Forget casting, and forget rumors about the plot. It’s time to get down to brass tacks and talk about important matters, such as which dinosaurs we can expect in Jurassic World. Look no further than the Jurassic World website, which recently updated with images and profiles of six new, wacky dinos. Well, new to the Jurassic Park franchise. Obviously, all these guys have been around for a minimum of 65 million years.
“The Suchomimus is known for the distinctive sail on its lower back and the huge, foot-long claws on each thumb that it uses to catch fish.”
Hopefully that thumb doesn’t end up someplace else (I’m secretly hoping that thumb ends up someplace else).
“Baryonyx is one of the largest fish-eating dinosaurs. Its crocodile-like head and dangerous claws make it a master hunter of rivers and lakes for Cretaceous-era sushi.”
“Dimophodon is one of our park’s pterosaurs, or flying reptiles. It evolved to soar through the Jurassic skies, with large eyes, quick jaws and sharp talons perfect for catching fish, or other prey.”
What’s with all the fish-eating dinos? Does Jurassic World actually take place underwater? Remember, you heard it here first, folks.
“Edmontosaurus is a flat-headed, duck-billed dinosaur. Once threatened by the T. Rex, it loves hanging out in herds and munching on conifers and other vegetation.”
“A fleet-footed carnosaur, Metriacanthosaurus is named for its distinctively spined vertebrae. It once stalked the ancient Jurassic plains, feeding on other dinosaurs.”
“Microceratus may the smallest dinosaurs in Jurassic World. They have short frills and beak-shaped mouths perfect for snapping off leaves and twigs.”
A TINY BABY TRICERATOPS! Give this movie the Best Picture Oscar now.
Sadly, still no official picture of the movie’s made up, spike covered super dino, Indominus Rex. Gotta pay your two bits to see that guy in non-plastic form, I guess.
