Honest Thief posted:Apparently the gate is an actual real physical object, yet it looks as otherworldy CG as the rest of the special effects? Just because it's a physical object doesn't mean it isn't CG in that shot. The worst CGI is the dead shark, because they could've easily used a model for that and it has no weight to it at all. Also the Mosasaur is way too big, it just looks dumb.

Mr. Gibbycrumbles posted:A group of film-makers are sitting around a big table discussing the direction to take with the next Jurassic Park film. It's more that I think the spectacle of Jurassic Park is seeing vaguely believable representations of dinosaurs. I've seen monsters the size of a submarine in countless movies, from Pirates of the Caribbean to Asylum films - I've not seen a really good depiction of a mososaur putting on a show for tourist, something that I think would be more amazing if it was presented with just a little more restraint. Bigger isn't always better. I also know this is going to tie into the feather/no feather debate, but personally this bothers me, that doesn't.

It's also really weird for having a single line plot point that goes loving nowhere but is the most interesting thing in the film.

Just Offscreen posted:I think he is referring to the fact that in one scene the Rex walks out of his paddock where the goat was- shortly after that same stretch of fence is a huge ravine where the car falls down into. It's not the same area of fence though. The Rex comes out in front of the car Ian and Alan are in. The car that is pushed into the ravine is the kids. I always assumed the pen dropped off at both sides of the feeding area. Keep in mind the goat rises up out of the ground. I think that area is an artificial hill that leads the Rex up to feeding zone.

Shadoer posted:Any idea why they didn't just use the raptors? It makes sense, it would have been cool, and really as the Raptors are effectively the "main villains" of Jurassic Park it's fitting for them to be there. The Rex can more easily stomp around San Diego and look impressive whilst being a singular target for the characters to converge on.

It makes absolutely no sense for there to be a pit in the t-rex enclosure where people are intended to watch the animal from cars on the road.

I understand why The Lost World book had to be based on Site-B but I never understood why the film bothered with it, it's so superfluous to everything and just bogs down the meeting with Hammond and Malcolm with lovely exposition.

achillesforever6 posted:I've also heard people bitching about the Mosasaur scene since it uses green screen and CGI because its totally to that scene feasibly by constructing a massive stadium on location and having a giant robotic mosasaur jump out and eat a fake shark. Comparing it with stuff from the Star Wars prequels I mean, they could've used models. Also, random side note, the Mosasaur on the website is the right size.

He has thumbs. At the end, when the Raptor pack turns in Pratt and Co he looks directly into the camera and gives them the thumbs up.

Nearly all the new dinosaurs that are up were drawn by an artist who was given free range on their design, so they won't be in the film. Only the CGI rendered ones will be.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:This except it's the hot doctor lady's DNA. Long story short this movie is going to springboard 5 more films loosely following the plot of the Resident Evil movies. I-Rex is Alice and in the next one she'll be riding a giant rex-cycle. Part of the rumoured plot leaks has the I-Rex and Howard's character sharing an inexplicable bond so it doesn't attack her.

8 Ball posted:I always wondered why they had all that foliage in the raptor cage, wouldn't you want to keep visuals on your supersmart predators who are constantly trying to escape? There's a glass walled viewing area in the building that Grant etc are stood on. The area where they are standing during the feeding is where visitors would cue while waiting to go down and inside. It's just one tiny area of the bigger, inside pen.

Pablo Gigante posted:Yeah, the Dilophosaurus in the movie was basically the size Velociraptors were in real life. The size-changing of the Dilophosaurs and Velociraptors bothered me as a kid since I was a big dinosaur nerd and they were two of my favorite dinos before I had even heard of the movie. The original film is so goddamn good though that it really doesn't matter to me anymore. The Dilophosaurus in the film is a young one, Nedry even reacts with relief that it isn't one of his 'bigger brothers.' In Jurassic World, if the Lego toys are accurate, they have adult ones.

redcheval posted:I'm gonna spoiler this just because it's rampant speculation but I'll eat my hat if it doesn't turn out the I-Rex was made with a heavy dose of people DNA. The whole giving orders, 'HIGHLY INTELLIGENT ANIMAL' schtick seems to be telegraphing that pretty blatantly to me. The I-Rex being white and Bryce Dallas Howard's character being dressed in all white consistently also make me think there's something to it. Gonna be so wacky. Personally I think this is a dumb idea but I'm not 100% sure so whatever. This movie definitely strikes me as more 'movie monster' than 'ancient animals brought back to life' like the first film. It even has opposable thumbs and one of the leaked plot descriptions describes the I-Rex and Bryce Dallas Howard's character as having an unlikely and mysterious bond. It's why it doesn't kill her outright several times.
