The new film isn't out for another couple of months, but already I'm liking the brief bits of footage so much better than the last couple of movies. If nothing else it's at least clearly a much...

It's interesting that as widely disliked as JP3 is, it's rated higher than expected sometimes on some rankings. I don't think it's particularly good but it has it's share of good things going for it....

I'd give TLW a higher score but other than that, fully agreed. Every time I've tried watching JW and giving it another go it just comes off as such a poor man's version of the first film and the time...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

For all the flack JP3 often gets, the aviary sequence in it is outstanding and easily on par with anything from the first two movies. A diamond in the rough in what's not a very good movie although...

I did as well when I was younger, mainly because Dr. Grant was back. I remember missing him from TLW. He's still missed from the second film but nowadays I think as a whole the second film is...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

No booing from me. Other than the end fight and Mosasaurus feeding scenes I didn't enjoy the last film at all. Fallen Kingdom looks promising though and hopefully it'll deliver.

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

Definitely agree about JW having too much CGI. Gave it a very artificial quality and lacked the practical magic the first three movies had, and IMO it looked terrible most of the time. More like...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

Another thing about JW I didn't like was how little it used the classic Jurassic music themes and what little times they were used it was during moments where it didn't fit at all. In the original...

Fairly close to how I'd rate them. The original is an easy 10/10 for sure, TLW is almost a 9/10 but the stupid gymnastics bit drops it a point for me. JP3 is a 6/10, has some good moments that redeem...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

I'm surprised that JW is rated so highly by some. Much as I didn't care for it, so far at least the upcoming Fallen Kingdom is looking considerably better and hopefully it delivers. It's a movie...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

One thing that really rubbed me the wrong way about JW is that for a film trying so hard to evoke nostalgia for the original, how are you going to use the classic Jurassic theme music so little and...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

I loved JP3 when I was 14/15 years of age, but now, not so much. Though I do have some nostalgia for it so I always have a hard time totally hating it.

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

I've said it before but aside from the end fight and the Mosasaurus scenes, I thought Jurassic World was dreadfully boring and dull. JP3 isn't exactly good but at least it isn't boring and is...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

I actually enjoyed the San Diego sequence in The Lost World. It was something different. That sequence alone is far superior to the entirity of the third and fourth films, IMO. Although the film was...

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

Fallen Kingdom so far looks really good. I wouldn't be surprised if it at least rates as my third favorite and I'm betting it will be. It already looks far superior to the third and fourth movies....

Re: Rank The Jurassic Park Films

If I were to rate them each on a 0-10 scale:


1 - 10/10
2 - 8/10
3 - 6/10
4 - 4/10


The Lost World is nearly a 9/10, but the infamous gymnastics scene (so stupid) combined with the first...
