Jesus! I hope there joking seriously, I mean I grew up on Jurassic Park, The Lost World was okay and 3 was a big dissapointment, but I honestly can say that if that is the plot of the movie then I wont go see it.

Really? I would've watched a live-action Dino Riders movie when I was 8, but not now.

Man, and here I thought my powers of 'cynical prick'ness were at their peak-- I was thinking 'What could they POSSIBLY say about this movie that would make me have less respect for industry executives..'

And then they drop this. ****ing live-action dinobots, without the 'transformers' part. Please, if there is anything holy about this universe, let someone high up get fired over this. At least humiliated or balled out in front of the entire office. Maybe dumped by his girlfriend while he's proposing. Scalding hot coffee poured on his lap? ..I say 'his' because --and take this however you want-- no woman, straight or lesbian, would/could/should come up with putting weapons on dinosaurs.

lemme see the cast rounded up...and a trailer...and i'll make a better judgement. the thing that gets me is the "weapons" part. they're already frikkin dinosaurs...what else do you want? just say they were trained by mike vick...and they feed on the enemy the military designates. i COULD see that working, but i think everybody is picturing the worst. it just depends on where the plot goes with the idea. to the warzone and you see the dino's in action? or the military base where they've being held and somehow escape(minus the "weapons")...causing panic? its not off to a good start though but, we know one SUPPOSED part of the movie. you can't COMPLETELY write it off just yet...but get your pens ready

OK, having just read about the horrible thread about dinosaurs with guns.
(A concept i saw in some jurassic park comic books about the dinos being bread for combat/also it happenned in some Aliens comic.)

I have decided to share a brief description for a Jurassic Park 4, movie script i was too lazy to write a few years back, as i love JP. And you MUST read the books if you havent already.

OK, here goes.... and it is NOT a complete story, just some basics.

.....

The story kicks off on the Original Island of Isla Nubar, site of the actual Park, and not site B, featured in both the sequels.

It is 5 years since JP 3. And the Park has been re modified and is now fully functioning to the general public. Hammond finally got his wish.

The park has been open for 2 months, and has been a world wide phenominon. However the park has a very diffrent re-designed layout. Instead of all the perimeter fences as they were, they have been replaced by huge white observation tunnels (like in Jaws 3) the tunnels have electrified fences on the outsides of them. One advantage of the tunnels is that they can cross scenic valleys and mountain ranges making the views more spectacular. Also added safety.

Also, instead of seperating ALL of the dinosaurs, some of them are free to mingle, alowing nature to take its course and for the viewers to witness real dino fights and births etc..

There is also a strong military presence on the island as extra security. including a ranger station, with helicoptor etc...

Anyways, this being JURASSIC PARK, something has so go sh*t-shaped at some point. My idea is for terrorists (either religious fanatics or animal rights protesters) to pose as engineers, they manually shut down the power grid, and have created a bomb that blows a huge section out of the tunnel. All the safety doors behind the visitors are now locked, and a band of survivors have to battle their way forwards, which will include crossing a canyon, riding up a river(as in the first JP book) where they face the T-rex and lots of spitting Dilophosaurs. They also have to travel through volcanic areas where the Raptors nest. The military has to search for them and get involved in some hot shootem-up action, etc etc...


Well, thats roughly it, without me writing a book of it all, something i would love to do.
So if you liked that idea, you may also like my ideas for a ghostbusters 3, and various other storys iv dreamed up. If you hated it, well, suck my b*lls!

heres a poster i made too...

I'm pretty sure they're trying to keep the plot under wraps, and this was just a joke when asked what it was about.

"So what's the script about?"

"Oh, you know, Dinosaurs getting trained by the military to become elite super soldiers. That sort of thing."

This CAN NOT be real. NOBODY is stupid enough to greenlight that.

There was a review of John Sayles' script the JOHN SAYLES who gave us the scripts for the original PIRHANA and ALLIGATOR, not to mention all of his own independent greatness. Anyway, that review of that script was extremely positive.

I just dug around the JP4 forums here on RT and saw that this was in the script review from AICN in 2004. Which makes me suspicious about the truthfulness of this new report. However, IMDB lists Monahan and Sayles as the writers just like in that script, so who knows...

Are you guys mad? This sounds GREAT! Face it: Jurassic Park is the only truly great movie of the series. The Lost World got muddled up and made no sense, and then completely lost itself when it switched to San Francisco, and then the third movie was just pure ****. They might as well go a ridiculous route with the fourth movie. As long as it doesn't take itself as seriously as 2 and 3 did, and it's fun to watch, then I'll consider it a worthy addition to the franchise.

battfink that sounds a little too much like the first one with minor details changed around. we already saw what happens when the park goes to hell.... As too the plot details we all knew this movie was going to be some ridiculous crap. As soon as I heard JP IV was confirmed I sighed and thought "GREAT!, as if the 3 one didn't make the series look bad enough." The plot could be a lot worse. like if rich people started paying to have the last of the dinos on the islands brought to their homes to be made pets. or if something happened and the dinos were shrank down and only 5 survived the process and some little kid finds them and tries to hide them in his room so his parents don't find out...

I heard this exact plot rumor several years ago. I'm pretty sure this is total BS.

IF this was, in fact, part of the plot, I have a hard time believing that Spielberg would give it his thumbs up.

Would not at all be surprising to me at all if they think this is a good idea. I sure hope they are joking though.

Or maybe its worded that way to create hype.... maybe what they really are doing for a plot is the dinos are trained to CARRY weapons, like transport, and the government's armys use them for battle not the dinos... okay its a stretch but I can see that working better than dino "terminators" as this suggests

OK guys:

If I had to choose between a third sequel that takes itself seriously but is awful anyway (Jurassic Park 3-style) or a third sequel that is completely insane and with a plotline crazier than pretty much any plotline I've ever heard of before (Jurassic Park 4-style), I'd definitely choose the latter. You all are right; the series is dead. The first one was great, the second one was subpar, the third one was garbage. Do we really need another boring and predictable add-on to the series? If they're going to really shame the series further by adding another sequel, I'd rather they have a complete blast making it so that the movie will be hugely entertaining as well. It's going to be awful, don't think I'm saying it won't be. But if they play their cards right, this could be one mother of a so-bad-it's-good movie. Which is more than we'd get with a Jurassic Park 3 repeat.

This indeed was the concept behind one of the story drafts a year or two ago. It's not a joke. Actually, the dinosaurs-with-weapons angle was what Spielberg apparently latched onto as the "big idea" that this film needed in order to rejuvinate the franchise. I read a lengthy story synopsis for this version of JP4 . . . which included an elite police squad of raptors . . . each given Roman-origin names. One of the raptors was called Spartacus (Yes, I feel your pain). However, later, when the film went into quieter development, onther story plans were reported while the script became clearer. Actually I'm surprised by this article because it harkens back to one of the earlier script notions . . . which I didn't think would last through development. Either the current bulletin is blindly referring to that earlier report and sloppily insinuating that it is part of the current plot, or else the concept has survived this long in development (which has to be a quantum impossibility, right?)

If i recall correctly, none other than John Sayles wrote a JP script - as a joke (i thought) for Spielberg and co. that involved gun toting, cigar chomping, wise cracking dinos. My impression was Spielberg laughed it off. Did I read that on RT like 3 years ago? Probably I read it on AICN. So, either it's a rumor floated by someone too dense or too lazy dig up anything real, or Universal just put this out to move the JP franchise up the "it list", or perhaps it's real and Universal really is just that stupid. Howzabout Morgan Freeman shows up as God and commands Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum to live as Adam and Eve on Isla Nubar with the dinosaurs - just like it was in the Bible! Of course this dosen't sit well with Sam Neill...

hey as long as they kill jeff goldblum, i'm okay! nah, i don't mean it, i

like jeff's acting as long as he continue to act as often as he does now, which is

almost never. but hey, he was in the first two and they were fine and dandy. so, maybe

i should be nicer to him and use my vengence on sam neil. well, he was on the third one

and that was a disgrace to the legacy of every dinosaur who ever lived plus hey

speilberg how did that script rewrite work out, huh? yeah, if you didn't know he did

rewrite the script the last minute and he produced that wonderful story. in the end, it

was only wonderful for spielberg and his bank account. so, i hope i guess they bring

back goldblum, as at least a lucky charm, especially with this script. if this is true

this movie could unseat battlefield earth and folks this movie may end up being too bad

even for the sci-fi standards. and thats saying a lot. but i got feeling this has to be

some phiny facade like made up titles for well heralded projects.

buddy, did you see the last one. imagine how far that piece of crap fell from

the original sequel that was just good. face it spielberg gave us a visual masterpiece

for dinosaurs that may never be matched in the original movie. still, considering how

lost and all time dreadful storymaking his third installment was, i think the man is

beginning to lose his LEGENDARY IMAGINARY Spark that allowed him to do all those amazing

fantasy films: e.t.encounters of the third kind, jurassic park. its gone, people just

look at war of the worlds, the last j.p. movie and now this! Steven, Listen to me stick

to serious dramas and war movies because the thing that made you an all time legend,

your unparallel imagination, is dead! its sad but true.

As for the post, if this is a joke, it's not even funny; too bad an after-taste.
If not, the peanut-brain who came up it must be retarded all the way back to the Jurassic; a serious misstep in JP's already crippling evolution, nay regression.

Cast Milla Jovavich to play a half naked genetically altered amazon woman who fights the dinosaurs with her bare hands and I'm sure Spielberg would lose hope in humanity and resort to alcoholism to make everything right again.

Smart dinosaurs with guns, no, military use seems b-movie yet salvageable and a logical next step in a way. Why wouldn't they want there hands on something so powerful? Also to improve upon the original methods of their creation?

Pitch: So, we got this idea to use the Jurassic Park Franchise to tell a story about Dinosaurs that are equipped with rockets and machine guns to wage war, as their being controlled by the Government.

Investor: Brilliant!!! Here's $100 million.

Calvin and Hobbes! that's hilarious.
anyway when I read this "news" a year or two ago the idea was credited to Steven Spielberg. and really a movie about giant robots transforming into cars made $300 million meanwhile a kid wizard, a guy with the abilities of a spider and a giant green ogre with a talking donkey and cat have all been ruling the box office. So from a business stand point I don't see how the dinosuars with guns idea is really that bad.
it might be a stupid film but you know what I'm enough of a child at heart to think "T-rex's in F-16's" and think "hey that's funny, I'll have to see that."

and at the very least I would think that this news means they are trying to reinvent or redifine the series instead of just doing the exact same thing again like what Bat-Fink is suggesting. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with your idea except as you point out yourself, it's all been done before either in previous JP's or in Jaws etc.
so hey here's something that sounds original so let's give it a chance...at the very least it will probably be the only way we can see anything close to what a Turok Dinosaur Hunter movie would look like.

That's a f***** awesome idea bat-fink. I can't say I approve of the poster, but I do approve of the great plot. It's new, yet it goes back to the roots of why we all love Jurassic Park in the first place. Dinosaurs stalking people in the wilderness. None of this T-rex running through San Diego BS. The most successful sequels are the ones that return to the formulas (with new ideas obviously) that made them great. I'd like to see more of the ideas from the Jurassic Park and Lost World BOOKS be brought into the movies. You can see elements of the first book in the original movie, but also in the Lost World (the compys (sp?) attacking the little girl) and in the third (Birdcage idea, as well as riding down the river, although not exactly the same). God I hope this latest news is a farce. BTW, has anyone played Trespasser? Although it failed as a game, I loved it because of how ambitious it was, and I think it could potentially make a good story. Go the 28 Days Later way and make a sequel that brings in entirely new characters looking at the story from a different angle.

"Monkeys Invade the Moon!" -A group of super-intelligent monkeys are created by Greenpeace in an attempt to destroy the nations cheese industry, which is causing massive clouds of evaporated CO2 to cut down the rainforest. Unfortunately (fortunately?), the monkeys decide that the moon is the main source of cheese in the galaxy, and hijack pumped up Yugo hatchbacks to dig into the moon's core so they can turn it all into fondu. Unfortunately (fortunately?), they are intercepted by George W. Bush on his way to the Abraham.

While I still think the movie is going to be like Stephen Segall (a bloated money grubbing has been that was never all that amazing to begin with) (ok, so the original JP was a classic, anyway), this log line isn't new. I believe Harry Knowles did an expose on a similar plot line for JP4 about three years ago. I hope this idea isn't true, but as the two plots seem almost identical {with the Knowles article delving deeply into the absolute absurdity of it all (think Hellboy, but without the witty self-awareness)}, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Bat-Fink, I must say I dreamt of a Plot like that for a while now(Especially wanting to see the Diliphosauras's in action) Plus theres 5 islands and I hated that the other 2 movies were on Ilsa Sorna and how in the JP3 the The army and Navy came and not a single Dinosaur was shot(Thats when I gave up hope on JP and praid for a Dino Crisis movie Lol)Also the Raptors were beautifully made but not nearly as violent as the other films(In other words they were Jurassic Pussies) which made JP3 very boring(Especially when the only people killed were practically out of focus)Plus I don't wanna see any Dino's in the city again cuz it took away the Mystic aura of the movie.Here's some things I like and hate. Like:People with weapons Hate:Never getting to see them actually use them, Like:Dr.Allen Grant Hate:Dr.Allen Grant in JP3(Im sorry he wasn't as cool and Bad-*** as the first one), Like:Vicious Velociraptors Hate:Seeing no one getting jumped on by one(Like in JP2) Or getting their face ripped off(Like in JP1), Like:The T-rex Hate:Spinosaurus(I'm sorry I like Dinosaurs that actually get the job done Lol), Like:Keira Knightly and all of her glory(If she stars in this movie) Hate:If Dinos with guns appear in JP4(First off I won't see it, and secondly you might as well make a Turok movie if you're dying to see crap like that), Like:The Flying Dinos(Wanna see more of those) Hate:The Lucky comments(Lucky strap, Lucky bag in JP2 was alright....But stop with Lucky ****), Like:I'd like to see Water Dinosaurs in action(Ex:Would take place in a Jurassic Park below-level marine/aquarium room) Hate:Seeing no one bite a Compy's head off while getting attacked by a group of them, Like:Roland(The bald hunter dude in JP2) Hate:When Grant had a Nightmare on the plane and dreamt of a talking Raptor(No point whatsoever), Like:Ian Malcolm and the humour he brought to the screen Hate:That stupid Phone ring in JP3, Like:Those head-butting dinosaurs Hate:Not being able to see a fight with one of those head-butting dinosaurs with a raptor, but instead see T-Rex get his neck snapped by a Spino without bitting a chunk off the Spinos back, Like:Seeing two Big-*** T-Rex's like in JP2 going after people Hate:Seeing a Spino Do sweet F**K all for 2 hrs, Like:Being able to see a homo-sexual try running from a Raptor(Just kidding.....But it would be funny considering the way a *** runs.....That or a Raptor using a Door-Bell Lol), Hate:Knowing that the Producers and Directors probably wont even see what I wrote and was just a waste of my time to write all of this.....But n e wayz man I'd be happy to see a concept like u wrote Bat-Fink, it would also give the movie a chance to explore different locations.N e wayz in my opinion That Dinos with Guns is just a rumour and nothing more.....unless Speilberg is on LSD then that's a different story.N e wayz I'm new on this site and I hope u like my opinions.Thank you and have urselves a blast ;P

Now before I begin, if there is anyone from Rotten Tomatoes who wants verification of my insider knowledge, then contact you may through the email registered to this account & I will present the necessary documents as long as my identity isn't revealed. So without further adieu... Allow me to clear the air by offering some insight concerning JP4.

First off, all of the JP1 fundamentalists who has been calling for the death of the McGuffins used in the two previous sequels & the return of the Nedry shaving canister... your wish will be granted, courtesy of the Biosyn tracking device in the canister & a few salvageable genetic samples.

Second, you aren't going to see dinosaurs with bazookas strapped to their backs. That has to be the most retarded concept that I have ever read & this is especially true for a film who's crux is experimental bioengineering, no matter how far fetched. With that being said, the article isn't completely false.

Biosyn will go behind the back of the U.N. to sell their clones to terrorist regimes & countries that are controlled by terrorist regimes who will utilize the dinosaurs as weapons, by intoducing them into the food chain of enemy nations in order to cripple natural resources & agriculture of their foes.

I hope that makes some of you feel better.

Producers have decided that reviving the Jurassic Park series has serious potential and they arent going to screw it completely with childlike senerios as suggested by some "leaks". These were intentionally realeased false scripts to keep people guessing and finally giving everyone a wave of relief when it is something totally different that actually hits the big screen. So.... who am I and how do I know? And what is JP4 going to actually be about..... well I cant answer all those questions... but I will say that at least two islands will be involved, the right actors will be back and the story takes a new turn in a totally obvious direction that nobody really thought of .... until now.... Cheers!

Bat-fink, not bad, but could use a little work. And also remember, a lot of great movies sound goofy when you cut them down to blurbs. It's A Wonderful Life: A guy's life sucks, so he tries to kill himself, but is rescued by a dim-witted angel who teaches him the meaning of life. Star Wars: A farmboy is taken away from his farm to train to be a mystical "Jedi Knight" who can move objects with their mind and fight with laser swords. Etc, etc. So there might be a reasonable explanation for the training and armament. In any case Spielberg vetoed it, he thought it was too improbable (no duh). Joe Johnston is directing again, but Spielberg is producer.

Also, stop ripping on JP3! I agree, compared to the first movie, it was awful. But when viewed as it is- a sequel not based on the books, made by a new director- it's perfectly respectable. Sure it's improbable, but hey, tight-asses: It's called SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF. Jaws was more unlikely than JP3- why didn't the shark go to the beach, with a veritable feast of people instead of following three guys chucking steaks in the water?

"there will not be any dinosaurs with bazookas strapped to their backs [...] Biosyn will go behind the back of the United Nations to sell their clones to terrorist regimes & countries that are ran by terrorist regimes, who will in turn smuggle the clones into the cities and nations of their enemies in order to ravage the local & economic livestock, agriculture, local food chain, & all other natural resources."

Uh... I honestly preferred the bazooka idea. That at least was only peurile.

1) The UN has nothing whatsoever to do with animal trading. That's customs issue for each individual country.
2) Why sell to terrorists and 3WCs who have almost no money when you can sell to the military with feckloads?
3) Smuggle dinosaurs into the US? Given the vast, VAST number of ways that terrorism could be performed using material in the US, why would they expose themselves to this huge risk? I don't think any other terrorist attack in the history of mankind has ever required smuggling as a part. And smuggling live, dangerous animals? That's just insane.
4) Dinoterrorism is the worst idea since the invention of the term "wardrobe malfunction". It's not even amusingly bad like the C&H "T-Rex's in F-16s" idea. It's just depressingly dumb.

Still, at least it wil give us two new words. "Dinoterrorism"... and "Scriptwriting Malfunction"!

That new storyline sounds something out of a Matthew Reilly novel... oh wait... it practically is.

yeah it's not the best... i like the sound of bat-fink's one, its kind of similiar to the jurassic park: operation genesis video game.

or another idea

some random corporation pays some groups to hunt the dinosaurs down and the more dangerous the dinosaur, the more money he pays. (maybe televises it?)

or...

i heard/read about this plot that there is some kind of disease they discover and it comes from the cretaceous period and it threatens to kill off the dinosaurs, but then gets passed from dinosaur to human or something.

yes i know the second one's crap but its better than gun-toting G.I.-Saurs....

i think...

this sounds like theyve run out of ideas for the film so they make it cheesy with dino-bots.wtf is going to watch this. how about my version okay so theyre at america and it shows the military talking about these project dino(armed dinos) and some dudes like how are we going to do that?then the captain smiles. then it goes to the sams house and they ask sam to come with them and hes like *** off ull die. so they leave and go and get killed until somehow one of the dinos get caught and it is the t-rex so they cal the old dude in the first and 2nd film and he geneticaly makes more and adds guns. then they attack the dinos on the island with their guns and capture al then bring em to america when suudenly they get free and attack the city and mankinds future is at risk. after about 500 deaths sam does some heoric thing and stops the dinos and then the military kill em all thenthe end when thers one more left in the end....huh how about ti huh pretty good eh.

pffff don't worry people, i don't think they are working this long on the 4th installment to release dinosaurs carrying weapons. whoever came up with that story is obviously lieing. their are many dino and jurassic park fans and i'm sure if they made the 4th jurassic park a govermental dinosaur army movie, no one would go see it, their for the creators would have to be half witted to make it because the movie wouldn't make any money. i don't think speilberg would ever allow that lmao and as for laura dern, she was asked to return in this film, it hasn't been confirmed yet.

I liked the first Jurassic Park. The second was okay, and the third teetered on the edge of cliche and disappointing. But was watchable.

But, if that is the plot of the fourth...ugh! I mean, how do they think they can turn wild dinosaurs into dinotopia warriors? It's just STUPID! Also, I'm having a little trouble believing that Kiera Knightly would sign onto something as childish and heathanistic as that! Surely she has enough Hollywood power to pick and choose her movies, and if she chose something like that....
Well, even if it is like that, I might see it just to see how much they tore apart Micheal Crichton's classic (even though he only wrote Jurassic Park and The Lost World, not JP3 or JP4), and maybe to laugh at their idiocy.

It's part of the ruling elite's plan to start bombarding us with crappy movies, destroying our childhood franchises. Together with the shutting down of internet movie downloads (e.g. pirate bay) it serves to disillusion us and leave us with only television to turn to so they can manipulate us more easily.
