After all these years, that original theme still hits me in the feels. I thought it was amazing when I first heard it, just a great piece of music. And the way it is teased in these trailers just gives me chills.

Likely more akin to Crows or Ravens and so seems all good?

Not necessarily, for one they're incapable of using or making tools. That means they're not coming up with any complicated math.

Well since JP movies have gotten progressively worse after the first movie this movie ought to keep the tradition going. Cept this might be a new level of bad - this might be so bad that it will be good. Which has me kind of excited.

Well, this one at least has a decent plot on par with the first one.
The Park is finally open! Thousands of visitors! We've genetically engineered a dinosaur, because thats a good idea! O'dear its so smart that it escaped and started eating people! We need to catch it! Epic chase/fight scenes followed by total park collapse!

So Ingen (is Ingen still a thing?) crossed a Tyrannosaurus Rex with a Velociraptor and now the humans have to team up with the dinosaurs to take it out?
This is Michael Bay levels of stupid plot.

This movie is going to -eat-. Sorry, but the only thing that is giving it any kind of goodwill is the franchise. And it is a franchise, outside of its first movie, that has not been good.

None of the JP movies had a decent plot. But thats not the point, the point is dinosaurs eating people!

Hybrid Dinosaurs eating people.
Though I guess that applies to any of them really, but the new one they invented sounds like a 5-year-old came up with the idea.

As of "The Lost World", InGen was still a thing--but going into bankruptcy. The point of the expedition to Isla Sorna was to get a number of the animals to prove the venture had potential to investors.

I just wonder how the raptors are going to take down the Indominus when the helicopter failed...
Maybe he tried them as fire teams to operate 50 cal M2s or maybe a nice minigun. That would be a surprise.

Yeah, they simply don't have the wings or the claws for it. A Falcon proportionally has more strength.

One of these days people are going to realize big budget films, Hollywood or not, historically or modern, aren't meant to reflect reality and we will stop hearing complaints like this.

They had me until "we decided to make a new dinosaur" at which point the brain dead stupidity just completely lost me. I know that films of this nature often run on the 'arrogance of man' and all that, but there comes a point where an idea is just too stupid for me to seriously believe anyone would actually do it. Why would they even make one? What's the purpose other than "we need a disaster for this plot to run on, doesn't matter if any sense is made."
It's like the whole Resident Evil thing. I could buy an evil corporation with no care for it's actions starting a zombie apocalypse scenario, but that they'd be dumb enough to do it again instead of cutting their loses is just to far into the realm of dumbness for me to buy into.
Probably still gonna go see it XD Hunting raptors is kind of bad ass
