It's hard for me to get out to targets and going by the tracker. Seems everyone near me was putting it up early.

For future reference, the tracker counts backroom and sales floor stock together as one number, unless you mean you saw the numbers actually dropping as sales were occurring. They come in packages of six (same for all non-large Funko), so any stores with a multiple of six haven't sold any.

Yeah places around me had them in stock and then not.

Yep, that is why he says clever girl, he remembers him.

I can make a OT. It ain't gonna be amazingly pristine since I can't photoshop like crazy. But it'll have all the info needed if the deadline is short on needing one.

AKA if no one else wants it I'll handle it

Since it technically needs to be up tomorrow

Deleted member 10060 · Jun 4, 2018

Yeah, it needs to be up quick. Would just weird if it didn't come up till US release when everyone else has already seen it 20 times.

Strafer · Jun 4, 2018

Do we need an OT though? The movie will get ripped a part, I rather just hang here.

We have a full list of all the dinosaurs in JWE now. Very few small carnivores. The Deinonychus is an unholy abomination. Not much variety in terms of body shape. Mostly ceratopsians and stegosaurids.

Jawmuncher · Jun 4, 2018

WhiteRabbitEXE Were you gonna make it? I don't wanna start on anything if you had an idea already set.

Yeah, unless your heart was set on it (which would be fine, just say so!), I'm gonna start shortly.

Nah you can do it. Saves me time because I gotta write a report lol .

What is the subtitle going to be?

Tentatively sitting on the "The Park is gone" line they've been using for the tagline, but I'm trying to come up with quotes/bad jokes that may be better. Open to suggestions!

Strafer · Jun 4, 2018

The Park Is...Uhh...Gone....hehehehaahehheaheahehe

Kid me would love this! It really does show the true actressss of the movie off :p

Anton Sugar · Jun 4, 2018

I don't understand the furor over that poster. It's fine? It's not great but yeah, agreed with Curler--that one seems specifically designed for kids. Actually kinda reminds me of the 3D/holographic poster with the Rex breaking out from TLW.

I like this a lot actually haha.

WhiteRabbitEXE · Jun 5, 2018

Core of the OT is done, will probably add to it and tweak it later. Just need to settle on a name now, lol. Any suggestions?

Edit: Just went with "The Park is gone", but I have an alternate title if the reviews are bad, lol.

Curler · Jun 5, 2018

Ugh, I wanna read through the OT so bad, but that two week wait...

How have early impressions (of other regions, like Spain) been so far?

Early impressions from Spain were positive, but someone in the OT who has apparently watched the film is hinting that they strongly disliked it. We'll see.

So far the thread is safe. I'm bailing out once the screenings start though, lol. Will be funny not to be able to check my own thread for 2 weeks.

Well, we will see very soon then!

Jawmuncher · Jun 5, 2018

Fallen Kingdom sitting at 70ish (More or less depending on how it updates for you).
The majority of opinion seems to be sitting at it being slightly better than the first but nothing too crazy different. This isn't going to be a magical sequel that fixes all the complaints of the first if you didn't like it, it seems. Which was to be expected after the trailer and posters.

I don't think the series will see any big changes unless Trevorrow is off writing/directing. But we know he's in for one more film. Though I am curious what they do after that.

Strafer · Jun 5, 2018

How's the review thread looking? :D

Ororo · Jun 5, 2018

I don't mind Trevorrow's take so far, let's see once I see FK. It's not two far away only two days away for me ! I'll be sure to post spoiler free thoughts here, nothing big just a sentence or two if no one minds.

It'll depend a lot on how JW2 and 3 do, if there are diminishing returns they might just let the franchise go dormant again for a while. If JW 2 and 3 are huge hits then I fear we'll get JW4.

I love JP, I waited for JP4 for over a decade reading all the news I could about it but at this point I think after this trilogy I don't want anything else from THIS universe. Maybe a prequel to the first movie but that's about it. The only project I'd be interested is in a remake that was faithful to the books.

Yeah. Unless there's big strides with JW 3. I'd be more interested in a reboot of some kind as well.
Since they refuse to do Jurassic War, i'm unsure what ideas they'll have left to go after JW3.

Strafer · Jun 5, 2018

At least they promised that JW3 would not have a Hybrid which is awesome. No more science dabbling.

Still think that's a negative. Since I really enjoy the hybrid/science tampering aspect.
These days that aspect is more interesting than the dinosaurs themselves.

Cow Mengde · Jun 6, 2018

Saw it last night at the special preview event in NYC. Hilarious for all the wrong reasons. This is definitely a Lost World remake. I don't even think it was intentional since this movie still uses call backs to the first one.

Got spoiled on the end credits scene. Not mad though since it ain't even a big deal.

I was actually frustrated that I had to sit through the endless credits for that.

DemonCarnotaur · Jun 6, 2018

Well, I can really appreciate what Fallen Kingdom gets right. Wish those parts were far more abundant. They're incredible.

When it gets things wrong

Well

=/

In many ways, it really shouldn't be spoiler sensitive since it adds literally nothing to the movie. Could be been just a random scene anywhere. If you missed it, you missed nothing.

Bernie Bernbaum · Jun 7, 2018

Is someone in here doing the OT for Jurassic World Evolution?

I've pre-ordered the deluxe edition. It's due in 5 days but pre-loading isn't available yet.

Cool. Looking forward to your OT.

I played Operations Genesis forever back in the day. I'm looking forward to that game more than any Jurassic Park related content since waiting for the release of the Lost World novel.

DemonCarnotaur · Jun 7, 2018

I now have a cool opportunity that includes very last minute traveling and I don't know how my work will respond, or what to do.

Jawmuncher · Jun 7, 2018

Take the opportunity
