I've been pretty hyped for this movie since it was first announced back in 2002 I think. I've been following this movie for quite a while and like the direction for the most part.

Why are people excited for this when the last two movies were lousy? Only the first Jurassic Park was any good before it got affected by sequel cash-ins.

The movie is set 20+ years after the original movie, it seems that it will ignore the sequels and yeah the park has been open for a few years now. The movie is set in Isla Nublar where the first movie happened (TLW and JP/// are in Isla Sorna). So yeah the whole part of the Island where the movie events happened seems to be blocked off and they'll be exploring a bit of that based on pictures which is something I always wanted to see as a kid. They'll also have a "genetically enhanced Dinosaur" called a D-Rex, now that sounds stupid but the Director has been saying all the correct words, he really seems to understand the franchise and what's important about it for example the reason there won't be returning main actors is because they don't make sense in a JP sequel which is totally true.

I think the movie is going to be quite entertaining and easily the best sequel but it definitely won't be anywhere near the original. Even so we'll finally have another good dinosaur movie and that's good enough for me since dinosaurs are awesome and they've lacked representation in a long time, hopefully it re-starts a "Dino-Fever" like the original Jurassic Park. I mean the only thing that could ever top the original movie is a reboot that is faithful to the novel.

Have been following it since last year. It was off and on for awhile before. Always knew another one would eventually happen.

I'm sure it'll be good if not great. Its been over 10 years since JP3 and its got a fresh cast. The park finally being operational should be cool to see.

D-Rex isn't meant to be a ridiculous monster. Just a bigger, scarier dinosaur. Its not based on a real dinosaur obviously but its more of a creation that scientists went too far with.

As far as we know. It could be a new dinosaur created to bring in more visitors after the novelty wears off. Within the movieverse the park has been open for awhile and people don't take it as serious anymore.

I hope the plot has something a little more to it than just "bigger and badder" dinosaurs run loose.

As a few other posters said before, I don't know if any sequel will recapture the magic of the original because it was able to bring the scientific intrigue and repercussions of the vague world (at the time) of genetic engineering while combining it with an action-adventure tone of survival, which made the original movie engaging on many levels.

I remember reading about this project about how it was in development hell over creating several scripts. The most absurd was DNA splicing of dinosaurs and humans for military purposes, and another was (I'm not too sure about this) a virus that was found to spread from the dinosaurs to humans. So if this movie was finally able to get made after development hell, who knows... could Beverly Hills Cop 4 finally show up in the foreseeable future?

But anyways, we'll see what appears with Jurassic World...

No sequel will recapture the same feeling of the original because we know more less what to expect and what the dinos look like. This doesn't mean its a bad thing. As long as its good and entertaining that's all that matters.

Those other supposed storylines were rumors and obviously ignored so we know nobody actually thought those were good ideas. The virus thing might work to a certain point but I don't know.

It's targeted for that date, but there's no info about the production/filming occurring just yet, so it's easier for the film studio to pull the plug if pre-production still doesn't look good to them. And considering it's history, it needs something more substantial than "paperwork and talks" and having film incentives to show the studio is confident in investing in the movie project.

At least with Jurassic World, the filming has already finished on August 2014 and the promotional posters are already being released (as shown above), so the studio will be less likely to pull the plug on the project after going to this extent now (having to build several set scenes, pay the actors, and other production costs for filming).

They all look like they understand what's important...than you end up with Terminator: Salvation or worse.

Nope.
At least idea about human-dinosaurus hybrid went to the stage, when concept art and some 3D models were produced.

Newbie actors, newbie staff oh yah this spells disaster written all over.
I'm not getting my hopes up high for this one, I think they should have ended the fourth one with the entire team from the first film reuniting minus the guy in charge for clear reasons, guy died about a year ago right? Working against this new park.

Than if they ever decided to make a fifth film they could have done this, let the old cast go out with a bang.

Now while I'd love to see them again and I'm bummed they aren't in the movie you can't hold this against the movie. It made little sense for Dr. Malcolm or Dr. Grant to come back to the island in their respected sequels. Story wise it just doesn't make sense for someone to have survived a situation (twice!) to go back into it. The fact that they aren't there because it makes no sense and that the director acknowledges bringing back characters without a reason is a good sign.

Well I didn't follow Terminator: Salvation, I'm not saying the movie won't be bad, we can't know until we see the movie, even the trailers can be deceiving. But at least we know its a director that cares about the franchises history and has said the correct things in all the interviews. Its not the mess that the pre-production of JP/// was or the new TMNT movie.

The cast of the original was mostly "newbie" actors, not to mention Chris Pratt is pretty damn famous now. The director might not have a lot under his belt but he has good movies under it. This is Universals highest grossing movie/franchise so they don't want to **** it up, that's the reason JPIV was in development hell for so long, they were waiting until they had the right formula.

A fourth one reuniting all the team of the first film makes no sense story wise and would've been a terrible film, and no he just died about a month ago.

this movie has dumpster fire written all over it. and even if it didn't make sense for either of them to be there they could still be through way of supporting characters. Kelly Malcom (Dr. Malcoms daughter) Could be working there. Same with Billy Brennan and Eric Kirby.

That's how it always goes. All this words of assurance are only to pacify public. Even if movie obviously shapes to be a disaster, they still will try to convince everyone, that everything is fine.
I am not saying it's the case with JW, but I don't think words of director is 100% guarantee, that it will be a good picture.

Well, if for nothing else, the movie should be fun, especially with Chris Pratt in the lead. Can't be much worse than Jurassic Park III.

So pretty much canon-wise, the 2nd and 3rd movie never happened?
