I hate when people water down masrani as “a guy trying his best” because the real takeaway should be that no matter how much a billionaire may treat others nicely, no billionaire is ever going to be a good person. HE is the one who stopped the evacuation when one of his subordinates tried to call it in. his reasoning is that “we’ve invested too much in it”. it could’ve ended there, but he chose an investment over guaranteed safety.

he may like the dinosaurs, but they’re still profit to him. how else could he be a billionaire? on an individual level, he’s a fine person. he encourages his employees to get out more. but he still wouldn’t value them above an investment because he’ll send a squad of them to their death in an attempt to salvage it. no billionaire can exist without some level of disregard for employees

Rewatching the jurassic world movie for the first time since it came out. I've forgotten so much it's honestly like watching it for the first time.

Seeing Masrani in the pink shirt and the sunglasses instantly made me think of episode 1 Kenji and how much kenji does look up to Masrani.

Also one of the raptors is referred to as male at one point? (At least in the italian version) But aren't they all female?

TOP TEN MOST INCREDIBLE JURASSIC WORLD FACTS

1. InGen Was Not the First Human Presence on Isla Nublar

For thousands of years, Isla Nublar was the home of a tribe known as the Tun-Si, or 'Water Men.' Although descended from the Bribri people of Costa Rica, the Tun-Si lived in near perfect isolation, developing their own cultural practices and dialect separately from the mainland. This ended in 1525, when the Spanish ship La Estrella made landfall on the island. There followed four centuries of hardship and displacement for the Tun-Si, until InGen reached a purchasing agreement with the Costa Rican government for ownership of the island. The remaining Tun-Si now enjoy generous stipends and benefits on the mainland, while a year-round exhibit at the Innovation Center provides an in-depth look at this fascinating culture.

2. Jurassic World was John Hammond's Dying Wish

Simon Masrani had been a close personal friend of John Hammond for many years. The two shared regular correspondence even when Masrani was a young boy, up to the events of 1993. While it's unclear how much Masrani knew of the work being done on Isla Nublar, he apparently knew enough for Hammond to trust him with his life's dream.

3. Work on Jurassic World Began as Early as 1997

Despite the San Diego Incident, the revelation of InGen's genetic capabilities only heightened the public's fascination with dinosaurs. Masrani quickly purchased the dying company and conducted several expeditions to study the animals on Isla Sorna. A mere five years later, construction for the new park began on Isla Nublar.

4. Some of the First Dinosaurs in Jurassic World Were Originally Bred for Jurassic Park

Many of the dinosaurs you see at the park once lived at Site B, on Isla Sorna. Not only that, but our tyrannosaurus, Rexy, is the very same that was created for Hammond's park. Don't let her age fool you; she's as feisty as ever!

5. Jurassic World Received Over Eight-Million Visitors in it's First Year

Traffic to Isla Nublar was carefully regulated after the park opened in 2005. Admittance was initially relegated to a strict lottery system, partially to prevent scalpers, but also to study the dinosaurs' response to human activity. Restrictions have since been revised to account for the maximum allowable human population on the island in accordance with both security and dinosaur wellness measures. All told, some 22,000 people visit the park everyday, with a total park capacity of 30,000.

6. New Dinosaurs Are Born on the Island Every Week

As many as two to five hatchlings are born each week at the Hammond Creation Lab or one of our field facilities. As of this time of writing, 250 new dinosaurs have been bred at Jurassic World.

7. Almost All Park Operations are Facilitated Through One Place

Guests might just see the peak of the Jurassic World Control Center rising over the hills beyond Main Street. The Control Center monitors all human dinosaur activity on the island, utilizing the most advanced communications technology ever developed as well as our proprietary DIN-OS computer network.

8. Park Employees May Live on Isla Nublar Year-Round

In addition to full benefits and world-class pay, our valued team members enjoy comfortable accommodations at Jurassic Village free of charge. This private employee complex features a variety of housing options based on job level and security, from intern dormitories and family apartments to townhouses for our most senior staff.

9. Remnants of Jurassic Park Can Still Be Found on the Island

Although many facilities were deconstructed for Jurassic World, the Jurassic Park Visitor Complex still stands largely intact in the heart of the Nublar jungle. Plans are currently in motion to repurpose some of these ruins for expansion, but for now the Visitor Center stands as a monument to Hammond's original vision.

10. New Species are Kept in Quarantine on the Island

Our geneticists continue to push the boundaries of de-extinction, making constant additions to our database of prehistoric genomes. Any dinosaur of a previously undeveloped species is carefully studied and cared for in the lab, before being transported to a specially secured quarantine area for observation in the wild. This area is off-limits to all but our most elite guests, and strict countermeasures are in place for any and all information leaks. We can, however, say that there are some truly exciting new additions coming soon to Jurassic World, so be sure to check this blog regularly for updates!

Retrospective Review: Jurassic World (2015)

This is a movie that I remember watching very clearly. In an absolutely full theater, I watched this in an IMAX screening on its opening Saturday. I was so excited to have a new Jurassic movie after 14 years, with Chris Pratt being hot off GOTG, where he was great, and a concept which was something I always wanted to see, which is a functioning park with Dinosaurs in it. I thoroughly enjoyed the film in its release and clearly a lot of people did too, given the massive success it had. I have watched it many times, and though people have started to put down the film in recent years, I think its the 2nd best of the series, just ahead of TLW. An opinion that reaffirmed rewatching the film last night.

This is a genuinely well made, well paced film, which gave me what I wanted. No, its not as good as the first Jurassic Park film and its certainly doesn't delve into the questions of the science in the type of ways the original did, but it is absolutely fun. The film has an excellent intro, with the birth of the Indominus Rex. It really pulls you into the idea that this creature is unnatural right from the very beginning. The film introduces the two JW kids, in Zach and Gray. Its smart how the film introduces the park through the eyes of the kids, and we certainly see some of the awe through Gray, and it also sets up that the world has gotten used to Dinosaurs, through the reaction of Zach. The film then introduces us to Claire and the grown I-Rex, and subsequently Owen and the pack of Raptors. The film does a neat job showing a functioning Dinosaur park. The parallels to Universal Studios and Sea World are very obvious. The park feels like it could exist. I got a good chuckle out of little touches, like the Jaws reference with the Mosasaurus, and the exhausted and disinterested park employee overseeing the line for the ride. It all rang very true.

I think the film does a good job introducing the I-Rex as a terrifying beast and they expand on the Velociraptor mythology by emphasizing on the intelligence. The bond between Owen and the Raptors, particularly Blue, is well depicted. The film spends the first half hour or so setting up the various characters and their dynamics and the central Dinosaurs, before the Indominus finally breaks out. The breakout sequence is fairly chilling. Trevorrow also does a fairly good job of not showing the Indominus in its full until a little later. There is a sense of mystery surrounding the creature. I also really like the design of the Indominus. It looks distinctive and feels actually like a mix of the T-Rex and a Velociraptor, which are the main Dinosaurs of the series. I think the I-Rex works really well as the villain for the movie because there is a genuine threat level throughout the movie with it rampaging through the Park. The film also has got a bright visual palette and so its a very inviting film in that way. The SFX are also much better so we are able to see the Dinosaurs in broad daylight. The film has a constant momentum to it after the I-Rex breakout. Also, I liked that they managed to talk about how the Dinosaurs in JW aren't exactly how they would have actually looked like. The gradual progression in paleontology since the first JP has led to many new discoveries about Dinosaurs and the film cleverly uses the genetic splicing idea as a way to fill the hole as to why the Dinosaurs as we have seen, don't hold up to what science says about them. I honestly felt it was quite realistic that the film leant into the gene splicing and species hybrids. It just felt like the next logical step in the evolution of the science. They also do a pretty good job showing the commercialization of the Dinosaurs and the Parks.

The action sequences are terrific. The Birdcage sequence, the Raptor attack sequence, all the I-rex attack sequences are excellent, but the climax is what makes me giddy as a school boy. Watching the I-Rex square off against the T-Rex, Velociraptor, and eventually the Mosasaurus is something I never knew I wanted. Its dumb, but glorious in the best way possible. I like to think that all these felt that that the I-Rex was something truly unnatural and didn't belong in the ecosystem. That really made the movie for me and I remember the audience in the theater absolutely loved it.

Now, the film definitely isn't perfect. The Raptor as weapons storyline has always struck me as something that is a bit too unrealistic and goofy even for this series. I just don't buy the idea that the military would want to use carnivorous creatures that can turn on you, as weapons. To the film's credit, Owen and Omar Sy's character seem to find the idea just as ridiculous as I did. The human villains in this movie are weak. The film doesn't really use Vincent D'Onofrio to his full potential. Its never really clear what level of authority he has in the Park and who he really works under. Its all handled in pretty vague terms. There are also some other characters, like Masrani, who feel like they are underused. There feels like there could have been more potential to the character but he's killed off rather abruptly. The two kids are also a little rough in the first 40 mins or so, but once they are forced into survival mode, they actually proved to be pretty good. There is also a somewhat oddly violent death of Katie McGrath's Zara. Its a scene that stands out as something almost a little meanspirited as to how drawn out that death scene was, almost to point of being comical.

The performances are solid. Pratt and Howard aren't exactly being stretched that much but they both have screen presence. Pratt uses his innate likability to good effect. He has a few fun touches in his role, like how he smirks while riding through the jungle with the Raptors, as even he is realizing how awesome this is. Howard's character is truly the protagonist of this film as she has the most clearly defined arc in this film, going from a detached businesslike park runner, to someone who embraces a maternal instinct towards her nephews and learns to appreciate the Dinosaurs as animals. Jake Johnson adds some fun humor to the proceedings as a control room employee. Ty Simpkins and Nick Robinson are solid as Gray and Zach. Irrfan Khan makes the most out of his screentime as Masrani. He shares some good scenes with BD Wong, who returned to the franchise with this film. Vincent D'Onofrio also does the best with what he's got. Omar Sy, Katie McGrath, and Judy Greer round out the cast effectively.

All in all, I am a die hard defender of this movie. No, this is not a JP classic but its a lot of fun. Trevorrow nails the tone and the pacing of the film. It doesn't go on for too long. Michael Giacchino's music is also memorable. Overall, this movie is an 8.5/10 for me.

Incorrect quote from my Dino Squad/Jurassic World crossover fanfic.

Victor Veloci: Hey Simon. It would totally be a responsibility business man thing to do to fly that helicopter into battle with a giant gun, even thought you don't have your pilot license yet. Think of the PR. Do it for the gram.

Simon Masrani: Bet

Veloci:...Because when you die all my company's stock will skyrocket and I can pluck this park from your cold dead hands.

Masrani: What?

Veloci: What?

held on as tightly as you held onto me

Owen attempts to figure out what exactly is going on with Claire while he once again is faced with a prehistoric playground.

i don’t know what came over me but this second part just appeared in my brain???

continuation from part one AKA claire’s point of view

CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR JW: DOMINION

Something is off.

Blue stares at Claire too long, Claire stares at Blue like she knows why.

And as much as he wants to figure it out, Owen can’t tell what the woman he loves and the raptor were telling each other.

+

Claire looks terrified of the dinosaurs in the black market.

Well, more terrified than she usually would be of them.

She’s done so many search and rescue missions and helped so many of these creatures in the past few years that Owen was half expecting her to run through the black market and open all the cages.

Instead she walks slightly behind him and watches the world around her with trepidation.

He does not look at the dinosaurs, and try as he might he does not keep his eyes on Barry.

Owen’s eyes are on Claire trying to piece together what the hell is happening with her.

+

When he and Barry trap the atrociraptors he thinks he has it all figured out.

The look in Barry’s eyes, the terror at the thought that one of these monsters could kill him if moved too slow, is clear on his face.

Claire is simply scared.

And she has every right to be.

They’re up against prehistoric animals once again and now Maisie is missing.

(It doesn’t help either that she’ll still wake up screaming every once in awhile, Isla Nublar still haunting her.)

So, Owen figures, it makes perfect sense that Claire is scared.

Because he’s scared too.

+

Owen has done a lot of stupid shit in his life.

Like a lot.

But driving down an airport tarmac on a glorified dirt bike while genetically fucked up velociraptors chase him feels pretty high up there.

He barely makes it onto the plane, his footing shaky as Claire holds onto him for dear life. He takes a stilted breath, his hands holding her tight to his chest.

She’s scared. And so is he.

They can be scared together. For survival, right?

+

She needs to go. She needs to go and save Maisie, even if he won’t follow.

“You have to be the one to get her. You’re her mom.”

He tries to convince himself that that’s why he’s sending her. Not because he’s not sure he’ll make it out of this plane alive.

If Claire doesn’t make it, he and Maisie would both crumble. But Claire? She could handle life with her and Maisie.

Claire nods, barely. Her cheeks are stained with tears as he leans down and kisses her. It’s shorter than he wants, but it’s all he can spare.

“I’ll see you again.”

He prays he’s right.

And then, the words he was so scared to say for the longest time.

The ones he’d whispered to her under the dark of night when the world seemed to be caving in around them.

The ones he said before she did.

“I love you.”

The assurance that they meant something.

She closes her eyes and he waits.

She opens her eyes and he’s confused.

“Owen.”

There’s one breath between his name and the moment his life changes.

“I’m pregnant.”

Before he can say anything, before he can react, before he can stop her or urge her on or anything she’s gone.

Claire has flown out of a plane from a fucking eject seat with their baby growing in her belly.

“Watts, you get us out of this alive.”

+

When he falls through the ice he sees everything.

His mom and dad, his childhood best friend Patrick, his eight grade ice hockey team, the girl he made out with in the back of his pickup truck junior year, his mothers funeral, his fathers funeral, his Navy buddy O’Reilly, the open sea, O’Reilly’s funeral, Simon Masrani, that prick Hoskins, Blue and her pack, Gray and Zach, Claire.

Claire tying her shirt up, Claire running with a flare in hand through Jurassic World, Claire in an airport hanger holding his hand, Claire showing up and dragging him to a bar, Claire’s perfect skin, Claire and Maisie.

Maisie flashes through a few more times and while he loves the girl his mind keeps taking him back to Claire.

Claire, who loves him.

Claire, who’s raising a moody teenager with him.

Claire, who’s pregnant with his baby.

Watts pulls him up and it’s not until they’re in the service elevator that he breathes steadily again.

+

When Owen pulls the Dilophosaurus off of Claire he wonders for a moment how his life has gotten to this point.

Instead of pondering the thought he pulls Claire into him and breathes a sigh of relief.

“It’s okay, I got you.”

At least for the moment he can rest knowing Claire is okay, that their baby is okay, and that he had them in his arms.

“I got you.”

He’s not sure what compels him to place his hand over Claire’s belly, sending her into full fledged sobs, but he can’t resist the comfort that the action brings him.

+

He wants to talk to her, to ask a million questions and give her reassurances, but they need to find Maisie.

Find Maisie, then talk.

+

Maisie finds them.

It’s not lost on Owen how Claire knows their daughters screams before they can see her.

He wraps both of his girls up in his arms and holds them longer than he usually does.

They’re okay, at least for now.

+

He can’t breathe.

He watches as Claire is pulled across the floor and out the window and he can’t fucking breathe.

His body works on auto pilot, grabbing the rope and pulling Claire back to him.

He doesn’t care that there’s a room full of people around them, he holds her until his lungs inflate again and he’s sure she’s real and there and against his chest.

+

If he closes his eyes for a moment too long all he sees is Maisie trapped on the ladder and Claire falling out the window.

He doesn’t think he’ll sleep ever again.

+

“You’re acting weird.”

Maisie doesn’t say anything until her and Grant and him are heading back to the control room.

“Well kid we’re in a prehistoric playground and you were M.I.A. for the better part of two days and your mom almost got eaten by a dinosaur so cut me some slack.”

Alan chuckles as Owen lets out a breath.

Fucking teenagers.

+

He almost loses it in the rain. He almost pushes Claire and Maisie into the helicopter and lets the t-rex eat him if it means they’re safe.

But everyone is safely inside and everyone is going home.

He breathes out easily, one arm wrapping around Claire while he brings his hand down to press against their baby.

Holy shit. Their kid just survived Jurassic Park 3.0.

+

“Claire, what in the damn hell were you thinking?”

He means for it to come out softer, but the further away they’ve gotten from Biosyn the more he can’t figure out what the hell she was thinking.

“Owen please-“

“You could’ve died! You went out there, knowing you were-“

And it’s true. Claire clearly knew before they left that she was pregnant and still went.

Owen stutters, remembering Blue’s curious look at Claire.

Blue knew too.

“I did what I had to do!”

“You put yourself at risk and that baby and-“

“I had to save our daughter! I couldn’t not save her!”

He knows she’s right, the same maternal instinct coursed through both her and Blue telling them to protect their babies.

Raptors and humans aren’t all that different.

“I couldn’t let you go alone, I couldn’t just… I couldn’t just sit here. So I’m sorry but-“

He knows she couldn’t let him go alone. She couldn’t sit at home wondering if Maisie was okay, if he was okay.

“You’re here now, that’s all that matters.”

He tries to convince himself and Claire of the matter. She’s here and he’s here and Maisie is here and their child stills rests in Claire’s belly and they’re going to be okay.

+

His son sounds like a velociraptor.

He thinks it’s karma, Claire laughs at him.

claire is clearly new wealth (later confirmed by the extended universe) which is subtle but extremely important in characterizing her connections to class in jurassic world. this is compared to simon who is inherited wealth. simon is blasé about the park’s statistics, more concerned with the emotional gratification of the park, while claire cannot help but constantly worry about how well they’re doing. she’s a worker who was recently allowed into the petit bourgeoisie class and she will do literally anything to keep it that way. meanwhile the actual bourgeoisie, like simon, live under the assumption that everything will work itself out. claire is all about the image of wealth (pantsuit, nice car, unapproachable tough persona) because she’s trying to maintain an idea that she belongs in the upper classes. meanwhile born upperclassmen, like simon, feel no need to peacock it because everyone Knows what they are. and it’s this exact need to be perceived as bourgeoisie that makes her so dangerous because she’ll make dangerous decisions in an attempt to keep her newly acquired wealth

Hi,

I just saw your post about rewatching Jurassic World for the first time since it came out.

I really hope this doesn't come across as rude, I really don't mean it to, but have you ever been tested for colourblindness? I think there's tests you can do online for it, not sure how accurate they are though.

It's just that you said Masrani's shirt was pink when it's purple. Again, I don't mean to be rude, I was just asking out of curiosity and slight concern.

Hope you have a lovely day. ❤️

this is.. kind of a weird ask. I can assure you tho that my eyes work perfectly, I had many many confirmations of it by specialists. They actually work a bit too perfectly. they could dial back a little on the working. Also you have to consider the movie does have a cold blue tint to it (not as extreme as other movies, but it's there, so much that there are people who asked if there is a version without it. so it could make it look more purplelish) But I'm curious now on what other people think.

reblob for sample size if you vote

Camp Cretaceous Officially Open (With Special Thanks to the Nublar Eight)!

Our state-of-the-art adventure camp is now accepting reservations for new campers to join the ranks of the now world-famous Nublar Eight.

The story of our test group, documented on Brooklyn's channel, has been an unanticipated success, with many viewers more taken with the young found family's exploits than the camp itself. Here are just a few of our favorite moments from the adventure:

Darius' and Gray's animated debates about dinosaurs, with inaccurate but enthusiastic asides from Kenji;

Yaz and Sammy sharing a tender moment as they encounter Parasaurolophus Lux on the River Adventure;

Benjamin finding Bumpy, his beloved adopted Ankylosaurus daughter, in the jungle, having reached juvenile age;

Brooklyn and Zach working together to herd our Sinoceratops group aboard their Gyrosphere;

Of course, who can forget the finale, when all of the campers were joined by Simon Masrani himself at our new Indominus Arena, there to witness the presentation of the Indomitable Empress herself? Although the campers' reactions ran the gamut from thrilled to awestruck, nobody could quite top co-counselor Dave's high-pitched yelp as Indominus greeted them with an ear-shattering roar.

We're sad to see the campers go of course, and wish them all well. We are honored to have had them here to work out the bugs to Camp Cretaceous, and look forward to hearing from them in future.

In the meantime, make your way to the Travel Packages page and book your teens on the adventure of a lifetime at Camp Cretaceous today!

Science is not the problem in Jurassic Park, money is. This can be seem from the very first book to the lego tv show. The rich people with money use that to control others, and they will endanger their safety and ignore legitimate concerns because they have the power to. The people have no choice. Their whole lives rely on these people who are concerned only with what they deem theirs. They will use money to manipulate others into doing things they wouldn’t do normally (Alan Grant goes to Isla Nublar multiple times because someone promised to pay for his research, Simon Masrani (owner of Jurassic World) convinces construction workers to ignore safety concerns by promising them a triple overtime bonus, the list goes on and on). The whole premise is the critization of focusing on profit and money versus the well-being of your workers which in this case does include the dinosaurs. By focusing on the “science gone wrong” aspect, you miss the point because the science did what it expected to do, but by ignoring ethics and morality, we see the failure of Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. In this essay, I will

Camp Cretaceous Season 5 Spoiler Review | The Jurassic Park Podcast

Hey everyone – and welcome to my in-depth Season 5 review of Camp Cretaceous here on The Jurassic Park Podcast! In this video we are holding back on none of the details from the newest season of the show – so make sure to avoid this article if you haven’t had the chance to catchup on Season 5 yet. With all of that said – let’s dive in!

The first thing I wanted to touch on in this article is the character growth – as this is something which I feel got the right treatment in the fifth season of the show. I love the fact that we finally get a relationship between Sammy and Yaz – exploring some of the intricacies that we can go through when we are discovering ourselves and our own identity. This was handled in an incredibly sensitive and respectful manner and is something which felt like a genuine and grounded portrayal of representation within the show. Hats off to the creators for finding a way to be inclusive in such a meaningful way. The rest of the characters in the show get some fantastic development too. I love how we explore some conflict between Brooklynn and Kenji in this season – and also love how Kenji attempts to find his way as he balances the expectations of his friends with the expectations of his father. The characters were handled really well this season and I am happy we got some good growth for them in their final adventure.

A negative which comes from good character growth, however, is that it feels like the overall plot and story of the fifth season isn’t as strong as it could have been. The real core of the story is the tension between Kenji and his father – and this is something which plays out throughout the duration of the story as we learn more about Mantah Corp and what they have been up to. Whilst this does provide some interesting insight into how other genetics companies have been behaving within the Jurassic universe, it doesn’t quite go to the depths I would have hoped for in the fifth season – and it ultimately feels like another story about chaos ensuing on an island which is plunged into chaos. Don’t get me wrong – I don’t have any problem with this concept in isolation – but I find it hard to enjoy the more confined nature of this story after Jurassic World Dominion opened up the wider world and showed us what was unfolding across the globe. Granted, Camp Cretaceous does still take place between Jurassic World and Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, but I feel like there was perhaps a missed opportunity to setup a more interesting story arc for the final season here.

With this said, I absolutely adore the inclusion of Daniel (Kenji’s Father) in this season as I think he was incredibly well written in this series. I really love how throughout the season we can see hints at Daniel’s true nature – ignoring Kenji in certain moments, but also manipulating his son and taking advantage of situations like the date with Brooklynn to try and emotionally exploit him. We get a sense of the kind of man which Daniel is – and this makes me very curious for the wider canon. Was he attempting to manipulate Simon Masrani whilst he was working with him? Perhaps some of the technology stolen on Mantah Corp island was obtained before the park even closed? These are certainly things which are hinted at throughout the fifth season, and I would not be surprised to learn that Daniel was playing a longer game through his relationship with Masrani. I really enjoyed how this character was portrayed – and am very interested to think about where he may be by the time we get to the events of Dominion. Men like Daniel don’t tend to stay locked up in Prison for very long, after all.

We go from an aspect I really enjoyed to an aspect I was severely disappointed by – the return of the Barbasol Can. When we talk about ‘bad fan service’, this is sadly exactly what this sequence felt like – with the characters literally just randomly finding the Barbasol Can itself in a muddy mound whilst they are crouched down on the floor. Yes, the characters did discover the Barbasol Can near to an area where several Dilophosaurus are encountered, but this didn’t make this feel like any more than an on-the-nose nod to the original Jurassic Park. I have to admit – I was really disappointed with the way this was handled in the show and wish that they had omitted its inclusion entirely. There have been several proposed ideas for stories about how the Barbasol Can could have been recovered and I wish that the door had been left open to explore those in the future, rather than closing it in a shoe-horned and sadly far too brief moment. With that said – I did appreciate the choice of character who stumbles upon the cryo-can, something I will touch on next!

I’m not going to make the full joke – but it is true that we have Dodgson here. I really enjoyed Dodgson’s inclusion in the fifth season of Camp Cretaceous – showing that even before the events of Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, this character was working behind the scenes to prepare BioSyn to take advantage of InGen’s failure. I really loved how the character’s portrayal in the show felt in-line with the way he is presented in the Jurassic World Evolution 2 DLC – creating a man which feels impatient, but also excited when it comes to discovering new things on Isla Nublar. Whilst the legacy of the character and his relationship with Dennis Nedry could have been expanded upon a little in the show, I have to admit that overall, his inclusion was one of the real high points of the fifth season for me. Dodgson and the growth of BioSyn more broadly is something which I find incredibly compelling – so I would love to see more of this in future Jurassic media.

One thing which I found myself wanting more of in the fifth season was dinosaur and location variety. The fifth season of the show acts as a little bit of a trip down memory lane – with season favorites like Bumpy, Toro and the Spinosaurus returning for the final act. Whilst it is nice to see these animals back on the screen it is at the sacrifice of new animals – with the only new animal appearing in this season being the Nothosaurus. The animal has a couple of interesting moments in the show but there is nothing groundbreaking here – and I certainly wanted more. Introducing Lewis Dodgson and BioSyn also made me hungry to see more of the Dolomites Facility and the Pyroraptor, the Giganotosaurus and the Quetzalcoatlus. We never see any of these animals in the show – and whilst they didn’t necessarily appear here, I think it would’ve been interesting if we had learnt that one of the animals which appears in the valley in the Dominion had been a Mantah Corp creation. It’s like I said in my non-spoiler review – this is fundamentally more Camp Cretaceous, and I’m not entirely sure that making it more of the same was an adequate way to close out the series.

We get another welcome inclusion in the fifth season with the return of Dave and Roxie from Season 1 – accompanying Darius’s brother, Brandon, as the trio embark on a quest to revisit Isla Nublar and attempt to rescue the kids. I enjoyed how our time with them felt like a callback to the event of the series as a whole – uncovering Mitch and Tiff’s camp, and also finding the campsite which they built in the ruins of Camp Cretaceous. I would have loved to see more of these characters on the island, however – as it felt as though their quest to rescue the kids was cut a little short. I think seeing more of Dave and Roxie and their emotional reaction to revisiting a Nublar which has fallen into ruin and disrepair since they were last on the island could have made for a really compelling narrative – helping to provide insight into the emotional toll the collapse of Jurassic World had on the employees who worked at the park. Don’t get me wrong – it’s nice seeing them back, but I wish we had spent a little bit more time with them and perhaps had more of a set-up for them returning to the island alongside Brand.

Lastly, we have the ending for the show – and this is something which we have been building to since the end of Season 3. The kids make it home and become known as ‘The Nublar Six’ – making the news as kids who survived on Isla Nublar after the Jurassic World incident. We then get a sneak peek at where they end up – with Bumpy and Ben still on Mantah Corp island with Mae Turner, Brooklynn investigating Lockwood Manor, Kenji helping to continue to fund Mantah Corp Island and Sammy’s Family’s Farm, and lastly Darius – who is out giving talks on dinosaurs as he follows in the steps of Alan Grant. We then have a moment where Darius encounters a Brachiosaurus outside his window – indicating that dinosaurs are now out in the wild. I enjoyed how this ending tied up to Jurassic World Dominion – but I can’t help but feel like this ending would have been more impactful for me had it come after Season 3. Season 4 and 5 do some interesting things but ultimately feel as if they are a detour from the same ending that we were on route to reach at the end of the third season.

So that brings a close to our coverage of Camp Cretaceous – and what a journey it has been! It’s been fascinating seeing how far the characters have come over five seasons – and I enjoyed how many different plot threads and narrative elements we got to explore over the course of five seasons. I really enjoyed this show – and think it was a successful first outing for Jurassic in a televised format. I hope that in the future we also get a more mature live-action television series for fans of the franchise – and have my fingers crossed that this is opening the door for more expanded Jurassic in the future.

That’s my thoughts on Season 5 – but what are yours? Let me know your comments below and stay tuned to The Jurassic Park Podcast for more content in the near future!
