I don't care for the newer ones because literally none of the characters or moments are memorable. I can remember a deleted scene of... Whoever the female lead is (Christ, even forgot who she is) rubbing dinoshit all over herself and Chris Pratt getting turned on. Also remember a PA having the most unnecessary and violent death for just existing.

There was a scene that was very memorable to me. It's the scene where Chris Pratt is riding a Triumph Bonneville through a dense forest, full of undergrowth, with his raptor buddies. It is memorable to me because it's impossible. As someone who rides motorcycles and dirt bikes, that scene stood out to me as so stupid. Oh, one other scene. Where the aviary dome is broken and the pterodactyls immediately embark on a homicidal rampage. Because we all know that animals don't kill for food, they kill for fun, and what's more fun than slaughtering an entire city?

If they immediately go to slaughtering everything, that would mean they are hungry, which means the park staff was likely severely underfeeding them... which is animal abuse and gets zoos fined and/or shut down. Well fed animals might take a swipe at someone in their way, but they'd likely just head for the forest and do bird stuff there.

Realistic Jurassic Park would be pretty boring TBH

Bryce Dallas Howard. I remember because I have a thicc redhead thing. Sorry, not sorry.
