Killing dinoaurs with their one weakness - gymnastics.

cause you know little girls have the momentum to knock raptors out of a window! It's neato and great to set up a joke for Ian to say.
 
Please, no goddamned kids this time. First film would have been flawless without them. There were no kids in the book. Fucking kids ruin every serious movie, they aren't interesting at all, they're just there to annoy the audience. Get it Spielberg? Hope so.
 
Eh, the only movie that had awfully annoying kids was the third one. And the god awful kid was probably the least of that movie's issues.

The grandkids were in the book. Hammond brought them hoping the little shits would help emotionally sway the guests to approve the park.

Hell he dies cursing his grandkids cause they were screwing around in the control room with T rex roars over loudspeakers etc causing him to injure himself so the compys could eat him

I thought no one was allowed to touch Crichton's franchises after his death?

Michael Crichton is dead?!?!

Holy fuck! That just hit me like a ton of bricks. Loved the Lost World and would have loved to seen that one made.

Always had a crush on Ariana Richards, but not in the first JP movie, she was annoying as fuck but since then...she became such a babe

Same.

We need more dino movies!

ya a reboot would be fantastic..then maybe they'll finally make the story from the books.
Which both were 10X better then the crap story they changed it into in the movies.
Don't get me wrong I loved the Dino's in the movies..but goddamn they ruined the first two story wise
 
erugh, I wish Spielberg would try something new and fresh. Someone post him a decent book from a masterworks collection from any genre PLEASE.
 
Everyone who wants the cyborg raptors just wants the franchise to die.

Please bring back the adventure.

Bring back Hawaii, and fences in the jungle, and suspense, and even "OMG the power is off!". Bring back the Jurassic Park from the first two books that we got in the first film but not really the next two.

So you want a reboot? Quick kill him guys before he can REPLY!
 
In the Jurassic Park novel...
There were Tim and Lex, the funny thing is, is that Tim was the eldest, while Lex was the kid sister. The movie just switched them.

Tim was actually pretty mature, all things considered.
But I wanted to throw Lex at the T-Rex, when she started randomly coffing when Grant and the kids were starting to move away from the docks, while the Rex was still sleeping. Darn little imp.

The Lost World novel was good too, but...
I really hated Levine. He's like a very obnoxious and rude Alan Grant. I actually hate him more than the major antagonist, Lewis Dodson.

The team goes out to rescue him and he still acts like an a**-hole, by the way, his trip partner got killed and he still continues to do his research on how extinction works, which by the end of the novel, reveals to be a futile experiment. He seems very non-chalant about people asking questions.

Still alive fucker!

I would be okay with a reboot.

That said, I think you can make a cool movie that returns to Site B or the ruins of Isla Nublar again. There is almost unlimited potential that's been ruined by bad writers.

That said, I was thinking more along the lines of a First Class style "reboot". Show a first iteration of the park, with a slightly younger Muldoon and the first/flawed generation of dinosaurs. Tagline could be something like "We may need to make the next batch less aggressive".

A reboot would be totally justified for the JP series. Back to basics. Back to the gory deaths. Back to the cool dinosaurs.

I would accept an R-rated reboot. Hell, they could get away with a lot more violence for a PG-13 these days as well, so why not?

I loved them finding the security guard's ear in the book. SQUISH.
 
I thought it was already confirmed by Spielberg's office that no official discussions have taken place in any capacity and that somebody merely exaggerated a passing comment between Spielberg and somebody else?

And now we're trusting IGN for rumours? Jesus.

Please don't ruin my dreams. I truly care about this franchise. ;(

Then let it go.

I did. Then Telltale games brought it back, broken and dirty and not the same as it once was.

I'm just mourning what it used to be. I'm thinking of staging an intervention.
 
JP4 could be about a group of dinosaurs found to exist in the jungles of Africa, a group that were not genetically created in a lab but are the remaining descendants of those that went extinct.
 
I would very much rather JP4 be about the reptilian aliens who seeded the Dinosaurs millions of years ago in the first place, return to find these squishes playing god with their seeds of life.
 
As long as he keep his raptors and not the official feathered ones that were revealed a few years ago.

I'm only paying to see it if Giorgio A. Tsoukalos plays an alien.
 
Reboot back in Hawaii. I was just there recently and took that helicopter tour that lands at the Jurassic park falls in the movie and got to walk around out there. Was pretty awesome.

Too bad the landing pad was destroyed right after shooting from the typhoon.
 
Several years ago, the Oscar-winning director worked with Protosevich on a potential remake of Chan-wook Park's Oldboy that was to star Will Smith. That film ran into rights problems and didn't come to fruition.

WTF?! I'm glad that didn't happen. Talk about awful casting decisions.
 
"a potential remake of Chan-wook Park's Oldboy that was to star Will Smith"

I don't want a JP4 from this guy. Hell, I don't want him in the movie business full stop. You don't even joke about shit like this.

The idea made me cringe.
Maybe they can also hire danny devito to be comic relief.


I really want a new JP though, although I have no idea how it can ever live up to the first movie.
