Ya, .... Didn't they learn the first time? I mean it's still sort of a plot hole why they decided to open the park after the events of the 1st movie.

 

I don't know how its a plot hole. People like making money. The end. 

I think they are going to say the park has been open for some time with no incidents, which is why they are creating the hybrid - to keep attendance from dropping.

And what do you expect? An Oscar movie? This franchise has one thing that is certain to light people's imagination, and that is dinosaurs. They don't really need an amazing story, just very good CGI and effects and this will be a hit. Sometimes this is all you need to make a GOOD movie. Take The Mummy, for example. Stupid movie, but the funny moments and, most of all, the Egyptian stuff made it a success at the time. Personally, I don't care if this was done before. If I can see dinosaurs again, and at least as realistic as in the original movie, I'm all for it.

yeah, being a big budget movie, it's bound to be entertaining. I just hope it still has the JP music.

nope, just voicing my opinion, I'm looking forward to it but am not expecting a movie like JP1, that's a classic now.

How explicit do you want me to be?

 

Can't be worse than Feig doing the reboot of Ghostbusters I'd tell you. In Jurassic World, they are at least acknowledging Hammond's dream of a full and functional park. Not sure why this is bad?

It's not really bad, the trailer looks uninteresting to me, but it just gives me a bad feeling. The first one was a great action adventure movie, and it was really movie magic, especially as a kid, to see all the dinosaurs come to life. Like, I really wonder how many kids were influenced by that movie to pursue science and paleontology. I remember collecting Jurassic Park cards, and each new dinosaur I got was beyond cool. This one just screams "easy cashgrab," and in the process of overusing effects and CGI, they've made it less believable than the first one, at least for me. It's like they're literally holding a piece of paper saying "Do you recognize this ######? Buy it!" with it, just like they do with about any Hollywood production these days. You could argue they're doing the same thing with the new Star Wars nowadays, but there for instance, the trailer invoked that sense of movie magic and wonder, like there was actual effort involved. Here, the nostalgia card plays cheap and dirty. Hence, raping my childhood.

 

But I'll save my judgement for after I see the movie. I know I get too cynical in these threads, but it's mostly due to people being overexcited with anything thrown their way I react that way, I don't really care and I don't view these movies as much more than entertainment.

Everything else is great except one major problem: trained raptors. :pinch:

    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      Owing to the nature of Windows feature enablement updates, it was distributed over Windows Update services as a complete system upgrade rather than as an ordinary cumulative update

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release by Usama Jawad Windows 11 typically follows an annual update cycle, but Microsoft recently broke that tradition a bit by releasing a "26H1" version in the first half of this year as a "scoped" build for select new silicon PCs only. This version was not available for customers using 24H2 and 25H2 builds, as Microsoft is busy preparing version 26H2 for them, confirmed officially for the first time. In a Windows IT Pro blog, Microsoft has urged IT admins to prepare for the upcoming release of Windows 11 version 26H2. The company has confirmed that this will be a small enablement package (eKB) that will simply light up certain disabled features that are already present in the operating system's code base. This means that the "refined" Windows update and deployment experience will be simpler and quicker, with minimal disruptions, as the feature update will simply toggle a few flags rather than performing a complete replacement. Microsoft has explained that this is all possible because the standard Windows 11 releases share the same servicing branch and hence, the same source code. However, this also means that Windows 11 26H1 users won't be able to upgrade to 26H2 as that is a different branch, but this is something we have known for a while now. Similar to previous annual feature updates, Windows 11 26H2 will offer the following support cycles: 24 months of support for Home, Pro, Pro EDU, and Pro for Workstations editions 36 months of support for Enterprise, Education, IoT Enterprise, and Enterprise Multi-session editions Microsoft has not confirmed a concrete release date for Windows 11 26H2, but noted that it is "coming soon". If we go by the ongoing release cadence, we can expect it to begin rolling out in early October 2026. As such, IT admins have been encouraged to begin validating Windows Insider releases in the Experimental Channel, plan rollout rings, and strategize the utilization of their existing deployment tools.
    • Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds by Taras Buria Today's Experimental builds (26H1 and Future Platforms, formerly Canary) pack several audio-related improvements. If your device is enrolled in the Experimental Channel (26H1), you can download build 28120.2315, while those in the Future Platforms version have build 29613.1000 to try. Here is what is new in build 29613.1000: [Audio] Following up on our previous improvements, we’re making some more adjustments to Settings > System > Sounds based on your feedback. Namely, we’ve updated the “All sound devices” page so: You now have the ability to change default devices from this page. Each of the devices displayed on this page now has a little volume meter next to it to show if there is audio actively playing. We’ve adjusted the page design slightly so now you can filter whether you’re viewing input or output devices. We’ve added toggles so you can choose if you want to hide or show disabled, disconnected, and unplugged devices on this page. We’ve also updated the input and output audio properties page for devices in Settings to now include jack information for those that need it. And here is the changelog for build 28120.2315: This update includes a small number of minor bug fixes and improvements. [Accessibility] This update improves caption style responsiveness by redrawing captions immediately for caption style changes. If no current caption is visible, a sample caption string is displayed. [Audio] This update improves the reliability of the inbox HD Audio driver. You can find the official release notes for build 28120.2315 here and for build 29613.1000 here.

      I agree with what I think you are saying, just not in the way you are saying it. Like any tool, the amount it represents your work is perorational to the effort you put into it. It is similar to why 2nd grade math students learning to add and subtract are not allowed to use calculators, but a high-school calculous student is. For the 2nd grader, that tool would completely replace the work they are doing, for the calculous student the same tool allows them to work far more effectively while in no way replacing their effort or knowable. If you spend 30 seconds writing a prompt, then the image that comes out is no more "yours" than if you found the same image with a Google Image search. However, many of these generative tools also support highly iterative processes that allow back and forth, and merging generated images with photos or human created images. I am sure you would agree that a human spending hours of time working on a project, even if AI was involved in the process, still reflects that human's work.
