I say bring it. For the past few years its all about super heroes, robots, and animations. We need to bring them dinos back. Its been a while since we yell in horror at some million year old extinct creature.

Watched this when I was a kid. Few dinosaur movies are able to make these creatures life-like and scary. Not even the recently released Dinosaur Project is able to do that. The young ones can be forgiven if they think this movie was actually made around this time. 20 years after its release, this movie does not look outdated one bit.
i just realized Samuel L Jackson is in it. Wow how he has....grown.

I'm excited about a 4th movie. But another 3D gimmick? COME ON! How many 3D movies out there are worth the ticket price? I have probably less than five.

Sad news. Well... this 2013 dinosaur movie will do for now while waiting for some good news.

I'm sure as hell re-watching this again. I remember watching this 20 years ago and people were actually screaming their lungs off. Especially during the part the jeep falls from the tree.
I just hope the 3D won't ruin it. 3D movies are known to be darker and gets blur(er) when the camera pans too fast. If its not done right it will even be a pain to watch.

On another note, its sad that even after 20 years and with all the advancement in technology, newer movies are still showing dinosaurs that are more laughable than terrifying.

Have to agree. Some people actually screamed at that part. I knew it was coming (since I've watched it 20 years ago) but even I almost just out of my seat because it was such a close call.

Watched it in IMAX Sunway Pyramid (no subtitles too). After 20 years its still a good watch. Hardly notice any effects on the 3D though because I was too busy enjoying the movie itself. There are still people screaming when the dinosaurs attack, surprisingly its them teenagers, the kids just kept quiet.

And in the climax we'll see Star Lord defeat them dinosaurs with an epic dance battle!
I just had to say that...

After years of rumors we're finally getting closer to seeing it. Man, there's this one time where there were even rumors to strap guns and missiles on them dinosaurs.

Suddenly raptors becomes less scary now that you're able to tame them. They were the most dangerous in the previous movies. You can outrun the fat T-rex but not the raptors. And now we see them running together with us to attack the hybrid (or they could be running AWAY from the hybrid).

Oh look is that a Galaxy Gear?

Oh man I remember this! Thought it was pretty cool back then but now when I look back, thats some pretty weird stuff. The 80's and 90's seem to be full of it.

Not sure if friendly raptors are supposed to be a good thing. They used to be the most terrifying thing. Now they can be trained like dogs... So the only scary thing will be that big fat new hybrid dinosaur.

How do you know the size is exaggerated when you've never seen it's actual size? Also, the poster does not in any way show that it's incapable of breaking the glass. It's not like the dinosaur is being shown breaking the glass but couldn't.

Watched it in IMAX 3D in Sunway Pyramid on Saturday and they do have it.

As for the movie, I really enjoyed it and had a good time from the beginning. The raptors being trained were made believable, they can take orders from someone they trust but are still smart enough to bite back if they want to. I was surprised how graphic the death scenes were this time even though there weren't much blood. Definitely the most graphic out of the three and your baby is probably gonna have nightmares watching them.

There were some references to the first movie here and there (the shirt, jeep, night vision goggles, how to kids were getting attacked in front of a glass is similar to the one from the first movie, the flare used to attract the dinosaur, etc) and I also liked the climax which I though was unexpected where they invited a special 'guest' from the first movie to join them.
The 3D is ok but you won't miss much without it.

I've waited too long for another good dinosaur movie to give me a good time and I'm gonna be generous and give this a 10/10. Nowadays its all about superhero movies so its good to see reptiles taking the spot light this time.

I don't think its possible for this one to be better than the first one especially if you're one of those who watched the first one in the cinema when it was released back then. It might be possible for the story to be better but overall the first one was just mind blowing when you see dinosaurs that look so real for the first time. It was a jaw dropping experience. Kinda like watching Transformers appear for the first time on the big screen. After that everything has been pretty much seen and done.

Just remembered that shark hanging was probably a reference to Jaws or something.

It's the world's first movie to make half a billion on its opening weekend. Everyone is pretty stunned because no one saw that coming.
And its gonna be raking in a lot more in the next few weeks because there's not much competition.

There's actually a scene where they wiped dinosaur crap all over them to cover their scents that didn't make it to the final cut.

I haven't watch "A Monster Calls" yet but "The Orphanage" is one of the best horror movies I've seen. JW2 is said to be darker and scarier and it sure looks to be that way.

Definitely not one of the best and most people will probably watch it just to see how the franchise concludes/nostalgia and not because it's good. It was kinda fun to see the original cast back and some callbacks to the previous movies and all but I didn't like the direction where the franchise has headed to. It's like Fast and Furious now where the first movie started small and takes place in one location with a small group of people but now it's like saving the world stuff, travelling from one place to another, coming up with a plan, CIA/undercover stuff and all. Glad it ended before it got more ridiculous.
