What went wrong?
the jew didnt direct
>>217466585Rexcucks still seething
>>217466585Someone said>hey. let's make a totally unneeded sequelMany such cases.
jp1 -> jp3 -> world -> jp2
>>217466585It it looks that bad by the end of 3, how much worse would the picture look if we included the JW films?
>>217466585It didn't need sequels.
>>217466585All three have their merits. The original is obviously the best but despite how short the third movie is it has excellent pacing and tells a complete story. It also has some decent thematic messaging about communication in relationships and a handful of decent/memorable lines of dialogue. The pteranodon scene in the cage is almost up there with the RV scene from Lost World and the kitchen scene from the original.
>>217466585It's a concept that doesn't lend itself to sequels. It's about a theme park with dinosaurs and they get out. How do you do that again? Jurassic World had a decent take that, what if the park was successful for years and then a dinosaur got out. Of course, that movie has to be full of plot conveniences and stupid characters or there'd be no movie. A company that is able to make animals that look like dinosaurs would not give up. That is a power that makes money. How do you tell an adventure story around that concept, without just copying the first one? There's not a lot of stories about theme parks or zoos to borrow structure from.
>>217466585Anyone who thought sequels to Spielberg movies were a good idea don't remember the sheer terribleness of the Jaws sequel trilogy (2, 3-D, and the Revenge.)
>>217467500The first three are pretty reasonably different1: dinosaurs break out from a zoo2: privately contracted mercenaries/poacher types capture dinosaurs for a different zoo3: random couple tries to find their son in an abandoned dinosaur research lab island that existed to breed dinosaurs for the first zoo
I prefer three over two desu
>>217466772Correct. Or maybe more likeJP1 >>> JP3 >>>>>> JW >>>>>>>>> utter shit >>>>>>>> Lost World.
>>217466585Simple, the first Jurassic Park film should've been a standalone film. As usual, Hollywood's greed fucks everything up.
