*UPDATE* So yesterday's trailer was definitely the last one we'll see before Jurassic World opens, NBC debuted a new one a couple of days ago during an airing of Jurassic Park. You can check that trailer out below.*
Just as it's probably a mistake for the characters in Jurassic World to keep screwing around with dinosaurs given the disasters of the past, some would say Universal and director Colin Trevorrow are courting disaster with the film. Fourteen years have passed since Jurassic Park III, the lowest-grossing of the franchise and the one most criticized by audiences, and there's always the risk that audiences have simply moved on. But with analysts projecting a $100M opening weekend and plans already underway for sequels, the likelihood is that Jurassic World will chew up the competition like an angry Indominus Rex.
The final trailer for the film is the closest it has looked to being a pure horror, with 90 seconds of mounting tension, fleeing humans, and out-of-control dinosaurs hatching at every turn. The main baddie this time is the newest attraction, the Indominus Rex, a hybrid creature made-up of Tyrannosaurus Rex and raptor DNA. Gee, what could go wrong there?
And since this is the end of the marketing campaign, why not go out on a silly note? Comedian Annie Lederman has recreated an earlier trailer totally with hot dogs, chicken nuggets, and one adorable canine. Why? Does it matter? Making movies out of food is fun.
Starring Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Omar Sy, Irrfan Khan, Jake Johnson, Ty Simpkins, Nick Robinson, Judy Greer, and the returning BD Wong (the only reprised character), Jurassic World opens June 12th.
