There’s never a shortage of rumors floating around in Hollywood, and some of them just seem to never want to die. One of those rumors is that Jurassic Park 4 is in the works and we will soon be seeing another rise of the dinosaurs on the big screen, and now it’s fresh on everyone’s minds and back in the rumor mill.
Seems that Stephen Spielberg is in talks to pen a fourth installment to his Jurassic Park franchise, and according to The Hollywood Reporter has approached screenwriter Mark Protosevic to be the brains behind this go around.
Rumors began of a JP4 back in 2007, and the reported plot for that failed flick was something along the lines of dinosaurs engineered by the government that stomp around with weapons on their back. I can’t deny that a movie like that wouldn’t be freakin AWESOME, but does it really need to have the Jurassic Park name attached to it?
Few things irk me more than movies for the sake of money. I get that big movies historically make big money, and Hollywood loves their moolah. But when a movie is seriously good, as Jurassic Park was, there is really no need to destroy the mothership. I can MAYBE understand one sequel, but only when necessary. In the case of Jurassic Park 2, the producers responded to fan feedback for wanting more and different types of dinosaurs. I get that, and JP2 wasn’t terrible, but JP3 was freakin ridiculous and unnecessary. There is absolutely NO NEED for a fourth Jurassic Park. It was a classic of my generation, as was all the Disney movies they keep destroying by straight to DVD sequels (stop it already!). Don’t you have enough money, Spielberg?! Leave my childhood dinosaur memories alone!
In response, Spielberg claims that any talks of a JP4 are “just for fun” right now, but don’t you think for a second that if they come up with some crazy excuse to make the movie that they won’t do it.
