Journey to the Lost World

Journey to the Lost World is the upcoming film that is adapted loosely from The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, but the film bears a closer resemblance to The Mysterious Island by Jules Verne.

Differences from The Lost World

 * The setting is the 21st century rather than the early 20th century.
 * In the film, the characters are stranded on an island, however, in the novel and previous film adaptions, the story takes place on a plateau.
 * There are giant crabs, giant sharks, giant octopuses, flesh-eating vines and giant finned lizards in the film. In the novel there are only dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures.
 * The expedition in the novel originally journeyed to the Lost World to prove Prof. Challenger's claims that dinosaurs lived in modern times. In the film, the expedition accidentally crash-land into the Lost World.
