I have been in deep, deep debates with my friends over which of these behemoths, these killers are cooler. I believe the I-REX is MUCH cooler because it is big and is white. It looks cool and it has many capabilities that he gathered from dino DNA. Indoraptor is alright... but he is not as intimidating in my opinion. I think that because the Indoraptor is gray, it does not stand out as much. And the laser pointer-kill thing? That is such a scapegoat of a bad guy. The I-Rex, on the other hand, can camouflage and has BIG CLAWS and TEETH! The Indoraptor only has kind-of scary claws, but not scary teeth.. If the conversation was on who would win in a fight, I am not very sure. It would be very close. I-Rex has the size advantage, so if it were to us its strength, it could simply crush the Indorapter under him. The Indoraptor, on the flip side of things, is more nimble and quick-moving than the I-Rex. Using this advantage, the Indoraptor could theoretically take small bites, or pot-shots, out of the I-Rex until is dies. It we want to go one step further into the discussion, we can discuss whether or not the Indoraptor has the guy with the laser pointer with him. If the Indoraptor is getting commands from the laser pointer guy, they would probably out-tactic and easily disassemble I-Rex. Without a laser pointer, the Indoraptor would be at a more even level. The last thing we need to discuss before making a plausible conclusion, is sentience. If you remember from Jurassic World (2015), when the I-Rex escapes from it's enclosure, the security guards find the Dinosaurs tracker! The reason this is important is that after this reveal, they say that the I-Rex remembered where it was put in. This is enough evidence to assume sentience with the I-Rex. Now to the Indoraptor. The Indoraptor does not do anything on free will at all. It attacks targets that are assigned by a signal. Why would the corporation that created the Indoraptor give it free thought? You want a soldier that follows every command. Therefore I can deduce that the Indoraptor was designed without sentience in mind. A lifeless killer. This alone gives the I-Rex the upperhand, and dare I say, the victory. If this is the grounds we go to, by the matter of knowledge and confidence, I can confidently say that the I-Rex would win a fight against the Indoraptor.

My theory concerns the Velociraptor DNA used in the Indominus Rex. As we know, the Indominus Rex has Velociraptor DNA to communicate with them. Many fans believe that the Velociraptor DNA used for the Indominus is from the Raptor Squad of Jurassic World, but this is impossible since both the Indominus Rex and the Raptor Squad were born in 2012. So, which Velociraptor did they use for the Indominus Rex? Well, I think I've found the answer: the Velociraptors from JP3.

Masrani initially wanted to use the Velociraptors seen in JP3 for his Jurassic World, but they were too dangerous for the park. However, according to my theory, the scientists took only the DNA from these Velociraptors or their eggs and used it to create the Indominus and the Raptor Squad. This would explain why the Indominus has many traits reminiscent of the Jurassic Park 3 Velociraptors, such as the red eyes, the protofeathers, and even the white color of the alpha. (Although, the aggressiveness of the Indominus Rex seems to resemble that of the Velociraptors from the first two films; perhaps they took DNA from the Velociraptor skeletons found in the 1993 Visitors Center.)

Furthermore, if the Indominus Rex's sibling was indeed black, then there could have been a secret black Velociraptor on Isla Sorna that lived during the events of JP3. Also, in my opinion, during the expedition to Isla Sorna, the scientists took DNA from a green Carnotaurus (canonical in the novels and also in the saga, thanks to Jurassic World: Chaos Theory). This would explain not only the Carnotaurus DNA in the Indominus but also its camouflage ability.

Returning to the Raptor Squad, perhaps they also have the DNA of the Jurassic Park 3 Raptors. Not only does Blue's blue stripe resemble that of the male Raptor from JP3, but also two members of the Raptor Squad (I don't remember which ones) seem to have the skull shape of the JP3 Velociraptors. It's impossible for the Raptor Squad's DNA to be part of the Indominus, as the I-Rex would have inherited some of their characteristics (like Blue's blue stripe, which the Indoraptor inherited). What do you think of this theory?

Even after watching Jurassic World more than once, I still find myself wondering: What exactly did the Indominus Rex communicate to the raptors that made them suddenly turn against Owen?

I can’t help but ask: what really happened in that exchange?
