The two Jurassic Park movies he wrote should be enough to prove that Trevorrow has no writing skills. I know someone will say "BUT 1 BILLION DOLLARS BOX OFFICE!" but let's be honest, it's the Jurassic Park IP that granted that, not the writing. JW is a JP remake and JW FK is just a mess, everyone could have written those movies and the movies would have still been succesfull.
I do agree with you. JW was by the numbers, and I hated JW:FK -- it was very flimsy and poorly scripted indeed.
My expectations for the third are quite low, despite my enjoyment of the previous two in a trashy, SyFy kind of way.
Some people just like to complain for nothing.
The level of that has been astonishing for NTTD.
It was a passion project for Trevorrow, who had fallen in love with a 1998 spec script written by a crime novelist. Some other director might have been able to salvage a few elements from that story by toning it down. Trevorrow plays the material entirely straight, which makes it look even more ridiculous on screen.
Actor Griffin Newman hates the works of Trevorrow with a passion (he started with Safety not Guaranteed), and he eviscerated The Book of Henry on his podcast, one of the few podcasts I have been able to listen in its entirety.
Regarding Bond, is the production handled under British or American rules? Trevorrow's credit on SW9 may come from various WGA clauses, which may also trigger for No Time to Die. If they operate under British rules, there may not be such arbitration procedures.
I just don't get what the stakes are. The second film ended as if dinosaurs conquered our world and they were the majority ("this is their world now") yet there's only a few of them which might cause a few nuisances but can easily handled with today's military systems. The mosasaurus seems to be the only real threat.
I'm really not sure what we're even talking about any more. I expressed a concern that there might be too many cooks in the kitchen for NTTD's script; after that the replies confuse me.
Ack, I completely misread that in my slightly hungover daze. My fault. Apologies @octofinger and an extension of that to @Zekidk.
But, for the record, I still think we're in good hands in the script department. Hopefully I'm proven right. Hopefully.
Hmm.. Interesting. It looks very much like the video they had for James Bond day, but it differs slightly in the places of the clips.
I don't want to be a downer, but is it possible the official channels will have this video out *a week after* the CR one, and *not* the NTTD teaser?
That way, the teaser is indeed coming at the beginning of December and not the final week of November.
I think we must get ready for a no-show after these clips. If we all anticipate the trailer five days after the CR clip releases, we might be setting ourselves up for disappointment. Again.
@antovolk It's not exactly the same. Same clips, different placement.
I thought I've seen it before.
But the day aint over yet. Still a chance we can get the int. version with CR. If so, it's more of a verification of the build-up strategy.
I assume American rules because it’s MGM. When QOS was initially in production it was during the writers strike, so Craig and Forster had to write on their own to flesh out what was a very skeleton of a script that Haggis turned in before the strike happened.
I had real, real trouble with this too. I loved the first one, tried to love the second, but walked out of the theater thinking, "Aren't there, like, 9 dinosaurs? And they all have trackers? Can't they just...go get 'em?"
Maybe nothing Bond related happens, but Colbert will surely mention it. And we all know what happened last time Craig was on Colbert and we all thought he was not going to talk Bond...
He will ask will you return as James Bond haha.
Star Wars will occupy the majority of the headlines, and the holidays probably isn’t the best times anyway? New year, new decade, no substitutes. What do you guys think?
It would make more sense to attach the trailer to a very high profile film like Star Wars. With such a large audience, it’s the surest way to get the word out on the next Bond film.
Alien: Covenant released its trailer on Christmas Day in 2016.
As he is there to promote Knives Out, very slim.
He was there to promote LOGAN LUCKY when he announced he was coming back for one more Bond. There probably won’t be a trailer, but I suspect Bond will come up in discussion.
It's safe to assume as much, alright.
Yes, exactly. If a trailer is to be shown, it will be for Knives Out.
It would be nice but highly unlikely? I think like Barry007 said before that we are looking at December at the earliest? To be fair that is not that far away now. :-bd
If they wanted to make it political, I suppose that would make sense...
