They really tried to make the audience feel specific things… I don't know if it was just me, but I didn't really feel any connection between any of the characters (both human and dinosaur), so it was a bit lacking. I was extraordinarily pissed off at one of the deaths, because it just seemed uncalled for and…

It was a bit middle-of-the-road if I'm going to be honest… It gave me the same vibe as I got from JP3 (big on effects but low on substance with some cringeworthy moments), but on a bigger scale. The nostalgia factor was definitely alive and kicking in the first half of the film, which I really enjoyed. I'm seeing it…

*cue Deliverance banjo music*

They shall henceforth be referred to as "battocks"!

Okay, so I just saw it. If you have any questions at all, then I'll be happy to help you out…

Okay, so just got out from seeing the film… Lex and Tim are still the ultimate JP kids…

Lol, they probably had their legal team find a way to reach that conclusion… the irony is delicious, try some!

I don't think we're at the level yet where a feathered dinosaur is as intimidating as a scaly one… Maybe they could've added an archaeopteryx aviary to the park to shut everyone up? Or even had some tourists in the film bitching about the lack of feathers and/or a tour guide explaining why no feathers… I used to lean…

I know this caused quite a scandal, but would you really have preferred the T-Rex stalking them throughout the whole movie instead? … *stops and considers*… sorry, I forgot where I was going with that thought! Anyway, they wanted a new big, bad dino and highlander rules applied… I'm sure I-Rex vs T-Rex screentime in…

I think I know the fight scene you're talking about, and I know what you mean: as if Sam Neill could knock William H Macy against a tree with a single punch! (hehehe)

And Tea Leoni could've been a crazy Russian femme fatale in charge of the team… I can see it all now: rather than the silly egg-scene at the end, she engages in a dominance battle with the alpha raptor and manages to kill it with her bare hands (*thickly accented* "no blades, claws only") which allows the team to…

Yep, they were initially in the prologue, but there was occasional snapbacks to it throughout the movie. Probably less than 5 minutes of screentime in total…

I'm pretty sure I just shortened my lifespan significantly while trying not to laugh out loud at this… maybe I should stop reading this board while I'm at work, but honestly when else do I have the time?

You need to forget "Alan!"… EVERYONE needs to forget "Alan!"… It was a dream, and not meant to be at all plausible. It was stupid, agreed, but it was not "real". The gymnastic antics in TLW, on the other hand, took place in the "real world". That doesn't make TLW a terrible film. Focus on the real issues of JP3,…

Yeah, there were a few issues with the whole pteranodon part. If they were still locked in the cage, why were they already out at the end of TLW? And where did all those human bones come from? If they weren't locked in, why bother showing that lame "the latch swings open!" shot at all? Some people say that they were…

Sounds like something I would've done in 1993… or even 2013, lol, who am I kidding?

I know right? That film nailed it on every level: script, art direction, set design, costume design, casting… Joel Schumacher is a modern-day Shakespeare! (now here's the part where I lay low hoping people got the sarcasm! :D)

No, no, no! Don't go into the film after having just watched the best film of the franchise! You'll be practically guaranteed not to enjoy it after that! Watch the full trilogy, that way you can be let down gently…

It wasn't GOOD necessarily… but nor was it the worst thing I've ever seen. And honestly, people need to stop focusing on the "Alan" raptor, cos that was just one guy's pseudo-PTS nightmare and isn't actually supposed to have been plausible. There were actual legitimate issues with the film, so focus on those! Plus…

Sporadically fantabulous!
