Sapienraptor teja (Texan Wise Plunderer)

Size: 8 ft long, 5 ft tall (minimum adult size)

Weight: 300 pounds

Its evolution-line shares a common ancestor with Dakotaraptor but is derived enough to be placed in its own clade or tribe Sapienraptora. When compared to its relatives the Sapienraptor has key deviating anatomical features: Rotating wrists which it evolved these to better manipulate its surrounding environment such as digging for small mammals or making make shift spears, given most of its raptoral traits have soften.

Heterodont teeth for its more diverse diet as it evolved to be more of a generalist. Its diet can range from Meat, Fish, Berries, and Fruits.

Its intelligence is that of a Homo habilis.

It lived on a coastal archipelago that would be later known as Texas. Its not at the top of its food chain, since coastal subspecies of Dakotaraptor dominate the top along side a diminutive Tyrannosaurid genus.

The Sapienraptor are monogamous as in they pare for life; Sapienraptors also live in bands of at least 7 families. Should their pack get too big it will splinter and migrate from its parent pack to avoid resource strain but also to maintain genetic diversity.

It's mindblowing that one fight that could be a really fun part of the movie(and was for me) gets so many people bothered about the scientific aspects of how the fight went, or how it would really go down.

This is science fiction, who cares if t.rex would win in real life? Velociraptor is like half the size of the ones in the movie, but no one gets wrapped up how unrealistic that is, or says that ruins the movie for them.

Hey yall keep capitalizing the species name, in scientific naming conventions the species name is always lower case.

ie Correct: Tyrannosaurus rex, Incorrect: Tyrannosaurus Rex

Damn as much as I love Tyrannosaurus, I would have to go with Indominus.

She has Rugop's armored skin, T. rex's bite force, Therizinosaurus arms, Giganotosaurus's size, Carnotaurus's horns, Majungosaurus's ummmm cannablistic behavior? a cuttle fish's camouflage, a pit viper's ability to cover its heat signature, and the Velociraptor's cunning 

On the CGI thing, that's not what Colin Trevorrow said.

Also I thought the dialogue in Jurassic World was fine.

Yes my main complaint is the spinosaurus, it tried too hard to be a Tyrannosaurus replacer as in lacked personality where as the tyrannosauruses in the previous films behaved more naturally: Rexy wasn't hounding the main characters all the time and when she did appear was on mere happenstance, also she actually hunted other dinosaurs and gave up chasing humans when they weren't worth the extra distance while Buck and Doe only chased the main characters around because they smelled their infants's blood on Sarah's jacket and they took their infant.

Spinosaurus just chased the main characters around and never hunted any of the dinosaurs (Mr. Green/JPIII T. rex doesn't count since it was a duel and not a hunt) and it felt to me spinosaurus was trying to hard to replicate all the T. rex scenes.

1. Prior to the airplane crash the Spinosaurus runs across the runway to eat Cooper, then the plane's propeller hits the spinosaurus since we know that blood couldn't be Cooper's as the plane was pulling up its propellers where near its freaking ass and not near its face. That would of been a fatal wound to the spinosaurus and we know that its the same spinosaurus since when they were digging in its dung, they found cooper's sunglasses.

2. The Fight between Tyrannosaurus and Spinosaurus ruined the movie for me, since Spinosaurus has weaker jaws and cannot use its arms that way. Mr. Green (my nickname for the JPIII T. rex) delivered the first bite on the Spinosaurus and I don't care what Joe Johnston says that it was a subadult, it should of killed that Spinosaurus.

3. Spinosaurus breaking through the metal fence, it was like it was trying to make a statement that "T. rex is a wuss they could only chew through fence, me strong, me smash through fence!" only to be stopped by an 11 year old wooden door with some flimsy metal strains (Since Isla Sorna's facilities were abandoned, the door has been left unmaintained for 11 years)

Just saying but I-Rex would wreck t-rex for starters it can camouflage and go basically invisible it is also smart enough to remember where it's tracker was put in it can take a hit from a stinger missile its part raptor so it can run like a b***h it was made in a lab it can take down a whole herd of Argentinosaurs can take bullet hits and it is worth $29 million dollars so who how's what else was plonked in it.

I love the Styracosaurus!

Sam Neil, William H. Macy and Tea Leoni are classically trained actors with stage credits and numerous awards. Neil in particular has some of the most notable chops. Even the poor dialog they were given in Jurassic Park III was delivered stronger than some of the best dialog that weaker talents such as Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard were given in Jurassic World. (Which, to be fair... they weren't given a lot of decent dialog. At all.) To claim otherwise is feigning ignorance.

The reason Jurassic World relied on CG was not because of budget restraints. It was because of "reliability" and executive decisions. Producers are so dependent on CG today, that they fear the risk of practical effects not working correctly, failing on screen or not being ready in time for a shoot. It has nothing to do with budget which, in many cases, would be decreased through the use and manpower of practical effects.

Jurassic Park III is the weakest entry, no doubt. But if your main complaint is the Spinosaurus then you seem to be missing the point either way.

Valkyrsaurus Enragicus 

Length:45 Ft 

Hight:19.5 ft

Mostly don't hunt it is the only one of her kind and is a alien experiment. She is beautiful and elegant but, do not make her angry she had her feathers turned to razors and teeth into energy weapons of death. She also is able to use two metal flaps that fling up and down to communicate and befriend. She is C.Saharicus but she was experimented on after all.

Jurassic Park III had stronger acting.... Hahahaha, good one, that's the funniest thing I've read.

If were talking about special effects the reason why Jurassic World relied more of CGI is because of budget restraints.

Jurassic Park III was freaking terrible, with a spinosaurus that could kill T. rex and can smash through a metal fence but couldn't break through a twelve year old wooden door.

damn I wanted to say Triceratops, Diabloceratops, Nasutoceratops, Styracosaurus, and Pachyrhinosaurus

I think Jurassic World merely edges out Jurassic Park III and that's only because it has more going on in its story than JPIII. Jurassic World wants to be looked at as a meta piece of filmmaking, but its mere existence sort of contradicts what its preaching.

Whereas Jurassic Park III largely has stronger acting and more interesting effects shots--Particularly the amazing practical effects. In a way Jurassic Park III can be looked at as the last of a particular brand of effects craftsmanship.

I don't think Jurassic World is bad, but its reflexive nature is contradicting and it relies far too much on nostalgia which will feel meaningless a few years from now.

I do love how the film makers know its a goofy, dumb movie and play that up though.

Jurassic World was a heck a lot better than JP III. To me Jurassic World almost rivaled Jurassic Park original, but of course Jurassic Park one will always be the best.

Either Diabloceratops or Nasutoceratops 

Hey guys can m new to scified and I was wondering if you could tell me what to do to be able to write stuff like this what do I click?

I will probably get a lot of hate but Jurassic world by miles I just love the effects and I love the part where Rexy and Indominus Rex fight it is such a good movie 

love dat scene!

Loving this! Part 2 is very intriguing!

GMAN2887 - Hahaha! Cinematic genius at work! ;)

^LOVE that part. :P

GMAN2887 - "...Alan...". ;)

Honestly, I think The Lost World is a superior film to Jurassic World. Jurassic World is pure, dumb fun, but The Lost World had more sincerity to its scenes and characters.

And as weak as Jurassic Park III is, it's not nearly as bad as some say.

I always liked The Lost World, but Jurassic Park is a very close second.

@Xenoraptor

I liked Jurassic Park: The Lost World better than Jurassic Park III, so...yeah.

Yeah have to agree with the sentiment that the first is far and away the best. We've talking one of the best movies of all time when looking at Jurassic Park.

The rest are fine, but they can't compare with the original.

Xenotaris- Yeah I'd agree with that order. I think I'd bump up Jurassic Park III to an equal standing with The Lost World though.

The original Jurassic park! Jurassic world did a great job but it will never beat the 1st one!

10. Jurassic Park III

3. Jurassic Park: The Lost World

2. Jurassic World

1. Jurassic Park

I am growing fonder of the Triassic period.

GMAN2887 - Well said! Hear, hear! :)

None of the sequels have or will touch the original movie. Not even close. It's a masterpiece that's able to transcend its flaws due to its vision, atmosphere and imagination. There was nothing like it beforehand and there's been nothing like it since then.

Over 20 years later it seems like blockbusters are still trying to capture the same magic the original Jurassic Park had to no avail. It will still be a hard one to top in another 20 years and I have no doubt it will continue to stand the test of time.

XENORAPTOR - Welcome to SCIFIED! It is always good to see new faces! I happen to believe Jurassic Park is the definitive and most exciting portion of the Jurassic franchise! This is due to the fact that the original was groundbreaking in its visual elements and was unlike any other dinosaur film before it! Once again, welcome to SCIFIED! :)

LORD SHIRO - Dire Wolves are quite fascinating animals! :)

alright, the marine reptile one is going to be complicated

Since some Marine reptiles evolved independently from the others.

Also I need to finish the Pterosaurs evolution real quick

Read it awesome hell!

*is waiting for marine reptiles* I LOVE MARINE REPTILES!!! MOSTLY MOSASAURUS!

GG wow you wrote so much....

My fav' ice age animal must be the Dire Wolf! (i love canines)

SCI-FI KING25 - The terror birds were quite menacing - especially Titanus! :)

XENOTARIS - The  xenosmilus is an animal that has always intrigued me to a substantial degree! I very much like the artistic renditions that display it as possessing tiger-stripes! They are beautiful! :)
