'Jurassic World' gets early screening to raise funds for Museum of the Rockies with key figures

"Jurassic World" is scheduled to hit theaters nationwide on June 12 but there will be a special screening on June 10 in Bozeman, Montana. The early screening of the film will be for the benefit of the Museum of the Rockies. 

Several key figures from the film will be at the screening. Frank Marshall, producer for "Jurassic World," will attend for commentary and promotion purposes. Paleontologists Dr. Jack Horner and Robert T. Bakker will also be attending the screening for a Q&A session with the audience. 

"For me, it's really exciting. I've worked on all the movies," Horner mentioned in the post cited by KRTV. "I basically work for Steven Spielberg and my job is to make sure that the dinosaurs look as accurate as possible." 

Horner, who had been a consultant for all four films in the franchise, will address changes and updates that have occurred in the time between all of the films. For instance, when the original film came out in 1993, scientists did not yet discover that raptors had proto-feathers or that the stegosaurus didn't flash its back plates the way they do in most drawings. They did try to remedy this by adding feather-like features on the velociraptor for "Jurassic Park 3." 

Horner stated, "The true science is based on what we do here at Museum of the Rockies. We are tied together pretty tightly with that movie." 

The early screening costs $35 and there is a $75 VIP pre-screening party as well, to be held at the Museum of the Rockies. Museum members will be able to purchase tickets ahead of time while the general public will be able to make their purchase starting May 1. 

Horner did mention that surprise guests will be attending the pre-screening so it is possible that stars Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard could be making an appearance. 

Proceedings from the pre-screening will go to the Museum of the Rockies.
