I'm interested. Hopefully this'll be better than any of the other Jurassic park sequels

Jurassic World has fallen apart for me after multiple viewings, but with this director, I am very hyped about returning to the story

"Jurassic Park" and "Sequel" do not go together very well, but this new director has me intrigued.

Jurassic War(s) ? They kinda teased the dinosaurs army in the last one ...

The Impossible is a great movie, I'm still not too big of a Jurassic park fan, but this should hopefully be good.
