William Monahan and John Sayles's screenplay opens with the dinosaurs, having escaped their island containment, arriving to wreak havoc in the good ol' US of A (having previously rampaged their way across central America). A new character named Nick Harris travels to The Lost World's Isla Nublar on a stealth mission for Richard Attenborough's John Hammond but, just when you think the same old storyline is about to pan out all over again, our hero is captured by security rangers working for the company that now owns the island, the Grendel Corporation, and transported to a secret facility in the Alps.
Here's where it all goes cerebellum-twistingly nutty. It turns out that the firm has been illegally splicing dinosaur DNA with that of humans (and dogs) in order to create the ultimate intelligent fighting machines, capable of taking down the dinosaur menace. Yes, you read it right: faced with the imminent velociraptor- and T rex-inspired demise of human civilisation, Hollywood's answer is to up the ante by throwing cleverer dinosaurs into the mix to kill them.
I've only seen the first film, but are you saying that in the sequels they saw the T-Rex as a threat to the human race? Or was that just an idea that was part of IV only?
I predict the dinosaurs get so smart that they incorporate and become the largest commercial conglomerate on the planet...and then they fight Aliens from the Aliens franchise (but not those Aliens from Prometheus because they're obviously not connected...or sumthin).
Then they'll make a movie called "Aliens Vs Predators Vs Velociraptors"....and it'll suck.
