I forget the weird quirks of the moderation system here. I can see that this topic has been created, but there's currently nothing here.

Return of the King!
You're right, I forgot about that! They did say he would be back, didn't they?

Yep, that is the #1 way that they could have and should have improved the film. Dare I say, if Lowery had been around to save the day, that alone could have moved them up 50 percentage points on the Tomatometer.

I also remember Collin Trevorrow claiming it would be a "Science Thriller" in the vein of the original JP, so the pre-movie announcements were all fairly wrong.

Obviously the real fix to the movie would've been if Simon Masrani survived the helicopter and showed up to duke it out with Lowery in an epic battle.

I was not very thrilled at all. I was realizing the third movie had very few named character casualties, which I think was another problem.

They'd be releasing Jurassic World 4 this June if they had.

They don't realize the best of the Jurassic series is when it's treated like a monster movie. Building up tension rather than everything being an action scene. For all it's faults at least Fallen Kingdom had some very tense and well-constructed Indoraptor moments.
Dr. Wu absolutely should've met his end by now. Especially given the whole series theme of the hubris of man flying too close to the sun and getting burnt. He's been around for far too many movies, especially considering he doesn't even survive in the first Jurassic Park book.

Oh I am so down for that, despite how ridiculous that would've been. We all know who would've won, too. Okay honestly, it really couldn't be any worse than the actual movie. Of course.
