It's incredibly funny how no other dinosaur movies can touch these three.
How? They had muilti-million dollar budgets, cutting edge CGI and the biggest talent in the world working with an incredible story.The people who made those movies are unable to make movies like them anymore, either. Notice the immense drop off in quality after the third one following the fumbling and aimlessness nostaldiga memberberries the rest of them ended up having? It's cause Chrichton died.
>>222793281I never really understood why The Lost World is marketed as "the raptor one" when they're barely in the movie and get mogged by a little girl.
>>222793304Stan Winston also died and all the dinosaur designs went to utter shit afterwards.
>Title>Subtitle, Title>Title IIIi hate this
>>222793281I… would a lusty Argonian maid…
>>222793330I can forgive it because it's a bit more clever than your standard movie tittles.They could have easily just called TLW JPII but having it called the same name as an homage to Sir Doyle's work because it's about an island where dinosaurs are free roaming just seems correct.And JPIII is just cool because of the claw marks and the main dinosaur antagonists in it all have 3 (three) claws. I dunno, I think they're great for what they are. I'm probably autistic.
first Land Before Time and whichever sequel has the flower.Walking With Dinosaurs 3D if you watch the Cretaceous Cut on the Blu-ray (no voiceovers/dialogue/comedy, how it was originally intended).also those Ray Harryhausen dinopics by Hammer Films. some of my earliest boners (the csvegirls, not the dinos).
>>222793281I was mildly impressed with End of Oak Street for having actually dangerous dinos and killing off some characters. Then they press a giant reset button at the end and I wanted to throw something at the screen. Even gayer than having Spielbergian PG13 violence is pretending to have stakes and then undoing them.
>>222794023I heard it was woke, any truth to that?
>>222793307Yeah and the whole finale is an incoherent mess because they cut out the raptors that were supposed to be on the ship, so they could focus on T Rex in suburbia scenes. What killed the crew exactly?>den who was phone???
>>222794036Eh, they had the usual loser dad storyline and the mom is a bit girlbossy, and there's a couple of added diversity characters to add some browns to 1980s huwite suburbia. For 2026 it's not much to be outraged about in that department. After they arrive in the past there's not much time for them to sit and talk about their homolust, because it keeps the pace up pretty well. But like I said the ending undermines everything completely.
>>222793307It's weird to think about because the first and third are the actual raptor movies, third probably more than the first.
I appreciate the later films including dinosaurs I really like.
>>222794225Too bad about the shitty design.
>>222793307They are very prominent in the book and the main antagonists in the final act...well that actually applies to both books.
>>222793392>but having it called the same name as an homage to Sir Doyle's work because it's about an island where dinosaurs are free roaming just seems correctIt's because the book is called The Lost World, you dolt.
>>222794435Which still applies, brainlet.
>>222793281just 1 's just 1 dude
>>222794446Both books/movies take place on an island. Do you have actual evidence it's a homage or is it just your headcannon?
>>222794323Yeah, could have used a bigger gut, smaller head, plantigrade feet, and upright posture, but you take what you can get. At least it's not covered with osteoderms like most of the JW dinosaurs.
>>222794471Retard-kun...
>>222794499Great argument
>>222794520Because there isn't one, it's self explanatory, but you just want to sperg about something, I guess. Have fun with that.
>>222794547The irony
>>222794561I know, you'll become self aware one day. Have a good one.
>>222794574Keep going. I'm sure you have one more snarky remark in you.
>>222793281>spinonigger including JP3 when it's the most dogshit of the first 3
Sam Neill must've had the easiest job in the world acting scared.
>>222794696Cope. It was always better than 2.
>>222793281
>>222793281It's incredibly funny how no other dinosaur movie can touch this one.
>>222794698That animatronic still looks so good.
>>222794756Would have been kino if they hadn't cut and burned 19 minutes of it for being too scary.
Is janny a featherfag or something
>>222794762The 2nd one would have been much better if it just adapted the book properly. Could've even been better than the 1st.
>>222794756This is the only correct answer.
>>222794756This and Disney's Dinosaur are the only dino kino that come close to Jurassic Park.
>>222794774Indeed. Really sad what happened to the little girl who did the voice for Ducky too. I guess the movie has its own little Poltergeist curse.
>>222793281>no other dinosaur moviesI could think of several ways to bring back interest. Here's oneThe Lost World (Arthur Conan Doyle)>Use modern VFX, tasteful dinosaur designs>Zero woke casting, main cast should be white. There will be black actors because the original novel also had them, but it won't be fucking Challenger or Roxton>Pure adventure, no subversive messaging, no irony
>>222794845It could work if they actually commit to the way dinosaurs were represented at the time as a period piece. I guarantee it wouldn't be as popular if it pushed for modern accuracy.
>>222794845>>Zero woke casting, main cast should be white. There will be black actors because the original novel also had them, but it won't be fucking Challenger or RoxtonWhy the fuck would I care about this in an animated film?
>>222794867This. If they did it along the lines of Kong 2005 it would probably work out great.
>>222793281What about King Kong, the Peter Jackson one?
>>222794888>animated filmHuh? No one said anything about that
>>222794323Wolverine
>>222794491This is the closest thing I can imagine to an actual Jurassic Park Theri design.
>>222795025That's the Theri from Speckles the Tarbosaurus aka Dino-King.
>>222795045Jesus how horrifying
>>222793281I lover Jurassic Park but I hate that it holds an unofficial monopoly over dinosaur media by scaring execs into refusing to even bother trying because most non-JP media bombs.
>>222795077The real issue is that most non-JP stuff bombs because it's shit.Nu-WWD, 65, Primal War, Oak Street, etc, all garbage. Even Jurassic World is shit, but it's only saving grace is that it's desperately hanging on the coattails of the first despite simultaneously trying to distance itself from it.
>>222794710If you have abysmal taste, sure
>>222795137the only worthwhile things about world are the two cartoons it spawned, camp cretaceous and chaos theorycc is decent until s4, then it almost immediately turns to shit, and chaos theory was pretty decent from what i saw but idk what s4 is like
>>222795182Don't I know it, I found myself actually enjoying the show up until S4, but stuck with it till the end just to see how bad it got. Fucking awful, never bothered with Chaos Theory.Just makes me wish I had gotten Chaos Effect as a kid, still pissed about it. Fuck you, Spielberg.
>>222794914Yes, Kong 2005 was pretty close to what I had in mind. Massive production values, no sugarcoating of the barbarity of natives, nightmarish creatures... Just don't cast Jack Black.>>222794986I think people consider it a King Kong movie first and foremost (which it should be) rather than a dinosaur one. But the dinosaurs and art design are still top tier; the artbooks still fetch a pretty penny and the V-Rex design is popular with third party toy manufacturers
>>222795153Weird way to spell perfect taste.
>>222795210I didn't realize they were all different colors
>>222795356Nah those are just different paint jobs of the same mould. They do have three different designs in the movie
>>222795210>>222795398I love the V. rex but I hate how it's practically ground zero for Jurassic World's shitty design ethos.
Lost World and III suck
>>222795461Yet only the first movie is better than them.
>>222793281Blue may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.
>>222795814I don't think you see it much in the other movies, but I love how their tails stand up like that in 3.Not for any perverted dinofucker reason, but I think it looks so aesthetically pleasing for some reason. It just looks cool and accentuates how nimble and speedy they are.
>>222794784It's weird because the 2nd book wasn't even a sequel to the first book, it was a sequel to the first movie. Ian Malcolm died in the first book.
>>222795210>>222795398The V-rex is fucking awesome, the xbone vidya version scared the daylights out of me as a kid.
>>222796037That game is so damn kino I can't stand it
>>222793281ENTER
>>222796037Holy fuck, memory lane.
>>222796061>Ewan *snooze* McGreggorNo
>>222793307it's just to give the covers variety. Chillax maaan
>>222796708No, I get it, but it's just kinda weird when you think about it.If we're being honest, JP should be the raptor one, TLW should be the T. rex one.
>>222795461I watched 3 again last week, it's basically a decent action movie with none of the philosophy, and with some very kino and memorable scenes
>>222796815Raptors are barely in JP1, not until the last 15 minsThey're both the Trex film really
>>222796914Hard disagree, the raptors are the bomb under the table for the whole movie, being the first dinosaur introduced and constantly built up and foreshadowed. The entire third act is theirs until the T. rex steals the show.
>>222796933I guess but still you don't even see one until 1h 40m in
>>222796953That's the magic of the first movie's writing. You don't see them much but their presence lingers throughout most of the movie. They're basically the final boss of Jurassic Park.
>>222796061Those dinosaur designs sucked so hard.I don't know what it is about paleofags wanting to make dinosaurs look ratty and weird.
Other dinosaur movies treat them like monsters instead of the animals that they were and behaved like when they were alive. That's the disconnect. Other movies don't invoke a sense of awe and wonder, like Grant seeing brachiosaurs to John Williams swelling musical score or quieter moments like coming upon a sick triceratops.
>>222797380The thing is Jurassic Park also lets them act like movie monsters when it fits. The raptors act like slasher villains and it's perfect for them.
>>222793281It saddens me that after JP2 they dropped the "multiple giant carno" gimmick>JP3 - Rex with sail!>JW1- Rex but smart!>JW2 - Super Raptor!>JW3 - Biggest Rex ever!!>JW4 - Rex but Mutant as FUCK!!
>>222793281Need a Carnosaur adaptation with gratuitous sex scenes and violence. The boat scene and the Deinonychus in the mansion with everyone getting tore limb from limb would be kino
>>222797460What? Are you suggesting that any of the Worlds would have been good if there was two of each of things you consider rexslop?
>>222797517It would elevate it from slop to schlock. At least try to be creative with your giant carnivores instead of "another version of rex".
>>222797539>try to be creative>by just doing TLW over and over and over againI don't even like the World films but this a pretty stupid complaint desu
>>222795927>I love how their tails stand up like thatheh gayy
>>222797514I wonder how much of this ended up influencing Jurassic Park?
>>222794845who's manly enough to play Challenger?
>>222797346>I don't know what it is about paleofags wanting to make dinosaurs look ratty and weird.It's a never ending grift. Just like when they look at bone turned rock and say things like its habitat and predatory strategies.
>>222793349>haha, um... I would actually FUCK a thing! isn't that weird? you are identical to every other teenager with a dick
>>222794225>>222794491I hate how they use dinosaurs I like then make them stupid. If you’re pretending to be an animal fag if two animals are fighting and another random animal shows up those two animals will turn on the newcomer every time. If the giga was fighting the therizine then the rex showed back up the therizine and giga would have turned against the rex, but somehow the animals in this film knew the writers intended the giga to be the antagonist character so they worked together to defeat him. Garboslop I regret watching.
>>222797405>slasher villains they were just acting like my cat when I let him outside
>>222799823Isn't it great when the dinosaurs you were looking forward to seeing the most in Jurassic Park one day are thrown into absolutely dogshit films and poorly executed in every way possible so now that's their legacy for the rest of their relevance in pop culture?I just fucking love it!
>>222799860Cats are evil so that checks out
>>222799990I mean that in earnest though. How do you think animals like a raptor might have lived? They spent 100% of their waking hours prowling around killing shit, piling up bodies, a wild fox will spend days during the summer killing as many unguarded goose hatchlings it can get its hands on and save them for later. It’s reddit to say “duh they’re evil movie villains” when all they do is sniff around looking for shit to kill exactly like any active predatory animal would, especially these things which were zoo animals that are now suddenly free.
>>222800027Yeah, of course it's realistic animal behavior to do things like throw around a grown ass man while being tazed and shot from all sides or hiding in the dark to wait for the perfect moment to pop out and go boo or to have carefully placed a severed arm in a high up place so when you pop out and go boo it will fall down and double scare her, how could I have forgotten?
>>222794036The dad is an alcoholic who lost his job and is hiding it from his family, and the mom has fantasies of abandoning her family. But the mom's flaws felt kind of softpedaled. The movie really felt like it was originally over 2 hours and cut down to 90 minutes, so I think there was more stuff with the mom that got cut.
>>222794471The T. rex rampaging through San Diego ending is based on the 1925 Lost World movie ending with the Brontosaurus rampaging through London.
>>222794023Idk why the humans in end of oak street were so pathetic. The neighborhood that gets teleported to 200 million years ago is huge, with hundreds of houses, but yere is literally 0 attemp to coordinate at all. There were no police, government leaders, or ex-military who would immediately try to organize people into a militia, or at least try to secure supplies? The whole place feels oddly like a ghost town right from the start.It also was pretty funny to me how overpopulated with animals it was. Like 800 of the biggest dinos ever are in this one small forest.
Pixar's the good dinosaur
>>222800104Yeah reddit you’re being disingenuous big time fuck off.Pitbulls will be mauling some old lady and you have 15 people beating them and stabbing them and they won’t let go.And wtf are you talking about the raptor just came around the bend and attacked when it saw her sitting there. It wasn’t staging a jump scare or whatever go back to fucking trans land or wherever pedocord you creeped out from.
>>222795061this looks beyond retarded
>>222795077>most non-JP media bombs.Did end of oak street bomb?
>>222797346The only designs I didnt like were the sauropods. I thought the rest looked good.
You may find this interestinghttps://youtu.be/1c3ZCLDLLdA
>>222800232>the arm tho
>>222800366Use your imagination it tore his fucking arm off as it dismembered him and the arm got wedged in the door it’s a movie.
>>222793307The raptor one fits the 1st film better imo because of the door scene and 'clever girl'. The t-rex rampaging in LA would work for Lost World.
>>222800232Pipe down, armchair Steve Irwin. Next you're gonna act like Jaws was realistic.You haven't watched that scene in a while because it's literally hiding behind some rubber tubing, there's no corner. Keep tard raging over the fact that creatures designed to entertain you do exaggerated and unrealistic things for the sake of the scene to keep you entertained.
>>222795981I like how the book had Muldoon actually know what he was doing and not die to the raptors using the exact hunting technique he fucking describes earlier in the movie.
>>222800504All of the deaths in Jaws that weren’t Quint’s were based on a real shark’s killing spree so now who’s the fucking idiot?
it still boggles my mind that these things were just walking around, existing, on the earth
>>222801471>on a real shark's killing spree>singularYou, apparently. Moving the goalpost away from the entire final act where it does the most movie monster shit of all time to make a non-point isn't helping your case, by the way.
>>222793281Mainly because nobody makes dinosaur movies.
>>222793281When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth has way better sfx than JP. The sfx in question was named Victoria Vetri, Playmate of the Year 1968.
>>222801773
>>222801792Actually won the Osric for sfx in 1971 IIRC.
The problem with dinoflicks is that they don't dare to treat them as pure horror. JP1 came the closest and is one of the reasons why it's so good.
>ctrl+f "sauropod sex scene" 0 resultsam I the only one who watched End of Oak Street? it was shit btw
>>222802050I have shitty dinosaur movie fatigue caused by Jurassic World continuing to rape the first movie.
>>222801792I miss when less well-known dinosaurs like Ceratosaurus, Chasmosaurus, and Allosaurus were the main stars of or had big appearances in dinosaur movies. Now it's 98% the stock popular dinosaurs and 2% something obscure we only see for a few seconds.
Why does Jurassic Park refuse to do anything with the Triceratops? It's the T. rex of herbivores yet it gets no love.
>>222802097I dont blame you. I saw the first JW with friends and we left saying almost that exact thing "I feel like we just watched our childhood get raped"fortunately I only had to see EoOS at the driveins before they played a decent movie
>>222794756
>>222795814What a slutty stance.
>>222793281Godzilla 1999 is a better JP movie than 3
>>222803211Now now, let's not start talking crazy.
>>222794766What animatronic?It’s a fucking dinosaur.I have seen the movie so many times and watched it first when I was a small child, and it is insane how fucking amazing she looks, for me it’s like there’s no disbelief to suspend, there is no oh that CG looks pretty good or it looks pretty bad, that’s a fucking dinosaur. Holy shit those guys at ILM were fucking wizards.
>>222803390Stan Winston was a master of his craft.
Alan
>>222793307The raptor scenes in the 2nd one were the pinnacle of the movie and mog the raptor scenes from the other two, until when the girl does gymnastics that was pretty gay
lollmao even
>>222804367No
>>222805126
Average Spino news:>Recent discoveries suggest that Spinosaurus had one eye, one leg, no arms, one ball with testicular cancer, couldn't swim properly, was blind, had an explosive diarrhea and was bullied by the river fish.Average T-Rex news:>Newest findings confirm that T-Rex had mastered all Martial Art styles, could use telepathic communications, stop time, and fought satan alongside Archangel Michael.
>>222793281>these three
>>222805193no for realit's not even a spielberg movie
