Jurassic World parody trailer puts raptors on motorcycles, brings back Jeff Goldblum

When the first trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was released, quite a few parodies of the preview found their way online shortly thereafter. One of the parody trailer creators has now turned his attention to Jurassic World, and has created a wonderfully weird remix of the footage that features dinosaurs with the head of Jeff Goldblum, a CSI: Miami reference, and velociraptors riding motorcycles.

And those are some of the least-bizarre elements of the parody trailer.

YouTube user Darren Wallace, who previously gave the world a Disney-fied version of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer, managed to pack a lot into his Jurassic World parody, including a brief shot of Sauron’s eye from The Lord of the Rings films, Chris Pratt in a pirate outfit, and various other, seemingly random nuggets of silliness. The video begins with the message “The Following Makes No Sense,” and, well… it certainly lives up to that promise.

The video ends with a version of the Jurassic World title card that features a velociraptor doing a stunt on a motorcycle.

The real Jurassic World (which is not likely to feature any motorcycle-riding velociraptors) hits theaters June 12, 2015.

The Jurassic World trilogy came to its epic conclusion with the third and final film, Jurassic World Dominion. Set four years after the events of Fallen Kingdom, dinosaurs now roam the Earth and struggle to coexist with humans. Owen Grady (Guardians of the Galaxy's Chris Pratt) and Claire Dearing (Rocketman's Bryce Dallas Howard) are secretly living with and raising Maisie Lockwood (Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom's Isabella Sermon). Mercenaries eventually kidnap Maisie and Beta, the offspring of the Velociraptor known as Blue, forcing Owen and Claire out of hiding as they seek to find their adopted daughter.

Meanwhile, Dr. Alan Grant (Jurassic Park's Sam Neill), Dr. Ellie Sattler (Marriage Story's Laura Dern), and Dr. Ian Malcolm (Independence Day's Jeff Goldblum) head to Italy to investigate Biosyn, a genetics corporation responsible for decimating crops in the U.S. through the use of genetically engineered locusts.

Director Colin Trevorrow wrapped up the modern Jurassic World trilogy in dramatic (and familiar) fashion with Jurassic World Dominion, which brought back many of the original characters and dinosaurs from the original Jurassic Park films.

The Dominion team did so with a mix of practical and visual effects, in keeping with the franchise's storied tradition of mixing in-camera movie magic with groundbreaking digital animation techniques. In addition to a visual effects team led by ILM's David Vickery, Dominion relied on John Nolan Studio to create practical, animatronic creatures that added a physical component to the film's menagerie.

The Jurassic World trilogy concluded in epic, roaring fashion with Jurassic World Dominion, which brought the franchise full circle in multiple ways. Not only did Dominion bring back Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow behind the camera, but it also reunited the modern trilogy's stars, Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, with those of the original Jurassic Park: Sam Neill, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum.

Dominion also featured the return of some popular dinosaurs from the original trilogy, as well as the introduction of a few amazing -- and terrifying -- new dinosaurs, too. Blending all of these fresh and familiar elements together was no small feat. Digital Trends spoke to the film's visual effects supervisor, Academy Award nominee David Vickery, about the "digital paleontology" his team performed while revisiting the franchise's past in Jurassic World Dominion.
