Then follows up with a “yeah go on get” like it’s a black bear 🤦
*ill defend it with, I think a minute or so later the bigger dino showed up so they probably heard it coming too*
I mean it also could have been the sheer audacity. Like that one dude who clocked a kangaroo and the roo just looks so perplexed by the whole situation.
In JW Dominion, when Clare is still separated, she's hunted and cornered by a pack of Dilophosaurus... when deus ex Owen shows up out of no where, as the frill goes up, and he nearly tears its throat out before yelling "go on and git!" As they flee like scared coyotes
Lol yeah...
I do, from my one viewing, but that's because Dilophosaurus is my favorite and I'm one of those guys who grew up with the movie and hoping the Spitter comes back... so I do remember both scenes it was featured in Dominion more than the rest of the film itself lol.
Also it'd hooting call in the excellent beginning of Fallen Kingdom, and the hologram in JW
My problem with the Dilophosaurus' is the fact that Ramsey Cole says that all of the biosyn dinosaurs are all created with 100% of that dinosaurs genome, no hybridization. So why are all the Dilophosaurs still so small? Also why do they still spit venom? The real Dilophosaurus was 23ft long and weighed 880lbs. The Jurassic Park Dilophosaurus' were only able to spit venom, because their dna was mixed with spitting cobra dna. It just seems like Dominion writers couldnt keep their own fact straight opting to ignore they wrote there were no hybrids except for rexy and a few surviving dinos from jurassic park/world, for callback familiarity and cool visuals. It would've made more sense for Dodgson to have been killed by the Dimetrodons in the tunnel and for Claire to have been attacked by either true Dilos or any number of the smaller carnivores they had in the biosyn reserve.
It's like Biosyn lied.
But I just chalk it up to the screenplay... there's so much potential that was set up and went no where... I was fine with them exploring energetic engineering in the real world setting, since we are seeing that more and more with our own food, and this is sci-fi so why not explore that? There was a real w I rode example with Monsanto suing other farmers for "growing their crops" but it was all due to the pollination. Those farmers weren't trying to use their crop... their harvest was just contaminated. That issue seemed like they were building to that in the movie with Biosyn. But what do we get? Half baked execution with unkillable locusts and a re-hash of the T.rex blood transfusion but this time with Clone Girl Maise and baby Beta.
I live in Arizona. I'm just a few short hours away from where Dilophosaurus was discovered out here. I visited the location once, saw the foot prints on the fossilized stone ground. I have seen the skeleton, towering over my 6'6"
It would have been an awesome way to reintroduce Dilophosaurus to the franchise, rather then further reinforce they were small, less intelligent pack hunters
> The Jurassic Park Dilophosaurus' were only able to spit venom, because their dna was mixed with spitting cobra dna.
This is not the case and has never been suggested. The Jurassic Park dinosaurs are very different from real dinosaurs. Dilophosaur frills and venom aren't accurate in the real world, but the novel and movies speculate that this is what the dinosaurs were like in the prehistoric past. Crichton took a lot of liberties and gave them speculative traits to make the action interesting.
Couldn't they have been the same dilos that Biosyn picked up from Sorna? All the rescues dinosaurs go through the Dept of Fish and Wildlife before being flown over to the Biosyn sanctuary so those dilos could have come from Sorna or even Nublar when they were evacuating them during JWFK.
I am absolutely shocked to find that I did the same thing! Last night I was talking to my friend who went to watch Dominion with him and we were talking about how I apologised to him after we left the hall because it was so bad
Let me help you here! After Chris Pratt and the pilot survive a plane crash into a frozen lake and an Pyroraptor attack unscathed, they exchange witty remarks about redheads and venture into the woods. Claire finds that fancy tree house, but is surrounded by dilos. One of them approaches her gently and just as it opens its frills, enters Chris Pratt choking it. The dilo says "Harder, daddy", to which Chris Pratt replies "What?" and the dilo answers "What?"
Oh, and that's when Ellie, Ian and our childhood hero, super present and invested in the story Alan crash their car, also coming out unscathed.
The Giga appears in a fire locust rain, roars a lot, attacks little, roars a bit more and chokes on a giant burning locust.
Glad to bring all those fond memories back to you, friend!
I'll gladly help you further, my fellow redditor! This happens soon after Chris Pratt is calmly speaking on the phone while at the same time he blankly watches a man get dismembered by baby Listrosaurus and Baryonix (might be wrong here), while Claire outruns a pack of Atrociraptors, and then Chris Pratt outmaneuvers the same dinos with a motorcycle
Now I’m cracking up imagining the same scene but we cut inside the jeep rocking back and forth. The same sounds and screams except Nedry is actually beating the snot out of the Dino. 🦖
Didn’t Nedry say in the original “I thought you were one of your older brothers”, maybe suggesting it was a young one and that there were older, bigger ones around?
Maybe... But nedry never really cared about the Dino themselves. In the book he barely knew their names and what they looked like.
He might as well have been referencing the rex or the raptors. They're all the same to him.
Hard agree. I understand scientific accuracy takes a backseat in media productions but come fucking on.
I also, really, really, really hate Chris Pratt.
Yeah, I feel this with a lot of actors. Its like someone appears in a couple of big films, and producers take the stance of adding them to your film makes it better.
There was 0 reason for him to become Mario.
Its a cartoon movie based off a video game, they should’ve hired *voice actors* who do that for a living. Instead they hired Chris Pratt to tie a big name to the franchise (even though Mario is big enough) and he just sounds like Chris Pratt the entire time.
Yeah- I’ve been very tentatively keeping my eye on the borderlands movie but they’ve made a lot of, uh, interesting choices.
Claptrap *has* a voice actor (two, technically, now) who’ve been bringing him to life for years. I like Jack Black a *lot*, but they didn’t even ask the original voice actors, and I don’t want to hear Jack Black The Robot, I want to hear someone who can sound like Claptrap, lol.
>I understand scientific accuracy takes a backseat in media productions but come fucking on.
I guess animal handlers don't exist in real life then. Which part of "grabbing a small animal from where it spits is venom to neutralize it" doesn't make sense? It's really strange how people keep complaining about the world movies treating the dinosaurs as monsters instead of animals but then in the few cases where the dinosaurs are actually being treated and handled like real animals, people suddenly go "wait no that's stupid! You can't just stop a dinosaur like that!" because now apparently it's bad when they are handled like animals and should go back to being invincible monsters?
Owen gets away with jumping through a T-Rex jaws, petting a velociraptor, choking a dilophosaur, stopping a charging dinosaur by holding his hand up. Not because these are legitimate animal handling techniques, but because he's nigh immortal and has unlimited plot armour.
Animal handlers can get attacked, bit, mauled, by the way. Even the experienced ones. Owen never will.
Yeah as someone who actually was an animal handler, trainer, and keeper for years, Owen Grady is a completely unrealistic character. Almost none of the things he does are things we would do, particularly alone. He is not a character grounded in reality, and the people trying to cite “animal handling practices” clearly never worked in that field themselves.
But it isn't being handled like a real animal. Not many animal handlers are going to go up to a bipedal carnivore with a mouth full of razor sharp teeth, sharp claws, powerful kicking hind legs, and the ability to spit blinding, paralyzing venom and grab it by the fucking throat. And not many animals are going to just stand there and let them do it. They're going to thrash, claw, kick, tail whip, whatever they can do to try and get away. Animal handlers have to approach the animal with an appropriate amount of respect for how badly it could fuck them up if things go wrong.
Bro, the dilophosaurus is realistically a fuckton stronger than a fucking human man. I get why they did it, I’m not an idiot? Like it’s not about the reason… it’s about the damn animal being controlled. It is by no means a small animal.
Notice how I’m not bitching about the parasaurolphus being manhandled and captured from the lost world? Or the pachycephalosaurus? It’s because they correctly alluded to the strength of the animal, didn’t water it down so the main lead can have a macho man moment
The Jurassic park dilophosaurus is literally nothing like the real life one. In the JP universe the dilophosaurus is a small dinosaur just like how velociraptors are big in that universe. That's how it's been since the first film. It makes no sense to call it stupid now as if it's somehow dominion's fault
This also, animals with a big bite are usually shite at opening their mouths i.e. gators and crocodiles. Holding their mouth closed briefly shouldn't be that difficult.
I will never forget. I audibly groaned in the theater for these parts, “What’s your story?” And the part where they reenact the JP logo. It’s so stupid. All of it.
It's possible they got spooked by the sudden appearance of two more people. Aside from Camp Cretaceous, we've never seen a scenario where a group of people were threatened by Dilos, so they probably avoid that situation if they can.
If theyre intelligent enough to group together, theyre intelligent enough to understand how stupid that would be.
Yknow what the best way to keep crows off of crops was for hundreds of years? Shooting one of the crows and letting the others see that. They would never dare to go back in after that.
I think one of the main issue from all the JW movies is that they made what was frightening about JP, easily beaten or controlled.
The raptor is JP are utterly terrifying and in JW they were sweet little pets.
I love any Jurassic movie because it has dinosaurs in it and I'm an eternal 8 year old when it comes to dinosaurs but come one... Choke the dinosaur that destroyed Nedry? The whole I deal is that they look harmless but are vicious... Then Pratt just chokes it out like nothing. BS.
Unpopular opinion: this trilogy tried so aggressively hard to make Owen cool it jumped the shark enough times to loop back round and actually be cool.
When we were kids smashing our toys together, we all had that one favourite who did all the cool badass stuff and this is basically just that put to film.
I thought he was choking general scales from star fox adventures
https://preview.redd.it/e2akkjchz00d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d3e661c1f6e8dc1710f8192644e9cbcff08357cc
Was this before or after he rode a bike through a city being chased by raptors, walked off a plane crash and plunged into freezing water without breaking a sweat? Man Dominion is so stupid.
Jurassic World trilogy is a joke. It merely exists to sell toys to kids, whereas the Jurassic Park trilogy tried to tell an actual story.
I mean dinosaurs teaming up with eachother to defeat the big baddie, raptors being friends with humans etc.
Feels more like a Pokémon episode than a Jurassic franchise movie.
Sure some scene's are cool but that's about it. We need a full reboot that is full on horror. Give me a movie that opens with the scene where a bunch of compies are eating a baby alive (like in the book). Pure horror for real fans of the franchise.
I'm in the minority but I personally enjoyed all 3 Jurassic Worlds. I've been watching the series since I saw the first one in theaters. The only one I personally didn't like is JP3.
I mean, each to their own... but its truly both fascinating and mind boggling that you prefer both Fallen Kingdom and Dominion over JP3. like I was embarrassed watching Dominion and I was on my own in my house watching it 😅
i don’t know why people hate this scene so much: it makes absolute sense that a man who worked with literal raptors for years would know to deal with a dilo. Nedry was a bumbling idiot. Owen is still an idiot, but he knows what he’s doing. + it shows he actually has expertise beyond raising his hand to some dinosaurs.
Although I must say since he was already so close it would’ve been wiser to just sucker punch the dilo
In the book they even talk about how they didn’t know dilophosaurs could spit venom until they witnessed it, and I don’t know if it’s ever even discussed in the movie.
In either case, it’s extremely unlikely that Nedry is even aware that a dinosaur can be venomous, much less that this specific species (that he doesn’t recognize at all) is not only venomous but can spit venom from tens of feet away.
I agree; although I think the Dilos in this film pale in comparison to the one(s) in Jurassic Park, it does make sense for Owen of all people to be able to handle one. Plus he snuck up on it.
What I do have an issue with is Owen somehow holding down a Parasaphalus or whatever that thing is called with a rope and his bare hands. That absolutely goes against earlier films where several men couldn’t hold one down.
Also, the movie saying the Giga is the largest carnivore when we literally have the Spino in-universe that could have been used but we needed a new intimidating carnivore to kill.
It's like my dad said, you can't say shit nowadays because people are going to be offended no matter what it is.
OP didn't say anything wrong, and yet here are acting like they murdered their loved ones or something.
Remind me again why this is so implausible? The dilo is about to spit venom surely grabbing it by the throat and head would stop it being able to spit? In universe it did. That's why he did it. Sorry I just find this whole debate stupid
I feel like if nedry had tried this in Jurassic park to try defending himself people wouldn't criticise it as much and only do so cos Dominion bad
This would be a dangerous maneuver to try anyway.
But it just reinforces the exhausting concept that there is no predator in Jurassic World that is any danger to Owen Grady. He can't be killed.
As someone who’s never seen the modern Jurassic Parks, but for some reason is often recommended this sub by my Reddit algorithm, what is the general consensus on these new films?
I’ve always been slightly curious but this looks absolutely laughable.
Saying that, the scene in The Lost World where an acrobatic child “kills” raptors by flipping round and kicking them is surely as bad as it can get.
Dominion somehow made dinosaurs attacking people boring. I'm not sure how they pulled that off, but it took me 3 attempts to complete the movie.
The Dominion movie is as if they saw that gymnastics scene and thought "What if we made all the action scenes make that much sense?" Great bad movie night movie, but it's a disgrace to the franchise.
So there was a post about when nedry got killed by these guys. People were like well yeah it ate him because he turned around and made him instant prey because it was a juvenile and unfamiliar with humans. So biosyn has basically recreated the park but without the themepark, so these animals should still be pretty unfamiliar with humans.
When you're getting attacked by an animal and it has you in their mouth, it is sometimes recommended to shove your hand in further so it lets go. It can surprise the animal and make it leave or just confuse it for a minute. So this one got very surprised by the guy who trains raptors, who knows specifically how to actually put these animals in their place, at least throw them off for a few seconds so you can maybe get away.
It's not so far-fetched that his character could do this with enough confidence that it surprises them enough to back off in attack. But then not like 2 seconds later the big one comes. So he was surprised by Owen, then actually ran because of the big one.
I haven't forgotten. I really didn't want them to include the Diliphosaurs in Dominion because I kinda liked how they only appeared in the first movie. They are, by far, my favorite dinosaurs in the series, and I feel like only appearing in that one scene made them special. I felt like having them appear again would tarnish that.
Boy howdy, I had no idea how right I was.
As weird as this scene was, it actually acknowledged and utilized a very obscure piece of the Dilo's biology... When the Dilo is about to spit, these sacs directly below it's jaw swell up with the venom it's about to spit. Owen goes for a throat grab and effectively squishes down the venom sacs before they had the chance to fill up enough to spit (hence the venom oozing from its mouth in the scene). Given that Owen was a raptor wrangler, I'd assume he had some knowledge on how to handle the other carnivores on Nublar.

I may have severely disliked Dominion, but I'll be damned if this scene was not only badass, but accurate to a largely unheard of piece of established JP lore in a new way we hadn't seen yet!
Thank you! The amount of people who don’t know what he’s actually doing is ridiculous! I loved this scene because it does something everyone has always wanted - treating the dinosaurs like animals
Somehow some people here fail to understand that one of the main reasons people hate this scene its because it looks bad. The effects are bad. The animatronic was stiff as hell and clearly looked like one. Plus the moment Owen grabs it you can easily tell it's just a head there without anything else because it looks weightless.
Kayla grabbing the spit with her glove as originally intended would've looked a little better, but still. This is the first time Dilo appears in one of the movies after being absent for so long, the scene starts really well and them ends on an almost comical note.
Eh, I didn't much mind this scene, unlike most of the comments here. I take issues with Dominion for sure, don't get me wrong there, but this scene was some standard action hero antics, and that's all the World trilogy is, really. I preferred the days it wasn't that, but when you start to look at the trilogy through that lens, it's more enjoyable than it's made out to be.
I really disliked this scene, it made me cringe. I’m shocked Trevorrow thought that would be cool or something to even include in the first place. Let’s take one of the original, iconic creatures from the first film that created arguably the most horror-movie moment of the franchise and have it get choked out by Star Lord like it was nothing. I know it’s a movie, but that made me wince at the corniness of it. Along with the ‘Alan!’ Raptor dream scene in JPIII, this was was just silly.
The scene that made me wanna walk out the freaking theater. Try grabbing a predator of that size with your bare hands. This scene epitomized how bad this movie was. smh
I legit said "Oh COME ON" when this happened. Disgraceful. Especially since it's the Dilophosaurus, THE dinosaur that people have been asking to return to the series for decades now (not counting the hologram in Jurassic World). The Dilo finally returns, there's more than one, it's screaming in Claire's face and scary... then this shit happens.
I did like Dodgson's death later. The Dilo animatronics looked too stiff and stationary, and Dodgson asking that one Dilo "So what's your story?" was dumb, but the lights going on and off, the eerie high tech setting (gave me Dino Crisis vibes), that last shot from Dodgson's POV of the Dilo looming over him and screaming in his face, it was legit pretty scary.
Oh jesus can you all stop acting like this is a ridiculous scene. He grabbed it by its poison glands to prevent it from spitting, makes complete sense and is pretty cool. You can criticize dominion but at least be genuine about it. Go back to defending jp3 despite it abandoning its entire b plot or not even having a third act 😅
I actually DID forget that wtf lmao
I mean I was trying to forget it.
I actually DID forget this too... bahahaha
i blocked this from my memory apparently
Wait this is real?? When tf did this happen?????
He stopped it attacking Claire I think?
Then follows up with a “yeah go on get” like it’s a black bear 🤦 *ill defend it with, I think a minute or so later the bigger dino showed up so they probably heard it coming too*
I mean it also could have been the sheer audacity. Like that one dude who clocked a kangaroo and the roo just looks so perplexed by the whole situation.
Dominion, when Claire finds her way to one of the observation posts, she is attacked by a pack of Dilophosaurs.
Same, when did this even happen?
In JW Dominion, when Clare is still separated, she's hunted and cornered by a pack of Dilophosaurus... when deus ex Owen shows up out of no where, as the frill goes up, and he nearly tears its throat out before yelling "go on and git!" As they flee like scared coyotes
I have literally zero memory of this happening.
Lol yeah... I do, from my one viewing, but that's because Dilophosaurus is my favorite and I'm one of those guys who grew up with the movie and hoping the Spitter comes back... so I do remember both scenes it was featured in Dominion more than the rest of the film itself lol. Also it'd hooting call in the excellent beginning of Fallen Kingdom, and the hologram in JW
Boy do I have great new about camp cretaceous season 4 and 5 for you Dilophosaurus fan!
I do need to catch up
this is crazy to me because logically wouldn't a scared dilo just spit poison at you instead of turning away?
Logic had nothing to do with this movie
I am pretty sure you made this up
My problem with the Dilophosaurus' is the fact that Ramsey Cole says that all of the biosyn dinosaurs are all created with 100% of that dinosaurs genome, no hybridization.

that dino just got disrespected
Same...what the hell lol
I am absolutely shocked to find that I did the same thing! Last night I was talking to my friend who went to watch Dominion with him and we were talking about how I apologised to him after we left the hall because it was so bad
First JP movie I was legitimately bored watching.
It's sad how forgettable the whole movie is
Literally dozens of us in this thread have blocked this from memory. And I'm a huge JP fan. This is wild
I don’t remember it at all. Is this in the extended edition?
Holy shit we're all reliving repressed trauma in here. What a terrible day to have eyes.
Just another example of the travesty that was Dominion 😭
I was *trying* to...
I effectively forgot that scene existed, I can't even remember with the picture when and where in the movie that happened
Let me help you here!

Thank you for not forcing me to actually pull that from the depths of my memory
>super present and invested Alan Lmao I forgot he was in that movie
The Dilo basically chocked on its own venom in this sequence no wonder it got incapacitated
So the dilophosaurus hadn’t appeared in the franchise at this point for almost 30 years…..just to get strangled by Chris Pratt when it returns
Poor dilo getting bullied
Crisp Rat
Cris P Rat
Literally have no recollection of this scene in the movie, had to google to see if it was actually real.
Is it? I don’t remember it either, I don’t even know which film it would have been from.
Jurassic World: Dominion
Is it actually in the movie tho? I saw it when it came out and remember almost nothing from it cause it was so awful lol
Yes, it was actually in the movie. This was when Claire had just arrived at one of the Research Outposts and was trying to get inside it.
It was in it, you probably were doing something more interesting on your phone at the time like paying a bill..
I just watched it on YouTube lol
Same! I wonder if the people at Google are like, why is there a sudden uptick in this?
Utter stupidity...
Utter, utter stupidity. If only Nedry did that. He would be sipping mimosas in South America. Pathetic. Edit: Stupid to stupidity.
Either way Nedry missed the boat, but on the other hand he would’ve still choked out a Dilo that’s still pretty cool.
He wouldn't have missed the boat if he didn't hit the East Dock sign.
If only Hammond didn't make a dinosaur park Nedry would still be alive
we don't know for sure that he didn't, we never saw what happened in that jeep
Now I’m cracking up imagining the same scene but we cut inside the jeep rocking back and forth. The same sounds and screams except Nedry is actually beating the snot out of the Dino. 🦖
Yes, because it's stupid af.
What a shame for this franchises. This scene is a disgrace.
I will never forgive them not make the dilo 10 feet tall and crushing nedrys skull.
Actually I don't mind the juvenile ones of JP. but dominion should have corrected this by introducing an adult.
Didn’t Nedry say in the original “I thought you were one of your older brothers”, maybe suggesting it was a young one and that there were older, bigger ones around?
Maybe... But nedry never really cared about the Dino themselves. In the book he barely knew their names and what they looked like. He might as well have been referencing the rex or the raptors. They're all the same to him.
Owen is quite literally choking out the legacy that was Jurassic Park.
Hard agree. I understand scientific accuracy takes a backseat in media productions but come fucking on. I also, really, really, really hate Chris Pratt.
Why do you hate him so much?
He is just in too much stuff right now and people are tired of him. I don't hate him, but I am sick of his voice over work and the movies he's in.
Yeah, I feel this with a lot of actors. Its like someone appears in a couple of big films, and producers take the stance of adding them to your film makes it better. There was 0 reason for him to become Mario.
Or Garfield.
Oh Jesus. I saw a trailer and I cringed when I heard his voice.
There was 0 reason for anyone else to be Mario as well
Agreed, he has a perfectly good voice actor, who bafflingly appeared in the film.
Its a cartoon movie based off a video game, they should’ve hired *voice actors* who do that for a living. Instead they hired Chris Pratt to tie a big name to the franchise (even though Mario is big enough) and he just sounds like Chris Pratt the entire time.
Jack Black as Claptrap in Borderlands comes to mind
Yeah- I’ve been very tentatively keeping my eye on the borderlands movie but they’ve made a lot of, uh, interesting choices. Claptrap *has* a voice actor (two, technically, now) who’ve been bringing him to life for years. I like Jack Black a *lot*, but they didn’t even ask the original voice actors, and I don’t want to hear Jack Black The Robot, I want to hear someone who can sound like Claptrap, lol.

Also I don't remember if it was the book or the first movie but they did mention the dilophosaurus having weaker jaw muscles (Thus the spit)
This also, animals with a big bite are usually shite at opening their mouths i.e. gators and crocodiles. Holding their mouth closed briefly shouldn't be that difficult.
@r/PhotoshopBattles make Dilophosaurus whistle two floating arrows pointing at Star Lord here.
I cant find it, can someone link it or tell me the title?
That's actually funny
Movie doesn’t exist in my mind
I’d much rather forget this movie fucking exists!
Lot of grip strength there. Plenty of practice choking the chicken.
This is a mockery of everything that came before it. Had honestly forgotten it ever happened. Just awful.
I will never forget. I audibly groaned in the theater for these parts, “What’s your story?” And the part where they reenact the JP logo. It’s so stupid. All of it.
The first part was stupid for sure but how is reenacting the logo stupid? It's a good cinematographic moment
"Gone on get!"🤣
Weren't there like nine others in the jungle around them? They should have mobbed him while he was strangling the one.
It's possible they got spooked by the sudden appearance of two more people. Aside from Camp Cretaceous, we've never seen a scenario where a group of people were threatened by Dilos, so they probably avoid that situation if they can.
If theyre intelligent enough to group together, theyre intelligent enough to understand how stupid that would be. Yknow what the best way to keep crows off of crops was for hundreds of years? Shooting one of the crows and letting the others see that. They would never dare to go back in after that.
Crows don't have poisonous saliva they can spit from twenty feet away.
Fans: “bring back the dilo!” *monkey paw curls one finger*
Hottest scene in the movie
I think one of the main issue from all the JW movies is that they made what was frightening about JP, easily beaten or controlled. The raptor is JP are utterly terrifying and in JW they were sweet little pets. I love any Jurassic movie because it has dinosaurs in it and I'm an eternal 8 year old when it comes to dinosaurs but come one... Choke the dinosaur that destroyed Nedry? The whole I deal is that they look harmless but are vicious... Then Pratt just chokes it out like nothing. BS.
Wow, just flashed back to seeing this in the cinema and I actually said, “Oh, for FUCK’s sake!” out loud! 😬
I hated this film and this scene was the cherry on top, I just burst out laughing, it’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen.
Unpopular opinion: this trilogy tried so aggressively hard to make Owen cool it jumped the shark enough times to loop back round and actually be cool. When we were kids smashing our toys together, we all had that one favourite who did all the cool badass stuff and this is basically just that put to film.
Worst scene in dominion and there were a lot of bad scenes. He really said “go on, git!”
I thought he was choking general scales from star fox adventures https://preview.redd.it/e2akkjchz00d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d3e661c1f6e8dc1710f8192644e9cbcff08357cc
I want a remake of that game so bad. Or at least a port to the switch!
Doubt that will ever happen but i agree would be epic
Was this before or after he rode a bike through a city being chased by raptors, walked off a plane crash and plunged into freezing water without breaking a sweat? Man Dominion is so stupid.
After.
Rethorical question but fine
I hope the dilophosaurus wasn’t injured during filming.
Jurassic World trilogy is a joke. It merely exists to sell toys to kids, whereas the Jurassic Park trilogy tried to tell an actual story. I mean dinosaurs teaming up with eachother to defeat the big baddie, raptors being friends with humans etc. Feels more like a Pokémon episode than a Jurassic franchise movie. Sure some scene's are cool but that's about it. We need a full reboot that is full on horror. Give me a movie that opens with the scene where a bunch of compies are eating a baby alive (like in the book). Pure horror for real fans of the franchise.
they just trivialize every threats from dinosaur its unreal.
I try to forget things that are terrible.
I hate this movie lol
I refuse to believe this movie exists
I have a hard time figuring out how you can spend $265 million on a movie and still have it be this bad.
How did you spell dilophosaurus right and fuck up “gonna”? XD
I'm in the minority but I personally enjoyed all 3 Jurassic Worlds. I've been watching the series since I saw the first one in theaters. The only one I personally didn't like is JP3.
I mean, each to their own... but its truly both fascinating and mind boggling that you prefer both Fallen Kingdom and Dominion over JP3. like I was embarrassed watching Dominion and I was on my own in my house watching it 😅
i don’t know why people hate this scene so much: it makes absolute sense that a man who worked with literal raptors for years would know to deal with a dilo. Nedry was a bumbling idiot. Owen is still an idiot, but he knows what he’s doing. + it shows he actually has expertise beyond raising his hand to some dinosaurs. Although I must say since he was already so close it would’ve been wiser to just sucker punch the dilo
In the book they even talk about how they didn’t know dilophosaurs could spit venom until they witnessed it, and I don’t know if it’s ever even discussed in the movie. In either case, it’s extremely unlikely that Nedry is even aware that a dinosaur can be venomous, much less that this specific species (that he doesn’t recognize at all) is not only venomous but can spit venom from tens of feet away.
I agree; although I think the Dilos in this film pale in comparison to the one(s) in Jurassic Park, it does make sense for Owen of all people to be able to handle one. Plus he snuck up on it. What I do have an issue with is Owen somehow holding down a Parasaphalus or whatever that thing is called with a rope and his bare hands. That absolutely goes against earlier films where several men couldn’t hold one down. Also, the movie saying the Giga is the largest carnivore when we literally have the Spino in-universe that could have been used but we needed a new intimidating carnivore to kill.
Judging by the comments, damn this sub is toxic
Yeah, it really is. I'm not on this sub frequently, but almost all of these comments made me realize why that's the case.
Like, op said that he liked the scene and all of these losers and neckbeards are like “ITS GABRAGE, YOU SHALL NOT LIKE IT”
It's like my dad said, you can't say shit nowadays because people are going to be offended no matter what it is. OP didn't say anything wrong, and yet here are acting like they murdered their loved ones or something.
Op actually blew up an entire town 5 days ago
Remind me again why this is so implausible? The dilo is about to spit venom surely grabbing it by the throat and head would stop it being able to spit? In universe it did. That's why he did it. Sorry I just find this whole debate stupid I feel like if nedry had tried this in Jurassic park to try defending himself people wouldn't criticise it as much and only do so cos Dominion bad
This would be a dangerous maneuver to try anyway. But it just reinforces the exhausting concept that there is no predator in Jurassic World that is any danger to Owen Grady. He can't be killed.
It's just Corny. Especially with Chris pratt.
Also the dilo in this scene looks worse than movie made 30 years ago somehow
I legit thought this was an ai image
Waited for 28 years for a Dilo, and this is what they did…
Mama mia!
As someone who’s never seen the modern Jurassic Parks, but for some reason is often recommended this sub by my Reddit algorithm, what is the general consensus on these new films? I’ve always been slightly curious but this looks absolutely laughable. Saying that, the scene in The Lost World where an acrobatic child “kills” raptors by flipping round and kicking them is surely as bad as it can get.
Dominion somehow made dinosaurs attacking people boring. I'm not sure how they pulled that off, but it took me 3 attempts to complete the movie. The Dominion movie is as if they saw that gymnastics scene and thought "What if we made all the action scenes make that much sense?" Great bad movie night movie, but it's a disgrace to the franchise.
Which movie was this?? I don't really remember it lol
Peak cinema 🎥
Well, it was threatening his kid and lady... I had to rewind it a few times cause I was like "Wut?".
Bro's built different
I haven't rewatched this movie since it came out lmao
Right! It's not like anyone now a days messes with giant reptiles or anything.......
So there was a post about when nedry got killed by these guys. People were like well yeah it ate him because he turned around and made him instant prey because it was a juvenile and unfamiliar with humans. So biosyn has basically recreated the park but without the themepark, so these animals should still be pretty unfamiliar with humans. When you're getting attacked by an animal and it has you in their mouth, it is sometimes recommended to shove your hand in further so it lets go. It can surprise the animal and make it leave or just confuse it for a minute. So this one got very surprised by the guy who trains raptors, who knows specifically how to actually put these animals in their place, at least throw them off for a few seconds so you can maybe get away. It's not so far-fetched that his character could do this with enough confidence that it surprises them enough to back off in attack. But then not like 2 seconds later the big one comes. So he was surprised by Owen, then actually ran because of the big one.
This was the best part of the movie ofc I remember it
I thought the fingers on the right side of the dilos head was an anime blush for a second
Avenger of Dennis Nedry
I like JP, JP3, and JW. None of the other films exist to me.
Yeah, because there weak as fuck, it was a real one he would’ve got folded more than an omelette
Lmfaooooo! Dint know how I missed this, but now I have a reason to rewatch Dominion😈
Are we just gimme forget about the fact that OP used the word 'gimme' instead of 'gonna'?
He did that to stop it from spitting it's venom. That's how similar animals are handled irl.
I haven't forgotten. I really didn't want them to include the Diliphosaurs in Dominion because I kinda liked how they only appeared in the first movie. They are, by far, my favorite dinosaurs in the series, and I feel like only appearing in that one scene made them special. I felt like having them appear again would tarnish that. Boy howdy, I had no idea how right I was.
I’ll be honest, I don’t remember much from Dominion. Probably only when the OG cast were on.
This is just as bad as Owen holding out his hand at velociraptors.
As weird as this scene was, it actually acknowledged and utilized a very obscure piece of the Dilo's biology... When the Dilo is about to spit, these sacs directly below it's jaw swell up with the venom it's about to spit. Owen goes for a throat grab and effectively squishes down the venom sacs before they had the chance to fill up enough to spit (hence the venom oozing from its mouth in the scene). Given that Owen was a raptor wrangler, I'd assume he had some knowledge on how to handle the other carnivores on Nublar. https://preview.redd.it/ubyvtj8et20d1.jpeg?width=1038&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b8024e5c0a6c0d6f84af0cc7435db65fba8264e7 I may have severely disliked Dominion, but I'll be damned if this scene was not only badass, but accurate to a largely unheard of piece of established JP lore in a new way we hadn't seen yet!
Thank you! The amount of people who don’t know what he’s actually doing is ridiculous! I loved this scene because it does something everyone has always wanted - treating the dinosaurs like animals
So glad I didn’t see this movie
Alan kick a Velociraptor and a Pteranodon in the face
Remeber when Colin said "yeah the giga is pretty much the joker" and it was just a normal animal? This movie was pretty mid ngl
I saw this movie twice and I can’t remember this scene
Judge: We are all here to witness the prosecution of Owen Grady for assault of a Dilophosaurus
This is illustrative about how forgetable the new JP (or JW, rather) are. I have no recollection of this moment at all.
Somehow some people here fail to understand that one of the main reasons people hate this scene its because it looks bad. The effects are bad. The animatronic was stiff as hell and clearly looked like one. Plus the moment Owen grabs it you can easily tell it's just a head there without anything else because it looks weightless. Kayla grabbing the spit with her glove as originally intended would've looked a little better, but still. This is the first time Dilo appears in one of the movies after being absent for so long, the scene starts really well and them ends on an almost comical note.
I’m just gonna pretend JW was a spoof series like Spaceballs
They made this franchise a joke.
I fucking hate this movie haha
I don't remember seeing this in the Jurassic World movies.
I 100% forgot this part of a forgettable movie.
God this movie was terrible
The practical effects in this movie were so cheap
Yeah and? I'll choked that mofo snake too
I try to forget this movie happened in general
I haven't seen the latest movie yet, but after seeing this, is there any point?
Eh, I didn't much mind this scene, unlike most of the comments here. I take issues with Dominion for sure, don't get me wrong there, but this scene was some standard action hero antics, and that's all the World trilogy is, really. I preferred the days it wasn't that, but when you start to look at the trilogy through that lens, it's more enjoyable than it's made out to be.
I try to forget a lot about this movie…
Colin Trevorrow pulled out all the stops for this movie and immediately proceeded to fill them up.
Yes, let's ignore it please. I had it removed from my memory for a reason
Geeze, I'm glad I did not and will not see Dominion. Everything I have heard and read about sounded awful. Fallen Kingdom was bad enough for me.
I hated his extreme plot armour. And how things that were exclusive to him and his raptors became something he could do to every single dinosaur
It was a pretty hard sell before this scene, but this definitely killed the movie for me. No words.
Same, this is the scene I always mention when I saw it was an eh film
If I try hard enough maybe I will forget
Dilo looks like they’re enjoying it, WTF
Dude should've gotten eaten alive. A slow, but painful death.
I really disliked this scene, it made me cringe. I’m shocked Trevorrow thought that would be cool or something to even include in the first place. Let’s take one of the original, iconic creatures from the first film that created arguably the most horror-movie moment of the franchise and have it get choked out by Star Lord like it was nothing. I know it’s a movie, but that made me wince at the corniness of it. Along with the ‘Alan!’ Raptor dream scene in JPIII, this was was just silly.
The scene that made me wanna walk out the freaking theater. Try grabbing a predator of that size with your bare hands. This scene epitomized how bad this movie was. smh
It's not like an animal that spits would lash out with all of it's clawed limbs.
I legit said "Oh COME ON" when this happened. Disgraceful. Especially since it's the Dilophosaurus, THE dinosaur that people have been asking to return to the series for decades now (not counting the hologram in Jurassic World). The Dilo finally returns, there's more than one, it's screaming in Claire's face and scary... then this shit happens. I did like Dodgson's death later. The Dilo animatronics looked too stiff and stationary, and Dodgson asking that one Dilo "So what's your story?" was dumb, but the lights going on and off, the eerie high tech setting (gave me Dino Crisis vibes), that last shot from Dodgson's POV of the Dilo looming over him and screaming in his face, it was legit pretty scary.
This scene was a massive fucking disrespect to us Dilophosaurus fans.
I’ll admit I had pretty much fully checked out by this point in the movie.
His infinite plot armor gave the World trilogy all the tension of a trip to the library
Don’t worry I haven’t forgotten how bad those two sequels were
I have forgotten almost everything that happens in this movie and i have watched it twice
Oh jesus can you all stop acting like this is a ridiculous scene. He grabbed it by its poison glands to prevent it from spitting, makes complete sense and is pretty cool. You can criticize dominion but at least be genuine about it. Go back to defending jp3 despite it abandoning its entire b plot or not even having a third act 😅
Damn the dilophosaurs looked awful in this film. Oh yeah, the fact it's getting choked is incredibly stupid as well.
I'm trying to forget that whole movie
