Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
I do think the studio should rethink the release date. Even moving back just 1 week.

But the idea of this opening at $140m is silly. That said, the biggest problem I see - by far - is opening the weekend after incredibles 2. That will still being doing $50m+ for the weekend and the family appeal is massive. That limits it significantly. I just went through this whole thread, and not one person has mentioned or said 140. So I have to ask, who the fuck are you talking too?

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Jurassic World 2 will be a good barometer for Avatar 2. Both original films achieved immense success but didn’t age well.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
I don't think that's true. JW exploded over its OW because of the legacy of trilogy and brand name. Avatar had great legs over December, plus JW was a reboot and not "an original story"

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Reasons for their success notwithstanding both sequels are seeking to build on the popularity of their immediate predecessor. Predecessors that are now highly criticized (Avatar more so).

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Avatar also has Cameron to its aid and he is a VERY big difference between the two movies.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Don't know about you guys but I think this is a great poster. Best one so far. Certainly better than this:

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Yeah that's a great poster. Certainly catches the eye.
The one with the kid in the bed is terrible.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Much better poster. The one with kid in bed would alienate parents more than it will attract new audience.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
As a parent, I don't give a shit about the dinosaur and the kid in the bed poster. Why would that alienate me?

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
You said it would alienate parents. I'm a parent, it doesn't alienate me. I didn't say it wouldn't alienate other parents, but I doubt it.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
You also don't give a fuck about the poster so its obvious you don't care and I agree that it won't alienate all families. I have known parents that are too protective and won't make their children see anything remotely scarier and that poster was less family oriented and MUCH more scarier than running from dinosaur's or T-Rex roaring posters (usual ones for this franchise).

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
I actually don't give a shit, not a fuck.
I just don't think that poster is any scarier than the new poster, or any previous Jurassic poster. Parents know if these films are appropriate for their kids by now. There have been 4 of them already.

My girlfriend saw the little girl terrorized image on a billboard and it actually made her not want to see FALLEN KINGDOM.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
The little girl works in the trailer but not as a poster. It crosses into 'creepy' territory as a still image. Not that I care, but that's how a lot of people might perceive it. Better business decision to go with the other posters.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
Sounds like lots of people are great big babies What do you think is going to happen in a PG13 Jurassic Park movie? The little girl isn't getting gutted before your eyes, I promise.

Re: Jurassic World 2 predictions
The trouble with it is that it sells the film based on terror.
I don't have a problem with it. Audiences might.

Chippy forgets how irrational most women are. *Watches Jurassic Park* "I love Jurassic Park! *Sees Jurassic World PosterI* "I don't wanna see it!! "

I don't have a problem with it. Audiences might. Agreed the sell of these movies should be the sight of dinosaurs with their extinct world and not haunting children in their sleep that's a poor marketing strategy.

It's not the horror aspect. It's the fact that it's a little girl in a bed with the raptor leering over her. It's a bit creepy. The imagery was obviously intended to be just horror, it could be interpreted as having another undertone. Just poor marketing choice on the studio's part. Especially with "Life Finds A Way" as the tagline. Lolz.
