I think it's a little early to call for a sequel, I mean, To draft a Story board and the such can be done from now to the release of JW, But Am I the only one feeling like Universal is jumping the gun here?
Theres a possible chance this movie could flop, Extremely unlikely, It is still a factor.
If this movie turns out to be a let down (Making most revenue off of Nostalgia), Universal will still make a sequel which could flop heavily.
I hold faith in Colin though, If anyone can pull it off, it's going to be him.

MemberCompsognathusMar-04-2015 8:25 AMHi all, long-time lurker and first time commentor on the JW forums!
I guess the idea of a JW dequel depends heavily on how JW fares as has already been stated. If we get a film that hols true to the original vision of JP but brings it into the 21st century in a believable and enjoyable manner then that certainly opens it up in a stronger way to the idea of a sequel. (Looks like the film should be pretty damn good so hopefully that'll be that side of the case sorted!)
The issue to me though is this: what would be the point of a sequel? Obviously, as far as Universal/Legendary are concerned, if JW fares well in the box office, there's good reason to make a sequel: Money. It'll bring in the dollar big time, so they'd be happy to do so. But from an in-universe perspective, I'm struggling to see where else they could go.
JP obviously highlighted the issues of playing God and how, despite all failsafes you might set up, life will 'find a way'. TLW was another lesson in not messing with creatures that shouldn't be in our timeline, leaving them to their own devices in Isla Sorna and not trying to force another JP situation (I think Peter Ludlow learned that the hard way...) and JP3, well... I dunno, Spinosaurus is big? xD
Of course, looks like JW will be another lesson in not playing God a la the original JP film - particularly with the introduction of Indominus Rex. But after that, whre do you go? You've done bringing diosaurs back from extinction and you've done a few attempts to reign them in to a construct that works for you (a theme park). JW will show that even when you've got a construct that works and you push the barriers too much (with I-Rex), the system will fail and Ian Malcolm was still right all along. (life finds a way, right?) - so after this, I dunno where else the team could go.
I'd be concerend they'd go down the 'horrible dino mutation route!' which I think a lot of fans wouldn't enjoy (myself included - the way I-Rex has been presented is believable and cool but if we get a whole hoard of Mutatosaurus Rexoceratopses I think I'd not be on board...) but yeah.
I dunno! Maybe they'd come up with something crazy cool, and maybe I'm not exploring many options. But yeah just my two cents at this time. Certainly an interesting proposition and it'd be interesting see where they go with a sequel - I'm open to seeing what happens - but I guess I know what I don't want from a sequel. :P
If you read all of this stupidly long message, congrats. If not, I don't blame you, it took forever to type out >__<

MemberCompsognathusMar-05-2015 6:12 AMAlso, there COULD be sequels. I dunno, but i am wondering one thing, how could Chris Pratt (Owen or Star Lord in Gaurdians Of The Galaxy), tame VELOCIRAPTORS? I dont understand why they could be tameable NOW and not in the first 3 movies.

Not sure what you base that on. Even if the movie sucked and everyone that saw it, hated it, it still wouldn't flop, financially.
1. It's part of much-loved franchise.
2. It's 15 years in the making.
3. The trailer set YouTube viewing records.
The opening weekend will make enough money to catalyze the sequel into existence. See: Godzilla 2014
