10 Problems A Jurassic World Sequel Must Address

1. A Compelling, Character-Driven Story (With No More Kids)

Everyone gets it - Jurassic Park has inter-generational appeal, and the producers want to draw in viewers from every possible walk of life. And so, in every film in the series to date, you've had kids - usually of the precocious variety - take centre stage. That was fine in the first film, when it was Tim and Lex, but then came The Lost World, and Ian Malcolm's daughter Kelly, who somehow maintains her cool and manages to kick a raptor in the face with some gymnastic moves. And right about there the original trilogy lost its way. You might as well have given her a superhero name at that point. Jurassic Park III, which brought Dr. Grant back into the fold, was entirely centred on the rescue of a child who had been on an aerial tour of Isla Sorna (Site B), a kid who was actually an improvement on the second film - though the child managed to survive, it was essentially by hiding out and being smart, rather than fighting dinosaurs. Which brings us to Jurassic World. Again, a couple of kids get lost in the jungle. And while they did an admirable job, it just has to stop. No more kids, please! There's more than enough going for the series to get fans of all generations in the door. Shoehorning kids in isn't necessary! Give Chris Pratt's Owen a compelling reason to go back to the island, or get involved with InGen again. Create a solid supporting cast. The lack of kids won't be missed - the dinosaurs are the selling point anyway. Agree with these changes that need to be made? Share your sequel suggestions down in the comments.
