After years of rumor and speculation, the fourth installment of the Jurassic Park series is finally arriving to the cinema screen€ and even as early as next year. Most people are excited about the chance of another tale from the world of dinos, but there are some who don't think it's really a good idea at all. The hesitation is understandable--Jurassic Park III was an okay flick, but really not that great and probably shouldn't have been made at all--but the opportunity for greatness with this movie is beyond possible. It's probable. So, in honor of the upcoming Jurassic Park IV, hitting theaters June 13, 2014, here's a look at five reasons why this could be the best JP film yet and one reason why that just ain't possible...
5. SFX/CGI Advancements
The original Jurassic Park film utilized (and even created) some of the finest computer-generated imagery programs in the industry. But it was 1993, and the industry hadn't been exploring the latest incarnation of CGI for very long. And yet, watching the film today, it still looks fantastic. The graphics mixed with practical special effects created a realistic environment wherein we could believe every visual lie told us€.because it was so darn good looking. Since then, technology has obviously expanded and evolved by leaps and bounds. Even since the debut of Jurassic Park III (2001), effects have gotten far more realistic. For the fourth installment, they ought to be able to pull out all the stops on creating a cast of dinos that are as gorgeous as they are frightening. Not to mention the fact that similar advances in CGI tech also allow for some pretty remarkable environments and locations that are otherwise nonexistent to be used in the film. One thing's clear: Jurassic Park IV is going to look great.
