It had seemed that Jurassic World, much like its rumoured lead dinosaur, had gone invisible. Nothing had been released surrounding the project, other than the (in my opinion) brilliant casting of Chris Pratt as the leading man. So when the Jurassic World website launched online, featuring a countdown to what was Thanksgiving, not much speculation was raised other than 'oh we maybe getting a trailer'. However, when news broke yesterday that a certain other film was going to release a trailer this Friday, the internet lost its mind! Thus I feel the reason we are witnessing the early premiere is a result of panic selling, getting out in front of the competition to ensure that this feature does not get swiftly forgotten.
However, did Jurassic World have to panic. By the look of this trailer... Hell No! Of course Star Wars would dominate the weekend, but my life this trailer could stand against pretty much anything that could be offered. I love this trailer and I can safely say that my ticket is already sold. And Chris Pratt now holds the title of the most consistently brilliantly trailers appeared in of twenty fourteen.
The iconic shot of the doors to the park opening and in this instance revealing a fully functioning theme park is just a mouth watering concept. This trailer is terrific in its use of sweeping shots to convey the various features available at the park, for example those gyrospehere look awesome and a concept that is seemingly viable. As well as this, Jurrasic World is now incorporating aspects of Sea World, hopefully they learnt their lesson from Blackfish. But those shots of the dinosaur, which I don't know the name of as I was somewhat not interested in dinos at school, emerging out the water to eat the shark was brilliant, fully capturing the expectations of a modern day theme park.
The single most impressive aspect of this trailer though was its refinement. It would have been easy for the creators behind this trailer to just throw dino after dino at us, with no real sense of class or dignity. Instead, they allowed this trailer to end with a sense of mystery, rather than spoil the picture by giving us the entire film in just under three minutes. As a result, I'm completely eager to see what this mystery creature is that will doubtlessly escape and terrorise the parks population and compelled to see this picture in June 2016.
Also, isn't amazing to see Chris Pratt look like like the real deal in this role. It is amazing to think that prior this years Summer movie blockbuster Pratt, especially to me in the United Kingdom, was a relatively unknown actor. A nobody in may peoples eyes. Wow, look how much Marvel can do for you. He seems to be settled in nicely here a young Harrison Ford in many ways, but only time will tell whether he has the Movie muscle, as opposed to the actual muscle, to carry this film.
Overall, be it too low an expectations, or the result of many terrible sequels, Jurassic World prior this trailer was picture that I felt was just going to be a meh addition to franchise that had out lived itself. However, after viewing less than 3 mins of footage I can safely say that this does not seem to be the case. Everything surrounding the Jurassic World film seems to be as alive or full of energy as the dinosaurs roaming the park. So far a must see for me.
