re: Looks Like The Next Jurassic World Is Gaining Steam

Look at great works which then carried on withOUT the author's direct input.

Lord of the Rings - Tolkien

Jurassic Park - Crichton

Game of Thrones - GRRM.

The Witcher - Andrzej Sapkowski


It's almost full proof, that whenever there's a deviation from the source material, or the one who created it, the result is a trainwreck.

Few were ever more invested with Jurassic Park than I was when it came out. Saw it multiple times in the theater, own the movie AND soundtrack. I've BEEN to Montanta to see fossils... This franchise lost me at JP3 after hearing the director's desire for a bigger, newer bad - Spinosaurus. Laughable. Then they double down with the ridiculous DNA chimera hybrids... that's so not what Crichton was trying to convey.

Fine if it made some people a living wage. I tapped out of Jurassic World. never saw the last 2 (?) movies. I forget.

Going to take a special effort and real pivot to earn my interest back.
