Well I have seen the Navy send boomers after Godzilla, so why shouldn't an Army officer place two civilians under arrest for no reason...    ;)

EDIT: [-insert picture of dancing T-Rex here-]

Yes, I suppose there would be no movie if Malcom and Grant decided not to go anywhere.

It was more plot device than a factually-based action.  Who do you think I am, Tom Clancy?

Army Person: You need to come with us.
Grant/Malcolm: No.
Army Person: Um...okay.
Narrator: Later, the country was destroyed by dinosaurs.  The end!

No, I snuck into Universal Studios and stole the real script.  Sorry, I should have put that in spoiler tags.

Maybe it's martial law or something.  The Armed Forces don't always make for the best law enforcement.  I blame it on George W.  You know he doesn't care about smart people.  Anyway, it never got to the point where I was happy with it, and I forgot to take it down after "help" dried up.

Do you still have it? Cause I'd like to read it, and the link that was supplied earlier dosn't work. If you do still have the fan fic could you email it to me please?

Jurrasic park 3 was horrible. The lead movie critic from the daily mail gave it 5 stars though. That was they day I stopped reading the daily mails movie reviews.

It better be. After the "not as good as the rest of the series" III, this should be better. Hopefully, Goldblum will return.

I'd like Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neil to return in this one.

Trailer for Jurassic World looks interesting, yet worrying. My hopes aren't high, yet I'm optimistically curious...

Ya that scene was cool. The CGI looked a little rough though, hopefully they're still doing some post-production on the effects.

It's hard to tell from that whether the movie will be good, but I'm still looking forward to it.

I must watch movies differently than most people do.  When I saw JP1 it was during opening week, in a good theatre, and it mostly blew me away.  JP2 gave me eye cancer.  JP3 was a lot of fun :)

I know nothing whatsoever of JP4, and have no plans to watch any of the trailers or read any details about it until it's released.

I'm moderately disappointed that it takes place on the island again.  With a name like "Jurassic World", it gives the impression of a much larger scope for the story.  Still, it could be good.  Even if it's not, I'm definitely going to see it in theaters.  I'd be shocked if it was as good or impressive as the first movie, but it could easily be better than the second or third.

I note with some dismay the prominence of two kids in that trailer.  Could we have a dinosaur movie that doesn't involve kids?

I'm with Tachy: JP 3 is stupid as hell but I love it and it's a quick sit. The Lost World was a movie I watched two times in a row and couldn't really remember anything about it outside of the San Diego climax. It's just really boring despite there not being a reason for it to be.

The Jurassic World trailer didn't sell me until that very last shot, because that's just one of the most coolest badass things I've seen in a while.

I think this trailer looks awful.

Frankly, I just don't think Jurassic Park is a film that can possibly be given a good sequel that stays true to the original film.

Jurassic World just looks like they decided to take the concept "back to basics", but ended up accidentally remaking the first film instead.

I would have preferred one of the crazy ideas they were kicking around for a while, years ago, like dinosaurs with guns on their heads or half-human/half-dinosaur super-soldiers or a pre-historic dinosaur virus wiping out half of humanity.


Also, Jurassic Park 3 is way better than 2 even if neither are particularly great films.

I loved The Lost World as a kid, but having seen it again recently, the story and characters are absolute bollocks. I still think it has some of the best action sequences in the franchise, though.

They're both awful. You're essentially saying that one is a more polished turd than the other.

If you're comparing the quality of polish from one turd to another, then there are probably more enjoyable ways that you could be spending your time. Like pretending that neither of those films exist, and that what is essentially a remake of the first film might actually be enjoyable. We know that it probably won't, but we can pretend until it comes out.

I have to admit, the dinosaurs are less extinct then my ability to give a shit.

I guess they will be really umping up the carnage and splatter on this one, considering it's taking place in an active park, and there are now lots of delicious tourists to be eaten, so we'll get to see lots of women and children get eaten this time: did any actually get eaten onscreen in the previous movies?

Honestly, it was so annoying seeing lots of men die trying to save Sarah and the WASPy dimwit from the third film from their own incompetence and stupidity.  So now we'll get to see some get scarfed down like a rib buffet.  Semi-literally.

I'd be shocked—SHOCKED—if this movie isn't rated PG-13.  I'm sure today's PG-13 would have been the R of yesteryear, but there's no way a big budget dino flick like this would miss out on that lucrative merchandizing.
