10 Movie Fan Theories The Creators Completely Rejected
5. Jurassic World
The Theory: Jurassic World was a roaring success, and part of that success can be attributed to how much the film played on nostalgia; the raptors, the T-Rex, those park gates, that iconic score - they were all present and correct.
And, if this fan theory had its way, the nostalgia would have been stretched even further.
Owen Grady (Chris Pratt) was supposedly a brand-new character created for Jurassic World, but many fans speculated that we'd actually seen him in the very first movie.
That's the kid who Alan Grant terrorizes with a raptor claw near the beginning of Jurassic Park. This did make some sense - the ages seem to line up, and the kid is very clearly interested in dinosaurs - but nobody knew for sure whether or not this was true.
The Rejection: Well, until Chris Pratt himself came along and debunked it, that is. Spoil-sport.
Huffington Post interviewed Pratt earlier this year and asked him about the theory, to which the star responded “I have heard about that... I don’t see it as being true.”
He continued “it’s sweet though. And I love that kid, and I love the idea of that possibility, but I do officially say, as the bastion of Owen’s backstory, but not the creator of the character, that’s not true.”
Theory. Murdered.
