I watched Jurassic World: Rebirth the other day (it's alright). It's such an odd franchise - one that seems to have lost faith in its own premise. There's this meta assumption that audiences are bored with dinosaurs (I'm not), and that the solution to this imagined problem is to mutate them (it really isn't, it's invariably just silly).

I also don't care that dinos couldn't really survive in the modern climate - that's what the whole 'suspension of disbelief' thing is for.

Wtf? They couldn't survive? The fukken Nanuqsaurus was a tyrannosaurid living in boreal Alaska. Dinosaurs lived in extremely cold climates and thrived there.
