I normally try to avoid trailers, clips, promos, etc. I made an exception this time, and just watched the clip in question. I would say it is sexually suggestive, which doesn't necessarily equate to sexist, but I can see why Joss reacted the way he did. He has since apologized, but I don't think he should have.

I still have no interest. I have to assume they are treating this like a reboot, because if the history of the three other films in the franchise are still in play, anyone who felt safe going to that park is stupid.

Ok, so I've seen Jurassic World and today I saw San Andreas. San Andreas was better. I'll take a tsunami over a T-rex fight, I guess. Wouldn't mind seeing it again, actually.

Jurassic World just annoyed me. The lead chick was obnoxious. I hate it when prissy women make that "tssst" sound after every other word. Makes me wanna smack 'em for being pretentious because you don't need to do that unless you have a lisp. And Joss was totally right about someone being stuck in the 70's. You take out the updated tech and it COULD have been set about then.

Even my kid hated her....

Crap job with character development then, I still didn't like her by the end.

I'd rather hate the villains, than the chick the guy ends up with at the end. I mean, it's not exactly a relationship ta root for (and believe me- I didn't!)

Maybe they were going for the whole "there's no villains here, just flawed people to be redeemed" She's not worth it....

Don't disagree with what ya said. But then, the 2 boys were annoying as well, imo.

Also, Claire sort of reminded me, more than a little, of Rachel from Orphan Black. At least, that's how she started off the movie. There was suppose to be this great transformation as she began to see things differently , blah blah blah. Would have been funnier and more true to form had she stayed in origianl B-mode, despite seeing the real world, up close and personal.
