Jurassic Park 4 [Jurassic World] (no spoilers)

[Ultimatedinoking]

I don't.

[stargatedalek]

honestly I find it no crazier or less realistic than most of the current JP dinosaurs

[Ultimatedinoking]

It looks like something syfy would make.

If you take into context the age at which the original JP was made, they're not bad for the time (1993). Of course they look dated now.

The only shame is that they haven't attempted to update the design at all in light of recent discoveries, but that's been discussed to death already so I won't go down that road again.

Their accurate for their time. I'm tired of people going on about jp being "inaccurate" it gave us 90's dinosaurs. Stop nagging about bald raptors.

Where as this thing is a syfy monster.

It is more accurate than most other Jurassic Park or Jurassic World creatures, although really it shouldn't have been in Jurassic World.

I have a feeling that this "Diabolus rex" may turn out to be the downfall of the movie...but we'll see.

sure they were accurate for the 90s when Jurassic Park was made, but Jurassic World is NOT a 90's movie, and it should NOT be treated as such
they are ALL science fiction monsters here in 2014

Yes, they are. Like I've said Jurassic World was ruined from the moment the director said "no feathers".

I imagine a few of you may not be old enough to appreciate how powerful nostalgia can be when it comes to convincing people to part with their money

Accurate? What is it even suppose to be?!?!?

[stargatedalek]

^thats why its MORE accurate, it isn't messing up any real animal, its entirely fictional so by definition it can't be inaccurate


heres my thoughts on the issue...

no feathers =/= bad movie
feathers = better movie

As in it looks more like a real dinosaur than the others (for example it looks quite similar to Australovenator or Megaraptor), minus feathers of course.

[amargasaurus cazaui]

The concept of having feathers has precious little bearing in the end for the vast majority of the public wether the movie works or not.In fact most movie goers would prefer the dinosaurs served up as the traditional style dinosaurs they are familiar with. For most of the general public the idea of feathered dinosaurs is still a new theory open to debate and they are not going to be bothered by a lack of feathered dinosaurs.
   Now if you really wish to get to the bottom of where the movie took a downward direction, in my own opinion it would be in once more retaining Jack (lets create species) Horner. Suppose he uses the movie to try and underline his beliefs again...only this time his visuals are scenes that place the tyrannosaurus in a scavenger role. Or perhaps he proceeds to demonstrate that Triceratops/torosaurus are the same animal, or that all species of pachycephalosaurus are the same species at different ages. Couldnt happen? Go back and watch the other movies again .
     Maybe we will get to see him feed Bob Bakker to another tyrannosaurus rex though....that was perhaps the most amusing scene of the movies lol 

[stargatedalek]

I may not subscribe to tyrannosaurus being entirely scavenging, but it couldn't hurt to show some more varying behavior
as for the pachycephalosaur theory, I have to confess I do subscribe to it myself, but I understand its merely a theory (whereas Horner seems to think hes proven it)

[Saurian]

One guy in JPlegacy forum, found this from artists portofolio who worked in Jurassic Park and Jurassic World.

For me doesnt look like a freaking mutant. Looks like Australovenator with Masiakasaurus like.

this is not d rex,its old art  -  http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php/11644-COROSAURUS-sculpt

[tyrantqueen]

I'm not sure to be relieved or worried, because the real version could look worse

[Gwangi]

If that was what it ended up looking like I wouldn't be that upset, it's just a generic theropod.

[Patrx]

I'm glad that's not it - from the looks of that thread, this design has some kind of absurd and hideous splitting face:



It certainly doesn't belong in a Jurassic Park movie.
