13 Dumb Decisions In Jurassic Park Movies We Can't Forgive

11. Talking To The Velociraptors - Jurassic Park III

At the beginning of JP3, the audience is provided a scene in which a replicated Velociraptor larynx is blown like a flute, mimicking those haunting cackles we've heard in previous films. This obviously brings back worrisome memories for Alan, but the moment passes and it's never brought up again.

Later in the film; events transpire that seemingly fall into place. The intelligence of the Raptors setting a trap for the humans, one of them calling for help when pinned against a cage door, and the inevitable realization that the Raptors are hunting the humans because Billy pilfered two of their eggs.

What does all this mean you might ask? Well, the final interaction the battered and bruised humans have with a dinosaur on Isla Sorna, is with the hunting Velociraptors who want their eggs back.

The humans offer the eggs back, and as a distraction, Alan takes out the raptor larynx and plays some classical beats to confuse and scatter the raptors.

It's one of the dumbest moments in the film, and would have been less painful if there hadn't seen anything similar earlier on in the film. But don't worry, I'll get to THAT bit later.

I overthink a lot of things. Will talk about pretty much anything for a great length of time. I'm obsessed with General Slocum from the 2002 Spider-Man film. I have questions that were never answered in that entire trilogy!
