...to have been inspired by the movie Jurrasic World: Fallen Kingdom to want to be veggie and eventually vegan? ***SPOILERS***

I watched this last night and I found it really emotional! At the end, when the little girl says "because they're alive, like I am" omfg.

Maybe I'm losing my tiny mind, but it has really made me want to try going veggie and maybe vegan eventually.

The saddest moment in all of the JP films is easily in the second film, when the bad guys have kidnapped and injured the baby t-Rex, tied him up with ropes and then dumped him in the middle of nowhere. When it shows the little baby all hurt and trapped, and making that little crying noise because he’s scared and wants his mom.... it’s just too sad Sad

Also, Nature Finds A Way. Always.

Jeff Goldblum makes an appearance in this one too. Does anyone else think he is quite attractive?

Yes, I might do pescatarian first then, but very low on fish, (I don't really like it. Or, I'm very fussy about it. So this should be easy enough not to overdo).

@RufustheRowlingReindeer, what did you eat on christmas day? Just the veg?

@QueenofmyPrinces, the second one is the only one I haven't seen! I think I might have read the book? Is there a book?? That sounds horrible. Poor baby anamatronic t-rex! I know they aren't real, but the stories are perfectly realistic...just with other animals.

Jeff G is sex on a stick in the first one, lounging about with a torn shirt all sweaty . He had me at Chaos Theory, frankly.

LadyPrigsbottom · 18/07/2020 20:14

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I know! Chaos theory . What is it about rock star mathematicians?

Go for it. There are really so many good reasons, but for me not wanting to be responsible for death and suffering is top of the list. I don't see meat etc. as food anymore.

I only fancy him as Andy Dwyer or Emmet Brickowski.

Chris Pratt is undeniably handsome, but he's no Jeff Goldblum!

Fair enough! Tbh, since the food had already been bought and your portion taken into account, that makes sense.

It was chicken lady

QueenofmyPrinces · 18/07/2020 20:34

Jeff and Chris are sexy in very different ways.... but if I had to chose one, I would have to go for Jeff.

Did anyone see him in The Fly when he’s turning into a fly and does all those amazing gymnastics!!! Is that his real body or is it a stunt double? (I hope it is him!!)

How greedy. Are you a velociraptor? Hmm
LadyPrigsbottom · 18/07/2020 20:38

queen, yes, I remember watching The Fly when I was a teenager and thought he was really attractive in it. Now, when I try to remember the movie though, all I can remember is him arm wrestling someone and snapping off their arm..? I also saw a sequel and there was also a really sad, animal scene in that, with a dog. Is Jeff Goodblum veggie? I'm sure he's an animal lover, as well as an ace mathematician and all round great guy .

There is only one way to find out... @RufustheRowlingReindeer, could you please make a sound like a horny turtle for us? Then we will know.

I’ll lend them out...I’ll need the rest

I don’t think im a velociraptor...they are cunning and quick

I’ll be a big lumbering slightly confused, pissed Off one...so probably t rex

RufustheRowlingReindeer · 18/07/2020 20:44

I actually have a horny tortoise

He is in bed now....and i really don’t think he makes that kind of noise 😳
