Jurassic World Dominion: Fans Are Divided on Movie's Use of Giant Locusts (Yes, Really)
Point
prevnextSo I liked #JurassicWorldDominion but like the movie should be about dinosaurs not locusts.

Counterpoint
prevnextPeople losing their shit over the locusts from #JurassicWorldDominion just shows they really don't understand what these movies are about, thematically. They think it revolves solely around the dinosaurs, when the movies, even the first, already states this goes beyond them.

Not a Fan
prevnextI suppose it’s possible to come up with a better movie concept than “killer dinosaurs”. But “big locusts” is not it. #JurassicWorldDominion

Locust World
prevnextBasically, why were dinosaurs in a film about mutant locusts? #JurassicWorldDominion

Ian Says
prevnextI fail to understand why people are pissed the plot of #JurassicWorldDominion was about locusts instead of dinosaurs

prevnextTo sum up Jurassic World Dominion in the wise words of Dr. Ian Malcolm: “Jurassic World, Not a big fan”.
I went to see Dinosaurs, but was shown giant locusts that gave me creeps. #JurassicWorldDominion

Bug Bummer
prevnextWell, I sadly didn’t enjoy #JurassicWorldDominion. Just dull overall. Has some good action setpieces, and it was great seeing the old gang back, the side plots and inclusion of locusts as a plot device just brought everything down for me. Really a let down for me 😞 pic.twitter.com/3EXGdp5jrk

Bug Love
prevnextThe locusts are absolutely fantastic in #JurassicWorldDominion. It completely changes this Movie-Universe in a positive way to show that despite dinosaurs are an issue, there are other major issues going around the globe!

As many people wanted, it’s not just about the dinosaurs!
What About the Dinos, Though?

Not sure how the writers' room got fixated on locusts when they have a HUGE sandbox of dinosaurs to play with. It's... a choice 🤷♀️
"Great Addition"
prevnextThe locusts are actually a great addition to the series, I’m not sure why some critics aren’t taking them seriously. #JurassicWorldDominion pic.twitter.com/8evcTDyoXs
