I'd love a Jurassic Park remake!

Re-reading Jurassic Park and The Lost World for the first time in years...the books are so much more brutal than portrayed in the first film. As much as I love the more family oriented films, I'd love to see a much darker version truer to the books..

Nooo can we please stop remaking stuff. I can see where your coming from but looking at the cinema listing this summer had me thinking we where in a rerun if the 90's (A bad one at that). I mean, fantastic4, superman and there was another but I can't remember what it was.

I want something new and original not another remake.

There's a million JP films. Am utterly sick of them.

Which is a shame as I vividly remember how amazing and fresh the new one felt at the time.

Well upon reading your thread title I was going to come on here and say “hell no” but actually having read both books I kind of agree with you. But I’d kind of like it as a tv series tbh so that they can take their time building up the story a bit and making it darker rather than kid friendly.

Interested in this thread?

TV series would be amazing...the suspense that Michael Crichton is able to build throughout his books is brilliant...at some points it's very intense reading. I'd love to see if reflected on the screen.
