Or it is because of other films coming out near same time...

If it was just that, then Universal would have announced a new date. It is very rare for a film to be pushed back indefinitely like this unless there's major problems with it.

What concerns me is that this new director is doing exactly what Joe Johnston did with JP3. From what I recall, five weeks before filming was suppose to start, Johnston rejected the entire script in order to pursue the "rescue mission" plot.

According to Variety, Trevorrow is rewriting the script: http://variety.com/2013/film/news/universal-delays-jurassic-park-4-release-1200477065/

Filming was suppose to start June 24, so in about six weeks. Sound familiar?

My expectations for this film have plummeted because of this development, coupled with the tweets that have since been deleted, I don't have any faith that this film will be even remotely decent anymore.

Well we've waited this long haven't we :/

I believe that's because the most overrated director in Hollywood, Steven Spielberg, has always been attached to this franchise. Then you add crap writers and Joe Johnston to the mix, we end up with Jurassic Park 3. Just look at the stupid idea Spielberg had where mutated dinosaurs would be used in wars.

Universal needs to get rid of everyone who's been attached to the previous films and start fresh. There's plenty of other talented writers/directors out there that could do a lot better job!

Gareth Edwards comes to mind who wrote/directed Monster (2010). Matt Reeves, Drew Goddard; I would even trust Joss Whedon with this franchise more than the people who've always been attached.

Colin Trevorrow is that bad?

Safety Not Guaranteed was a fun movie but I think it needs someone who has directed a monster movie so Gareth Edwards seems a good choice

Yeah I researched him, be basically has a clean slate so there's some chance he go actually do something good to make a name for himself.

It isn't that he is bad, but a relatively new director coming in and ordering major script changes either suggests the script that Universal approved was absolute rubbish or Trevorrow is going in the same direction as Johnston did with JP3. With only six weeks to filming, and no new release date, it doesn't bode well for the film to be good.

That's just my opinion and I honestly hope that I'm absolutely incorrect and it turns out to be the best film ever, but at this point, I just don't see that happening.

While we wait for the next official announcement, actor Sam Neill - best known for playing Doctor Alan Grant in 1993's Jurassic Park and 2001's Jurassic Park III - told Stuff.co.nz that he will unlikely reprise the role for Jurassic Park 4. He doesn't detail why, but hints at the reason in a brief comment. "I'm told it's a big reboot, a total re-jig." Producer Frank Marshall said last year that the film will not be a reboot, but a sequel (as expected).

Bourne Legacy is fantastic. Easily the best of the Bourne films.

 

 

What ???

 

It's watchable but far from the best.

 

 

The first film was decent but the rest were terrible. I wasn't impressed with the second film at all, especially the Godzilla-style ending, and the third film was a train-wreck from the get-go. I'm quite surprised that they're going ahead with Jurassic Park 4, though Hollywood isn't known for its originality.

 

The first movie was really good. But you are too young to be able to fully grasp how awesome it was back in 1993 (you were only 7 yo). I saw Jurassic Park when i was 16 in a drive-in. It was raining a bit and we were 3 in a jeep. One of the best ******* experience i ever had in a drive in.

A ?reliable source? of JoBlo.com?s has passed along some intriguing plot details for the film, which is set to be directed by Colin Trevorrow. In short, the film will take place at the original site of Jurassic Park, Isla Nublar, which is now fully operational. Yes, we actually get to see Jurassic Park as it was always intended.

Of course, things can?t remain peachy for long. Here are the alleged details:
 

JURASSIC PARK 4, set in present day Isla Nublar, is now an actual theme park, as originally intended by John Hammond in the first film. It garners 10 million visitors per year and is completely safe ? until it?s not. The park itself is described as very Sea World-esque and includes an area called the Isla Nublar Lagoon. That means underwater dino?s for the first time. No indication of what kind, but there?s concept art showing one of the aquatic dino?s, as part of a show, jumping out of the lagoon and eating a strung up great white shark like it was a fish for a dolphin at sea world.

As part of a show, you ask? That?s right, folks, this will feature ?tamed? dino?s. In fact, our source indicated that the usually menacing Velociraptors (which will finally be muzzled, along with the T-Rex ? until they?re not) will actually be used to help fight the threat, which begins in the form of a new dinosaur, not seen in any of the previous films (and not disclosed to us) shows to be much smarter than originally thought and is the main cause of havoc breaking out at the park.

So, to sum it all up, JURASSIC PARK 4 will take place back on Isla Nublar with a fully operational dinosaur theme park (I?m sure no expense was spared) that?s both prosperous and safe, until a new dinosaur figures out a way to wreak havoc, causing the use of the now tamed Velociraptors (and T-Rex? Unclear) as a means to fighting the threat.

    • Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. So far the company has acknowledged two known issues that have popped up after the release which include bugged-out Office apps as well as the Recycle Bin; though there could be more at play too. Speaking of bugs and issues, Microsoft seems to have finally acknowledged a problem that probably has been around for close to a year. That's because back in July of 2025 the company made a default change to the latest Windows 11 versions, wherein it switched to JScript9Legacy on Windows 11 24H2 and later releases. Hence following the release of version 25H2 in October 2025, JScript9Legacy also remained default-enabled. As a result there has been a compatibility issue ever since then. For those wondering, by switching to JScript9Legacy Microsoft intended to improve the security of modern Windows PCs by reducing vulnerabilities tied to legacy scripting like cross-site scripting (XSS), among others. XSS exploits can allow cyber-attackers to attach malicious code onto legitimate websites and use them to execute the code when a potential victim loads such a website. Hence the new JScript9Legacy engine enforced stricter execution policies and improved object handling, which should help mitigate such attacks. Microsoft today has published a new support article detailing the problem. Neowin spotted it while browsing. The company says that JScript global definitions and execution context may fail to persist across scripts, potentially breaking older dependent apps and web-based components that relied on this legacy behavior. In the article Microsoft has confirmed that the issue stems from its move away from the older jscript9.dll engine in favor of jscript9legacy.dll. As mentioned above, while the newer engine was designed to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security it also changes how JScript handles execution context. As a result functions and definitions loaded by one script could no longer remain available to subsequent scripts once execution ended. The company notes that some applications worked correctly on earlier Windows versions because the older JScript engine automatically retained global definitions and execution state between scripts. Under the newer model though that behavior is disabled by default causing certain legacy workloads and polyfill-dependent scripts to fail. Microsoft says it addressed the problem via the KB5077241 update though the fix had not been enabled automatically in the following updates. As such admins must explicitly turn on persistent JScript execution context using a Registry setting that the tech giant shared today. The configuration can be applied to individual processes or system-wide through the FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE registry key. The steps have been outlined below: Run the following command to create the feature control registry key: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE" Under this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value. Configure the value as follows: To enable persistence for specific processes only: Set the value to 1 for each target process name. To enable persistence for all processes: Add * as the key name and set its value to 1. You can find the official support article here on Microsoft's website.
