Personally, I was quite let down by the CGI in the first trailer but a quick search shows that it has been improved. The Super Bowl trailer has far better CGI than the original imo. I don't know if you agree with me but the original CGI looks bland and not realistic at all.

Additionally, I was a bit let down by Chris Pratt's motor cycle training with the velociraptors. Those raptors were the most frightening thing about the original movie. People who've seen the movie actually seem ok with it, so that's very calming.

CGI has finally come to a point where it doesn't interfere with my enjoyment of the scenes. E.g. in "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" the CGI is very close to hit that goal imo.

Why did you bold that part of my post? Did you mean to quote someone else? If you did, it doesn't matter 'cause I'm gonna hop on this discussion anyway.

That gif is interesting because usually they de-saturate the colors than make it more vibrant. I certainly agree that the original looks more bland and almost washed out. The waves and splashing around that water-dino-thing look worse in the Super Bowl commercial to me though.

And they handled that part as well as they probably could've. There's another sub-plot involving the velociraptors that I think it pretty dorky though.

You asked how people could be surprised by the success and I answered that personally I was surprised because I was let down by the trailers. Maybe I misunderstood x}

Thanks for the answer.
