Especially Alan Grant and Ellen. That just reeks of the continuous nostalgia trend we've been seeing in movies lately. :roll:

To me it looks like they're trying to round the dinosaurs up not kill them. People probably are out there trying to kill them while Claire and Owen are working to save them and move them to a new island or something.

Regardless of the premise. I'm stoked for this film. Too much of a sucker for anything with dinosaurs.

Yeah, this is my only real problem with the trailer. Plus, the Theri's face looks kinda ugly.

I'm not even sure what to think The feathered dinosaur looked really cool, thinking it was some kind of raptor. As far as the trailer as a whole goes...there was a lot going on. Was that an I-Rex at the end?

Oh, and I wish they used a new sauropod like Diplodocus instead of the Apato. That way, the pattern of Brachi/new sauropod could continue.

I assume you're talking about the one in the ice biome? That would be Pyroraptor.

Yes sir, you hit the nail on the head. Thanks for providing the name as well!

Lol I saw this as well. Kind of goofy, but I bet it will look good on film.

I'm really hoping the reason this is in all the ads is it's just a MASSIVE misdirect and the scene is gonna end comedically with it going back to eating plants.

At worst, it'd be neat to have an agressive herbivore again. That's hasn't been in the films since 1997.

I love how people are gonna say this when we straight up SEE people handling the dinosaurs in the skreeonking movie. Owen is basically domesticating the Paras, the Apatosaurus is just rooming, Blue and the baby are intelligent enough to hide,
On top of that, I don't remember a single scene that even implied that escaped dinosaurs are an existential threat to humanity. Potential ecological disaster, yes. The next dominant species when humanity inevitably wipes itself out, yes. But not a threat to our existence.

You know...I gotta wonder in the world of Jurassic Park, why has no one ever tried resurrecting other extinct animals like mammoths, saber-toothed cats, ground sloths, better yet more recent extinctions like the Tasmanian tiger, moa, or dodo?

If they can bring back skreeonking dinosaurs. Those should not be an issue.

I think they do that in the Camp Cretaceous show.

I think. I haven't seen it yet. This is just based off something I heard. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah, there is a single Saber Toothed Cat. I haven't finished the show so I can't say more.
Trailer looks really good, and I'm very excited to see the movie! I'll be happy to see the Therizino as an aggressive herbivore. There is too much "herbivores are pacificsts" in JP/JW.

When you do get down to it. All the "dinosaurs" we've seen in the Jurassic Park films. They're not dinosaurs at all but rather heavily modified frogs made to look just like them in appearance. They modeled them the way they are as people would expect them to look like given T-Rex having no feathers when the prologue in Dominion shows prior to the extinction of the dinosaurs that it did.

I know in the book rather than frogs, it's heavily modified crocodiles.

Why if we ever successfully resurrect a mammoth. It's not a true mammoth but rather a heavily modified modern-day elephant that looks like a mammoth.

No... that's not quite accurate...

They only used frog DNA to fill in the gaps in the DNA sequence of the dinosaur DNA they had already collected, which had degraded overtime and was incomplete. "Full of holes," as the movie put it.

They weren't frogs genetically modified to look like dinosaurs, that's just... wrong.

I'm loving Mama Blue all ready.

Speaking of parents there was some guy on Reddit trying to prove the T rex infant from The Lost World was coming back to mate with Rexy because the franchise needs more Rexes.

Also is CC S4 worth watching?

It's definitely the lesser of the seasons (so far) but I wouldn't say it's bad, save for a groan-worthy romance subplot that came out of absolutely nowhere.

Furthermore, in the books, they weren't genetically modified crocodiles either. They just used denucleated croc oocytes, which is an entirely different concept.

At this point, I’m expecting a disappointment.
