I beg to differ. The portrayal of the raptors in JPIII was not the result of a few feathers on its head. It is the result of the philosophy of Jurassic Park. JP is hard science fiction, the desire is to portray dinosaurs as they were. The dinosaurs were no monsters, but animals. Indeed, the first film did portray the raptors and T. rex as mindless killers. However, in TLW it was shown that the T. rex was a loving parent. In JPIII the raptors are portrayed more as an animal than a killing machine. If people want to see mindless-killing-machine-dinosaurs, I think they should ask for a new Carnosaur film. The TLW T. rex and JPIII raptors do have a soft side, but they are still fearsome.
