Watched this tonight... hated it.
Very sorry to hear that.
I saw it today and I loved it.

That was actually the Stygimoloch But yeah it is a pachycephalosaurid.
Had a couple of questions:
1). Dr. Malcolm's testimony to the UN committee at the beginning and end of the film...I assume this was one testimony? Or was he called back for a second meeting? Just seemed weird that initially they had called upon him to get his opinion on whether to save the dinos or not, and then at the end it seems like he's talking about the end events of the movie, which obviously had not happened yet at the beginning of the meeting.
I'm gonna be that guy who points out that Stygimoloch is probably just the adolescent growth stage of Pachycephalosaurus per a bunch of well-supported studies that came out in the first half of the 2010s, so you'd be more accurate in referring to it by the latter name.
If I recall correctly, it was probably just a single testimony. Dr. Malcolm was pretty much prophesying throughout his speech and was speaking as though the effects of "unleashing genetic power" was already set to somehow upend society, if not just being hypothetical.

I did too glad you enjoyed it man.
I liked the movie for most part but I thought the third act inside the Mansion building should have been shorter and written better.
Which mansion parts should of been shorter and how would it of been better written?

I think all the hate the movie and Jurassic World now get are weird. Far from perfect world, but I think they are solid new installments and superior to the first two sequels.
I think Fallen Kingdom did do some new stuff that worked.
Also don't like that they broke off Claire and Owen only to have them back together by the end.
I hate it when sequels do that. Hate it. It's so lazy.
One thing I do give Fallen Kingdom credit for is addressing human cloning. The franchise has never really addressed that before. I mean, if you can genetically clone dinosaurs, creating a human clone isn't much of a stretch.
That's hardly a rehash of anything the franchise has done before.
Jurassic World even started with them having been together and split up.
They addressed it stupidly, though. It felt shoehorned in and only served as motivation for that stupid decision at the end.
