I've seen this argument enough to immediately tell from the context that he means Mad Max from Fury Road, despite the fact that I still haven't managed to see the movie.
Might have been accidentally cross-posted.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.
I kept expecting a dance-off.
Also, In-Universe, I have to question the sanity of the parents. Divorce pending or not, you are still sending your kids to Jurassic Park. They couldn't have come up with someplace safer?
Ok, who let Light Yagami in here?
Quill and the Guardians versus Owen and the Raptor Squad? See if Charlie can outfunk Groot?
On a separate note, my younger brother insists that it's explicitly said in the movie that the I. rex ate her sister soon after hatching. I don't remember any such statements in said movie; do any of you do?

Jurassic World has proven to have a much better safety record than Jurassic Park. It's been open to the public for years without any reputation-ruining incidents, unlike the Park which suffered a catastrophic failure with a huge body count before it even opened to the public. It's only after they had InGen make a Frankenstein's Monster-ish dinosaurian creature to serve as their newest attraction that things were doomed to go downhill at some point, which happened when the I. rex tricked everyone into believing that it had somehow climbed out of its paddock, hoping that somehow it would lead to the gate being opened so that it could bolt out through it (it did work, though I doubt I. rex knew exactly how the whole thing would unfold).

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.Not soon after hatching.
The two were raised separately but when it became clear that I Rex was growing up to be a wee bit maladjusted, they put the sisters together
It was not a good idea.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersSo... A few months or years later?
EDIT: And the wiki is claiming that the cannabilism happened before/soon after hatching (yeah, both versions are claimed to be what happened in the same article, and not in the sense of "there are conflicting in-universe accounts").

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.The part when the pterosaurs attacked the tourists made me think of the flying monkeys in The Wizard of Oz. ^_^;;
Come on! Let's bless them all until we get fershnickered!Going by what was said in the movie, Jurassic World's biggest safety concerns were heat strokes and the pachies breaking out of their area, which was treated as more of a regularly scheduled nuisance than a threat. The bigger issue is the ignored lack of proper evacuation plan. Even without Indy going crazy, there still should have been a proper evacuation plan for things like a hurricane or Rexie breaking loose, however unlikely that could have been.
And that really doesn't seem like something Masrani would have overlooked for so long, so I'm hoping there is a decent in-universe explanation for it.
My guess is that they did have an evacuation plan for hurricanes and such natural disasters... but it depended heavily on forewarning by advanced meteorological technology that wasn't available to InGen 20 years ago.
As for Rexie breaking loose... Well, I don't think that was a concern given the gigantic doors and walls of the paddock. Seems to me that they really took Hammond's "spare no expense" catchphrase literally when they designed Rexie's containment.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.How long is "long-term"? An advance warning of a few days is feasible in the US in modern times, from what I know. Hurricanes do not suddenly form from nothing, you know; the cloud formations would be noticed by satellite footage as they are gathering miles away from the coastline, days before they approach the mainland.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.Wouldn't it have been easier to just throw the carpet in the river? Even though Malcolm might have just swum out of it.

... Max who?
