I always wondered why a studio never took up a R rated killer dino(s) idea and ran with it? And I'm not talking about a Carnosaur movie.

Carnosaur :rockin:
Not really interested.
At least with 2, it was about two different parties. One a rescue operation, the other the company that wanted to exploit their own creations. At least with 3, Doc Grant was being lied to and even that was a stretch, but serviceable.
Now we're supposed to believe a completely functioning park for who knows how long, goes foul again? Probably due to someone like Wayne Knight again.
I think its gonna be silly. The dark trailer is misleading.
Trailers for trailers :dsp:
I have faith. :2thumbs:
Not interested. Looks like a rehash. And I don't like the cast. The lead guy from GotG.. hate that guy. :dislike:

Looks pretty lame in my opinion. The writing seems terrible and corny and the plot extremely cliche....but it's Jurassic Park so I will obviously see it regardless. I'm part of the problem
It's all gonna be a Black Fish analogy.
A megalodon...sweet!
Just reminds me how badly I still want the Meg movie to be made :dsp:
The megalodon was the only thing that I liked in that trailer. The cgi is terrible. No practical dinosaur effects that I could see. Lame cast. A GMO dino. :dsp:
I know I will end up seeing this one....enjoyed the 1st one so much....megalodon was pretty fuckin cool though!
This will likely be the worse JP, yet.
There were practically no scenes shown in the trailer where a practical dinosaur would work and not look like Carnosaur. The practical dinos in the first film only worked under the following conditions:
a) night
b) raining
c) not shown full-on (for more than a few seconds)
d) no full-motion or detailed performance necessary
...there were no exceptions to this. Daylight doesn't work. Walking and running doesn't work. Needing to be articulate doesn't work.
edit: also, not a megalodon. That would be a shark, but what jumped out wasn't even a fish. What jumped out would be closer to a mosasaurus, though they made it way, way bigger than they really were. Turns out most of our assumptions of the more popular aquatic dinosaurs over-estimate their size.
That's what I liked about the original Jurassic Park, they only used cgi when they had to. It was kept at a bare minimum. This was most likely for cost reasons but that's why the effects work so well.
Mmmm, the first film had different limitations than now. In 1992 the practical dinos worked best close up, with limited movement while animation was necessary for articulated performance and more full body shots but the shading technology of the day couldn't stand up to close-ups. They were also limited based on what was just flat out possible to do in the amount of time. Limitations all around made the dinosaurs, period, only shown when absolutely necessary because that shit, no matter how it's done, is expensive.
Now, there's no limitation. The dinos can be done close-up in animation and can be rendered more realistically than anything that could be build practically. The problem here is "can"...they aren't in that trailer. They look really disappointing considering what is possible now, much less what was possible ten or twelve years ago. It's almost like they dug up the old shaders and textures to do them like the older films or something.
