How many Islands do they have?!

 

They had two. Then the one from Jurassic Park blew up. So now, one?

Looks fun yes. I hope the score is fun too.

 

i dont think its sorna. Must be another island because all those dinosaurs were not in previous films…

The Spinossaur wasn't in The Lost World too, though.

I think another island would be a dumb idea. It was a dumb idea in the cartoon as well.

They could just say that life finds a way, as they often do.

I heard them say something about Barbados in the trailer, which suggests it's a Caribbean island.

I believe Nublar and Sorna were in the Pacific off the coast of South America. 

So indeed, seems to be a third island.

Positioned geographically in a very strange spot of dinos would have to be transported from there to the main park. 

Can you imagine dino carrying cargo ships passing through the Panama Canal??

But man, the franchise has strayed so far from the original movie, its practically unrecognizable as being a continuation of that now

It's a shame the park aspect was rapidly lost again after reintroducing it in the first Jurassic World. 

But I like dinos in jungles too.

Isn't this supposed to be a sequel to the WORLD movies? If so, dinosaurs are all over the place, aren't they? They're not limited to Nublar and Sorna? But when they speak of a research/breeding facility in the trailer, I think of Sorna from TLW.

I think it could be “(research) site A”. For experiments. Sorna (site b) was to create the “park friendly” dinos.

 

though why masrani created the indominus in nublar instead of here….

I think it's supposed to be kind of a soft reset for the franchise. Not undoing the other World movies but just kind of ignoring them and their characters.

They could have made another title. Jurassic age, island or something.

 

if they keep doing world movies, in a pair of decades it will be Jurassic world: Jurassic park, jurassic world: the lost world and jurassic world: jurassic park III all with the subtitles with fallen kingdom, dominion and rebirth font.

Why call the movie still World then? 

I thought the point of that monicker was that dinos are now everyone on the World. 

From the side, it makes sense. 

 

Personally I don't need that. 

Just theme parks and the occasional dino island works for me.

Having recently landed back in my home island of Guernsey, with touchdown somehow impeccably time to the finale of JPIII**, they clearly should have set this new film in Guernsey... never mind all that Potato Peel Pie rubbish*, I want scenes of seagulls fighting over chips after the dinosaurs have devoured the beachgoers. Tourists on the Menu indeed. Oh and if Jonathan Bailey was in it and had to film near my house... I'm sure he'd need the odd cup of tea. Or something.

 

*It wasn't even filmed on the island so if you've ever wondered what Devon and Cornwall look like, this is the film to watch.

 

**a fun game for those who fly a lot, timing landing with an appropriate piece of film music. Although my favourite one is the finale to James Horner's Pas de Deux double concerto, which is just super for those heady final moments before you bounce down the runway to a halt. Although if I was gonna go for JPIII, I suppose I should have put on Isla Sorna Sailing Situation in case the plane was attacked by pteranodons. When I'm finally put in charge of making dinosaur movies (surely an inevitability at this point), this will be the first scene... pteranodon versus puffin...

The two Jurassic World sequels make the first Jurassic World look like the first Jurassic Park.

My thoughts exactly. 

 

Am I the only one who thinks that The Fallen Kingdom is actually much better than the first Jurassic World?


Well, all the sequels starting with JP3 were shite anyway... 🙄

No, it's simpler than that.

  1. We have Jurassic Park trilogy
  2. We have Jurassic World trilogy
  3. We need The Lost Park trilogy

:lol:

People are saying it's a "reboot", so I take that to mean that it may ignore the existence of some of the previous movies in the same way Halloween H20 ignored 4, 5 and 6.

Is it possible they're holding out to see if JW might be interested, alongside William Ross? I know he turned down Jurassic World but his schedule (and health concerns) made 2015 impossible. They might be waiting for an attractive enough rough cut to screen for him.

 

Also wouldn't be shocked if Mick Giacchino got the gig, if we consider Skeleton Crew his audition (no doubt he got KK's attention, and thus Frank Marshall's). Michael's schedule is way too packed but I could see him referring the gig to Mick if he was offered.

 

Bear would be great as well, his schedule should be relatively clear with the future of TROP in the balance.

 

Powell's schedule is too packed but he'd be great at this stuff.

 

JNH might be a wildcard. He has a Paul Greengrass drama on his plate but not much else.

 

I'm sure it'll be someone decent. He's only a producer but Spielberg would still have approval over the composer. Bayona's longtime composer didn't get JW:FK, for example.

Why there are always be kids in these Jurassic Movies?

I mean, you know they won't die, right?

They will do dumb things and others people get killed.

 


If this is the first time a kid do dumb things and get killed, this would be the best movie in the series.

That's the kind of expectation subversion I'd be down for. lol

It's indeed odd that they haven't announced the composer yet.

 

But I think Mick Giacchino is the most likely contender. Giacchino Senior is still close to the producers but since he's already doing F4 he might lobby the producers to give the gig to his son as it'd be a huge launching pad for his career.

I did enjoy Mick's work on Skeleton Crew, but I'm hoping we don't have either father or son working on this. Current Michael is really dull and redundant (except for IF) with how he's scoring everything; as for Mick, I just don't trust him with something like this. I'd much rather JNH, C Young, or Powell do this since they all can do some fun percussion and action writing, along with the good quiet moments in between said action. Obviously this is wishful thinking considering all three are probably busy / don't want to do a film like this.

Anyone else thinks this trailer looks like Kong: Skull Island? Aka the best Monsterverse movie.

 

I'd be ok with that, but I honestly can't shake the feeling that this will be just as shitty as the last two films. It all feels off.

Chris Young would be great, but I don't see it happening. :(

We get what we get, and I reserve judgement until composer is announced. Meanwhile, I brace myself for the worst (the Giacchinos, Desplat, Görannsson etc.), hope for the best (JNH would be ace, yes!) and take it from there.

Very true. Just kinda throwing names out there for the fun of it. I’m not really expecting much when it comes to the score, but I’d at least like for it to be fun and along the lines of the frantic and ad-libbed writing of TLW.

I find it interesting how many people seem to ask about who the composer is online.

 

In the comments underneath the trailer, other posts on Instagram & Twitter. Don't really remember that happening with another film.

Two of the three composers you mentioned as "worst case scenario" worked with the director before :lol:

 

That said, only Desplat was his choice. Giacchino was certainly chosen by Disney/Lucasfilm in the eleventh hour to salvage a movie with such a complicated production. On his next movie, he worked with the composer he wanted to for it: Hans Zimmer.

 

So in the end it will all come down to: who would have the last word on the composer, the studio/producers or the director?

 

If I had to bet I'd place my bet on Giacchino or his son, since he's very good at lobbying and is close from the producers/studio, having worked on the JW trilogy.

 

But maybe they'll allow Edwards to go for a different route. And when he's left on his own, his choices tend to be quite... unusual. Surprising. Like Desplat in a Godzilla movie or Zimmer in The Creator.

 

That said, the fact that they're taking this long to announce it is certainly unusual. Maybe behind the scenes turmoil?

Man, JNH would be much closer to a “worst case scenario” for me than a Gia reprise or Ludwig, though I know I’m in the minority opinion on his work.  Still, I have no optimism that score or movie will be interesting - I hope they get somebody new to mangle Williams’ themes in new and interesting ways.

Yeah, I actually have to backtrack a bit on JNH, as I also did earlier in the thread, I remember now. Had it been 2005 JNH, then yes - sure - perfect! But 2025 JNH, not so much. JUNGLE CRUISE, for example, which would be a natural comparison, has a couple of good tracks, but also LOTS of meandering stuff (the best bit is the Metallica cover anyway). That's been the model for 90% of his output in the last 20 years.

 

I'm hesitant to put up any favourites, really, as guessing games are not my thing, but I stand ready to judge -- with knives sharpened or fireworks ready to explode.

Yeah Tyler seems like a possibility. TBH after seeing the trailer I don't really care who's doing the music :lol: 

But maybe it'll be a pleasant surprise.

I wish they just re-use tracks and unreleased cues from previous films and even if doesn't happen like that,hope Batu Sener will compose it.

I am brand new to this site. I have looked at it before but never took the time to make an account. I want to share a theory of my which doesn’t really have any concrete evidence, but I still think it at least makes sense. Obviously it hasn’t been announced who the composer is for Rebirth, but I think it might be John Williams. Here’s my reasoning:

 

John Williams hasn’t done a score since Dial of Destiny in 2023. The producers are taking more control after the results of the last film. They’ve mentioned that they’re trying to make it more like the originals. They even brought back David Koepp (he did the screenplay for the first two films) to create the story and screenplay! It would make sense to bring back Williams as well.

 

Some people seem to think the lack of an announcement of a composer as a sign of unstable development with the score. But I bet they already have a composer, and maybe some work has been done. Maybe they’re waiting to announce it so that if they get some backlash with some trailer or something they can go “sorry about that, here’s something you’ll like” and then announce Williams. Why announce it now anyways? The fact that I created an account for a website just to share this (although I plan to stick around) shows that, if I’m correct in my theory, it is working well as advertisement. Plus I’m sure if he does do the score some people might see the film purely for the new Williams action music.

 

This was longer than I expected…Quite the first post!

These Hollywood movie-producing, screenwriting motherfuckers never, EVER learn, do they?

 

People had finally gotten sick of dinosaur-monsters chasing people around on islands or in secluded forests where the SAME SHIT happens again and again and AGAIN. They said as much after Dominion came out. So what does the brain trust decide we want in a reboot movie?? Dinosaur-monsters chasing people on a motherfucking island ONCE AGAIN.
 

I don’t have words for my bafflement and despair.

Honestly, it's a franchise that's limited in its options.

 

Dinosaurs in jungle.

Dinosaurs in concrete jungle.

 

What about dinosaurs in water? 'Jurassic Sea'—coming in 2028!

 

But since 'Rebirth' is a reboot, I'm not surprised they're doing a back to basics island deal. We'll see where they go from there.

I'm not sure I'd call it a reboot.

 

A reboot for me is like Batman Begins or The Amazing Spiderman, where the entire continuity and events from the movies of the franchise that came before is disregarded and a new timeline begins.

 

As far as we know, Rebirth won't throw in the garbage the events from the previous Jurassic movies. Even if it doesn't mention what happened on them, they still "happened" in the movie's universe.

Dinosaurs on a spaceship! Maybe the new Jurassic Park movie and Spielberg's upcoming UFO movie are one in the same! The chance of Williams scoring it is now 99%!
