Questions I Have About "Jurassic World"



Did the Indominus Rex always plan on escaping?

You'd think so, but then why did it take the time to eat one of the workers, while still inside its cage? (Remember, part of his plan to lure them into the cage was to forego food.) Was it just curious what humans tasted like?

Why was Owen training the raptors before Vincent D'Onofrio's military contractor shows up?

What was the point?

On what planet does training raptors to be soldiers make any damn sense?

In this age of the highly trained and well-equipped super-soldier, lizard brains are going to win the next war?

How is it possible that the Indominus gained the ability to camouflage from cuttlefish DNA and to regulate its heat from tree frog DNA?

I get that this is playing off of the business in "Jurassic Park" about the dinos being able to switch genders from their frog DNA--but that was presented as a weird biological fluke. Now this animal is somehow selecting advantageous traits from the entire genome of its contributors. Do you realize how large and complex DNA is, how unlikely it would be that the Indominus would just happen to get those characteristics? Twice?

Why does Dr. Wu say "you cannot have an animal with exaggerated predator features without the corresponding behavioral traits?"

It's sounds scientific and logical, but falls apart after a moment's thought. You're telling me these genetic wizards couldn't design a fearsome-looking lizard that just chills? Isn't that kind of what we did with the dog?

Why does Gray say they need "more teeth?" He wasn't around to hear Henry Wu use that phrase to describe the order to design the Indominus.

It's not like it's a normal way to say "more dinosaurs."
