And he’s been the head of the company ever since before events of Jurassic World 1 events from 2015. I believe he was still getting started with his career as CEO when Indominus Rex broke out.
I understand completely why this movie didn't sit well with u guys. That's why I recommended the extended version because it is slightly better structured and it gave such a great and unique opening to the film that would've made the end battle make much more sense. The opening brought us back in the past with us seeing a feathered T-Rex (which supposedly is the OG Rex we see in the first JP and World Movies that would later be cloned and created 65 million years later) and a Giga fighting with the aftermath of the fight having the Rex being defeated. This initial scene was perfect it gave the end battle a somewhat rematch between the 2 species 65 million years in the making. The initial prolouge scene was originally intended to be in the official cut of the movie but was cut out of the official version with only the extended version having added it back in. Even in the extended version, in the end battle scene, if u pause on the shots of the Rex laying defeated everytime it thunders for a split milli-second the shot goes back with the Rex having slight feathers and the background changes to 65 million years ago in the past giving a somewhat flashback memory from the past.The extended version also gave a better insight understanding of the original intent of the locusts project before it became a somewhat disaster. Also speaking of Dodgson, I'm surprised u guys didn't catch that the CEO of Biosyn in this movie is the same guy that hired Dennis Nedry from the first movie to steal the embryos from the original Jurassic Park. Dennis nedry did say in the first movie one of the most famous lines "We've got Dodgson here". Biosyn had always existed since the first JP movie with Dodgson's first small appearance. If u guys r wondering how Dodgson retrieved the barbasol can u guys will have to watch the animated Netflix series Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous to find that out. This movie has 2 references from that animated show such as the neural implants that Biosyn uses to control and herd the dinosaurs and the barbosol can being retrieved. Finally I also get why the ending didn't feel right. The first movie talked about how dinosaurs and humans cannot coexist cuz it would be a total disaster with the dinosaurs wiping out many of the modern species and being a threat to humanity. This movie however decides to ignore all that and go with dinosaurs, humans, and modern wildlife living together happily ever after which totally contradicts the main message that the original had established. I really wished people would've seen the original/extended version of the movie as it was slightly better paced with some important context to take note of. This is my ranking of the movies so far: Jurassic Park: 10/10 The Lost World: 9/10 Jurassic Park 3: 4/10 Jurassic World: 8/10 Fallen Kingdom: 7/10 Dominion (Theatrical Cut): 5/10 Dominion (Extended Cut): 6/10 Fun fact: The funny computer guy with the glasses from the first Jurassic World Lowery Cruthers was supposed to appear in this movie but he was cut out due to the actor already working on other projects and having busy schedule.
I watched this dumpster fire in the movie theater and couldn't believe they drug it out so long. Nostalgia factor wasn't there, plot was there and lost and the "bad guy" was so disappointing that I couldn't deal with it. I felt emotion 3 times total. 2 of sadness and 1 of tense fear for her when the bird dino was above her in the water. sigh. Could have been so much better.
No lol, there is nothing good about this film. It is a trainwreck. Convoluted plot, bad acting, bad writing and unmemorable in every single way. They should have stopped this series at Jurassic park 2. The third was awful and the IP was dropped for a good reason. The rebooted series was fairly ok wit hthe first one but bottomed out by the third.
Fun fact: You can't really recreate "giant bugs". Their size was a consequence of the higher levels of oxygen in the atmosphere in the prehistoric times, since their circulatory system adapts the whole body to said concentration. If you made such a giant bug today, it would die because of lack of air. We still have some big bugs, but you can't recreate such massive ones.
The fact my husband had to tell me- Dotson was in the first movie for a brief time. "Dotson, we've got dotson here! See ,no body cares" he gave the guy ,who also died by dino poison, the shaving cream canister and bag of money to switch sides. So the entire (surviving ) cast made a comeback ❤ Which just makes me want to watch the first movie all over again ❤
I love that they made Therazinosaurus like an anteater: basically blind and homicidally violent with anything that might be a threat. I also loved that the a significant amount of the action revolved around dinosaur poaching and a dinosaur wet market. It's also nice that instead of offering a pat overall solution, the movie leaves humanity with no alternative but to adapt to endemic dinosaurs in ecosystems worldwide. The whole series kinda functions as an allegory for climate change now. Also: Owen's "hand thing" is more Crocodile Dundee's hand thing.
Unpopular opinion but I like the clone storyline with Maise Lockwood. It helps to add an extra layer of morality and her journey of self discovery makes a lot of sense. Which btw is probably the reason behind her choice to save the dinos in the last movie. Anyway dinosaur movies...if you want a comedy there's Land of the Lost with Will Ferrell.
I hated it but I hated it more when in this movie they never address the fact that she screwed over the ecosystem problem putted multiple species in danger and that lot of people died because of her.All because "they're alive".
@@darkastre8178 Not directly addressed you're right. Although they do mention those issues in the beginning part of the movie which Maise is definitely largely responsible for. On the flip side, many of the dinosaurs were already sold and the cloning tech released. So some of those dinosaurs were not freed by her. Still like I said it really adds a layer of moral questionability.
@@kevinbecker4327 they were sold but didn't leave yet and were most likely still in the basement even if we talk about about the cloning recipe.She let the dinosaur out in the wild and is directly responsible for multiple people's death but the movie act like isn't responsible for this big event.
@@darkastre8178 Even if you see the number of people kille by dinosaurus in one year more people are still killed every years in car accident yet people drive them regartless.
it's a very quick "blink-and-you-miss-it" moment, but dr. grant still has the resonating chamber he had in JP3 in his tent, and you could see it briefly. he also doesn't have the raptor claw because if you remember in the first movie, he threw it out of the tree he was in with tim and lex. the theri is also only one of the dinosaurs mixed into the indominus' makeup. along with the giga.
The sail-backed animals in the cave are Dimetrodons ( a type of pelycosaur that went extinct before dinosaurs were even a thing). The cave scene was an homage to the 1959 film 'Journey To The Center Of The Earth'. In that movie, iguanas with sails glued to their backs were used and made to look gigantic.
The tyrannosaurus, named rexy, is the very same from the very beginning and she has been there in most movies. She’s the og and I personally think one of the best characters of the series
Fun fact, Biosyn has always been there. They were Ingen's competition, and the ones who sent Nedry to steal the embryos. They're never really mentioned in the movies, but have a much more prominent presence in the 2 books. The current CEO in the film is actually the same guy that met Nedry in Costa Rica (recast, though).
what i find most conflicting are the facts surrounding both Maisie and her "mom". for one thing, in Fallen Kingdom they said that Maisie's "mom" was killed in a car crash, but then in Dominion she died of a genetic disorder. another is who actually created Maisie, in Fallen Kingdom it was said that the father missed his daughter and had her cloned, but then in Dominion the "mom" did it herself before she passed. just some things that i find confusing....
I think it was the mom,and we heard Elli mills say that to Claire and Owen,maybe mills didn't actually knew who cloned her,he just knew that she was a clone and maybe he assumed that Lockwood did it.
This was addressed with Benjamin Lockwood covering up Maisie’s true origins to protect Charlotte’s integrity. He took the brunt of Hammond’s wrath so she didn’t have to.
@@rhysgarner8677 Hammond was dead about ten years before Maisie was born in 2007ish. Hammond and Lockwood split because Lockwood intended to move the InGen tech into the realm of human application and Hammond felt it was immoral, the "unholy thing" that Lockwood did.
@@davedaugherty86 It was explained in Fallen kingdom that they split because of his human cloning. That was the great unholy thing that Lockwood was supposed to have done
@@davedaugherty86 “She used her father's genetic technology in an attempt to create trials of creating a clone child of herself to give birth to. When Hammond found out about Charlotte's intentions, he furiously declares this to be "unholy" as he morally opposes human cloning. However, Charlotte refused to give up her dream of having a child and Lockwood defended Charlotte's actions, which caused both Lockwood and Hammond to end their partnership, with Benjamin residing at his manor in seclusion.[1]”
I feel like the Jurassic World Franchise as a whole but especially this Last movie can be summed up with "Your Producers were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should"
So, some facts I wanna spill just to clear some context and provide info on: -The T-Rex was the original from the first movie, Rexy. In the Extended Version of the movie there is a prologue with her in the past, 65 Million years ago, the original rex she was cloned from. That rex was killed by a wild Giganotosaurus, then had a mosquito drink its blood. So the end fight of this movie is killing the Giganotosaurus is like her getting revenge on her ancestors death. -The dinosaur with the long claws is Therizinosaurus, a herbivorous dinosaur related to T-Rex found in Asia. It's commonly believed that this dinosaur is aggressive and territorial, which it's behavior is practically ten fold in the movie given it's blind. -The villain of this movie, Lewis Dogson, is the same guy that gave the barbasol can to Nedry in the first movie. So him being killed by Dilophosaurus is pretty ironic. -The cave animals are Dimetrodons, which are actually NOT dinosaurs. They are older than dinosaurs and are a class of prehistoric animals called synapsids, or Mammal-like reptiles. The animal in the Malta Arena, the lil creature with the tusk, is a Lystrosaurus, which is the same as a Dimetrodon. Lystrosaurus was one of the very few creatures that survived the Permian Extinction, which wiped out 90% of all life on earth. -The feathered raptor on the ice is a Pyroraptor. They're now believed to be related to another raptor called Austroraptor, which were fishing raptors adapted to an aquatic environment, pretty ironic because of the name. If I'm correct it was named after an incident that occurred in a museum, which I think got caught on fire.
The one she mistakenly called a "-Mimus" is actually a completely different genus of Dinosaur. That creature is Therizinosaurus, one of the most oddball Dinosaurs that ever lived. Its name means "Scythe Reptile", after those massive claws which were originally thought to be the ribs of a giant TURTLE (they're about 30 long), and even though it's a Theropod like T-Rex and the Raptors, it and its kind have actually given up eating meat and evolved to become plant-eaters instead (it's generally thought those claws would be used to pull down branches, even though they could still deliver very nasty wounds to attacking predators). And fun fact about this particular Therizinosaurus: This one in the film is actually blind, and is navigating its world via echolocation.
I think a big part of the problem with this too-long movie is that you don't really feel any tension throughout it -- because you never feel like they have the cojones to kill off any character you like. You know they won't kill off any of the original stars (Ian, Alan, Ellie) or the new stars (Claire, Owen), or the kid. And they didn't give you any new likable characters to fret over. There are a couple new good guys (the pilot, the mole), but they're never in any real danger. So the end feels like a slog because there are no real stakes. The only time I was a little worried is when Ian got separated from the rest during the Giganautosaurus encounter. The only character killed in the last half of the movie is Dodgson. They didn't even have the guts to kill Dr. Wu, who was basically the villain of the entire franchise. In contrast, JPI killed off sympathetic characters left and right (the hunter, the poor lawyer, Samuel L. Jackson), and JPII had the devastating death of that poor guy who was trying to save Ian and the rest. The other thing that bugged me was that Alan Grant was really cool and capable in JP I and III, and in this one he's sort of the butt of the joke, wandering around following everyone else and not really being helpful at all. It's a shame.
Why do they think that clones need to be exactly the same as the original? Even with how intelligent they are , clones mean that they have the same gene nothing different, but each experience makes them unique and different
It's really crazy because the chasing scene doesn't have a BGM untill the end, so you only listen to the vehicles and the sound of the thumps of dinosaurs running, in the cinema it was crazy because it made me hold my breath and have even more of the impression of being chased by them.
This wasn't a terrible movie. In fact, it's got some of the BEST designs (I LOVE the Pyroraptor) and has some of the best use of practical effects in the series. But they still missed a LOT of opportunities that would've made the movie SO much better (not to mention how many good scenes they CUT from the final version). The biggest flaw is that the movie didn't focus on the idea of dinosaurs living all over the world. The news report at the beginning of the movie was really well done, and I was hoping to see the movie go with that more, but they didn't... I liked how they ended up in the sanctuary at the end, but I wished the movie focused more on getting them there and how the world's dealing with them. Not to mention, I wish they could've tied in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous to this movie more, which I think you guys would really like! Overall, Dominion isn't terrible, but it's definitely near the bottom for me, at least the theatrical version. The extended cut is MUCH better!
Remember they explained in the first movie that they used frog dna to replace missing links and those types of frogs can switch sex to ensure the continuation of the species in a same sex environment
That crabbing boat at the beginning is the Saga, captained by Jake Anderson, from the reality tv show Deadliest Catch. I would have loved to hear him swear up a storm when that dinosaur stole his crabbing pot.
i liked the ending where the animals today are with the dinosaurs. thought that was personally cool seeing how they’re in a way similar. the movie overall i did like but there were some stuff that fumbled a bit. i like it because my kid likes it too. my husband on the other hand? yeah he nitpicked every little thing despite us seeing the extended version that gives more information. i told him it was just a movie nevertheless and there are some things that would leave us scratching our heads a bit 😅 great reaction though everyone! it made my morning! i was looking forward you all seeing this film! ❤️
In 20 years I look forward to the next trilogy, Jurassic Planet. Humanity has spread to the stars and dedicated a whole planet to being a dino habitat. Shennanigans ensue. T-Rexes fighting stars, Velociraptors flying starfighters, the clone of Alan Grant floating in a space suit in the crosshairs of an indo-raptor piloting a ship saying "don't move".
You know what's especially funny about both the Quetzalcoatlus AND the Dimetrodon? This is their debut on-screen, but they've been a part of JP lore since the first film came out. They've even had official JP TOYS since the first film came out!
Good things came from this movie too, like the OG and the new characters came together formed a team of survivors and they survived till the end like they always do, Kayla and Ramsay happened, Owen, Clarie and Maisie became a family that happened, Henry's redemption happened and Beta happened, Blue's daughter that's was sweet.
Props to Stella for that Quetzalcoatl reference! BioSyn is the original competing company against InGen in the Jurassic Park books. Dodgson's actor was replaced from the first Jurassic Park (who met Nedry with that Barbasol can). That actor (Campbell Scott) was also Andrew Garfield's dad in Amazing Spider-Man series. When I watched this with friends, they keep saying he looked like Tim Cook, (current CEO of Apple) so it's the usual corporate villain archetype. :)) For all of these movie's flaws, I mostly enjoyed it for the reunion of the OG with the new gen, and NO ONE in the OG was killed or character assassinated for the sake of "passing the torch" as most movies are so adamant nowadays (looking at you, Disney). And much like everyone else, I'm glad Alan and Ellie are finally together after 3 decades.
Funny you should mention Apple company because when I saw the movie at the theater when it first came out, I thought the guy reminded me completely of Steve Job. The actor is actually the son of George c Scott and Colleen Dewhurst, both famous actors on their own.
35:29 Therizinosaurus. Aggressive herbivore from Mongolia. The claw was first discovered (though at first we thought it was a ribcage of a new type of extinct turtle). Then we found the claw with an arm and was thought of as a predator. Later, we find out it's a herbivore. Though sometimes we nickname it the vegetarian T.Rex.
Honestly the end moral for me is less directed at the dinosaurs but, in general for all animals. Like in order for human survival on this planet we are going to NEED to coexist with the world around us.I also believe that the change in purpose of these movies is necessary because at first it was answering the childhood question "Should we bring back dinosaurs?" And the answer was "no". Then with the Jurassic World movies it changes the question from a "should" to a "why". And then in the first Jurassic World it was saying "hey, these creatures are living, breathing animals" bringing us back to remember that the real animals around us are living not just tools for human gain. The last two for the Jurassic World era are just saying "whatever we do has humans have dire consequences. And if we do continue, WE have to deal with no matter what.". Overall the Jurassic's are saying people cannot play god, we are too complex and the world around us is too complex for us to understand. In order to play god.
I mostly agree. I feel like one of the messages in all of the films (to varying degrees) is that "humanity" is the problem and its ego needs to be taken down a few notches by feeling the repercussions rather than trying to erase them.
Fun fact - The Therizinosaurus couldn’t see Claire because it’s actually blind show by the white eye. When an eye is white it’s normally covered by something meaning it can’t see very well if at all.
Here's my ranking for the JURASSIC PARK franchise: JURASSIC PARK, 9/10 The Lost World Jurassic Park, 8/10 JURASSIC PARK///, 6/10 JURASSIC WORLD, 8/10 JURASSIC WORLD 2: FALLEN KINGDOM, 7/10 JURASSIC WORLD 3: DOMINION (Original Cut), 6/10 JURASSIC WORLD 3: DOMINION (Extended Cut), 7/10.
It was explained in the first Jurassic Park movie by Grant and the kids after they stumbled upon the hatched eggs after Tim got out of the tree. all the dinosaurs are female, and how when they were created their genes were mixed with frogs. Some frogs can change their gender if one gender if overpopulated to create balance, which is what the dinosaurs have been doing in order to breed. That is how Blue became a mom. She pretty much cloned herself which also happens in real life. But it also brings the genders back around as when that happens in real life, the 'offspring/clones' are female and usually cannot reproduce but as Ian Malcome said, ' Life finds a way'. Also the thing that follows Claire after she gets out of the plane crash is a herbivore and is called a Therizinosaurus aka Tickle Chicken cause of it's long claws. XD
Maybe I have an unpopular opinion, but I loved this movie. I loved having the OG characters and the new franchise characters all together and working together. Plus the new characters, like the pilot and the biosyn guy that was with the good guys were great additions. 🦕 🦖 ❤
Definitely unpopular, it is by all accounts a terrible movie with a bloated cast, contrived plot without any real sense and no actual point to be made by the end of it. But the effects do look cool, and we did get to see a therizinosaurus. So it's not terrible, it's just a bad movie.
Dodgson was in the first film who hired Dennis Nedry. I don't think this film was bad people think it was and at least they didn't kill our original trio.
Dodson was the man from Jurassic park 1 who was paying Denis Nedry to smuggle out embryo's the one with the Babersol shaving foam that was given to Nedry at the Café
Ian Malcolm the gentleman, asking for consent before touching her blouse lol so cute 😂 I feel like they just let Jeff Goldblum ad lib most of his lines.
In the original book, it was implied that the dinosaurs had had made it off the island and found a way to survival in the world. Being a horror book, the ending of Jurassic Park was meant to be foreboding as it implied that the dinosaurs were going to eventually retake the Earth and cause humans to be the ones to go extinct. The World movies retired to revive that concept, but sadly they fell flat as they shied away from what should have been the apocalypse Michael Crichton alluded towards in favor of a poorer version of "save the whales." Could have been amazing. Imagine the Jurassic World were humanity is being hunted to extinction. Genetic companies like Biosyn, Manticore, and the remnants of InGen either working a way to hold the dinosaurs at bay as they develop something like an engineered/revived disease to kill them off, or even trying to bring the fight to them as they go all in on killer hybrids. Maybe bring into canon some of the old toylines, like the Chaos Theory Hybrids into play. So many possibilities, yet they went for the safe route.
13:20 correct. 27:47 just so you know, all 4 Atrociraptors survived. what became of them after the chase is unknown. 30:23-30:26 think of Charlotte and Blue's DNA as a chain with a faulty link that would ultimately break it. Maisie and Beta's DNA are basically that same chain, but the faulty link is replaced with a new one. as for the locusts, Wu needed Maisie and Beta's DNA so that he could understand how the process i tried to explain worked, so that he could create a faulty link to add to the locust DNA (he said that the locusts aren't dying, but spreading. he's trying to prevent global famine behind Dodgson's back). not sure if i explained myself; i did my best. 35:37 Therizinosaurus Cheloniformis; not related to Ornithomimids in any way. it's a herbivorous Maniraptoran. some herbivores are very territorial. there's rarely such a thing as a "gentle giant". 37:50 that was Pyroraptor Olympus, a raptor from southern France and northern Spain (not Greece, like i once assumed). 41:51 Dimetrodon; NOT a dinosaur, but a Synapsid. it's more related to us, simply put. 43:00 correct. 43:01 the same 46:24 favourite clip in the entire film! also Dragon Breath. 49:49 girls find bugs disgusting, Ian; it's not that simple for them to just walk across the room when there's, say, a Cockroach or House Centipede. 50:02-50:04 which is ironic considering that back in Jurassic Park Ian was the one who guided Ellie all the way to the generator in the maintenance shed. 54:22 the Giga didn't deserve this. all it did was defend its home; and it got killed unjustly. R.I.P. Giganotosaurus.
This is not the end for the Saga. It's been confirmed that there will be 3 more films in the franchise, with Bryce Dallas Howard returning as a director to the new series of films that will released in 2025. However, none of the cast will be returning to the series. Frank Marshall, producer, said that this might happen sooner rather than later.
I don't think it was confirmed she was directing one. I thought I remembered seeing her as a *possible* name to helm one of the movies because of her work on Mando and connection with the Jurassic franchise. I'd love the choice, but again, I don't remember this being confirmed.
What disappointed me so much was that the previous movie promised us "dinosaurs are out there" and the beginning of the movie still reminded us that dinosaurs are all around the world, but the majority of the film still took place in what is essentially a park.
My self and a group of friends saw this for my birthday (released two days before). I always remember at 41.43 my boyfriend sitting next to me grabbed my hand almost having a panic attack. Turns out he thought that dinosaur looked way too much like a Komodo dragon which is his number one phobia.
Seems you didn’t remember Dodgson. He was the guy who hired Nedry to steal the embryos in the very first movie. And they made him so. Damn. Boring! At the very least he got a poetic death Therizinosaurus was the big claw herbivore. It was blind. Fun(?) easter egg. The other two T-rexes at the end are apparently the Buck and the Doe from Lost World, which makes sense since they said a lot of the Biosyn dinos were from Sorna. Nothing on Junior tho. It’s been long theorized Junior was the T-rex that was killed by the Spino in 3, but that’s never been confirmed
Given that JW 2 and 3 are dreadfully shitty movies, I don't see how watching a masterpiece like the first JP would make them better. On the contrary. The comparison is painful. On the other hand, it started going downhill with The Lost World, and JP3 was almost as bad as JW3.
What really makes NO SENSE to me is: HOW the F*ck did all the land based dinosaurs cross the oceans and spread all over the world? Did they take a plane ride? Did they hop onto boats? HOW?! 😆
The only way my poor brain could answer that was maybe the few buyers? Or maybe time enough of people doing black Markey stuff, lost control and they continued to reproduce? Ehhh... I still have the same complaint but it's the best I personally came up with.
@@PestilentAllosaurus Yeah I had some similar theories... It was just something that immediately broke the immersion/feeling of realism when I started watching it. I know it's just a dumb 'adventure' movie meant to entertain, but still, it annoys me.
@@playerone7663 yeah, same. Same thing with the prolog of the real tyrannosaurus rex fighting giganatosaurus, because they didn't live in the same area let alone sane time. Lol
@@PestilentAllosaurus Movie studio's be like "WHY ARE YOU ASKING ALL THESE QUESTIONS? Here, have a black lesbian!" (and no I'm not some crazy anti-woke dude....just making a joke)
I did not like this movie when I first saw it. After having seen it again, it has started to grow on me. There are things I didn't pick up the first time. It was definitely better the second time after I knew what to expect, I enjoyed it a lot more.
I am not sure how you guys felt about the Malta segment. But for me it felt like it was taped on to have a longer runtime. As for the Dinosaurs, well they look great as usual even if they aren't paleo accurate. I felt sorry for the Giga because it really wasn't being a villain, it was just being an animal. The one other thing I have to comment on with them however is. The Therizinosaurus is not meant to stab with it's claws, they are meant for pulling branches and to slash at predators. They would have broken immediately when Rexy pushed the Giga onto them.
i love that malcom, allen and sally are wearing almost the same clothes that they were wearing in the og movie..atleast malcom in his intro scene..the black leather jacket ..brings back memories
The Freddy Krueger-looking dinosaur is Therizinosaurus, a herbivour theropod from the same grup ( = clade) of tyrannosaurids and dromaeosaurids. It is blind, that's why it is cautious around Claire, because it doesn't recognize the smell. The deer was a stranger in its territory, that's why the claw strike. And, yes, it's an herbivore, and we shouldn't be surprised herbivores can be dangerous. They are dangerous indeed! Unfortunately, nowadays dinosaur movies depict carnivorous as the BBEG whils herbivores are the "safe kind and calm cows". Quite the opposite. A predator who has eaten is "safe" to approach, an herbivour is a clock-bomb, randomly reacting to external agents. I'm still looking forward for a movie where sauropods or even duck-billed dinosaurs (hadrosaurids) are dangerous. Ah, the tiny cute-looking animal with the tusks in Malta arena is a dicynodont, actually one of our ancestors (a synapsid which lived in the Triassic, totally unrelated to dinosaurs) as the animals in the cave, Dimetrodon, also synapsids... NOT dinosaurs ;) Also, let me say that I love Stella engagment with dinosaurs
Fun fact there was a video that said that even if dinos never went exist we still could coexist in peace with small medium dinosaur living in the outsides while most big ones living in protected areas like how we coexist with eagles,bears,elephants, wolves,lions,tigers , sharks and other big animals in our world.
Maybe with the small and medium dinos that live outside like birds,squirrels,rabbits deer or coyotes while most of the bigger dinos would be living in areas safe from poaching,animal trafficking and human/ animal conflict and even some small friendly dinos could have been like house pets like dogs,cats or birds.
And you 4 should see Movies from blue sky and cartoon Saloon and skydance animation like Rio Wolfwalkers Luck Amazing Maurice and Maya and the three! IM serious you should see it!
The truth is, not all the dinosaurs in the movie are female. But most of them are female. The director said that there was also a male dinosaurs in the park. but has prevented them from breeding during the park's opening. Take, for example, some of the dinosaurs that changed gender in the first movie. and some dinosaurs transported from isla sorna during the construction of Jurassic World also has a male. Dinosaurs that has African frog DNA are able to change gender to mate when the opposite gender is absent from the same species in the herd. But for a dinosaur that is the only one of its species, it cannot change gender. Take, for example, the original T-Rex aka Rexy. She was the only T-Rex on the island at the first place. So she was female all her life. because she had no reason to change gender. because there are no pairs to mate. But when she meets Buck and Doe at the end of this movie. She can't change gender either. Because Rexy is too old for breeding. And Buck is already a male T-Rex.
You're probably not gonna see this because I'm a month too late, but here comes a Fun Fact: David Attenborough explained in the "Prehistoric Planet" series (Apple+, really good if you like watching dinosaurs) that actually, Raptors did have feathers, but as this was discovered just a few years ago (after Jurassic World 1 came out), they couldn't change Blues appearence from one movie to the other.
This is my son's all time favourite movie! Which is surprising to me since I would have thought this one would be less appealing to a kid than the first Jurassic World (his former favourite) but he just loves it! Sometime I think we need to not overthink these sorts of movies and just enjoy them for what they are the way a kid does - excitement, action and DINOSAURS! 😄
Totally agree! This isn’t one of my favorites from the series, but there’s so many cool moments and visuals, and I love the characters, I can easily overlook the nitpicky things.
You guys could watch "Jurassic World: Battle At Big Rock" it's a 10 minute short film available on UA-cam. There's also the Dominion prologue which is the first 5 minutes of the movie(that you guys didn't see because it's in the extended cut). It's beautiful. Hope you guys check it out!
@Bernardo Coutinho Beny2000 Even if the prolong doesn't make sense since they didn't live at the same time nor place. But is there a lot of new scenes or just a couple? But thanks for letting us know! Gotta watch the extended version then!
The neural implant and barbosal can we’re actually explained in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous seasons 4 & 5. Opinions on the show however very from great to terrible depending on how they feel about the entire story. However those 2 seasons generally have a “terrible” rating due to certain aspects they introduce.
I liked in all the Jurassic park/world movies that the OG dinosaurs took out the newly bred genetically designed dinosaurs showing that nature fixes mistakes. It was cool towards the end at Biosyn the T-Rex walking by the circle copied the Jurassic logo.
While I'm somewhat let down that you watched the theatrical cut, considering its messy and that it's not the version the director wanted to release, I do appreciate you covering the movie altogether. I have mixed feelings on JW: Dominion. It's not as bland and derivative as JPIII but it also doesn't feel like the final hurrah to the franchise that it could've (and should've) been. Characters didn't get closure that would've been more appropriate or fulfilling (Alan didn't get to meet the Pyroraptor which just never sat right with me). The Giganotosaurus and it's shoehorned rivalry with the Tyrannosaurus which was set up in the prehistoric prologue was so redundant, more so considering neither animals lived in the same time or place. That being said, I appreciate the movie for reintroducing Lewis Dodgson and BioSyn, the locust plotline, though somewhat intrusive, was interesting and felt like a natural progression for the themes of genetic manipulation, and some scenes, especially the Therizinosaurus encounter, felt like something straight out of The Lost World. Michael Giachinno's music is also just as good as it has been for the last two movies. Makes sense since he's been involved with the franchise for a WHILE (his first gig was the PS1 game for The Lost World). While I don't expect you to revisit this movie by reacting to the extended cut, I do think it's worth checking out just to see what Colin Trevorrow wanted to give us. Great video all around though.
I know that like many other franchises that get stretched to so many movies, the latest additions do suffer a little bit. Somethings that would get people rolling their eyes. Some, absolutely dumb decisions along the way. But this movie has a small special something to me, this was the last movie that I went to see at the theater with my dad when he was sick and before we lost him. And the fact that the movie wasn't all action and horror was something that we both could appreciate in the last opus. Thanks for watching one of my favorite franchise ever!
I think my main issue with the film was the marketing was focused on bringing back Alan, Ian and Ellie and having them meet the current characters.... and then they didn't meet till the very end. Once they did meet I am conflicted on what they did, I both loved and hated all the references to the original film, and I spent the entire time thinking "ah, I see what they did there!" I think it had so much potential, but was just too reliant on bringing back original characters to focus on the actual story. If they could have balanced both, this could have been a really good film.
People give this movie a lot of hate, but it wasn't the worst. I'm not saying it's a masterpiece, but I loved seeing the world they built with the black market, the humans having to work around dinosaurs, and heck those creepy bugs. Just a fun movie, not good but not awful
very true, there were plenty of pros and cons to the movie, and whether it was technically a good movie or not doesn't really matter. movies are, at their core, simply meant to entertain. and this one did its job
@@nicolepetri7086 Blue asexually reproducing was enough of a hand-waving reason as to why the other dinos could multiply... but yeah, the new species was frustrating to see. That's really the only thing that REALLY bothers me about this movie.
What other dinosaur movies should we watch??
-The lost World (1925)
-The land before time
-Dinosaur (2000)
Walking With Dinosaurs 3D
Land Before Time I guess. Disney’s Dinosaur. Live action Super Mario Bros technically counts.
65!!!!
Definitely Disney’s dinosaur (2000)
Actually the statement "You are the only you that ever was," is absolutely correct. It doesn't matter if she is a clone or an identical twin, her experiences have made her a unique person with her own personality.
but the dino's are "just like her"
Honestly, the very fact that she's a clone already makes her different because her mother was not.
@@sonadowfangirl30869, the implication is that because she is a "clone" she is identical to her mother, which is why I point out that "identical" twins/triplets/etc. (scientifically referred to as clone twins/triplets/etc.) are not really identical.
Exactly, everything with the clone plot is not subtle and it still went completely over their heads
Epigeneticssss
Blue gave birth through parthenogenesis. Basically she cloned herself which is something that happens with real life animals. Insane.
Alan Grant Explained In Jurassic Park 1 that some Frogs can change sex from male to female and so that's why all the dinos can breed. People don't pay attention these days to film
Or they just forgot.
@@Ringking-ws7bz they already seemed controversial even before reacting to these movies for some reason.
A really cool fact is that certain species of sharks can do this as well
@@Ringking-ws7bz even with sex changed, you still need the other gender. the only explanation is asexual like xenomorph is
To answer the dinosaur sex/gender issue you guys had in the beginning- some animals IRL are all born the same gender and then switch gender through social pressure as they age. This is usually done via pheromones- males give off distinctive pheromones and when a group of females do not detect these pheromones for a certain period of time, one of the females will convert to a male to ensure the females can breed. Some species, like bees and ants, can do this by feeding larvae specific foods laced with specific chemicals.
Fish, amphibians, and insects all have species who do this, and in the first movie, Grant hypothesized that since the dinosaurs DNA were spliced with some of these species, they may also have this ability.
So while yes, all the dinosaurs are born female, the franchise implies that some individuals in each species converted to males once they reach a certain point in their development and therefore are now able to breed.
Yes, Allen actually says why in the first movie when he finds the egg shells. It has to do with some of the genetic code borrowed from frogs.
Cardinal Birds can also do it.
This does not apply to human transgenders. So, why?
@@mr.k1611 because that's not how human biology works.🙄 All mammals, including humans, require both genders to reproduce.
@@mr.k1611 That's such a weird, dumb, and random thing to say.
Dodgson appeared in the first movie. He was the one who asked Nedry to steal the embryos. "Dodgson! We got Dodgson here!" And that weird interaction with everyone was just his personality - he was paranoid and always looking around. A very shifty character.
And makes sense why he died the same way Nedry did, by the same dinos and even had the can of shaving cream near him when he died.
i was hoping that they would have caught on eventually, maybe even quote the line once or twice. but they didn't...
I find it a shame that the original actor kidnapped and sexually assaulted a minor.
But at least the new actor performed pretty decently. It seemed like the same character.
@@benmurphy9956 I’ve noticed this with other reactors who powered through a franchise films - they didn’t have time to absorb the movies for years (obviously) and analyzed them except what happened right in front of them. Nothing’s wrong with it, but it’s a different type of audience.
He was played by a different actor obviously
InGen didn't "rebrand". Biosyn was InGen's rival in terms of genetic technology and research. Dodgson hired Nedry in the first film to steal the embryos so they could catch up to InGen's level of research and advancements.
Oh well, that makes sense
the long clawed dinosaur following Claire was called a Therizinosaurus and it is a very territorial creature which is why it killed the deer. Claire being in its territory disturbed its presence which was the reason it followed her. The Therizinosaurus that was following Claire was actually blind which was the reason why it didn't kill her immediately. This doesnt mean that all Therizinosaurus's were blind just just the one shown in the movie was blind.
I just call it Doyouthinkhesaurus.
@@mikewilliams736 a more realistic name to these abominations
@@tlilreapert4904 Still looks way more realistic then the Giga
Facts these guys don't even know
It being blind was probably another reason it killed the deer just in case it was a predator
Omg Stella's eye-roll at 50:26 PERFECTLY sums up this whole weird "hand signature" in this movie! 🤣🤣🤣
If someone did that with a dog there's a fair chance that you will lose some fingers, you do that with a dinosaur and you'll lose your bloody arm. Stupid bloody film.
She's pretty much saying, "Oh. PLEASE! Give me a BREAK!" 😂😂😂
I'm just shocked the only explanation we get for that scene is from *BEHIND THE SCENES INTERVIEWS*
It's only there that they go "this pose is a just a threat display designed to mimic a velociraptor. All it does is make an aggressive dinosaur pause for a few moments while they try and figure out what the heck they're looking at instead of going in on blind instinct."
Why this explanation isn't anywhere in any of the films, even the extended cut, truly is beyond me.
😏
@@MikeMozzaro **Utharaptor not Velociraptor
If you want to defend yourself from a Velociraptor, you just need to wear boots and have a Stick
Even in the original movie, it was said that the frog DNA caused some females to turn to males. So there are males. People always forget that.
The doctor said "all the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park or female."
@@SlimKim3 They were *supposed* to be all female. But that's the big revelation of the first movie, was that the unintended side effect of the frog DNA let some become male for the purpose of reproduction. But as far as anyone working at Jurassic Park would "know" they were all female, so that's why they said it.
@@Galiant2010 do people watch movies and just not think anymore
@@SlimKim3 Lmao that line from Wu was at the beginning of the movie and the revelation that the dinosaurs laid eggs was near the end. Watch the movie before you try to argue lol.
@@Galiant2010 lol you're acting like what I said is wrong. The doctor did say all the dinosaurs in the park or female it didn't get explained until later on that it wasn't the case. I didn't say it was cemented in the first movie that all the dinosaurs were only female.
Dodgson is more or less the OG Jurassic Park villain, he's the guy who hired Dennis Nedry to steal the embryos in the first JP movie, I actually kinda liked him for that connection alone and knowing that connection also adds something kinda nice to the fact that he found an end very similar to Dennis Nedry: getting stuck while trying to get outta dodge before getting eaten in their vehicle by dilophosaurs
Hey its dogson, its dogson everybody see nobody cares😂
Is Byosin's old man Dodson???
Stella, you are my hero: the delightfully excited dinosaur lover! 17:07 "...when you outgrow your T-Rex phase as a kid, you end up in the Giganotosaurus phase." 33:27 Kayla Watts: "Quetzalcoatlus." Stella: "I knew it, I knew it! I was waiting!" 😆
She’s phoney and you are a cringey simp. the “Outgrow your T-Rex phase you end up in the Giganotasaurus phase” comment has been made throughout many of the original trailer reaction videos. Also not much of a Dino lover if she didn’t even know what Therizinosaurus was. She clearly just watched trailers and did her research beforehand. 🥴
The real reason why Alan and Ellie took so long to Date and be with each other was one, Alan Grant actually didn’t wanna have kids, and he didn’t like children at all… so There’s your answer, and also even JP3 Movie kinda explained it already.
And Lewis Dodgson’s demise I felt was a bit too soon, he’s the same guy who Hired Dennis Nedry to steal the Embryos from Jurassic Park place in 1993, but the reason why he looks so old and different, is cause the original actor who Played Dodgson was in Jail at the time of Dominion’s Shootings, Filming. Cameron Thor, the original guy who played Dodgson that hired Nedry, was sentenced to 5 or 6 years in prison for Allegations of Rape and Sexual misconduct, it turns out he wasn’t really a nice person…. So they had to recast him, this new guy actually looked a lot like the original Dodgson from almost 30 years prior, but except he’s much older. And he aged a bit horribly. And got skinnier. And whatever happened to Dodgson after his failed attempt to steal the embryos is anyone’s guess, but it’s speculated that Dodgson went back into hiding for soo long after the incident at Jurassic Park unfolded. And the Lore does tell us, that Lewis’s company, Biosyn, tried to buy inGen when they went chapter 11 bankruptcy, but John Hammond’s Investors, the Japanese investors who Hammond had impressed in the past, refused to sell the company to them. So they were sold to. Someone else that bought the company around the time of Hammond’s farewell/Death after 1997’s Jurassic Park Lost world events took place. However according to the Jurassic Park and Jurassic world Wiki site, they explain that while Dodgson was still hiding from the world, he actually took charge of being CEO for Biosyn in 2013 about 10 years ago. And he’s been the head of the company ever since before events of Jurassic World 1 events from 2015. I believe he was still getting started with his career as CEO when Indominus Rex broke out.
I understand completely why this movie didn't sit well with u guys. That's why I recommended the extended version because it is slightly better structured and it gave such a great and unique opening to the film that would've made the end battle make much more sense. The opening brought us back in the past with us seeing a feathered T-Rex (which supposedly is the OG Rex we see in the first JP and World Movies that would later be cloned and created 65 million years later) and a Giga fighting with the aftermath of the fight having the Rex being defeated. This initial scene was perfect it gave the end battle a somewhat rematch between the 2 species 65 million years in the making. The initial prolouge scene was originally intended to be in the official cut of the movie but was cut out of the official version with only the extended version having added it back in. Even in the extended version, in the end battle scene, if u pause on the shots of the Rex laying defeated everytime it thunders for a split milli-second the shot goes back with the Rex having slight feathers and the background changes to 65 million years ago in the past giving a somewhat flashback memory from the past.The extended version also gave a better insight understanding of the original intent of the locusts project before it became a somewhat disaster. Also speaking of Dodgson, I'm surprised u guys didn't catch that the CEO of Biosyn in this movie is the same guy that hired Dennis Nedry from the first movie to steal the embryos from the original Jurassic Park. Dennis nedry did say in the first movie one of the most famous lines "We've got Dodgson here". Biosyn had always existed since the first JP movie with Dodgson's first small appearance. If u guys r wondering how Dodgson retrieved the barbasol can u guys will have to watch the animated Netflix series Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous to find that out. This movie has 2 references from that animated show such as the neural implants that Biosyn uses to control and herd the dinosaurs and the barbosol can being retrieved. Finally I also get why the ending didn't feel right. The first movie talked about how dinosaurs and humans cannot coexist cuz it would be a total disaster with the dinosaurs wiping out many of the modern species and being a threat to humanity. This movie however decides to ignore all that and go with dinosaurs, humans, and modern wildlife living together happily ever after which totally contradicts the main message that the original had established. I really wished people would've seen the original/extended version of the movie as it was slightly better paced with some important context to take note of.
This is my ranking of the movies so far:
Jurassic Park: 10/10
The Lost World: 9/10
Jurassic Park 3: 4/10
Jurassic World: 8/10
Fallen Kingdom: 7/10
Dominion (Theatrical Cut): 5/10
Dominion (Extended Cut): 6/10
Fun fact: The funny computer guy with the glasses from the first Jurassic World Lowery Cruthers was supposed to appear in this movie but he was cut out due to the actor already working on other projects and having busy schedule.
Agreed
You literally said everything I was thinking and wanting to write.
I watched this dumpster fire in the movie theater and couldn't believe they drug it out so long. Nostalgia factor wasn't there, plot was there and lost and the "bad guy" was so disappointing that I couldn't deal with it. I felt emotion 3 times total. 2 of sadness and 1 of tense fear for her when the bird dino was above her in the water. sigh. Could have been so much better.
No lol, there is nothing good about this film. It is a trainwreck. Convoluted plot, bad acting, bad writing and unmemorable in every single way. They should have stopped this series at Jurassic park 2. The third was awful and the IP was dropped for a good reason. The rebooted series was fairly ok wit hthe first one but bottomed out by the third.
@@charg1nmalaz0r51 exactly!
Out of all the ways they could have ended it, this was definitely one of them.
Fun fact: You can't really recreate "giant bugs". Their size was a consequence of the higher levels of oxygen in the atmosphere in the prehistoric times, since their circulatory system adapts the whole body to said concentration. If you made such a giant bug today, it would die because of lack of air. We still have some big bugs, but you can't recreate such massive ones.
The fact my husband had to tell me-
Dotson was in the first movie for a brief time.
"Dotson, we've got dotson here! See ,no body cares" he gave the guy ,who also died by dino poison, the shaving cream canister and bag of money to switch sides. So the entire (surviving ) cast made a comeback ❤
Which just makes me want to watch the first movie all over again ❤

I love that they made Therazinosaurus like an anteater: basically blind and homicidally violent with anything that might be a threat. I also loved that the a significant amount of the action revolved around dinosaur poaching and a dinosaur wet market.
It's also nice that instead of offering a pat overall solution, the movie leaves humanity with no alternative but to adapt to endemic dinosaurs in ecosystems worldwide. The whole series kinda functions as an allegory for climate change now.
Also: Owen's "hand thing" is more Crocodile Dundee's hand thing.
Stella is correct that the chief villain was definitely a caricature of Steve Jobs and the entire Apple culture.
You mean Tim Cook.
Yeah, that definitely was NOT Dodgson from either novels.
Fun fact the reason that the dinosaur with big claws was following Claire is that that dinosaur is very territorial
It's blind, and responds to sound...
@@eragon400 it’s half blind
The therizinosaurus
Unpopular opinion but I like the clone storyline with Maise Lockwood. It helps to add an extra layer of morality and her journey of self discovery makes a lot of sense. Which btw is probably the reason behind her choice to save the dinos in the last movie. Anyway dinosaur movies...if you want a comedy there's Land of the Lost with Will Ferrell.
I loved the story line in Fallen Kingdom; I thought it made perfect sense.
Here... not so much. too many weird retcons for me.
I hated it but I hated it more when in this movie they never address the fact that she screwed over the ecosystem problem putted multiple species in danger and that lot of people died because of her.All because "they're alive".
@@darkastre8178 Not directly addressed you're right. Although they do mention those issues in the beginning part of the movie which Maise is definitely largely responsible for. On the flip side, many of the dinosaurs were already sold and the cloning tech released. So some of those dinosaurs were not freed by her.
Still like I said it really adds a layer of moral questionability.
@@kevinbecker4327 they were sold but didn't leave yet and were most likely still in the basement even if we talk about about the cloning recipe.She let the dinosaur out in the wild and is directly responsible for multiple people's death but the movie act like isn't responsible for this big event.
@@darkastre8178 Even if you see the number of people kille by dinosaurus in one year more people are still killed every years in car accident yet people drive them regartless.
it's a very quick "blink-and-you-miss-it" moment, but dr. grant still has the resonating chamber he had in JP3 in his tent, and you could see it briefly.
he also doesn't have the raptor claw because if you remember in the first movie, he threw it out of the tree he was in with tim and lex.
the theri is also only one of the dinosaurs mixed into the indominus' makeup.
along with the giga.
The sail-backed animals in the cave are Dimetrodons ( a type of pelycosaur that went extinct before dinosaurs were even a thing). The cave scene was an homage to the 1959 film 'Journey To The Center Of The Earth'. In that movie, iguanas with sails glued to their backs were used and made to look gigantic.
The tyrannosaurus, named rexy, is the very same from the very beginning and she has been there in most movies. She’s the og and I personally think one of the best characters of the series
That is the issue. They turned the dinosaurs into characters, they are not supposed to be characters, they are threats.
Fun fact, Biosyn has always been there. They were Ingen's competition, and the ones who sent Nedry to steal the embryos. They're never really mentioned in the movies, but have a much more prominent presence in the 2 books. The current CEO in the film is actually the same guy that met Nedry in Costa Rica (recast, though).
what i find most conflicting are the facts surrounding both Maisie and her "mom". for one thing, in Fallen Kingdom they said that Maisie's "mom" was killed in a car crash, but then in Dominion she died of a genetic disorder. another is who actually created Maisie, in Fallen Kingdom it was said that the father missed his daughter and had her cloned, but then in Dominion the "mom" did it herself before she passed. just some things that i find confusing....
I think it was the mom,and we heard Elli mills say that to Claire and Owen,maybe mills didn't actually knew who cloned her,he just knew that she was a clone and maybe he assumed that Lockwood did it.
This was addressed with Benjamin Lockwood covering up Maisie’s true origins to protect Charlotte’s integrity. He took the brunt of Hammond’s wrath so she didn’t have to.
@@rhysgarner8677 Hammond was dead about ten years before Maisie was born in 2007ish. Hammond and Lockwood split because Lockwood intended to move the InGen tech into the realm of human application and Hammond felt it was immoral, the "unholy thing" that Lockwood did.
@@davedaugherty86 It was explained in Fallen kingdom that they split because of his human cloning. That was the great unholy thing that Lockwood was supposed to have done
@@davedaugherty86 “She used her father's genetic technology in an attempt to create trials of creating a clone child of herself to give birth to. When Hammond found out about Charlotte's intentions, he furiously declares this to be "unholy" as he morally opposes human cloning. However, Charlotte refused to give up her dream of having a child and Lockwood defended Charlotte's actions, which caused both Lockwood and Hammond to end their partnership, with Benjamin residing at his manor in seclusion.[1]”
I feel like the Jurassic World Franchise as a whole but especially this Last movie can be summed up with "Your Producers were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should"
So, some facts I wanna spill just to clear some context and provide info on:
-The T-Rex was the original from the first movie, Rexy. In the Extended Version of the movie there is a prologue with her in the past, 65 Million years ago, the original rex she was cloned from. That rex was killed by a wild Giganotosaurus, then had a mosquito drink its blood. So the end fight of this movie is killing the Giganotosaurus is like her getting revenge on her ancestors death.
-The dinosaur with the long claws is Therizinosaurus, a herbivorous dinosaur related to T-Rex found in Asia. It's commonly believed that this dinosaur is aggressive and territorial, which it's behavior is practically ten fold in the movie given it's blind.
-The villain of this movie, Lewis Dogson, is the same guy that gave the barbasol can to Nedry in the first movie. So him being killed by Dilophosaurus is pretty ironic.
-The cave animals are Dimetrodons, which are actually NOT dinosaurs. They are older than dinosaurs and are a class of prehistoric animals called synapsids, or Mammal-like reptiles. The animal in the Malta Arena, the lil creature with the tusk, is a Lystrosaurus, which is the same as a Dimetrodon. Lystrosaurus was one of the very few creatures that survived the Permian Extinction, which wiped out 90% of all life on earth.
-The feathered raptor on the ice is a Pyroraptor. They're now believed to be related to another raptor called Austroraptor, which were fishing raptors adapted to an aquatic environment, pretty ironic because of the name. If I'm correct it was named after an incident that occurred in a museum, which I think got caught on fire.
The one she mistakenly called a "-Mimus" is actually a completely different genus of Dinosaur. That creature is Therizinosaurus, one of the most oddball Dinosaurs that ever lived. Its name means "Scythe Reptile", after those massive claws which were originally thought to be the ribs of a giant TURTLE (they're about 30 long), and even though it's a Theropod like T-Rex and the Raptors, it and its kind have actually given up eating meat and evolved to become plant-eaters instead (it's generally thought those claws would be used to pull down branches, even though they could still deliver very nasty wounds to attacking predators). And fun fact about this particular Therizinosaurus: This one in the film is actually blind, and is navigating its world via echolocation.
Stella's eye roll had me laughing for a few minutes 😅😅
Drama queen.
I think a big part of the problem with this too-long movie is that you don't really feel any tension throughout it -- because you never feel like they have the cojones to kill off any character you like. You know they won't kill off any of the original stars (Ian, Alan, Ellie) or the new stars (Claire, Owen), or the kid. And they didn't give you any new likable characters to fret over. There are a couple new good guys (the pilot, the mole), but they're never in any real danger. So the end feels like a slog because there are no real stakes. The only time I was a little worried is when Ian got separated from the rest during the Giganautosaurus encounter. The only character killed in the last half of the movie is Dodgson. They didn't even have the guts to kill Dr. Wu, who was basically the villain of the entire franchise. In contrast, JPI killed off sympathetic characters left and right (the hunter, the poor lawyer, Samuel L. Jackson), and JPII had the devastating death of that poor guy who was trying to save Ian and the rest.
The other thing that bugged me was that Alan Grant was really cool and capable in JP I and III, and in this one he's sort of the butt of the joke, wandering around following everyone else and not really being helpful at all. It's a shame.
Why do they think that clones need to be exactly the same as the original? Even with how intelligent they are , clones mean that they have the same gene nothing different, but each experience makes them unique and different
Fun Fact: The 2 T.Rexes that meet Rexy at the end are the couple from The Lost World.
It's really crazy because the chasing scene doesn't have a BGM untill the end, so you only listen to the vehicles and the sound of the thumps of dinosaurs running, in the cinema it was crazy because it made me hold my breath and have even more of the impression of being chased by them.
This wasn't a terrible movie. In fact, it's got some of the BEST designs (I LOVE the Pyroraptor) and has some of the best use of practical effects in the series. But they still missed a LOT of opportunities that would've made the movie SO much better (not to mention how many good scenes they CUT from the final version).
The biggest flaw is that the movie didn't focus on the idea of dinosaurs living all over the world. The news report at the beginning of the movie was really well done, and I was hoping to see the movie go with that more, but they didn't... I liked how they ended up in the sanctuary at the end, but I wished the movie focused more on getting them there and how the world's dealing with them. Not to mention, I wish they could've tied in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous to this movie more, which I think you guys would really like!
Overall, Dominion isn't terrible, but it's definitely near the bottom for me, at least the theatrical version. The extended cut is MUCH better!
At the beginning when he asked “what do you want to see in the movie?” Notice how none of them said locusts
Remember they explained in the first movie that they used frog dna to replace missing links and those types of frogs can switch sex to ensure the continuation of the species in a same sex environment
That crabbing boat at the beginning is the Saga, captained by Jake Anderson, from the reality tv show Deadliest Catch. I would have loved to hear him swear up a storm when that dinosaur stole his crabbing pot.
At the time I didn't know Jake Anderson was captain but I did know it had been on deadliest catch
i liked the ending where the animals today are with the dinosaurs. thought that was personally cool seeing how they’re in a way similar. the movie overall i did like but there were some stuff that fumbled a bit. i like it because my kid likes it too. my husband on the other hand? yeah he nitpicked every little thing despite us seeing the extended version that gives more information. i told him it was just a movie nevertheless and there are some things that would leave us scratching our heads a bit 😅
great reaction though everyone! it made my morning! i was looking forward you all seeing this film! ❤️

In 20 years I look forward to the next trilogy, Jurassic Planet. Humanity has spread to the stars and dedicated a whole planet to being a dino habitat. Shennanigans ensue. T-Rexes fighting stars, Velociraptors flying starfighters, the clone of Alan Grant floating in a space suit in the crosshairs of an indo-raptor piloting a ship saying "don't move".
You know what's especially funny about both the Quetzalcoatlus AND the Dimetrodon? This is their debut on-screen, but they've been a part of JP lore since the first film came out. They've even had official JP TOYS since the first film came out!
Good things came from this movie too, like the OG and the new characters came together formed a team of survivors and they survived till the end like they always do, Kayla and Ramsay happened, Owen, Clarie and Maisie became a family that happened, Henry's redemption happened and Beta happened, Blue's daughter that's was sweet.
Props to Stella for that Quetzalcoatl reference!
BioSyn is the original competing company against InGen in the Jurassic Park books. Dodgson's actor was replaced from the first Jurassic Park (who met Nedry with that Barbasol can). That actor (Campbell Scott) was also Andrew Garfield's dad in Amazing Spider-Man series. When I watched this with friends, they keep saying he looked like Tim Cook, (current CEO of Apple) so it's the usual corporate villain archetype. :))
For all of these movie's flaws, I mostly enjoyed it for the reunion of the OG with the new gen, and NO ONE in the OG was killed or character assassinated for the sake of "passing the torch" as most movies are so adamant nowadays (looking at you, Disney). And much like everyone else, I'm glad Alan and Ellie are finally together after 3 decades.
Funny you should mention Apple company because when I saw the movie at the theater when it first came out, I thought the guy reminded me completely of Steve Job. The actor is actually the son of George c Scott and Colleen Dewhurst, both famous actors on their own.

Therizinosaurus. Aggressive herbivore from Mongolia.
The claw was first discovered (though at first we thought it was a ribcage of a new type of extinct turtle). Then we found the claw with an arm and was thought of as a predator. Later, we find out it's a herbivore. Though sometimes we nickname it the vegetarian T.Rex.
Honestly the end moral for me is less directed at the dinosaurs but, in general for all animals. Like in order for human survival on this planet we are going to NEED to coexist with the world around us.I also believe that the change in purpose of these movies is necessary because at first it was answering the childhood question "Should we bring back dinosaurs?" And the answer was "no". Then with the Jurassic World movies it changes the question from a "should" to a "why". And then in the first Jurassic World it was saying "hey, these creatures are living, breathing animals" bringing us back to remember that the real animals around us are living not just tools for human gain. The last two for the Jurassic World era are just saying "whatever we do has humans have dire consequences. And if we do continue, WE have to deal with no matter what.". Overall the Jurassic's are saying people cannot play god, we are too complex and the world around us is too complex for us to understand. In order to play god.
I mostly agree. I feel like one of the messages in all of the films (to varying degrees) is that "humanity" is the problem and its ego needs to be taken down a few notches by feeling the repercussions rather than trying to erase them.
one of the few that gets the message, bravo
Fun fact - The Therizinosaurus couldn’t see Claire because it’s actually blind show by the white eye. When an eye is white it’s normally covered by something meaning it can’t see very well if at all.
Yes, it has Astigmatism that's why it's white.
Actually Biosyn was Ingen's competition. They were the one Nedry was trying to get the Dino embryos for in the first movie

It was explained in the first Jurassic Park movie by Grant and the kids after they stumbled upon the hatched eggs after Tim got out of the tree. all the dinosaurs are female, and how when they were created their genes were mixed with frogs. Some frogs can change their gender if one gender if overpopulated to create balance, which is what the dinosaurs have been doing in order to breed. That is how Blue became a mom. She pretty much cloned herself which also happens in real life. But it also brings the genders back around as when that happens in real life, the 'offspring/clones' are female and usually cannot reproduce but as Ian Malcome said, ' Life finds a way'.
Also the thing that follows Claire after she gets out of the plane crash is a herbivore and is called a Therizinosaurus aka Tickle Chicken cause of it's long claws. XD
You guys should definitely watch the extended version. Even though it's not great, it adds much more context and is better overall.
It is great
Maybe I have an unpopular opinion, but I loved this movie. I loved having the OG characters and the new franchise characters all together and working together. Plus the new characters, like the pilot and the biosyn guy that was with the good guys were great additions. 🦕 🦖 ❤
Same
This film si good. The critics is stupid
Definitely unpopular, it is by all accounts a terrible movie with a bloated cast, contrived plot without any real sense and no actual point to be made by the end of it.
But the effects do look cool, and we did get to see a therizinosaurus. So it's not terrible, it's just a bad movie.
@@not_loriz6131Thank you don’t listen to the critics see it for yourself

Lol I love how they brought up a blind dinosaur/echolocation after they already saw it but didnt realize it LOL.
Dodgson was in the first film who hired Dennis Nedry. I don't think this film was bad people think it was and at least they didn't kill our original trio.
Dodson was the man from Jurassic park 1 who was paying Denis Nedry to smuggle out embryo's the one with the Babersol shaving foam that was given to Nedry at the Café
Why didn’t we ever see what happened to the Barbersol can?
@@nsasupporter7557 Dodgson actually has it with him on this movie

Well how did he retrieve it?
@westutterforever686 apparently, in the Camp Creaceous series, there is an episode that shows how the shaving cream can was found.
Ian Malcolm the gentleman, asking for consent before touching her blouse lol so cute 😂 I feel like they just let Jeff Goldblum ad lib most of his lines.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ! It’s honestly still a shock with where they decided to go with the storyline.
If you notice, Alan, Ellie and Ian are wearing the same clothes they wore in the first movie
In the original book, it was implied that the dinosaurs had had made it off the island and found a way to survival in the world. Being a horror book, the ending of Jurassic Park was meant to be foreboding as it implied that the dinosaurs were going to eventually retake the Earth and cause humans to be the ones to go extinct.
The World movies retired to revive that concept, but sadly they fell flat as they shied away from what should have been the apocalypse Michael Crichton alluded towards in favor of a poorer version of "save the whales."
Could have been amazing. Imagine the Jurassic World were humanity is being hunted to extinction. Genetic companies like Biosyn, Manticore, and the remnants of InGen either working a way to hold the dinosaurs at bay as they develop something like an engineered/revived disease to kill them off, or even trying to bring the fight to them as they go all in on killer hybrids. Maybe bring into canon some of the old toylines, like the Chaos Theory Hybrids into play.
So many possibilities, yet they went for the safe route.
13:20 correct.
27:47 just so you know, all 4 Atrociraptors survived. what became of them after the chase is unknown.
30:23-30:26 think of Charlotte and Blue's DNA as a chain with a faulty link that would ultimately break it. Maisie and Beta's DNA are basically that same chain, but the faulty link is replaced with a new one.
as for the locusts, Wu needed Maisie and Beta's DNA so that he could understand how the process i tried to explain worked, so that he could create a faulty link to add to the locust DNA (he said that the locusts aren't dying, but spreading. he's trying to prevent global famine behind Dodgson's back).
not sure if i explained myself; i did my best.
35:37 Therizinosaurus Cheloniformis; not related to Ornithomimids in any way. it's a herbivorous Maniraptoran.
some herbivores are very territorial. there's rarely such a thing as a "gentle giant".
37:50 that was Pyroraptor Olympus, a raptor from southern France and northern Spain (not Greece, like i once assumed).
41:51 Dimetrodon; NOT a dinosaur, but a Synapsid. it's more related to us, simply put.
43:00 correct.
43:01 the same
46:24 favourite clip in the entire film! also Dragon Breath.
49:49 girls find bugs disgusting, Ian; it's not that simple for them to just walk across the room when there's, say, a Cockroach or House Centipede.
50:02-50:04 which is ironic considering that back in Jurassic Park Ian was the one who guided Ellie all the way to the generator in the maintenance shed.
54:22 the Giga didn't deserve this. all it did was defend its home; and it got killed unjustly. R.I.P. Giganotosaurus.
my favorite part from you guys is where the jump scare with dimetrodon, and I got all four of you laugh out loud .41:41
This is not the end for the Saga.
It's been confirmed that there will be 3 more films in the franchise, with Bryce Dallas Howard returning as a director to the new series of films that will released in 2025.
However, none of the cast will be returning to the series. Frank Marshall, producer, said that this might happen sooner rather than later.
I don't think it was confirmed she was directing one. I thought I remembered seeing her as a *possible* name to helm one of the movies because of her work on Mando and connection with the Jurassic franchise.
I'd love the choice, but again, I don't remember this being confirmed.
I hope not. This plot needs to die.
nothing has been confirmed what are you talking about?
The little Creature that looked at Owen in the ring is a Lystrosaurus!
Its NOT a Dinosaur!
1:11 I'm now going to think of this every time I see a Universal movie.
What disappointed me so much was that the previous movie promised us "dinosaurs are out there" and the beginning of the movie still reminded us that dinosaurs are all around the world, but the majority of the film still took place in what is essentially a park.
except all the parts were we see dinos all around the world... the movie gives that previosu statement
My self and a group of friends saw this for my birthday (released two days before). I always remember at 41.43 my boyfriend sitting next to me grabbed my hand almost having a panic attack. Turns out he thought that dinosaur looked way too much like a Komodo dragon which is his number one phobia.
Seems you didn’t remember Dodgson. He was the guy who hired Nedry to steal the embryos in the very first movie. And they made him so. Damn. Boring! At the very least he got a poetic death
Therizinosaurus was the big claw herbivore. It was blind.
Fun(?) easter egg. The other two T-rexes at the end are apparently the Buck and the Doe from Lost World, which makes sense since they said a lot of the Biosyn dinos were from Sorna. Nothing on Junior tho. It’s been long theorized Junior was the T-rex that was killed by the Spino in 3, but that’s never been confirmed
51:27 his death is a nice callback to the first movie in the franchice

I loved all the movies so much and seeing the OG's again makes the movie so much better.
Given that JW 2 and 3 are dreadfully shitty movies, I don't see how watching a masterpiece like the first JP would make them better. On the contrary. The comparison is painful. On the other hand, it started going downhill with The Lost World, and JP3 was almost as bad as JW3.
💯
What really makes NO SENSE to me is: HOW the F*ck did all the land based dinosaurs cross the oceans and spread all over the world? Did they take a plane ride? Did they hop onto boats? HOW?! 😆
The only way my poor brain could answer that was maybe the few buyers? Or maybe time enough of people doing black Markey stuff, lost control and they continued to reproduce?
Ehhh... I still have the same complaint but it's the best I personally came up with.
@@PestilentAllosaurus Yeah I had some similar theories... It was just something that immediately broke the immersion/feeling of realism when I started watching it. I know it's just a dumb 'adventure' movie meant to entertain, but still, it annoys me.

I did not like this movie when I first saw it. After having seen it again, it has started to grow on me. There are things I didn't pick up the first time. It was definitely better the second time after I knew what to expect, I enjoyed it a lot more.
(At 13:00) I only got 7 words to describe what he's thinking:
"I'm getting too old for this shit!"
Byosin is the rival company to ingen and dodgson was the one who told nedry the fat guy with glasses to steal dino embroies
I am not sure how you guys felt about the Malta segment. But for me it felt like it was taped on to have a longer runtime. As for the Dinosaurs, well they look great as usual even if they aren't paleo accurate. I felt sorry for the Giga because it really wasn't being a villain, it was just being an animal. The one other thing I have to comment on with them however is. The Therizinosaurus is not meant to stab with it's claws, they are meant for pulling branches and to slash at predators. They would have broken immediately when Rexy pushed the Giga onto them.
i love that malcom, allen and sally are wearing almost the same clothes that they were wearing in the og movie..atleast malcom in his intro scene..the black leather jacket ..brings back memories
My favourite parts were the motorcycle scene and when Claire was shown jumping on buildings.
The Freddy Krueger-looking dinosaur is Therizinosaurus, a herbivour theropod from the same grup ( = clade) of tyrannosaurids and dromaeosaurids. It is blind, that's why it is cautious around Claire, because it doesn't recognize the smell. The deer was a stranger in its territory, that's why the claw strike. And, yes, it's an herbivore, and we shouldn't be surprised herbivores can be dangerous. They are dangerous indeed! Unfortunately, nowadays dinosaur movies depict carnivorous as the BBEG whils herbivores are the "safe kind and calm cows". Quite the opposite. A predator who has eaten is "safe" to approach, an herbivour is a clock-bomb, randomly reacting to external agents. I'm still looking forward for a movie where sauropods or even duck-billed dinosaurs (hadrosaurids) are dangerous.
Ah, the tiny cute-looking animal with the tusks in Malta arena is a dicynodont, actually one of our ancestors (a synapsid which lived in the Triassic, totally unrelated to dinosaurs) as the animals in the cave, Dimetrodon, also synapsids... NOT dinosaurs ;)
Also, let me say that I love Stella engagment with dinosaurs
Fun fact there was a video that said that even if dinos never went exist we still could coexist in peace with small medium dinosaur living in the outsides while most big ones living in protected areas like how we coexist with eagles,bears,elephants, wolves,lions,tigers , sharks and other big animals in our world.
Yeah but how sure can we be if that?
Maybe with the small and medium dinos that live outside like birds,squirrels,rabbits deer or coyotes while most of the bigger dinos would be living in areas safe from poaching,animal trafficking and human/ animal conflict and even some small friendly dinos could have been like house pets like dogs,cats or birds.
And you 4 should see Movies from blue sky and cartoon Saloon and skydance animation like Rio Wolfwalkers Luck Amazing Maurice and Maya and the three! IM serious you should see it!
The truth is, not all the dinosaurs in the movie are female. But most of them are female. The director said that there was also a male dinosaurs in the park. but has prevented them from breeding during the park's opening. Take, for example, some of the dinosaurs that changed gender in the first movie. and some dinosaurs transported from isla sorna during the construction of Jurassic World also has a male.
Dinosaurs that has African frog DNA are able to change gender to mate when the opposite gender is absent from the same species in the herd. But for a dinosaur that is the only one of its species, it cannot change gender. Take, for example, the original T-Rex aka Rexy. She was the only T-Rex on the island at the first place. So she was female all her life. because she had no reason to change gender. because there are no pairs to mate. But when she meets Buck and Doe at the end of this movie. She can't change gender either. Because Rexy is too old for breeding. And Buck is already a male T-Rex.
You guys are gonna LOVE the pitch meeting for this movie 😂
You're probably not gonna see this because I'm a month too late, but here comes a Fun Fact: David Attenborough explained in the "Prehistoric Planet" series (Apple+, really good if you like watching dinosaurs) that actually, Raptors did have feathers, but as this was discovered just a few years ago (after Jurassic World 1 came out), they couldn't change Blues appearence from one movie to the other.
This is my son's all time favourite movie! Which is surprising to me since I would have thought this one would be less appealing to a kid than the first Jurassic World (his former favourite) but he just loves it! Sometime I think we need to not overthink these sorts of movies and just enjoy them for what they are the way a kid does - excitement, action and DINOSAURS! 😄
Totally agree! This isn’t one of my favorites from the series, but there’s so many cool moments and visuals, and I love the characters, I can easily overlook the nitpicky things.
(At 13:50) Blue was the Alpha, which is why her daughter's name is Beta.
I enjoyed this movie the old cast returned callbacks to the original a great movie😊
You guys could watch "Jurassic World: Battle At Big Rock" it's a 10 minute short film available on UA-cam. There's also the Dominion prologue which is the first 5 minutes of the movie(that you guys didn't see because it's in the extended cut). It's beautiful. Hope you guys check it out!

The neural implant and barbosal can we’re actually explained in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous seasons 4 & 5. Opinions on the show however very from great to terrible depending on how they feel about the entire story. However those 2 seasons generally have a “terrible” rating due to certain aspects they introduce.
I liked in all the Jurassic park/world movies that the OG dinosaurs took out the newly bred genetically designed dinosaurs showing that nature fixes mistakes. It was cool towards the end at Biosyn the T-Rex walking by the circle copied the Jurassic logo.
While I'm somewhat let down that you watched the theatrical cut, considering its messy and that it's not the version the director wanted to release, I do appreciate you covering the movie altogether.
I have mixed feelings on JW: Dominion. It's not as bland and derivative as JPIII but it also doesn't feel like the final hurrah to the franchise that it could've (and should've) been. Characters didn't get closure that would've been more appropriate or fulfilling (Alan didn't get to meet the Pyroraptor which just never sat right with me). The Giganotosaurus and it's shoehorned rivalry with the Tyrannosaurus which was set up in the prehistoric prologue was so redundant, more so considering neither animals lived in the same time or place.
That being said, I appreciate the movie for reintroducing Lewis Dodgson and BioSyn, the locust plotline, though somewhat intrusive, was interesting and felt like a natural progression for the themes of genetic manipulation, and some scenes, especially the Therizinosaurus encounter, felt like something straight out of The Lost World. Michael Giachinno's music is also just as good as it has been for the last two movies. Makes sense since he's been involved with the franchise for a WHILE (his first gig was the PS1 game for The Lost World).
While I don't expect you to revisit this movie by reacting to the extended cut, I do think it's worth checking out just to see what Colin Trevorrow wanted to give us.
Great video all around though.
I know that like many other franchises that get stretched to so many movies, the latest additions do suffer a little bit. Somethings that would get people rolling their eyes. Some, absolutely dumb decisions along the way. But this movie has a small special something to me, this was the last movie that I went to see at the theater with my dad when he was sick and before we lost him.
And the fact that the movie wasn't all action and horror was something that we both could appreciate in the last opus. Thanks for watching one of my favorite franchise ever!
I actually liked this one. Very fun and enjoyable. A fun ride
I think my main issue with the film was the marketing was focused on bringing back Alan, Ian and Ellie and having them meet the current characters.... and then they didn't meet till the very end.
Once they did meet I am conflicted on what they did, I both loved and hated all the references to the original film, and I spent the entire time thinking "ah, I see what they did there!" I think it had so much potential, but was just too reliant on bringing back original characters to focus on the actual story. If they could have balanced both, this could have been a really good film.
People give this movie a lot of hate, but it wasn't the worst. I'm not saying it's a masterpiece, but I loved seeing the world they built with the black market, the humans having to work around dinosaurs, and heck those creepy bugs. Just a fun movie, not good but not awful
very true, there were plenty of pros and cons to the movie, and whether it was technically a good movie or not doesn't really matter. movies are, at their core, simply meant to entertain. and this one did its job
Yeah, I loved the movie for what it was
I loved it. There are worse movies.
I’m not one of those people, I enjoyed this movie
Finally! Awesome reaction! Poor Giganotosaurus didn't deserve it. It was acting like a normal animal, defending it's territory...

Feels like Chris Pratt was a producer or something in this movie, his character is WAY TOO COOL I roll my eyes every time.
