Stupid stupid stupid. Genetically modified dinosaurs? Come on... just being a dinosaur is good enough. I'd rather see a realistic 'what if' scenario rather than this scifi BS.

you know the dinosaurs in the original jurassic park were genetically modified also, right? and that movie did just fine.

But with the intent of being as close to the original as possible. This trailer makes it sound like some asshat was trying to make the dinosaurs smarter or something.

The original JP was about altering the dinosaurs to be more crowd friendly.

The new JP is an extension with some showing even domestication.

Some scientist goes off and creates a WHOLE NEW dinosaur. That is the premise. A new dinosaur we have no idea if safe or not for it's captivity / habitat.

Apparently, it's not safe for it.

When i saw those Raptors chase the guy on the bike guess what scene from another movie i thought immediately of?

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal skull when there's the big chase on the edge of the cliff and a boatload of monkeys drop into the that one vehicle and start attacking that crazy bitch....yes i went there with a comparison.

I read the books more than once a long time ago. I don't think they were modified for crowd friendliness.

They did fill missing sequence gaps with amphibian DNA.

They don't have any stated reason for spending the time and resources to create a new dinosaur. It just seems silly.

they also genetically modified the dinosaurs to all be female.

that is more for "crowd control" rather than "crowd friendly".

but we all know that didn't work out ... "nature finds a way".

Do you understand theme parks constantly try to create new attractions or does that get in the way of grammar correction here?

In that case, it wouldn't even have to be a dinosaur. Rather, it would be combining traits of species we already have a better understanding of.

If zoos aren't doing that for public attractions, JP shouldn't be doing it.

It just seems silly.

That... seems to be exactly what they are doing.
Making a new dinosaur that is, in fact, a hybrid.

And zoos currently are not doing it because our understanding of genetics at that level is extremely immature.

Geneticists/scientists have, unless I am mistaken, created new species of bacteria, essentially hybrids.
Mankind is stupid enough to tinker with things we shouldn't. If we could actually create dinosaurs from imperfect genetic material, you can bet your ass at some point, someone would create a hybrid.

Hybrid animals exist in nature already, and breeders sometimes breed pairs for that purpose (e.g. ligers et all). That's really the best we can do for the time being, mess around with species that are already genetically compatible. I highly doubt mankind could hold back in that itch to outdo nature once we have a better understanding and technology. We'll create brand new crops from scratch once we have the ability, I guarantee it.
Whether anyone will be successful with creating a species that can survive the test of time, and if deemed important, breed genetically perfect offspring, only time will tell.

Saw the new trailer in front of It Follows. Looks freaking awful; will be skipping this one.

Most everything that comes out of Hollywood these days sucks total shit.
I forgot what thread I was in and thought he was talking about It Follows. He was, of course, talking about Jurassic World.

RLM liked It Follows.

Pretty sure I remember them talking about the raptors in the first book and how they were too fast for crowds to appreciate so they wanted to make them slower.

I am very excited for this. #3 was terrible ("Allen!" said the raptor), but I am 99% confident that this one will be better than the 3rd, so I'm all good. Plus I like that they've actually gone ahead with the park and we're seeing it after opening.

Opening $204.5 million in USA, $511.8 million worldwide, highest-grossing global opening ever. 2nd largest US opening ever. I'll be seeing it. Almost twice the numbers expected.

They revised the numbers to $208.8 US - making it the biggest US opening ever and $524.1 worldwide - also biggest.

It was pretty likable. It has some flaws, but it was entertaining and better than the last two sequels.

RT critics gave it 71% and I would agree that the movie is a 7/10 overall.
