VOTD: ‘Jurassic World’ Fan Trailers Offer Something Different Than The Official Version
By Russ Fischer/Nov. 26, 2014 3:55 pm EST
There’s a lot in the Jurassic World trailer, as we thoroughly dissected yesterday. But one editor had the idea that less is more, and while it’s not our place to say that the first look at the film showed too much there’s something persuasive in this short Jurassic World trailer. The one-minute edit of the footage is cut very much to the tune of the recent Godzilla trailers that worked so well. While it can’t fully emulate those edits thanks to the limitations of using footage already cut for a different trailer, there’s a vibe here that works really well.
Original Fan Teaser Cut:
There are some problems there, sure, especially where the audio dips out as Chris Pratt rides in with his gang of velociraptors. I don’t think that moment has quite the effect it needs. But this is a good concept that uses new footage to harken back to some of the memorable thrills of the original film.
Here’s the original again, for reference.
Jurassic World will be released in 3D by Universal Pictures on June 12, 2015.
