Interesting choice tbh, Safety Not Guaranteed is not a bad movie but not really a pre cursor for something as big as JP4

It is an odd choice, I'm not going to say bad since he's a fairly inexperienced director and has never done a movie like this to begin with.

Personally, I would have trusted this with John Gulager (Feast) over Trevorrow.

Good, it can be explained away by errors in the DNA and plugging the holes with Frog DNA. The "dinosaurs" are genetically engineered animals, not actual dinosaurs.

hollywood and telltale games are ruining jurrassic park :(

I actually enjoyed the story of Telltales JP, even if the game itself was crap.

i just read something what is suposed to be the plot, say that was a troll...

i love JP i watched it trough a sleave of my sweater when the t rex broke out ( i was 9) i remember that rour like i'm looking at it right now

i'm 29 now, i still love it XD

hope they don't ruin JP franchise... 2 was good, 3 ok 4... fingers crossed

Speaking with USA Today while promoting this week's release of Jurassic Park 3D, paleontologist and dinosaur consultant Jack Horner (who was an advisor for the Steven Spielberg-directed original) gives a better idea for what to expect in the recently announced fourth film, which he is also involved with. Recently, Colin Trevorrow (Safety Not Guaranteed) signed on to direct, with Spielberg on board as an executive producer. Here, Horner reveals that "a new, previously extinct creature" will rise to stardom in Jurassic Park 4, and hints that the fourquel will be scarier than the prior films. "I can't actually tell you who that will be. But you'll want to keep the lights on after you see this movie." What dinosaurs would you like to see in Jurassic Park 4?

There's a special treat for Jurassic Park fans today on Colin Trevorrow's Twitter feed. He's revealed the first behind-the-scenes glimpse at the highly-anticipated Jurassic Park 4, currently undergoing location scouting. Check out his shot of what will become Isla Nublar below!

Isla Nublar was the fictional location of the original Jurassic Park, as opposed to Isla Sorna, featured in The Lost World and Jurassic Park III. It appears to be a good bet that the action of the franchise sequel will feature a return to the original park.

The Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment production will be produced by Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley with Steven Spielberg as Executive Producer. The script was written by Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver (Rise of the Planet of the Apes).

Oh snap son, ever since the disappointment of the Lost World I always wondered what the park would look like after 20 years all decayed and run down. I hope they don't use the shaving foam nonsense, it only had enough coolant in for 72 hours, after that the embryos die.

I am a bit worried about them retconning JP canon, in the books the island was levelled by helicopter missiles, in the TLW in a deleted scene there was a boardroom scene with Peter Ludlow (Hammonds Nephew) saying the island had been dismantled and all the assets sold, granted it was cut from the film but it was filmed for a reason.

I think this guy gets "it", roll on 2014.

If they use flashbacks, they can still use the shaving foam. I'm not saying I want them too, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did do something where a team hired by Biosyn is sent in to get the canister. It was a pretty big plot point in both the novel and the film to simply ignore it to be honest.

Universal Pictures has today confirmed the rumors that Jurassic Park 4 has been pushed back. The Colin Trevorrow-directed film was originally scheduled for a June 13, 2014 release date. Here is the statement from the studio:

"In coordination with filmmakers, Universal has decided to release Jurassic Park 4 at a later date giving the studio and filmmakers adequate time to bring audiences the best possible version of the fourth installment in Universal?s beloved franchise. We could not be more excited about the vision that Colin Trevorrow has created for this film, and we look forward to watching as he and the producers create another great chapter in this franchise's storied history."

There has been unrest on the set over the last few days, leaning towards it never being made

Those tweets were removed, but for sure.. take as much time as needed to make the film the best. I wouldn't want to see another rushed JP movie.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
    • Microsoft: Windows 11 could finally solve a major issue across AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs by Sayan Sen While Microsoft has been trying to improve it, Windows 11 is definitely not flawless, as even today some issues are taking a year to publicly acknowledge. However, one area of trouble that may finally see much better results soon is graphics driver crashes. Work on graphics driver timeouts, also called Timeout and Detection Recovery (TDR), is not new as the latest WDDM 3.2 also has specific improvements regarding it. Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) version 3.2 is supported on Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2. However, with the upcoming version 26H2, TDR crash diagnosis could go to the next level as Microsoft is introducing a new DirectX 12 API feature called "DirectX Dump Files". Similar to how system memory dump files work when a system crashes or freezes or encounters any such major issue, DirectX Dump Files (DDF) will essentially record a snapshot of the GPU execution right at the moment a graphics-related crash or hang or freeze occurs, so that developers can better understand and diagnoze these TDR and timeout detection errors. The dump will be available as a .dxdmp file for analysis and it will be a comprehensive dump file generated with detailed insights about the hardware, drivers, Windows, as well as the affected application. This should be another welcome change in this department. Earlier at GDC 2026, when the technology was first debuted, Microsoft had shared more details regarding it. The company had explained how DDF is designed to gather data from every layer of the graphics stack into a single file, eliminating the need for developers to manually correlate logs from multiple tools. As mentioned above, the dump can contain a lot of useful details like GPU hardware state information such as register values, shader program counters, page fault virtual addresses, shader memory data, and command buffers. Alongside that, it also captures DirectX runtime and kernel information, including D3D objects, pipeline state objects, device error data, adapter details, and CPU call stacks. Microsoft says the feature has been built around two primary use cases: retail device removals and local device removals. The former allows developers to collect crash information from end users' systems in the field, while the latter helps QA teams and developers investigate issues on test machines. Developers will also be able to include up to 2 MB of custom application data through new D3D12 APIs, providing additional context for troubleshooting. In addition, Microsoft is introducing three dump collection modes ranging from zero-overhead capture, which has no runtime performance impact on supported hardware, to higher-detail modes that collect more vendor-specific debugging data. On compatible Tier 2 hardware, zero-overhead dumps will be enabled by default, meaning developers may begin receiving useful crash diagnostics without making any code changes. The table below explains the three tiers: Tier Description NO_OVERHEAD Enables crash capture with no runtime cost and is suitable for broad deployment MEDIUM_OVERHEAD Provides a balance, capturing additional diagnostic data with moderate impact HIGH_OVERHEAD Collects the most detailed GPU and driver state available, enabling deeper investigation at the cost of higher runtime overhead In terms of availability, the company expects broader release to be around the fall of 2026, which should be right around the time when Windows 11 version 26H2 lands. Right now, DirectX Dump Files are available as a preview and currently, only AMD has the compatible AgilitySDK Developer Preview driver version 26.10.07.02. You can find the official announcement post here on Microsoft's website.
