    I lost the plot with JP after 3. The writers can't hold a good story at all. All hail JP1 were T-Rex was king and it had a great story. I only want them to make JP4 if Rex gets revenge on fish eater. If that does't happen then they have recked the serious.

    I don't think they have even hired writers, producers, or directors yet.

    That's not going to happen. Even with Jaws, while when they made the fourth they did ignore the third entirely, they didn't go and try to make another third and pretend the first third hadn't happened. Besides, JP3 was not as bad as you all make it out to be. If there isn't goint to be a unique title for JP4, then it will be Jurassic Park 4. I doubt they will go the way of Jaws and call it Jurassic Park: The Revenge....but you never know.

    At times like these, let us reflect on the immortal words of Lucy Lawless. Whenever you see a mistake like this, a wizard did it.

    I don't think the Pteranadons at the end of TLW was supposed to be real. It was added for ILM, who worked hard on ti but it was cut. So, it's like Speieberg's TV reflection image. Not part of the movie world's continuity.

    Still, the point is, if any large dinosaur or flying dinosaur had attacked the people on the bridge of the ship, there would have been damage to the room itself, yet there was none. Keep in mind that at the beginning to JP3, after they attacked, the boat was all torn up.
    And the pteronadons were not flying away from Isla Sorna at the end of TLW.

    I don't know for sure, but I don't thing pteronodons would of attacked prey as big as humans anyway.
    As for the pteronodons in the aviary in JP3....did you notice there was no glass in the dome of the aviary? There was just an empty frame. They could have left whenever they wanted to....they didn't need the door to be left ajar.

    Actually I was thinking that it possibly could've been the Pteranadons... or the Pterydactols. Whichever did in the party on the boat at the beginning of JP3. But that kind of confused me. No one cared that the Pterydactols were loose at the end of TLW. And then there's such a big threat at the beginning of JP3... but wait! How could the Pteranadons have eaten the people on the boat at the beginning of JP3 if they weren't released from the aviary until later on in JP3... were the Pterydactols... the ones that no one was threatened by and were in awe of at the end of TLW the ones who did it? That was kind of confusing to me. I'm sure you're more confused now too.


    At 10:28:00 PM on 12/22/2004, raptor2000 said:
    Or whoever thought up that scene just wasn't thinking straight.
    Or maybe at the time they filmed that scene they had planned on there being raptors, baby rexes or some other smaller carnivores on the boat too and they later decided to just have baby t-rex on helicopter, one adult t-rex, and that's it.

    Steering-Wheel Guy: "What?!? There's a dinosaur attacking my crew?!?! I care not! I must steer this boat into dock properly no matter the cost! D'you hear me, you vengeful beast?!?! NO MATTER THE COST!!! THE COST MATTERS NOT!!!.....Ah, crap, I gotta pee. I'll just leave this crappy rubber hand here on the wheel so they'll think I sacrificed myself for this stupid ship."
    (Steering-Wheel Guy wanders off. WHAM! The ship SLAMS into the dock!)
    Steering-Wheel Guy: "Aw hell, I missed the bowl!"

    We'll chalk it up as a logic error, Drive.

    Actually I don't think it's a continuity error but I'm not sure the technical term for it, so that's what I called it.

    The Lost World book was awesome. After reading it I had great hopes for the movie, but was somewhat disappointed in it.

    I mean seriously, the book was badass.

    Also, I honestly believe that the crew being killed on the boat was a continuity error. Though originally I figured it was setting up for a sequel, I now think it was just Spielberg's way of putting the details into his work. Spielberg's movies are full of continuity errors, something you wouldn't expect from such a high profile director. Some of them are obvious, some are not.

    Every director makes mistakes, but some of them are common sense, like the boat's crew on TLW.

    I still don't understand how the T-rex got to the crew members in the bridge of the ship without tearing the bridge to pieces, and how some guy held on so tight to the stearing wheel when he was getting eaten that it left his hand behind.

    >They should redo JP's end

    Um, that should be JP3's end. I don't know what happened to the three. Perhaps it was embarrassed to be associated with the ending, and left in disgrace?

    TLW Book was better overall, but TLW Movie ending was better than the book's, which seemed to channel JP Movie, as one critic said.

    I've read it multiple times and I think it is infinately better than the movie. So did most of the critics.

    The Lost World book sucked! It sucked compared to JP the movie, JP the book, and TLW the movie. Those of you who say it should've been closer to the book, read it, it sucked. Not Crichton's finest hour.

    I agree. They shoulda either not made it, or extended the deadline and rewrote the script, thought of a new story, etc.

    I'd never thought of the dinos as "bad guys," raptor. But that makes total sense.

    I don't disagree with the fact that Joe Johnston put out the best movie he could with the script he had - sadly much like David Fincher's work on "Alien 3."

    All I'm saying is that they should not have made it, considering the resources they had, which sucked (script mainly, but no time to rehash it also).

    They should redo JP's end, and give it one. A good 30 extra minutes of proper dino dino fights, and dino military men fights. I mean, why have all those soldiers, and all those weapons, vehicles, etc, just to see no dinos at all?

    JP, I think, is fine as it is. I would love to see a remake of TLW though. It would be nice to have at least Jeff Goldblum back as Ian. Other than that, recast. New Sarah, New Kelly (a white one, so it will actually look like she is Ian's daughter), take out Nick since he wasn't in the book. They can keep the same actor for Eddie, he was pretty good. However, in the book he was killed by raptors, not T-rexs. It would be really cool if they could get the guy back who played Dodgson in the first JP movie for TLW. So yeah, as long as they recast at least some of the rolls, and this time stick closer to the book, I would love to see a TLW remake. Like I said though, JP is fine as it is. I don't really want to see an R-rated Jurassic Park. Just read the book. And I don't want them to remake JP3 either, because I think they made it the best they could with the script and story they had. Not much you can do there except make a completely different movie.


    At 6:46:44 PM on 12/20/2004, DarthRex said:
    I wonder if, down the road, they'll want to remake Jurassic Park and The Lost world... almost like they did with King Kong (except no Jeff Bridges). That would be a cool way to get the movies closer to the books. They could even make them less kiddie... more horror/suspense films. The only problem with that is that we love the actors in the originals... it'd be kind of hard to let go of that aspect and we'd probably go into the theatre biased as to whether we would like it or not (likely not).

    True, there should have been only one sequel, The Lost World, and they should have stuck closer to the book for it so it would actually be good. I think JP3 was better than the movie version of TLW though.
    The only thing I didn't like is how they portrayed as "bad guys" now instead of animals, as Dr. Grant said in the first JP, "Just doing what they do."

    "we don't want them to pump out another shittier one that will scar not only the franchise even more"

    Am I the only person in the world that completely believes that JP3 sucked ass?!

    No really. I love Jurassic Park, and it was cool to get a new cast, and have Sam Neill back. But seriously, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

    I hope there is no JP4, because that will completely bastardize the series, when in truth there should only have been one sequel, and I'm not even so sure about that.

    I love dinosaurs too, but they killed it. Hardcore.

    Dinosaurs as soldiers idea sucks.

    If there is another JP at all, it should have the magic of the first two movies, which portrayed the Dinosaurs as animals, unlike the third movie which had no story at all and was more of a dumb horror flick.

    If they make that script, they'll scar the audience. For life. People will fear dino soldiers coming or them.

    You just stated it yourself. There's plenty of oppertunity for other stuff to happen.

    You obviously don't understand what closure means.


    At 3:33:58 PM on 12/18/2004, raptor2000 said:
    What do we need closure on? Either we have two islands with dinosaurs living on them that is restricted to the public, or we have one island with dinosaurs living on it that is restricted to the public and one devistated island that is just starting to have plants growing on it again.

    I'd rather have a really crappy 4th movie that has closure for the series, then not to have any closure at all.

    >>But I don't feel the time is right until the JP series is put to rest - I imagine most of you feel the same.<<

    Not if the franchise is going to keep going downhill. If JP4 is going to bear any resemblence whatsoever to that bullshit script that was posted a few monthes ago, then the series needs to have been sealed by JP3. We don't want JP to end up like Jaws...a great movie in itself but scarred by crappy sequels. TLW and JP3 weren't THAT bad, so we don't want them to pump out another shittier one that will scar not only the franchise even more, but put another bad mark on Spielberg, Neill, or Goldblum's record.

    At 5:37:38 PM on 12/17/2004, raptor2000 said:
    Not really a suprise. But I still consider that script to be a fake and I wouldn't consider this affirming or disaffirming. I don't doubt Goldblum hasn't been contacted yet but that in no way means he won't be in JP4.
