This was both entertaining and very persuasive.  Excellent content, 5/5.

I'm actually glad it sucked. I never saw it. I was so happy when Burke got chomped by an alien in Aliens.

The ending was such bullshit with this too. Like whoever wrote it should go make cartoons or some shit. The new big dino trying to catch them at the end, cool, they get a trex to come, cool, trex and new dino fight, thats awesome, then what? A fucking raptor teams up with the trex, which could be cool maybe, but not after its over they fucking like, nod at each other and then go about their business. and did there really need to be the giant meso one that grabbed it? Ughh was so stupid.

 

It would have been so much cooler if they had the trex redeemed from what they did in JP3. After they got the first trex to come, and when it was being held down about to get pwnt, the second trex, probably a bigger one should have came to fucking help it, like weve seen in JP2, they stick in pairs. Could have been badass to see it come to the rescue and then 2 trexs proceed to tear the new one apart.

Everything he said was spot on, cept for the last bit. I'm not that invested in a freaking blockbuster action cgi film when it comes to morals - "I don't know what kind of person i should be so let me play this film so it may guide my compass and thus I can become a better human being".

Ever watched a cartoon growing up?

 

Learned about empathy and morals? Remember seeing your idols, these heroes saving lives?

Would it be weird if that was still somehow produced for adults?

 

Oh right. The nineteenth Marvel movie is coming out and all the main heroes are still alive. I wonder why?

But that is a different point altogether. Growing up you should be presented with good moral examples, your mind is still being shaped. As an adult your morals should be able to resist being influenced by an entertainment action flick.

What I meant was, Jurassic World was also advertised as a "family movie" as mentioned in this video, which means you take your kids to see it.

 

Mike Hill tries to explain that the movie has none of those values and whomever cooked it up don't seem to have any deep concept of writing nor understanding for its targeted audience.

 

And I see it too. To me it appeared people got eaten up and killed for no good reason, in a totally random manner, because the people who made it have been convinced that this was what the Jurassic Park movies were about.

 

But that's what my parents think the Jurassic Park movies are about, because they go out for smoke breaks about 5 times during any movie, and are convinced they've now seen the film. Not very different from people watching movies on their iphones who believe they've seen them. Or the WORST kind of people are the ones who are playing games on their laptops or on their phones while the movie is playing the background. And then asks whomever they're watching it with these dumbass questions because they weren't paying attention.

 

 

Those people can die.

Does it matter how other people view movies?

It matters to the creators of movies. There's no way in hell someone watches a movie on their phone without checking social media updates, thus interrupting their own experience. And nobody uses a million dollar budget on high quality special effects for someone to watch it on a tiny screen where resolution is basically irrelevant. And if someone who watches a movie on their phone, and then proceed to review it as if they got the full experience, they deserve to die prematurely. That's just a fact. Watching a movie on your phone is the ultimate insult to the creators.

 

Here's David Lynch on the topic:

My name is Grothesk, and I watch movies by downloading them and watching them at my leisure on my computer.  Sometimes it will take me 3-4 days to watch a single movie because I pause it to do other tasks, work, and playing Dota 2.

 

How exactly are you affected by me watching movies in this way?  How exactly are filmmakers affected by me watching movies in this way?  What is the *proper* way to watch a movie?

Do you play Dota 2 WHILE WATCHING THE MOVIE?

No, you pause it. There are people in this world that do all this shit, WHILE SUPPOSEDLY watching the movie.

 

Later if you ask those people what they feel about the movie, they'll say, nothing special. Perhaps, not even consider it a good movie, but they'll claim they've seen it. BUT DID THEY GROTH? DID THEY REALLY WATCH THE MOVIE?

 

Some of these faggots even actively review movies.

They clearly deserve to die.

 

Nothing wrong with pausing a movie, but you are interrupting the feel a director/editor/actor etc was trying to convey when you do. But the act of DOING EVERYTHING ELSE while the movie is playing is like skimming through a book and claiming you've read it.

 

I am affected by people doing that because I talk to people about movies. And if they've seen a movie, while I haven't, I should trust them when I ask if it was any good, that they were actually paying attention and aren't totally dismissing a movie that is actually great.

 

People are saying that the quality of movies are getting worse every year. But I don't agree with that anymore. People are worse at watching movies.

 

The proper way to watch a movie is with a large screen, good sound, dimmed or no lights, and no interruptions to immerse you in the story, which is what movies, novels and all of storytelling is about.

 

THEN you can blame the movie's creators for making a shitty movie.
