Jurassic Park IV Director Announced
What had seemed like a rumor for the better part of a decade now feels even more real with the naming of a director. Colin Trevorrow, director of the low budget flick Safety Not Guaranteed, has signed on to direct the upcoming blockbuster. Steven Spielberg will be the executive producer. And I will be there opening night, because I love me some dinosaur movies!
Jurassic Park IV will be shot in 3D and released on June 13, 2014.
JURASSIC PARK 4 to Open in 3D on June 13, 2014
Deadline says Universal Pictures has set a release date for Jurassic Park 4, which will be shot in 3D and come out June 13, 2014, Steven Spielberg is returning to produce. The re-release of the original Jurassic Park in 3D opens this April.
It’s a shame that Spielberg won’t return to direct, but the technology should be interesting this time around. The last JP movie was in 2001, we’ve come a long way. Let’s hope it’s not all green screens either – get Andy Serkis in there!
2013 Oscar Nominations Announced; Ben Affleck Snubbed for Best Director
That’s really all I have to say about the nominations, Ben Affleck got snubbed. Argo was one of the best movies of the year and he didn’t get nominated for directing (although it’s up for Best Picture). Don’t take this year’s nominations seriously; Flight got a nomination for writing.
The 85th Academy Awards will take place on February 24th, check out the nominations below:
The Trailer for JURASSIC PARK 3D Finds A Way
Here is first trailer for the 3D re-release of Jurassic Park, Steven Spielberg’s 1993 classic that is sure to stir up all sorts of nostalgia with fans. We did a CoF Show about the trilogy, so there’s that.
It would be worth seeing Jurassic Park on the big screen, if not for the post 3D conversion. We talked about on the show that the effects hold up very well after 20 years, the trailer does a good job at making us look like truth tellers.
The film stars Sam Neill, Richard Attenborough, Laura Dern, Joseph Mazzello, Ariana Richards, Wayne Knight, and Samuel L. Jackson.
Hit the jump to watch the trailer, Jurassic Park 3D hits theaters on April 5th, 2013.

JURASSIC PARK 3D Gets Spring Release Date
(via)
Universal Pictures recently changed several of its release dates for 2013, including Steven Spielberg’s 3D release of Jurassic Park. The 1993 film will now be hitting theaters in the spring, moving from July 18 to April 5. The studio has also set release dates for About Time (May 10), Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall (June 28), R.I.P.D. (July 19), and 2 Guns (August 16).
Jurassic Park was a landmark movie that deserves to have a re-release, the post 3D is kind of a buzz kill but I hear the Blu-ray was done really well. This isn’t even the only Spielberg movie getting a re-release. Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark will be back this September, not in 3D, but on IMAX screens. It is scheduled to run from September 7th through September 13th.
This weekend we will be recording a special City of Films Show dedicated to the JP movies, so be a part of the show by telling us (here) your thoughts, experiences and or memories of the movies. What you liked or didn’t like. How enchanting Jeff Goldblum is etc…
