Hopefully the mistakes made in the movie will not repeat itself in the game! And the right things they did please include in the game!

1. We don’t see enough of the park
This was also the problem with Tomorrowland. There's a tantalising glimpse of the "assets", and how impressive Jurassic World is, but not nearly enough time soaking up the awe-inspiring sight of the dinosaurs. More of the park, please. And no, this does not mean the Samsung Innovation Center, although a Razzie for Worst Product Placement surely looms.
2. We don’t see enough women
“But all the dinosaurs are female,” bleats some joker, for eternity.
Twenty years after Jurassic Park, science can splice up brand new dinosaurs, and the “regular” kind are so boringly obvious that objectionable teens cannot be bothered to look at them. Yet science simply cannot design a human woman capable of being a practical, all-round capable individual! It must be all that #distractinglysexy business.
Trevorrow has assembled an impressively multicultural cast, which only serves to highlight the extreme lameness of the few women characters. There is uptight park manager woman who keeps having “what animals are” explained to her by exasperated computer tech guy who should have been Jeff Goldblum; perennially worried and powerless computer tech woman whose role is never made clear but she’s a female character so phew, that's one ticked off the list; and then there’s uptight British PA, who has a death so lingering and awful that you can’t work out whether she’s being punished for being British, or so badly written. And then there’s the children's Mom. You might have thought she worked as a high-powered lawyer given her early scene crying outside a conference room, but no! She’s just getting a divorce. Oh, Mom.
For a generation who, like Chris Pratt, grew up with the first film, it was cool that Dr Ellie Sattler was there. A woman paleobotanist, who knew things, like how to pronounce paleobotanist.
In Jurassic World, you can’t do this. There are no female role models – no well-written female characters, either, unless you look at the dinosaurs, and as pretty much all of them get blasted with guns by men, theirs is not a story arc that inspires great thoughts.
3. Where are all the walls and fences?
The movie Jurassic Park was a success because the actual Jurassic Park was such a disaster. Without the weak infrastructure and slapdash safety measures implemented by Hammond and Co., the film would have been a pleasant but ultimately boring infomercial peppered with Jeff Goldblum's awkward laughter. We want things to go wrong in a Jurassic movie, for humanity to learn a lesson about the consequences of playing God, etc -- but that hubris and stupidity leading up to dinosaurs eating people on the has to be somewhat believable.
Case in point: In the first movie, we see that the park is equipped with gargantuan electrified fences. It seems believable that this kind of heavy equipment could keep prehistoric carnivores in check.
Of course, the whole plan falls apart when humanity a) underestimates the ingenuity and determination of nature's creatures and b) underestimates Dennis Nedry's capacity to be an . A perfect storm of unruly animals, trecherous employees and uh, a perfect storm proves undoes every one of Jurassic Park's security countermeasures.
You'd think that when it came to Jurassic World, humanity would take a few cues from that time 20 years ago when everything went horribly, murderously wrong, but it seems like they actually have dialed down safety measures compared to the old park. The most glaring flaw: From what we see in the movie, Jurassic World has barely any fences or walls. Sure, the raptors and the Indominus Rex have their own fortified enclosures, but outside of those there isn't much preventing the dinosaurs from rampaging through the restricted area down into the theme park.
The biggest barrier we see is the gate for the gyrosphere area, which pales in comparison to those huge electrified fences in Jurassic Park.
The GPS implants imply some kind of invisible fence technology at work, but the folks at Jurassic World had to have known that wouldn't be enough. If just one tracker went on the fritz, there'd be nothing stopping a triceratops from goring up to three park guests simultaneously. Even though this is a world where people are stupid enough to build another Jurassic Park to begin with, there's no excuse for not building multiple failsafes into their security protocols.
Judging by the map of the island, you'd think that at some point we'd have seen a giant Attack On Titan-sized wall surrounding the Restricted Area, but nothing like that appears in the movie -- probably because it would have put a damper on the I-Rex's rampage
Then again, Jurassic World would have never had this problem in the first place if people were wiser.
4. Indominus Rex should have never gotten out
Though the central calamity of Jurassic Park was brought on by a multitude of factors, the entire crisis of Jurassic World can be blamed on one pivotal moment. Yes, the cunning Indominus Rex hatches a surprisingly complex plan of escape, but it wouldn't have worked if not for the fact that every human in the area was popping Stupid Pills. Remember, the I-Rex fools everyone into thinking it's not in its enclosure by thermal camoflauge and its own personal Klingon cloaking device, while purposefully scratching up the cement wall to give the impression that it had already escaped. Baffled, the park's staff of yahoos (which includes Chris Pratt's Owen) saunter into the supposedly empty enclosure to try to figure out what happened.
Naturally, it is soon revealed that the I-Rex was in the cage all along.
The command center comes to this conclusion by zeroing on the I-Rex's tracker, which at this point has not yet been excised from its flesh. But it's too late -- three people have already ventured into the paddock to investigate, and are stuck in the enclosure with the genetic monstrosity. For supposed dinosaur experts, this is by far the dumbest move anyone could make. The very first thing anyone would do is check the GPS coordinates of the dinosaur to see if it had truly escaped. When you think there might be a fire on the other side of a door, you check the for heat before opening it. But the characters in Jurassic World seem like they'd prefer walking into the open blaze just to see how flame retardant their cargo vests are.
There was nothing to be gained from going out into the paddock. The scratches they were investigating could easily be seen from the safety of the control room, at what looks like a better vantage point.
Because of this massive oversight, because Claire and Owen didn't perform the most nominal of checks before entering the most dangerous area of the park, the I-Rex was unleashed.
Then again, if the dummies at JW weren't such dumb dummies, there wouldn't be a movie. At best, we'd get a drama about two teen boys grappling with their parents' divorce while dinosaurs roam in the background. Don't get me wrong, I'd probably also watch that, but I think we can all agree that dinosaurs are at their best when they're terrorizing an island full of tourists.
5. Where did they get the DNA for the Mosasaurus?
The first Jurassic Park movie goes through great pains to answer that burning question: "How the hell do we have dinosaurs in the first place?" Spielberg and Co. came up with a pretty clever answer in the form of an in-movie informational video. The cartoony Mr. DNA dances across the screen and explains with a Foghorn Leghorn drawl that the creation of dinosaurs hinges on the discovery of fossilized mosquitoes.
So, after dining on the sweet fleshy nectar of a dinosaur, ancient bloodsuckers became trapped in tree sap. Millions of years later, scientists drilled into the amber and got at the precious prehistoric blood inside the mosquito. It also makes for a nice paperweight and a killer cane topper.
We can forgive the fact that any recovered dino DNA would be unusable after deterioating over 65 million years, in the same way we can forgive The Walking Dead for siphoning gas way after its expiration date. It's just something we accept as part of the universe.
But what doesn't make sense, even in the canon of the movie, is how you get DNA from an aquatic dinosaur
Though mosquitoes can land on, and in special circumstances even submerge under water, it beggars belief that one of the bugs managed to pierce the hide of the Mosasaurus, suck its blood and escape -- and later be subject to the horrifying but unlikely death of tree sap suffocation. It's almost as though this movie with genetic monster dinosaurs doesn't add up.
6. Everything about the Pteronadon attack
Though the I-Rex is responsible for a lot of carnage out in the jungle, maybe the most harrowing scene in the movie comes when a huge flock of pteronadons and big-headed dimorphodons launch an invasion on the "Main Street" of Jurassic World. Though the terrified masses scattered and attempted to hide in the local Buffalo Wild Wings while cradling their double-fisted margaritas, several patrons were killed in the attack.
It's an exciting scene while you're watching it, but it doesn't take long to realize it doesn't make any sense. These birdinos weren't built to be superagressive megapredators like the Indominus Rex, so it's really strange to think that they'd swarm and attack the closest living thing once they got free. Okay, maybe that's not fair -- the humans weren't the closest living thing. After the Indominus Rex busted them out, the pteronadons had to fly for miles before reaching the human populace.
What seems like the vast majority of the park's pteronadons head straight for the humans, even though they could have flown in literally any other direction. In Jurassic Park III, the escaped pteronadons booked it the off the island the first chance they got. Yet, the pteronadons of Jurassic World seem agitated and angry, almost vengeful in their quest to expand their territory by attacking the humans they apparently see as rivals.
That's another weird thing, though -- without their wings, the pteronadons seem like they're close to human sized. They need a pretty large wingspan in order to lift their own bodies off the ground, much less a full-grown human. Does this physics-breaking attack make the movie more fun? Well, yeah. But maybe instead they could have featured a few mega-pterosaurs that the Jurassic World science team came up with to make it a touch more believable. If InGen can make genetic hybrid monsters and magically whip up aquatic dino DNA, they could cook up pretty much anything in that lab.
7. Are there really no automated controls on those gyrospheres?
Those gyrospheres are super cool and I definitely want one, but they've gotta be expensive as hell. A marvel of technology, the futuristic hamster balls manage to be extra sturdy and also somehow collect no dirt whatsoever. Though there are on-screen instructions, the nature of the attraction allows parkgoers to freely roam around a plain filled with gentle herbivores. It's a great idea in theory -- the freedom and ease of use of the gyrospheres are unprecedented as far as tourist attractions go -- but you've got to imagine they're also a huge liability.
But when everything goes to hell, there is no backup plan. The screen just plays a voiceover advisory set against the horrifying imagery of Jimmy Fallon moments before being consumed by a laboratory fire.
Like teens making out in the high school bathroom closet ignoring a fire drill, Gray and Zach choose not to heed the message asking them to file in back to the park. It's not even their fault, because anyone in a hyper-advanced gyrosphere probably figures "Well, they're not guiding us back remotely, so it must not be a real emergency." But as it turns out, there's no override for the park to call back its gyrospheres. This is despite the fact that they can easily pinpoint their location:
This sci-fi theme park has brought back dinosaurs, created human-sized hamster balls and even squeezed in a Margaritaville, but somehow lacks the technology to keep its customers safe in case of a life-threatening emergency.
That said, if Jurassic World were real, we'd all still go anyway.
