Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has a post-credits scene worth staying in your seat. In fact, the final scene supports the future of the franchise.

The latest dinosaur apocalyptic scenario of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom poses a scenario where dinosaurs are saved from a fictitious island with an active volcano. After the first four absolute cluster-f***s, one might think, “Hey, let’em die.” Thankfully for the franchise, but not for future victims, Owen Grady and Claire Dearing are on the job. What happens after the movie is the key to the franchise’s future.

Do not read past this point if you haven’t seen the movie. Spoilers below!

So what does the post-credit scene reveal?

As far as the Jurassic Park franchise goes, it’s always been humans on dinosaur land. Pretty easy concept to repeat. The end of Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom, however, flips this concept a full 180. After countless Jeff Goldblum expressions of disbelief, as if he hasn’t experienced dinosaur catastrophes over and over, the dinosaurs are about to enter a more urban environment.

This should not come as a surprise. Monsters breaching the sanctuary of dense population is the reason fear strikes the hearts of those who have watched films like The Mist (not the TV series) and Pacific Rim. Encroachment into human civilization is the entire foundation for killing giant, monsters in films like Godzilla, and Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

What happens in Vegas…

As the saying goes, “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.” The post-credit scene may change that a bit. The scene begins with a flock of pterosaurs circling a radio tower. As the camera pans out, it’s clear the pterosaurs are about to hit the slots with Nick Papagiorgio in Las Vegas, and that radio tower is the pseudo-Eiffel Tower (thank goodness it wasn’t the Statue of Liberty replica).

Nobody knows the plot as of yet, but I have an Indecent Proposal. The opening scene should show the winged demons flying straight to the Stardust hotel to put Nomi out of her rhythmless, pool-gyrating Showgirls misery. At least one pterosaur should subsequently fly to the Tangiers and avenge Sam “Ace” Rothstein by taking out anyone still employed at the casino. Finally, before the dinosaurs can kill everyone, get the Rain Man to strategize with the boys from Ocean’s 11 to deduce an attack plan to reclaim the Las Vegas night.

Next: Creatures already walk the cities...in real life!

There you have it. Jurassic Park is going to now explore the neighborhood. Expect the citizens of Las Vegas to introduce the pterosaurs to the 2nd Amendment. What do you think should happen when dinosaurs hit the Las Vegas strip?
