Of course, Sonic Boom and E.T. are stupid as f*ck, but now let's compare Sonic Boom's production time with Jurassic World: Evolution's time (yes I know that JW:E is still in production). Sonic Boom was awful, but think about it; one more year from now, and JW:E could be a masterpiece; best video game of all time. Same thing with JW:FK. Could be the best film and the longest.

Oh, so you've clearly played JW:E, then? No, of course you haven't. So you can't SAY it's any good. And I've already countered your argument...Sonic Boom was in development far, FAR longer than E.T., and they're both terrible games.

And what kind of argument is "Could be the best film and the longest"? That doesn't make any sense, and you full well know it doesn't. I've known movies that are 2.5 hours in length and they've been PANNED by critics and viewers alike, whilst some films that are only 75 minutes long have been praised. Length means NOTHING in terms of whether a movie is good or bad.

I don't understand your logic. OK, so they spent more time filming JW:FK, but that really doesn't guarantee that the movie will be longer. It could be the same length for all we know.

Also, I'm not arguing, I'm just stating the facts - filming length really doesn't determine either the film length (and that in turn doesn't determine the quality) Let's look at Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom's director: Juan Antonio Garcia Bayona. He has made films (like The Orphanage, The Impossible, A Monster Calls, The Queen Of Spain, and 9 Days in Haiti) that are just (let's put it this way) simply indescribable. And for Jurassic World: Evolution; it could just be as good as Zoo Tycoon and Planet Coaster. I know these merchandise of Jurassic World are not even out yet, but while JW:FK may not break the record for being the longest, it could break the record for being the GREATEST Jurassic Park film ever made.

We are not sure yet just how EXACTLY long JW:FK will be, but judging by the days spent, it could be slightly longer (yes I have read your side of this idea). Although I am in agreement that just how long a film is does not affect the quality, let's look at Jurassic World and other films that might serve an example.

Jurassic World: 2 hours (and 1 minute): 4th Highest Grossing Film of all time (was originally 3rd highest, but Star Wars: The Force Awakens beat it).

Star Wars: The Force Awakens: 2 hours and 15 minutes: 3rd Highest Grossing Film of all time.

The Emoji Movie: 1 hour and 26 minutes: Just Garbage. Piece. Of. Sh*t.

It (2017): 2 hours and 15 minutes: Horrifyingly Awesome.

Yes I know that these examples are contradicting your side, but I am fully aware that length does not affect quality. I just made this thread to predict. Sorry if I didn't understand your point.
