It eludes to something Ive noticed in many movies.

I know the audience is surprised, as we cant see the TREX.

But WHY THE HELL do the characters act surprised? Clearly they would have notice & heard the massive dinosaur strolling into the building before it lunges at Raptor.

So many films have flaws like this, it's sad.

Well, it's obviously a camera trick, but I do think there is some sort of psychological explanation as well, like you only notice the closest impending doom.

From the film POV, it's not like they knew the T-Rex would save their lives. They could have seen both, thought they were fucked either way, but by attacking one, it bought them a few minutes while eating it.

It doesn't make much sense, true. Still my all-time favorite movie and an amazing scene.

Nice scene.

It's also impossible to have dinosaurs roaming a planet in 1993, but you seemed to have accepted that.

Also, they don't act surprised. A raptor was just heading for their faces, they were shit-scared and trying to get out of the way.

A human can move his/her eyes without needing to move their heads. I can forgive them for not moving their heads for the viewers acknowldegement as they were just about to be raptor food.

They turn in the very next shot looking at him, then to the other raptor which instead attacks the Raptor, then they run away. Someone needs to check it out in 3D
