While I'm on board for a return to the horror aspects, I did read that it's a bit of an island of misfit toys... or dinosaurs that mutated during the creation process.

If you can't make a movie that's scary enough or has enough action with actual dinosaurs, you are doing something wrong. Making a dinosaur "hybrid" of some kind will not save your film. You are fundamentally bad at what you do for a living.

Hopefully this film is about actual dinosaurs and not out of control grasshoppers. I have a feeling I will end up watching this on a plane in the future, and fall asleep half way through.
Literally, the original set of dinos from the 1993 JP is MORE than enough dinos to satiate old and new fans.

Why do we have to get bigger, scarier, and more mutant-y?

Keep it simple, stupid.

It is Gareth Edwards and the writer for JP and TLW, so that's the only reason I'm giving it a shot. But I fear there was too much studio interference and it'll be another cluster####.

Only people who know Tim Robinson's other work will know that trailer is incredible. It probably won't help it get a larger audience but I'm in.

Just as soon as I saw his face I started laughing. I can't wait for this.

OMG, this is going to rule.

I find that trailers are often released too far in advance of the actual release date.

Big, dumb & scary is tired.

I actually think they should take a page from House of the Dragon where you feel a sense of emotion & personality from each dragon; do that with the dinosaurs.

Make them characters in the movie or a series of movies & have audiences feel something for the animals.

I watched a number of "I think you should leave" skits to get more familiar with Tim Robinson.

Some were top tier sketches. The hat sketch has to be the best. The Drivers Ed tables one is also outstanding.

Others I didn't like as much. Became later era Adam Sandler-y.

I have faith that we'll get his A game in Friendship. He has a great cast to play off of.

I predict there will be zero culture war fallout from this on Twitter and Youtube.
