Man with those Pterosaurs getting out and killing that whole crowd of people I'm starting to get the idea by the end of the movie that the park will get immediately closed and dismantled by the government and then creating dinosaurs will be made illegal. :smith:

If they're using a CG dino for that scene, well that would entirely explain it. The kids in JP1 were extremely convincing with their screams, because well, the dino was a life size loving T-rex anamatronic robot, and they weren't told beforehand that it was going to totally bust through the moonroof, so they were legitimately freaked.

Is that true? That sounds both extremely dickish and unsafe.

Super cg-lookin' dino bustin' through a wack-rear end glass prison just like in the first movie. Don't compete with Spielberg's directing because it'll just look cheap and wack in comparison. Why come all these dinos gotta look so fake?

If anyone is dreaming it's Alan.



Also, that Pterodactyl attack seems like it is going to be a much more interesting and scary scene than the one we got in III.

The raptor communication bone thing was a 3d-printed mold from a Real Dinosaur's skull. If anything, the reaction in JP3 was confusion that the sound kinda-sorta-maybe sounded like a call more than anything.

But if said raptors were trained from birth to respond to a human talking, you could just train using your own voice/hand signals.

Super Bowl spot makes me wonder how many on-screen "innocent" deaths we might see. It's one thing to have staff employees (JP1), contracted paramilitary (JP2), or small-time guns for hire (JP3) bite it but regular park attendees, families, etc? I doubt we'll see much but the implications are pretty dark.

Also, with the new Rex, there will undoubtedly be a clash against the T-Rex. It has to happen. Just bring in Dr. Serizawa to say "let them fight." As the T-Rex slowly loses and backs itself toward the sea, the giant moasaur becomes the new deus ex machina and swallows the I-Rex whole.

Because like a lot of Jurassic Park III it was stupid and should be forgotten for being a horribly bland movie which I don't know how you do for a movie with goddamn dinosaurs in it, but there you go.

The line about "its hunting for sport" does make me hope that I was right earlier about the problem with the hybrid dinosaur being its going after the other dinosaurs as well. It would be the neatest way to do the concept, because then it isn't just man vs dinosaur, but monsters vs dinosaurs and man is trying to help the dinosaurs but they are still dinosaurs and might eat you.

Oh, so the I-Rex is also a Predator?

That's what jumped out to me about the trailer, too. The pterosaur carrying off a park-goer unsettled me more than anything else I've seen about the movie so far.

Site saying ankylosaurs in the gyrosphere area makes me agree that we're probably going to see gyrosphere golf.

The Lost World had that one dude get eaten by the T-Rex in San Diego. I hope all kinds of people get eaten by dinosaurs in this movie and that scene with the pterodactyls has all kinds of dinosaurs running in and out of buildings eating people forcing them to run out in the open to get eaten by pterodactyls. It's going to be fun.

I hope the I. rex gets its poo poo ruined by a Stegoceratops because it's about high time that the badass herbivorous dinos with sweet defensive adaptations got their day in the sun, and if they're making a magic T. rex/raptor love child then kill it with a super Stegosaurus/Triceratops power combo in a game of genetic calvinball.

I had the same reaction. But I imagine after the initial chaos of dino prison break most of the humans will be evacuated, leaving behind just Chris Pratt, raptor squad and annoying lost children in need of rescue.

Ugh, it looks so ugly and fake. Like wtf, why spend 200 million to make everything look like a cartoon. The whole reason Jurassic Park was cool is it felt like real dinosaurs running around chasing the actors.
This looks incredibly lame by comparison, I get major Kingdom of the Crystal Skull vibes off this. Bryce Dallas Howard with the flare is the only good shot that gives me any hope, and even that is just a re-tread of what we've seen.

What makes me most pessimistic about this film is the role and casting of the lead characters. Sam Neil, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum were scientists and a mathematician - basically, totally helpless against dinosaurs, which makes the dinosaurs a real threat. There's one cool hunter dude with a shotgun, but you see him briefly and they kill him off quickly so that only the helpless characters are left.

In World, we have Chris Pratt as buff man with a shotgun and horde of helper raptors, accompanied by a scientist, but don't worry, we made her the sexiest scientist ever to exist, literally sexier than any scientist who has ever actually lived on earth, so that you're not bored as an audience when she's on screen.

The film could still work if they essentially turn it into Predator - a tense hunter vs hunter scenario deep in the woods. On the other hand, Predator worked partly because of their isolation, and they're playing up the "tons of people everywhere" angle in the JW trailers.

The most memorable thing about the original JP is the terror. It was kind of a horror film for kids. This feels more like a light action movie, I don't know if it's going to sell the idea of there being danger to the main characters.

Is she a scientist? I thought she was basically the head of the park below the big CEO that bought ingen? Basically "sexy reboot Hammond"...

Pretty sure Williams used that in one of the sequels.

I'm also pretty sure that Bryce Dallas Howard is playing the park administrator or corporate exec, not a scientist as mentioned. In most other shots she is wearing a pretty formal corporate business outfit.

To be fair when I saw JP1 in the theaters (many, many times...) I totally thought Lorna Dern was the hottest thing in the world. Maybe I was weird.
