In other breaking news, water is wet.

 

[Boom]

She's my least favorite person.

Hey the point is she tried... Wait a minute.

 

[psylockolussus]

I agree with her.

I watch a lot of science videos.

Oh wow, looks like it will be making it's release date after all.

 

[Gothamsknight]

fingers crossed this is good!

Gareth really does work fast.

It would be so much fun to have a good Jurassic film. Curious for that trailer to get a sense of it. Worried about what stupid plotline is going on, cause that seems unavoidable to some extent.

I feel like this is the same as asking for a non-polarizing Star Wars film.

Hearing word that Spielberg is heavily involved on this one as producer this time as a form of damage control, according to several JP Youtubers.

I was surprised how quickly they wrapped this up, but then I remember 80% of these films is post-production.

Universal and WB are going to be playing chicken, who will back off first?

His shooting length seems inversely proportional to the feeling of watching the result.

More like WB, Universal and Marvel. F4's out later that month. I'm betting F4 gets moved to November or August.

 

[:eek:]

Doubt Disney will move F4 to November when they already have two (potential) box office juggernauts in Zootopia 2 and Avatar 3 scheduled for the holiday season. But I suppose it could replace Blade

That's what I was thinking. No way in hell is Blade out next year. They won't rush it.

Which is interesting if true because you wouldn't think they'd care as much about quality since the last three all hit a billion but it's good they're taking people's thoughts about Fallen Kingdom and especially Dominion into consideration.

According to said reports, its because he doesn't want it ending up like what happened with Transformers under Michael Bay.

I think the split between the fans and the studio/creators of this franchise is due to a debate on genre. The studio and people making these movies clearly intend it to be an action-adventure series with mild horror elements, while the fandom really wants it to be just straight-up horror. And I get it; the horror moments are so well done that they just want the movies to be more like that. Except they tried that with Jurassic Park 3 (still the worst of the original trilogy with Fallen Kingdom being the worst of newer one) and it failed. I'd say Lost World did the best with balancing both IMO.

Hell, the teaser trailer for Lost World alone had me running out of the theater screaming when I saw it with Star Wars:

I think the horror element was a big part of what made the original (and to some extent The Lost World) so memorable. The parts that had a T-Rex or Velociraptor felt intense and scary and you were kinda gripping your armchair watching it. I never got that vibe from any of the Jurassic World movies at all. The first one felt very triumphant and action/adventure. The second one I guess tried to do some horror in the second half? But it fell really flat for me. When you have a dinosaur described as the perfect organism and killing machine lurking on a statue with our humans hiding just beneath it and the dinosaur can't smell them, it just ruins my suspension of disbelief.

Yes, and I think that applies to other properties too. They think that bigger is better. The example that comes to mind is Universal with their monster universe. They did that Mummy movie with Tom Cruise, big blockbuster... it didn't work. Then Blumhouse does The Invisible Man, smaller scale, intimate, less bombastic... it worked.
Horror has been a genre that keeps doing well year after year. People seem more responsive. I don't understand why they don't give horror and suspense a chance in these movies.

Well there's a movie coming out called Primitive War, essentially Predator with Dinosaurs set during Vietnam, and conceptually it sounds awesome but they're going to ruin it.

Sounds like an Asylum movie.
