Jurassic Park IV
 

Otherwise known as "absoltue shit"

Is there any vested interest in even seeing something this shitty? I don't see how this can make any money.

You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have T-Rexes with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!

Yeah, see, what you don't realize is that we're not looking at Jurassic Park IV. We're looking at Dino Riders, and you better fucking recognize we're gonna see dinosaurs with lasers on their heads.

What the hell? I thought they were going to just stick with the god damn 'dino's rampage through the fucking city on a massive scale' type plot, which still wouldn't have been all that great, but it's bound to be better than this dino soldier crap now.

This series stop have stopped at the Lost World. Anything that comes after that is just a bunch of bullshit thrown together.

Wow...I can't believe what they are going to put together for the film. And yes, Winter Storm I totally agree with you.

This outline is ages old (and AFAIK has been declared as a hoax since a long time). I still don't believe it.

It really should have stopped after the first one, as The Lost World is pretty much just a bunch of bullshit thrown together too.

Thank goodness there are still the books left to preserve Jurassic Park's dignity.

JP IV has been rumored milling around for a few years. Infact there was a big rumor way back in 03 or 04 that it was supposed to hit the theatres the same time as Star Wars Episode III and Indiana Jones 4 (and we we all know that didn't happen).

I wouldn't doubt they'd be bringing this back for a 4th one, but I don't know how much more material from the first book they didn't use yet. If you remember the first 3 movies all used material from the first book. I just can't figure out what else is left. :|

That said, it'll probably be horribly done.

Much akin to the bear, the T-Rex should have been no joke. But now it is. ;_;

Oh, nevermind. A T-Rex armed with lasers should be a lil bit money.

Remember the can of frozon dino DNA that was covered with mud in Jurassic Park I, shortly after that fat guy was killed? That was never followed up on. They could(if JPIV should become reality) follow up on that.

Well, even if they had stuck a little closer to the Lost World novel the movie could have been better. And III... Never saw it...

Seeing Jurassic Park in the theater was one of the high points in my cinematic life. JP2...not so much. 3? Barf.

I am getting tired of companies throwing out as many as sequels as possible in an attempt to clean up on merchandising. Its ruining the whole idea. The first Jurassic Park was a monumental film and the last 2 have done very little to further the series. It has done one thing well. It has turned the series into a dinosauric pile of shit.

I am not expecting much of IV.

I thought this was an old (old) rumour that never got confirmed or anything like it. Until something get properly confirmed I would write this off as someone talking nonsense.

Tagonist --
JP2 was crap, but JP3 was very good; I enjoyed it thoroughly. I suggest you give it a glance, as it is somewhat reminiscent of #1 =)

While I loved JP1, I found JP2 to be utter garbage. It just skull fucked the book and left it a steaming pile of donkey doo. Actually, I hate JP2 so much that I like JP3. It's retarded, but it's about dinosaurs chasing humans, without Jeff Goldbloom, which is a massive plus in my book.
(I have no movie taste whatsoever, which also means that I'd like to see a movie about dinos with cybernetic implants and shit, but perhaps not under the name Jurrasic Park...)

The reason that JP3 was better than JP2 was because, in some twisted way, it followed the Lost World novel better. I don't know why or how, but it did.

The Lost World: JP2 was a gigantic problem in my life when I was in 6th grade (or whenever it came out), because I basically worshiped Jurassic Park after 3rd grade. I loved the Lost World novel, and was totally hyped when they were going to make a movie. Then I saw it, and my world crashed down :(. I bitched for 3 years about it.

Also, I think the moviemakers have Jurassic Park confused with The Land Before Time. If they make a fourth one, that will confirm my theory.

I really, REALLY don't understand why they deviated from the Lost World novel, this book practically read like Crighton had written it AFTER an existing movie, not the other way round. Especially that quota-black kid that as far as I recall was not black in the novel. That was so... Ugh... I dunno. Unecesseary political correctness...

But then again, as cool a movie as Jurassic Park was, it would have been lightyears cooler if they had stuck closer to the novel. As I recall (it's been ages since I've read it) in the novel the reason they lost control was because of the dinosaurs just being more adaptable then they expected and the whole "life will find a way" thing that let them bust their cages, whereas in the movie you had to have a human causing all that.
Sheesh, now I want to go and read that bloody book again...

Haha, I love Dr. Evil!

As for the movie, I'm not really very interested. Only the first one was good. The rest was just the same formula over again. Also, the plot doesn't look very original. Dinosaucers came first:

Because they went to Site B. The "facility" that was off limites to public, and the dinosaurs went nuts and turned into thier own natural habit. Probably the most interesting part in JPIII was being face to face with a Velociraptor(where it looked like it was just a "head" in a glass case).

Ah, that's right. It's been a lo~ong time since I watched the movies or read the books :eagletear:.

I still find it really insulting that Spielberg would go to the trouble of requesting/suggesting that Crichton write the sequel -- only to completely rewrite it and use the book as a 'loose outline' when they made the film version.

So it would seem that continuing from the Can of DNA idea was considered. The second paragraph indicates that IV is indeed gonna suck >_>.
