Hopefully this time we learn from our mistakes of the past and limit the number of velociraptors brought to life.

Maybe you wouldn't be saying that if you had a baby who was run over by a truck and an old guy told you about a pet semetary where you could bury him so he would come back to life.

I'll bet big game hunters are creaming themselves over this news. Well, and taxidermists.

Just make sure Newman isnt in charge of the computer systems and Jurassic Park would be a success

Or aybe he would. People might fall on various sides of that spectrum in such a case, and given the difficulty of the situation, it would be almost heartless to judge anyone's actions.

You've never watched Steven King's Pet Cemetery, have you?

May want to decide against bringing back those pesky T-Rexs while we are at it.

The T-Rex ends up being the Hero in the 1st one. With no T-Rex, that family dies.
Ponder that for a moment.

First I play with Judd, then Mommy came, and I play with Mommy. We play Daddy! We had a awfully good time! Now, I want to play with YOU!

FWIW:

Velociraptors weren't the badasses depicted in that movie. Real life, they were like 4 feet tall. Deinonychus were about 6 feet. Utahraptors were full of win.

Just when I thought you couldn't possibly be any dumber (Pet Cemetary reference), you go and do something like this.......and totally redeem yourself!
(^Umm, just to be sure you get it, I just quoted Dumb and Dumber there^)
Imagine the disappointment of my children when we went to Dinosaur World last year and they saw that the velociraptors were really just pre-historic chickens (feathers and all...just slightly taller).

Maybe you could just, um, you know.....NOT go to where the dinosaurs are cloned?
