That sucks, I liked his character.

Just rewatched the movie recently, and I really think the writers missed an opportunity for a 3rd act twist.

Bryce Howard's character -- who was somewhat responsible for a lot of the disaster-- should have been the one snatched up and eventually killed by the mosasaur. They could have cast a better-known actress as the kids' minder/babysitter, given her a secondary storyline to make her more likeable, and had her take over the female protagonist role after finding and reconnecting with the kids in the park.

The way the movie is now, it feels wrong that Howard's character gets away without any consequences and even gets to be with the leading man.

@NoAssemblyReqd -

I like the film but your idea sounds much better.

@NoAssemblyReqd - agreed. It's always been the point of these movies that man shouldn't try and control nature. It feels off to me that our protagnonists here are a control freak business woman who doesn't care about the lives of the dinosaurs and a velociraptor tamer. Neither of them ever get any sort of comeuppance and it feels like they should have.

@The72nd - Well, to be fair, Pratt's character has a respect for the raptors and never loses sight of the fact that they are deadly creatures. It's D'Onofrio's character who wrongly assumes the raptors can be tamed.

In the first movie, I never thought it was fair that John Hammond survived while the gamekeeper, who was against keeping raptors and was even pushing for their destruction, died.

@NoAssemblyReqd - that's a fair point about pratt's character. Hammond dies in the novel, but survives in the movie, which always struck me as odd.

Tacky, univentive movie. And now the director of Star Wars Ep. 9. NOT thrilled.

@Lem1 - I mostly liked it, especially in comparison to JP2 and JP3. Those two sequels showed that dinos running amok is not interesting on its own. The controlled theme park environment failing miserably due to human hubris is what made the first one good, and JW took that to its logical next step.

@Lem1 - 'Safety not Guaranteed' is a classic, he's a very creative guy who understands CHARACTER. JW characters are pretty bland tho, which is a real shame, he could've made something much smaller and personal, but the Studio obviously calls the shots and probably just wanted to make a "safe" sequel, which kinda makes sense for a franchise revival.

@Lem1 - You know, the directors are being told what to do, right? All these decisions you see on the screen aren't necessarily his. The have people who produce, write, act, etc. Most directors do not control everything you see on the screen.
