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.

Colin Trevorrow is that bad?

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.

Well wasn't this supposed to be a reboot of somesorts? so they have to get it right!

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.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
    • They said by this time everyone will have flying cars. WELL...
    • A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.
    • Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
