Both books end in their respective ways because of theories at the time about dinosaur extinction. The first represents complete annihilation of the species, as demonstrated by the Bombing, which of course represents the Meteorite. The second book shows disease as the cause of the dinosaur extinction, which was a radical theory supported by none other than Robert Bakker.

However, while this works as a book, in a family film it wouldn't be great.
