Jurassic World quotes

View Quote "Monster is a relative term. To a canary, a cat is a monster. We're just used to being the cat"

View Quote "Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth."

View Quote Barry: [referring to the raptors and the Indominus] Something's wrong. They're communicating.
Owen: [Upon realization] I know why they didn't tell us what it's made of.
Barry: Why?
Owen: That thing's part raptor!

View Quote Claire Dearing: [noticing the Jurassic Park t-shirt Lowery is wearing] What is that?
Lowery Cruthers: Oh. I got off of eBay. Cost me $150, but the mint condition one was for $200, so, this was-
Claire Dearing: Don't you think that's in poor taste?
Lowery Cruthers: I know. It was terrible. I mean, I know a lot of people died, but, that first park was just legit, you know? They didn't rely on all these genetic hybrids. They had real dinosaurs.
Claire Dearing: Just don't wear it again.
Lowery Cruthers: Right. Okay, I won't.

View Quote Claire Dearing: Corporate felt genetic modification would up the "wow" factor.
Owen Grady: They're dinosaurs. "Wow" enough.
Claire Dearing: Not according to our focus groups. The Indominus Rex makes us relevant again.
Owen Grady: [chuckling] The "Indominus Rex"?
Claire Dearing: We needed something scary and easy to pronounce. You should hear a four-year-old try to say "Archaeornithomimus".
Owen Grady: ...You should hear you try to say it.

View Quote Claire Dearing: Think it'll scare the kids?
Simon Masrani: The kids? This will give the parents nightmares.
Claire Dearing: Is that... good?
Simon Masrani: That's fantastic. Can she see us?
Claire Dearing: They say it can sense thermal radiation, like snakes.
Simon Masrani: Say, I thought there were two of them?
Claire Dearing: There was a sibling, in case this one didn't survive infancy...
Simon Masrani: Where's the sibling?
Claire Dearing: She ate it.

View Quote Owen Grady: [after the Indominous rex slaughtered most of the unit that was sent to subdue it with non-lethal weaponry] Evacuate the island.
Claire Dearing: We'd never reopen.
Owen Grady: You made a genetic hybrid, raised it in captivity. She is seeing all of this for the first time. She does not even know what she is. She will kill everything that moves.
Simon Masrani: Do you think the animal is contemplating its own existence?
Owen Grady: She is learning where she fits in the food chain and I'm not sure you want her to figure that out. Now, Asset Containment can use live ammunition in an emergency situation. You have an M-134 in your armory. Put it on a chopper and smoke this thing!
Claire Dearing: (defensive) We have families here! I'm not gonna turn this place into some kind of a war zone!
Owen Grady: You already have.
Claire Dearing: Mr. Grady, if you're not gonna help, there's no reason for you to be in here.
(Owen, fed up with Claire's ridiculousness, knocks Lowery's toy dinosaurs off his desk. As he leaves, he stops to Masrani)
Owen Grady: I would have a word with your people in the lab. That thing out there, that's no dinosaur.
[Owen leaves. Claire looks at security footage on the screen]
Claire Dearing: Okay. I'm going to close everything north of the resort. This is a Phase One, real word. Bring everyone in.
Vivian: This is a Phase One, real world. I repeat, this is a Phase One. Bring everyone back in.

View Quote Owen Grady: Animals raised in isolation aren't always the most functional.
Claire Dearing: Your raptors are born in captivity.
Owen Grady: With siblings. They learn social skills. And I imprint on then when they're born. There's trust. The only positive relationship this animal has is with that crane. At least she knows that means food.
Claire Dearing: So she needs a friend. We should schedule playdates? That sort of thing?
Owen Grady: Probably not a good idea.

View Quote Owen Grady: Blue, stand down. Stand down.
[Blue snaps ferociously at Owen]
Owen Grady: Hey, Hey! What did I just say? Delta, I see you. Back up! OK, good. Good. Charlie, stay right there. Good. Close the gate.
Barry: Are you crazy?
Owen Grady: Just trust me.
Worker Leon: Close the gate!
[Barry closes the gate. Owen rolls under the gate just before it shuts]

View Quote Simon Masrani: The very existence of this park is predicated on our ability to handle incidents like this. It was an eventuality, okay?
Lowery Cruthers: You should put that in the brochure. "Eventually, one of these things will eat somebody."

View Quote Simon Masrani: Who authorized you to do this?
Henry Wu: You did. "Bigger", "Scarier"... "Cooler" I believe is the word that you used in your memo. You cannot have an animal with exaggerated predator features without the corresponding behavioral traits.
Simon Masrani: What you're doing here... what you have done... the board will shut down this park, seize your work, everything you've built. And Hammond won't be there to protect you this time.
Henry Wu: All of this exists because of me. If I don't innovate, somebody else will.
Simon Masrani: You are to cease all activities here immediately.
Henry Wu: You are acting like we are engaged in some kind of mad science. But we are doing what we have done from the beginning. Nothing in Jurassic World is natural. We have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And, if their genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
Simon Masrani: I never asked for a monster!
Henry Wu: "Monster" is a relative term. To a canary, a cat is a monster. We're just used to being the cat.

View Quote Vic Hoskins: Drones can't search tunnels and caves. And they're hackable. The minute a real war breaks out, all that fancy tech is going to go dark.
Owen Grady: But that tech's not going to eat them if they forget to feed it.

View Quote Vic Hoskins: The mother hen has finally arrived.
[Owen punches Vic; Zach and Gray react with shock]
Owen Grady: Get the hell out of here, and stay away from my animals.
Claire Dearing: Hoskins, you wanted this to happen, you son of a bitch!
Vic Hoskins: God! Jesus. How many more people have to die before this mission starts to make sense to you?

View Quote Vivian: Did you close the deal?
Claire Dearing: Looks like it. Verizon Wireless presents the Indominous Rex.
Lowery Cruthers: Ugh, that is so terrible. Why not just go the distance, and just let these corporations name the dinosaurs?

View Quote Zach Mitchell: You see? I told you. You're welcome. Up close and personal with four... dinosauruses.
Gray Mitchell: Ankylosaurus. We shouldn't be here. And there's five dinosaurs.
Zach Mitchell: Aren't you supposed to be a genius or something? Look. [pointing at the Ankylosaurus] One, two, three, four.
Gray Mitchell: [pointing nervously at the Indominus Rex's reflection on the gyrosphere glass] ...five...
