anyway looking forward to the new jurassic park x dominion collab, think it will really open some peoples eyes about the horrific abuses perpetrated by the dinosaur agriculture industry
John Hammond is a war criminal and I don't care how cute his grand kids are.
Is there a level above war criminal?
Like, what do you call someone who created a singular threat to the entire ecosystem for laughs?

Yes, I know the twist they introduced to the series with the new ones being that it was a stepping stone to human cloning, but that fucking sucks so I choose to ignore it
Is there a level above war criminal?
Capitalist, which Hammond is. I was joking but I could see the military contacting him about weaponizing his dinosaur technology, battlefield applications.
Having played Turok: Dinosaur Hunter, I understand something the military doesn't
Dinosaurs are helpless in the face of a shotgun, some know-how and magic portals
The pentagon dumps a billion into Hammond's dinos only for them to get wrecked out in Afghanistan by farmers with shotguns. Poor dinos :(
a plot point in the most recent one is
spoiler
they make a genetically modified super-raptor for explicitly military purposes, that responds to laser pointers and sound cues. so if you point the laser sights on your gun at someone and pull a special trigger, the raptor will run out and attack them
responding to the age old conundrum of how do you kill someone that you are pointing a gun at
Yeah in all actuality dino's would be a liability on the battlefield, but I'm sure the military would be interested in the gene sequencing tech or whatever that goes into it, like you said for cloning or gene editing ala Metal Gear Solid.
i think the best military use for them would be to just dump a bunch of raptors into the forests/jungles/mountains of whatever country youre trying to invade/destabilise and let them wreak havoc behind the lines. pretty sure there would be no reason to worry about your actions having any sort of unintended consequences or anything
this film is dedicated to the brave velociraptor fighters of afghanistan
responding to the age old conundrum of how do you kill someone that you are pointing a gun at
Finally someone figured that shit out
Or just like, a shotgun probably. They're just animals, not rock monsters
The portal is to travel to the Lost Land so you can hunt down the Chronomancer responsible for unleashing the dinosaurs and cyborgs and cyborg-dinosaurs
I forget which Turok game it is, but the final boss is a Confederate general riding a cyborg T-Rex
They don't make much sense, but they are fun in a clunky kind of way
In the book, he's an unabashed piece of shit and gets what's coming to him
horrific abuses perpetrated by the dinosaur agriculture industry
Wasn't this basically the last movie?
