I'm waiting for raptors to come in and eat the employees.

Nah, the idea of the raptors being the heroes of the film seems more likely.

It's the sort of classic subversion type thing they do in franchises after all.

I'm starting to wonder how smart the pond monster is, what with the train going across the water and all.

I'd really love for the Raptors to be minor characters in their own right, with little personalities and stuff, but maybe that's hoping for too much XD

Jurassic World Minions?

Way ahead of you "Jurassic Game of Thrones"

You know what... it's so campy, I really wanna see that now.

If you can train lions, bears, and other land animals... why not Raptors?

He better have cute ironic nicknames for them, like cuddles or fluffy

And one not-so-ironically named Nibbler.

Princess, Nibbler and bob

Bob, agent of SLASH?

And not a Goldbloom in sight! I'm down with this for sure

Has anyone mentioned that the new dino is killing for sport? That's a pretty awesome plot point, seeing as very few animals hunt for anything other than food and survival, bar one of course.

You mean dolphins?

Wonder if Val Kilmer and Micheal Douglas would make a cameo appearance

LoL! Jihadin, I think you may just have spoilered the twist ending- there's were two Awesomesauruses!

Don't chimps engage in violence for all kinds of reasons, including 'just because'?

Orcas just like to hurt things.

Did they get Chris Pratt on board so someone can make a 'Jurassic Parks and Recreations' joke?

.... Ok I never even thought of that one and I don't think I've seen anyone else say it either.

. . . FIRST!

New "viral" website has launched-

Apparently InGen is still alive and kicking.

So apparently the Raptors are named "Echo", "Delta", and "Charlie".

Yeah Owen apparently is ex-military. There is also the forth raptor "Blue" and all four of them are color coded XD

Honestly Raptor Squad remains the only thing I will go to this movie to see

"Charlie, Delta, Echo.r, do you copy"
"Rawr, Grggl Rawr"
"Whos idea was it to have these guys fight the Dino?"

How is that a facepalm?

If somebody is just breeding a punch of raptors in a row it would make sense to just name them Alpha, Beta, Charlie, Delta, Echo, etc etc etc instead of 1, 2, 3. It's an easy enough enough naming convention to implement.

I'm just gonna guess that they will be fighting Alpha and Beta at some point...

" SCREEEEEETCH! SCREEETCH!........screetch."
"Oh crap! The super Dino just broke through the outer perimeter and ate Johnson and Stockholm! Now it's on its way to the gift shop and there's a tour of innocent orphans there!!"
"Screetch?"
"Oh sorry, Echo just needed a mic check"

Blue Raptor just made me imagine some grotesque instantaneous metamorphosis into a Voltron, with the raptors joining Starlord to become Velocitron, a creature of snarls and murder. If they give them voice simulators, like that dog in UP, I will be there opening night, hooting and hollering for them to 'Form Blazing CLAW!'
