Spoilers for all preceding Jurassic Park films, including Jurassic World, will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned!Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is the 2018 sequel to Jurassic World, and the fifth film in the Jurassic Park franchise. Juan Antonio Bayona takes over the director's chair from Colin Trevorrow, who remains on as executive producer alongside Steven Spielberg. Trevorrow is credited as co-writer with Derek Connolly. It was released in the USA on June 22, 2018.Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard and B.D. Wong reprise their roles as Owen Grady, Claire Dearing, and Dr. Henry Wu. They are joined not only by newcomers played by James Cromwell, Toby Jones, Geraldine Chaplin, and Justice Smith, but also notably by Jeff Goldblum, who reprises his role of Dr. Ian Malcolm from Jurassic Park and The Lost World.Three years have passed since the fall of Jurassic World. Isla Nublar has once again been abandoned, the park left in ruins and the dinosaurs to their devices. Now, the island that was once home to the original Jurassic Park and its successor is ready to go up in a massive eruption of lava due to a volcano that awakened on the island. Because of this, one of John Hammond's old partners offers to help rescue the dinosaurs. Claire Dearing recruits Owen Grady to join in on the rescue mission due to the fact that his old companion, the Velociraptor Blue, is still alive on the island. Now, it's a race against time and the vicious creatures still on the island to rescue as many as possible to release into a sanctuary, before Isla Nublar finally goes up in a catastrophic inferno...Or at least, that's the story they are told...In February 2018, a third Jurassic World film, later titled Jurassic World Dominion, was announced with a tentative release in June 2021 (later delayed to June 2022 after the COVID-19 Pandemic temporarily halted production). An augmented reality game, Jurassic World Alive has been released on 24 May 2018. A teaser short film, Jurassic World: Battle at Big Rock, was uploaded in September 2019.In June 2018, a prequel novel The Evolution of Claire written by Tessa Sharpe was released that is set between the events of Jurassic Park III and Jurassic World that centers on the character of Claire Dearing and her first year of internship with Masrani Global one year prior to the opening of Jurassic World.It's the first Universal picture, involving dinosaurs, to be filmed in a widescreen CinemaScope aspect ratio since Dinosaurus!, released nearly 50 years prior.Previews: Trailer 1, Trailer 2.Please move any character tropes to the proper character page. | |

Villain: Exit, Stage Left: Subverted. Eli Mills looks like he's about to make his getaway with the I. rex's DNA sample, much like Wu did in Jurassic World, but nope: Rexy bursts from off-camera and delivers a particularly brutal Surprisingly Sudden Death, stomping on the sample afterwards for good measure. Played straight, however, in the case of Dr. Wu as in the previous film, in an interesting string of having him as a continuous Karma Houdini. | |

Miles Gloriosus: Wheatley presents himself as a Great White Hunter and a badass, but it doesn't take long before it's apparent he's a complete phony who has zero expertise on animals or hunting and is in it just for the money and the glory. This gets him killed when he thinks the Indoraptor is tranquilized immediately and he doesn't bother to double-check. | |

Became Their Own Antithesis: When we last saw Ian Malcolm in The Lost World: Jurassic Park, he risked his life to lure the Buck Tyrannosaurus back to the ship and save it from being gunned down by the authorities in San Diego. By the events of Fallen Kingdom he is now at a U.S. senate hearing advocating for the dinosaurs on Isla Nublar to be left to die. | |

Dirty Coward: Mills may be a sociopath who has no qualms with killing people that may be an obstacle to his schemes, but, he is ultimately a fearful weakling who will run away whenever he's confronted with something that he perceives as a direct threat to his life. Case in point, he first runs away from Owen when the guy unleashes Styggy to crash his auction and gets rid of his mercenaries. And when he later shows up with two more mercs, this time determined to staight-up murder Owen and Claire and reclaim Maisie, the Indoraptor has been unleashed by this point and kills the two mercs accompanying Mills, causing the scared asshole to turn around and flee the scene. | |

Bloodless Carnage | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: Some kills should have realistically been a lot messier, especially Wheatley's death by the Indoraptor, as it involved a completely severed limb and Wheatley crawling on the ground for a minute. The Indo noticeably has some blood in his teeth immediately after, but is still far milder than it should be. | |

Trailers Always Spoil | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_143939c1 | comment |
Trailers Always Spoil: Zigzagged initially, but eventually played frustratingly straight. At a glance, the first trailer seemed to spill quite a bit of the action for the film. Then, Colin Trevorrow himself comes out to say that everything seen is from the first hour of the movie, only (although Malcolm's final line wound up closing both the trailer and the full film). All good, so far. The next trailer gives a few hints and peeks at what might happen afterwards, but without giving it all away. Well and good. Then the final trailer spells out almost every action beat and plot point the movie has, in many cases showing how the heroes escape each dinosaur encounter. To make things worse, the trailer and TV spots even show the Mosasaurus attacking surfers and the T. rex stomping into a zoo's lion enclosure. These shots appear within the last minute of the film, making up its cliffhanger ending. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The film is the darkest in the Jurrasic Park franchise so far, and the third act is very much a horror film that feels like a gothic horror/Alien movie at times. It also ends with an ecological disaster, the likes of which the heroes and Costa Rican Air Guard way back in the first book tried to prevent—dinosaurs getting onto the mainland. Notably this was the second film in the franchise to have received the 14A rating in Canada instead of the PG rating, however upon the DVD and Blu-ray release it was bumped down to a PG. | |

Chaos Architecture: The Mosasaurus lagoon is in a completely different location than it was in the prior film, where it's depicted as being deeply nestled in the centre of the island. Here, it directly borders the ocean, allowing the Mosasaurus to escape into the outside world when the lagoon's gate is accidentally opened. | |

Tempting Fate: One of the mercenaries in the minisub at the opening says there can't be anything still alive in the lagoon, which isn't unreasonable as it has been months since the Mosasaurus was last fed, so it must have died of hunger. Guess what happens next. | |

More Predators Than Prey | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_16720859 | comment |
More Predators Than Prey: A notable example of this being both a reality and a problem. As noted by the DPG website, the original Nublar ecosystem had a handful of predators, only one of which was particularly large and a good variety of herbivores. Like Sorna, the dinosaurs found an equilibrium and had a small but functional ecosystem. Jurassic World not only housed far more species than Jurassic Park, many of those species were medium to large sized carnivores. It's stated that this has led to a much greater imbalance and many species have fallen back into extinction. Given the size the Allosaurus reach upon maturity, it's likely that the island was going to self destruct regardless. | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: Played with. At first, it seems that Dr. Wu seeks Blue's DNA to make controllable Indoraptors, which makes little sense, as Blue was trained and reared by Owen since infancy and such gained her bond. Her behavior is due to social conditioning, but logically, her DNA would be like any other raptor DNA. The only way it would make any sense is if one considers that it was her specific genetic makeup that made Blue more docile and empathetic than the other raptors, but even then replicating that using Blue's DNA would require unbelievably good luck. Later on it turns out that Wu needs Blue precisely because her behavior was socially conditioned. He says that in order to make the following generations of Indoraptors more controllable, they need a mother they can learn such behavior from. Multiple human characters are sedated with animal tranquilizers, with Wu specifically naming the particular narcotic used as carfentanil at one point. Carfentanil is extremely potent and has a lethal human dose in the micrograms, meaning any human injected with a dinosaur-sized dosage of it should have experienced fatal respiratory failure. This is specially ridiculous after Zia complains that the sedative dose is too high for a dinosaur. Although Zia was able to pull the dart out of Owen's chest before it injected the full payload, this does not appear to be the case for Wu, and both men recover fairly quickly and suffer no lingering side effects. Subverted in the T. rex to Velociraptor blood transfusion scene, as explained by this article (in short, you could probably do a successful transfusion the first time, if you tried a second time it'd likely be fatal). The film's ending seems to imply that dinosaurs are going to reclaim the Earth. The number of dinosaurs released at the end wouldn't be enough for viable genetic diversity if they were all the same species and they're not. | |

| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The trailer shows a scene in which Owen approaches Blue and tries to reconnect with her after years of absence. We see him get his hand close and then suddenly she jerks back and wails, which implies she will attack him. In the final film, we see the reason she reacts that way is that she was shot with a tranquilizer dart, which was conveniently erased from the trailer. | |

End of an Age: The volcanic destruction of Isla Nublar signifies the end of what was once home to Jurassic Park. Also, the release of the dinosaurs into the modern world signals the effective end of the Anthropocene—humans will have to learn to co-exist with dinosaurs now instead of dominating them. | |

Soft Water | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_1c2b6ac8 | comment |
The classic Soft Water trope occurs as well. That's a long ways down and while the gyrosphere will probably survive it, the vertical deceleration of the humans inside is another story. Owen has no practical chance of surviving this, both for fall distance and also, being a human on foot, not being able to jump far enough to get clear of the cliff. | |

Apathetic Pet: Played with. While the velociraptors were not Owen's pets, they were trained and practically reared by him. The majority of them maintained their killer instincts and would attack or threaten Owen when he pretended to be in distress, uncaring that he was their caregiver. This was subverted with Blue, being the only raptor to show empathy and emotion towards her caregiver. | |

Black Comedy: The Indoraptor is one hell of a Troll and seems to enjoy this greatly. At one point he even smirks at the camera as he's about to kill Wheatley. The film in general has a spectacularly dark sense of humor, from a semi-paralyzed Owen lurching away from an approaching lava flow to the Stygimoloch tossing attendees of the Auction of Evil like ragdolls. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The very first promotional image gives us Maisie standing in front of an Agujaceratops fossil. That fossil is what's used to finally kill the Indoraptor in the climax. Franklin watches while Zia is describing the different tranquilizer darts. He later finds those same types in the laboratory and puts one to use on Henry Wu, to rescue Zia. Claire witnesses during the Auction of Evil that the Indoraptor can be controlled using a gun with a laser beam pointing at his target before triggering a signal to order him to attack. She recovers that gun in the climax and uses it in a Batman Gambit against the Indoraptor by pointing the laser beam at Owen to trick it into leaping at him so that it would break the fragile glass roof and fall to its death. It doesn't work out when the Indoraptor manages to climb back up, but the roof structure was weakened enough by his weight that when Blue leaps onto him, the roof they're on collapses and the Indo falls into the Agujaceratops fossil to his death. | |

Guns Are Useless: The tranq guns/darts are only somewhat effective in neutralizing Blue and don't do squat against the Indoraptor, although he acts otherwise. The assault rifle Owen uses against it is similarly ineffective. | |

Mill's and Eversol's decision to auction off the Indoraptor (over Wu's objections), instead of just saying "not for sale" and leaving it at that, and Wheatley going into its cage to take a tooth from the damn thing certainly qualify. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The orange counter-shaded coloration of the Stygimoloch matches the incarnation from Warpath: Jurassic Park. During their brief battle, the Carnotaurus and Sinoceratops use several moves straight out of the game. The Concavenator resembles Warpath's incarnation of the Spinosaurus, especially with the snout. Once again, a man named Owen is dragged to a Jurassic Park site to thwart corporate forces attempting to capture the dinosaurs for purposes that will endanger the mainland. Wu explains that he needs Blue for two purposes—one, to use her genome to create the next generation of Indoraptor that is less unstable and can feel empathy for its trainer and handler (presumably he got this idea from the close bond between Owen and Blue that caused her to turn on the Indominus at the climax of Jurassic World). The second purpose is so that she can be a 'mother' to this next generation of Indoraptors. This ties back to the second book where it is said the raptors are unstable and violent because they lack parent figures to nurture them properly. Wu evidently does not want to repeat the mistakes done with the first generation of Velociraptors as well as the Indominus. Large masses of dinosaurs get onto the mainland, exactly what the heroes and the military try to prevent in the very first book. The Lost World featured a T. rex rampaging through the streets of San Diego. At the end of the film, Rexy bursts onto the scene in a zoo that appears to be, or at least strongly resembles, the San Diego Zoo. An unconscious Owen is woken up when a Sinoceratops licks his face, just like Sarah is licked by a Stegosaurus in the second book. Wu wants to makes dinosaurs 'friendlier' a la Version 4.4, albeit with a very different context. The human Big Bad hides under a car and is forced out of it before being chomped by a T. rex (with one of his legs getting fed on by a Carnotaurus and Compsognathus too, for that measure). The Big Bad has a conversation with Wu where he discusses the applications of extinct animals with no rights in the modern world, ranging from agriculture to big game hunting, just like another conversation in the Lost World novel where his Composite Character counterpart discusses a similar topic. There's even one to the Telltale game—once again, Rexy crushes a small object that contains genetic samples that the Big Bad wants. Troodons are also in Lockwood's dioramas. Like in the game and the novel, Hammond has screwed over yet another business partner—albeit for moral reasons this time around. Ian Malcolm giving a Character Filibuster about the evils of private science and unchecked genetic engineering is very in-line with the book version of Ian, and a Crichton staple overall. Many of Malcolm's lines are directly from the first book, mostly towards the end when Malcolm is dying of T. rex-inflicted wounds and high on morphine. In particular, his statement that "great change is like death; you can't see what's on the other side until you get there" ("are at the gates" in the film) and that people think of great, sweeping, paradigm-redfining change as a rare event completely outside our control, when in fact it's inherent in all complex systems, are almost word-for-word quotes. The beach our heroes wake up on after escaping pyroclastic flow is identical to the one the protagonist in Jurassic Park: Trespasser wakes up on after the plane crash. Genetic tampering to create a hybrid dinosaur bioweapon is the plot of the Chaos Effect toyline—and the Indoraptor's stripes and dark coloring recall its own mutant apex raptor, the Alpha. A black hacker teen shows up, just like Arby from the book version of The Lost World, and saves the day twice with his knowledge of electronics. He also recalls Ian's daughter in the film version, and carries out the same role as the film version of Lex: screaming, neurotic, and great with computers. The HVAC failing to pump poison gas out is a big plot point in the Jurassic Park ride. A mad dash to escape an erupting volcano on a vehicle while dodging angry herbivores recalls the first Jurassic Park arcade game. Eureka, California was one of the primary filming locations for The Lost World, about a rescue mission against the corrupt remnants of InGen. It is heavily implied Lockwood's estate, where the climax takes place, is in Eureka, as it's not far from Orick, California, where the heroes attempt to run off to. The slimy Corrupt Corporate Executive seeking to usurp a Hammond figure recalls Ed Regis' and the film version of Gennaro's cowardice, Ludlow tarnishing the name of a Hammond figure to profit off of importing dinosaurs to the mainland to attempt to continue InGen and Masrani's doings, and the novel version of Lewis Dodgson, who outright wanted to weaponize the dinosaurs and use the gene research for nefarious purposes. Mills dies in a manner similar to Dodgson* Yes, the Dodgson who pays Nedry and gives him the Barbasol can in The Lost World novel, hiding under a car before being eaten by a T. rex when he emerges. Granted, Dodgson gets pushed out by one of the main characters, but still. The rest of Mills' death references the deaths of Ludlow and Eddie from the film version—swung around like the former as he screams for his life, then shared between two theropods like the latter. Wheatley carries on a long line of Great White Hunters hired to help wrangle or deter dinosaurs—Muldoon from the Jurassic Park book and film, Roland from The Lost World film, and the mercenaries from Jurassic Park III. Unlike any of them, (and more like the second film's Dieter Stark) however, he's a sleazy, animal-abusing douchebag. Wheatley's death mirrors that of the previous film's Vic Hoskins, starting with him arrogantly thinking he has control over a dangerous animal he knows nothing about; just like with Hoskins, said animal bites his hand off, then proceeds to make a meal out of him. Blue as a baby acts very similarly to the friendly baby raptor from the novel version of Jurassic Park—always trying to get close to the humans and never showing any signs of aggression. Blue, however, isn't torn apart for smelling like a human. Carrying over from Jurassic World, the high-tech displays—especially when Mills shows the tracking movements of the dinosaurs across the island—are straight out of The Lost World game adaptation. Baryonyx also showed up in the game of The Lost World, as did Allosaurus and Carnotaurus. Zia, an animal vet, combines the book and film versions of Sarah Harding in both spunk, willingness to use violence, and risking their lives to save an animal. Indoraptor bears a passing resemblance to the "Deinonycanis", a unreleased hybrid action figure from Kenner's Jurassic park: Chaos Effect toyline back in 1998. This is in addition to its dark, evil coloring also strongly resembling the Raptor Alpha from the same toy line, as mentioned above. On the subject of toys, the Carnotaurus's color scheme either borrows heavily from or is outright based upon that used for the corresponding figure from The Lost World toyline's second wave. This is not the first time Jurassic Park has dealt with the cloning of humans, as the game Scan Command and Dinosaur Battle featured the antagonist Irene Corts cloning humans for a project named "Project Primo". Blue regarding Zia as a friend due to Zia trying to protect the velociraptor and treating her injury, is like the Jurassic Park comic book in which a raptor pack leave Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler unharmed in gratitude to them saving the raptors against a gang of poachers. Rexy is shown to be attracting flies while in transit to Lockwood Estate and is described as having vile breath, just like her original novel counterpart. | |

Same Plot Sequel: Fallen Kingdom has been called essentially a remake of The Lost World: Jurassic Park, with a heavy-handed, almost obnoxious Green Aesop about an expedition being sent back to the dinosaur-filled islands after the original park broke down to retrieve as many specimens as possible, while a bunch of Smug Snake Corrupt Corporate Executives attempt to profit off it. The dinosaurs break free and cause a rampage on the mainland, leading to a Karmic Death for the cartoonish capitalist villains, and an ending speech by one of the previous film's characters that people will have to learn to live with dinosaurs roaming the Earth. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: Downplayed as the reason is more from pragmatism than morality, but Wu objects to the sale of the Indoraptor as it is an unstable, uncontrollable prototype. Rather than wanting to create scarier or deadlier dinosaurs, he wants new Indoraptors down the line to feel empathy and mutual respect with their handlers... so they can be more efficient, controllable and marketable bioweapons. It makes sense when you consider a savage, uncontrollable animal that is likely to turn on you as soon as it can is much less desirable than a stable yet just-as-deadly animal that can work with a handler it trusts. Wu also correctly points out that selling the Indoraptor too early would break the monopoly on genetics that InGen has long since held. When the people on the boat notice the Brachiosaurus dying in the volcanic ash, even the mercenaries who were sent to capture the dinosaurs and tried to kill Owen were taken aback and remained totally silent. | |

Five-Second Foreshadowing: The Indoraptor notices that the glass ceiling on the roof is weak and can be broken through. With some help from Blue plus a bit of quick thinking and trickery, the Indoraptor falls through the ceiling to its death. After the dinosaurs are freed and Mills comes out from nearly being crushed by a car after taking cover under it because of the stampede, something catches the attention of the trio of Compys above the wrecked car, and they promptly run off. Not long after, Rexy snatches up Mills out of nowhere. | |

Actor Allusion: Despite this presumably being their first face-to-face meeting, Sir Lockwood warmly greets Claire by saying how nice it is to see her again; James Cromwell previously played police chief dad, Capt. George Stacy to Bryce Dallas Howard's Gwen Stacy in Spider-Man 3. Like Chris Pratt's Emmet Brickowski, Pratt's Owen has a moment in which he awakens to full consciousness but unable to move, and then with an extreme effort he is able to roll and twist just enough to save himself. While being held in captivity beneath Lockwood Manor as Mills tells Owen and Claire of his Evil Plan, Owen seizes Mills and threatens to break his right arm. Mills' actor Rafe Spall already had his right arm broken after encountering an alien in Prometheus. | |

Psycho Prototype: The Indoraptor himself is a prototype that is by and far still not ready for practical application in the field—it is far too violent and lacks the empathy required to work with human handlers.

Having witnessed the result of unfinished prototypes going on rampages, Wu objects to the Indoraptor's sale, but Mills overrules him after seeing how much money the bidders are bidding. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: When Blue meets Owen again after three years of living wild, her old trainer tries to stir back memories by tossing her some food. She ignores it. In a world where genetic technology is advanced enough to not only bring back extinct dinosaurs but to create whole new species out of whole cloth, it was only a matter of time before someone started cloning humans. Among the dinosaur species they couldn't save, Brachiosaurus was one of them, almost certainly because they are far too large to be caged and shipped under a very short time frame. Surprisingly, the Apatosaurus manages to avert this — although it is pointed out in dialogue that this particular specimen is still immature and has not yet reached its full size. Subverted in that Brachiosaurus is revealed to have been rescued as its name is listed on the computer screens at Lockwood Manor, and one makes a very brief appearance during the dinosaurs' escape, almost crushing Mills. The injured guests (and, presumably, the families of deceased guests/employees) from the events of Jurassic World launched a class action suit against the park, forcing it to close. The park would have closed anyway once the active volcano was discovered. At least the last disaster had preempted its closure so no last-minute park employees got caught on the island during the eruption. Owen tries to get Blue to come with him after all the mayhem; Blue takes a look at him, notices a nearby cage similar to the one she was confined to not much earlier, and decides Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |

Actionized Sequel: Sure, the previous film had plenty of action, but this one takes the cake. The first act alone has the protagonists avoiding the carnivorous dinosaurs while trying to outrun a volcanic eruption. Later in the film, Owen turns into a One-Man Army and, with the help of a distraction caused by a young Stygimoloch, beats up stun-prod-armed mercenaries with nothing but his bare fists. Finally, there is the final battle against the Indoraptor, which ends with the thing being brutally impaled in an Agujaceratops skull. | |

Headbutting Pachy | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_45413f59 | comment |
Headbutting Pachy: Downplayed, but still ultimately present with the Stygimoloch who manages to ram down a brick wall and a steel cage doornote Though after being motivated by Owen., though it did take the dinosaur a unspecified amount of time it is the only dinosaur to have broken out despite the fact that several dinosaur powerhouses (T-rex, Triceratops, ect.) were also kept in similar cages. Possibly Justified for the same reason listed in The Lost World: Jurassic Park. | |

Gory Discretion Shot | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_49f20c6a | comment |
Gory Discretion Shot: A few here and there, the most notable being the mercenary that shoots Blue appears to have his face getting bitten off by the raptor. Wheatley's death is mostly shown from a distance with the either the Indoraptor, the cage bars or an onlooking Eversol (due to perspective) blocking most of it from view. Apart from a Freeze-Frame Bonus, him being disarmed plays more to Bloodless Carnage, since we should see arterial blood spraying everywhere even with that side of his body facing away from the camera. The film fades to black when Eversol and the people in the elevator are torn to pieces by the Indoraptor. Averted with Eli who gets the most graphic death in the series since The Lost World: Jurassic Park. | |

Advertised Extra: Jeff Goldblum returns as Dr. Ian Malcolm for a grand total of two scenes, which he described as a "sprig of parsley" that could easily be removed entirely, since he doesn't even interact with any of the remaining cast at any point. This didn't stop the first of these scenes from appearing in every trailer and Goldblum from appearing in-person at several promotional events and interviews for the film. Geraldine Chaplin received a fair amount of press coverage after she was announced as part of the cast, but her character has only three or four brief scenes before being unceremoniously dropped from the story half-way through the film. To a lesser extent, the Dilophosaurus as well. It was heavily discussed and strongly suggested at appearing in the film (even the opening scene) but all we see of it is one of many inanimate dinosaur sculptures at Lockwood's manor. This is par for the course for the series since 1997. There is a sound very similar to their characteristic hooting cry in the first scene, but it's so quiet that it's easily missed. | |

Artistic License – Paleontology | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_4c4bebf4 | comment |
Artistic License – Paleontology: Jack Horner (the technical adviser and onset paleontologist for the previous Jurassic Park films) recommended that they not use Stygimoloch for the film, since there is an increasing amount of strong evidence to suggest Stygimoloch was just a juvenile stage of Pachycephalosaurus.note Both genera are known from the same time and place, the only Stygimoloch specimens known are of juvenile animals smaller than adult Pachycephalosaurus, it's known many dinosaur species went through significant anatomical changes as they grew (including other pachycephalosaur species), and several independent studies have correlated evidence supporting this idea. The idea was, in fact, originally proposed by Horner However, his request was turned down. Ultimately, in the movie itself, the specimen is actually never identified by species, so any viewer could very well just assume it is a young pachy. The Sinoceratops in this film has exposed holes in the fenestrae of its frill. The Baryonyx in the film has a broader head, both its arms and neck are also shorter, its teeth are more like a needlefish, and it is horribly shrink-wrapped (which could alternatively be the result of it starving). This film's Stegosaurus seemingly lack the beak they had in real life... and indeed, the previous Jurassic Park films. Unless if the beak is actually still there and just blended into the skin, like with the film's Gallimimus. Despite being based mostly on a theropod, the Indoraptor is shown walking and running on all fours. With the pronated-hands issue aside, another problem would be the structure of a theropod's shoulder blades, which would end up injuring its own neck muscles in such a posture (a reason why many paleontologists rejected the idea of Spinosaurus being quadrupedal when it was found to have very short hind limbs). Ankylosaurus looked nothing in life like how it is depicted in the film; the "walking tank" appearance with a shell of bony armor and spikes running down the sides was dispelled at least 2 decades ago. For some unknown reason, the Mosasaurus, which was only somewhat over-sized in the previous film, is now practically Kaiju-proportioned. Subverted with the Carnotaurus, which is considered by real paleontologists to be one of the most realistic portrayals of a dinosaur in the franchise. | |

Smug Snake: Mills, big time. When Wheatley catches Owen and Claire about to rat the whole operation out to the police, he promptly brings them both to his superior, who, rather than killing our heroes right there, instead imprisons them inside a cage, and while he does call them out on their poorer choices, he nonetheless takes his sweet time rubbing his "victory" in their faces and saying how "powerless" they are to stop him. Eventually, Owen finds a way to free himself and Claire and (literally) crash Mills' auction, all thanks to a rather frenetic Stygimoloch. Wheatley himself believes he's the greatest hunter ever, but in the end, he is merely a Dumb Muscle with delusions of grandeur. | |

Auction of Evil | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_51566669 | comment |
Claire witnesses during the Auction of Evil that the Indoraptor can be controlled using a gun with a laser beam pointing at his target before triggering a signal to order him to attack. She recovers that gun in the climax and uses it in a Batman Gambit against the Indoraptor by pointing the laser beam at Owen to trick it into leaping at him so that it would break the fragile glass roof and fall to its death. It doesn't work out when the Indoraptor manages to climb back up, but the roof structure was weakened enough by his weight that when Blue leaps onto him, the roof they're on collapses and the Indo falls into the Agujaceratops fossil to his death. | |

Wheatley carries on a long line of Great White Hunters hired to help wrangle or deter dinosaurs—Muldoon from the Jurassic Park book and film, Roland from The Lost World film, and the mercenaries from Jurassic Park III.

Book Ends: A Brachiosaurus is the first dinosaur Owen's team sees on the island and also the last as they leave. In a meta-sense it's also the first dinosaur visitors to Isla Nublar saw in the first movie, and the last dinosaur visitors to Isla Nublar saw as the island was reduced to a burning wasteland. The film opens and closes with Ian Malcolm testifying before a senate subcommittee about his stance on the dinosaurs' continued survival on Earth. The main theme plays at the title and once again at the ending. Both times, the theme signifies dark times to come. | |

Most of the mercenaries comprising Mills' and Wu's forces get this as well. After capturing and mistreating the dinos, many of them are viciously murdered by a highly-intelligent, psychopathic dino they are utterly powerless to stop. The remaining two mercs accompanying a fleeing Mills are ultimately dropped from a great height and trampled to death (respectively) by the dinosaurs when Maisie sets them free to save them from the toxic gas. | |

Instant Sedation: The Indoraptor falls asleep about two seconds after being hit with two tranquilizer darts by Wheatley. Seeing as Wheatley is an Egomaniac Hunter who is a fake expert to boot, he assumes this trope is in place and climbs inside the cage to get a tooth for his collection. By the way, the dinosaur isn't tranqed at all. Compare his efforts to Roland Tembo's successful tranquilizing of an adult male ''Tyrannosaurus rex''. | |

Forgot About His Powers | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_650a309b | comment |
Presumably he still has cuttlefish, tree frog and snake DNA, as the traits granted by those genes (skin camouflage, thermal camouflage and thermal vision, respectively) would be useful for a combat-oriented dinosaur; however, he never seems to use any of these abilities onscreen. | |

Animal Wrongs Group | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_661a66d8 | comment |
Animal Wrongs Group: Downplayed. The DPG does not free animals in a way that would immediately endanger innocents ( although the idle rich attending the dinosaur auction are apparently considered fair game), and Claire herself is unable to set the dinosaurs loose on the mainland at the end, because she knows the cost will be too great. However, Maisie then lets them loose anyway, almost certainly leading to many innocent deaths (albeit later on), and no-one attempts to stop or scold her note though one could argue this is likely out of shock at the suddenness of what happened. | |

Formula-Breaking Episode: While Isla Nublar is a featured setting, the film's plot and story aren't centered around the island this time around to avoid plot repetition with the previous films of the franchise. In fact, the scenes on Isla Nublar barely make up a quarter of the film's runtime. | |

Mook Horror Show: A relatively small-scale version; Zia and Franklin are being menaced by a brutish mercenary threatening to tase them with a cattle prod, so Zia, being handcuffed to Blue's cage, opens it, freeing the raptor. After finally emerging from her confinement, Blue proceeds to viciously mutilate the aforementioned merc and, when one of the man's comrades enters the room, gets knocked down and yanked towards Blue to be mauled to death as Franklin and Zia make their escape. | |

Villain Has a Point | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_723be11b | comment |
Villain Has a Point: Mills is a greedy sociopath, but he's not wrong when he calls out Claire and Owen after capturing them. Claire did arrange for the creation of the Indominus rex and was complicit in the exploitation of the Jurassic World dinosaurs. Owen, for his part, trained raptors for years but was enormously negligent in never considering what they were ultimately being trained for. He also seems to straight-up blame the late Hammond for every single Ingen-related disaster that has happened ever since he "played God" when he created the first park. | |

Idiot Ball | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_7286e96d | comment |
Idiot Ball: Mill's and Eversol's decision to auction off the Indoraptor (over Wu's objections), instead of just saying "not for sale" and leaving it at that, and Wheatley going into its cage to take a tooth from the damn thing certainly qualify. Blue is critical to Mills and Wu's plans for the Indoraptor project. They have a paleovet to treat her after she's shot, but who is vehemently opposed to their work (to the point of holding a gun on an entire group of armed mercenaries. So of course, it makes total and complete sense to leave her completely alone with their critical specimen, give her no staff or equipment with which to attempt to save Blue's life aside from a few terrycloth towels to try and stop the bleeding, and force her to rely on the protagonists who shouldn't even be on the boat in the first place to get blood from Rexy so she can give Blue a transfusion to get the bullet out. | |

Remember the New Guy? | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_77b03c0a | comment |
Remember the New Guy?: In a sense regarding some species of dinosaurs. This film reveals the presence of several species of dinosaurs who were not shown or even mentioned in Jurassic World, such as Brachiosaurus* though we did hear its iconic sound effect early in the film, the Apatosaurus reused the call in a few scenes, making it unclear which species was heard in said scene, Stygimoloch, Carnotaurus, Sinoceratops, Compsognathus, and Allosaurus. As Dr. Grant noted in III, it makes you wonder what else InGen was up to. Some of these species, such as Brachiosaurus and Allosaurus, did appear in tie-in material, such as the website, toys, and the Holoscape. Benjamin Lockwood is mentioned as being a longtime partner of John Hammond, despite never appearing in any way before this. It's implied they had a bitter past and Hammond no longer wished to associate with him after Lockwood abused their cloning technology to create a Replacement Goldfish of his dead daughter. | |

Point of No Return: At the end, the dinosaurs are dying of poison gas, and the only way to save them is to release them. Owen points out that releasing them will have terrible, world-changing consequences and there will be no going back. Claire ultimately cannot bring herself to free the dinosaurs. It is Maisie who frees them in the end, partly because as a clone she has an intimate connection to the dinosaurs and figures that if she has the right to live so do they. | |

Small Role, Big Impact | |

Small Role, Big Impact: Jeff Goldblum may have described Malcolm's presence as "a sprig of parsley," but he delivers the film's aesop, tying the film more closely with the message of the original novel. To wit, that InGen's dinosaurs are an allegory for unlicensed, unrestricted, for-profit genetic research, done by people who don't care what they've created or what the long-term effects of it will be, just that it's marketable, and the potential disasters this abuse of powerful and dangerous technology can unleash. | |

Fairy Tale | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_838343d6 | comment |
Fairy Tale: In a roundabout way, the second half of the movie is very much like a modernized fairy tale and makes the "Fallen Kingdom" title more poignant. There is a castle (Lockwood Manor) ruled by an aging lord with a nobility title (Sir Lockwood) that has a princess that is an objective of both the heroes and villains (Maisie). There's a scheming advisor (Mills) who's out to seize power for himself. And in the end, a dragon (the Indoraptor) is released from a dungeon-like setting and tries to go after said princess. Owen (the Knight in Shining Armor), Blue (his Faithful Steed/Animal Companion), and Claire (his Fair Maiden) must slay the dragon to protect the Princess. During one easy-to-miss piece of dialogue between Iris and Maisie (The Princess), Maisie pronounces the word bath like an American would. Iris immediately demands that she pronounce it b-ah-th, in an English accent. What does Iris call the accent? The Queen's English. | |

She's still a very dangerous wild animal, but demonstrated empathy and curiosity towards Owen that none of the other Raptors did. He draws the comparison between a wolf and a Bulldog, nearly identical in genetics but possessing key differences in behavior towards humans. | |

Protagonist-Centered Morality: Owen is against rescuing the dinosaurs and later attempts to talk Claire out of releasing them from Lockwood’s manor when it begins filling with poisonous gas, however he still joins the operation to the island to save Blue. It’s especially odd since he encouraged Claire to empathize with the dinosaurs and see them as living creatures and more than just “assets” in the previous film. | |

Karmic Death | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_90d44f44 | comment |
Karmic Death: Given this entry in the franchise has some of the most awful human villains, it's only fitting they all get well-deserved deaths for everything they did. Wheatley shows how much of an asshole he is by approaching a sedated Stegosaurus and painfully yanking out one of her teeth to add it to his personal collection. Later on, at the auction, when he sees the Indoraptor in his cage, he shoots him with a few darts and, believing everything is fine, foolishly opens the monstrosity's cage and gets inside to try and yank out one of the Indo's teeth. This proves to be his last mistake. Most of the mercenaries comprising Mills' and Wu's forces get this as well. After capturing and mistreating the dinos, many of them are viciously murdered by a highly-intelligent, psychopathic dino they are utterly powerless to stop. The remaining two mercs accompanying a fleeing Mills are ultimately dropped from a great height and trampled to death (respectively) by the dinosaurs when Maisie sets them free to save them from the toxic gas. And Mills himself, the biggest scumbag of them all, is ultimately undone by some of the very same dinosaurs he tried to exploit for his own selfish gain, namely one very hungry T.rex. | |

Apocalypse How: The film ends with the implication that anywhere between a Class 1 and a Class 2 will happen in the near future as the dinosaurs migrate to the mainland and begin to intrude into human-established territory. | |

The Bus Came Back: Dr. Ian Malcolm returns in a cameo after being absent from Jurassic Park III and Jurassic World, twenty one years after the events of Site B and the San Diego incident. Brachiosaurus and Compsognathus both return after their absence since the third film (although the former can be heard in the background in Jurassic World). | |

Bus Crash | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_952d21ec | comment |
Bus Crash: According to online supplementary material, Isla Sorna (Site B), unseen since Jurassic Park III, suffered an ecological collapse shortly after the events of that film due to InGen's illegal creation of additional species (including III's signature dino Spinosaurus), and the remaining dinosaurs had been shipped to Nublar before the events of World - thus explaining why Nublar is now the last refuge of the dinosaurs as of Fallen Kingdom. However, this fact goes totally unmentioned in the film proper, leaving casual viewers to wonder why the dinosaurs on that island aren't acknowledged in the "re-extinction" discussions. | |

Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene: The expedition team and the mercenaries silently watching a lone Brachiosaurus watching the ships leave as smoke and lava overtake it, and with it, the remains of both Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. Maisie watching the video of Owen interacting with young Blue, cut between the now-adult Blue getting treated while a visibly anxious Owen watches. When they are imprisoned, Owen and Claire briefly reminisce on the magic of seeing a dinosaur for the first time. | |

PragmaticVillain | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_97a252a6 | comment |
Downplayed as the reason is more from pragmatism than morality, but Wu objects to the sale of the Indoraptor as it is an unstable, uncontrollable prototype. Rather than wanting to create scarier or deadlier dinosaurs, he wants new Indoraptors down the line to feel empathy and mutual respect with their handlers... so they can be more efficient, controllable and marketable bioweapons. It makes sense when you consider a savage, uncontrollable animal that is likely to turn on you as soon as it can is much less desirable than a stable yet just-as-deadly animal that can work with a handler it trusts. Wu also correctly points out that selling the Indoraptor too early would break the monopoly on genetics that InGen has long since held. | |

"Not So Different" Remark: Mills stresses the fact that Owen wanted to control and to tame the dinosaurs, which is similar to Mills's project of developping the Indoraptor.

Gothic Horror: Surprisingly evokes this trope in a modern setting. The third act is set in the opulent Edwardian-style Lockwood Estate during a dark and stormy night, with operatic music and the protagonists evading the Indoraptor which is a product of Frankenstein-esque mad science. The Indoraptor itself howls at the full moon like a werewolf, and it slinks about in the darkness like a vampire. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The Mosasaurus is first seen escaping of its confinement into the real world. In the ending, all of the surviving dinosaurs are released into the real world as well, starting the new age of dinosaurs where they are not confined to an island anymore. Zia mentions the possibility of cloning a caveman early in the movie. While not a caveman, Lockwood had successfully performed human cloning years ago. A meeting about the ethics of cloning is one of the headlines scrolling along the bottom of the BBC News segment. It's later revealed that Maisie is actually a clone of Lockwood's late daughter, rather that his granddaughter. Iris's "I raised them both!" later on is a less subtle example. A few hints that the tranquilizers won't work the way they're intended. For instance, when Blue is captured and shot with several tranqs, she takes a while to go down and manages to fatally wound a man before having to be shot with live ammo. Later the Indoraptor gets shot with only two tranqs and not only is he not affected in the least but he takes it as an opportunity to to lure his prey within biting distance. The title itself, with it's shift from Jurassic Park to Jurassic World. At the end, the Dinosaurs are no longer restricted to a mere park. | |

Hoskins outlines his plans for a miniaturized version of the Indominus rex to Claire and Owen shortly before his death. These plans are realized through the creation of the Indoraptor. The Velociraptor model in Lockwood's museum has the same "tiger" colouring as the Velociraptors from The Lost World: Jurassic Park. | |

Blue is critical to Mills and Wu's plans for the Indoraptor project. They have a paleovet to treat her after she's shot, but who is vehemently opposed to their work (to the point of holding a gun on an entire group of armed mercenaries. So of course, it makes total and complete sense to leave her completely alone with their critical specimen, give her no staff or equipment with which to attempt to save Blue's life aside from a few terrycloth towels to try and stop the bleeding, and force her to rely on the protagonists who shouldn't even be on the boat in the first place to get blood from Rexy so she can give Blue a transfusion to get the bullet out. | |

Player-Guided Missile: A non-video game, non-missile example—the Indoraptor is trained to follow a laser sight, and to attack at the command of a sound clicker. A quick demonstration of this in action is enough to get The Mafiya (and others after him) to start bidding, despite it being an unstable, sociopathic prototype that is likely to turn on its masters at the first chance it gets. | |

Double-Meaning Title | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_a4905771 | comment |
Double-Meaning Title: Jurassic World no longer refers to the park itself, but rather our world now literally becoming a "Jurassic World" as dinosaurs and humans are forced into coexistence alongside each other. There are many ways to see what Fallen Kingdom means. The 'Fall' of Isla Nublar, the island which all surviving dinosaurs are living on and thus their 'Kingdom', which is about to be destroyed by the volcanic eruption and threaten to cause another dinosaur extinction. Thus, the fall of the park itself as well (what was left of both Jurassic Park AND Jurassic World). The 'Fall' of InGen, with the original founders, John Hammond and Benjamin Lockwood both dead. However, they left behind their own legacies in the form of Maisie and the dinosaurs to rule this new 'Kingdom', the planet Earth. The second half of the plot taking place at the Lockwood estate resembles the fall of a fairytale kingdom, with the manor architecturally resembling a castle complete with an actual dungeon; Benjamin Lockwood being the sickly King; Mills being the King's corrupt right hand who takes power for himself; Maisie being the Princess; the Indoraptor being the dragon who hunts the Princess; and Owen, Claire and Blue being the heroes from a far off land, who slay the dragon but fail to prevent the king's demise. By the film’s conclusion, the dinosaurs are released into the world, implying this will lead to the fall of the world of man as the dinosaurs have now officially returned to take it back with their dominance. | |

In a sense regarding some species of dinosaurs. This film reveals the presence of several species of dinosaurs who were not shown or even mentioned in Jurassic World, such as Brachiosaurus* though we did hear its iconic sound effect early in the film, the Apatosaurus reused the call in a few scenes, making it unclear which species was heard in said scene, Stygimoloch, Carnotaurus, Sinoceratops, Compsognathus, and Allosaurus. As Dr. Grant noted in III, it makes you wonder what else InGen was up to. Some of these species, such as Brachiosaurus and Allosaurus, did appear in tie-in material, such as the website, toys, and the Holoscape. | |

Like a Son to Me | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_a8adc5a0 | comment |
Wu explains that he needs Blue for two purposes—one, to use her genome to create the next generation of Indoraptor that is less unstable and can feel empathy for its trainer and handler (presumably he got this idea from the close bond between Owen and Blue that caused her to turn on the Indominus at the climax of Jurassic World). The second purpose is so that she can be a 'mother' to this next generation of Indoraptors. This ties back to the second book where it is said the raptors are unstable and violent because they lack parent figures to nurture them properly. Wu evidently does not want to repeat the mistakes done with the first generation of Velociraptors as well as the Indominus. | |

Character Filibuster | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_abc55125 | comment |
Ian Malcolm giving a Character Filibuster about the evils of private science and unchecked genetic engineering is very in-line with the book version of Ian, and a Crichton staple overall. Many of Malcolm's lines are directly from the first book, mostly towards the end when Malcolm is dying of T. rex-inflicted wounds and high on morphine. In particular, his statement that "great change is like death; you can't see what's on the other side until you get there" ("are at the gates" in the film) and that people think of great, sweeping, paradigm-redfining change as a rare event completely outside our control, when in fact it's inherent in all complex systems, are almost word-for-word quotes. | |

Oh, Crap! | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_ad1db87c | comment |
Oh, Crap!: Owen is very understandably terrified when Rexy starts waking up while he's in chomping distance. Blue somehow notices that the gas that is spreading around her is about to blow up, and barely manages to outrun the ensuing fireball. One for everyone—guess what's escaped into the world's oceans? Yes, that's right, the enormous shark-eating Mosasaurus, and she seems to have grown even bigger since she was last seen in the last film. | |

Don't Celebrate Just Yet | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_ad8df7ab | comment |
Don't Celebrate Just Yet: Three times: A mercenary is chased by the T. rex and jumps onto a helicopter's rescue ladder. Everyone cheers. Suddenly, the Mosasaurus erupts from beneath the surface of the lagoon as the helicopter flies over it, eating the guy. Claire and Franklin are trying to escape the Baryoynx in a room full of lava. They clamber up a folded emergency ladder, and Franklin cheers and celebrates... only for the ladder to suddenly slide down due to his weight, dropping him back down into the room. Gunnar Eversoll manages to reach the elevator and type in the code to close the doors before the Indoraptor can get to him and the three clients inside. They all share a nervous laugh... only for the Indoraptor to smash the controls for the elevator with its tail, causing the doors to open and the Indoraptor to slaughter the four of them. | |

Super-Persistent Predator | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_ad982e04 | comment |
Super-Persistent Predator: The predators of Jurassic World will apparently ignore the imminent danger of an approaching volcanic eruption for the chance to nab some food. Justified in the case of the Indoraptor, as it is explicitly designed to be a killing machine. The Baryonyx is implied to be starving enough to force its way through dripping lava to get to our heroes. | |

Stupid Evil: Mills allows the Flawed Prototype Indoraptor to be sold for tens of millions of dollars. Wu tries to tell him that it's an unfinished product that will end in disaster. He also points out that all it will take is someone else using the Indoraptor to reverse engineer their genetic hybrids and they will lose their monopoly on the technology. | |

Convection, Schmonvection: When Owen's paralysis wears off, he is only a few inches from lava at most and yet he does not suffer any ill effects. Not to mention he was lying on ground that, apparently, was hot enough to cause discomfort to a large dinosaur's feet (if the calm Sinoceratops suddenly stomping the ground before running off is any indication). Even more so with Baryonyx that attacks Claire and Franklin, which takes lava in the face multiple times and only flinches. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Mills is, for all intents and purposes, Maisie's adoptive father should anything happen to Lockwood, which does happen, unfortunately, and while he does show a few Pet the Dog moments toward Maisie, he ultimately treats her more as his property rather than an individual simply because she is a clone, not to mention it is implied he primarily wants to keep her to have Wu perform rather atrocious experiments on her to improve the genetic code of any future bioweapons they may cook up. By the time Maisie has found much better parental figures in the form of Owen and Claire and refuses to come with Mills, the man loses his patience and reveals her true nature rather sadistically. | |

The U.S. Senate leaders completely ignoring Malcolm's refuting the idea that Sibo's eruption is an "act of God" — in fact still outright calling it that despite Malcolm's direct statements to the contrary —- seems to be a general Take That! towards the legislative body, but especially the conservative majority that held power at the time of the film's release (the other shots at the president of the same political party make this likely). | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: The entire first team sent to Jurassic World believing it would be an easy job, disregarding that the island is inhabited by dinosaurs, and so none of them were alert or prepared for the danger. Despite the threat of imminent death by volcano on Isla Nublar, a Carnotaurus chooses to waste time fighting a Sinoceratops and then trying to make an easy meal of some humans, something which ultimately nets her defeat by Rexy the Tyrannosaurus. Everyone bidding on the (prototype, mind you) Indoraptor has a deathwish. It's pretty clear what's going to happen the instant it gets out of a cage, and the sociopathic violence of the I. rex is not a secret after the disaster at Jurassic World. Wheatley decides to take a collection of dinosaur teeth as a souvenirs by pulling them out of tranquilized and restrained dinosaurs. He later tries this on a just-sedated Indoraptor... that isn't restrained, or indeed fully tranquilized. Even if the Indoraptor was tranqed, his pulling its teeth out with a pliers would probably wake it up. Not only does this get him killed, it also lets the Indoraptor loose. The Indoraptor has been released from his cage, and a group of people are hiding from him in a lift. When Eversoll pushes a red-headed woman out of the way so he can access the control panel, she screams at the top of her lungs, alerting the predator to their presence. Needless to say, they all die. Lockwood has been completely hoodwinked by Mills, and is oblivious to the vast conspiracy and arms dealing racket happening in his own house. When Maisie tells him what's going on, he doesn't believe his granddaughter. Then, when he does finally realise what is happening, he demands that Mills call the police and hand himself in. Not surprisingly, Mills doesn't, and smothers him to death instead. | |

Demoted to Extra: Rexy, despite having a bit more screen time than in Jurassic World. In that movie she was key to the climax; in this one, she only makes token appearances throughout the movie. She does kill the human Big Bad, but only by sheer coincidence. The Mosasaurus, while not having many scenes to begin with in Jurassic World, only appears at the beginning and end of the movie for a few seconds each, and does not take part in the main plot at all. | |

Animal Stampede: Owen, Claire, and Franklin have to flee from a stampede of dinosaurs (and Pteranodons) at one point. Near the end of the film, a second stampede happens as the remaining dinosaurs flee from Lockwood Manor. Mills takes cover under a vehicle to avoid being trampled... only to be shredded to pieces by Rexy, a Carnotaurus and the Compsognathus as soon as he makes himself visible. | |

Hope Spot: At the beginning of the movie, a mercenary narrowly avoids being killed by Rexy and then his comrades in the helicopter, who tried to cut the ladder he was holding on to. Fortunately, the part of the ladder Rexy is chewing tore off, and the mercenary is safe... until the Mosasaurus jumps out and devours him. After the Indoraptor escapes, Eversol manages to hide inside an elevator where three buyers are hiding, closing the door a second before the hybrid can enter. The Indoraptor then accidentally smashes the elevator control with its tail, opening the elevator, and killing everyone inside. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The underwater opening credits sequence is one to the opening credits of Jaws. When the Indoraptor escapes, it climbs onto the roof and roars infront of the full moon, evoking werewolf imagery. By J.A. Bayona's own admission, the part with the Indoraptor climbing upside-down into Maisie's bedroom is one to a similar scene in Dracula (1979), where the Count climbs upside-down into a bedroom. It's stated that the Indoraptor and its shadowy stalking of Maisie are meant to evoke Nosferatu. | |

It Can Think: Being part Indominus rex, the Indoraptor is at least as intelligent and cunning as his genetic predecessor, with a cruel sense of humor to boot. The beast seems to know what tranquilizer darts are and actively fakes being tranqed when Wheatley puts two in his neck. He then continues Playing Possum until the human is in the perfect position for the last and most terrifying surprise of his life. The Indoraptor can be visibly seen smirking during this | |

The slimy Corrupt Corporate Executive seeking to usurp a Hammond figure recalls Ed Regis' and the film version of Gennaro's cowardice, Ludlow tarnishing the name of a Hammond figure to profit off of importing dinosaurs to the mainland to attempt to continue InGen and Masrani's doings, and the novel version of Lewis Dodgson, who outright wanted to weaponize the dinosaurs and use the gene research for nefarious purposes. | |

Cannot Kill Their Loved Ones | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_cbfe592b | comment |
Cannot Kill Their Loved Ones: Owen apparently feels this way towards Blue, the Velociraptor he raised. When asked by Claire early on in the movie, he declares he can and will do nothing while Blue perishes with the other dinosaurs. But he ends up joining Claire's efforts to rescue Blue and other dinosaurs anyway, and he continues going out of his way to ensure Blue's wellbeing whenever they cross paths and he even tries to get her to rejoin him with no strings attached, showing a level of concern and compassion for Blue which he doesn't extend to any of the other dinosaurs. | |

Word of God | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_cc4b45f6 | comment |
The news report at the start of the film includes the scrolling message "US president questions the existence of dinosaurs in the first place." This has been confirmed by Word of God to be a thinly-veiled shot at the White House's 2018 occupant and his stupidity. Later, the repugnant Wheatley calling Zia, "Nasty woman," as an insult seems an added reference to the same by quoting. The former is also meant to be a Take That! to a disturbing amount of anti-science/anti-intellectualism sweeping the world at the time of the film’s production (which, again, has been stoked by the source of the "nasty woman" quote). | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: At the beginning of the movie, a submersible enters the Mosasaurus' lagoon. One mercenary is confident that whatever is inside the lagoon should be dead by now. True enough, the team manages to collect a sample of the Indominus rex's genetic sample and send it to the surface, with the silhouette of the Mosasaurus in view by the buoy. Just as the submersible is about to leave, the Mosasaurus is right behind them, with her jaws wide open. | |

Cassandra Truth: Lockwood does not believe Maisie when she tells him about Mill's real plans for the dinosaurs. Then subverted later when it turns out Lockwood did believe her, but presumably did not want her to get any more involved in a potentially dangerous situation. Of course, given his arrogance and naivety, Lockwood may simply have asked Mills out of curiosity who his guest was, and only realised what was really going on when Mills told him. | |

Cheerful Child: Maisie lacks any emotional baggage, loves her doting grandfather, trusts his shifty-looking assistant and is all-around a fun bundle of sunshine. She becomes a terrified, traumatized wreck in light of the dark secrets under the mansion, discovering her own screwed-up past, finding her grandfather dead, of course, and being hunted by a mutant dinosaur and her greedy sociopath of an adoptive father who wants her for his own nefarious schemes. | |

Writers Cannot Do Math | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: Hammond apparently broke ties with Lockwood after he used the cloning technology they intended for dinosaurs to revive his dead daughter, Maisie. However, this must have happened well before the events of the first film, nearly thirty years prior, yet Maisie is still a little girl in the present day. Jurassic World Dominion apparently retcons this so that Maisie's mother/donor was the one who cloned her (in the late 2000s), so the math now works out, but it in turn causes a major Series Continuity Error because if Lockwood didn't clone her daughter, why did Hammond break ties with him? | |

Last of His Kind: Blue is explicitly stated to be the last surviving Velociraptor. Rexy is also presumably the last Tyrannosaurus rex. This also applies to the dinosaur population on Isla Nublar in regards to Los Cinco Muertes since it's the last ecosystem populated by dinosaurs on Earth, and it's driven even further when only a scarce few of eleven species are saved from the volcanic eruption. | |

Whole-Plot Reference: The first act of the plot is essentially a soft remake of The Lost World: Jurassic Park down to the character ensemble and the overarching narrative of a large expedition trying to capture and relocate as many dinosaurs as possible from their island. The island expedition makes up just a half hour of the film's runtime, and it becomes very different after leaving Isla Nublar to burn. | |

Artistic License – Cars: Like the previous film, one of the vehicles from the original park is seen, this time the Ford Explorer 04 that fell into the T. rex paddock. It looks like it was just recently flipped over, with the livery still visible. After 25 years in a Central American jungle, it would have rusted into nothing, as with the Jeep in the previous movie. Also it fell down a brick wall, which is missing, and into a tree, which is also missing. note That's not the actual prop from the first movie, if you're wondering. The real Explorer used in that scene was saved after filming Jurassic Park, then chopped in half and had a fake roof added. It is currently part of the Universal Studios Hollywood Back Lot Tour, along with the actual vehicles from the sequels. | |

Mix-and-Match Critters: The Indoraptor, who was birthed from a sample of the Indominus rex. It's not specified what was modified about its genetic makeup, so one has to guess based on his physical characteristics. (Strangely, he is partially quadrupedal and displays rather feline movements.) His overall body plan is dromaeosaurid, with a large size similar to that of Utahraptor. His head resembles that of Tyrannosaurus rex, but slimmer. Dermal armor from abelisaurids like Carnotaurus, Majungasaurus, and Rugops. Presumably he still has cuttlefish, tree frog and snake DNA, as the traits granted by those genes (skin camouflage, thermal camouflage and thermal vision, respectively) would be useful for a combat-oriented dinosaur; however, he never seems to use any of these abilities onscreen. Opposable thumbs and uncanny intelligence from an unknown source. | |

Up Close with the Monster: The Indoraptor bites the human Dragon's arm off, then pauses to show off its teeth as it has the terrified man pinned up against a wall. In this case he really does eat him, the Indoraptor is just intelligent and sadistic enough to play with its food. | |

Tranquillizer Dart: Used to capture Blue. Wheatley also secretly uses them to make it easy to steal dinosaur tooths. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: The volcanic eruption is a (well-depicted) explosive flank blast, making the Outrun the Fireball cloud very much a fireball-esque pyroclastic flow. Forgiving the fact that the "cloud" in real life would be moving at 50 mph (the average human can't run faster than 24), it is also a mix of dense rocky volcanic matter (read as: very hot glass particles) with a temperature approaching 1,300 degrees Celsius. Human beings do not survive being enveloped by this, and Owen would have been at best ended up like a victim of Pompeii (turned into a dry mummy on the spot, with all the water of his body evaporating in an instant, 60 per cent of a human adult's body is water on average) if he isn't flat-out incinerated while the gyrosphere would have melted into slag. The down-the-cliff escape to the water also probably will not work as pyroclastic flows descend mountains all the way to sea level and then skim across the water surface depositing heavier hot material as they go. It's not going to be over by the time you need to resurface even if you did get deep enough to survive. The classic Soft Water trope occurs as well. That's a long ways down and while the gyrosphere will probably survive it, the vertical deceleration of the humans inside is another story. Owen has no practical chance of surviving this, both for fall distance and also, being a human on foot, not being able to jump far enough to get clear of the cliff. Given the weight of a full-grown T. rex (around 9 tons or 8,160kg), carrying one in a helicopter in a safety net may not be a very good idea. | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter: Owen's baby Velociraptors are just plain adorable on the videos that show them back when he began raising and training them. Blue in particular stands out due to her empathy and confidingness. | |

Artistic License – Economics | |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom / int_fd76df83 | comment |
Artistic License – Economics: The prices the dinosaurs were being sold at were much lower than they probably should be. Around $10 million each (which pleasantly surprises Mills who was expecting sales to be in the $4 million range) and with the Indoraptor being the most expensive at around $28 million. It is still more than most people can afford but for a newly created dinosaur the prices are much lower than they probably should be (for comparison, human athletes regularly get contracted for an order of magnitude more than that). | |

Defiant Captive: Zia, big time. She willingly lets herself be taken prisoner by Wheatley and his men because she's the only one who can nurse Blue back to health after one merc gives her a particularly awful wound. As she remains imprisoned by people who have no qualms with killing her at the whim of an order, she nonetheless snarks at them a lot and makes it clear she doesn't enjoy working for them in their faces. Later on, Wu handcuffs her to Blue's cage and demands her to help him extract Blue's blood to start his work on the next Indoraptor batch. Zia nonchalantly tells him that she gave Blue a T.rex blood transfusion to save her life, effectively making her useless for Wu and Mills' Evil Plan, shortly before an undercover Franklin takes Wu out and frees Zia. | |
