Brief Summary
This video discusses the implications of mutant dinosaurs and the introduction of Ela St. Hubar (Sight Sea) in Jurassic World Rebirth, focusing on a theory to explain the existence of the hybrid research facility on the island. The theory suggests that Simon Maserani created the facility behind Dr. Wu's back due to concerns about Wu's hybrid work following the Scorpius Rex incident.
- Mutant dinosaurs in Jurassic World Rebirth are failed hybrid dinosaurs.
- The existence of a hybrid research facility on Ela St. Hubar causes timeline issues with established lore.
- Simon Maserani created the facility on Ela St. Hubar after losing trust in Dr. Wu's hybrid work following the Scorpius Rex incident.
Introduction to Ela St. Hubar and Mutant Dinosaurs
Jurassic World Rebirth introduced mutant dinosaurs and Ela St. Hubar, also known as Sight Sea. The existence of mutant dinosaurs and this new island creates some inconsistencies within the Jurassic Park timeline, specifically regarding established lore. The video aims to explain why Ela St. Hubar exists, addressing potential retcons and offering a head-canon theory to reconcile these issues.
Mutant Dinosaurs as Failed Hybrids
The mutant dinosaurs in Jurassic World Rebirth are not merely failed experiments of standard dinosaurs but are actually failed hybrid dinosaurs. This is supported by dialogue in the movie referring to the mutants as hybrids with cross-species DNAs. Examples include the D-Rex, a failed hybrid intended to be the Indominus Rex, and the Mutadon, a hybrid between Quetzalcoatlus and Velociraptor.
Timeline Issues and Dr. Wu's Role
The prologue of Jurassic World Rebirth takes place in 2011, two years after the creation of the first successful hybrid and one year before the Indominus Rex was born. This timeline creates issues because Dr. Wu was solely responsible for the hybrid program during this time, as confirmed in Jurassic World and Camp Cretaceous. The existence of a facility on Ela St. Hubar raises questions about whether Simon Maserani and Dr. Wu were aware of it, conflicting with the established morality rule to eliminate beings not meant to exist.
The Scorpius Rex and Maserani's Distrust
The existence of the facility on Ela St. Hubar is attributed to the Scorpius Rex incident. The Scorpius Rex, created by Dr. Wu in 2009, was the first successful hybrid dinosaur. However, its erratic and dangerous nature led Maserani to order its destruction, though Dr. Wu defied this order. This incident caused Maserani to lose trust in Dr. Wu's hybrid work.
Maserani's Secret Facility on Ela St. Hubar
After the Scorpius Rex incident, Simon Maserani created a secret facility on Ela St. Hubar to continue the hybrid program, building upon existing infrastructure. He assembled a new team to replicate Dr. Wu's work, leading to the creation of many failed hybrids like the Distort Rex and Mutadon. This explains the high number of failures compared to Dr. Wu's work.
Recap and Alternative Theories
Simon Maserani created the facility on Ela St. Hubar to accelerate hybrid creation after losing trust in Dr. Wu due to the Scorpius Rex. The facility operated from late 2009 to mid-2011, before the island was lost. An alternative theory suggests that the facility could have been a Biosyn facility, which would align better with established lore.
