Personally, I think one of the worst moves made in JP3 was splitting Alan and Ellie up.
In Jurassic Park, we see them pretty much together. The only problem is that Ellie wants children and Alan can't stand them. By the end of the movie, we can see that Grant has gotten past that. The scene at the end is very symbolic in that respect as it has Grant with the kids asleep on him, and the way he looks at Ellie confirms his changed attitude. The movie ended and we could safely assume that they would go on together.
Then we get to JP3. Ellie is married to another guy, has two kids, and Grant has become the family friend who drops by once in a while(or frequently, but we have no way of knowing that).
Now, yes, it's not really confirmed in JP that they're really together, but the signs are very strong.
Yeah, it would be kind of complicated to change it now, since Ellie's got 2 kids, but it could be done.
What do you think?

I really think that Alan and Ellie shouldn't rekindle their relationship. It seems that just about every movie tries to force some lame romantic subplot into the story these days, and I definitely don't want to see that happen in JPIV. Also, the less returning characters, the better.

No. She has a kid and a husband. Let her live her happy family life.
Of course, if they do try and get back together, the sure-fire remedy for that is to stick them on another dino-infested island. That always makes people fix family issues and relationship problems. Dr. Phil aint got nothing on Ingen and Jurassic Park.

Honestly, I really wouldn't. I liked how in the book there really was no love relationship and everything was solely professional. Though it was expected for Hollywood to put the two together, I was in fact glad JP3 split them apart. It shows that this is real life. A real life with dinosaur infested islands.
