We really won't talk about those "velociraptors"? The annoying kid at the beginning of the movie was the only one to get their description surprisingly accurate when he said they looked like a 2m turkey.
Velociraptors? Nowadays we have Wall Street
Also, wrong continent for Velociraptors (they were in Hell Creek Montana/South Dakota). Velociraptors are found in China/Mongolia.
Deinonychus or UtahRaptors are the right size and continent, but don't sound as cool as "Velociraptor"
I mean, I don't think the film says that they stuck to cloning local dinos.
I'm referring to the beginning of the first movie where Grant discovers a Velociraptor, while being in South Dakota.
Ah. Been many moons since I watched it.
But a very smart one!
This has been talked about again and again yes. Thymey wanted them bigger for better visual result, they made them bigger
I thought that they were a little smaller too
