5 Ways Jurassic World Sets Itself Up For Sequels

While many of us expected Jurassic World to do well in theaters, few could have predicted just how monstrous it's been at the box office. Right out the gate, the film began breaking records and has just enjoyed he highest-grossing opening weekend of all-time.

3) No More Amusement Parks

Based on the events of Jurassic World, one thing is abundantly clear: There can’t be another amusement park. This is now the second time that dinosaurs have escaped captivity and wreaked havoc on park guests. The first time it happened, not many people died and it was more of a secretive, secluded incident. Jurassic World, however, puts 20,000 people in danger. That’s 20,000 potential lawsuits and 20,000 people with smartphones that would make a Pteranodon attack go viral within seconds. The legal implications from such a catastrophe alone are staggering (and, actually, could lead to a great sequel in the right hands), meaning this may very well be the last time those iconic wooden doors swing open and usher guests into a Jurassic theme park.

Then again, with the dino embryos now off the island (again, more on that in a minute), anything is possible, and I could easily see the next Jurassic installment exploring the idea of Jurassic Park knock-offs that spring up in less legally-restrictive parts of the world. Would the UN try to stop something like that? Or could greed and human curiosity for the extinct allow such a thing to happen?

With Jurassic World’s CEO dead and the park now closed, there’s also one major question left unanswered: What happens to the dinosaurs left in the park? What do you do with a gigantic Mosasaurus? You could always just leave them on the island, of course, but I’m guessing InGen will want to put them to good use…
