JP Producers Say JP4 Plans Fallen Through
In what probably won't be a surprise to most of us, JP's long-time producers, Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall said yesterday that no new work has been done on JP4, and that Kennedy thinks that "maybe" the franchise is finished. "You know, when Crichton passed away, I sorta felt maybe that's it," Kennedy told reporters at a press junket for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. "Maybe that's a sign that we don't mess with it." Is this the end, JP fans? I'd say probably, but then again we've heard talk like this before. To paraphrase the great Troy McClure, "Who knows what adventures we'll have between now and the time the franchise becomes unprofitable?" (Thanks ComingSoon.net, Clinton, Ryan, Eric, and Mark)

JP's Creator, Michael Crichton, Dead at 66
Michael Crichton, novelist, screenwriter, and best known to us here at DJP3P as the visionary inventor of the fictional "Jurassic Park" in his two novels, died yesterday, according to a report at ETOnline.com, after waging what is described as a "private battle" with cancer.

He was 66. Crichton started his writing career as a way to pay his way through medical school, crafting tight, reality-based cautionary thrillers that would become his style throughout his career. He was never afraid to tackle popular controversies, and in fact reveled in turning them on their head, plowing into tricky subjects such as sexual harassment ("Disclosure"), global warming ("State of Fear"), or, my (obvious) personal favorite, what he saw as the dangerous game of genetic manipulation ("Jurassic Park"). Popular not only for his novels but television and movie work as well, he is to this day the only person to have the #1 movie (JP), the #1 TV show (ER), and the #1 book (Disclosure), all at the same time. incest porn (Thanks Phil)

 Several JP Dino Props up for Auction
JP fans with deep, deep pocketbooks will be most interested to learn about this group of 16 Ebay items, all featuring maquettes, props, and actual real life animatronics from the JP films. Ranging in price from the understandable ($400 for Grant's Raptor nasal cavity) to the obscene ($60k for a full size JP3 raptor), these would certainly be fine gifts for a JP fanatic or, hey, a webmaster of a long-running JP website! The auction takes place tomorrow, August 1st. (Thanks Nate and Charlie)

Stan Winston, Dead at 62
 A sad day for all JP fans today, as word comes via AICN that the father of Jurassic Park's dinosaurs, proponent and champion of live-action special effects, and "dino consultant" on all 3 Jurassic films, Stan Winston, has died. He was 62. Winston was always a firebrand in the JP community, with some accusing him of bullying directors to get his robot dinos screentime over the fancier (yet far more expensive) computer generated imagery. In JP3, he worked with director Joe Johnston to pioneer camerawork that seamlessly blended CG with his robotic creations in the same scene, often within the same shot. Winston loved to talk, especially to the press, and could always be counted on for an amusing quote or ancedote, often supplying us with juicy plot tidbits he probably shouldn't have revealed so early. Stan loved his work, and it was obvious he loved JP as much as we all do. He certainly will be missed. (Thanks Ian)
