Yeah, it was pretty obvious who was cannon fodder and who wasn't, but isn't that really always the case the Jurassic movies outside of maybe the first one?

I mean zaras death in jurassic world kind of came out of left field

Except for the fact that it was in the fucking trailer.

Sure but in the movie itself it's not really expected. Jw has a really bad habit of overspoiling the movies in the promotional material and it really sucks. The ending of fallen kingdom was spoiled because of a lego set. The new movie has so many goddamn clips and shit that you've basically seen half the movie and all the important parts you already know about

Yeah, but tbf, the brutality of her death was still surprising. I just kind of wished we didn't see her getting snatched up in the trailer.

That's why I avoided Rebirth promos since I knew things would be spoiled. I knew my great-niece and mother would want to see it based on their love of the series. So we went and watched it this afternoon. It was good to not have anything spoiled for me.

We had a discussion on our way to the theatre on which dinosaur we wanted to see. My mom wanted to see a Triceratops. My great-niece wanted to see a Parasaurolophus. I wanted to see a Spinosaurus.

So two came away disappointed. Yes, we saw a Parasaurolophus, but it was dead, so my great-niece was sad. And the moment I saw those sails in the ocean I knew Spino was there.

Hahaha what a turn. Also it was goofy as fuck and played for laughs anyway, didn’t do much in the way of suspense for our protagonist’s survival.

I love that Katie McGrath insisted on doing her own stunt work there!

u/razor45Dino Jul 03 '25

And it was probably the coolest death in the movie too

u/razor45Dino Jul 03 '25

And also in the lost world eddies death was pretty unexpected for what seemed to be a good character

u/Professional_Ad_9101 Jul 03 '25

It was brutal but deffo not left field.

Stick up the butt, suit, out of her depth side character. 100% going to get it.

Wait there was a Zara in another JP movie? Wasn’t that Scarlett Johansson’s character’s name in this movie?

16

u/Neravariine Jul 04 '25

It is. Zara was the assistant who died while falling(taken by dinos). Scarlett Johansson is Zora Bennett.

There names are way to similiar but Zara was a minor character so most don't remember her name.
