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.

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.

    • That lens of history will burn if you hold it at the right angle... Warn users too late: Shame, Microsoft! That extremely minor update to an obscure Control Panel widget required 2 years of warning. Warn users too early: Shame, Microsoft! We've got better things to do. Pipeline and process be damned, we'll just always be disappointed, eh?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good by Usama Jawad I have been using Windows since the early 2000s, when I was around 10 years old or so. I vaguely remember playing around with Windows 98 and Windows 2000, but that may have been on school PCs which had old operating systems installed. My main OS on the home PC, and the one I recall spending most time with, was Windows XP. At that time, I used the home PC to create Word and PowerPoint documents for school, but a lot of the time, I simply used it to play games. My dad would bring game discs which we would try and install on the PC, sometimes unsuccessfully, and sometimes, we would rely on flash games in the browser, like Bubble Trouble on Miniclip. However, the problem with the latter approach was the internet speed. On a good day, our dial-up internet would offer us speeds of 56 kbps, but on most days, it was closer to 33 kbps. This did not facilitate online gaming as I would often have to wait minutes for a game to load or "draw" on the screen, and trying to download pirated games wasn't simple either. I remember getting tired of waiting for online games to load and just downloading simulator games from the Big Fish Games website instead, only to be disappointed after finding out that I was just being given access to trial versions of the title, and I needed to fork out money to pay for the full version. All of this is to say that it wasn't very easy to find entertainment options on the home PC when I was a kid, due to a number of reasons, mostly outside of my control. This situation pushed me towards a rather unconventional ally: Microsoft Paint. Whenever the internet wasn't working as good as I expected, I would simply spin up Paint and draw complete rubbish on the canvas. Of course, that wasn't always the intention, but it usually happened when I messed up drawing a straight line or something, and then I would give up on that particular piece and simply draw a random collection of objects. Microsoft Paint was extremely accessible and easy to use. Even if you weren't an artist, you could quickly understand the tools at your disposal and how to leverage them on a canvas. The absolute breadth on offer ensured that each painting was truly unique, as you could utilize various combinations of tools like the pencil, paint, spray paint, and more to truly personalize your creation. Since I wasn't particularly good at drawing both on digital screen or a physical screen, I remember that my main style of art would be to insert a bunch of randomly intersecting lines and then fill them with random colors through the paint can. I have trying to replicate that art style in the latest version of Paint below, and as you can see, it's truly Pablo Picasso-esque. The human imagination truly knows no bounds Microsoft Paint kept me occupied for hours and was my best friend when video games on the home PC were inaccessible for one reason or the other. There was no academic or professional reason for which I would need to use Paint, but I still loved using it in my personal time, even if what I created wasn't worth being shown to anyone. It was simply fun. Fast-forward to today, and the situation is mostly the same. Now that I am almost 29 years old, and I still have no reason to use Microsoft Paint in a professional capacity. In fact, I don't even use it in a personal capacity, except to dabble with it from time to time, just to see if core functionalities are still intact. And I'm happy to say that I think Microsoft Paint still offers the same accessibility and inviting experience that it did to me a couple of decades ago, even though its UX has been refreshed and it's been integrated with Copilot features. Interestingly, things could have been a lot different, had Microsoft had its way. Microsoft Paint was marked for deprecation with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update in 2017, and even began displaying a product retirement alert, urging customers to shift to Paint 3D instead. Fortunately, after consumer backlash, Microsoft reversed course on this decision, and Paint continues to be a native app inside Windows installations that can also be updated quite frequently through the Microsoft Store. Instead, Paint 3D ended up on the chopping block, which is for the better, I think. I have intermittently played around with Microsoft's refreshed Paint experience in the past few years, and I do think it has received worthwhile upgrades. the UI and the UX has been modernized while retaining core functionality, and the app is still fairly easy to use. It doesn't meet any of my use-cases, but I've never really had any use-cases ever, as described previously. Of course, the elephant in the room is the Copilot integration. Personally, I believe that this is one place where Copilot does make sense, environmental concerns aside. I know that a lot of creatives use AI to generate images, and while some may be using professional alternatives, Paint still offers a decent casual experience, with the power of Copilot. Of course, you do need to have a valid Microsoft 365 Copilot license and available credits to use it, but even if you don't, you still get the big Copilot button in the toolbar, unfortunately. All in all, I am glad that Microsoft Paint continues to be a native feature in Windows 11, and a piece of software that has evolved to meet modern needs without cutting off its own roots. It's just an iconic piece of Windows history that was an essential part of my childhood, and while I don't use it anymore, I'm just glad it is still there.

    • Hopefully this will fix the issue of no sound I have since last months stupid, and non-removable, Microsoft Corporation AudioProcessingObject Driver Update (1.0.3.56670)
    • It IS confusing! What channel are you in on each device? I'm guessing your 16GB device is on Experimental (formerly known as Dev) and your 128GB is on Beta.
