As it says in the title, this is the Jurassic World discussion thread for those who have seen the movie so if you haven't or if you don't mind having the movie spoilt for you then STOP READING RIGHT NOW.

So first off I'm going to say for me this movie was awesome I think we've all been waiting to see this park in operation and it doesn't disappoint though I did feel that going through the park was a little rushed to move it on to the point it wanted to get to so the story could unfold (not that that's a bad thing) I suppose I would have liked a bit more of the nostalgia thing such as with the T Rex eating the goat maybe we could have seen a little more of Rexy at that point.

As for Indominus Rex herself and her escape that was executed perfectly for me just Claire's sudden realisation that she simply tricked them into the pen so she could escape. I do feel sorry for the other park worker who was hidding behind the car and just has one last look at Owen before being devoured but it was a great scene. I also like how none of them know what was in her genetic makeup apart from Dr Wu (Glad he survived, want to see him become more sinister).

Masrani was pretty laughable I mean he's going up against an animal he has no idea about and starts dicking around in a helicopter with the two ACU gunners but what a way to go. I like how Zara was very removed from Zach and Gray and her death was done well. Gotta say although we already knew Hamada was in for a tough time being crushed by Indominus Rex was crazy but I like how it seems to subtly nod to Carter's death in TLW:JP as well as the rest of his unit being killed off with each death shown followed by the flatlining vitals screen. As for Hoskins I loved the irony of how he was killed by the raptors which he spent the whole movie trying to exploit as military assets.

The fight between Indominus Rex and Rexy was to me how it should have been I could not be more happy that not only does Rexy and Blue win, the mosasaur finishes off Indominus Rex (Gotta say I called that ages ago) even though I almost yelled in outrage when Indominus Rex was about to kill Rexy but I digress. So yeah, anyway I could not be more happier that they got Rexy and Blue as the sort of heroes in the end and for me Blue stole the show which I found surprising as for me after the first JP I felt they just threw the Velociraptors in just for the sake of it I mean less so in TLW:JP but definitely in JPIII just cause we (the audience) love them but Blue definitely was for me the best part of the film.

I also like how the whole tamed raptor thing was completely turned on its head so I expect most people going in thinking the raptors are going to be like trained pets are going to get a nice surprise so that was another great aspect. I like Zach's sort of character transition during the movie (so glad he lost his phone) though the film still hasn't made the horrifying jump to killing the kids which (now please don't shoot me on this) I think would make the dinosaurs a lot more threatening to the viewer and if you do it properly then you can still retain the 12 or PG-13 rating. Surprised that Gray was almost snatched by Indominus Rex though never thought for a minute they would kill him off.

All in all I think this is a great movie and very worthy of the original though I do have to say going in I thought Jurassic World would be the better movie but to me the only thing it doesn't seem to have is the magic the original has lus I half expected to see some kind of TV report at the end on like a monitor with Jeff Goldblum telling an interviewer that he repeatedly told Masrani or one of the others involved that making Jurassic World was a bad idea. Also thought the addition of Jimmy Fallon was a neat touch and a good nod to Richard Kiley's voice in the original. So yeah I thought this was a great movie much better than TLW:JP and JPIII but still not quite like the original I also would have liked the mosasaur to have a little more screen time as well considering all but the scene where it grabs Indominus Rex and drags her into the lagoon were in the trailers but all in all can't complain at all it was fantastic and well worth waiting for.
