The clone girl and chick with the knife didn't need to be in this at all.

Blue is practically a character at this point too since her and Owen can talk to each other telepathically.

And now Owen and Allan are going to have dick swinging contests in every scene they share to be the coolest dinosaur expert guy in the room.

Then add in Goldblum who's just there to drop philosophical one liners at awkward moments when their lives are in danger and chew gum in his leather outfit and stake his claim as the sexiest 70 year old alive.

I even forgot about Bryce and her massive ego. She's already outrun a t-rex in high heels. What's next? She probably beats the s##t out of a dilophosaurus with her purse after it spits goo on her outfit.

And of course Ellie. Poor Ellie. The only down to earth character who is just going through the motions and reacts like a sane, rational person would in such a situation.

Too many cooks in the kitchen man, too many!

And I bet Trevorrow doesn't have the cajones to kill off a single one of them.

Dino Avengers: Endgame.

Is it the dinosaurs themselves that are threatening the extinction of mankind? That seems silly. I mean dinosaurs would be impossible to fight if you were unarmed....but if you had militaries with high calibre rifle rounds, they wouldn't stand a chance. Also, I get that they are smart, but they are still animals that could be baited into traps.

Is there some kind of other overarching threat (global warming?), and the dinosaurs just happen to be around mucking things up in the chaos? I really hope they don't go back into the genetic manipulation well, and have something ridiculous like the dinosaurs spreading a virus that denatures human DNA. This series needs to stop using the lame DNA monster trope.

I think it's just continuing down the evil InGen associates attempting to capture and turn them into military weapons plot, while the heroes attempt to lure them to a new sanctuary where they can be left in peace to spontaneously change genders and make mutant Dino babies.

I've waited so long for something like this. If it's half as good as the Garry Shandling doc Apatow made we are in for a treat.

And of course the trailer is NSFW.

As soon as he turned to culture observations he became transcendent.

He is the mount Rushmore of comedy and then there's everyone else.

I really respect George Carlin and his career but his comedy must be generational or something because anytime I hear any of his bits, I rarely laugh. I appreciate that they are clever and insightful but I don't laugh out loud like with other comics. The documentary looks interesting though.

Comedy is dead. Your generation is probably the reason. I'm loud, inappropriate, obnoxious, and like to drink a bunch. I F'n love Carlin.

Lol. Is that the plot? The super intelligence they gave to the indo-raptor has somehow been transferred to all the dinosaurs, and they are just kicking our asses now? I really hope that's not the plot.

Have you seen some of the stuff Radcliffe has done? He's really made an effort to do some offbeat stuff. I think he's a good actor across genres.

I bet he nails it.

Guns Akimbo really shook the Harry Potter typecast off of Radcliffe for me

I thought Radcliffe was really good in Escape from Pretoria, and I even enjoyed his role in the last season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

Really like Radcliffe, but he is a TINY dude. Weird Al is famously huge. Figured that would play a big role in casting.
