It's an attraction. They might have drugged him with super hormones to make it big as hell to impress visitors. Also, thanks for telling me about the new Jurasic Park trailler!

That makes me want to see that in a regular zoo movie, straight up. Like people walking through the zoo, and in the background presented without comment is an elephant that's 40 feet high at the shoulder. No one mentions it or anything, they just ooh and ahh at the kangaroos, of which one is 15 feet high. The dad brightly says "hormones!" It is a good time.

theironjef posted:The Mosasaurus is the Jurassic World trailer is way the goddamn hell too big. It's shown swallowing a big Great White whole which would make it easily around 100-110 feet long, and Mosasaurus topped out around 50-59. It'd be fine if the tone of the trailer wasn't Chris Pratt being surprised at engineering new dinosaur traits, since they clearly already have a giant terrifying adult one around he should have known about. Clearly, without any other predators and in a large enough enclosure they can grow to be bigger. Just like some animals grow bigger in captivity due to good feeding/conditions/etc.

I tell you what irrationally irritated me from that trailer: Female scientist: 'we made a genetically engineered hybrid dinosaur' Everyone else: 'oh holy gently caress wtf have you done?' Genetically engineered hybrid dinosaurs were the loving problem all along, morons, or have you forgotten that they could only reproduce because you crossed them with frogs? Or is this some sort of series reboot?

'Cash grab' is the stupidest loving criticism. OF COURSE THE STUDIO WANTS TO MAKE MONEY YOU loving MORON, AND SEQUELS MEAN YOU HAVE BUILT IN AUDIENCE RECOGNITION.

I hate to be "That guy" but the CGI looks really bad even compared to the original. I guess it's because the original knew how to hide it and when to use practical effects. This film clearly doesn't.

Seriously though, I'm not one of these people who bitches about CGI or smugs it up about how "you can always tell" but it gets used way too loving much. CGI fires are the worst, just buy some loving matches for christ's sake. Having said all that, I'll pay good money to see Chris Pratt as Muldoon.

There's always the chance they'll be upgrading the cgi. Remember the Guardians of the Galaxy trailers? They went from kinda detailed and semi poo poo CGI to pretty awesome.

This film clearly doesn't. A. It's a trailer far in advance of the movie's release. Of course the CGI looks bad. I wish they would stop doing this, of course, but these are multi-million dollar enterprises so I'm sure it must be worth it. B. (Not directed to the guy I quoted) It's directed by a basically untested indie film director (Colin Trevorrow) so I'm willing to give it a shot. They definitely didn't Bay it up.

This film clearly doesn't. The original had a 2-1 ratio of practical effects to CGI. I'm betting this one will be 95% CGI.

I always love the fact that the Blue Whale is the biggest creature to have ever existed on the planet as far as we can tell. Also Im pretty sure that predators have a reasonably set size limit based on their ability to actually catch enough things to not starve to death. Easy when you can just filter your food out of millions of litres of water.

I don't want to see the super badass dinosaur whale eat a regular whale, as it never existed. I don't want to see Batman, who also never existed, either.

How in the world did they get blood of an aquatic dinosaur from a mosquito? Hell, for that matter, the sheer variety of dinosaurs they have is absurd. A mosquito has to suck the dinosaurs blood, then, before it digests the blood, it has to land on some sap, AND get stuck in the sap, AND that particular bit of sap has to get turned into amber, AND then some miners have to find that one particular piece of amber.

DrBouvenstein posted:How in the world did they get blood of an aquatic dinosaur from a mosquito? The mosquito caught it while it was somehow rocketing roughly half of its ludicrously overscaled body up out of the water. Whatever thrust it takes to breach 100 tons of predator meat straight up 50 feet to eat a shark, that part also takes a while, so aggressive grapefruit-sized Jurrasic World style mosquitos can get in there.

After watching that trailer a few times, it actually doesn't look half bad. And when I said "cash grab", I didn't mean that I didn't understand that studios want to make money. It was more along the lines of "is this really necessary?" Like splitting the Hobbit into three films, for instance. Sometimes it's pretty blatant and, as a cynic, it turns me off right away. Same with too much product placement, toy tie ins and just...one...more...sequel. I can't believe there have been, what, 6 Fast and Furious movies and 4 Transformers ones?

It's honestly a really perfect cop-out to anybody who even attempts to  the stupidity in them."Oh that T-Rex pen is now over a cliff when a few minutes ago it was a dense thicket of trees? Well the dinosaurs are half-frogs so they're not 100% what dinosaurs would be like  "It also made me lol quite hard when the Jurassic World trailer made such a big deal out of this "NEW GENETIC SPECIMEN" as though that isn't what every single dinosaur in the park already technically was-- and that fact was a huge plot point in the original and why the single-gendered dinosaurs started to breed. It really bodes well for this cash-in remake that they were so up-front about how stupid they are even by the already loose and stupid standards of the original.

Pilchenstein posted:Yeah but the last two were loving amazing somehow. I am genuinely hyped for the seventh. Yeah somewhere along the line they stopped being just dumb car racing movies and turned into Vin Diesel & Friends commit elaborate heists and wreck sweet cars in the process. It's barely about the cars anymore. Jurassic World looks stupid. Raptor Buddies belongs in a different tone of movie, this one looks all typical monster flick "SCIENCE GONE MAD" then all of a sudden Chris Pratt is driving along with his friend raptors, it doesn't match up. Might just be how the trailer is edited and obviously the movie might deliver, but the trailer made me sad.
