At this point, it's clear that Jurassic World is a success. The movie has seen both critical and commercial success, and while many claim that it's far from the smartest movie of the summer, Jurassic World has still managed to become one of the season's most entertaining movies.
You'd be forgiven for assuming that all is well with Jurassic World - but according to the Internet, that's far from the truth.
So, what's wrong with Jurassic World? Is it the movie's supposedly dated portrayal of female characters? Is it the over-reliance on CG animation? Is it just a bad popcorn flick? Well, according to the Internet, it's none of those things - the real issue with the film is the shorthand name used for one of dinosaurs. Apparently, the name used for one of the dinosaurs is actually a subtle way for the filmmakers to keep an entire group of the populace in check.
No, this isn't a joke ... or is it?
Between the bizarre mix of a stand-up comedian's psuedo-protests and the ire of Twitter, is Jurassic World actually in trouble?
The answer is a clear "no." While there's a good chance that the filmmakers may try to avoid using such a word in the future, the current controversy is the vocal minority - you may hear about people complaining more often than anything else, but that doesn't mean they represent the majority of the opinions out there.
Again, people have the right to be offended by something ... but it's probably best to look at the situation rationally before taking to the Internet.
Jurassic World is in theaters now.
