The mean sequel stomps the crowded finale.
Who do you think should win?
The Verdict Franchise Civil War
Both films are the franchise overreaching, but one overreach is authored and the other is assembled. The Lost World is a single dark idea pursued past the point of comfort — Spielberg making the meanest movie in the series on purpose. Dominion is a committee emptying the closet: legacy cast, new cast, three villains, a plague of locusts, a globe-trot that abandons the island entirely. A lopsided result favors the authored excess. You can dislike The Lost World and still feel one mind driving it, where Dominion feels like a meeting that ran long and greenlit everything in the room.
