I've stumped for the first Jurassic World numerous times, but I'm not going to compare it to the first Park, which is a bonafide Spielberg classic, with problems that bother absolutely no one because it's the one film that captures the majesty, the magic and the menace of dinosaurs coming into our time.

The Lost World, however, is one of Spielberg's worst. It's good for a couple of minutes in the middle and about five minutes at the end. It also has scenes as boring as the dullest parts of World, and some of the silliest scenes of the entire franchise, like the gymnastics scene. Still not the silliest scene, because that goes to this moment in JP3, which is about all I remember from the film aside from the Pterodactyls, which was cool but done even better in Jurassic World and with the Quetzalcoatlus in Dominion.

It's when you include the sequels, as bad as World 2&3 are, they're more entertaining and rewatchable than Park 2&3

1. Park 1
2. World 1
3. World 3
4. World 2
5. Park 3
6. Park 2

My argument would be that the greatness of JP in comparison to JW makes up for any deficits in JP2-3 vs JW2-3, though I’m not sold on Lost World being worse than JW2, and simply don’t remember JP3.

I have not seen World 3 but have yet to hear anything positive.  But I will as it has become a morbid curiosity.  Just seems like what ever side Park 1 on is like having the Hulk on your team comparatively to the rest.  But I like your defence.
