Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)

All I know is it better not kill the trex . That will make the movie unwatchable for me. The trope is tired and dead. The Rex better show up in the water battle and not get killed off to show how big and scary this new dino is but it might cause that’s how every jp movie past the lost world has done it

100%. The new T-Rex looks great, but that isn't enough. It's needs to have some awesome moments of its own, not be a bystander, and not get beaten up by the mutant or another dinosaur.

Ideally, it has no less than two meaningful scenes, kills someone, and isn't belittled in any way. IMO.

yes. this is pretty much the best rex we have seen in awhile.

Perhaps the Rex puts that mutant thing out of its misery and remains the hero of the franchise?

Hopefully one day someone has the conviction to properly start over. At this point, I'm open to a new interpretation of the original novel. Or even a bare-bones sequel to the novel, with a gritty survival plot with just a single "big bad" T-Rex and some raptors as the antagonists. Something that feels like what Prey did for The Predator franchise; not necessarily a prequel, but a similar starkness.

Agreed. I've always thought there's a lot of potential for cool stories set between JP and TLW, or TLW and JP///. Separate stories that add to the existing canon without retconning anything.

Some of the things I can think of off the top of my head:

-BioSyn sends a team to Nublar hours after the accident to try and retrieve the Barbasol can or retrieve DNA samples from the lab. They meet an InGen team sent to combat anyone who might take advantage of the accident and the predictable chaos ensues.

-InGen sends a team to Nublar a year after the accident, to determine whether the lysine contingency worked or not. Perhaps this is preceeded by an unknown animal attack in a nearby region of Costa Rica, which motivates InGen to confirm whether their creations are contained and dead/dying or alive and well and spreading, and if so, get an inventory of assets.

-InGen's illegal cloning on Sorna after the events of TLW.

-A live action adaptation of Trespasser. This would be a good fit for the gritty survival plot you mention, with just a T-Rex and some Velociraptors.

I wouldn't be opposed to it, but I'm not sure they'd go that route as a T-Rex has already been involved in two final fights in the past three movies. Three times altogether. It would be a predictable outcome and something they'll likely avoid this time around. Then again, I'm bringing logic into the conversation about movies that have been anything but logical lately, so who knows

What I really don't want is the T-Rex, should it battle the mutant at the end, to be helped by another dinosaur. The JW final fight was over the top but I can stomach it. The JWD final fight felt very anticlimactic with the Therizino randomly rocking up. I don't know why they couldn't give Rexy her moment to shine in an epic rematch. It would've made the prologue much more meaningful IMO.

Agreed. Show the T-Rex the proper respect, it's the franchise logo after all!

NGL, every one of your rough storyline ideas has me more excited than what we're getting. That might speak more to my age though, and reverence for the first and by extension, 2nd film.

I pray for that honeslty

 

[crows]

You’ve been gone for awhile.

I had nothing to say movie wise lol
nothing to joke about.

 

[davejames]

Well that was underwhelming. I had semi-high hopes for this with the return to an island adventure, but nothing about this seems particularly fun or thrilling. And the CG dinosaurs don't inspire the least amount of wonder anymore. They're just another CG creature chasing people around in a scifi summer blockbuster.

Not sure how familiar ya'll are with The Ringer's content, but this is a fun trailer reaction discussion:

Yikes. Not people coping and saying the dinosaurs in jp were never dinosaurs to begin with but we’re always mutants and abominations.

Look I know they the movie states multiple times they aren’t accurate and have frog dna in them but at the end of the damn day it’s still a damn dinosaur. Or a depiction of one at the very least

I mean if you showed me a pic of the trex from jp the first thing I wouldn’t say is “ oh yea that’s a mutant”

The hurdles people go through to rationalize things. lol. Seriously

“Monsters with Dino skin”is what I’m seeing floating around.
That makes zero sense

I think this is going to win the summer but can we quit it within the garbage quips whenever theres danger!

Who do we blame, Whedon or Gunn?

As much as I enjoyed Deadpool/Wolverine, Hollywood will definitely have learned the wrong lessons from it.

Yeah, that is such a niche area where all that actually works. It's also helps to have the 4th wall barrier down which is again so unique to a handful of things. The Office did it well, Deadpool does it well...what else?

Ferris Bueller did it well.

I'm not sure if this was directed at me specifically, but I'm definitely not "coping" or excusing anything. I certainly agree that I want more "true" Dinosaurs than "mutants" or "prototypes" in this movie, but I was just caveating my desire for "true" Dinosaurs comes with the understanding and acknowledgement that the "true" Dinosaurs in Jurassic Park were never "true" to begin with.

I'd rather see the "traditional" Dinosaurs that were established by the original movie in this new movie than anything else, and I hope we see plenty of the T-Rex, Dilophosaurus, Raptors, etc.

All I'm saying is that, in an established fictional world where Scientists have recreated Dinosaurs from DNA fragments and have undeniably gone through several stages and taken undeniable scientific liberties in the pursuit of this task, I don't find "mutant" or "prototype" Dinosaurs to be a stretch or canon-breaking in any way.

Hmmm? No. That wasn’t directed to you at all didn’t no you commented on the subject.

I was scrolling Tik tok comments of all places

And the comments were that “these aren’t dinosaurs they were akways monsters and freaks of nature”

Which isn’t true imo. Yes they aren’t really 100 percent dinosaurs but they aren’t mutant aliens either. They even said the book states that they aren’t Dinosaurs but mutants which is false. They state they aren’t accurate and that’s it.

Also many of the comments fail to realize that for that time those dinosaurs were as accurate as you can get. It’s the same thing for retro dinosaurs that were standing up right. That was the knowledge at the time

Both? lol. I like Gunn but yea I wasn’t a fan of gotg until the third movie which won me over cause big shock it had big emotion and less stupid jokes and ended on an extremely bitter sweet note
