I guess I will only see it when it comes on TV!

Me too. Especially since Comcast has been nice enough to make sure I have already paid to see it. I'll just wait and see it on 52 inches and 5.1 at home.

No but they breed Raptors again...

That is going to go down in movie history along with, "Girl! Do NOT open that door!"

Did they not learn anything about Raptors?

Chris Pratt is supposed to be a Conservative Christian. That's what I read on the internet anyway.

And he's funny and not bad on the eyes either. So there's that.

I saw it on the weekend. It was really good: not as much as Jurassic Park, which also had the added benefit of originality as well as Spielberg's storytelling prowess, but much better than either of the previous sequels.

While I was at a 3D showing, I didn't necessarily feel that I'd have lost out if I went to a regular showing instead.
