Bayona's 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' opens, we learn that the impending volcanic eruption will soon render Isla Nublar uninhabitable for the dinosaurs there, with the United States Senate deciding it would be a waste of money to try to save them (surprise surprise). It's the end of an era, with the dinosaurs from the 'Jurassic Park' movies leaving the island jungle setting from the first four films for good and all. I'll confess: My eyes weren't entirely dry either. With its life slowly being snuffed out, the sad and terrified beast rears on its hind legs and lets out one last, desperate call.Īll of this is seen by our heroes as they can do nothing but watch helplessly with tears in their eyes.

As the clouds and flames overtake it, we see its body gradually lose focus and become a silhouette. While many other dinosaurs have been saved, this one has been abandoned to die, and on some visceral level it seems to know it. Our main characters have just escaped from Isla Nublar, the home of the dinosaurs from the 'Jurassic Park' movies, as it is slowly consumed by the hot lava and ash clouds from an erupting volcano. When they look back to the shore, a lone brontosaurus can be seen bellowing for help.

There is one scene from 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' that was so heart-wrenchingly beautiful, it almost seemed out of place in a summer blockbuster.
