Reading the Making Of book from a couple years back and listening to production stories from various crew on the Jurassic Time YouTube channel, it sounds like Koepp had significantly less impact on the brilliance of the original film than one might think. Which makes sense when you look at the rest of his resume. He's done okay work here and there otherwise. If Colin Trevorrow is involved in any capacity, though, there's just no hope.

Aside from a single velociraptor who responds to a specific person they’re all pretty wild and untamed. https://youtu.be/tfEs2g4ReXQ?si=wEvLO1nnrVhDcyNa If a movie ruined an entire noun for you, I think that’s a “you” problem, not the movie’s problem.

Also no they didnt just make the raptor a hero, they made the t-rex into a hero, and that weird freddy kreugar thing a hero. I was okay with the schlock in the first JW because it was like, hah, that's funny. But they just kept pushing it. They were cooler as just animals. Maybe the T-Rex might show up at the end to take on the raptors, but she wasn't a hero.

While I did enjoy all 3 JW movies, I do agree that it’s better to not make the dinosaurs heroes (although the first JP movie kinda does it a bit). In my Jurassic Park sequel idea I was floating around a decade ago, there were no “hero” dinosaurs. Edit— well it happens a little at the end, but it’s no more egregious than the first JP movie’s ending. Xenomrph fucked around with this message at 03:52 on Jan 23, 2024 |

Is there anything to the rumours that they were going to make a JP miniseries based on the original novel? I’m tired of those Jurassic Trash, give me a 1980’s JP

That idea sounds really bad. I like the idea of a reboot that sticks to the novel, though. The scene with Wu being eaten alive haunted me as a kid.

gently caress it. Pull a Terminator Dark Fate and make it a direct sequel to the Lost World. Let's get stupid.

Not sure where else to post this, but I've discovered something interesting I can't find mention of anywhere else online. See, I was reading through the initial 6 issue miniseries of Budd Root's Cavewoman comic from the early 90s, and it kind of seems like Jurassic World lifted the concept of the Gyrospheres directly from it?   Now obviously the concept of a vehicle shaped like a big sphere you roll around in has cropped up in pop culture before this, but "A little rolling ball-car made of transparent glass you ride around in to protect yourself from dinosaurs" is just such a specific idea I can't see this being anything but a direct reference on the movie's part?

It wouldn't be good, but it would piss so many people off. Combine Timeline and JP. Actually that's just A Sound of Thunder, a hilarious wreck of a movie. Combining The Great Train Robbery and JP... now we're cooking with gas. Or Jurassic Park: Congo.

The current rumor is that the new film is a prequel based on the islands before the Park is built and that just sounds loving exhausting to me.

Are they going to cover that little cloned elephant that Hammond made?

Some of the inter-employee drama as the park was being set up, some other investors checking out the park and things screw up (but not to the degree of the movie), some other dinosaur incidents, etc. There’s also a (fan fiction?) prequel novel on Amazon that covers the other islands and what Ingen was doing with them, it’d be pretty funny if the new movie cribbed from it. I have the prequel novel on my kindle but I’m only about 15% of the way into it. The writing quality isn’t the best but I’ve read worse, but it’s a pretty lengthy book.

As a fan of the books, I can see the concept working if they leverage some of Crichton's unadapted ideas. If they included the cut storyline from the book about dinosaurs getting off of the island onto the Costa Rican mainland, that might be enough to justify it. Have some scientists raise concerns about animals escaping, have Wu dismiss it, pull Malcolm's "the system is looking to confirm a number of animals rather than tracking the actual number of animals" bit from thr book and give it to that scientist, they go rogue, have most of the action take place on the mainland trying to contain the issue, end with them successfully covering it up. Or even show an active Site B where they have to transfer animals to Nublar, with poo poo going wrong with the prion disease, forcing them to release the animals into the wild. And that going extremely poorly. The Telltale side-quel game worked well in telling another story during the same timeframe. It's a bit creatively bankrupt, but I'm not opposed to it. It's one way to avoid all the lovely World baggage. feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 20:33 on Mar 7, 2024 |

The upcoming JP Survival first person game is going to be a movie side-quel like the Telltale game, and a couple of the Topps comics were similarly set just before and then during the events of the movie.

What could even go wrong in a prequel. The first film starts with a worker losing an arm and the massive shitshow that is for Ingen as they try to stop investors pulling out. That’s clearly the worst thing that’s happened up to that point which is pretty decent going for dinosaur island.

We follow the team setting up Jurassic Park with jumpscares as health and safety violations are committed left and right due to bringing in cheap labour who aren’t given adequate training. The climax of the film is the worker who lost his arm receiving a much justified payout.

I probably said it before but I’d watch the hell out of a Jurassic World prequel story about the day to day runnings of the park and how many near misses (or actual incidents that involved NDAs and people being paid off) it experienced until everything went off the rails in the movie. Chris Pratt is expensive, but just don’t include his character, set it during a timeframe when he hasn’t been hired yet. I bet Bryce Dallas Howard and BD Wong would be game.

Gennaro posted:You're telling me that we're facing a $20 million lawsuit from the family of that worker and Hammond couldn't even be bothered to see me? Speaking of this scene, I loving love that ends by setting up Alan Grant with a weirdly foreboding musical sting and this line... ROstagno posted:Because he's like me. He's a digger. It's such a great moment that sets-up this guy who digs around in the dirt as an admirable figure and it contrast beautifully with Jurassic World where the main protagonist is a former Navy Seal.

If anyone here is interested in roleplaying games, or really just Jurassic Park lore, I made a pretty extensive and elaborate tabletop roleplaying game called Jurassic Park: Edge of Chaos that I just put up on itch.io. I think it's just as much fun as a lore compendium as it is a game. Much like the Telltale game, it takes place during the events of the first movie and acts as a player-driven remix of the events of June 11, 1993. Lemme know if self-promotion like this is gauche (didn't see anything in the rules) and I can edit, but it seems like it might be right up some of y'all's alley.

To this day I don't know if I love or hate that the Indoraptor from Fallen Kingdom visibly smiles, takes glee in killing people, sharpens it's claws before a kill and acting like Nosferatu.

When it smirked at the camera before attacking Ted Levine I turned to my wife and whispered "this thing's gonna talk before the end of the movie". I'm still kind of shocked it didn't, or at least that they did some weird "it has human DNA!" reveal to explain why it was such a theatrical little guy.

That reveal was so odd, because it was so obviously the original twist in Jurassic World with the I-Rex that reusing it in Dominion felt like course correction. It's then even weirder that the third film drops this storyline entirely.
