Brief Summary
This video explores the fan theory that there are two Distort Rexes in Jurassic World Rebirth due to size inconsistencies. It explains the director's tendency to adjust sizes for dramatic effect, similar instances in the Jurassic franchise, and proposes a theory where the two D-Rexes are the original and its offspring, reproducing asexually.
- Size inconsistencies of the Distort Rex in different scenes led to the theory of two D-Rexes.
- The director, Gareth Edwards, is known for adjusting sizes for dramatic effect.
- A theory is proposed where the two D-Rexes are the original and its offspring, reproducing asexually.
Introduction
The video introduces the concept of the Distort Rex from Jurassic World Rebirth, the franchise's first mutant dinosaur. It addresses the fan speculation that there might be two Distort Rexes, despite the movie suggesting there is only one. The video aims to explain the origin of this theory and explore the possibility of there being two Distort Rexes.
The Two Distort Rexes Theory
The theory suggests that there are two Distort Rexes due to a noticeable size difference in different scenes. In one scene, the Distort Rex is massive, eating a helicopter, while in another, it appears smaller when eating Martin. This discrepancy has led some fans to believe that there might be a second Distort Rex. The size difference is significant enough to warrant speculation.
Gareth Edwards and Size Inconsistencies
The director of Jurassic World Rebirth, Gareth Edwards, is known for adjusting the size of creatures for dramatic effect, as seen in his previous movies like Godzilla 2014 and Rogue One. This practice is not unique to Edwards; the Jurassic franchise itself has instances of size inconsistencies, such as with the Mosasaurus. While other dinosaurs like Indominus Rex and Tyrannosaurus Rex maintain consistent sizes, the Mosasaurus's size varies throughout the franchise, with its most accurate size being the kaiju size from Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom.
Titanosaurus Size Discrepancies
The video addresses size issues with the Titanosaurus in Jurassic World Rebirth. Size estimates vary, with some depicting it as a massive kaiju-like creature. While technically accurate based on available information, this size appears disproportionately large compared to other dinosaurs like the Brachiosaurus. Other depictions offer a more canonical size, larger than the Brachiosaurus but not excessively so.
The Possibility of Two Distort Rexes
The video explores the possibility of there being two Distort Rexes in Jurassic World Rebirth. Despite the opening prologue suggesting only one Distort Rex, the video proposes that the original creature could have reproduced asexually over 17 years, resulting in an offspring. The larger Distort Rex seen with the helicopter could be the original, while the smaller one seen later is its offspring. Asexual reproduction has been established in the franchise with the Scorpius Rex and Blue the Velociraptor.
Conclusion
Officially, there are no two Distort Rexes in Jurassic World Rebirth, and the size discrepancies are attributed to Gareth Edwards's directorial choices. However, the video argues that it is not far-fetched to suggest the existence of two Distort Rexes, with the possibility of the original reproducing asexually. The video concludes by stating that it would require official confirmation to validate the theory of two Distort Rexes.
