Did a thing at NYCC

He was super nice and commented on our commitment to the photo op. I saw way less JP cosplay than I expected considering they had 4 people there for photo ops. Even in Wayne's line there was just 1 other cosplayer.

I would have added more Horror elements onto the Jurassic World Trilogy

I have been rewriting on the Jurassic World Trilogy and tried to implement far more scary scenes to be more comparable to the ones in the novel.

Take note, this is based on my interpretation on how the Jurassic World Trilogy should have gone.

Jurassic World

Rather than implementing a theme park locale, I would have taken the entire film in an isolated town where we see the dinosaurs slowly invading the premise.

The first on-screen dinosaur would have been an Ankylosaurus who would have beaten and smashed at least half a dozen men. I wanted to show the powerlessness of the human townsfolk, whose male members would have looked like they could wrestle crocodile or grappling with leopards. Made worse by the fact that the attacking Ankylosaurus was fatally injured, which meant something worse out there.

I would then add the Velociraptors who would be foreshadowed very eerily, especially when we reached to a scene where it kills one of the townsfolk. To add context, this townsfolk was venturing outside his village/town under grief over losing his child who got taken by "something". He wasn't thinking and blamed a leopard to be responsible. However when he spots one, the leopard was not afraid of him, but more at what's behind him.

This is then escalated to a pair of raptors infiltrating a house that belonged to a family, with the daughter and infant sibling trying to evade detection by the dinosaurs.

But my biggest centerpiece of the film would have been the Quetzalcoatlus. It would have been foreshadowed slowly when the main human characters start piecing together of its presence. The Quetzal would gain a body count, starting with farm animals, pets, and finally children.

Anytime the Quetzal would have been very disturbing as it would have been picking its meal without everyone noticing it. Started off with some random cattle, but things got worse from there when it took the aforementioned child, then finally taking away a dog who was one of the primary characters in the film. When a major human character gets taken to the Quetzal's nest, they would have seen the skull of the child and the dog collar.

Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom

The sequel would be utilizing both old and new dinosaurs to the fullest extent. Even dinosaurs that didn't make too much of impression would be used here, including Triceratops and Ceratosaurus.

One of the new dinosaurs would have been the Deinonychus. At the time of the original Jurassic Park movie, the Deinonychus was the largest dromeosaur around but got overshadowed by Velociraptor. I wanted to bring prominence back to the species as being a minor threat only at the start of the film.

To go into context, the DX Virus would have been the major threat the humans are trying to tackle against, as it already claimed nearly 2 billion lives between Jurassic Park III and the current film. One of the major settings would be at New York where it is left destitute and in ruin, with only a hundred communities being present. Said communities having grown accustomed than they would care to admit and more or less found ways to deal with the dinosaurs that are populating all over New York.

While there are one or two scary moments, the Deinonychus are only there to help showcase the strengths of one of the human protagonists, as well as highlighting the stakes humanity is currently at.

Rexy would appear back in Isla Nublar and would be far more vicious compared to how she was in the first film. She would have a major scene where she battles two adult Triceratops and both parties deal massive blows against one another.

With that being said, one of the highlights of the film is the introduction of the Carnotaurus.

To go into detail, it would be revealed that the DX Virus was based on an ancient disease found in the fossils of the Carnotaurus collected for Wu to study and clone. However, the only "clean" parts of material was not suitable for cloning, so Wu added in the chameleon DNA, along with other genetic samples.

Unfortunately, this is where we have the Carnotaurus being the most terrifying to the most tragic of the dinosaurs.

At Isla Sorna, the Carnotaurus started out about at least a dozen of them, but they suffered severe deformities and internal issues that have been plaguing them. Several of them have died by the time Jurassic Park started but following Hurricane Clarrisa incident, their numbers dwindled, whether the aforementioned problems or by more successful predators, leaving only two Carnotaurus.

The mating pair have spent decades producing offspring but they suffered the same fate as their relatives. In Fallen Kingdom, the two would have produced an offspring who was able to reach juvenile size.

How they got onto Isla Nublar is due to poachers illegally taking dinosaurs off the island, hence the reason for dinosaurs being on the mainland. Unfortunately, an accident occurred and the poachers' ship crashed onto Nublar allowing the Carnotaurus to have a new feeding ground.

Said Carnotaurus would be a major competitor with Rexy, hence the latter's amped aggression.

The Carnotaurus would be able to camouflage but how the parents and juvenile do it is different. When the juvenile camouflage themselves, they breath very heavily thanks to the genetic defects. The parents however are incredibly silent as they have grown accustomed to the deformities and powered through.

In a heart-breaking moments, the juvenile Carnotaurus gets killed by the humans, resulting in the grieving parents to hunt the child's killers down. And they leave an impressive body count as much as Rexy did.

By the near end of the film, only the male Carnotaurus remained and he is on the verge of death as well, resulting in the main character to euthanize to put him out his misery.

Lego Jurassic Park Besucherzentrum

Jetzt kam auch die Ergänzung mit dem Besucherzentrum hinzu. Es passt zwar noch nicht perfekt zum Bunker, aber was nicht ist kann ja noch werden. Dahingehend werde ich mir noch ein bisschen was überlegen wie man die Sachen am besten miteinander verbinden kann.

I got Hammond Collection Spino as a B-Day gift!

Freaking ginormous! A wonderful addition to my collection! I just got into collecting a couple months ago, usually just small and cheap stuff, mainly after carnivorous ones or raptors. But I didn’t expect to be this out of all them!

I found another very rare image of the game Jurassic Park Survival 2001 PS2 Cancelled by Savage Entertainment

These screenshots and this page were found in the magazine PSW Issue #20 September 2001. I posted the images on the Jurassic Park Wiki on the Jurassic Park Survival 2001 Savage Entertainment page.

This screenshot of the plane crashed in the jungle is extremely rare, I first saw her in 2024 in the magazine Play 9/2001. It's one of the scenarios from the jungle level, There are some images of this level on the internet, and it appears several times in the game's trailer.

I got a cretaceous Concept (Post Rebirth)

Now, this is a bit of a far-fetched story idea, but I wanted to try and play around with the idea of intelligent dinosaurs. We've seen this in species such as the Ingen raptors and the myriad hybrid dinosaurs in the franchise, but it's usually restricted to opening doors and coordinating attacks. I've also been wanting to see more variety in threats in the franchise, without falling back on big carnivorous predators (Not that they aren't cool, I just want to see something new), so I began looking for dinos that could fill this role.

So the role I intended to fill with my threat was akin to the raptors of the first film, but I also had it so the characters wouldn't consider it a threat. I finally landed on Gigantoraptor. Why?

Well, the line of thinking is Oviraptorids are very bird-like, and hence it's easy to assume they would have intelligence similar to a bird (since we're being extreme here, let's say these engineered Gigantos have the same intelligence as a corvid). So we could see them do things like velociraptor, such as opening doors and coordination, but also other things like closer teamwork and solving more complex tasks.

But how is an animal that weighs two tons going to fit through a door? You may be asking. While an adult can't exactly pull this off. Nothing is stopping their younger offspring.

I also chose Gigantoraptor because of its similarity to cassowaries. And a giant Cassowary is, I'm sure, someone's nightmare fuel.

Gigantoraptor was omnivorous, so one justification for why younger Gigantos could be hunting and stalking the characters is that they are just hungry young who need to consume a lot to grow to the size of adults.

As for adults, I assumed they would be very territorial and wouldn't be as kind as to have people or other animals in their vicinity, like cassowaries.

Is any of this based on hard facts of the fossil record? Not really. There isn't any evidence that they would be this smart or even behave like this, but when has the modern franchise been concerned with that? But that would be my idea for an antagonist species for a possible JP/JW story.

Now, a setup for how this would even play out? Simple, classic human hubris. After the explanation of the Rebirth, most dinosaurs died of cold and disease, and only those around the equator survived. There will still be those who feel inclined to see dinosaurs. Preferably in a park, so whoever we have building this new park would obviously want to distance themself from the prior attempts. And make it more accessible to the public.

So this park will have to be located close to the equator, where dinosaurs can survive and draw the biggest possible crowds. Orlando baby!!! Since when did building a mainland park ever go wro- oh wait...

Well, this time it will be different. Right?

So now you have a park near a populated area that sees annual tourism in the highly competitive theme park business. Since Orlando is home to parks like Sea World, it isn't out of the question that this would be considered. Obviously, there will be more unease after what happened, but everyone is assured that the park owners are sparing no expense. Plus, they have more data on how to run a place like this now. It's also not in any way associated with Jurassic World; let's call it something like the Prehistoric Discovery Center and Resort (PDCR for short), a place to learn about Earth's past and have fun for the whole family.

With attractions such as the Plesiosaur river ride, where you can see several aquatic animals on a leisurely boat ride. Or the Carnivore Encounter, which is a show that rotates through and showcases a number of the park's large carnivores, all behind a dome rated to stop large-caliber bullets. Some fun for the younger members of your family? Why not try the Hatchery center, which serves as both a daycare and an educational experience for your tots as they watch the newest additions to the park be born. Ride the Roaring Rex coaster as you experience its 215ft drop. Learn how the PDCR makes its dinosaurs with Journey into the Genome as you learn about the park's more efficient and purer extraction method of making its dinosaurs.

Lastly, and most importantly, is the Trail of Titans a safari experience where you get to see many of the park's animals free-roaming, including the Gigantoraptors.

And as things run smoothly, life is finding a way to break this cage as it did before. As everyone may have expected, the scarier the carnivores are, the more likely they are to be the source of the incoming cystoscopy. It will come from somewhere that not even those who disaster-proofed everything would have expected.

My parents went all out and got me a really special cake for my birthday!

The cake it is based on from the last picture is one that was available to be made in Kroger in 2001 when Jurassic Park III came out. The palm trees aren't 1:1 the same but the Spinosaurus is 100% the genuine article which I still can't believe I got since it is fairly obscure and definitely rare.

In your personal opinion, who had the better relationship/cared more for their raptors?

In my opinion, it’s fairly obvious the handler‘s relationship with her atrociraptors was a good amount better than Owen’s relationship with his velociraptors. I think the biggest evidence for this opinion was their reactions to the death of their raptors (that did die). For Owen, he simply paused for a bit in reaction to delta and charlie’s death. I suppose it’s understandable for the former, considering the fact that his life was still in immediate danger, but (iirc), it wasn’t the case for Charlie. He didn’t react at all to echo’s death. It seemed his relationship was mostly with blue, which, while deep, was pretty strained.

However, the handler, stayed at ghost’s side while she died, and showed visible sadness at said death. Not only that, but in season one, when ghost showed exhaustion, she immediately called the raptors back to her to quit fighting. Not to mention her going out of her way to retrieve red. And among all this, she was shown multiple times to be physically affectionate with her raptors. Owen‘s pack always seemed somewhat aggressive, even around him, something the handler’s raptors never were around her. At the end of the day, this isn’t a problem, because they’re still animals, but this is about their relationship with their alphas.
