JURASSIC PARK: Isla Sorna Canon and Lore Video (1 Hour)

[@yissibiiyte]

It's really strange that Isla Sorna's existence has been completely forgotten about for the past 3 movies. The closest we've gotten to it getting acknowledged is Camp Cretaceous

[@TheJmall88]

Well, Eli did briefly mention Sorna in Fallen Kingdom, and Ramsey mentioned it in Dominion to

[@yissibiiyte]

@@TheJmall88 yes, but zero physical evidence of it's existence or even an in-depth explanation beyond a one-line throwaway sentence. No Sorna dinos anywhere in sight and zero explanation about what happened to it. I genuinely thought Isla Sorna had been retconned in Fallen Kingdom when Mount Sibo was erupting and everyone was saying "the dinos are going extinct again", as if they didn't have an entire second island of them.

[@ParkRanger2000]

​@@yissibiiyte​ I mean, we kinda did get a physical look st Sorna in Dominion. Where Wu shows Maisie her past-self back on Isla Sorna in the 80s, and it was the laboratory from Jurassic Park 3.

[@thelegendofner0]

Site B was a dumb idea from the beginning. Why create a second (or sixth) island with dinosaurs in the same ocean to begin with when you already Had one. Makes No Sense. And yeah I know that was Crichtons Idea, I've read the book. Still, makes no sense. JP2 book and movie could've happened 1:1 on Nublar. And don't even get me started on JP3...

[@DinoMan2945]

Even Camp Cretaceous was trying to avoid Site B & the Five deaths entirely to show us some new island that nobody asked for.

[@Vanilladye]

Love this guy. What Klayton's doing, keeping Jurassic lore and mythology alive and strong, is so important.

[@NickTwithADHD]

I love Isla Sorna because it has this…mystique about it. It looks so tropical but has regular trees and weird terrain. It’s like a fever dream of an island and I love it. It being baptized in old world lore with superstitions and calamities makes it even better. They can do an entire fake documentary of the island and I’d watch it. It’s just that cool of a place.

[@nogo6880]

Isla Sorna as a location kinda gives me the vibe that New Mombassa from ODST gave me. A big sense of mystery, Isla Sorna with the mystery of Ingen and the hunters, and ODST with your missing squad and the mystery of who ever is guiding you throughout the game. The shere erieness of the settings, Isla Sorna with the lush tropical enviorment but the knowledge that literally anything could be watching you, and the feeling that New Mombassa gives with the arguably beutiful futaristic city architecture but the contrast of the darkness of night and the rain falling down on the empty streets knowing well enough you're most likely the only help you're gonna get being alone. And finally the empthasis the stories about them simply put on the locations themselves. Isla Sorna has many names given out of supersticion, it seemingly swallows most anyone thwt goes to it, the island istself has numerous mysterues of its own from ruins to signs of rival comoanies and espionage, and then New Mombassa being the new biggest city on earth yet still falling within hours once the enemies turn up on the front door justmto find out that the enmies are looking for somsthing and the way the game just shoves you into the city making you feel like you're really their. Its a weird parralel but i think it makes sense, either that im too high and should stop commenting dumb shit

[@ForsakenWolf]

[@jetsszr]

I've been watching you for 7 years and it cant be any better

[@FrostGhidorahEX]

Isla Sorna Site B The land where Something Had Survived An example of nature's beauty and its terror. A true Lost World. Its sad to think that Hammond's line of "It's only a matter of time before this 'Lost World' is found and pillaged" given what happened after his passing with the illegal tests and the black market acquisitions That combined with the Spino being a hypercarnivore Does make you wonder what if anything still remains on that island

[@kyleenglot9184]

Yeah I feel like with next to zero security or oversight on the island. This may have allowed for a very unstable ecosystem. With a very aggressive and territorial Spino who seemed to have a similar killing instinct to the Indominus Rex in Jurassic world, and the uncontrolled population growth of velociraptors would have lead to an imbalance with two apex species taking out most of the herbivores quite quickly.

[@SomethingScotty]

With today's technology and peoples sensibilities having toughened up since the 90's in terms of horror films, I'd really like to see them reboot Jurassic Park 1 and make it as accurate to the book as possible. I love both the book and the film for different reasons. The film is just a fun dino action romp, whereas the book is a legit horror story set in a dino theme park. I'd love to see the book version brought back to life now that we have the technology to pull off some of the things that happen in the book, an example being the baby raptor that hops around Tim's shoulders before he throws it as bait to the adult raptors, etc., etc..

[@ukotoa1639]

I stand by that the downfall Isla Sorna was tied to that Frankenstein’s monster known as the Spinosaurus since it was such a horrific creature nothing could challenge it save a fully grown T-Rex but even then I don’t think it would be an easy fight.

[@bando3148]

Dude, a Netflix series with Robert Muldoon constructing the park being that he was a game warden meaning he can structure the habitats and everything else? That would be a fucking series I will watch, especially if it let all the way up to the events of Jurassic Park

[@Riku_Light]

@@askers_ Book canon and movie canon are VASTLY different. In the books, Nublar was bombed to kingdom come.

[@williansnobre]

The Spino was a prototype Indominus. Having it as gene spliced monster makes it less annoying as a Rex killer since it was probably juiced up on purpose to be a weapon.

[@Riku_Light]

@@askers_ The end of the first book, they bombed Nublar with napalm. Obviously you never actually read it. Jurassic Park The Game took that idea from the book.

[@zhikari3231]

​@@askers_"Isla Nublar Incident (1993 The Costa Rica Napalm Bombing is an event that occurred just after the InGen Incident in the novel canon where the Costa Rican National Guard bombed Isla Nublar to kill the dinosaurs on the island. It is mentioned in Jurassic Park: The Game though there is little evidence that it actually occurred. A similar bombing happens in the ending of Jurassic Park III: The DNA Factor. Story During the Isla Nublar Incident of 1993, the United States Military made plans to send B52 bombers to Isla Nublar to eradicate the dinosaurs roaming freely after the humans on the island were evacuated."

[@chaylynnpetherbridge683]

Movie idea. Titled “Sorna”. Takes place after dominion. It’s straight up horror. A group of Jurassic park fanatics go to the island to check out the buildings and history surrounding them. They are under the impression, as with the rest of the world, that dinosaurs are no longer present on the island, as opposed to the insanity of the mainland. But they are very wrong! The group is smart though, don’t make stupid decisions and try hard to survive working together. Main character is Ian Malcolm’s daughter, that’s discovered near the end as a twist though.

About Ingen's list, the books kinda sorta had a list. Jurassic Park repeatedly mentions 15 species. Wu lets slip that he "thought" he had cloned over 20 species, which can be argued as an explanation why Sorna in The Lost World has a few more dinosaurs that weren't on Isla Nublar, like the Parasaurolophus, Mussaurus, Ornitholestes, Pachycephalosaurus and Carnotaurus. So going by the books' universe, Ingen's list would have been about 25 species.

[@buckduane1991]

I think any creature left stuck in a cage with limited food would end up being hyper aggressive when something edible came around… those that got out earlier were able to roam, those in the cage that were not as aggressive starved to death and died out, leaving the more aggressive ones alive to breed as well. Put those together: starving individuals and the more aggressive members surviving by any means necessary, it explains them.

[@rainbowracer9576]

Awesome Video!❤️

[@João-u8b]

Klayton, one interesting thing I want to tell you is that the guy who made the InGen List confirmed that some Inactive Dinosaurs were indeed created on Isla Sorna, but only as "Prototypes" For example, there were 4 Herrerasaurus created by InGen in 1993, and this species didn't have a complete Genome (only 60%). There was also a skeleton of an Apatosaurus near the Workers' village. This explains why Roland Tembo had a species profile of the Corythosaurus. So it's possible that inactive dinosaurs like Metriacanthosaurus and Suchomimus were already created at this time.

[@monarzy5117]

When it comes to the bird cage, honestly i've always assumed they were the same pterasaurs as the other movies and was just a nesting ground for them at that point. We dont see the full cage ever so was easy to assume a part of it was damaged and an opening was made after the hurricain. As i said, a nesting ground was always what made the most sense to me since it fits all the requirement for a wild animal to concider it a safe enviroment for breeding, high elevation, hard to reach and near a source of water abd fish supply.

[@CharlieBuran]

That ingen hunter that told carter to hurry up that survived the long grass velociraptors only to die by the claws of delta in Jurassic World is quite ironic.

[@guillaumebabey4484]

Incidently, the two types of Pteranodon we see in the franchise were modelled after two different species, P. sternbergi and P. longiceps. The former is argued to be a different genre renamed Geosternbergia. The gargoyle like pteranodons in the JW era are closer to female specimens of P. Longiceps. What it means to the lore is probably nothing as I doubt the producers put that much thought into it.
