TCTTS said:The Jurassic World: Dominion footage shown at CinemaCon looked absolutely epic. As someone who grew up loving dinosaurs and the original film, I have a strong gut feeling that this final chapter is going to be the best one since the original. I can’t wait. #JurassicWorldDominion

I mean, best since the OG isn't really saying much.
Ehh, kinda. Jurassic World is solid. If this is better, I'll be pretty impressed.
Last night we put the last bit of reverb on the last roar. Thanks to Al Nelson, Gwen Whittle, Pete Horner, Chris Boyes and everyone at Skywalker Sound for putting so much heart and soul into our mix for #JurassicWorldDominion. It is alive. pic.twitter.com/XBQCwEzIfz

First trailer has to be soon, I'd imagine…

Well the assumption is that you buy into the hype if you're posting it, right?
But btw, I'm more hyped for this than I have been for any of the other new ones.
Nice!
Seems like a good place to drop this nugget.

Sent this to a couple of cat-obsessed friends yesterday. It's so good, and legitimately well done.
I now need a Jurassic Park Christmas movie.
A JP directed by Shane Black? Sign me up.
The light coming from the truck is a nice touch.
For real. I watched it more times than I care to admit.

The sound as he runs for the cat food.
So ridiculous!

My super-nerdy, by-the-numbers take...
Jurassic World released June 12, 2015. Its first teaser trailer released Tuesday, November 25, 2014, the Tuesday before Thanksgiving (three days before the first The Force Awakens teaser trailer released that Friday).
29 weeks from teaser trailer to movie premiere.
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom released June 22, 2018. Its first teaser trailer released Thursday, December 7, 2017.
28 weeks from teaser trailer to movie premiere.
Jurassic World: Dominion releases June 10, 2022. So, if precedent holds, 28 weeks prior is the week of December 5-9, while 29 weeks prior is the week of November 28 - December 2 (the weekend after Thanksgiving). In other words, history tells us we're potentially looking at the first teaser trailer anywhere from next week (Thanksgiving week) to the first full week of December.
That said, we *did* technically get that IMAX prologue/preview thing exclusively in IMAX theaters with Fast 9 this past June, something neither of the previous two JW movies had that far in advance, which could "push" the first teaser trailer back to, yeah, perhaps the Super Bowl.
If I had to guess, though, I'm betting we get the first teaser trailer theatrically with Spider-Man: No Way Home on December 17, and it'll drop online either that week or the week prior, falling right inside the JW teaser trailer release range. No Way Home is going to be the biggest box-office draw in over two years, since Endgame, and every studio is going to want all their massive trailers attached to it, Universal included.

Cool
TCTTS, for the record that doesn't count as a trailer! Hahaha still holding I it for super bowl!!
The dinosaur nerd in me is annoyed by a few parts of that, but it looks cool.

Agreed. The prologue finally being officially released this week tells me the first trailer itself is probably a ways off now. Super Bowl seems way more likely now.
Official embed + poster...
Great prologue! My 6 year old (as well as my 6 year old self) loved the 65 million year flashback sequence. Though he was in denial that the T-Rex could lose and die.
Ok, now for the "nerd/actually" comment, T-Rex, as far as we know at this point, was the absolute alpha theropod of its time. The other theropod that defeats and kills the T-Rex appears to be one of either an Acrocanthasaurus which lived 110m years ago, well b4 Rex, Giganotosaurus which predated Rex by 30m years or Carcharodontosaurus which predated Rexie by 10m or so years. G and C lived in South America and Africa respectively and were separated from N. America by water and Acro lived here in TX and the SW. we think that the theropod prints at Glenrose are Acro prints. While all three of these were either as big or bigger than Rex, they most likely never crossed paths. So that is a bit of a jump to assume 2 big alphas in one area in N. America 65m ya. But WHO CARES?!?! The graphics were awesome and I thought it was great that they feathered many of the dinos as we now think many theropods were. So cool and fun. While the JW movies haven't been "great", the story isn't why I love them. Just give me dinos. Inject them straight into my veins!

Right there with you.
These are dinosaur movies. And as great as the original was, I actually got slightly more enjoyment out of The Lost World since IMO a dinosaur movie should feature lots of stompin' and chompin'

Here is a great video I found with a paleontologist reviewing the accuracy of the Prologue video. Fun stuff...
I do wonder if the large theropod advisory is actually a Gigo or an Acro, as the Acro had a large hump on the back and was also over 40 ft long. The Prologue's versions seems to have that spinal hump. Both were relatively closely related as they belonged to the Carcharodontosauridae family. But I'm no paleontologist...

More motorcycles and raptors
Thought they would have evolved beyond simple "running" at this point.
That's apparently a different (actual) species of "raptor" but once again it's the wrong size for the species. Wish they would just use Utahraptor or Deinonychus
They have a bit of leeway with stuff like that. First of all, it's obviously just a movie. None of this is even possible to begin with. But they've also said that since these are all genetically engineered dinosaurs, they did things like get rid of the feathers as to met people's expectations rather than gave them hyper-accuracy. So I don't see why they couldn't have done the same with size, etc.
Velociraptor is so much easier to pronounce than Deinonychus. Plus, velociraptor lent itself so much easier to a new NBA team at the time the original movie came out ...

So they should've just gone with Utahraptor to begin with
