Wow, not really looking forward to this film at all now.

Funny, all it took was then saying they made a hybrid dinosaur and I lost all interest.

The writers do know that dinosaurs are already somewhat scary right? They have a park full of scary monsters and they needed to create one more to have an antagonist? Would have preferred a retelling of JP1 with a new Nedry starting it.

 

[Pizza]

Looks rad, my childhood is hoping the monster dinosaur is the chameleon trex from the arcade game,you know the one

 

[Netprints]

I am actually looking forward to this. Looks great.

 

[shinobi602]

Believe I'm going to see the movie, but to act like this is an intelligent film is silly. It's a big loud fun movie about Dinosaurs wreaking havoc and eating people, also children in danger.

It's a good thing I never go to watch movies because they're 'intelligent.' I just want to have some fun.

 

[Ominym]

What about
JP1 = Love
Lost World = Despise
JP3 = Enjoyed somewhat?

Someone like you exists? Color me surprised!

 

[Kurdel]

Velociraptor is believed to have been an intelligent pack hunter. Who ever heard of humans taming an animal like that?

So who is leaning into what here?

The first scripts from JP4 had them mixing raptor and human DNA, won't be surprised to this be a twist in JW.

 

[ACESmkII]

Hmm looks like a Syfy channel blockbuster.

Okay. If this ever happens I will write this film off completely lol.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

This trailer still brought back those same feelings I had as a kid. That sense of wonder. Bryce Dallas Howard is pulling off that Jim Hammond vibe. And Ann Heche looked crazy hot in that opening.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

So other than Darth Sidious Rex and a requisite swimming scene with the Liopleurodon, what other antagonist animals will there be?



fake edit: oh man i just realized that there's a chance that superdevilsaurus either a) is shown or mentioned killing a spinosaurus or t rex to make it seem more badass, or b) the ending is jp1 mk2 with the rex coming in to kill it with a fanservicey roar afterward

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Was the original park in the northern "restricted area"? Would be sooooo cool if they go back there...

Spoiler

We already know we will see an old weathered Jeep at some point

Definitely hoping.

 

[Thug Waffle]

Was the whole movie green screened? It all looks so fake and fuzzy

yeah it doesn't look pretty. these kinda films can really only look any good for a couple years max

 

[strafer]

I'm kinda upset that we didn't get to hear some of Michael Giacchinos score.

It was just some generic trailer music.

 

[Jack Scofield]

It seemed more like Burt Macklin in the role than Chris Pratt.

 

[bananafactory]

It's a good thing I never go to watch movies because they're 'intelligent.' I just want to have some fun.

To clarify, I liked the trailer and think this looks good.

But I also don't think it's unreasonable to want a movie to be both intelligent and fun, there are plenty of those out there.

is man

 

[Ol No Bones]

I still think JP 1 has more convincing CG than most movies. I have never understood why that is but it really looks great. The blend of practical and CG effect was excellent as well. I watched it recently and was ver impressed.

 

[Jarmel]

Should have attached lasers to the dinosaurs instead.

 

[Cow Mengde]

And it dropped early because the thing was leaking like mad the last couple of days.

Yeah, totally not because Star Wars trailer will drown it out.

 

[Skinny Pete]

And yes Chris Pratt is known for his charm and being kind of goofy. I don't want him in a serious role. After second viewing I don't even want to see this now.

 

[shinobi602]

But I also don't think it's unreasonable to want a movie to be both intelligent and fun, there are plenty of those out there.

I agree, but just personally it's never really something I seek out. If it's both, great, all the better, I just don't have any problem with either/or I guess.

 

[Anton Sugar]

That's because they're ripped it straight from the first JP film.

Literally the only thing in common from that shot to this one is a flare. You're reaching.

The shot with the flair looks so familiar. Something 80s, something sci fi.

Maybe I'm combining the old 1984 Apple commercial with Aliens or something, but it looked really familiar.

I agree--it has a very sci-fi feel. I was thinking Alien/Aliens, too.

I'm hoping for a crazy first 2/3 and a more measured/terrorized final act.

nightmare fuel

looks like some shit from DOOM.

 

[brandonh83]

This trailer still brought back those same feelings I had as a kid. That sense of wonder.

Yep. Seeing the kid starting at the airport and going to the island on the boat and making his way through the crowd before the gate opens was fantastic. He's our eyes at least during this section and it worked wonderfully. And the shot of the kayaks in the river and the stegos on the side gave me that feeling as well.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

The park has been running fine for 10 years. Obviously they learned from their mistakes, as Hammond would say.

Nah, it's a sequel, where the park was bought by a large corporations, and has been running smoothly for 10 years.

Ah, nice, thanks. I can see them getting cocky/greedy then.

 

[Hale-XF11]

Eh, the whole concept of dinosaurs escaping and attacking people feels played out. This movie just seems to offer more of the same.

 

[jmdajr]

Even Steven Spielberg couldn't make a good sequel to Jurassic Park. We'll see how this one turns out. BTW, I expect the dinosaur CGI to look better than it did in 1993. The trailer does not meet that expectation.

Probably just an issue of stretching that 150 million budget too far now that you have to do the whole park. Plus, you can tell this isn't meant to be a serious movie so I'm thinking Oscar winning special effects wasn't even a priority.

Universal-"Lets make a fun movie for kids with star lord!" I'm 100% sure it will be that at least. Adults may be out of luck depending on their mood though.

Folks wanted more like 1 but instead are getting more of 2 on steroids.

Personally I had zero expectations. Surprised this even got made.

 

[Ol No Bones]

I'm kinda upset that we didn't get to hear some of Michael Giacchinos score.

It was just some generic trailer music.

Had no idea he was doing the soundtrack. I have way more faith in the music now. The trailer music made me very worried.

 

[Lashley]

Why was Pratt doing a weird voice in the trailer? It was as if he was over acting. Not hyped at all tbh.

 

[lawlohwhat]

Looks bad. No magic.

 

[Ragnarsson]

The movie may turn out to be good... but this trailer left me unimpressed. Everything looks lifeless.

 

[Superflat]

To clarify, I liked the trailer and think this looks good.

But I also don't think it's unreasonable to want a movie to be both intelligent and fun, there are plenty of those out there.

I don't expect this movie to BE intelligent, but I want more than anything else to be intelligently made as a film. That means good direction, well established characters and motivations; maybe even a good message about controlling nature.

Even I know that this is a tall order considering how JP3 turned out, but until the film is out, I'll probably have some hope lol

 

[Dany]

Doesn't look good. Meh

 

[Jacobi]

The trailer doesn't do anything for me... The effects still looks horrible... The story sounds horrible and the characters suck as well. (whoa, rebellious teen and a kid, the writers really outdid themselves)

 

[SquiddyCracker]

But in real life, males are the ones with extravagant feather designs.

Fuck this unscientific bullshit of a movie. It's not better than creationist trying to spread their stupid ass beliefs.

Not watching it even if it was free.

The dinosaurs are genetically engineered to conform to the public's perception of what dinosaurs are supposed to look like. It's a plot point in the books, where a scientist tells Hammond that they can still improve on the accuracy of the Dinosaurs historical looks, but Hammond says that this is what dinosaurs are supposed to look like.

That's why they don't have feathers, they aren't 100% identical to their genetic source material and tweaked to just look "good enough."

Seriously people, read the books. It is well within the intentions of the author to have the Jurassic Park people to push the boundaries, all in the name of making more bucks out of a public who always want to see the next big thing. They are playing God in the name of capitalism, and what better way of playing God than to create a whole, new dinosaur in order to draw in even more ticket payers?

 

[yodandy]

What is this dude holding in the trailer? What is on his left hand?

 

[shinobi602]

Yeah, totally not because Star Wars trailer will drown it out.

It's not like it's unprecedented. Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer was released early because it leaked as well.

 

[Jarmel]

I will straight up walk out of the fucking theater if I see that dogshit.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Giant turkey leg.

 

[Soma]

Chris Pratt on a motorcycle alongside a pack of Raptors into battle?

That...

that's... just stupid and awesome enough for me to get hyped lmao.

 

[flyinpiranha]

Looks awesome!

And Chris Pratt over-exposure? A TV series that ended, one movie he's 'in' and one voice ... for all of 2014. That's not really 'over-exposure' IMO. But whatever, I dig the guy.

Ha, linked my GF on IM and she answered "Chris Pratt strikes me as someone who would be soooo excited to be in Jurrasic Park".

I picture this face:

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Holy fuck that was awesome.

Pratt + Motorcycles + Raptors = The Most Baller Thing On The Planet

 

[Wilbur]

Watch Jurassic Park again on Blu Ray and come back to me, my friend.

Did quite recently m8

dem animatronics

 

[KooopaKid]

The teaser was much more exciting. I'm not excited anymore. No magic. I'll wait for feedback.

 

[Gonzalez]

the final villain

Spoiler

is man

Watch it be Goldblum who causes the problems with this park.

"I must create the chaos you see for my... Uhhh... Uhhh... Chaos Theory to come true, yes... Uhhh... Uhhhh... And there it is.

 

[blazenumb1]

Although the trailer didn't get me overly excited, I'm gonna hold my opinion until I see more in the coming months.

Very well put, good sir. I, too, suggest more people read the book.

I still think JP 1 has more convincing CG than most movies. I have never understood why that is but it really looks great. The blend of practical and CG effect was excellent as well. I watched it recently and was ver impressed.

I think it had a lot to do with Dean Cundey's natural/organic cinematography style, too. The Lost World brought in Janusz Kamiński and a more stylized look, and I just don't think it works as well. Same for JP3.

This still has a kind of colorful style to it (it seems), like the last two.

 

[jmdajr]

I will straight up walk out of the fucking theater if I see that dogshit.

I'd wait for Redbox.
