TSMefford 1,509 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 1 hour ago, Datameister said: The thing about Jurassic Park is that ultimately, any movie is going to follow the same fundamental formula. People think they're safe with dinosaurs, then the dinosaurs start eating them, then some of the people fend off the dinosaurs and survive. There's still a lot of wiggle room in the details, but the most basic concept is always the same. I don't view that as a criticism; they're fun monster movies, and that's not a bad thing. The original is one of my top favorite films. Here's the thing though. While yes, at the base core the overall concepts are the same, Jurassic World makes it clear that they're just redoing the story of the original again. Two siblings visit a Dinosaur Theme Park thanks to a connection with a relative who oversees the operation of the park. The audience is meant to be filled with awe and wonder at the park and the dinosaurs within. Then, due to some has-science-gone-too-far and company shenanigans, Dinosaurs begin to escape and roam free, flipping the awe and wonder on it's head. The vehicle the two kids are in gets destroyed by a big alpha dinosaur and they are forced to wander freely and try to survive. Eventually, everyone reunites for a big final showdown with Raptors where, in the end, the T-Rex ultimately wins the day. Which movie did I just describe? Sure. They spruce it up with the Hybrid Dino, some trained Raptors, and the park having been reopened for a while, but it's just a lesser version of Jurassic Park. I totally agree with @Disco Stu it just feels insincere, shallow, and forced, like they're checking off boxes. And I find the music clashes a bit, because it feels like it's actually trying more than the movie is. Now, I am fully aware and accept that you can see similar story beats between TFA and ANH. It certainly draws more from the story than I'd like it to. But I can tell that there's a love and a passion for the material when I watch it. The new characters are interesting, vibrant, and memorable and despite pulling from the story beats of ANH, it doesn't feel (to me anyways) like a ripoff. It somehow comes across more as homage to me. The other thing too is that TFA's CGI doesn't feel blatantly obvious that it is CGI and stands well with the other Star Wars films, still using practical effects occasionally. It also feels more alive. Jurassic World's CGI somehow looks worse than what came before and just holds no weight. So it's not necessarily about how much they used it, but how they did it. The scenes in Jurassic Park that are fully CGI creatures feel more real, are more terrifying (or beautiful) and seem more properly integrated into their scenes. I will add though, even though Fallen Kingdom is a less blatant ripoff of Lost World (capturing the now wild dinos and bringing them to the mainland for money-making purposes) it does at least set-up Dominion to be uncharted territory for the franchise. That being said, Fallen Kingdom is utterly ridiculous and nonsensical. More so than any other film in the franchise, so... we'll see what actually ends up happening in Dominion. At least the original cast is back. All this is just my view though. I'm not trying to change anyone's minds necessarily. I did go a bit off the rails here, but I'm mostly just curious what other people see in World that they don't see in TFA, because clearly...I don't see it. It sounds a bit like, many just hold Star Wars in a slightly higher regard than some dinosaur monster movies. Therefore were more disappointed by TFA than they were by World. Which is fair enough. Personally, I've never held either in particularly high regard with the exception of the original Jurassic Park and...TFA. Lol. Bayesian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datameister 2,042 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Fair points, @TSMefford. There are more similarities between JP and JW than I was remembering. Maybe part of the difference for me is the fact that JW deals with an open, fully operational theme park? For most people that would probably be a relatively minor, surface-level thing, but my own background and interests give that difference a lot more weight for me. And I do still maintain that there's a greater expectation of formulaic plots with monster movies than with Star Wars. JW came after three films with pretty similar self-contained arcs, whereas TFA came after six films that each had a fairly unique plot that formed part of a larger story. Interesting to compare these. I admit I hadn't really made direct comparisons between TFA and JW before this conversation. TSMefford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Muad'Dib 1,802 Posted January 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2021 Agreed, the Indoraptor had a lot of potential but never delivered. For starters, we didn't need another frickin' hybrid as the main antagonist and two, pick a damn movie. If you're gonna re-do Lost World, fine, whatever, stick to that. But don't switch me to a different haunted-house movie in the middle of the thing. I would have preferred if the whole thing was in the house and be done with it, but sadly neither of the halves of the movie are good enough, both are stupid as fuck. The only thing it has going on for it is the superb direction by Bayona, but he can't salvage the script. However, the Indominus is kinda meh as well. She's built-up to be super smart with a million abilities and whatever, but it's just another angry carnivore on a rampage. I guess if I *had* to choose I'd go with the Indominus, but neither are really put to good use in the films.

scallenger 483 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 As a fan of all things Jurassic, I think overall I prefer Jurassic World as a film over Fallen Kingdom. However, I think Fallen Kingdom's score is light years better than Jurassic World's. I was honestly disappointed in the first score after Giacchino had delivered the highly energetic and exciting Jupiter Ascending not long before it. Apart from some standout tracks and moments, overall it is honestly my least favorite Jurassic score of the franchise. I honestly felt his themes were greatly expanded upon in the Lego Video Game more than in the film! How's that for odd? But Fallen Kingdom's score... wow. I saw the film at an early screening before the soundtrack had even been released at all; hadn't even heard any clips! And I was won over by it right away. It has such an old-fashioned monster movie feel to it, and has so many clear homages to Hermann in the first half. While I wish his Jurassic World theme made more appearances like in the first score, Fallen Kingdom showed that he was clearly having fun with the film. It goes back and forth between high-energy action to dramatic gothic highlights, making it really fun to listen to repeatedly. The OST (in both CD and digital forms) was also well-selected compared to the first score, which had left off many interesting tracks. Oh, and I forget if there is a separate thread, but Season 2 of Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous is on Netflix now. The score, again by Leo Birenberg, continues to references JP and JW themes.

Tom Guernsey 2,284 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I didn't really enjoy either of the Jurassic World movies that much (sure that's a consequence of having enjoyed the original JP so much... and it being my first ever film score), but preferred Fallen Kingdom over the first one, movie and score. I think the first Jurassic World was one of those years where Giacchino wrote a number of high profile scores and it sounded like he was spread a bit thin. Also, it featured a repeating trumpet figure which started to appear in a number of his scores, which I never cared for and the themes got increasingly clunky, which was quite a disappointment after the great melodies for Pixar and Medal of Hono(u)r. I've grown to appreciate them more than I did at the time but they are still quite loud and lack the craft of Williams or Don Davis. Speaking of which, I would still rate Davis' effort as the best non-Williams JP score. His new themes mix pretty effectively with the originals and the way he uses the original themes takes them in new directions that Williams probably would never have done, but blended well with Davis' own compositional thumbprints (but not sounding like an imitation of the Matrix). Indeed, I'd say it set the tone for Solo as to how effectively Williams' material could be taken in new directions, effectively blending the styles of both (OK maybe Alexander Courage did it first on Superman IV...?!) . Definitely hankering for an expansion of JPIII still, fingers remain crossed. Oh and I still maintain that JPIII would have been better told from the point of view of the kid stuck on the island... at least until his parents etc. show up to rescue him/get eaten.

Hats off to ILM for their work here. The five-minute preview, shown in 1:90:1 Imax aspect ratio, includes a prologue to the film’s narrative and is set 65 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period, when dinosaurs roamed the entire Earth. Infused with Oscar winner Michael Giacchino’s score, the clip will reveal what Earth looked like long before humans existed and tell the origin story of how dinosaur DNA first came to be carried by a mythic mosquito. Of note, seven new species of dinosaurs, created by Industrial Light & Magic, are making their Jurassic debut. “Ever since I was a kid, I have wanted to see dinosaurs in their natural habitat,” Trevorrow says. “It may have taken a few decades, but with a little help from ILM, Universal and Amblin, it has finally happened. This Preview is just a glimpse of the film we’ve made. It’s an epic celebration of everything Steven Spielberg and Michael Crichton created, and I can’t wait to share it with the world next summer.” Can't wait to see how the design of their paleontologically accurate T-Rex in the prologue differs from the InGen design of the films.

You know, in a way, it comes full circle. Just as the world was able to really see living, breathing and moving dinosaurs back in 1993 with Jurassic Park (as accurate as possible at the time, with an exception being the Dilophosaurus), the world will be able to see as accurately as possible how they lived in their natural habitat based on the latest paleontological research. Actually, this prologue makes a mental image I’ve always had every time I listen to Maestro John Williams’ “Theme from Jurassic Park” come true. The opening horn, followed by the flute and harp; I always picture a sunrise revealing a beautiful prehistoric landscape with open plains and conifer trees; the rest of the piece creates a mental image of a landscape teeming with dinosaurs.
