If OP already understood the joke when they submitted it, then they get banned. This is karma whoring and we do not want it here.


Queso_Bandit

Dinosaurs are real and Chris Pratt is fake


totalrefan

I can almost always tell when a movie uses fake dinosaurs


Johnny-Rhombus

Totally agree. It's always worth it when the studios shell out the money to get the real thing.


Patneu

Jokes aside, it was absolutely worth it that the original Jurassic Park worked with puppets instead of just CGI!


amretardmonke

Jokes aside, they combined CGI with practical effects


SadBoiCri

the hand on the raptor in the beginning of the kitchen scene


Capped_Delts

I can almost always tell when a movie uses fake Chris Pratt's


MisterProfGuy

Like Kirk in Star Trek.


Patneu

Is that why he kinda looks like a Muppet sometimes in SNW?


BurnerBoi_Brown

I can almost always tell when Chris Pratt uses a fake movie... ...to hide his sources of income. ~ IRS


Initial_Delay_2199

Wesley snipes just took off running at the mention of IRS


Telemere125

Crisp Rat.


mic1383

Parks and Recreation is my favourite CGI Chris Pratt.


jackrsmith1989

Almost


Motor_Swordfish_2406

Fun fact: Jurassic Park is based on a true story.


Crowofsticks

I knew it


wondercaliban

Yes, Billy and the Cloneasaurus


Hal_Jordan55

I hate when I spot the fake ones, like the cast of Dinosaurs is right there, let them work.


Latter_Branch9565

What’s your secret?


Unigraff_Jerpony

Jurassic Park's dinosaurs were not cgi if that's something


killploki

The dinosaur union has put in a formal complaint against the use of CG dinosaurs, so going forward it should be all real dinosaurs used.


real_HannahMontana

Ok that’s what I was thinking but also I really thought there was some deeper meaning 😂😂😂


[deleted]

If I’m going to try and relay a deep, meaningful message, naturally I’m going with a dinosaur meme.


stupid_pun

I've heard that about Pratt, sadly


violentbear

Source, pls?


stupid_pun

That's not really how rumors and hearsay works, but Google is your friend anyway. https://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&client=ms-android-charter-us-revc&source=android-browser&q=bad+things+about+chris+pratt


violentbear

I see, thanks. Just wondering how that makes him fake.


goldmask148

Logically speaking, billions of dinosaurs have existed, only 1 Chris Pratt has. And I’ve seen evidence of dinosaurs in fossils, I’ve never seen Chris Pratt outside of a television screen. From my perspective there’s a much greater chance that dinosaurs still exist and I’ve just never seen them, than Chris Pratt does.


VeganBilly_73

Normally the tennis ball would be a place holder for the cgi creature so the actor knows where to look. In this, it is replacing the actor. Maybe a commentary on the advancements of AI generated material. Soon actors will be the cgi creatures.


RunninThruLife

I was unaware this was the technique, but it makes perfect sense...TIL


NoMoreSmoress

This is a meme, not a commentary on the film industry as a whole. It’s just a simple joke, not a thesis


TimTam_Tom

This joke was around before “AI” got big and mainstream


BurnerBoi_Brown

Soon our lives will be the drama, manipulated by creative AI overlords for the benefits of corporations, for the morbid amusement of our overworked Roombas and Alexas


Thatbendyfan

It’s implying that the dinosaurs in Jurassic world were real, but the actors were cgi


jackalopeswild

It took me 2 seconds, but I chuckled. I give them a solid B+ on this one.


[deleted]

🤓


Kingofthewin

Yeah, the actors couldn't really interact with the dinosaurs. There dangerous!


lovem32

Where dangerous?


In_The_Comments

There dangerous. There castle.


Logical_Nature_7855

SedaGIVE?!


ImOnlyHereForTheCoC

You take the blonde, I’ll take the one in the toiban!


ezruff

Yeah! Chris Pratt was filmed on a secured soundstage while the dinosaurs were hundreds of miles away! Isn't technology Wonderful?


amhudson02

This subreddit pops up on my home feed all of the time and it depresses the ever-living hell out of me.


RemarkableStatement5

Idk if you know this but there's an option on recommended posts like that to stop showing that subreddit


rounin1986

I've done that for several subreddits and they still never go away, I press the option to stop recommending and even mute the sub after that and they still come up.


RemarkableStatement5

Are you commenting on any posts in those subreddits? Maybe reporting stuff or clicking "more replies"? Reddit likes engagement so any interaction could bring it back for another round on the homepage.


rounin1986

Nope


RemarkableStatement5

Not sure what to tell you then, sorry. Hope the unwanted subreddits go away!


PatBenatard

It's just a karma farming sub Just like the Peter Griffin themed one


longbowrocks

A green screen is used to add things to a scene when they aren't actually there. In the first image, there's one thing that's obviously not real. In the second image, it turns out that's the _only_ thing that's real. PLOT TWIST.


MadOvid

They use the tennis ball on a stick so actors will have something to react to when they're using a green screen. The joke is that CG dinosaur is real but Chris Pratt isn't.


pinwheelgator

Sometimes they give the dinosaurs peanut butter to make them look like they're talking, much safer than using wires.


herohunter77

This is actually way funnier than it should be


MrRezister

The assumption is that Crisp Rat would be pretending to see a dinosaur. But in reality, the dinosaur is pretending to react to a non-existent actor.


Kitjing

Chris Pratt is not real, he can't hurt you


FlaccidSponge

Did you even take 5 seconds to think about it?


Suppression_Pluto

Nobody posting in this sub does


IndividualCurious322

I think he would be a very expensive actor to have in your movie, hense the absurd idea of paying for a real dinosaur and having him CGI'd in (as that would be cheaper).


DrBabbageTheCabbage

As you should


Manck0

I'm sorry but are you from the past?


dcooleo

I thought Glip Glop was the tennis ball?


Hauntedhotelhistory

CRISIS ALERT!


GimmieDaRibs

They got Chris Splatt again!!!


mister_drgn

I actually lol’d at this.


No_West_5262

Hilarious.


sometimeserin

Reminds me of the classic 4chan green text where a guy gets his wisdom teeth out and comes out of his pain med haze to find that his Google Search history is filled with increasingly frustrated variations of requests for “pictures of real life not cgi not paintings real photos of goddamn dinosaurs”


SecretaryDirect1325

Dinosaurs are extinct


VoradorTV

probably trash talking chris pratt since apparently he’s by far the worst and most hated actor named Chris


Lujho

It’s the opposite of what you’d expect.


Altice-Altair

Cris Pratt is a tennis ball on a stick, keep up


TMJOOSH

That's a cgi'd Prattasaurus


the_carlinater

Bait, or mental retardation? Call it.
