It has been announced that Michael Giacchino is to score JURASSIC WORLD, the fourth film in the dino-franchise.
Giacchino made stop-motion dinosaur movies when he was nine years old, and his first professional composing gig was scoring the Playstation 2 videogame of THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK. Giacchino says that scoring the new film "is an incredible opportunity to bring full circle the journey of dinosaurs and film that started in my backyard over 30 years ago".

Both Jurassic Park sequels were big turkeys.
(There's a dinosaur joke in there somewhere, but I'm too tired right now)
Both had fantastic scores, though.

Six-foot turkeys. You stare at them, and they just stare right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side, from the other sequel you didn't even know was coming. I don't know where I'm going with this, but the point is, you are alive when they start to eat your brain. So you know, try to show a little respect.
Haha, love it

This news doesn't make me any more interested in this film.
Nor me. I get the impression it will be nothing more than a regurgitation of the first one.
Hello and welcome to Wonderful World of Film Franchises! Maybe you haven't seen any movies in the various Tarzan, Sherlock, James Bond, Halloween or Friday the 13th series, but that's pretty much what happens in most film franchises. Did you expect JURASSIC WORLD to instead be more akin to MY DINNER WITH ANDRE? Or to instead be a political thriller? The point of movies in this specific series is man vs. dinosaurs, end of story, so I'm not sure why you would expect something else, you're either onboard for that or see what else is playing onscreen.
Well said.

As a fan of Giacchino, the Jurassic Park scores, AND composers playing with others' themes, this is all welcome news.

(Btw, The Lost World wasn't really Giacchino's first professional gig, or was it? He co-composed the music for that Donald Duck Videogame "Maui Mallard" of the SNES/Genesis-era and he probably did that before the Jurassic Park-game, didn't he? I'm fairly certain the Playstation2 came out later. Anyway I enjoyed the music for that game a lot, too. At least for the SNES. I never played it's Genesis/Mega Drive-counterpart.  )
He probably meant it was his first professional job as a solo composer, or first job composing for an orchestra. Or he just wants to forget Maui Mallard, for some reason!
The Playstation 2 bit is my mistake, you're right it was the Playstation. God, I feel old.
