While I agree about the JP3 Spino, the Big One was still portrayed as an overly aggressive animal, not an exaggerated and sadistic monster. Definitely not on the same level as the JP3 Spinosaurus or the JW hybrids. The dinosaurs in the first two films were still animals.NSZ wrote: ↑Sat Apr 09, 2022 9:28 amThe Lost World was the only entry that depicted the dinos as animals across the board. The first film had The Big One, and in JP3, the Spino was stalking the cast like Jason Voorhees & eating 20mm HEI rounds like Godzilla.ShinGojira14 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 09, 2022 8:41 am https://www.cbr.com/jurassic-world-domi ... ign=CBR-TW
I just want to see JP dinosaurs as animals again, for f*cks sake.
The books were even worse about this.
The books, while exaggerated in more than a few places, still gave realistic explanations as to why the animals behaved the way they did. Take the raptors for example; in the first book it was because they killed people prior to being enclosed, and thus learned to see humans as easy prey. Admittedly some of their actions were definitely exaggerated (like tanking being shot and still surviving for a while, or disemboweling someone with a ninja kick).
In The Lost World novel, it was a whole array of factors mixed in together that basically drove the raptors mentally insane. A mix of a rabid disease and an upbringing without any parent raptors to teach them how to behave naturally.
But then you throw in the JW films, where the dinosaurs are basically Kaiju with "heroic" or "evil" personalities. From what everything's looking like as of now, I fear we're gonna get the Giganotosaurus laughing GvK Godzilla-style... ... ...
