After the most recent trailer, I can now confidently say that Jurᴀssic World Rebirth will recapture the magic of the original movie. Even though the original Jurᴀssic Park was released way back in 1993, it is still undoubtedly the best movie in the franchise. Some even consider the Steven Spielberg film to be one of the best blockbusters of all time. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that any film in the Jurᴀssic World franchise will ever surpᴀss the original. However, compared to the last few movies in the series, the upcoming Jurᴀssic World Rebirth looks outstanding.
After the last couple of movies received mixed critical receptions, Jurᴀssic World Rebirth is meant to start a new era for the franchise. Because of this, it seems like Universal spared no expense to ensure that it is the franchise’s best movie in years. The cast of Jurᴀssic World Rebirth includes Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, Mahershala Ali, and Rupert Friend. Additionally, the film is directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp, who penned the screenplay for the original Jurᴀssic Park. Therefore, it seems likely that Jurᴀssic World Rebirth will recapture the magic of Spielberg’s original movie.
Jurᴀssic World Rebirth Has The Horror & Wonder Of Spielberg’s Jurᴀssic Park
Spielberg’s Jurᴀssic Park Was A Triumph
Spielberg’s original Jurᴀssic Park movie was so special because it focused on both the wonder and the horror created by the dinosaurs. Firstly, Jurᴀssic Park includes many awe-inspiring sH๏τs of dinosaurs, such as the brachiosaurus’ walking through the field. SH๏τs like this were especially mind-blowing in 1993, since CGI wasn’t as common or as developed as it is today. However, on the flip side, several scenes in Jurᴀssic Park prove how terrifying and ᴅᴇᴀᴅly dinosaurs can be, and showcased the dangers of humans playing God.
Based on the trailers, it is clear that Jurᴀssic World Rebirth will be one of the scariest entries in the franchise. In fact, the T-rex river scene, the mosasaurus boat scene, and the inclusion of the new mutant dinosaur known as the D-rex suggest that Jurᴀssic World Rebirth could be the franchise’s scariest movie since the original. However, there also appears to be a sense of awe that is reminiscent of the tone of the original movie. In some trailer sH๏τs, we see a real fascination and wonder with the dinosaurs that was lacking in the previous Jurᴀssic World movies.
Rebirth Feels More Like Jurᴀssic Park Than A Jurᴀssic World Movie
Rebirth Isn’t Repeating The Mistakes Of The Other Jurᴀssic World Movies
It should be noted that it’s hard to determine whether Jurᴀssic World Rebirth will recapture the magic of the original movie just based off a couple of trailers. However, it does seem like the film will be more similar to the original Jurᴀssic Park than any of the previous Jurᴀssic World movies. This makes sense, since Koepp was brought back to write the script for Jurᴀssic World Rebirth. Compared to the previous Jurᴀssic World movies, which all tried to be very big and ambitious, Jurᴀssic World Rebirth seems like it will be quite contained and atmospheric.

Based on the new тιтle for the franchise, it is pretty obvious that the Jurᴀssic World movies really wanted to show dinosaurs in the real world. However, this was unfortunately never as effective or as wondrous as fans initially hoped. Therefore, I’m glad that Jurᴀssic World Rebirth is going to establish that most of the dinosaurs are now living on islands rather than roaming the world freely. Setting the story primarily on one island and showing how dangerous the dinosaurs can be will hopefully ensure that Jurᴀssic World Rebirth is a return to form for the franchise.
Despite This, Jurᴀssic World Rebirth Doesn’t Look Like It’s Too Nostalgic
Jurᴀssic World Rebirth Seems Like It Will Perfectly Blend Old & New
It’s also worth mentioning that the aforementioned T-rex river attack scene in Jurᴀssic World Rebirth actually comes from the Jurᴀssic Park novel and was cut from the original movie. Including this scene in Rebirth further suggests that the movie will feel closer in tone and style to the original. However, it also doesn’t seem like Jurᴀssic World Rebirth is focusing too much on nostalgia, which is a good thing.
Obviously, Jurᴀssic World Rebirth is going to be partly driven by nostalgia. This is inevitable because of how iconic the original movie is. However, it also seems like it’s going to have its own idenтιтy and try to tell a bold new story in the franchise. In contrast, the previous Jurᴀssic World movies all seemed desperate for viewers’ nostalgia, yet they all failed to recapture the magic of the original movie. Overall, it seems like Jurᴀssic World Rebirth may be the best movie in the franchise since the original, which is why I can’t wait for it to be released.
