Jurassic Park call-backs in Jurassic World: Dominion (Prologue)

[DinoToyForum]

You may remember I compiled lists of Jurassic Park call backs and visual nods in Jurassic World (http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=3497) and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=6532.0).

I noticed a few more visual call-backs in the recent JW Dominion prologue clip so I've decided to start a list of call-backs etc for the third JW instalment. These are things that jumped out to me and I think they were intentional, but feel free to disagree. I'm not adding a spoiler tag to this thread so please watch the clip before you go any further.

If you notice any other call backs or visual nods flag please them and I can add them to the list. I have only included Jurassic Park references here.

1. A distant view of sauropods exiting a lake, one waist-deep, the skyline visible in the distance, the ground visible in the foreground, the sauropods are striding to the right, a flock of birds/pterosaurs are in the scene.


2. An apex predator ( ), centred in the frame, backlit by a projector.


3. Two children lying on their bellies under a car, screaming for their lives, under attack from a T. rex whose foot is visible in the background.


4. Oblique view of a T. rex footprint in wet mud pointing to the right.

Not visual but the Giganotosaurus sounds similar to the Indominus rex, which had Giganotosaurus DNA in its makeup (I believe this was shown in FK if I recall correctly, but it was very much a thing on the original JW viral site as well).

+1 to what @GojiraGuy1954 mentioned.

True, but the T. rex stopping and roaring dramatically has become such a staple of all these films it no longer seems necessary to point it out. It's not a call back so much as it is just what T. rex does in this series.
