Why aren't you saving all of them, San Lumen?

Why aren't you making Disney take in all the cows and chickens and pigs?


I mean we could do that but a lot of 'Carnivorous Humans' would be upset at not getting their tasty hamburger. I mean we should all go vegan mates!

This was my problem with the core conceit of this movie. In four attempts to interact with dinosaurs it has gone south every time. No interaction with humans and dinosaurs has worked out to not be a huge disaster resulting in the lose of human life. Jeff Goldblum's testimony should have been, "Seriously? When has this ever worked out? For anyone? Ever?" Not only was it a no-brainer to let that island wipe out the dinosaurs it was also a no-brainer to put serious restrictions on the type of genetic engineering that caused this disaster in the first place. As already pointed out, the process exists and the material does as well, if there could be a case made that honest cross my heart pinky swear this time it won't be a total fuckfest of textbook hubris, we could make another dino. In fact, the ability to genetically recreate extinct creatures brings the whole notion of endangered species to be newly reconsidered. Do we really have people protect the last white rhino or just whip up a whole batch of new white rhinos? It would seem more relevant to address animals already part of our ecosystem than to reintroduce creatures that require megafuana to survive and therefore have to create conditions in which there can be megafuana because we don't live in that climate anymore.

"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

In such a scenario, no, they should not be saved. They’re genetic monstocotes that pose to much of a threat to worldwide human and exological systems. In fact they should all be hunted down and exterminated.

Also, unrelated, the movie sucked.
Most of the time I have no idea what the hell I'm doing or talking about.

”Many forms of government have been tried and will be tried in this world of sin and woe.
No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is
the worst form of government, except for all the others that have been tried from time to time." -
Winston Churchill, 1947.

"Rifles, muskets, long-bows and hand-grenades are inherently democratic weapons. A complex weapon makes the strong stronger, while a simple weapon – so long as there is no answer to it – gives claws to the weak.” - George Orwell

I got dragged along to that dumpster fire of a movie, was not impress at all, but then again, I have never been a fan of the movie series.

They were extinct so they should remain extinct.

Besides, we could just clone more anyway.

Disney would most likely assign the employees they were looking to fire to be in charge of the dino part of the park. It's a win-win, the dinos get fed and Disney saves a ton on unemployment benefits. :p


I'm sure the amount they'd lose in lawsuits for having an unsafe work environment would be much more than the money they save from dino food costs and unemployment benefits.
Gun control is like trying to solve drunk driving by making it harder for sober people to own cars.

Any accident you can walk away from is one I can laugh at.
