Well this was a pleasant surprise! Everyone was expecting a trailer to release with the Super Bowl this Sunday but Universal decided to do a surprise drop out of nowhere! Check out the trailer and full breakdown below!
Whoa! That was a lot of cool stuff wasn’t it? Well it’s time to over analyze the heck out of that glorious 3 minutes to see what we can find out:
First we get some amazing Cowboys Vs Dinosaurs action. Lets wrangle us some Parasaurolophus! Also I feel the need to mention how amazing the cinematography is. This movie is gonna be gorgeous!
Chris Pratt gets a great dinosaur whisperer moment with one of the Paras.
Our first look Maisie Lockwood who hopefully is feeling a little guilty and responsible for the giant ecological disaster she created. Also, nothing like a wandering Apatosaurus to stop your logging operation.
Introducing Blue’s bouncing baby, Beta! We must protect Beta at all costs!
Loving the amber Universal logo.
A snowy encounter with Owen and Maisie at a cabin. That’s the same vehicle we saw at the end of Fallen Kingdom so I’m gonna guess they built this cabin out here near Blue’s territory.
Hmm I wonder when this scene takes place. Later in the trailer it looks like we see Beta being captured by a net of some sort. Is this movie a rescue mission?
Well there goes the fishing industry. Man the Mosasaur is always impressive.
Rexy’s visit to the drive-in seems to be in the movie after all. In case you didn’t notice her design has been slightly altered in Dominion to match more closely with the animatronic from the original Jurassic Park.
Boots like that can only belong to one man in the JP franchise!
Welcome back Laura Dern and Sam Neil! You both look great! Also it looks like Ellie may be divorced from her husband from JP3. There is a distinct lack of a wedding band.
Spot the JP3 easter egg (bottom left)! Looks like Alan kept the velociraptor resonating chamber.
“You coming or what?” I wonder what they are investigating, maybe it has something to do with the scene we see later in the trailer on the farm?
Nature in harmony. I’d bet this is from the end of the movie when the dinosaurs and our modern fauna have fully integrated with each other.
The first dinosaur we see with feathers is a Therizinosaurus! This scene also leads to my favorite shot of the trailer! Therizinosaurus has a fun history in paleontology, at first it was thought to be a huge carnivore but once more of its remains were found it turned out to be a big Veggiesaurus.
Clean shaven Malcolm enters the trailer giving us our roll credits line, “We not only lack dominion…”
DNA replacement? Not sure what’s going on here but that’s definitely Ellie looking at the screen.
The nefarious Dr Wu has let his hair grow out and he sure doesn’t look happy. The shoulder on the left probably belongs to our returning villain Lewis Dodgson played by Campbell Scott. He runs the rival genetic company Biosyn but you may remember him most from the attempt to steal embryos from the original Jurassic Park with Dennis Nedry.
An Atrociraptor chases Claire across the roof tops of Malta. This sequence almost has a James Bond and/or Mission impossible feel to it. We see more of this sequence later but from Owen’s point of view. The Atrociraptors appear to be our main Raptor threat this movie and rumors are pointing to Biosyn as their creator.
So we have heard multiple times from Universal that this is the end of the current saga of 6 films. If/when the franchise comes back it’s going to look very different.
Welcome to Biosyn Mr Grant. I can’t help but notice that this building is in a deciduous forest and it has long been rumored we would be returning to Isla Sorna in this movie…could it be?
This feathery boy is named Pyroraptor. We also get our first look at our brand new character, Kayla. Rumors point to a surprising reveal of who she actually is but I won’t spoil that for now. This seems to take place after the plane crash we are about to see.
Love the classic throw back to Ellie’s JP look. Are those Locusts? Not sure what is going on here at all. Could we be getting some sort of cloned ancient insect?
“I always come back.” Well that’s a bit ominous. I highly doubt they will kill off Owen but I suppose you never really know.
Another part of the Malta chase, two of the Atrociraptor Squad are chasing Owen through the streets. Ghost is the name of the albino raptor on the right. We also get a brief glimpse of two other Carnivores attacking the city, an adult Allosaurus and a Carnotaur. No idea if the Carno is Diablo from Fallen Kingdom or could this be Toro from Camp Cretaceous making a live action debut.
Pterosaur attack! First off we get our first look at Quetzalcoatlus who easily takes out the engines of the plane our heroes are in. Then we see a Pterodactyl heading straight for Claire! I love that they gave Quetz the down like feathers.
A herd of Naustoceratops attack a jeep convoy at night. Loving the silhouette nature of the cinematography here!
Beta no! Somebody set a trap and the baby got caught in it. Were they trying to catch Beta or was this just a coincidence? The vehicle behind Blue doesn’t appear to be Owen’s car.
On first glimpse I thought this was the Giganotosaurus but on further inspection it actually appears to be Rexy! The skin texture and tooth shape matches a Rex more. Also this is actually a very clever nod to the book version of Lost World! In the novel, Arby gets into a cage very similar to the one we see Maisie in. It does not go well for him and he gets tossed around by some raptors. I wonder if Maisie will share the same fate but with Rexy trying get a snack.
I think these shots are of thee bowls of the Biosyn facility we saw earlier in the trailer. This is also the first shot of our heroes meeting up.
Dilophosaurus is back baby! Love this practical animatronic!
The whole gang is here! This is definitely the money shot of the trailer and for sure will put some people at ease that thought we’d have another Star Wars seuqels situation on our hands.
The new Giganotosaurus shows up just in time for the big finale. Don’t get a good look at its design here but it looks to be pretty close to the one we saw in The Prologue scene.
That’s a wrap for our first trailer! What did you think about it? Did I catch somethings that you didn’t?
Unseen 'Jurassic World' Concept Art Shows A Very Different Movie
Seth Engstram is a name you might not have heard before, but take it from us, he's responsible for the look and feel of some of your favorite movies. He's a concept artist who takes the script and the studio's vision for a film and translates it artistically into a production-ready visualization. He recently updated his blog with some new never-before-seen concept art for the monstrous hit 'Jurassic World.' Check it out below.

He recently updated his blog with some new never-before-seen concept art for the monstrous hit 'Jurassic World.' Check it out below.
While many of the images look like they were directly translated onto the silver screen, there are a few that stand out unimagined. What looks like a tense rope bridge set-piece in front of a roaring volcano definitely didn't make it into the film (Although, in other early drafts of the park layout, there was a man-made volcano that I think this is actually taking place in front of). A few of the sketches show the now iconic, land traversal pods as a hanging ride being attacked by pteranodons. The most stunning unrealized piece depicts the Indominus Rex tearing the head off of an animatronic T-Rex encased in a fake waterfall setting.
Some of these cut scenes look very exciting, but you can tell for the most part what they were excised for in the film. Most have parallels to action beats that worked wonderfully, so all's well that ends well. Hopefully, we'll see some snippets of concept art leak for the upcoming 'Jurassic World 2,' so that we can start speculating on the mysterious plot summary they've given us.
Thanks to the very awesome Jurassic Outpost for the heads up.
