Eh, I can see where they were coming from but I wasn't such a big fan tbh
i agree with rich
6:26
It got taken down
honestly good riddance, lame bit that only really worked once.
unironically hack fraud move.
I don't know what RLM said about it but Fallen Kingdom was the first movie I've ever seen that was such a shitshow catastrofuck that I had no idea what was going on for most of it. Didn't help that I was getting hung up on cringing on the fact that everyone forgot how to act, the plot and script sucked shit through a crazy straw and there were a couple of lines I'm pretty sure were fucked up but stayed in the movie anyway.
If you, by some horrendous accident, happened to see Transformers 5, was it better or worse?
I haven't seen a transformer movie since the second one. I probably should see 5 just to compare.
I much be in the minority that liked the movie. Personally, I felt it was a very logical direction to take and it's one I've been theorizing about long before Jurassic World was even announced.
Nothing can be worse than that. At least Jurassic World followed a set path with setpiece after setpiece. Predictable, but at least you could expect some dino against dino action.
I love RLM's video of watching the three Transformers films at the same time and while I agree that they are generally terrible films, I never got the complaints about it being a headache to watch.
And then I saw the end of the Last Knight and realized you can actually get motion sickness from watching a film.
I did not like FK. I went in expecting an enjoyable monster flick, but I was honestly really disappointed.
I absolutely loved dinosaurs as a kid, and I loved how they seemed like real living animals. To see what amounts to a film on animal trafficking and abuse was just heart breaking. I know TLW is very much the same in that regard, but FK is more brutal. The stampede going off the cliff and the animals drowning, the dude literally pulling teeth, the shot of the brachiosaur on the dock. It really hurt to watch.
That's my general opinion anyway. There were a lot of other things I didn't like.
Slightly off topic, but given the renewed interest in Jurassic Park and the non-video in this thread, I'd thought I'd share something quite special.

A lot of you probably all ready know that Sir Richard Attenborough's reprised the role of John Hammond in the franchise videogame Trespasser. The game featured many excerpts of Hammond's fictional memoir which were read out to the player by Attenborough to contextualize locations and events on the island. Despite their purpose as exposition for the game before the player, they were, narratively, very well written and are, in my opinion, the best narrative driven overview of the history of the park, spanning twenty years from the night of Hammond's idea's inception to just shortly after the events of The Lost World.
Being intended to inform the player of their relative gameplay state, the memoir itself is fed non-chronologically to the player, jumping around the timeline as players visit various locales on the island and discover objects of interest. The Trespasser community rather painstakingly reassembled all of the audio into its proper chronology, to the best of their knowledge. Not only that but they set the resequenced audio to music and sound to make it sound much like a radio play.
That was 10 years ago, and relatively recently they celebrated the 10 year anniversary of that project by rereleasing the audiologs but now with hand drawn illustrations as well, to give the entire experience more depth. Some of you who were familiar with the original project or audio may not have experienced this anniversary released. There's a total of 16 parts to the video with a runtime of about an hour, so please check it out.
Jurassic Park always seemed like a cool concept but it has devolved to cater to kids. After seeing the first Jurassic World I didn't care enough at all to see any more
It was much better than JW, though the bar isn't set that high by it. You really notice that a much more experienced director made it. There are some really fantastic shots in this movie (opening sequence with the Mosasaurus) and it hit some fine notes emotionally in other scenes. The bad guys are paper thin, the writing isn't great but Bayona did the best what he could do with that script. It's also more suspenseful than the last.
The direction these movies are going is great though. I enjoyed it and don't feel bad about it. Optimistic 7/10.
I liked it better than Jurassic World. It was action schlock through and through, with the series typical heavy use of impossible coincidence and situational blindness.
Can't watch their video yet sadly because work, but I'm curious if they bring up that the movie is like 60% Aliens knock-off with dinosaurs. Chris Pratt is Hicks, the little girl is Newt, and Bryce Howard is Ripley. Like the shot at the end with her and the rifle up against the endoraptor on the rooftop, with her stripped down to just the tank-top and pants soaking wet was seriously just them framing her as Ripley. Also the big reveal that the little girl is a clone? I figured that out in what was I think her first scene where she is talking to Lockwood and she asked if she looked like her dead mother.
I didnt get to watch the video before it got taken down, but was it just a switcheroo like the transformers reviews?
Any mirrors?
