    Since a couple of month, they are working on Juarssic World, the fourth Jurassic park movie. As far as I know, they filming now in a Zoo-probably in the Usa, because they are filming also on Hawaii.

    Does anybody knows, in which Zoo ?I

    I must admit to being quite excited about this film, I love the original three movies, although I often have nightmares after watching them...

    Can't wait for the reboot, will be very interesting to see what it is like! :D

    Come on man, go easy on himl. :cool: Bib just wants to get the discussion going. ;)

    Zooboy, I didn't realise this was a reboot (probably because I didn't Google it :p). I am not sure how I feel about that. If it is a true adaptation of the book, then technically it wouldn't be a reboot, but a remake. With advances in technology since the books were published, I suspect that it might be 'loosely based' on the book.

    I am sure that all nature enthusiasts will know that David Attenborough's older brother, Richard, played the role of the rich, old dude in the original movie.

    According to Wikipedia, it's not a reboot: "Twenty-two years after the events of Jurassic Park, Isla Nublar now features a fully functioning dinosaur theme park, Jurassic World, as originally envisioned by John Hammond."

    OK, its not a reboot, I wasn't using that word right. And its definitely not a remake. Its just a distant sequel that takes the original ideas and events but adds (all?) new characters, so perhaps it is a refresh?

    And the best thing about this film so far is that the makers are straying away from CGI and are using animatronics and costumes to create their dinosaurs just as the first film did.

    The only returning character announced so far is Henry Wu, the geneticist played by BD Wong, who appeared in the original movie.

    Chlidonias was right-using Google isn't that difficult-I was only to lazy doing it:D Here's the reason for my qustion-there is a little guidebook with map of the new Jurassic World Park, and I think, it is available at the zoos, the movie was filming.

    Check Out the Jurassic World Brochure in New Photos - ComingSoon.net

    For the first time, there will be also water dinos in the movie-Mosasaurus:)

    I'm guessing these will be old-fashioned lizard-y mosasaurs, not the more whale-like animals we know today.

    And as far as I understood none of the animals will have fur/feathers which is quite dissappointing.

    Because it's a continuation of the previous plots, all it would do is confuse the viewers.

    I hope they make a zoo tycoon like game for this film. They had one long ago called Jurassic park operation genesis, but its hard to find now.

    And one of the actors died.
    Forget which one because of my teenage stupidity but it is the one who uttered the famous words "Welcome to Jurrasic Park"

    Richard Attenborough. He was 90 years old, and sadly died just a few days ago.
