How did all six of these movies make more than a billion dollars each?


I'm interested to see how this goes, since the Jurassic World trilogy got way worse reviews from critics and yet didn't kick up the same kind of Internet discourse. Of course, I'm increasingly learning just how stupid the Internet is.

Jurassic World 1 was the best of the 6 movies and as bad as the sequels to it were they were still less terrible than the sequels to TFA.

I didn't see it (might with family though), and still voted for JP because I didn't like the other two. I found the first Jurassic World headache-inducing when dinosaurs are not on-screen and whenever I catch it on TV I feel no differently.

I actually just discovered that the fantastic Discworld series is receiving an audiobook upgrade with some truly amazing narrators. Bill Nighy reads the footnotes, Peter Serafanowicz is playing Death in every book, and the main narrators include Indira Varma and Colin Morgan. I've read the series in the past, but these audiobooks really give the entire series a fresh coat of paint.

I voted Jurassic World, but I actually did enjoy the absurdity of the evil monster auction scene in the second movie the most out of any of all six.

Kinda sums it up for me as well. To be fair, I haven't seen the 3rd JW movie but after the first 2 I had no real desire.

Star Wars has two really good ones then ends badly. Jurassic World starts okay, gets bad in the middle and ends badly. Not even a contest at all.

Also frankly even though TRoS is my most disliked of the 6 on a technical level it runs rings around Dominion and the writing isnt nearly as bad as Fallen Kingdom.

Jurassic World didn't have much lore to live up to. 1 was enjoyable, 2 was bad, 3 was just silly.

Star Wars on the other hand is sacred text. 7 was good, 8 crapped all over the franchise, and by 9 it was like who cares, 8 ruined everything, let's just bring back the emperor.

So I enjoyed Star Wars more but I'd consider it the worse of the two trilogies for messing with a thing I like

I feel like I would even take Rise of Skywalker over the first Jurassic World, which I hated enough to not even consider watching the sequels.

I so should have brought in David Gordon Green's Halloween trilogy. No idea how it's the Star Wars sequel trilogy that gets all the crap thrown its way considering. Even when Top Gun: Maverick came out, I saw people talking about how it succeeded where the sequel trilogy failed when I would think a better point of comparison would be Independence Day: Resurgence.

ID4: R and the Zack Snyder-directed DCEU movies were objectively bigger failures than the sequel trilogy. I also find it precious how people act like TLJ's massive second-weekend drop was indicative of the fan backlash even though both Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and The Greatest Showman opened that very weekend. You could argue that Star Wars should have curbstomped them both, but either of those two movies alone is bigger box-office competition than either of Abrams's movies faced (TFA's biggest competition probably being The Revenant and RoS's being 1917). Contrast with Batman v. Superman having an even bigger second-weekend drop (albeit by percentage, not by raw numbers) with fewer excuses.

Rise of Skywalker was legitimately one of the worst films I have ever seen so Jurassic World is better by default.

No.

But it's not trash fire like the last SW movie, at least.
