Can you at least make an argument. I thought those movies were garbage. The only reason they got any fanfare because they lived in the shadow of the magnificent original, just like Matrix 2 and 3.

JP2 wasn't terrible. The black chick was fricking terrible, but overall, it wasn't horrible. Yea, it had some stupid scenes and I'd rather they follow the book, but compared to JP3, JP2 was Oscar-worthy.

JP3 was beyond fricking terrible. Just flat out, balls to the wall fricking stupid. A kid survives by himself in the dino infested jungle living off candy bars and stopping dinosaurs with jars of T-rex piss.

Yea, ok. Then throw in the stupid fricking raptor throat whistle. Seriously? Why the hell would the raptors just stop? They would've eaten the shite out of them. Raptor throat whistle my arse.

And then, don't try to tell me that the T-rex would get killed by that bitch of a fish eating dino. Just a bunch of stupid all around.

Sure, but let's not ignore the fact that you've made zero arguments as to why you think they're "terrible."

Were they as good as the original? Of course not. I thought they were pretty solid for sequels though. I thought two was good even though I didn't like the end (in the city). And there were other parts of 2 that were stupid (like the gymnastic black daughter), but all in all it was pretty good. I actually thought 3 was really solid, especially for a third installment. I liked some of the new dinosaurs they introduced, and the settings (I thought the birdcage thing was cool). Aside from some campy-ish stuff (like being able to communicate with raptors) I thought it was pretty well-done, and could've been longer (it seemed really short).

Of course, I went into them not expecting them to live up to the original, because that would've been stupid. But IMO for sequels, they did a good job.
