You know what I'd love to see in the next movie: a herbivore antagonist! They can be dangerous too, you know?!

You know what I'd love to see in the next movie: a herbivore antagonist! They can be dangerous too, you know?!

Say what you will about Jurassic World: Dominion, but it has some highlights that, at least in my eyes, prevent me from hating it as many others do (especially after Rebirth).

One of those highlights is the Therizinosaurus. Its first introduction is one of the best I've seen in the JW movies: intimidating, territorial, and the fact that it's still a herbivore does emphasize that just because a creature's a plant eater doesn't mean it's friendly.

Honestly, I wish this is something the films did more of: show the herbivores as dangerous. The only other one that does this is The Lost World, with the Stegosaurus herd attacking Sarah and the captured herbivores destroying the poacher camp.

What do you guys think? Should the herbivores become just as dangerous as the carnivores in the films?

25 years. 25 years since the infamous battle between the two. Very controversial in the past, but nowadays...what do you think about this fight?

(Shoulda picked a better quality pic, but whatever)

Honestly...the controversy surrounding this fight was stupid, and I thought that even back when I first saw this movie. I was like 2 when I first saw it on TV, and it was awesome seeing the Spinosaurus and T. Rex duke it out.

As I got older, I learned that it's more likely the T. Rex would win...But I didn't really make a big deal about the result, even if I knew it was inaccurate, especially more so in recent years with Spinosaurus having a constant character model update with each new discovery. I just thought the fight was awesome back then, and I still love it to this very day.

But what about you guys?

What's a FNAF take that has you acting like this?

For me, it's this particular post from a year ago regarding the Mimic and how it was introduced, as it was uploaded before Secrets of the Mimic came out. While the OP does have valid points, the way they went about it just rubs me the wrong way. And the fact that they said at the end,

>My boyfriend agrees with me and imagine many others do as well, real FNaF fans anyway.

Nah, it just makes me go, "Ugh." To give them credit, they DID admit it wasn't mature of them to say in a response, but still.

But what about you guys? What FNAF takes have you seen that left you feeling like Homelander here?

If you have to keep one of these two writers, which one would it be?

Honestly...as much as I respect David Koepp for his role in the first two movies...I'd say Colin Trevorrow. Say what you will about his writing, but at least he actually has some ideas on where to carry the franchise forward without risking stagnation.

Hot Take: I'm not sure the franchise can sustain the first film's method of creating tension (mainly isolated settings) forever.

I was reading a post about how Edward's departure from the new sequel was seen as not a good thing, as the main problem with Rebirth was the script, rather than the directing. Honestly, I agree. But that post was an interesting comment that made me think:

>That being said, Koepp, in my opinion, is burned out. It's not like he didn't say that he had no idea where to take it from Dominion, which was divisive on It's own to put it lightly. Koepp's script was weak.. very weak.. but Edwards direction was also an uninspired train wreck of mediocrity.

>So, that leaves one important thing that most fans do not want to acknowledge.

>Spielberg is destroying the franchise that he built. Like Ridley Scott with the Alien prequels and George Lucas.. being George Lucas, Spielberg out stayed hus welcome and has signed off on EVERY idea of this franchise. Even the real bad ones.

While I disagree with Edwards' directing being mediocre, I do agree that Koepp, and by extension, the franchise, feels a bit burned out. Dude didn't know where else to go after Dominion, and according to him, the team was struggling to find a way to expand the franchise in a scientifically, realistically believable way!

I feel like part of this is because he, and by extension, Universal, want to stick to what they know best: sticking to small, isolated settings. Everything else be damned.

Honestly, as much as people love the idea of having the setting be in an isolated environment, I don't think staying in such an environment would work in the long run. Almost ALL of the films have done something like this. The only ones who haven't are Fallen Kingdom and the first 2/3rds of Dominion. Sure, those movies weren't of any good quality, but I still find myself drawn more to those films because, at that point, after 4 films of being on an island, the films taking place in a mansion and in areas like the Sierra Nevada area and Malta are something I remember more clearly because, writing notwithstanding, they feel different.

I get it, the smartest decision is for them to not make more movies, but let's face it: we all know Universal. More movies with dinosaurs = more money. But I figured if they're gonna make more, they should move away from the mystery survival and explore other genres: mystery, horror (they never really explain horror, to be honest), or even try action again, but NOT as big or nonsensical as the previous films. I think action CAN work!

That's my hot take on this. I don't hate these movies: I just want these movies to be better and not stagnate.

What's with the switch-up for FNAF World?

I remember back when FNAF World first came out, and people were very divided, to say the least. Honestly, when I looked at it, I never understood why: it looked like a fun RPG side game.

But now...everyone looks back at FNAF World fondly, and with the new teasers confirming a FNAF World 2 as well as a SB sequel (looking forward to THAT one), I'd like to know;

When did we as a fanbase start loving FNAF World, and why?

Vampire Hissing Sounds

A bit of a stupid question, perhaps, but I'm genuinely curious:

I've always had a bit of a thing for sound designs, and one of the things I've liked about certain vampire movies like Van Helsing (2004) and several others is the sound designs of the vampires' roars and snarls.

How do you think movies like these make those sounds? I know parts of it are from the actors themselves, but do they also use animal or other types of sounds? I think it's cool and emphasizes the inhumanity of these monsters, something I want to replicate for my story!!

The casualties in Muldoon's Logs surprises me that the construction of the park is still on-going.

Now, before I explain, I just want to say: I love the Muldoon's Logs series. I think it's an intense, informative, and overall cool series! But...there are some things I have a few problems with.

The main one I have is...with so many casualties shown throughout the series, I'm surprised that InGen hasn't really stepped in and put a halt to it. I suppose they could afford to cover these up, and it was only up until Jophery's death that they started to take it seriously. Yeah, I know it's an AU, but still!

It's one of my few gripes I have with this otherwise great series!

Which Supergirl origin is your favorite: Pre-Crisis or Post-Crisis?

In case anyone gets confused, her Pre-Crisis origin is akin to her origin in the new Supergirl movie: born after Krypton's destruction and left Argo City.

Personally, I like her Post-Crisis origin more. Having her be, chronologically at least, older than Superman and supposed to protect him before her ship got diverted, lost in space, or trapped in the Phantom Zone, left her going to Earth when Superman is an adult...there's a sense of tragedy to that, and I like it!

What about you guys?

Genuienly, how would Muldoon think of Owen and his handling of the raptors? I'd imagine there'd be some agreements, but Muldoon would NOT trust Blue or the others, or Owen's bond with them.

I would honestly imagine it would be like: Muldoon would hear about this man who has trained Velociraptors, and, with his own experience with raptors, he did not really believe it. Of course, when he got approval to visit, he saw what's going on and, while he has respect for Owen and how he raises the raptors, he is still apprehensive, thinking they'll turn on him at any moment.

He'd especially be concerned about Blue: her high intelligence reminding him of the Big One.

What do you guys think? I'm sure this has been answered before, but still: an interesting thought experiment!

My biggest concern for the upcoming FNAF 3 movie is that it'll be better than the 2nd, but also more boring.

At this point, we all know the upcoming FNAF 3 movie has a new writer, one with a hit-or-miss but decent track record (LOVE the It movies), showing that, as much as I despise the FNAF 2 toxic posivity/toxic negativity discourse that came from that, as some users like myself have already pointed out, there IS a silver lining to all of that, and there's a good chance the movie will be much better than FNAF 2 at least.

But I have a couple of concerns about this movie. The first is: with Scott no longer one of the writers (so far), how much of his original vision will be followed? While I'm not big on the writing, especially the dialogue, I think the story is still interesting.

The 2nd and BIGGEST concern, and the reason I'm making this post, is that the upcoming movie will be better, but also boring. As much as I like the new Supergirl movie, if there's one thing that movie taught me... it's that people are not forgiving towards movies that are boring, regardless of whether the writing quality is good or not. Say what you will about FNAF 2, but there are some things to laugh at, whether intentional or unintentional. Even the first film has some moments like that.

I know, I know: it's too early to tell, but I feel like they might take the wrong lessons from the criticisms given from FNAF 2 and try too hard to be scary or serious. And honestly...I feel like that's not entirely what FNAF is. It's more like a Goosebumps type of horror, and that's what makes it as a franchise unique in my opinion.

But what about you guys? Do you agree/disagree? And bonus question: what are your concerns?

Looking at the 'It's for Fans' meme, I noticed something about this particular art...why does Springtrap here look so familiar?

From the "It's for Fans" meme. My own thoughts on it aside (not as hateful as I remembered it to be, or the top comment suggests; just poking fun of the defense that I didn't see much of, even if it did feel a bit spiteful, but I digress), this particular Springtrap art feels...very familiar, and I can't really explain why that is.

Is this drawn by Piemations, or the guy who made the 'This attraction is great, so many guards I can-" music video? Because this reminds me of that

What do you all think of Emma Tammi?

The FNAF movies are my first exposure to her directorial work, and honestly...I think she did a pretty good job! From the interviews I've seen, she does seem to care about the films, which is something I like a lot.

Only gripe I have with her is the use of 'It's for fans.' as a defense. I'm sure she didn't mean anything bad but it, but it can be quite a flimsy defense (even if a bit cathartic...my feelings on criticism are complicated: it's needed, but some people can go overboard. But I digress). But that's...probably the worst I can say about her.

What about you guys? What do you think of Emma Tammi? Do you think she's a good director for the films?
