Actually, he is fat in the book. He grows thinner as he starts spending more and more time online thanks to a workout regime or something but for the first third of the book at least he is overweight. He mentions it being one of his insecurities about his body.

I actually haven’t the slightest idea how Miles Morales got his powers, so I agree with this sarcastic comment in a non-sarcastic way.

Well there’s Peter Porker of Earth-8311, the Spectatular Spider-Ham

Absolutely disgusting scene. There was no way the movie could have won me back after that, but it definitely didn’t even try.

It was really unnerving. Seemed to fit the theme of “women who aren’t maternal deserve to be punished (by condescending sisters, macho Chris Pratts, or dinosaur Rube Goldberg machines).”

It would have maybe worked if they gave the death to the main bad human. But, her? Were we supposed to hate the character and think she was getting a deserved comeuppance with a laborious death? Why? Because she was distracted and lost focus on the kids that the female hero ditched and forced on her?

THANK YOU. I mean, damn. At least in Jurassic Park, when Gennaro the slimy lawyer got eaten, I cheered because he was the worst. Poor Zara, she might have been a bad babysitter but there’s no way she deserved that.

Glad to hear I am not the only one who *hated* that scene. I get its a disaster movie and people will die, but it seemed so unnecessarily cruel.

I did a search for I Love You, Daddy torrents. The results were...uhhhh...not what I thought they’d be.

Yes I fully endorse “an extremely petty breakdown of...” becoming a weekly feature.

Thank you, Sean. Please do more of these.

Agreed. There’s so much dumb per second squeezed into this that it makes my head hurt. Plus, it seems mean. The premise seems to be “We know you love the dinosaurs so much that we’re going to make our characters rescue them all this time.....except we’re actually going to make you watch as we kill all of them.”

I normally have low expectations for dumb meathead blockbusters, but watching this movie made me angry. It was like every character had undergone a partial lobotomy on the helicopter ride to the island.

Right on. He’ll put it on his website and I’ll torrent it six hours later.

For wanting to see a crappy movie by someone who practices sexual misconduct?

Yes.
