I can't imagine it'll fly. Unless they, while making hybrid dinosaurs, literally made a dragon, which I would be like "uh" then "hmm" and then "yes good".

The overhead camera angle made me think that the pterodactyls get out (maybe the poster's idea about the new dinosaurs wrecking the other dinosaur areas releases them?). There's also the shot of the kid hiding in terror at what I imagine is a raptor, but that could be another trailer misdirection and and that could be one of Pratt's hunting dog raptors. He'll burst in and start licking the kid's face and then Chris Pratt comes in and is like "he likes you"

I did see a leaked clip that showed Pratt jumping between the kid from the beginning of the trailer and a couple of raptors who sorta did the "ERwAHH? Master say stop" look that dogs do when he put up his hands in a "Hold on now guys" motion. So I'm pretty sure those Raptors are going to be at least vaguely domesticated.

In my ideal version of this film there'd be a cheesy animatronic ride that simulates the first film. That or a 'Jurassic Park' film exists as an in-universe dramatisation of real events.

I want to see actors running around dressed as Malcolm. Or a squeaky toy lawyer for dogs to chew on.

The Lost World is basically the Gremlins 2 to Jurassic Park's Gremlins, although the satire isn't exactly the same level of obvious, so the reactions to the two comparatively are quite similar.

Unfortunately since it's a Spielberg film most of the plot will be centered around the two dopey looking kids from the start of the trailer, and you'll get like one full scene with Rex Raptor, along with 2-3 Predator-like off-screen kills.

It's not a Spielberg film.

Spielberg movies have almost absolute PERFECT balance between human elements and showing the "monster"/effects. Jaws and Jurassic Park are probably the most premiere examples of the genre. It's the perfect mix of buildup/anticipation and not showing too much/or too little.

War of the Worlds was also excellent in this, for a more recent example.

Gatts posted:

Aliens, Gremlins 2, and Jurassic Park have similar underlying themes of man and nature and control or weaponizing it and failing. Gremlins 2 is the only one where an attempt at dialog between the two parties was made but ended in bloodshed. Aliens was to nuke it and survive. Jurrasic Park was to respect it and let it be.

Prometheus is a meditation of how trying to understand it can lead to madness and disaster and not being satisfactory.

I agree.

During production there were several images released (via Twitter, I believe) of things from the original JP, like the dock sign and the T-rex-crushed old school jeep. I thought it was for nostalgia but now I wonder if the restricted area on the map is the original site from JP and that's where our heroes/movable feast retreat to at some point in the film. Perhaps as a last resort. Cue original recipe Hammond-model T-rex to save the day.

What if the new dino is a hilariously obvious genetic failure that, while dangerous, is unlikely to survive long? Like, a big-rear end T-rex-looking thing with ingrown claws that are slowly cutting its chest open, and, I don't know, an entire pack of fetal Velociraptors welded onto its left side. It kills at least one character by vomiting its own blood and guts on them.

The CG here is a bit much. What made Jurassic Park 1 work was the seamless mix of CG AND Practical effects. This looks ALL CG which is a big mistake. Cracked recently did a nifty video about the CG/Practical behind the scenes
http://www.cracked.com/video_19182_14-movie-special-effects-you-wont-believe-werent-cgi.html

Jurassic Park is a near perfect movie in a lot of respects:
1. When the characters experience awe in the dinosaurs for the first time- so does the audience. We don't fully see the bracheasaurus or any dinosaur until Grant does.
2. Most of the violence is left "up to the imagination". Excluding the lawyer getting eaten- Every death is off-screen and made better for it.
3. The opening character introductions are pitch perfect. The first 20 minutes are all about introducing the characters and each time a new character is met- everything you need to know about that character is made from their first scene.

Thinking about it, the Lost World is a lot like the Matrix Reloaded. We wanted to spend more time in that world -- and got exactly that. Unfortunately there was no audience surrogate who we could relate to.

I like 3 better than 2 for the simple reason that 3 is just kinda dumb and unambitious, whereas 2 actively goes out of its way to poo poo on the first film.

EDIT: And gently caress the T-Rex; killing it wasn't making GBS threads on the first film. Its death was a dumb scene, but I didn't feel personally insulted by it and if you did you're dumb.

I think we need to see more of the Dinosaurs before going "this is too much CG". All three of the Jurassic Park movies used both CG and practical effects, I see no reason to think this one won't.

2 makes fun of 1 and parts of it (and the dumb book), just like Gremlins 2 does the same with 1. It doesn't "poo poo" on it, it just makes light of certain things, and puts a self aware audience member (Malcom) in the center of the film.

3, I don't know what the hell 3 is, and the pacing/buildup is as bad as good as the other two are.

Of course it looks good. Using an animatronic sea monster to jump out of the water like that would be a terrible idea with CG available. It would look awful and there's no way a mega budget modern film would use animatronics in that way. Very predictable that the CG vs. practical effects complaints have started already though.

Why are people so upset about the raptors, if I was building a park I would probably want to train them too so maybe they wouldn't go around killing every single person they come across. Things that intelligent with that kind of mean streak/sadism should not left to their own devices.

I am fairly certain the engineered dino reveal is that it has chameleon like abilities. The big bad in the second book was a dinosaur that had chameleon genes and was basically invisible if it didn't move (get it?) And I always wondered why that has never made it into one of the films as it seems such an obvious direction to go.

The trailer looks like someone spent an afternoon on the couch watching Jurassic Park and Deep Blue Sea back to back and I love that cheesy poo poo so much.

I don't care if everything else about it sucks, just those scenes of the park with the slowed down theme are enough to give me chills. Just the park looks so much loving better than I, as a kid, could ever imagine.

And then it gets better because the dinosaurs escape and eat people again, loving again, they didn't learn poo poo from the first three movies, did they.

And then it will get even better because at the end the raptors AND the rex will attack the new dinosaur as it stands poised to eat Chris Pratt's pretty little face off.
