This is sad, frankly. The original did its best to make the dinosaurs appear as animals to the audience, and to be as accurate as they could be. That being said, to continue that tradition in the spirit of the first film would mean feathering the dromaeosaurs. Whether or not you feel that they "look stupid" feathered, in reality, they had feathers. Deal with it. That's like saying you'd think lions were more "badass" if they had naturally occuring mohawks wings on their backs. That's just not the way things are.

I am very disappointed that this director is making a conscious decision to ignore reality, and it will continue to breed the perceptions of these gorgeous animals as scaley hyper intelligent monsters.
