Be realistic, Strat. That was never gonna happen.

I watched this movie with my nephew this morning and it might be the worst movie I've ever seen. Completely soulless and the plot is ridiculously stupid.

It's incredible that they managed to make a movie worse than Jurassic World, but JWFK makes it look like Citizen Kane.

-5 stars. Please God don't let them make another one.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

He was hilarious in Parks and Rec but it was such a small thing he did very well. He played lovably stupid and it was great. But yeah, he's no Harrison Ford.

I watched this almost 2 years ago, so I don't have the numbers in front of me or in my recent memory, but I recall being most taken out of the movie during the dinosaur auction scene because the prices they were selling for were way too low. I believe people were paying less than a billion dollars for a dinosaur. I feel like they would each go for $10b easily.

Totally. He should've gone the comedy route. Not action star bro route. :shake:

Ron Swanson would've been a better action star than him. Bad career path choice.

Fallen Kingdom works better as a Mario Odyssey level
