Should have Petrie died?

(1/2) > >>

LittleDas75:
We all know that Petrie manages to survive being dragged by the sharptooth into the lake. But would it have been more realistic and perhaps better if he died?
Sidenote: Yes I am aware that sharptooth let's go of Petrie before the boulder crushes him.

I don't think it would make the movie better.
Original LBT was pretty depressing and dark movie, but this scene would push it beyond all borders, considering context of the movie, and its aiming at kids audience.

Yeah, I hate the character, but killing him off seems excessive. Movie's dark enough

It probably would have been excessive.

Enchanted-Valley96:
Petrie doesn't deserve death. I quite like his broken English.
