Jurassic World might have made a huge splash in the movie industry across the last few months but the Movie Mistakes website has confirmed that the sci-fi film has topped the 2015 mistakes list, with a total of 19 errors.
This news probably sounds pretty horrendous for a franchise of this size but don't worry, the errors are a total of both major and minor issues with the film. In fact – just to add a little more perspective – the first ever Jurassic Park film (1993) recorded a staggering 156 errors.
Topping the mistakes list doesn't bode well for the director of Jurassic World, Colin Trevorrow, the same man that will direct Star Wars: Episode IX.
Many Star Wars fans were left in a bit of a conundrum when Disney was the party unveiled to be recreating the newest Star Wars sequel. Some fans were excited about the return of the sci-fi franchise; however, some fear that newer additions might not live up to their predecessors fame – and news that the proposed director for the movie has been creating arguably mistake-ridden films of late is certainly not a reassuring sign.
Jurassic World might have taken some flack for mistakes and mishaps throughout the film, but in fairness the movie did gross $1.24billion in the first three weeks, according to the IBTimes. The sheer size of the Star Wars and Jurassic Park/World fan-base is phenomenal and there is definitely potential that under Colin Trevorrow's direction, Star Wars' new episode could prove successful.
It has also been reported that Trevorrow has been pencilled in to direct the next Jurassic World sequel, which should be hitting our screens sometime in 2018. Although, the task of reaching out to Star Wars fans and attracting a larger audience could prove to be a tough task for the director, especially if the film is to record a high amount of errors like Jurassic World.
Some inaccuracies in Jurassic Park/World have been well documented in the past such as the fact that the Velociraptor actually looked much more bird-like in reality, and reportedly only stood half a metre high, all of which was pretty inaccurately portayed in the Jurassic Park films/sequel. However, these mistakes cannot be fixed now and especially not by Colin Trevorrow – in fact, imagine they did change how they looked, there would be uproar!
However, it was more fundamental concerns that have been raised by critics in Jurassic World. For example, in one incident Chris Pratt is talking to Bryce Dallas Howard without moving his lips – clearly not the type of error that fans want to see during the return of the Star Wars franchise.
