Re: Last Commentary on JP



Well, the JP movies do propose a possible
cause for non-avian dinosaur extinction:
noise.

Every damned animal in all of those movies makes
a frightful racket at all times.  All they need to do
is move, and they start squawking or squalling.
Even their >walking< sounds like pile-drivers,
though anyone observing such organisms as
elephants knows how quiet a large animal can be
in walking.

Pursuant to the JP movies, my current theory
regarding the aforementioned extinction is that the
dinosaurs made so much noise that 1) the herbivores
couldn't evade the predators, and 2) the predators
starved to death after warning all remaining prey
of their approach far in advance by snorking and
trumpeting like Ted Kennedy on the Senate floor.

Jurassic errors must die!!!

The overplayed TFX sound effects in the JP movies must be one of the most overdone thing about them. Besides all the depressing intelligence of the humans in the movie, the nonsensical dinosaurs, the physics defiance and the lack of respect for audience intelligence. The Spinosaurus just keeps going on and on after the puny 60-kilo humans (ok, shave 30 for the lady), making one hell of the racket as it goes, despite having killed a 6-ton Tyrannosaur (in a rather illogical fight at that) which would have provided it with an more-then-ample food supply.

Homo sapiens was also reproduced with little accuracy in the film. In which the humans themselves are too stupid to know any better, noticing a gigantic carnivorous dinosaur standing right out in the open only after hearing the annoying ring tone from the cellular phone within it's bowels, shouting out with a megaphone in an island full of carnivorous who-knows-whats, and being unable to hit, let alone disable a 14 meter plus plus animal despite all the earlier scenes of them being crack shots with guns capable of blowing up a light aircraft. Not to mention "paleontologists" who are depressingly inadept at their jobs. Are we allowed to speculate on the overall intelligence of the humans on the flim? I think so, but we'll be afraid of the results...should such a trend be repeated in real life, I'm afraid we may very well be headed for extinction.

Okay, I better turn down my speakers to protect them from the overdone TFX effects at this point.
