#camp cretaceous mosasaurus

[swan2swan]

Until someone from the staff says otherwise, I will stake actual, genuine money that this was an exchange from the writer's room that made it into the show.

he dropped a gallon of koolaid (he's clincally insane)

[silverthelovebug]

Okay, so, who do I have to commission to make a “Yaz dies from the Mosasaurus” fic?

NOBODY GIVE ME WEIRD LOOKS BECAUSE YOU GUYS LOVE MAKING BEN ACTUALLY DIE TO THE PTERANODONS !!! I’ve seen the fics ,,

The scenes happen back to back too, so it’s like — almost equal amounts of angst !! Because when Yaz breaks her ankle and Sammy runs over to her, she’s still pissed at Sammy, so imagine the guilt Sammy must feel if she watches Yaz die in front of her without ever making things right ??? Not to mention Ben’s guilt of feeling like he caused her death bc he was slowing them down with Bumpy. Maybe even Kenji too for not pulling her to safety fast enough with the feeding hook !!

Which is an ironic name..

I’d write it myself if I had the motivation to finish things ..

Dave gives off sexist vibes in first half of season 1.

He repeatedly undermined and downplayed Roxie’s authority and focused almost entirely on the boys, barely interacting with Sammy, Brooklyn, and Yaz,

I always interpreted his interactions with Roxie like a general insecurity and figured he'd act like that with any other camp counsellor.

But that's kinda true he doesn't interact with the girl campers nearly enough.

Thoughts?

Mosasaurus

I imagine it would have felt like a jinx otherwise.

They were all on a train one time, talking about what they would do when they got home, and fifteen minutes later, Ben was dead. A few hours after that, and they were stranded on the island.

They were NOT taking chances until they were far away from that island.

I love how it took the campers 4 whole seasons to think about writing everyone's contact information on a piece of paper

Camp Cretaceous reaffirming my belief that Bryce Dallas Howard’s character in Jurassic World should have gone to JAIL these kids were already stumbling into dinosaur paddocks before the Indominus even escaped!! Why does the river ride have an alternate tunnel leading directly into the Mosasaurus exhibit lmao?!

[thisisindeedausername]

my favourite part of the earlier camp cretaceous seasons has gotta be Ben suggesting they feed the people to the mosasaurus. kid came back and immediately suggested murder

[skin-slave]

Getting everything ready for their arrival party.

Can't talk rn, I'm doing hot girl shit.

*brings the kids back to Mantacorp Island to hunt Daniel for sport*

[swan2swan]

She has never got anything less.

[stagbeetleboy]

Anyway the reason my long standing obsession with Jurassic park is back bc my niece has taken I liking to dinosaurs and we’ve been watching camp cretaceous.

She just turned two and saying shit like brontosaurus (her favorite) and mosasaurus. Children are insane.

[circusclownsam]

Did anyone else not trust tiff and Mitch the minute they came on screen?

Because I didn’t. And the overuse of the word ‘babe’ rubs me the wrong way.

Also, why couldn’t they just have- dumped the guns into the mosasaurus’ pen? That way the couple wouldn’t have been able to get them without being eaten alive.

dm me privately to do a camp Cretaceous rp.

[rupphiremoyo]

not only did we lose darius's field guide but we also lost yaz's sketchbook, sammy's usb drive, and the drawing of the camp fam that yaz made for sammy 💔

Every time I remember we lost Darius's field guide in the shipwreck, a fairy loses its wings

[imthepunchlord]

If you could make a fix it fic, which fandom would you do it? For me, it would be Jurassic, because... there's a lot of "what an idiot" moments on the franchise, same with Star Wars.

Oh gosh, I have a growing list. I can't just stick to one! There's so many I have to ask the writer(s) what are you even doing?

Since you mentioned Jurassic in the ask, I'll keep the focus there, cause I do have issues with the franchise and there are some ideas I could think of to change up the series. Though it would be more directed towards the World films. JP1 and JP2 I can't think of anything I really need to fix, and JP3 only thing I'd have changed is the removal of the dumb dream. That was silly. But the rest of the film I was good with.

Now JW1, which was the best of the World films, at most I'd do minor tweaks. Make the older brother less creepy and stop staring at girls. Remove the mention that the brothers parents are getting a divorce, we don't need that. It's just pointless exposition. I'd also either overhaul Owen's character or replace him. Like, removing the actor from him and viewing him as a character, he's unlikable and just doesn't click with the other lead Claire, cause they're both stiff in different ways, she's controlling and orderly while he's gruff and hostile and it just wasn't pleasant seeing them work off each other. Maybe... given that raptors are social animals, the trainer should be sociable and a little playful, but gets serious as required.

JW2 I'd just overhaul all together, work off the trailers more. Like, at most, I'll give the film that the Indoraptor was hilarious cause that thing thought he was in his own horror film, but for a film that was built up on dinosaurs getting loose, and our era is about to be a "fallen kingdom" and we're truly about to enter Jurassic World; well the movie should've been more about that. And given the opening, maybe it should've been that the Mosasaurus should've been the focal big antagonist of the film. Have Claire spending her life focusing on the dinosaurs and handling the mess of the fallen theme park, being in charge of handling the dinosaurs and overseeing the island. And it's discovered the Mosasaur got out and Claire is to assist in the termination as it's doing a lot of damage in the ocean, and while this sea horror film is going on with the Mosasaur, in the B plot, Biosyn is coming to the island to gather up the dinosaurs, with Dodgson leading the way. Idk how, but the two plots will come together, and because Biosyn is over ambitious, dinosaurs break free are now loose in the United States and is set to some how spread to other parts of the world. And that would be Dominion, full blown dinosaur apocalypse with people trying to survive, and adapt to dinosaurs now being a part of life and can come and go wherever they please, and seeing what changes have to be made and just embrace the horror of this setting. I'd also like the Camp Cretaceous kids make cameos.

Speaking of which, I'd overhaul s4 of Camp Cretaceous too. I'd go that the Mosasaur pushes the campers onto Site B and they got to survive on the new island, and it keeps dinosaurs as the focal threat with our old buddy Spino, we see the rex from JP2 grown up, and of course the raptors. This will also be the season for Sammy to shine a little as Mantah Corp is here to do illegal experimentation, which maybe here is where you get to see the Indoraptor as I cut that out in my idea of JW2. And the guy that blackmailed Sammy's family is here, and she and him are going to have an actual confrontation for what he did to her and her family. I'd also reveal that Mantah Corp picked up on the SOS signal and purposely ignored it. And it could be set up that s4 they were able to get a hold of Mantah Corp's tech and get a message out that Dave and Roxie and Darius' older brother picks up and keep in them coming in to help in s5. Also the scientist they come across in s4, I'd either cut her out entirely as she was kinda pointless, or make her another Mantah Corp operative, not kept in the dark about what they're doing, but she also wasn't here for child murdering, so she helps the kids however she can.

I'd keep in Kenji and Darius making up, but change up the reasoning, instead of Kenji's mad at Darius for endangering his (apparent) crush Brooklyn, he's mad because all the campers are his first time friends, he had lost Ben, he nearly lost Sammy, and so soon Brooklyn is in danger right now and Darius left her in that danger (though she did tell him to leave her). And he was mad at Darius for taking that risk for their friend cause between Sammy and Ben, it really clicked for him how terrifying it is knowing that another is in danger. And I would clarify that Kenji isn't wrong in his feelings, but it is something he needs to get past cause now isn't the time for there to be tension in the group.

Also, if any couple is going to be made official in s4, it's going to be Yaz and Sammy.

As for the matter of PTSD, I'm going to clarify that all the kids have PTSD. I am baffled that s4 claimed that Darius, the 12 yo who had to step up as the leader of these kids, struggling to survive, running from dinosaurs that wanted to kill him, had to deal with bounty hunters that wanted to kill them, and the horror that was the Scorpius Rex; apparently doesn't have PTSD, that he's good. Yeah that can go. That felt like some cheap means to try and separate Darius from the group and help establish Kenji as the new leader; yeah that go out the window. That was irritating.

As for Kenji's dad being in charge of Mantah Corp... I actually still need to watch s5, but I'd lean that he isn't. Like, the man is a VIP at the park, he has his own spot on the park that's isolated and exclusive to him, he has access to hidden routes under the island that can go into any of the exhibits. Why does his company need to hire a teenager to be a spy and gather dna and intel for him???

And for sure, I'd have CC officially end around the time that FK ends, and when Darius sees a dinosaur in his neighborhood, there is horror and dread in his face cause that's not supposed to be here, and that ends with your build up for Dominion, and setting the tone of what's to come.

And so concludes Punchie's ranty rewrite of the Jurassic franchise. I hope you guys like it better than what we got.

Anonymous sent: 🔥 + Jurassic Park series

Send me a “ 🔥 “ for an unpopular opinion.

I'm personally sick of the argument of "the dinosaurs aren't scary anymore" in the Jurassic World movies. For one thing, they can still be scary. Not even taking the hybrids into account, they still can pose a threat like the raptors, the Carnotaurus, T-Rex, Mosasaurus. Hell, even herbivores like Oranosaurus can be threatening. Thing is that it's not just the movies where the dinosaurs are threatening. Battle at Big Rock had the Allosaurus, Camp Cretaceous had the Oranosaurs, Nothosaurus, the Mosasaurus, even the Spinosaurus as well. And I don't even need to see Chaos Theory to know there are quite a few threatening dinos there as well.

And even then, let's not forget that these movies are treating the dinosaurs as what they were in the first place; animals, not monsters. Animals only attack when threatened or hungry or just possibly agitated.

And people like to bring up that it "makes Ian Malcolm wrong". No it doesn't. It's not just all about whether chaos and mayhem happens with these dinosaurs roaming around. It's also a case of we made our bed, so we sleep in it. We grow, learn, adapt, and survive in a world with dinosaurs in the same period as us.

Also if anyone doesn't think the scene in Fallen Kingdom with the Brachiosaurus on the docks was sad as fuck, then we can't be friends. That scene had me tear up in the theaters.

[swan2swan]

Getting their full use out of the Mosasaurus would have led to a much shorter Camp Cretaceous and a much longer Chaos Theory.

Not sure if maximizing the mosasaurus would've led to fewer issues or more... 🤔
