Alright everybody, I'm not a paleontologist by any means but I am a lover of movies, and the Jurassic park franchise is one of my favorites, and I know a fair few of you all feel the same way, not a day goes by were someone isn't posting on what they want the film to be like, who they want to be cast in it and, most importantly which dinosaurs they want to see. So I thought I'd make a thread so we could all post what dinosaurs we want to see in JP4 and why, I'm sure your dinosaur experts will drum up some great, obscure dinosaurs that I've never even heard of but here's the dinosaurs I'd personally like to see in JP4. ![]() 1. The nocturnal, venomous troodon from JP the game. I know if these are the new dinosaurs in the film some people will probably feel cheated because they are small and they've already been featured in the video game. But personally, I love the design and the idea behind these things, nocturnal, pack hunting, venomous predators with eerie glowing eyes, that is a great concept. I think these particular dinosaurs could be used very effectively in the film, if theirs one movie franchise I love it's horror, and horror is one of the most popular genres today. Just look at the success of all the horror movies to come out recently, to me, the idea of these glowing eyed troodon lunging out at people in the dead of night or in a dark enclosed space is really cool and good for jump scares, and movies that make you jump are the ones that say with you the longest, the original JP new this and made use of it in the scene with the velociraptors in the control room you need a fear element to work with the adventure element to make a truly memorable film, and the troodon fits the bill perfectly. ![]() 2. Allosaurus. This is probably the theropod everyone wants to see in this movie, and I can see why. It's just a cool animal, not as big or as powerful as the the tyrannosaurs but still fast enough to run a jeep off the road, I think the addition of a new giant theropod would be welcomed and if they're going to pick any, why not the one the fans are demanding to see? To be honest, theirs probably more giant theropods that I don't know about that could provide an even better candidate, so I'm not really bothered what species the new giant theropod is, as long as it doesn't diminish T.rexes screen time, I'm happy. ![]() 3. Tyrannosaurs Rex. T.rex was my favorite dinosaur when I was a kid and it was everyone elses too, for one reason, Jurassic park. Jurassic park 1 & 2 took an already popular dinosaur and turned it into a superstar. T.rex is the poster child of the franchise, 80% of the people going to watch jurassic park are going for the T.rex, and why shouldn't they love him? T.rex in jurassic parkwas the epitome of cool, and he needs to be restored to his former glory. Don't get me wrong, I liked the spinosaurs in JP3, I thought it made a great addition and it was an awesome animal, but I don't think it should become a trend that the new theropod completely overshadows the T.rex, change is fine but come on, it's the T.rex!! A new dinosaur would be great and revitalize the franchise, but the public want's to see T.rex eating people, smashing down buildings, crushing cars and just generally bringing the pain. So give em what they want, make T.rex like he was in the first two films, so awesome that you were expecting it to bust out of the screen and wreck your whole neighbourhood. Those are the ones I'd most like to see, thoroughly explained. To be honest, I can't see more than one species being introduced effectively because of pacing of the film and money issues, but if they do at least one of the three things I posted I think the movie will be a success, at least to me anyway. |

I agree that you could contrive a scenario where humans lose... howeve such scenarios do not frequently naturally occur. You make a distinction between natural and artificial- our weapons are as natural as anything else, they are made out of matter we assimilate for our purposes, but this is besides the point. I agree that I worded the any kind of conflict part too strong. Nevertheless my position remains that due to their enormous brains humans are the most capale fighters of any species so far discovered: We have devised effective methods to kill any other species in seconds with little or no fear of retribution. |

If the KT Extinction didn't happen, the dinosaurs would likely have evolved a civilization far more advanced than humans...it's not due to the brains, it's due to the events that allowed humans to develop... I think the ending of "Last Day of the Dinosaurs" summed it up correctly: "Only because the dinosaurs died, can human beings live." Edited by SpinoInWonderland, May 2 2013, 08:46 PM.

I think you would have to provide evidence of the first claim. As far as I can tell it is possible but not certain. But this is totally irrelevant t anything I said. I am comparing actual abilities not abilities that would have been possible if something was different. I allready gave you that answer and you failed to respond:

I wonder how when I go to say in match ups that humans using artificial weaponry is natural due to our intelligence. I got criticized. I wish they could understand this. |

I would really like to see Yutyrannus! (Because it's my favorite.) But i have read that the producer said that they would add a new "badass" dinosaur. CAN'T WAIT!

I'm betting on Troodon being the villain. I think we'll see Parasaurolophus, Triceratops, T. rex, Dilophosaurus, Velociraptor, Pteranodon and Troodon. I wish the villain was Carnotaurus instead of Troodon, but that's unlikely according to a fan who says he emailed Jack Horner and asked. |

Did he/she? I would have thought a JP carnotaurus would be a perfect villian because in the novel carnotaurus had chameleon like abilities to change colour to match its enviroment. That would have been perfect, these designs would suit it. ![]()

Giganotosaurus as the main dinosaur would be cool. |

I'd be happy with a movie that wasn't a dissapointing sequel. Need i mention the atrocity that was JP///? There's actually quite a bit of info out on this movie, and from what i've seen....it's looking promising. |

I'm not too thrilled about talk of the supposed Tyrannosaurus/Velociraptor/snake/cuttlefish(?) hybrid that's supposedly going to appear in the film. |
