10 Supposedly Badass Film Moments (That Were Totally Underwhelming)

But extinct animals aren't supposed to have any rights?

Fallen Kingdom spent a lot of time debating the fate of everyone's favourite dinosaurs and whether or not as genetic freaks that were created in a lab, they had a right to live, or be present in this world in the first place when their own ended tens of millions of years ago.

Despite hinting throughout much of the last two films that the franchise was moving ever closer to erasing the older, original dino's from existence and replacing them with human enhanced ones, the ultimate moment they had to take the franchise in a very different direction was ruined by a clone-child pressing a button.

Maisie's identifying with the dinos as a product of human experimentation and deciding they deserved as much of a chance at life as her, was an overly sentimental choice that the scene did not need. Rather than having a fake-out moment when you think the animals will actually die, the film should have either released them straight away or let them die there and then.

The fact that many in the audience probably had already guessed from the films promotional footage that the dinos would end up roaming around the world at some point anyway, made this even less dramatic, and thoroughly underwhelming.
