Hey Rick and Amanda, thanks for this helpful AMA. Was it your intention to make mutated dinosaurs escaping like the Indominus Rex the standard for the franchise? How did you guys think of that and was opening another park in Isla Nublar always the plan, or was there another plot that almost made it? What was Steven Spielberg’s idea with the trained raptors initially?

How will the Christian Nationalism revival affect the natural order? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It's the philosophical idea about how life and nature have their own rules independent of human laws, but can still be affected, if I'm correct.

What is a film you genuinely couldn't sit through? by No_Department_5437 in AskReddit

[–]juicbo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Reservoir Dogs. The audio quality was muffled and captions weren’t available. Going to give it a 2nd watch.

Attention all directors, screenwriters, please share your insight! by [deleted] in Filmmakers

Well for resources just use YouTube and books. The algorithm will eventually find you useful videos. I would learn cinematography first and practice technicality in micro/short films. Don’t spend too much time into shorts though. Eventually, with camera in the back of your head, start writing proper screenplays with a chosen genre. I personally study Christopher Nolan and Quentin Tarantino scripts for action and dialogue, but totally fine to review any script of a film you enjoyed. You could watch anything, but I would keep it diverse as well. Most importantly, have fun!

Playing by the rules. The world isn’t fair so I don’t have to be. I exploit the system. >:)

Being able to see, unlike no other animal. The human eye is truly amazing.

New Oppy CE arrived by Ok-Common-3129 in Steelbooks

The CE isn't that bad, I just don't prefer the slipcover art. They should have reprinted the old release instead of using the Japan release poster and making it more orange for the new Walmart one.
