lol "sciency extremism" What did you expect?
"There wasn’t a single dinosaur that was even attempted to be accurate in there, but I lover the movie anyway?"
And it’s not just the science, as I clearly wrote the plot was poor and predictable too.

Because if you consider the best scene to be the one with the bird (not a crow afair) reminding the dinosaurs origins and not one of the many action scenes, this just demonstrates that you have the sciency obsession in mind at any time during the movie.
Frankly there has been mny exaggerations about the inccuracies. Other than the lack of feathers, that's proportionnally similar than to the earlier movies. Even the movies trying to be scientifically updated WWD the movie or Intersteller always get major criticism at the end.
Regarding the plot, well it's a semi-reboot of JP so it's predictable but not poor and introduce new themes.
I just say that you missed some points of the movie (the culture of the excess in our society, the nostalgia, the referal to the modern warfare and the use of animals in it) and just wanted to be harsh on the science and the classic plot. The acting also was definitely not bad at all, BDH was very good, Pratt as good as he is now and clearly in an Indiana Jones-reboot test. Others chracters were not enoughly exploited but the movie should have been quite bit longer for that.
I understand that anyone can't be convinced but overall it's objectively a pretty decent, efficient action-adventure flick and it is certainly not the worst in the series.
And with 1 500 000 at the BO, it definitely revived the franchise. However I admit I'm a bit worried for the next installment.

The WWD movie got it's major criticism because of the silly talking dinosaurs. Btw, in some forums I saw some threads debating whether Owen or Claire was the main character. Come on, we all know the lead of JP/JW has always been, and will always be, the tyrannosaur. EDIT: Another thing, related to JW, found this: I'm an Alamotops (hybrid of Alamosaurus and Triceratops) apparently.

Nice!
I'm megalodactyle. Pretty BA in my opinion.
And I guess they don't think "W" is a letter.

You can think about this film what ever you like, that’s your opinion. Just don’t always try to make it a fact–not everybody who doesn’t agree with you is automatically a moron who just didn’t understand it.

I don't think theropod was talking to you. The month of October is also missing. Megalodactyl huh? Hybrid of Megalosaurus and Pterodactylus? My creature is pretty badass when you think about it. As well as eating plants(obvious), I hunt Indominus (Ceratopsids are probably omnivores that may presumably have eaten creatures much smaller than them to supplement plants. Along with my Alamosaurus genes that give me massive size, Indominus would be pretty much meal-sized to me). My long horns mounted on top of a long, thick, and strong neck would be a biological weapon for all the inhabitants of both Isla Nublar and Sorna to fear and behold. I just massively extended the range of the Triceratops horns...

I perfectly understand some of the criticism, but it doesn't change that focusing on science that much brings to be unable to appreciate the other parts of the movie and its quality as sheer entertainment. For comparison I liked Godzilla 2014 but I find Jurassic World superior on several points. Its current of 7.4/10 on IMDB and 71% on RT is justifiable.

I wonder if some conspiracy theorists can see a message in this. Does that mean they are next time going to introduce the very dangerous "Dinosaur-N"? Oh, and I'm a Postodon.

Behold, the new dinosaur for JP5, the very dangerous "Dinosaur-N"! (Nebulasaurus) Image by TraheripteryxOr at least within the scope of what I wish for JP5. Well, a man can dream... It's a very close relative of Spinophorosaurus, it's possible that it had similar thagomizers on it's tail. And let's make it very aggressive, JP NEEDS aggressive herbivores. They already implied their Baryonyx and Suchomimus to be somewhat docile(they put them on a river cruise attraction which has the same level of security as their herbivore attractions). If they can get docile carnivores, why not aggressive herbivores? This would be an interesting change.

I’m apparently just a Dicera. No ending for me, not even a third horn… Whoever made that chart just didn’t know all the months. I guess considering there are people who mistake Australia for Iran that shouldn’t surprise me that much. Grey, as I wrote several times, it was not just the science. I knew what to expect on that part, as I also wrote. That isn’t an excuse though (weren’t you the one who once wrote that Jurassic Park isn’t about monsters?), and it certainly doesn’t excuse what it imo lacks in other regards. It simply wasn’t more than a pretty average action/monster film for me, unlike the first two and very similar to the third. You can say "you’re wrong, you just didn’t understand the deeper meaning of it" if it makes you feel better, that doesn’t make it an objective truth. And as for those inaccuracies, they were not exagerated at all. A step back from the early 90s, not an advancement.

"Two-horn tooth"? Forget elephants. This is what you'd call an amazing combination between size, defense, and offense.

One of us could create a mini series on these hybrid creatures fighting.
Broly's yours is BA and you can get your revenge in I-rex.
My beast is 30 feet long 10 feet tall, and 3 tons. It is the largest dromeosaur ever it is a intellegent and gregarious predator. They are like a giant version of utahraptor. Except slightly bulkier. There prey is anything they can get there claws on. Even the powerful neblursaurus they prey on the juviniles and even subadults.another prey item for them is dicera. And compete/prey on postsodons.
