This is stupid and kind of awesome at the same time Chris Pratt better have a killer one liner in that scene.

I'm keeping myself cautious and expectations low. But I'll be happy to eat crow if this turns out even a fraction of surprisingly fun like GotG did.
If you come to Germany, I'll invite you

Because this movie is 7 months away from being finished?
That trailer left me... I don't know. On one hand? Another fully operational park mishap is what I've always wanted from another Jurassic Park movie. On the other? We have Chris Pratt
Even in the leaked stuff, I would've been okay with the whole (contains leak spoilers not included in the trailer)
Also, I didn't find the trailer to be that well cut. I honestly expected something better.
Nonetheless, I'll still be there day one.
leading a pack of raptors...

Chris Pratt has some level of communication with them, at least enough that they appeared to be tamed. But this is a whole other level.

Man, please. Think through the shit you say.
Nobody is drawing permanent judgments. But, you watch a trailer to get interested in a movie, and then praise or criticize its direction based upon it. It's how we evaluate whether a movie might currently be worth seeing, or what we like or don't like outside of reviews. It is not saying the movie will end up bad necessarily, just that the trailer makes it LOOK bad.
He's saying if THIS movie came out in place of the first we would fucking love it. But no, based on this trailer - which is the only thing we have to judge on - we would not have, because it's filled with shit CG and comically hammy ridiculousness. Whether the final movie will be like that is a separate discussion together, because he has no way of knowing what the final movie will be like either.
Thst was about people claiming it was going to bomb not that the movie looked bad. Thst is not relevant at all. No ome here is predicting a box office bomb

Haha that's beautiful. Let's get some Robo-Raptors all up in this bitch.
Yup. GAF is pretty damn predictable when it comes to these kind of threads.

AWFUL.
From the directer of 1 low budget comedy film....ugh...why why why did Colin Trevorrow get this gig?

lol come on now.
Who the hell cut this trailer?
Do they understand that the Jurassic Park theme is supposed to accompany scenes of majesty, wonder, and amazement? You're not supposed to use the theme with scenes of anarchy and devastation.
Also, the kids' mom is very hot. Where do I recognize her from?

It's simple... release a trailer 7 months before the movie comes out so that you can capitalize on Star Lord's popularity. It will look better when it releases.
I just want you to be happy. <3

The Lost World and Jurassic Park 3 had problems and are underwhelming sequels, but not because of the raptors. I'm saying that the idea of the raptors being domesticated in this doesn't exactly go against anything about their intellect as presented and developed across the first film and the sequels. This isn't about the overall quality of the last two sequels. Huge difference from what I'm talking about.
I know this is such a stupid question that popped into my head when they mentioned that hybrid dinosaur, but did they focus test the dinosaur (in the world the movie is set in)? You know, like they often do for toys, movies or games? I just imagined the "powers that be" telling the scientists on what to create, like "Make him bigger, our focus tests said he should be as big as possible".
Howard or Greer?

Why do people keep complaining about the gate shot? It looks more or less fine. Like, there's other more obvious stuff that seems sketchier, like the shark bait could have easily just been a physical shark prop on a crane, and then the dino jumping out of the water practically looked like a Pacific Rim monster with all kinds of undulating, overly animated CG parts.
The gate shot seemed perfectly fine. I don't know how you expect them to build a giant tram coming out of a forest opening onto a big body of water with a park/resort on the other side without using CG.
I don't get the obsession with the gate anyways. It was always more thematically "big" in the context of the first movie as this entrance and point of no return for the characters than it was an actual cool looking thing, for me. Just the way it was shot and presented was like "you are about to see something you've never seen before" and you can't go back when you go through. Which was something completely unique to that first movie and had more to do with the unknown amazingness beyond the gate than the actual gate itself. People obsessing over it in the third sequel to a series that has had one great movie is weird.

That has nothing to do with it.
It has everything to do with the fact that in the last three movies raptors were billed as amazingly intelligent murder machines that were basically the villains of the movie. The portrayal of raptors in the last 3 movies seemed to give the impression that they were simply too smart to actually be domesticated.
No amount of CG can mask a lousy script with lousy dialogue. Maybe it will work better in the context of the full film, maybe not. Doesn't change the fact that it gives the impression of this film being dumb, dumb, dumb.

Well...in the films raptors are highly intelligent right? "Smarter than dolphins, whales, they were smarter than primates" according to Allan Grant. And if they bond so well as implied as babies, why not?

In the context of the movie and book, it makes perfect sense
In the book, the only reason they didn't play God and make new dinosaurs was because Hammond didn't want that. Wu was all for them testing their limits and making something new
And now Hammond's dead and Wu is running the research...
Plus, theme parks always go for bigger and better. In-universe, the park has been open for a decade. Dinosaurs aren't the draw they once were. So what else does a theme park that wants to draw in more people do? Make something bigger, better, more over the top to attract them
I think it makes a ton of sense
Eh, this seems to fall into the same trap Godzilla did. A movie just about the monsters. The characters are just there because they need people to run and scream. JP1 wasn't just about the dinos. The characters were just as memorable. It was an actual FILM, not just a big budget CG cutscene.
You know when a painter is just mixing up colors, maybe doing the preliminary outlines. Do you stand over his shoulder and say "That looks stupid man, I've seen way better paintings than that!"?
This movie will redeem itself if one of the raptors is called Jesus.

Jurassic Park is probably one of my favorite movies ever and I even liked JP2 and even JP3 but I will admit that trailer looked pretty bad. And I'm not one to think like that. There are barely any movies I don't like, I liked Godzilla 2014. But man was everything that wasn't an actor in that CG? And really child protag?
I'm keeping myself cautious and expectations low. But I'll be happy to eat crow if this turns out even a fraction of surprisingly fun like GotG did.
To me it looks like a ton of fun. Not worried whether or not the digitally created monsters look "real enough". Great cast too!

Raptinator: The Lost Judgement Day.
Except that's completely different than thinking this trailer makes the film look shit. Which it does.

By all means let's shoehorn in his character again because clearly that did wonders for the second movie.

Would a guy like that ever set foot on a Jurassic Park ever again after what happened in the first two films?
Star Lord riding with Raptors is stupid fun to me. I don't have a problem with it.
Like someone said, the problems with JP2 and 3 were more the stupid humans than dinosaurs. But of course that could also happen here too. Pratt's delivery of that "not a good idea" line was very flat. But they can always redo that as well (I've remembered lines that are delivered in trailers that sound nothing the same in the actual film in other movies)
