3 wasn't that bad, but it could have been better. This one might surprise you.

I loved the first, liked the second and I guess enjoyed the third...just a little bit. If and when number four comes out I'll have to go see it; honestly don't have much of a choice. I grew up with these movies.

'Jurassic Park 4' to Arrive June 2014, Steven Spielberg to Produce

'Jurassic Park 4' will arrive in theaters June 13, 2014, Universal announced on Friday. Steven Spielberg won't be directing this time around, but he is going to produce the project with Frank Marshall.

Universal has yet to pick a director for the fourth installment of the dinosaur film franchise, which it plans to shoot and release in 3D. The studio and Spielberg have converted the original film to 3D and it will be a re-released in theaters on April 5. Spielberg was very involved in the conversion according to executives at the studio, trying to ensure it merited a theatrical re-release.

He confirmed at Comic-Con in 2011 that a writer was working on a new version, divulging little more. Giving the film a release date firms up the time table as Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver work on the script.

It's dinosaurs running around eating people, of course I'm going to go see it. :)

I will definitely watch it. Jurassic Park was one of my favorites as a kid. I even collected the dinosaur action figures. lol

These movies are great.

Who would not want to see Jurassic Park 4! I love sequels to classics, especially when the original team is involved. However, I would like to see more originals out, where are the Jurassic Parks and Star Wars of 2013?

Star Wars - not this year but coming soon.

Let's be real-- the stars of this movie are still going to be the dinosaurs-- but Jurassic World continues to add humans who will at least prevent us from screaming "Bring back Goldblum!" at the screen.

And despite rumors about things like aquatic dinosaurs and a return to the original island, nothing whatsoever has been confirmed.

Jurassic World
 

I'm sure some of the older members here recall that I have an unconditional love for Jurassic Park and even, to an extent, its sequels (The Lost World is vastly underrated and Jurassic Park III had its moments).

And of course, for the last 14 years there have been rumours flying around about the 4th installment. I imagine most of us have seen the trailer now, but just in case...



Most reactions so far seem...cautious. Most people agree that the opening half of the trailer - as we see John Hammond's vision realised - is pretty darn spectacular. I love the look of the park, the Monorail, and THE GODDAMN SHARK FOOD.

On the note of sharks, however, there are two VERY divisive aspects in the latter half of the trailer. Some believe the shark has well and truly been jumped.

1) The Hybrid Dinosaur
2) The Trained Velociraptors

I, however, am pretty damn okay with it. Perhaps I'm blinded by nostalgic devotion, but here are my thoughts on why this is a good next step.

The theme of the entire series is Man vs. Nature. In the first film, this came from our reliance of automation and computer technology. The second film takes a far more military approach as we try to take nature by force. Both expose our naivety. The third installment draws more parallels between man and nature by emphasising the theme of family. In any case, humanity's ambition and reckless self-assuredness forms our downfall.

Now they could simply rinse and repeat one of the aforementioned ways of exploring this theme, but instead they've taken the next logical step. Crichton was writing at a time when we were experiencing a feeling of mastery due to our ability to map and recreate DNA. Two and a half decades on, we're in a world where we can manipulate DNA. Of course, after the thrill of mastery over recreating dinosaurs wane, we would move to creating dinosaurs. The GM Food of the animal kingdom.

The Diabolus Rex (this new dinosaur) is true to Crichton's ideals in that they take his themes, his concerns and his criticisms of genetic science into the 2010s. Same theme, new idea.

2) As for the trained raptors, think about it. The films have all established the Raptors as highly intelligent creatures with some level of societal structure. In the first film, they were created and immediately caged in a tiny enclosure - a creature with self awareness would resent this and grow bitter. They didn't kill for fun, they killed for revenge. Likewise in The Lost World, they are allowed to grow and form their society on this island and suddenly new creatures come along and start fucking shit up. They owe us no loyalty. In the third film, same issue - raptors gotta eat and we're easy prey they've never seen.

However, with Pratt's character portraying a behavioural researcher/trainer for the Raptors, it stands to reason that like a Lion tamer they have formed some bond with him. If they are treated right and exposed to humans with kindness from a young age, of course they could be trained. We get dogs to hunt foxes, we could get raptors to hunt another dinosaur IF done properly.

In short, I'm optimistic. It's a new film with new ideas but it seems to be staying true to the essence of the series, without being a mere rehash.

I think it looks amazing and I can't wait to see it

What's up with the CGI gates?

can't wait, can't wait, can't wait......i'm doing the happy dance ::smile::

First part of trailer was awesome! Then Chris Pratt and his raptor biker gang. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

i agree the raptors were amazing in the others, to see that they have "trained" them seems a bit sad as they were the ultimate killing team. that said how ever the bike / raptor scene did look awsome. but wrong

Definitely want to see it. Will reserve judgment until then.

But like someone said previously the Dinosaurs are the stars.

Why did they give almost every new dino stripes or spots? Christ, they look more like large cats now. ::sad::

Can't wait.
I've got faith in Andy Dwyer aka Burt Macklin.

For those of you who've seen Pacific Rim, I found this on tumblr and couldn't help but share.. http://radioactive-cannibal.tumblr.c...d-up-nikkwhyte
I fucking die every tiem.

No, but seriously, I can't WAAAAIT to see this. I don't even care how bad it is. I'm in it for the dinosaurs. Bad CGI and all.
