CLEARLY TAG SPOILERS.

Spoiler thread here.



JURASSIC WORLD releases June 12th, 2015

Filming has wrapped! The first trailer is expected to hit with INTERSTELLAR.

First official poster:

Set and official pictures:

 

[Superblatt]

Can't believe it's actually filming!!

 

[brandonh83]

After the slapstick, Looney Tunes sequels I'm ready for something closer to the first one which I feel they're aiming to do. Time will tell obviously but I think the days of kicking raptors out of windows because gymnastics and cell phones ringing inside of dino bellies are behind us.

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Too much bloom.

 

[Graphics Horse]

This is a theme park right? So they might have people dressed up as dinosaurs.

I'm just putting that out there in case some people have see cartoon dinosaur costumes and get worried about the sfx.

 

[brandonh83]

Too much bloom.

Wait until the set photo lens flares.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

I don't see Dinosaurs

 

[Nafai1123]

The happening of dinosaurs has begun! Makes me sad that Crichton isn't around anymore

 

[Fuchsdh]

Seeing the old Jeeps makes me happy beyond words.

 

[120v]

no dinosaurs confirmed

 

[Guevara]

Long shot, but is this the Honolulu Zoo?

 

[brandonh83]

Long shot, but is this the Honolulu Zoo?

Sure is!

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

I'm having a lot of trouble getting excited for this. I think it's gonna be a dud.

 

[Graphics Horse]

Long shot, but is this the Honolulu Zoo?

It was but the dinos ate all the animals.

 

[Manu]

I still don't know how I should feel about this.

 

[Betta Lines]

Now eventually they do plan to have dinosaurs in their dinosaur film, right?

 

[brandonh83]

I'm having a lot of trouble getting excited for this. I think it's gonna be a dud.

On what grounds? We've seen... very little and heard very little about this. I would understand maybe after seeing a teaser or trailer or something, but damn. Starting with your TREVORROWOROROWWW posts and now your continued negativity I really don't think you'll like it either way Sculli. I hope you do! But you won't.

I'm thinking it will at least easily be the best sequel. That's not necessarily grounds for excitement considering the sequels we already got, but I think based on what little we do know that it's going to be more fresh and not just some "oh, Grant or Malcolm get stuck on the island AGAIN for some contrived reason" sequel.

 

[Guevara]

Sure is!

Cool, I thought I recognized it and I know they film in Hawaii.

 

[120v]

Now eventually they do plan to have dinosaurs in their dinosaur film, right?

no.. but there will be flashbacks to jurassic park 3, so technically they will be in the film

 

[Borgnine]

Are there feathers in this?

 

[Danielsan]

Man, those jeeps.

<3

I really hope this turns out good. I saw Jurasic Park in 3D on the big screen last year. Still as fantastic as ever.

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

So, the park is called Jurassic Park? Cool!

 

[Beardz]

Are there feathers in this?

Obviously.

 

[Cartman86]

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!

 

[brandonh83]

So, the park is called Jurassic Park? Cool!

Where did you get that from? The set photo only shows the traditional T-rex skeleton...

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

I'm having a lot of trouble getting excited for this. I think it's gonna be a dud.

I'm in like a meh state.

 

[neptunes]

Glad to see some SUV action returning

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

Where did you get that from? The set photo only shows the traditional T-rex skeleton...

That Jeep says "Jurassic Park" on it. I'm assuming that's what they're calling the park.

 

[brandonh83]

That Jeep says "Jurassic Park" on it. I'm assuming that's what they're calling the park.

Clearly an old Jeep though from the chronology of the first film; it may be a flashback or they may even find it on the island since it's the same island. But I'm pretty sure we know that the park is called Jurassic World.

Yeah it's pretty much based entirely on the fact that they've given a director whose first (and honestly rather middling) indie feature that cost less than $1 mil a $200m budget. It just screams crazy to me.

[Reuenthal]

I hope we get some dinosaurs with feathers

Ah, I didn't think about the flashbacks. I also haven't kept up with this movie, so forgive my ignorance.

It was competent. I wasn't really into the story but the directing, acting, editing, shots and all that seemed totally fine. Also it's not like he's personally headlining where every single penny of the budget goes. They have financial advisers and people that generally handle that sort of thing (like producers).

No worries I mean, who knows? We don't know much as I've been saying but I'm pretty sure that Jeep isn't part of the new park. Plus it looks very dilapidated. It may not even be a flashback, they could stumble upon it during the journey.

 

[triplestation]

where are the dinosaurs

or is this movie about grass

 

[brandonh83]

or is this movie about grass

What grass? All I see is green screen.

 

[Dragnet]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[brandonh83]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!

Imma hang with these guys, sup bros

 

[Branduil]

I'm having a lot of trouble getting excited for this. I think it's gonna be a dud.

Can't be worse than III.

 

[Dragnet]

Imma hang with these guys, sup bros

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Im glad it actually you know..
Jurassic Park again.

Isla Nublar makes it even better.
Bring on more ruins from the original.

 

[Cartman86]

Imma hang with these guys, sup bros

Feathers?

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Nothing to do with that. It's that a production that big is an entirely different experience for a director. There are so many moving parts that it's hard for a green director to keep their vision. And that's only if they do in fact have a vision, which is harder to get on screen when you've got no leverage because you've never directed anything close to a big budget production in your life.

 

[Diprosalic]

Are there feathers in this?

not dino ones.

Universal has a mad hard-on for this, given the same thing happened with 47 Ronin. They must enjoy throwing bad money after good, or something.

 

[Retro]

Interesting seeing the old JP Jeep, but it's pretty damn dinged up and rusty. Here's hoping this 'reboot' is actually tied to the original films and we get a few scenes where they poke around the first park.

 

[SJRB]

I still can't believe this is actually happening.

 

[antitrop]

Can't be worse than III.

I fully believe that it could. I thought III was actually at least watchable and left plenty of room for another sequel to be worse.

 

[Clydefrog]

Long shot, but is this the Honolulu Zoo?

Heh, I guessed the same thing!

I used to always park at the zoo whenever I'd go to Waikiki.

Gareth Edwards seems to know his stuff for Godzilla coming off the micro-budget Monsters but he started in visual effects, at least. Never seen this Trevorrow's stuff, though.
