There's some part of me that wants to see the humanoid dinosaur version. It doesn't feel like Jurassic Park at all but it sounds nuts and could be a good watch!

The second that Velociraptor said "Alan" in Jurassic Park 3, I knew they were onto something BIG. Still holding out hope for Planet of the Dinosaurs.

Hearing that quote from Kathleen Kennedy about finding a reason to do a fourth film because it was never supposed to be a franchise is pretty hilarious, all things considered.

The concept art at 701 looks A WHOLE LOT like the lizard from amazing spiderman

The Barbasol can in the first JP movie has a cooling unit that only lasts 24 hours. Dodgson told Nedry that when they talked about their plan. Thus the Barbasol can in JP4 would actually be totally useless since the DNA would've long been destroyed by the high tropical temperature. That already is a huge plot hole in the script. Still great video as always. Keep it up 👍

I feel the idea of the human hybrid concept is rather unique, but honestly I always had a hunch it strayed too far from what the series is about. The concept script in it's entirely felt like something you would casually see on the Syfy channel late at night (and I meant that in the least inoffensive way possible as a JP fan)

Ironically, dinosaur human hybrids seems less fantastical than what we actually ended up getting with the Jurassic World Series lol

There was a series of books I read when I was a kid about Dinosaurs that had survived the meteor and continued to evolve to the point they had time travel. And were advanced in weapons. So they started to invade modern day earth. Most of the planet was taken over but humanity was fighting back and eventually defeat the dinosaurs. It was a crazy set of books but actually entertaining.

The DNA wouldn't be viable at that point. There was only enough coolant inside the canister for 36 hours, per Dodgeson (in the first movie).

While I am not sure how accurate this is, years ago, there used to be a website that had a a logo and a title that just read "JURASSIC PARK IV: EXTINCTION." This was way before Jurassic World was released. If I remember correctly, it started as a "Coming Soon" sort of website, then was a countdown, and then the whole site was scrapped after they shifted gears. I'm not sure if this was a fan site, or something the studio was toying with to tease a JP4 announcement, but I remember being excited for it, because at the time this wss the "big finale." Also, kudos to this video, especially in it's handling of Kathleen Kennedy. People seem to forget that Kennedy is a competent producer who just made some poor decisions (REALLY poor, if you ask me) and isn't just some uneducated woman in a position.

It's a good thing they never went down the Human-Dinosaur hybrids angle, because it would've been the death blow for the Jurassic Park series. The Jurassic World film we got was way better than the John Sayles version. However, the Will monahan story would've been amazing.

I would love to see a very accurate and faithful adaptation of the first book.

I really like your editing. Using all kinds of clips and images to showcase the scrapped story is just terrific work!

When I saw the thumbnail, my mind thought it was Amazing Spider-Man/No Way Home's Lizard in the photo, then I laughed at the thought of a Spider-Man/Jurassic Park crossover! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love Jurassic World(and only really the first in that trilogy) as i feel it is the best sequel, but genuinely feel JP3 is underrated.

Fun Fact: The Stegoceratops Was Originally Going To Be A Dinosaur That Appeared In Jurassic World Alongside Indominus Rex Rather Than A Simple Render On A Computer, But Collin Trevorrow Scrapped It After He Watched Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi With His Son, Who Pointed Out That Since Leia Was Also A Jedi, That Luke Wasn’t Unique. He Then Applied That To Make The Indominus Rex, Making It The Only Hybrid Dinosaur That Appeared So That It Wouldn’t Seem Like One Of Many

Great video! Carlos actually made a video on his KZfaq channel discussing the hybrids concept art. They were commissioned by Joe Johnston for his pitch of JP4 - according to Carlos, they were made during a meeting in 2004 and based on their discussions, not a script. Seems like the art was made parallel to the John Sayles script.

Dude this script sounds out of this world

Honestly, that would've been better than the last three movies we got. Or it could've worked as it's own standalone movie as "Tom Clancy meets sci fi horror."

Honestly the human dinosaur hybrids could have brought the horror element that the books had, into the films. Would have love to see how dinosaurs can be scary, even sentient ones because of the human dna.

Interesting topic to make videos on. It definitely fascinating to see 'what could hv been' scenario. The human-hybrid seems pretty cool. Although it felt like Spiderman and Werewolf mix.

What made the original JP so good was that it was so what plausible. JP also had this tone and feel, the JW movies just feel "cheap". It's hard for me to nail down exactly why this is. Probably because they are not grounded, they move to quickly and introduce rather out there concepts to quickly.

Oh wow, I didn’t know that Michael Crichton passed away. That’s a massive bummer. His books of Jurassic Park and The Lost World are fantastic, even though the movies are very different. Also, he was 6’9”? Dude was a giant!

This vid is fantastic, thanks for making it! Some stuff about JP4 i never knew!

I find it interesting how Jurassic Park and Jurassic World have met the same fate. The first movie is a mix of horror and action, the second was less well received and had more horror, while the third was constantly changing, was mostly action, and is very mixed. And now the producers are in the same situation they found themselves in previously.

My fav channel rn! Every videos is insanely entertaining and fun to watch. 👏👍

The true better sequel we never got for JP3 was the unused script for the game JP Trespasser 2. JW straight up even took Blue from this story. Sadly we never got the game nor movie

You know when you think about it, the Jurassic Park franchise followed a timeline rather parallel with the Alien franchise. Albeit one can argue JP yielded better results. Both started with more horror, followed by a sequel that leaned more on action with a theme about parenthood, followed by a third installment that underwent multiple script changes and a lot of money flushed down the toilet [spent mostly on building sets] before they had decided on the story. Aaaaaand then the hybrid idea came up for the fourth.

Instead of having the Navy SEAL retrieve the McGuffin and then breed infertile super dinosaurs, wouldn’t it have been easier to just have the SEAL and some others just… shoot the remaining dinosaurs?

I’m still surprised they never showed them in camp Cretaceous 😂 they did all sorts of stupid things such as crazy people, robot Dino’s, and mind controlled Dino’s

I think the script idea for JP4 would’ve been really interesting to see and much more unique than the other JP/JW films. instead of just reiterating the same old story of genetically engineered dinosaurs, stuck in the zoo and breaking out and wreaking havoc on the humans, the original story added something new to the franchise, no matter how strange and absurd. Wasn’t the clip where the CGI guy handled the Barbasol can from the Netflix cartoon called “Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous”? I see the original script concept of breeding dinosaurs specifically for the military reflected in both the Jurassic World franchise and the cartoon. I hope someday will see a dinosaur movie with the parts of the original script that didn’t make it to film.

Love the quality of your content. Just wanted you to know

Another insightful video!

The third one was the best one and I can argue this. The scariest scene in the whole franchise was Alan waking up on the island, not knowing how long they've been sitting there and having no one listen to him warning them of immediate danger.

as a 2000's kid who was fascinated by dinosaurs and JP, i remember the wild rumors about "Jurassic Park 4", the fan trailers, that concept teaser with the dinosaurs free in the continent, and eventually, the first leaks about Jurassic World. I remember i didn't believe it at first. "why would they change the name?"lol. I know the fanbase hates it, but i would've loved to see some of these ideas. Especially the video game sequel to JP3/prequel to JP4, with dinosaurs evolving and mutating into accurate, highly intelligent dinosaurs and fighting mercenaries.

Spiderman called, he wants his villian back..

I remember talking about the human hybrid dinosaurs being a possibility through the leaks that I saw online YEARS ago. People didn’t believe me. I guess it’s out again and now EVERYONE is talking about it. I think it could’ve been pretty awesome.

Really enjoyed this! Your videos are always informative and entertaining. Subscribed recently and I’m glad I did. Keep up the great work!

Sayles script should have been a cable TV movie titled Jurassic Castle it would have been awesome and he should have been allowed to direct his script the SyFy Channel would have been perfect for it they would have gotten so many new viewers with this.

Would’ve loved to see the true Jurassic Park 4. Also have a like and will for sure subscribe to your channel.

Very interesting great video once again man.

This actually sounds better than the last two movies. Please do this because I don't think we're done with dinosaur movies yet.

Your editing skills are top tier 👌

I honestly don’t think the idea for dinosaur/human hybrids is bad. The way they were gonna do it was bad.

I was expecting human-dino hybrids in Jurassic World 3 and am sorely disappointed that they didn't take that route

This was a great video! Thanks for making it! Idea for a future video; another concept that got shelved, look up 'Jurassic World:Trespasser 2'...

I would certainly like to see dinosaur human hybrids for when they bring this series back again. Seems like an interesting concept, as pretty much everything else has been done in 6 films. We need something new! (.. and not giant locus bugs)

The only thing that would be a smart decision for the franchise is to make it rated R. Lean heavily into the tone of the books and stop trying to appeal to children first. Hell Terminator was Rated R and they still sold toys! That’s what it comes down to is film merchandise and it needs to go back to the art instead of the $.

Some guy really loves dinosaurs, he took it to the next level

Imagine Kennedy not milking a dead franchise... now thats Sci Fi.

I'm in the minority who really enjoys JP3, it's a silly monster movie, no different than JW or JW2. I just like the run time for JP3, it's a brisk bit of entertainment

Honestly the original was the best and there was no reason to make sequels at all. They all stunk yes even lost world

Good content. Subbed👍

The concept of human/dinosaur hybrids sounds like something straight out of Turok

Please don't make a dinosaur-human hybrid with a gun for a hand. That's ridiculous. I like the dinosaur-human hybrid concept as it would take things to the next level nicely. Maybe the guy that stole the DNA samples, swallowed one and an egg formed inside his decaying body and hatched as a dinosaur-human !!! Da Da ???🦖 Another idea that I like is to have a Jurassic World set during ancient times, like the Egyptian, Ancient India or Mayan times.

This feels more like a Resident Evil game.

Now that sounds like a movie! So much of this made it into the Jurrasic World movies.

I liked the first Jurassic World. It made me happy to see a modern look on the Jurassic park world. But everything after that was like wtf

thank you ive always noticed that world ended up taking a large amount of influence from that previous "bonkers" script

They'll jump that shark with the series eventually.

I just discovered this channel….how do you not have more subs wth.

The concept art drawings were all very scary and cool looking

The fucking irony of Kathleen Kennedy saying they didn't need to make a new movie if there wasn't a good story reason. Also not seeing Kiera Knightly being chased by dinos is a use loss to the world.

They really should've used the plot of Alan Grant , Ian Malcolm , and Lex as the plot of JW Dominion. But have them help The Department of Fish and Wildlife capture the dinosaurs on the mainland. With Ellie Sattler and Tim Murphy appearing later in the film. It would've been a good sequel after JW FK's ending ( The best JW film ).

In my mind I think they have a lot of material that the movie people can use like some stuff they put off doing and some forgotten ideas that they used to make another movie

Congratulations on making an amazing video, providing valuable information about the discarded script for Jurassic Park IV, written by Sayles. Your video and the Terrordome 3000 video so far are the best videos about the development of the fourth film in the Jurassic Park franchise that I've seen. But I decided to bring you some more information about the script written by Sayles and the script written by Monahan (and a correction on Monahan's script synopsis). ⚠ LOTS OF TEXT ALERT ⚠ At the time when Jurassic Park IV was being developed, the producers realized the lack of interest from fans for new films, because in the first 3 films, the story was always the same. To give you an idea, the story of the 3 films were always about isolated incidents on some island inhabited by dinosaurs, where the protagonists tried to survive without the slightest chance of defending themselves from the dinosaurs, in which the characters just ran away and hid from them. In short, it only released the famous and feared "more of the same" in theaters, much to the chagrin of fans. Due to this problem, the producers realized that the franchise needed to reinvent itself and that the new film needed to bring some new features. Either that or a reboot for the franchise, and apparently the producers opted for the first option. In November 2002, William Monahan was hired to write the first script for the fourth film, where the script had been completed in 2003. To this day, not much is known about this script and William Monahan's version of Jurassic Park IV, what is known is a leaked synopsis and rumors behind this script. According to the synopsis, the story was supposed to be set 12 years after the events of the first film in the franchise, in which dinosaurs became urban legends around the world. Yes, all the events of the previous films are now considered legends/fake news by many people, where people claim that dinosaurs never came back to life. However, unidentified lizard-like creatures appear on the mainland of Costa Rica, wreaking havoc everywhere. A team of experts led by Alan Grant and Ian Malcolm went to investigate the alleged sightings of these unknown animals on an island in Costa Rica and try to find out what is going on. Later, the team of experts would discover that dinosaurs are migrating to the continent and are reproducing at an alarming rate all over the world, threatening the lives of many people around the world. Now the team is tasked with finding a way to curb the dinosaurs' spread and prevent an ecological disaster. The actors who were confirmed to return were Sam Neill (Alan Grant), Jeff Goldblum (Ian Malcolm) and Richard Attenborough (John Hammond). There was the possibility that actress Laura Dern would return to play Ellie Sattler, who would probably be one of the protagonists of the film (Unlike JP3, where she only had a cameo in the film). As for the casting of Keira Knightley to play Lex Murphy, that's indeed true (Which would be a big mistake of Universal, as the right thing to do would be to call Ariana Richards to return to the iconic role of her career). According to rumors at the time, there was the possibility of the script implementing DX in the plot, implying that JP4 would be the last film in the franchise. For those who don't know, in the second book written by Michael Crichton, it is revealed that InGen fed the dinosaurs with sheep infected with a prion disease, which made the life of the dinosaurs much shorter than normal. According to Ian Malcolm, one of the protagonists of the novel, this will lead to the extinction of the island's dinosaurs. If these rumors are true, it's unclear how DX would be implemented in the story. Would the protagonists create a virus to try to eliminate the dinosaur population on the planet? Or would dinosaurs be infected by the DX virus and infect the entire world population, increasing the possibility of humanity becoming extinct? In addition, other rumors said that there was also the possibility of the film having a new dinosaur to be the villain of the story, where many fans believed that this dinosaur would be the Giganotosaurus, but until today, nobody knows about it. It is a pity that until today not much is known about this script, since it's a mystery in the franchise. What is also known is that actors Sam Neill and Jeff Goldblum read the script and liked it a lot. Including, Sam Neill said that this was the best story he has ever seen in the franchise. Furthermore, to further reinforce the alleged leak of that synopsis, it was confirmed at that time that the script's story was no longer set in the jungle or even on one of the islands. This also only confirms what I said: The franchise needed to reinvent itself to get fans interested in the franchise again, as it only released more of the same in theaters. According to insiders at the time, the film would release in the summer of 2005 in the USA. Unfortunately, in the same year that the script had been completed, William Monahan abandoned the project for the fourth film, as he went to work on the film Kingdom of Heaven, by Ridley Scott. And oddly enough, this film ended up winning an Oscar for best screenplay, that is, William Monahan was a badass guy and ideal to save the franchise (Or not, because just because such a film won an Oscar does not mean that the film in yes it's really good and I've seen bad movies win an Oscar, but ok). After the first screenwriter left the project, the producers had to call another screenwriter to create a new script for the film and that's how it works, guys. It was from there that Steven Spielberg (Or Uncle Spielberg for those of you close), director of the first two films in the franchise, had a terribly crazy idea of militarized dinosaurs being used as weapons, but his version of the idea was much more fanciful. And what's worse is that he thought the kids would love this idea, holy shit! To make matters worse, in April 2003, Spielberg and the other producers were looking for screenwriters to write a new script that was based on Uncle Spielberg's "brilliant" idea, and they later called on infamous screenwriter John Sayles to create the new script for the movie. Additionally, the film's release date was pushed back to winter 2005 in USA. By 2004, John Sayles had written two scripts for the film, in which to this day we never know what the plot of the first script is. But the second script having been leaked onto the internet by hackers, where this script is the version we all know. However, It was revealed years later that John Sayles had written a proposed third script for the fourth film after the second script was leaked onto the internet. Not much is known about this third script, but there are reports that this script would bring back Lex Murphy (John Hammond's granddaughter), who would uncover a conspiracy involving hybrid dinosaurs. The problem is that unlike the second script, where the Deinonychus Draxi always had the same physical appearance as the Velociraptors, that is, they were normal dinosaurs despite being hybrids (just like the Indominus rex and the Indoraptor, which are hybrid dinosaurs but are normal dinosaurs visually speaking), the hybrid dinosaurs in this script were more bizarre and much worse than imagined, as years later conceptual arts of these hybrid dinosaurs, made by Carlos Huante, were leaked onto the internet. Yes, those freaks that actually look more like monsters from B horror movies than dinosaurs are the hybrid dinosaurs in this third script, according to Carlos Huante himself. My God, what the fuck?! Apparently this third script is much worse than the second script that had been leaked on the internet years before. Man, what was going on in that screenwriter's head, it almost seems like he had snorted or smoked some drug to come up with this ridiculous idea of half-human dinosaurs, literally. Speaking of those concept arts of human-hybrid dinosaurs that look more like monsters from a B-horror action movie than dinosaurs made by Carlos Huante, Carlos actually made a video on his KZfaq channel discussing the hybrids concept arts. They were commissioned by Joe Johnston for his pitch of JP4. According to Carlos, they were made during a meeting in 2004 and based on their discussions, not a script. Seems like the arts was made parallel to the John Sayles script. However, Carlos claims that the hybrid dinosaurs in his conceptual arts are the hybrid dinosaurs from the third discarded script written by Sayles as I had said previously, where there would even be a fight between the hybrid T. Rex and the hybrid Triceratops. In other words, Jack Horner and Carlos' statements do not conflict, since Sayles wrote a third script that actually had these hybrid human dinosaurs. Yes, those hideous freaks are not the hybrid dinosaurs from Sayles' second script that was leaked on the internet, as the script itself confirms that the Deinonychus Draxi are literally the Velociraptors of the franchise, with few differences in physical appearance. The problem is that to this day, many people think that the hybrid dinosaurs in the leaked script that we have available to date are those abominations from Carlos' concept arts, and that is not true. Like, every time someone talks about this script, that person states with certainty that the dinosaurs in this script are the dinosaurs from those concept arts, but that person hasn't even read the leaked script, because the script itself denies this by stating that the hybrid dinosaurs they are literally the Velociraptors of the franchise. It's no wonder that to this day no one in this world has had the courage to make a fanart of the hybrid dinosaurs from the script, where me, Hellraptor, Ralbino hamster and the youtuber Terrordome 3000 are the only ones who drew the Deinonychus Draxi based on the leaked script, not on Carlos Huante's arts.

I had an out-there idea for a Jurassic Park story called (Jurassic Park - The Dino Wars) Set several decades in the future the dinosaurs have since left the islands and have spread all across the globe to the point where there competing directly against humanity for the title of the dominate lifeforms of Earth. Eventually, military action occurs, and an all-out war for humanity's survival begins.

Well you think that they should have done Human/Dinosaur hybrids all the way back in the 1950’s or do a live action Extreme Dinosaurs

LOL ! I thought he said Captain Kennedy ! What a great show that would make :D

Jurassic Park 4 should have kept Harris on the island the whole time and he teams up with a raptor And rides a triceratops with mounted guns

The only good JP movie is the first one, every other was a lesser variation of the same movie or completely off the rails.

lol when Maisie was introduced as a clone in Fallen Kingdom that's when they jump the shark so bad they had to retcon that

I would love to see this this would be a good horror concept

I can't help but think of the dinosauroids looking at those concept arts.

I always thought that Jurassic World was setting up military weaponization of Dinosaurs. Interesting to see that Jurassic Park IV was where this idea came from. I have to say, Jurassic War sounds way more interesting than the pretty safe Jurassic World movies. It’s definitely a nutty script, but in the right hands that can be a great thing.

And there is Kathleen Kennedy - the destroyer of IPs

This sounds like a bad acid trip. I’m totally down for it.

WHAT THIS SOUNDS FIRE ID JUMP 4THIS lmao crazy nutz fun thats the thing about steve for he makes movie back then like u dont have to think but if u did oh man rabbit hole i can see him giving this a ok

Loved the books. First movie was great. They blew it with the second. Should have stuck closer to the book on that one.

This is exactly what I hoped and prayed for to be the “secret super-dinosaur” in the compound. The build-up to the most dangerous dinosaur ever created could have had the best reveal, ever: A bipedal, humanoid dinosaur, sitting quietly at a table, playing solitaire…

Nothing could ever beat the original Jurassic park. Its got just enough believablety and a simple cool original story. Any sequel is just more of the same. Its like Jaws, still easily the best shark film. When you try to top the original you just end up going over the top and it becomes stupid or just more of the same. Thats why so many sequels are never as good as the original.

I would have loved to see those dino human hybrids in flim. Incorporating those designs could have brought a whole new level of horror to the franchise.

For me, there are no other sequels, as there only exists the original Jurassic Park film.

After seeing those concept arts lizard from tasm perfect cover for the video wow

Closest we got of this was in the early 2000s during Halloween Horror Nights universal had a Jurassic Park house that featured dinosaur human hybrids

Something like this needs to happen 👍

This sounds more like a console/PC game plot & less like a movie plot idea

I’ll be honest, the human dinosaur hybrids that we saw don’t fit with the Jurassic Park movies but they actually would be awesome for a sifi war movie or something.

I could see this as an absolute win. The thumbnail basically looks like The Lizard from spiderman. With the right Writing and Special/Practical effects and cgi in the right places, it could be a Badass Dino horror film

Jurassic park three was one of my favorites to this day. An easy and close second to the first one. The Jurassic world movies aren't my favorite things, they don't have the feel or aesthetic of the original movies. The stranded jungle adventure feel of the third movie, amongst the "ruins" of a modern world, Idk, it is just fun they even get a boat for a time. Number three is underrated, in my opinion, nothing feels like you are beyond civilization any more, but that movie did, and did it well.

The human mix with a dinosaur looks like the lizard from the spider man franchise

They already used the Dinosaur/Human hybrid idea in a movie, they called it Super Mario Bros

I took one look at the thumbnail and went, Is that the lizard from Spiderman? (great video by the way)

Hmm, so THAT's what we get if they'd used the ancient stones to meld humans with the dinosaurs of JP. Scary.... But still intrigued!

The mother in JP3 is the equivalent of nails on a chalkboard

Nice! Thanks for this!

Infinitely more interesting than the slop they ended up with for the Jurassic World films.

Imagine if this how the lizard was made in the amazing Spider-Man movie

The most unrealistic thing of that script is that the UN can ban the cloning of dinosaurs 😂

I feel like remnants of this Human- Dinosaur hybrid concept is there in Jurassic World because there’s this mystery about why the Indominus Rex is self aware and I feel like they were gonna have it have human DNA but scrapped it
