    Hey TS146 you stoll my idea. My idea was that a Quetzalcoatlus should be in JP3. And no you didn't think of it. You should think of your OWN IDEAS!!!!!! I bet you didn't even know what a Quetzalcoatlus was before I mentioned it! You even spelled it wrong the first time! And no they are not the dinos at the botom, because Quetzalcoatlus has a 45 ft. wingspan and the one in the logo is too small compared to the trees! JP Animal Control over and out.

    Higagif. thats all it is. Get real guys it's Spinosaurus aegypitacus. We will, though see when the moive comes out. By the way WHAT happened to nedry? (not the one in the moive)


    At 12:52:04 PM on 7/24/2000, TS146 said:
    Thats a possibility UtahraptorI didt think of that. That would be cool. I also think Quetzcoatlus will be in jp3 because if you look at the bottem of the jp3 logo
    you see a few pterasaurs. I belive these are Qutzcoatlus.
    Quetzcoatlus is named after an aztect god. I also think Suchomimus will take Tyrannosaurs's role in jp3. I wonder what will take the Velociraptors place. Maby it will be Spinosaurs.I dont think Baronyx will star in jp3 because it's skull was adapted to eating fish not hunting and killing larg prey. You guys should check out www.ccsnc.com/dda and join a dinosaur club if you are smart enough.

    Hi I read that artical and I dont see how thay would have the under water monster attack people unless they were in boats or if the chacters were crossing a river or stream but the animal would have to be relativaly small to swim freely through a river or stream. If they put a under water animal in the movie I dont think it would be in the movie very much or qualify as a main animal due the fact it lives in the water. I think it would be cool to have a under water prehistoric reptile in the movie though.

    Ever since I have seen the new logo I have been relentless in my search to find out what kind of dinosaur this is. In my research I have discovered many things. Suchomimus was a whole lot larger than Baryonyx. The fossil discovery of Suchomimus was nearly as huge as that of T-Rex. Jack Horner himself said that they was going to put a new dinosaur in the movie that would take T-Rex's place. So, Suchomimus would be the best choice not Baryonyx. All of this means nothing though. If you remember in Jurassic Park, Spielberg thought the Velociraptors had to bigger. So he went against true science and changed them and kept the name Velociraptors. The odd thing was that not to long after Jurassic Park paleontologist discovered a raptor that was as huge as the one's in the movie. This could be the case in the dinosaur in the logo It could be a Suchomimus, but they may call it Baryonyx, but who knows. This is just a theory of mine. I hope I am wrong. What do you all think?


    At 2:23:07 PM on 7/22/2000, Baryonyx said:
    Ok. I finly feigurd out what the Logo is! Now i know that people will stik to there opinons, wich is fine. All right, the dino is.........SPINOSAURUS! I am going to try to send a pic. to the page, the if the pic works or not I will tell you why I belive it's spino.

    In the book they said that the pteridons were fiercley territorial and that is why they could not open the aviery lodge ( in the book). that is one scene I wish they never cut out of the movie, that and the juvinial t-rex that eats ed regis

    1. T-Rex
    2. Velociraptor

    6.Pteradon (they count it as a dinosaur in the movies.)
    7. Mamenchisaurus
    8. Stegosaurus
    9. Compsognathus
    10.Pachycephalosaurus
    11. Brachiosaurus
    12.
    13.
    14.
    15.

    Actually we've only seen 11 different types of dinosaurs in the movie so they can make 4 new dinosaurs... thats if they go by the 15 species thing.. which I don't think they'll do ... but it's possible that they are.


    At 10:32:00 PM on 7/21/2000, Oviraptor said:
    There could be more than just 15 species.. thats just how many they had in Jurassic Park at the time.. Dodgson knew nothing about Site B and there could have been different dinosaurs there that they hadn't introduced to Jurassic Park yet.. and I'm sure there was since it's like that in the novel's.. way more than 15.


    At 9:56:32 PM on 7/21/2000, JP Animal Control said:
    The article I am talking about is under the news fo July 9, 2000.


    At 9:51:23 PM on 7/21/2000, JP Animal Control said:
    I agree TS146, that there was no underwater dinosaur, but the article says underwater MONSTER! Meaning it could be a reptile. Sorry if I sound rude, that is not what I was shooting for. On a totaly diffenrent topic they (meaning Universal) can only make three new dinosaurs that we have not seen in the first two movies, because we have seen 12 species. Lewis Dodgson said to Nedry that he would recieve 1.5 millon dollors more if he got ALL 15 EMBRYOS. That's right 15. I think one of the new flying dinos that we are going to see should be a Quetzalcoatlus. Quetzalcoatlus had a 45 ft. wingspan, and it ate both fish and meat. Scientists beleive that Quetzalcoatlus got it's food by scavenging dead animals- such as the large sauropods. JP Animal Control over and out.


    At 7:39:21 PM on 7/21/2000, TS146 said:
    I dont think Baronyx would be much of a threat to a human because its claws were way to big to attack a person. Most scientists and myself belive it was a fish eater useing its massave claws to scoop up fish and throw them into its jaws. Another thing is that there was NO sea going dino saur in the history of earth. They were reptiles which simply lived during the time of the dinosaurs.Belive me on this I have loved dinosaurs since I was born.The last thing is pteradons attacking people sounds pretty farfetched from my point of view. Maybe if it was defending its nest but not for food. I think they ate fish and maybe small mammals and reptiles.

    Uhhh the only reason Spielberg wanted lots of hunters was lots of deaths. That's another reason the book was better. Only 5 deaths (Carr, Diego, Dodgson, Baselton, King).

    I really don't see a way they could have saved the movie.But if I could think of a beter ending I would say.....I have no idea. It was a bad ending to a bad seaqual.

    This time next year Jurassic Park 3 will be in theaters. All of our questions will be answered. Untill then no news about the film is going to be solid information unless it comes straight from Universal. Take rumors as rumors and talk as talk. We are all J.P. fans here and that what counts. Now I have a question. Do you all think The Lost World would have been better if they had left out the T-Rex in the city suquence. What alternitive endings would you all have had instead?


    At 10:46:43 PM on 7/20/2000, GoldblumRules said:
    UniversalAgent... pretty soon nobody is going to pay attention to you on this board. Admit you were wrong to post all that info and let's move on, OK?


    At 5:58:20 PM on 7/20/2000, Baryonyx said:
    Guess what. I found out why Dodgson wasint in TLW. The reason was that INgen was taken over by someone els. On top of that he knoew that the people woud get the dinoes, so he probobly decided that he was too late. Or he didnt want to have human interfearence eather that or he didn't know about site B.(the movie)


    At 4:42:46 PM on 7/20/2000, UniversalAgent said:
    Digalot, obviously you and alot of others don't even pay attention to alot of my posts. I already said I didn't say whether or not I worked for Universal, other people made the assumption I did. I do have extra time to spend on the computer because of summer, I'm not on all day, another assumption, on average 2-3 hours a day, by fall I will spend about 1 hour a day on the computer.
    As for sources I've already said some of the top news shows and magazines don't reveal their sources otherwise they wouldn't get exclusive news. Also some of the places who do tell their sources many times still tell inaccurate stories.

    So Dig,
    You want them to do it like they did it on the discovery channel? That is ummmmmm sick. How do I put this? You are one sick mofo.


    Oh and Dan, Dig thinks you're going to track us down and kill us.

    I thought The Lost World score was very good, especially for a sequel. It wasn't nearly the score the original was, but I was never expecting it to be. Jurassic Park is one of my top 5 fave Williams soundtracks (and I own everything from Jaws 2 to Amistad).

    I totaly agree with you Indie, and universal agent what would be the harm if you list the sources that told you this info, that is if you made it all up, and what are you doing on this site all day anyway, dont you have a job at universal or somthing?


    At 9:04:16 AM on 7/20/2000, indianajones said:
    I must say the most important part to a movie to me is the story. Second its the special effects and third its the musical score to a movie. If a movie lacks in the story catigory it does not keep you interested. I know I may take some backlash for this but I believe this what The Lost World suffered from. It was based more on action and violence than story. Though The Lost World had better special effects than the Jurassic Park it did not make the movie any better. Jurassic Park has my most favorite score of any movie. John Williams out did himself when he made but The Lost World's score is not that exciting. Its no where engaging as Jurassic Parks. Well thats my two cents on the first Jurassic Park films. I hope Jurassic Park 3 will set the benchmark for how to tell a great story while making it exciting just like Jurassic Park did. My opinion on James Horner composing the score. Is that a rumor? If it is I am extremely excited because the score he done for Titanic was one of the most beautiful I have heard. I can't think of anyone else that I would like to take John Williams place. What do you all think, do you agree or disagree with me.


    At 4:32:47 AM on 7/20/2000, GoldblumRules said:
    OK... Utahraptor, the "scoop" that reported that Johnston was making a "catastrophe film" like a 70s movie was false, if you can recall. So throw that out the window, too. And Universal only JOINTLY owns the rights to JP with Amblin, if even that. Amblin has final say on whether there will be more. And they make a JP film every 4 years right now, which leads me to believe that AT MOST there would be one more film in the series. They cost a lot of dough and take a lot of time to develop. Also, I find it doubtful that Johnston has any desire to continue making the same film over and over again. This is his first sequel and probably his last; he even turned down the Jumanji 2 directing gig, which is a sequel to his own movie. The last time a studio tried to milk the cow like this was Batman & Robin; let's at least hope they don't try this with JP. Most people think The Lost World was already stretching the concept a bit, and they can only come up with so many ideas before it gets really cheesy. For the JP series, that happened once the Rex arrived in San Diego. Rabid JP fans like us may like that stuff, but not the general moviegoing public.

    About Universal Agent, again, I'm sorry buddy but you are continuing to make a fool of yourself. Your story about why it's not a good idea to list sources is weaker than words can say. I could easily post crap like that any day but no website moderator in his right mind, especially Dan on this site, would consider posting it.


    At 3:05:39 AM on 7/20/2000, UniversalAgent said:
    Jurassic Park /// will be more violent than The Lost World: Jurassic Park. The ending they have planned for Jurassic Park /// is similar to the The Lost World in that it leaves the door wide open for a Jurassic Park 4. I mean as soon as I saw the ending for The Lost World I knew there was probably going to be a sequel.


    At 3:03:12 AM on 7/20/2000, Utahraptor said:
    Johnston said TLW was darkerm, and JP3 would be mroe like a 70's catastrophe movie. So it cannot be more gorey. Spielberg does not own the rights tot eh JP franchise. Universal does. So as long as they want more, they'll make more. Crichton already is not involved much (and he's not writing a third oen any time soon.) Kevin Williamson wrote the Scream Trilogy,a nd sicne 2 said thre eis enough. Yet the studio's big wig said if it mad emroe than $X (I forget the number) there will be a Scream4.
    That's how it works. If a boffo smash makes a studio lots of cash, then there's going to be a sequel next year. As long as people apy to see it, any franchise will keep making more. If they come, you will make more. Simple as that. Granted, eventually JPX will not make money, and then it'll end. Until then, expect more and more until they screw it up and people don't make it a success.
    Crichton never made a sequel, and even he said he'd be stupid not to make one for JP. Money. It does a franchise good.


    At 1:48:42 AM on 7/20/2000, Cyberraptor said:
    UniversalAgent, if you wont give us your sources, no one will believe you. Yes some of the stuff you said has been confirmed, but the rest hasn't. And if you wont give sources, we will all think you are lying (which we already do).


    At 1:43:44 AM on 7/20/2000, Mess said:
    Universal Agent, are you sure their trying to get Celin Dion.


    At 1:41:49 AM on 7/20/2000, Mess said:
    4,5,and 6! Were luck their is a 3. I hate to say I was very suprised to see they were making it but then I realized, they could not end the series with TLW. Even though I was just asking for more, TLW was just about the gore. JP had a good plot, stayed some what truthful to te book(so I've heard), and was a over all good movie. Where in the lost world they just through as many people on an island as they could just to watch them die.


    At 1:38:24 AM on 7/20/2000, UniversalAgent said:
    I didn't even think of giving my news to Dan, I thought I'd just post it here for everyone to see right away, if Dan wants to report it on his news page that's fine.
    As far as sourcing stories, sometimes it does no good, the National E. has many sources and at the same time have written inaccurate stories many times along with many other sourced magazines.
    Some of the stuff in my news report has been confirmed by several sources already, so to the people saying I'm making all this up, well you're the one who is being foolish.
    It's not always good to give away your sources. Some of the best News shows and magazines keep their sources secret otherwise they would never get these good stories and exclusive news.
    I will say when Jurassic Park /// is out you will see most of the information I reported was correct.


    At 1:37:41 AM on 7/20/2000, Oviraptor said:
    I don't see JP3 being the last JP movie ... they can always do a prequel to JP.


    At 1:06:21 AM on 7/20/2000, GoldblumRules said:
    Do you honestly think Spielberg would endorse a Jurassic Park IV, V, VI... sorry, he's not THAT GREEDY. I hope anyway. I just don't want them to tarnish a good series. A good idea only goes so far and I don't want this being like a Land of the Lost series except on the big screen.


    At 1:05:41 AM on 7/20/2000, Digalot said:
    no how about some animals doing it like on the discovery channel


    At 1:01:31 AM on 7/20/2000, Oviraptor said:
    also the blood that blood in the waterfall water.. there was alot more gore in TLW than in JP.. which was too much in TLW. what we need too see in JP3 is sex , sex and more sex LOL j/k


    At 12:53:14 AM on 7/20/2000, Oviraptor said:
    yeah the hand and Ray Arnolds arm..


    At 12:48:45 AM on 7/20/2000, Digalot said:
    ya and a hand hanging on a wheel is preety gory


    At 12:14:44 AM on 7/20/2000, Oviraptor said:
    Yeah but when the Rex ate Gennaro it was raining and the blood would wash away from the T-Rex's mouth.. also in TLW you could see Eddie's blood and guts when the Rex's rip him apart.. that was enough gore for it.


    At 12:10:45 AM on 7/20/2000, Oviraptor said:
    True Goldblum but I'm sure Steven would let Joe make another JP movie or 2 and maybe even write the stories if it's good enough for Steven..


    At 12:10:11 AM on 7/20/2000, Mess said:
    I'm not saying I want a lot more gore I'm just saying, if you got riped of a tiolet seat being riped a part in the air don't you think their would be a little blood? I just wanted to see some blood on the rex's mouth or sometink thats all.


    At 12:04:23 AM on 7/20/2000, Oviraptor said:
    Hey if James Horner can't get Celine maybe he can get Nsync or the Back Street boys too sing for the movie.. HAHAHAHAH and make it even more stupid..


    At 12:03:46 AM on 7/20/2000, GoldblumRules said:
    Yeah Oviraptor, Johnston is directing this, but don't forget JPIII was Spielberg's story idea in the first place, and he has been a hands on executive producer. Oh, and Digalot, sorry for the mess-up in communication. The internet is SUCH a good way to communicate, ha? And onto Universal Agent... I'm open to the possibility this report is true (bad grammar excluded), but it would be nice if you could tell us where you got the info. That's the mistake you made. When I post news on the message board, or when I send stuff to Dan to post on the news section (and I've had several actually posted), I always make sure to list my source, so I don't stink of false scoops. While I don't believe JPIII will be a Lost World prequel, the scooper for that did have a source for that info. So... where'd you get the info?


    At 11:58:03 PM on 7/19/2000, Oviraptor said:
    More gore??? JP isn't a monster movie.. what do you want , all the people and dinosaurs .. swimming in a big pool of blood.. is that enough gore for you.. or do you wanna throw in some heads, arms and legs in the pool of blood.


    At 11:53:59 PM on 7/19/2000, Mess said:
    I would actually want more gore, just to make it seem more real. Just like on JP when the lawer gets eatin I would have expected their to be a least a little blood, but their wasn't a drop. So more gore as long as it fits in with the story and makes sence.


    At 10:50:49 PM on 7/19/2000, Oviraptor said:
    yeah I agree Dr. Jones ... dinosaurs never were monsters they were animals.. just like the animals today.. they wouldn't just kill someone for no reason. Only people do that. I'd be more afraid of some cerial killer than I would a dinosaur. I wanna see how a dinosaur would actually act.. and yeah they might kill someone but they'd do it for hunger , territory , etc... so more gore in a JP movie would just suck.. I wanna see more science like from the first JP movie.


    At 10:31:09 PM on 7/19/2000, Oviraptor said:
    Ok universal agent then why post that news in the message board and in these comments than e-mail Dan the news..? maybe you did and he doesn't believe you just like everyone else that comes to this page doesn't...


    At 10:13:09 PM on 7/19/2000, indianajones said:
    About the comment Universal agent made, more blood and violence will not make the third Jurassic Park film any better. We can't forget that dinosaurs were not monsters, they were animals. Meat-eating animals today like eagles and lions are not that vicious. If this film has more people getting eaten by dinosaurs i believe it will take away from the magic of the film. Personally I would like to see a more natural film with the dinosaurrs living in their own natural way. What do you all think? Do you believe that more blood and gore make will make Jurassic Park 3 a better movie?

    Oviraptor, you're the one making assumptions. I never said whether I did or did not for Universal. Where I work is none of your business.

    1, Their are know such things as underwater dinosaurs, their are just dino's that sometimes went in the water.(If Ian ever comes back talk to him about it but try not to get into a fight with him..
    2, Their not nesseceraly (Forgive spelling) going to be on the is land from TLW. Their was rumors about them going back to the first Island.
    3, I have know idea.

    Did he say Celien Dion....WHAT!!! What the hell would she sing about. I'm serious THAT WOULD BE THE STUPIDEST IDEA OF ALL TIME!!!!!! Maybe if they got a actually band (I'm not saying a rock band but something like it) to sing a cool song. But I can just see Celien Dion Sing a song just like the one in Titannic and them showing dinosaurs in the backround. Oh it would be horrible.........

    I'm new here, I have been reading the posts and have a few questions.
    1) will the 'underwater dino' be in a lake, or ocean? if ocean, why would it stay by that island? and when do mosquitos bite underwater dinos?
    2) at the end of the lost world, it seemed to me like the army was going to guard the island from now on, wouldn't someone see a crash?
    3) does anyone know when the teaser poster will be for sale?

    This should help, and yes Jurassic Park /// definitely is a sequel:

    Jurassic Park /// will be the most expensive, longest, and most violent of the Jurassic Park movie series so far. Sam Neil and Jeff Goldblum has already promised to be in this third installment. Steven and others are trying to convince Laura Dern to sign on too.
    James Horner will be doing the score to Jurassic Park ///. Universal has been mildly dissapointed with how the Jurassic Park and The Lost World: Jurrasic Park soundtracks have sold. Jurassic Park did go gold, which is pretty good for a all instrumental soundtrack album. The Lost World: Jurassic Park sold less than Jurassic Park and failed to go gold. So in an effort to try to sell many Jurassic Park /// albums James Horner is trying to get Celine Dion or another famous singer to sing the theme song to this movie. Celine is suppose to be retired, but James is hoping he can talk Celine into singing the theme song to Jurassic Park ///.
    The main dinosaur of this film will be Suchominus which can also be seen in the official logo. However, there are other stars that are slated to be in Jurassic park ///, the pterandons will be as present as the raptors were in the first 2 Jurassic Park films, carnotaurus, and some others.
    In one of the scenes for Jurassic park /// a visitor on the island will be attacked and eaten by the Suchominus. They are trying to cast Nell Carter in this part.
    The script is basically done for Jurassic Park ///, but they are still making minor changes to it. I don't want to give away the specific ending, but let's just say it leaves it wide open for a Jurassic Park 4.

    Who were you referring to as "stupid," digalot?!? If you don't think Spielberg (not Splilberg) is the type of filmmaker to make a climax to a trilogy, let's all think back to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade! That was CERTAINLY the conclusion to a trilogy, if it wasn't I don't know what you would consider to be. Sure, they've been tossing around ideas for an Indy IV for years, but it certainly is a neatly tied up trilogy the way it stands. And despite what you may think the public wants, given the fact a lot of people are already groaning about them making a third JP, he probably doesn't want this series to go on and on and on.

    lets face it splilberg is not the kind of person to make the climax to a trilogy stupid, he normaly would make what the public wants first.
    second there are way to many writers on the story to mak it a stupid story like that.
    third joe johnson said on ciniscape that there would be alot more dinosaurs, including the new one, more flying reptiles, and more plot.
    now this story has none so far exept the flying dinosaur part!!


    At 4:36:14 PM on 7/19/2000, Oviraptor said:
    The plot just sounds stupid.. I mean an airplane crash.. COME ON.. even if it does crash the Coast Guard is gonna be out looking for the plane.. and they might even know where it crashed if the pilots told someone where they was before it crashes..so they'll be there before I dinosaur even see's anyone let alone eat anyone.


    At 4:13:37 PM on 7/19/2000, Oviraptor said:
    Also why would someone that is working on JP3 just come out and tell us the plot.. and everything.. there is the chance he could loose his job because of it..

    I still say it's got a 50/50 chance of being a prequel or sequel...people make news up all the time.

    Just wanted to make sure I made it clear that I don't really consider the members of this site to be film geeks; indeed, it seems made up more of JP geeks and dino geeks (of which both I am included in, proudly). I just hope we can remain mature and not start Star Wars bashing, saying how JP rules and Star Wars drools. Uh-oh, did I just start something?!?

    Not a Star Wars fan at all. I'vr seen something far cooler than a doble edge Light Saber, and I wonder how good those actually were if they stopped using them a genertaion later. As for Suvivoresque JP3, it'd be good to get voted off. Maybe the dinos will vote themsleves (Or species) off the island, and wind up all over the world.
    But for outrunning the Raptors, give the Raptors the money. They're over twice as fast as a human.

    I'm a fan of star wars but I wouldn't consider my self a film geek. I'll see the movie, enjoy it, and want to talk about it when it ends. I was never to excited about any movie until I saw Jurassic Park. It was probably the greats movie I ever seen. And it probably the only movie I actully bought. Every other movie I see in the theater is just wam bam thank you movie I'll probably never see it again. I don't know what this has to do with anything but I just want my movie watching ways and how Jurassic Park changed the way I look at movies.

    I'm a Star Wars fan in the sense that most film geeks are Star Wars fans. While I appreciated The Phantom Menace visually, the story and acting left much to be desired.... Empire Strikes Back remains the most stirring and well-made film over all of the saga. I always felt the JP films didn't recieve the kind of recognition they deserved for the acting. While the characters aren't exactly top notch, the actors did pretty well with the material, most notably Sam Neill, Jeff Goldblum, and Pete Postlethwaite. Compare the acting in The Lost World to that of Phantom Menace or Twister to see what I mean. The JP films are definitely a notch or two above most popcorn films when regarding the acting.

    Dan, I don't think think they are going to play games to see who gets voted off the island, considering that you have herds of dinosaurs wanting you for launch.HEHE. I wish that happened to that surviver show. Run as fast as you can away from the raptors, and we will give you a million bucks.lol

    I'm just wondering are alot of JP fans Star Wars fans also? I've watched the Star Wars films at home, but never went to see the re-released versions and Episode 1.
    JP movies still get me hyped up but Star Wars seems so tired and predictable now, although I'm sure the special effects are worth seeing.

    Mess, Mess, Mess... Yoda could still have trained Obi-Wan. Just because Qui-Gon trained Obi-Wan in the beginning stages of his Jedi-knighthood, it doesn't mean Yoda couldn't have helped out during that time, and Obi-Wan still had to take the "trials" by the end of Episode I. True, Lucas likely didn't have that in mind while he was making ANH, but this is getting pretty nit-picky.


    At 5:52:32 PM on 7/18/2000, Mess said:
    O.K. Goldblumrules so he might have thought he was a great pilot, but how about A new hope when Obi-Wan say's he was trained by yoda but in Phantom Menace he was trained by (I havin't the slites clue how to spell his name) but you no who I'm talking about.

    All I wanted to comment on this is the very end part. That was the most halarious thing I've heard today.


    At 3:50:17 PM on 7/18/2000, GoldblumRules said:
    Actually Mess, while I totally agree about the prequel opinion (I've known from the beginning the chances were dimmer than a burned out light bulb that it would be a LW prequel), the part with Obi Wan in ANH makes perfect sense, because in Phantom Menace, Anakin does not even meet Obi Wan until after the Pod Race sequence... which, without a doubt, proved Anakin's abilities as a "great pilot..."
    Onto JP3, a LW prequel would seriously mess around with the established JP continuity and it would be a totally irrelevant waste of time. Which is why they aren't making one.


    At 3:02:41 PM on 7/18/2000, Mess said:
    I'm glad it's not a prequal. Most movies get screwed up when they make prequal like in star wars where in Anew hope Obi Wan said to luke he met his father when he was a great pilot. But in episode 1 he was a little boy! They would probably just screw up lines and make TLW suck even more.

    Wow... JP3 is not a prequel?!? How can that be?!?


    At 12:28:12 PM on 7/18/2000, Dan said:
    Ian: Agreed, and sometimes I struggle over whether or not to post something.. But then I think back to the San Diego rumor from TLW, and how no one believed it was true.. And of course, it was. So, I like to give people the benefit of the doubt unless the news is glaringly fake (which happens a lot as well).

    I know I'm going to get many people mad at me now, but why is your only big consern what that dino on the logo is??? How can than change the movie, or make it better? The logo has been the only discussion subject for the last 2 weeks! Every comment on the news page turn's in to a logo comment after a few post! I don't want to offend anyone, really, just want to make some people think about that. Thx

    Well one of the problems about _Baryonyx_ is it has no elongated neural spines, the head does looks very much like a _Baryonyx_ (hey ians back BTW)which is probably because they based it off of one because Spinosaurids (_Baryonyx, Spinosaurus, Suchomimus to mention the few you are discusing) Had sorta similiar heads and they never found the whole skull of a _Spinosaurus_, Wait i am acting like i think its a _Spinosaurus_ ;) The reason its most likly a _Spinosaurus_ is mostly from the elongated neural spines. The logo (I believe most of us are convinced its a Spinosaurid except those people who are voting _Megaraptor? lol) 's neural spines are longer then any of the other Spinosaurids other then _Spinosaurus_. Yes it could be a _Suchomimus_ that the 3D people put a biger sail on, Yes it could be a _Baryonyx_ that they decided to put a sail on, but what I am saying is it most likly looks like a _Spinosaurus_ ;).

    And when we read news on Dan's site, remember that not everyone is truthful and that some people will either make up stuff to send to Dan for no particular reason (Maybe they find it amusing to trick people) or maybe they misuderstood somthign that heard. ;), So it would be best advised that we handle all posts with skeptisism, and only take the thngs that we defintly know as our Control, (Directors, people who we know are playing, the Miles script, and other things we defintly know from reliable sources, that means not these anonymous things ;P, and etc..) and the rest of the stuff we read we can compare to it ato see how likly it is. ;) Just a suggestion

    Ugh, on another note, i can't believe that people are about to vote Megaraptor as being the animal in the logo over Suchomimus. Just look at the poll! Plus Baryonyx is in the lead. I'm really torn between Suchomimus and Spinosaurus now.

    to answer your question; I second your opinion of what the movie should be about. JP3 needs to be an intelligent adventure, a movie with many different elements, philosophies from the first book should be included, and it needs to be produced in a style that will help it endure years of viewing- a classic- like Jurassic Park. I'm sure we all agree what JP3 should not be; a clumsy, half-arsed, and blatant attempt to get more of our money. I know its not an easy task for those involved.
    I hope Sam Neill(and Laura Dern, please) has more than just a few lines.

    I really doubt that this bit of info is true. I say this because I'm 100% against the idea that the logo is a Baryonyx. And to answer indianajones' question, there are no underwater dinos, thats just an average description of an ancient marine reptile. Its just like when people are talking about pterosaurs and they say "flying dinos." And in my oppinion, I believe that the "underwater dino" will in fact be the dino in the logo. Whether baryonyx or Suchomimus, these animals stayed relatively close to the water to fish.

    You people keep talking about a new underwater dinosaur. I am by far no proffesional paleontologist but I am positive that there is no such thing as an underwater dinosaur. All dinosaurs discovered so far are terrestrial. (Except for those that evolved into birds. The plesiosaurs and mososaurs that lived in the Mesozoic were not dinosaurs. They were sea going reptiles.

    Thank god its not a prequel cause that would be terible.
    But with this rumored plot how does Grant fit into it all? I think the ship reck idea is o.k but I'd like to see somthing involving Grant, Hamonnd,Malcome,site b and jurassic park,ingen and biosyn. What do you think about the current plot and what do YOU think it should be about?

    OMIGOD.. . . not a prequel? Well, I guess we're back to "TLW: Part 2" as far as jp3 is concerned. But hey, that doesn't mean it can't still be a kickass movie. Either way, I'm just glad the movie's in production. Let's try not to lean on our negative assumptions too hard, until maybe a couple months before the release, guys. (Just anticipating all the whiney comments yet to be posted) ;)
