I really liked it. Maybe its cause I am bias. Or how excited I was about the movie. I don't know.

I only had to defend the movie once.  The guy I was talking to said that it was just dinosaurs running around eating everything in sight, AGAIN!  But the worst part was when he said that anyone and everyone involved with Jurassic was an idiot for thinking that it's cool.

This isn't world politics buddy, it's a movie.  

Personally I didn't like Jw that much in comparison to Tlw or even jurassic park 3.

I was dissapointed with the raptors being even more scaly than they were before and how thay were hopping around like crows even thogh they were 6ft tall and the indominus was just boring it just looked like a standard large theropod and the plot was just....It went beyond the realms of actually happening and it just seemed like one big cheesy monster popcorn movie!

5.5/10.

DINOSAUR.FANATIC2.0 - It is very good to have you back! I look forward to your presence once more! As for your question: I have not had to defend Jurassic World in any capacity; everyone with whom I have shared conversations concerning the film enjoyed it to one degree or another. I feel that Jurassic World receives some of its ill-deserved criticism because it has done so very well - much like James Cameron's Avatar. For some reason, it seems that there are individuals within the world whom attempt to drag ideas and individuals down for the fact that they are successful. It is unpleasant, to say the least. However, Jurassic World's record-holding numbers are the most telling statistic! There is really no need to defend a film that has swept aside the competition with one swipe of its clawed hand! :)

While I was not here when you were here, welcome back!

To answer your question, no I have not had to defend this movie and I probably won't. Everyong has the right to speak their opinion and it's ok if they don't agree with somethings. There are some people out there that don't like dinosaurs (scary I know, lol) but people like what they like. As long as I saw a movie and I liked it, I'm a happy velociraptor :3.

@LOPSQuid

What is wrong with Raptors with scales?

@Lopsquid - I would argue that the different plot style from JP and TLW (and arguably JPIII) is because the first three movies were basically science horror films, while JW was an action movie. I think judging by it's genre JW was really a very entertaining and appealing film.  Also considering this was Colin Trevorrow's second movie directed and the first Jurassic installment in over a decade, I was able to overlook some minor nitpicky details.  What exactly about the plot bugged you?

@Dinosaur.fanatic2.0 First, the indominus was just kind of ridiculous i mean why would you even make that? and hoskins wanting smaller versions of the indominus to use in war I mean just WHY? and the Mosasaurus was just conveniently floating there waiting for the indominus with it's blue whale size and bulk.

@Therizinosaurus rex 

well the raptor were just big lizards in Jurasssic world, in jurassic park 3 they had round pupils they had more accurate heads and They had bird skin and quills but Jw just got rid of all of it.

Each to their own. I enjoyed it, the next guy may not. Everyone's different, I kinda just shrug it off. Who cares? It's a movie. 

@Lord Vader - When I'm enthusiastic about a movie I can't help but cringe when others do not appreciate it. Call it over-obsessive devotion to the fandom :D

@Lopsquid - Okay, the design of the dinosaurs weren't to your liking; but I think it is cool that we have a totally new and unique plot that is setting up for a wider expansion out of the typical island theme park plot.  But I won't harass you about your opinion anymore; to each his own. :)

True. I enjoyed it, some didn't, whatever. It's inevitable, I don't let it bother me because, well, the opinion of others doesn't matter to me. I'll do what I want and like what I want. If you like it, cool, if you don't, I don't care. I've gotten pretty laid back over the course of the summer, which helps me in that sense. 

I know what you mean with the cringe bit though, I get that occasionally depending on how bad they badmouth it, but I just say I thought it was great ano change the topic. 

The only things I hate about JW-

The original trilogy seems irrelevant to some percentage of people.

Now, the Internet's most cringeworthy thing-'

NEVER. EVER. Look up JW Blue and Rexy on Google Images (I needed it for a Jurassic World: The Game comparison and clicked on Blue and Rexy instead). I got a bunch of these things called "Jurassic Human World".

Anyway, I LOVED the film and some of the merchandice! :D

@Sci-Fi King25

Dare I ask what JW Blue and Rexy is? Or can that not be said here o.O?

SFK, I searched that and got a variety of results. Some were cool, some were funny, some were even cute. I don't know what happened with you though. 

LOTS of Blue and Rexy shipping and fan art.

@SFK - that's interesting that you say, if I can paraphrase, that you don't like how Jurassic World blots out the original trilogy for modern moviegoers.  That is a good point, many people have seen JW and not the first three. I will say, however, that the fact that JW had the biggest box office opening in history is truly a testament to the huge, loyal Jurassic fanbase.  So yes, while a few people may overlook the originals, rest assured that the number of people who love and respect the originals is much, much greater.

@Something Real - Sorry for not formally responding to you! I agree with you, as such a successful film it's not surprising that Jurassic World has fallen under even greater criticism than most films these days.  I'm glad that you haven't had to defend the film though! You must hang out with the right crowd. ;)

Probably the best JW haters are those scientists calling it a "monster movie" (the dinosaurs are genetically engineered theme park monsters but that's besides the point), because the dinosaurs weren't feathered.

@Basically Everyone, I don't know what happened when I looked at the Blue and Rexy pictures, but I did see some cool ones mixed with the bad ones. Coming back on it, there was only, like, three bad ones. HOWEVER, I saw a really funny one of Rexy, Blue, and the Mosasaurus wearing sunglasses, while Blue was holding Jimmy Buffett's margaritas.

(BTW, I have this theory that JW would eventually suffer the same downfall as Five Night's at Freddy's. Don't look at most of the fan art. Whether I'm right or not is still questionable. I also saw all four raptors drawn as humans and immediately shut off my iPod and thought for a moment about my theory.)

I see. Interesting SFK. That's disgusting, why the actual **** do people draw that crap. 

@ Sci-Fi King25 & Lord Vader

I know right! It's not just dinosaurs but other things in general. Every time I see something wrong that should have a censor I'm thinking to myself, "You people disgust me and need common sense -_-".

Anyway, who likes pizza?

^Pizza is my favorite food. :3

Favorite flavor of pizza anyone? (And why are we talking about pizza on a Jurassic World forum lol)

Anyone ever try squirrel meat pizza before? It is to die for! (I'm Jeanette by the way!)

Maybe there is an off-topic forum somewhere? I like sausage on my pizza. No I haven't had squirrel meat pizza before. Also hi Jeanette! I'm VirtualVel and welcome to Scified :)

Squirrel pizza? *takes notes*

My favourite is Hawaiian.

Dino.Fan, it tops what the topic was kinda shifting to. 

@Lord Vader -- so true, lol

@Jeanette_Chung -- Welcome to Scified! Squirrel meat pizza? Very interesting.

@Vel -- We should look for that forum... ;)

I had pizza for lunch today.

I'm having pizza for breakfast tomorrow before I head to work. Nothing says "good morning" quite like microwaved two day old pizza and a Rockstar I found under my bed for breakfast at 5:00 in the morning.
