Jurassic World producer Frank Marshall recently sat down with Collider to discuss a number of films he's currently involved with, including Goonies 2, a new Bourne film and of course, Jurassic World. During the interview Marshall discusses the Jurassic World plot leaks from last year but more importantly explains how the main focus for this film was to create a solid story and not just something nice to look at. Read on for excerpts from the interview regarding Jurassic World:
COLLIDER: Is that why it took some time to get to Jurassic World?
MARSHALL: That’s one of the reasons, yeah. It was about story.
COLLIDER: And people expect so much more now.
MARSHALL: Oh, they do! I believe that the audience wants to discover the movie in the movie theater. I don’t care what you say, with all of the leaks, I think it’s a spoiler. You want to see Star Wars like you saw Star Wars the first time when you had no idea, or Back to the Future or Goonies or Bourne. You don’t want to know what’s coming.
COLLIDER: Jurassic Park was one of those films because you saved the big reveal of the dinosaur for the movie, but that was such a technological breakthrough. Is there another breakthrough you can make on the fourth film?
MARSHALL: Not technologically. You’re right, everybody has seen a dinosaur now, so it can’t be about that. We have to have a good story.
