Today is the 25th anniversary of The Lost World.

The name says it all.



Your thoughts about this movie.

I've noticed how it's been getting far more love recently and it's about time.

I made a thread about this a few weeks back.

But yeah, TLW has always been the best sequel in the franchise.  And given the taste JP3, JW, JWFK  and JWD left in people's mouths...TLW now looks like the Godfather and Citizen Kane mixed with the original Star Wars.

Watching Lost World right now as part of my Jurassic week.

Thats cool that you've seen JWD before anyone else and can claim this.

As of right now, Dominion has a 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. I know some use that site as the end all be all.

Yeah it only has a total of 8 reviews by critics so far. No wonder the score is so high.

Have you actually read the reviews on IMDB?

Quite a number of them have more or less said that the movie is way too much Fast and the Furious. As in too much mindless, unrealistic, bombastic action but with very little plot or story.

And of course people have already noted the dissapointing ending.

Ao yeah, this isn't me being hypothetical.

Not to mention...Remember The Last Jedi? Early critics were saying it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. And we all know how that turned out.

Why do you always have to go back to hating on the Jurassic World films? Why can't you still appreciate The Lost World without having to unnecessarily bash the more recent films? It's not hard.

I dont read reviews because I dont let others form an opinion for me.

To be fair, I wouldn't trust RT as a realible source either. Not after it gave Cuties an 86% critic rating, anyway.

Wait...You implied that I was just making stuff up when I said JWD left a bad taste in people's mouths.

You used Rotten Tomatoes 88% rating as proof that I was just making stuff up.

All I did was point out that RT score was due to the fact that onoy 8 critics had reviewed it and thus you should look more into IMDB and Twitter wich have a much more reviews thus giving you a much more clear picture on how audiences feel (wich is not that good).

And now you respond by saying you don't read reviews? Like what?

You missed the point and mixed things up that were not being argued. The point is not reviews changing your mind or not. The point was you thought I was making stuff uo by saying JWD was poorly recieved and there is poenty of proof on IMDB that it has indeed been poorly recieved.

So yeah, there is truth in me saying the movie has not been so well recieved. That was my point. Not to get you to change your mind on how you feel about the movie. Big difference.

You can't claim something and then when someone tries to show you the proof then just refuse to see the proof.
