Why aren't there more dinosaur movies?

Imma have to say naw dawg,

I ain’t watching The Living Dead all over again with humans fighting humans, with dinosaurs sprinkled in.

All good mang. I just want to see a motherfucker riding a triceratops trampling infantry

You're being pedantic, virtually every movie set in the future is in English

Pedantic is true,
But that’s how you get a good movie.

I’m not chasing blockbuster numbers here, I’m in it for an actual good fucking movie. Not something that has great toy sales after release.

Here we are, all clamoring for movies to be set in a real life situations “make it look like real life”.

And here you are just tossing a shit salad against the wall to see what sticks… “it’s okay, they’ll buy it”.

Shame on you!

That would be tight!!

I think that would work better in like a LOTR type of flick. You can get away with that easier with that genre.

The premise is humans interacting with dinos, it's fictional. Just like Mad Max and Dune.

There's other shark movies besides Jaws. Why aren't there more dinosaur movies outside of the Jurassic Park franchise?

This Turok: Son of Stone animated movie from a few years back

 

[some random guy]

“Supposedly” Dinosaurs and Humans didn’t exist at the same time so you can’t make a prehistoric movie about the two interacting together.

 

[some random guy]

I'd be down with an Apocalyptic take on the Jurassic Park premise.

Man creates dinos.
Inadvertently create prehistoric virus that kills lots of humans and ends civilization.

Fast forward 100s of years to movie setting where Dinos spread and repopulate.

Mad Max meets Jurrasic Park = Dinopocalypse.

 

[Fedorgasm]

How fucking dare you.

I'm sorry. I take it back.


GGI isn't that expensive.

A live action based on the original comic would be cool

Damn!

I remember playing that game on N64..

I’ve never seen those,

How far into the future are those movies supposedly set?

 

[MLarson]

I wanted to see that movie but sadly I didn't hear great things about it.

Had to nurse that wound!

 

[Protectandserve]

Not a movie, but there were rumors that it might have been the plan to make a live action movie about it.

I would just enjoy a re release of the original episodes. I had them on VHS way back in the day along with the toys.

 

[HARRISON_3]

Not sure why there aren’t more dinosaur romcoms, tbh

GOAT movie

 

[blaseblase]

That King Kong movie Peter Jackson did had probably the most badass dino action outside of Jurassic Park. Someone could make a movie like that about exploring a lost island, just without King Kong. You wouldn't even need dinosaurs, there's tons of prehistoric creatures to pull from.

Not a movie entirely about Dinos but Transformers: The Movie (1986) featured the Dinobots.
