[PREVIEW] 🎙🧚♀️ #070 - Jurassic World: Dominion
from Commentary Fairy
Having missed out on the opportunity to cap off the Star Wars saga with a wretched disappointment of a final chapter (deferring that honour to JJ Abrams), Colin Trevorrow leapt like a slow-motion raptor on the chance to deliver the bads for the Jurassic saga, but instead delivered a film that's arguably no worse than the previous two Worlds. His methods? Excavating legacy cast; ignoring all logic to have Wu inexplicably continue creating huge killer dinosaurs without legal interference; and devoting 30% of screen-time to oversized agricultural pests. Discussed in this episode: T-Rex hogging all the big carnivorous dinosaur limelight Hollywood Photoshopping fails [select all] Owen Grady's infallible hypno-hand Dinosaur Bone Powder™ - your secret solution to 24 hours of petrified wood Lack of full-frontal slow-motion bird running video reference Dinosaur tattoos - not just for 9-year-olds Biosyn's secret, under-the-radar crop-killing scheme, utilising impossibly gigantic locusts for that extra layer of inconspicuousness Maisie's parents, as declared by every character in the film Still selecting the exact WRONG species of reptile to fill in the DNA sequence gaps. I'm sure there's a lot of reptiles out there that simply cannot change sex or reproduce asexually but for some reason, Wu's never met one of them. Wu's locust scheme making as much sense as using cancer to spread the cure for cancer Dilophosawwwww-rus The origin of the giant insect A-plot Justice for Giganotosaurus, a true innocent Accidentally relocated lines of dialogue Therizinosaurus committing involuntary dinoslaughter The largest creature that's ever lived (we all need to know this fact) Colin Trevorrow cathartically purging the emotional baggage from the death of his parents by killing tyrannosaurus rex in the Extended Edition prologue The IMDb-trivia-exclusive concept of "temporary killing" (if you want to sync it up to the film, we hit PLAY @ 05:26)
