History Film / JurassicWorldDominion

* DavidVersusGoliath: One of few scenario’s where the ''T. rex'' can ever be considered the “David” but she is clearly the underdog in the climatic fight that takes place in the Biosyn courtyard considering she is going up against the notably larger and younger ''Giganotosaurus'' that previously bullied her away from a deer carcass.

** After 29 years since its debut in the original film, the ''Dilophosaurus'' returns, and it's keeping up its trend of [[spoiler:killing off antagonists]].

''Jurassic World Dominion'' is an ActionAdventure [[DinosaurMedia Dinosaur]] film directed by Creator/ColinTrevorrow. It is the sixth and, so far, [[GrandFinale final]] installment in the ''Franchise/JurassicPark'' franchise.

* HeroesWantRedheads: Kayla banters with Owen about their preference for red-haired women.

* GreyAndGrayMorality: There is no real hero or villain in the three-way dinosaur battle between the ''T.Rex'', ''Giganotosaurus'' and ''Therizinosaurus'', as they are all simply animals acting on instinct and with no actual cruelty or malice even though all three have menaced humans in the past with the ''T.Rex'' having actually killed and eaten people, luckily people who had it coming.

* DinkyDilophosaur: The ''Dilophosaur'' keeps its size from the original Jurassic Park - about chest-high. Owen throttles one easily with his bare hands.

* {{Fantasy}}: The film's plot is basically a typical fantasy adventure, just with genetic engineering and super science replacing magic and dinosaurs replacing fantastical beasts, to wit: A knight and lady (Owen and Claire) must travel to a lost realm that within contains a magical city (the Biosyn research complex) and many dangerous, mythical beasts (the dinosaurs) hidden high in the mountains (the Biosyn sanctuary) to rescue a princess and her pet (Maisie and Beta) from the clutches of a tyrannical overlord (Dodgson). Meanwhile, a trio of veteran adventurers (Grant, Ellie, and Malcolm) discover that said overlord intends to use his black magic (bio-engineering) to spread a terrible plague (the genetically modified locusts) over all the lands in order to rule the world. Both sets of characters end up meeting roughly around the third act and work together to achieve their otherwise separate goals.

* DinkyDilophosaur: Taken to a frankly ridiculous extreme. Obviously, [[Film/JurassicPark1993 the original]] ''Jurassic Park'' film is the TropeMaker, but it left it ambiguous enough, and implied that the one ''Dilophosaurus'' we saw might be a baby. Here, there is a whole pack of dinky dilos, and Owen defeats one by throttling it with his bare hands.

** Delancourt runs afoul of this back-to back. First, while being chased by Owen through the Amberclave market, he shoots open the cages containing an ''Allosaurus'' and a ''Carnotaurus'' thinking to create an obstacle for Owen, only for latter dinosaur to take a lunge at ''him'' first and send him tumbling into the fighting pit area where a barely-chained ''Baryonyx'' takes a few snaps at him. Then, instead of continuing to flee as soon as the opportunity presents itself, he opts to fight Owen man-to-man in one of the pits and gets himself pinned down by a juvenile ''Carnotaurus'' and a ''Lystrosaurus'' while the ''Baryonyx'' finally breaks free and moves in to chomp on his face, killing him.

** Owen and Kayla really should be experiencing symptoms of hypothermia being underdressed as they are in a high-altitude, low-temperature environment cold enough to freeze over a lake. Owen especially should be unable to move after falling through the ice.

*** The ''Therizinosaurus'' terrorizing Claire brings to mind the first game where Regina is menaced by this species. Apparently, this species seems to have a thing for redheads.

* FlippingTheBird: Given she's just been kidnapped, [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FU7BA_QUEAUPQRO?format=jpg&name=large Maisie clearly is not having anyone's BS]].

* MonsterOfTheWeek: ''Giganotosaurus'' is the new carnivore threat after the ''T. rexes'', ''Spinosaurus'', ''Indominus Rex'' and ''Indoraptor'' before it (albeit without the others' human body count).

** Grant has a prominently featured abundance of therizinosaur [[note]] Not ''Therizinosaurus'' itself, but more likely from specimens of ''Nothronychus'' or ''Falcarius'', given their size[[/note]] claws among the collection of fossils in his tent. Guess which species of theropod we meet about halfway through the film.

** ''Giganotosaurus'' debuted in ''VideoGame/WarpathJurassicPark'', and here, it has the same oddly angular head and builds as its game counterpart. It also has the same odd spinal spikes as the ''Acrocanthosaurus'' of the same game.

** Alan Grant finally sports a beard his [[Literature/JurassicPark book counterpart was described to have]].

** Speaking of Clarence, the hunt for Beta is reminiscent of, if not outright based on, the scene where we met him. In the original novel, Grant was moving quietly through a darkened area of the park while the power was off, heard something stalking him, and fired a tranquilizer gun he'd picked up, striking the juvenile raptor mid-leap just as Clarence pounces at him. In this film, Grant, Owen, and Maisie go hunting for Beta in a darkened area of the sanctuary while the power is off, and Owen tranqs Beta as she's charging at Grant.

*** The sequence where Claire, Zia, and Franklin are chased in a truck by enraged ceratopsians alludes to the second game where the player must evade a pair of pissed-off ''Triceratops'' via jeep, which itself seems to have been inspired by the first ''VideoGame/{{Jurassic Park|Arcade}}'' rail-shooting game.

* Soyana Santos commanding a pack of ''Atrociraptors'' will remind OG Jurassic Park fans who read the Topps comics of another character surnamed Santos--first name Rafael-- attempting to do the same with a trio of ''Velociraptors''.
