Baby dinosaurs! I'm in love with them!
Too bad there's no baby rex. :(
Finally! An HD Jurassic World TV Spot that is actually in HD! Also...Aw! The petting zoo is so cute!
Here is a fullscreen version without a watermark either
Losing my mind with excitement.
Tl;DR if you want to get technical, the evidence states that most dinosaurs did not have feathers. Some did.
Anything else is guess work, not based on evidence.
LOPSQUID - don't confuse some with a lot. This is precisely what some paleontologists do, for lack of more compelling information. They embellish.
Yes, there are some fossizlized feather impressions on some species. Beyond those, there is no evidence for feathers on other dinosaurs. One cannot just assume that other species were feathered, because some were. That would be like looking at fossils of a peacock and a crocodile and assuming the crocodile had feathers, because the peacock left feather impressions....?
This is the extreme liberty that many scientists have taken, and because there is so very very very little real information in the study of paleontology, theories with no evidence get expounded upon for the sake of sensationalism.
TRUTH: a vew few species of dinosaur were known have had featheres, and it is reasonable to believe that other species were genetically prediposed to quils or feathers...but likely did not manifest in the living creatures. Like, a recessive gene turned off.
Nice find! Really interesting...don't know why, but I am so interested in this creature already, again don't know why! XD Nice, always cool for new dino's to show up.
Awesome! Great job Manuel! :D
Always a Joy seeing some of his work!
Welcome to this side of Scified!
We do have a welcome thread if you'd care to comment there.

I'd be interested to even see how they planned out the River cruise. Y'know... with them avoiding Practical effects and all for a majority of the shots.
Awesome! I was hoping for this to be ported from the PS3! Hoping it'll show up on Steam.
*rolls eyes*
People in general will bitch about almost anything.
If I'm not mistaken, the original JP was one of the most accurate depictions of dinosaurs of the time. Now, 22 years later, the fourth instalment is coming out, and the dinosaurs are staying true to the franchise.
So what if they aren't scientifically accurate? Most people don't care. Most people want stuff to blow up, big creatures destroying stuff and fighting, and so on. No one really cares about accuracy. No one ever bashed a movie because a car exploded after driving off a cliff (they don't explode, they just kinda lose their shape).
Suchomimus resides in the Cretaceous Cruise.
Hopefully we'll see it in the film, and I've heard rumors of getting a novel-like scene of the Suchomimus attacking a kayak like Rexy attacked the raft.
Rexy has her enclosure to herself. If anyone were to place another dinosaur with Rexy, she'd slaughter them for food and territorial reasons.
Thanks The campaing will be up soon :D
Peter zanetti there may not be much evidence of feathers on larger dinosaurs but there is alot of evidence on smaller dinosaurs



You can actually post this over on the JW forums, since it's dinosaur related. I'll move this there. More people are on those forums and it would reach the proper audience. I'll sticky it so it stays visible for awhile. :D
Claiming that dinosaurs had feathers, and Jurassic Park/World are inaccurate without them, is fraudulent.
Only one very narrow minded camp of scientists believe that dinosaurs were a bunch of giant chickens. The ACTUAL EVIDENCE for feathered dinosaurs is pathetically slim.
The REALITY of the FACTUAL EVIDENCE, is that some species of dinosaurs may have been genetically prediposed to quils and/or feathers. Whether or not they manifested in the living animals is UNKNOWN.
Judging by the data that Tyrant King gave us, this would be 50/50. And guys, don't forget that we know very few thing about Giganotosaurus(and compared to T.rex...nothing), so unless you have a time machine in your garage than don't talk about some things as facts.
Dou you know guys what's funny in this? They complain about about dinosaurs in a movie that's mainly for amusement, and there are still "paleofails" in museums and documentaries, things that mainly for education! At first fix those, and than complain about JW.
I hope I-rex would eat them.
I love the fact that all of the trailers/tv spots have used the same samples of footage with an extra couple seconds thrown in with each new spot.
I can't resist watching them, but I also don't want to see the whole movie like this. Trevorrow has done a great job with these edits of keeping us hyped while not letting the entire cat out of the bag.
When Godzillla was released last year, the various trailers had revealed a lot (too much as it turned out), and there had also been multiple 90 sec scenes released in advance of the film, which also revealed way to much. When I saw the film in the theatre, I felt like I had seen most of the interesting parts of the movie. Only the (short) final battle between Godzilla and the Mutos was completely new.
@Peter they get the TV Spots from a website called iSpot TV which the site unfortuatnley doesn't have HD Support. We will just have to wait until Universal Pictures release them, hopefully soon!
No, they can't instantly grow feathers, but Jurassic World is set 22 years after the first Jurassic Park film.
If they managed to create an "entirely new species" within about two decades, then why not give the explanation that they also have more complete DNA strands of actual species and give a few dinos some feathers here and there? Surely their science department has made progression in such a massive span of time.
And like I said, just because something has feathers does not make it less intimidating. Take a vulture or a hawk for example.
You're not seeing my point here. This is JURASSIC PARK, not a zoo of cute mutant birds. They can't just instantly grow feathers, that'll just ruin the connection to the previous films.
I don't think the scientists are hating on the movie because of it; I think it's more that they're mad because of the lost potential of education.
Let's face it: the extent of the general public's knowledge of dinosaurs is set on what they see in the Jurassic Park movies. What they see on screen is what they believe the creature to really be like.
By making an inaccurate dinosaur in a newer film, you're giving a wide audience the wrong idea, which is where scientists protest. That false idea, no matter how inaccurate, out numbers the correct one. It will be years until the false information dies out.
Take the whole Zilla name change for example. In 2004, Toho aquired and recopyrighted the Godzilla 1998 deisgn and character as "Zilla" to enforce the idea that it was not a true Godzilla. However, due to this information to be known almost exclusively to Godzilla fans, the general public did not become aware of this until the recent 2014 film, 10 years after the recopyright and 16 years after Godzilla 1998. Up until then, the widespread idea was that Godzilla was just a mutated iguana.
Point is, if false information is widespread, it's going to stick.
And yes, feathered dinosaurs can be VERY intimidating to look at:



You just have to rough up the feathers and not make everything so uniform. It can get freaky-looking fast.
"Now, what Jhon Hammond and Jurassic Park did was create genetically engineered theme-park monsters. Nothing more, nothing less."
-Alan Grant, Jurassic Park 3
Lets try and keep it clean here folks!
And here are my two cents,
Something scientists forget to keep in mind, Is that this is Science Fiction, It takes an Understanding of Science, and then expands it, even if it doesn't scientifically work.
That's the point of Sci-Fi... It's not supposed to be 100% accurate. Granted, they didn't do a lot of consulting with real genetics for this, But that'd have eaten up a lot of time, BUT, they did use other scientists, Such as Jack Horner and Bob barker to help in terms of Dinosaurs.
It's completely futile of them to consider it real, It's like trying to say Alien is a Documentary of Apollo 11. It's not in the slightest.
People will always confuse Movies, For Documentaries, And vice Versa.
scientists just love to bitch and moan... just ignore them an enjoy the movie as it is suppose to be intended for... entertainment and i know im gonna enjoy this...
And birds don't have quills. Certain reptiles do.
Universal hasn't posted any of these themselves yet. When they do, they will be in HD. Kinda weird that they've been posted by random trailer users on YouTube in 360p.
I agree. They don't look like they're from the '80's! Yes, maybe the some of them should have some light feathers or quills, which they do.




(Those last two have light fuzz. Look really closely.)
Pretty accurate to me. Besides, they were cloned, not brought back from the Mesozoic.
It is Garry's Mod with post processing and max quality.
I like the idea, and it was rumored and/or confirmed that the final battle will take place either inside or just outside the original Visitor's Center.
I was hoping the final battle would be like this-
Claire brings Rexy to the Mosasaur Lagoon (maybe she leads it to the truck seen in the LEGO set, or is this how they got her to Jurassic World in the first place?), where the I. rex is getting a drink. Rexy stomps her foot on the ground and lets out a defeaning roar. The Indominus rex turns her head and lets out a slightly quieter roar. The two charge, and the I. rex rams into Rexy and slashes her.
A couple more minutes of fighting.
Rexy now has the I. rex's neck in her jaws and slams her into the walls a few times and tosses her aside. The I. rex charges again, screeching. However, Rexy lowers her head and rams into her adversary just as she begins to slash the Tyrannosaurus. After a lot of effort, Rexy pushes her opponent into the lagoon. As she lets out a roarof victory, it's cut off by the louder roar of the survivng Indominus rex, who begins to climb out of the lagoon just as the Mosasaurus approaches them. The two, now dangerously close to the lagoon, continue.
Half a minute of fighting.
Rexy is on the ground, her body under the Indominus rex's foot. As the I. rex slashes her a few times, Owen, Claire, and the kinds watch helplessly. However, as the hybrid bites down on Rexy's neck, the Queen of Isla Nublar turns her body and kicks her challenger off. She stumbles back, and Rexy takes the moment to stand up. As the Indominus rex gets in a couple more attacks, Rexy rams into her chest and grabs her by the neck. Rexy shakes the creature around like a puppy with a toy before slamming her to the ground. The now-dead creature is pushed into the lagoon, where the Mosasaurus drags it into the depths. Rexy lets out an ear-splitting roar before heavily breathing. Just as the rescue helicopter arrives, Rexy falls to the ground.
Maybe a post-credits scene where she gets back up?
Also, did you make this in Garry's Mod? It looks like it.
Why are all of these not in HD? Is it too hard to make an HD video?
@Peter Zanetti, you can see the Raptor Paddock in one of the trailers in the background of a shot of Main Street/Innovation Center.
Yeah, the Raptor Paddock is not part of the public tour but also not located in the Restricted Zone, they're more of a side project Masrani has set up in hopes that someday the Raptors can be used in a public environment. But they're too smart and too deadly still. That's partially the reason why Owen is attempting to "train" them.
1) Jurassic Park and Jurassic World are movies... NOT documentaries.
2) Science in itself is also nothing more than guess work. So, them claiming any inaccuracies in a MOVIE is hypocritical in itself.
