This is the current image of Triceratops
and this is what Triceratops used to look like.
It still has the same features, but the colours are completely different. Its gone from a dirt-brown to a rhino-grey.
2. Ankylosaurus
This is the current image of Ankylosaurus
and there is also a picture from the side.
This is what it looked like when it first appeared in Jurassic Park III.
Not only has the face colour gone (I think we can agree the missing bit of red on the face isn't something to get worked up about) but the face details have changed slightly. For instance, on the original ankylosaurs cheek there is a large but blunt horn, that couldn't really be used as a major defense. On the new ones cheek the horn is much longer and sharper looking, which makes no sense at all.
I have run out of space, but I will make another one of these soon. If your wondering what it will be called, its Jurassicworld.com dinosaur mistakes 2.

I really enjoyed this topic! Some of the things I didn't realize about the dinosaurs were stated here.

MemberTriceratopsJan-24-2015 9:37 AMI think the Trike in the first movie was a sub-adult, that's why the colour's a bit different. Besides, look at the horns and frill ornaments in both images. The JP horns don't bend and the frill spikes are much sharper, while the JW horns are longer and bend, and the frill spikes are smaller and even a bit duller. Differences b/w age and sex? Almost certain!
The different colours and jaw horn sof the JP3 and JW ankylosaurs could be attributed to the same factors above, or the fact that they're from 2 different islands, probably being 2 different subspecies. Almost all of the JP3 ankylosaurs seen in the movie were born on Sorna, thus making the allele frequency for this hide colour scheme much higher.
Another thing to consider is that more of each dinosaur species' genetic code have been uncovered and incorporated into JW's animals. Claire even said in the trailer that within the last 10 years, more advances in genetics have been made than in 100 years of paleontology. Maybe she not only means that creating I.rex is quite possible, but that the JW dinos are more dinosaur than in JP?

MemberCompsognathusJan-24-2015 10:57 AMThe colours are indeed bland.
But keep in mind, One of the Glorius things about CGI Means that they can change the colour of the Dinosaur in the final cut, Giving it brighter and Better colours.
These are also all grey in colour... Which is bothersome because Unless they purposley did that, It means these are just Basic CG Models intended to satisfy the audience until further.
Although the Site is full of completely Inaccurate statistics...
I think that they're using a "It's a Fictional story" To by pass all real reason for them not having accurate things.
Life cannot be contained, it breaks walls, crashes through barriers sometimes painfully, but uh... Life uh, finds a way

MemberAllosaurusJan-24-2015 11:07 AMI sort of noticed this in the trailer, they better change the colors to be more colorful. The greyness makes them look not as majestic as I personally imagine dinosaurs.
Thanks for posting this, gives me more awareness of the blandness of the dinosaurs, hopefully they're gonna change the colors, afterall it should be easy to do since it's CGI.
IT'S TIME TO DU-DU-DU-DU-DUEL!!!

MemberAllosaurusJan-24-2015 11:49 AMI agree with @Alphadino65 and @x_paden_x here. However, the site's pictures for Stegosaurus and Gallimimus are pretty true to their designs. However, most of the dinosaurs on the website are pretty bland in color.

MemberCompsognathusJan-24-2015 3:34 PMi think the gallimimus actually looked better in the site. you can actually see some of the striping on it unlike the trailer

MemberCompsognathusJan-25-2015 3:35 PMThis is a really interesting list. I never noticed these before. You should continue this.
