Rogue One director Gareth Edwards will now direct the next film.

‘Jurassic World’: Gareth Edwards Tapped To Direct New Movie For Universal And Amblin

This movie will be a completely new story/reboot

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Excellent choice of director. As one of the few people who mostly loved Dominion (despite severely disliking the first two Jurassic World films), the one thing I wish the film had focused more on was how humans coexisted with dinosaurs. Much of the first act was devoted to that theme before veering into a completely different direction. I hope that whatever ideas Edwards has are focused around that theme.

And David Koepp is returning too.

So its going to be dreary, colorless, and stretch about 10 minutes of Dinosaur action over about 3 hours while constantly antagonising the audience by pretending they're about to see some dinosaur action, at least based on who they're getting to direct it. Talk about the wrong director for the job. I don't really like Jurassic World, and the sequels are worse, but this does not seem like an upgrade.

Maybe they can just reboot the last few movies away and go back to basics, its not like the "dinosaurs in the real world" ever made sense. A single redneck with an AK-47 could kill a T-Rex, and modern Earth in general is not set up to sustain 99% of dinosaurs. The fact that a JW sequel treated dinosaurs surviving, much less propagating, in the modern US when set free was almost as stupid as the plot of the horrible clone girl (who is directly responsible for dozens of deaths because they released the dinosaurs because they're "just like her" or whatever).

Just do a full reboot, bring us back to one park, which hasn't opened to the public yet and things go to hell. They're never going to surpass the original Jurassic Park film anyway, so they might as well just go back to the beginning and spin off new stories from there, hopefully with a lead who is at least more charismatic then Chris Pratt.

Biggest problem with the Jurassic Park films was the humans being ridiculously underequipped. Like in JP1, where they had M-16's. The M-16 fires the 5.56mm round, which is considered inadequate for deer hunting in some states (it's based on the .223, which was created for small pest animals). And in JW (JP4), where they had a civilian bird with a minigun on it, as opposed to... I don't know, an AH-64 Apache? Even without its explosive armaments, its 30mm cannon would be far more adequate against an Indomitable-us whatever that thing was.

I know! They made an entire movie to set up dinos in the real world, because that was the story the director really wanted to make. And what do they do? Drop everyone back at an isolated park. And the problem to solve was locusts, so they could have removed the escaped dinos entirely!

 

[Oddish]

anyone that says 5.56/.223 is inadequate for deer hunting, out of their mind or can't aim or is compensating. I've heard people like that that think anything less than a 12ga slug is inhumane, and yet somehow bowhunters manage to keep food on their tables.

I don't hunt (I'm not fond of venison), so I don't know personally, I just read that some states ban it. I personally would think that bullet weight is a factor: 5.56/.223 rounds range in weight considerably. A 55-grain round might be a poor choice, but a 68 or 77 would get the venison quite nicely.

arrows have way more mass than bullets, and are designed for penetration not trauma.

Not to mention the heroine and lead hero sacrificing themselves on some futuristic platform.

They'll likely throw in a kid or two to get that younger demographic onboard.

My vote would still be for a period, as faithful-as-reasonably-possible adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's novel The Lost World, which has yet to have a really definitive screen version, IMO, using the Jurassic series' CG assets and maybe even musical themes. They could call it Jurassic Park Presents: The Lost World! Yep, that wouldn't confuse people at all.

Anyhow, here's an excellent analysis of the often problematic thematic implications of how screen adaptations have depicted the native peoples of Doyle's Lost World. (That said, I think the characters' treatment of the land's natives in the novel itself hold up fairly well.)

With the director and the writer behind this, it has a lot of potential. I'm curious to see what the new direction they're going to take is. I'm hope they keep going from where the World movies left off and still have the humans and dinos trying to coexist, that's a really fun idea and my only real complaint about Dominion was that we didn't get enough of it.

As that kid said to Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Last Action Hero", you don't die until the grosses go down. The same can be said of a franchise.

 

[JD]

That's an interesting cast.

You know what....
I'm down for more. The best Jurassic movie is still the OG, but the others have always entertained me. Some more than others. I will say this.... Jurassic World did one thing quite well, and that's (in a not subtle way) working with the theme of the novel that people want what they expect, not what's real. In the original novel, John Wu has a long talk with Hammond about going back to drawing board and remake the dinosaurs because they are fast and agile creatures, not the lumbering slugs from movies. Remember, the novel was from 1990. Having Wu being the one that created a dinosaur to cater to the wishes of the crowd, was something I thought was quite clever. If, again, on the nose.

So yeah, more dino entertainment for me is a good thing. It doesn't have to be cinema to be fun.

Ok, if Jurassic Park 7 features Jigsaw using Dinosaurs in his games I'll definitely watch it.

I'm only familiar with Joel McHale, which may or may not be a good thing. There was buzz the other day that Rupert Friend was in talks to be in the film, too, so I imagine well get some more recognizable faces.

The bug swarms didn't have much to do with dinosaurs. I would have given the bugs their own, stand alone movie.

I just realized today that the new animated series sequel to Camp Cretaceous dropped last week. Set 6 years later, Chaos Theory sees Darius tracking the dino that killed one of his friends from Camp.
