I just want to see JP dinosaurs as animals again, for f*cks sake.
The 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.

The books were even worse about this.
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.

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... ... ... -_-

I just found out that a Russian soldier name Aleksei Bychkov rapped a Ukrainian Toddler while his friend filmed it and post it online. I don’t have the words to describe how horrible this is, I won’t watch the video due to how terrible it is. People like this shouldn’t be born.

if Giganotosaurus doesn't say "We live in a society" or doesn't rant about how oppressed G*mers are, I'm suing Universal

Results are in: Covid Positive.

I just have a blocked nose, so I guess that’s fine.

Yeah, double vaxxed. I guess that’s why I’m not feeling doubly shitty.

You’re welcome.

I’m glad you’re vaccinated. It ensures your protection.

Hopefully it doesn't get any worse for you, Voyager. Really sucks that it broke through two vaccines.

You guys know those awful animated Titanic films, the ones where it had a skreeonking rapping dog, group of villainous men in recruits with a gang of sharks AND a giant dog-faced octopus saving the ship from disaster?

Well apparently I just found out those abominations had a 2010 sequel series called Fantasy Island...

I don't HATE Elon Musk but.. there is definitely times where the guy is in way over his head. This totally feels like one of those times.

I can't say i care that much for what happens to Twitter itself though, because Twitter is the worst social media sight to ever exist. :lol:
