They should have just strapped lasers to the back of the T-Rex and called it a day.

He's actually the kid from The Lost World when the T-Rex rampaged through San Diego and stepped into his backyard for a snack. Seeing the T-Rex eat his dog with the doghouse hanging from his mouth instilled a deep trauma and fear of dinosaurs in him. Not wanting their son to discriminate against all lizardkind, they encourage him to visit Jurassic World in order to overcome his fear of carnivorous lizards.
Rumor is they're also trying to sell it to the military as a bio-weapon, hence why they need Starlord to tame it.
That's so goddamn brilliant.
You must not have kids. They can have separation anxiety so maybe this is the first time he's leaving his parents for an extended period of time. As we know this isn't like just going to the zoo a couple miles away from your house for a couple hours. It's a trip that probably requires a plane ride, a boat ride, and who knows what else to get there.
Like someone else mentioned, maybe he had a fear of dinosaurs and this is him going up against his fears.
There are a lot of reasons she could be proud of him. Parents are proud of their kids for lots of things. Funny how you pick that out as something bad about the trailer.
I thought it was a great trailer, the only goofy thing to me was the 'friendly' raptors. But you know, why not? There are plenty of wildlife experts who get chummy with lions, bears, tigers, etc. Who's to say a human who raises baby raptors from birth couldn't befriend them?

Should have gotten Solid Snake.
That would make sense as to why they would create it. However why would you store a bioweapon like that on an island full of civilians and how the fuck do they expect Starlord to tame something like that?

making jokes about getting chased by dinosaurs too lol. good way to assuage his fears.
People create destructive things all the time but they usually show some level of common sense. Creating an invisible super smart predator for the enjoyment of a bunch of brats isn't exactly smart. Now if it's for the military, that makes a lot more sense on some levels.

No other gif could describe this perfectly enough.
tbh. why would you make something that can climb and then put it in something it could climb out of.
what's wrong with these people.
I wonder what the plot reason is for Chris Pratt's character being completely oblivious to the scientists having "cooked up" a giant dino in the lab?
Isn't he like the zoo's animal trainer? Wouldn't he at least know SOMETHING?
He is on the same island in the same park right?
"Err. guys why are you building this giant new enclosure with walls higher than the one for the T-Rex next to the breeding lab?"

Ok, i actually laughed out loud at the genetically modified dinosaur. Come on man, lol.
Not really hyped thus far. Hope the CGI isn´t finished yet, cause it looks rough. Hope another trailer later on can sell me on it.

Apparently they didn't think it could climb
Do you know what your boss is doing when you're not in his room?

Hope the movie is not centered around the kid.

I wonder what the overlap is between the "genetically modified dinos are stupid" and "they don't have feathers because they're genetically modified" crowds.
Thank you, perfect analogy. NOT.

Can't say i like the idea of the hybrid nonsense but i know i'll be seeing this anyway.
I would hope they had security cameras on their bioweapon.

Brilliant.
but either it could climb before so they'd know or they genetically engineered it to climb so they'd know.

So goddamn good.
Do we get a part watching the raptors avoiding lasers in a small room?
Eh, I know this isn't exactly the same thing but my 3 year old got afraid of wolves after reading the 3 little pigs a bunch of times. I took her to the zoo and there were statues of wolves and she was afraid to even stand by them at first. I pushed her a bit and she finally built up the courage to go sit by them and get her picture taken with them. I wouldn't say that is cruel of me to do.
But ya, if it is suppose to be the same kid as in the previous movie who's dog got eaten by the runaway T-rex, then ya, I wouldn't push them to go to an island park filled with dinos. heh.

If this is true I hope the ridiculousness of it is brought up.

C'mon guys. Of course the CGI isn't finished. It's still how many months away from release right now? 
This is the best thing that came out of the trailer.
By storing it on the island they kill two birds with one stone: they present a new attraction to to the visitors to boost attendance, and the military gets to see their potential product in action whenever they do a live feeding or whatever.

Was unconvinced of Chris Pratt's dramatic chops in the few serious scenes he had in GotG and not convinced with the few shots of him here. He always looks like he's trying to hold back a smile. Not that these movies would stretch anyone's dramatic abilities, but when you're unconvincing in even an action blockbuster then I don't have confidence in you.
They do, but forgot it could turn invisible.
I was just spinning bullshit. Totally unrelated character.

And no one would second guess them experimenting with dinosaurs on a dinosaur park/lab. So they can work incognito.
Alright, borat.

That's not cruel, but if you sent you daughter to an island filled with wolves, where she could go a show and watch them devour other animals, by HERSELF, then yes, I would think that's cruel, haha.
Plus, with dinos, it's not like the kid would ever run into a dinosaur outside of the park, so who cares if he's afraid of them?

pip pip cheerio you slags!
Eh CGI looks bad, acting looked bad, dialoge seemed bad, but I'll still see it just cause it's Jurassic park. GG universal.
Alright, I can roll with that. I doubt the 'in-movie reason' is going to be anything like that but that would be an acceptable reason.

This is like someone having a fear of penguins and then deciding to travel to Antarctica. It would be entirely possible to avoid them, but it would make for a boring film.
If I am an animal trainer in a zoo and the park administration is building a giant new enclosure right next to the one for brown bears only bigger, how is this similar to my boss doing something in his room without me knowing about it?
I wanted to like it, but to be honest it looks incredibly corny (even for a Jurassic Park movie). A hybrid dinosaur? Really? Also, the writing seems horrible.
Let's hope they at least polish up the CGI a bit for the final cut. I know this is just trailer footage, but at the moment the dinosaurs of the original Jurassic Park were both more impressive and more terrifying.
Can't see this be anything but an extremely mediocre summer blockbuster at the moment. Let's hope it was just a bad trailer made to appeal to the masses.
