* Claire Dearing, after her ActionDressRip [[http://assets-s3.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/article_photos/Chris-Bryce-467.jpg (here)]], rolls up her sleeves and ties the lower ends of her shirt in a manner identical to Dr. Ellie Sattler from the original movie [[https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/13/f5/bf/13f5bf8d05d548ae865e5f4b30972706.jpg (here)]].
* Nick is glimpsed munching snacks at his post shortly before the catastrophe starts, just like Dennis Nedry did shortly before he unleashed his sabotage.
* Also, Owen gulps a soda while having a talk with an annoyed Claire, just as Nedry gulped a soda during his rant at an annoyed Hammond.
* After roaring, the ''I. rex'' looks up as if expecting a Jurassic Park banner to drop down, like the end of the original movie. The banner has already been used as a torch, as it happens.
* One of the indoor attractions allows kids to "dig up" fossils. The camera focuses on one child brushing a curved Raptor claw like the one found at the start of the original film.
