This is even in-universe in Jurassic World. Indomenous Rex or whatever isn't a fucking dinosaur. It's now a fictional monster, so who cares? I could watch Godzilla or some shit for things that are like dinos. If I'm watching J-Park, I expect fucking actual dinosaurs. That movie tells on itself so much that I actually enjoy it.
Yeah I don't understand how they ran out of ideas and went straight for mutant dino experiment when they've only had a handful of dinosaurs in the entire series. Aren't there like a million other carnivorous dinosaurs scientists have constructed models of? They didn't need to do the mutant thing at all, they could have just used some 'real' predator dino in its place. And they could have done the feathers too! It wouldn't be hard to make them much spookier with feathers too.
Of course the Jurrasic World movies also kind of suck because they've only had like one creepy horror-type scene (the long sequence in the second one). Most of those movies are just people running around with no sense of mystery. The other ones were good because the plot and characters were a bit more up in the air. But they want a sort of Indiana Jones type central hero that they can sell merchandise of or something.
Its fine when it's something obviously fictional like Indomenous rex or Godzilla but when it's a misrepresentation of a real animal to the point that people reject what the real animal actually is, then it's shitty.
I also kinda liked that self-aware aspect of Jurassic World too. Now if only anything else about it was good.
I got nothing against dinosaur-y monsters. Just keep em out of a franchise about dang dinosaurs. And yeah, they should be realistic, it's not like they became less scary.
