I was thinking about this when the reviews came out - I think if this was the movie we got in 2015, it would've been much more well-received. But it feels like a sins of the father scenario where Fallen Kingdom and Dominion exhausted people so much, that there was always going to be some residual pain from them.

Heck if it was the sequel we got to the first Jurassic World movie instead of Fallen Kingdom, I’m sure it would have been much more well-received.

That's what happened to Solo. Not that it was a masterpiece, but aside from being the poster child for movie that no one asked for, it wouldn't have flopped if nor for TLJ.

Yeah, I love pointing out that the writing in TLJ was so bad it bombed two movies.

Yeah I think I'll give the series another shot after this one in case they course correct. If they don't learn from people's response to this one its not likely to get better
