MemberCompsognathusJun-10-2013 9:09 PMFirst off, let me acknowledge the fact that I didn't come up with this idea completely by myself. I found the initial theory at like 2 am last Monday. I merely improved it. Now let's get down to business.
I heard a rumor that, following the statement by Jack Horner suggesting that a new dinosaur described as "terrifying" would be the main antagonist of Jurassic Park IV, a small dinosaur may be the bad guy. A pterosaur as a matter of fact.
Now before you close this page out and decide not to see JP4 out of disappointment, let me say that this isn't just any flying rat. This is Jeholopterus.

Jeholopterus was a prehistoric vampire. Well maybe. According to some paleontologists, the creature's prominent upper fangs would have been used to puncture the thick skin of a dinosaur, while the small lower fangs would be used to squeeze the wound, pumping blood into the blood-sucker's mouth.

Although it wasn't exactly the largest of the monsters, it certainly was terrifying (especially with it's creepy cat face and furry little rat body. Oh and the vampire thing.).
However, the size issue can be taken out by a little bit of exaggeration on the part of JP4's production team, much like was done with the Velociraptors. With a little change to the vampire bat dinosaur thing, making it a man-sized (or bigger) blood-sucking horror in large numbers, I can see something similar to the Terapus Mordax from the 2005 King Kong remake.

MemberCompsognathusJun-10-2013 9:26 PMI think it would be cool. Still think they should stick to large theropods though.

MemberCompsognathusJun-10-2013 10:41 PMHOLY S*** thats scarier as Dodgson without a hat...
This would be interesting *and some may crap themselves during the film* But it doesn't fully fit in, i mean sure with some adjustments and stuff but still, teradons wouldn't fully fit in as the main antagonist *or a medium antagonist like raptors in jp 3* I think if we do see something like this it will affect the movie entirely...

MemberCompsognathusJun-11-2013 1:03 AMI actually first learned about this little guy on source fed. Medium antagonist at least. His habits are even nastier when you've been studying him and learn some other things this guy does. Some have said that at night it would flock and rampage on anything unfortunate enough to be in it's way. I can see them eating people for sure.

MemberCompsognathusJun-12-2013 2:48 PMWhile that things does scare the heck out of me, I don't like it. Steven Spielberg said while doing the 1st film that he didn't want a monster movie, he wanted reality. And if you put that as the main face of the JP logo, you might as well throw Dora the explorer in there too. I think the main predator should be a marine animal, like
Ipolureodon.

MemberCompsognathusAug-10-2013 6:10 PMHoly chiz that's scary. Giant vampire eating people in JP4? A little out of place and unlikely but it could work...
