User blog comment:BastionMonk/No feathers in JPIV/@comment-124.43.225.146-20130504160026

After looking at the massive debates, I say this;

MismeretMonk's idea of a new Dromaeosaur that ISN'T Velociraptor would be nice. Because this is basically how it is seen, the Raptors in JP1 are female, the ones in TLW are male, so that ends that. Now JPIII. JPIII is completely different from the previous two, even though the first one is super different to the second, it still retains the core. In JPIII I prefer to think of it as a completely different genetic splicing sequence. You can only make certain no. of cloned animals before you run out, so what if they used a more complete or differently spliced DNA. That would explain the difference.

If JPIV had someone explain the difference in Raptors, like give a lecture on how the genetic makeup was twisted with pictures included, that could clear up any debates, and introducing a new bad-ass and more realistic looking Dromaeosaur to serve as an antagonist will certainly be epic. Maybe even show that Dromaeosaur fight some Raptors from the other films like MismeretMonk said.

That aside, I'm a bit concerned on the large therapod dinosaur used in the film. The first two had T-Rex and the 3rd had the awesome sub-adult T-Rex Vs. Spinosaurus battle.

Now as much as fans would love to see the return of those epic predators, I would like to see some of the other large therapods that appear only in the games and comics. The others appearing as cameo is fine but having a big baddie that serves as a true carnivore and not the psychopath the drugged T-Rex buck and Spinosaurus were, would make it a lot different and give a new kind of thrill. If they were to have one that would constantly pick off the humans and other smaller dinos and maybe even a big dino but had the limits of a regular living being, where it would simply stare at the humans instead of chasing or stalking them when not in hunting mode. I mean, lets face it, the only reason to target humans is cause they aren't physically evolved to counter them. I always found it strange how persistent the Spinosaurus was to take out the humans despite having so many alternatives(T-Rex carcass) and considering that humans aren't that much a threat to its territory but I assume its the dominance factor, where it kills foreign bodies for the sake of killing them or maybe it was experienced in the ways of humans and knew the threat they posed.
