The next one should be about some movie producers trying to film an adaptation of the events at Jurassic Park. They use real dinosaurs, but they break loose on the set and wreak havoc.

eh I don't agree. Still a crazy milestone that barely any movie reaches. but I do concede it's becoming more common.

We are at the point that a few franchise films could clear $1B and still be considered huge disappointments.

No one is going to congratulate the Avatar 2, Avengers 4, or Episode 9 teams if their films wrap up at $1.0B.

Fallen Kingdom was always headed for a big drop, and an eventual $1.2B is still great for a film of that size. I will be curious to see if the third one can also stay over the $1.0B mark though.

I've not seen it, but honestly i'm curious just because i've heard the final act is just so terrible.

It was my second favorite Jurassic film. Actually really enjoyed it.

The Indorapter roaring from the top of the castle with close moon shot just made me grin. Pretty much movie perfection in that moment

Yup. Criticism means nothing. Reviews mean nothing. People love dinosaurs.

Correction "lazy criticism" means nothing. I haven't seen a very good reason yet for why this movie should be considered bad. It's not like Transformers were the action is a mess and the story is a huge joke.

There is a good story in this movie.

Movie is dumb as hell, but it's fun, so it's whatever.

Can't wait for Jurassic Planet next.

This movie is horrifically bad, even for a dumb pop corn film.

The first 5 minutes were undeniably awesome though. Tonally felt like a completely different movie, and I wish that was the movie we would've gotten.

Had some a handful of decent tense moments, but man the plot, acting and dialogue in this movie was awful. I hated the first one and was shocked that this one seemed dumber than that one. It felt like an action movie that would have been made in the 90s.

Bah! I'm conflicted over this one. I hate to see such a shitty movie make so much money, but at the same time, this movie was so bafflingly stupid, that it ended up being entertaining. And I want to see where the hell they take this.

Not deserved IMO. But hey, if dinosaurs brings in cash, someone needs to give us a live action Dino Riders movie.

But... why? The movie sucks so bad! And yet we live in a world where Mad Max Fury Road struggled to surpass $300m.

Not a good movie, but it was fun. I just hope this willmake other studios fund somdino movies. We need more. Bring back Dino Riders, Caddilacs and Dinosaurs, Turok, adapt a big budget version of Primitive War, or hell, cook up something new. Just make more dinosaur movies!

Personally thought the movie was okay, but I'm not too surprised it crossed $1bn. If anything, I'm surprised it didn't cross $1bn a bit sooner. My weekend matinee showing a few weeks ago was the most packed theater for any movie I've seen this year (including Infinity War).

Hopefully they'll use all that money and actually deliver an interesting movie for Part III. The Fallen Kingdom is only a good flick of you willingly suspend disbelief and turn off your brain.

This piece of ... makes 1 billion, but Solo: A Star Wars Story (which is actually "good") somehow bombs...

Jurassic World FK was just fucking bad. 3/10 movie. First one was a 4/10.

They'll keep making these every 2 to 3 years until talented production gets bored with it, its delegates to a D class director and writer, and they subsequently shit the bed. Then 15 years later it's back. Repeat.
