>>7463198>Now it turns out she was special from infancy, was unique among raptors, is so special that they need her DNA, outright understands human emotions and body language, also somehow smart enough to know that a gas leak means an imminent explosion. They took it too far in FK.I didn't think it was thaaaat bad. I thought the point was less that she was a special raptor, and more that she just happened to be one that was more pack-minded than her other peers, and finding those particular animals and valuing them over more aggressive and less-useful peers is how animal domestication works. It only comes off as 'unique' because they only breed these things a handful at a time, so one raptor in a clutch of four or five translates to 'one raptor' instead of just a percentage of animals that we can find agreeable traits in.
I also thought Wu needed any raptor DNA at all just to try and figure out how to combat the weird mutant health issues the Indoraptor had, but he was also going to jump at the chance if he could particularly get the DNA of a raptor that was proven to be more easily trainable and also less liable to turn into a psychopath this time.
As for Blue's behavior, eh. A lot of animals can sense things from human body language and behavior, and I assumed the gas leak thing was because of course animals will run from weird-smelling gases, especially ones that have to deal with volcanic conditions. Basically this movie was pushing it, but I gave the Blue thing a pass.
But eh, I feel like the Jurassic Park franchise in general is also suffering from having fans that want dinos to be monsters, fans that want dinos to be characters, and fans that want dinos to just be animals, and varying opinions on how interested anyone is on the prolifieration of Genetic Modification which was half the point of the series in the first place. FK tried to please everyone, and instead pissed everyone off.
