      Challenge: Let's broaden the Jurassic world. How do you make a Jurassic movie without the dinosaurs breaking loose?

          I do agree with the main point of your post; however, I feel that your reasoning is backwards.

          Big blockbusters give the masses a dose of placebo. You see a movie where people who hold your values win, so you feel like it happened in real life, so you're less likely to make it happen in real life.

          So I'm not spoiling this movie, look at the MCU instead: They defeated Thanos and stopped half the world's population from disappearing, and then we failed to properly fight COVID and Donald Trump gained power.

          Now, I know correlation doesn't equal causation, and that there were other factors at play, but I also know that when you perceive the image of something, it activates the same neurons as actually seeing that thing - when you watch The Notebook or Armageddon, you feel the emotions of the characters in the film, and you cry.

          That, combined with the other psychological tactics that we are constantly being bombarded with, make it difficult for us to navigate the world with a clear head. When you feel like you're winning, why would you fight?

          And also, a TON of people are straight apathetic, and a lot more are just plain-old stupid. And there are dozens or hundreds of other factors such as personality of the audience, socioeconomics, religious beliefs, etc... that come into play here as well. It's not quite as cut-and-dry as "monkey see, monkey feels as though it has done," but that does play a large factor in it.

          I typed all this but didn't proofread any of it, so I hope it makes sense. I'm sleepy.

              I saw the latest fuckrassic park a couple days ago. It was at best… okay. Not worth what the movie theater charges. But if you wait to stream it then it isn’t terrible. But overall, this franchise has lost its luster

                  First one was grand, didn't need to be followed up or remade. Now we have a franchise.. The only remake I wouldn't mind seeing is a more brutal first one, closer to what the book was depicting. All I'd be interested in really.

                      The Jurassic Park movie franchise is the best representation of movies that diminish with each movie since the first one.

                        I was ok with the first Chris Pratt one. Not great, not awful.

                        What I really wish they had done was set the next one a couple years down the line. Maybe a couple of those military helicopters that are stealing the dinosaurs at the end crashes in mainland South/Central America. Imagine a Jurassic Park movie that's a cross between Alien/Predator/Planet of the Apes. Really lean into the highly intelligent apex predator and horror angle.

                        The problem with these movies, is they keep letting the cat out of the bag, over and over and over. Cat's out. What's next?

                          I think people at different levels of media literacy read/watch stories differently.

                          I think people with different politics maybe do too; im an anarchist, at best an incoherent and extremely skip-that-part version of what i believe gets spouted by the villain.

                              I thought this was better than Jurassic World 2. I didn't see the 3rd.

                                The second Jurassic World movie was that, sort of.

                                    I swear Universal said Jurassic World: Dominion would be the last movie for the franchise, then two years later they announced Rebirth.
