Lets see what the hype over Jurassic World is all about tomorrow:
I could be wrong, but I think they are all still hyped, but now every single movie and tv show and music event, etc are hyped so much that none of them stand out. Too much noise to be able to see the signal!I was just telling someone the other day that movies these days do not seem to be as hyped up as they once were. I remember as a kid when movies were coming out in theaters, it seemed like a big deal. They would be advertised everywhere and the TV trailers were a big thing.
That's very true, I didn't really think about that. Also the fact that a lot of movies/TV shows seem to be the same recycled plots over and over, lacking in originality. Plus, as an adult I don't really pay attention to what movies are currently out, like I did as a child.I could be wrong, but I think they are all still hyped, but now every single movie and tv show and music event, etc are hyped so much that none of them stand out.

Did you see it in 3D or 2D?Very good movie, though as I watched the dinosaurs die and the king die almost I felt my childhood being choked. Damn that new Rex, damn t straight to hell!!
I liked that they built it up for a bit and had more of a story instead of just being all action. Don't get me wrong, the action was what I went for but that's what set it apart from 2/3. Much better storyJurassic World
Solid movie 8.5/10
A little slow to start to unravel the story, but got good and fast. Lots of action, a good twist of humor throughout the movie. Highly suggest seeing it.

3D, the actors were kind of eh eh. Like the British chick in it with the black hair is from the TV show Merlin, so not sure if she was ready for big screen. And the kids were kind of the same as well. The youngest kid is in Insidious, so when the older brother started to talk about ghost only thing I could think of was that red demon.Did you see it in 3D or 2D?
Haha the girl behind me in the theater all night: "C'mon, take your shirt off.... c'mon.... dammit! THat was a perfect chance!"Made the trek to the city to see it in IMAX 3D -- no other way I would have wanted to experience it for the first time (same treatment I gave the Hobbit films).
These were my initial thoughts:
- worth seeing in IMAX 3D (not necessary, but actually benefits this film)
- made me jump several times which was unexpected and played well point 1
- excellent tribute/tie-in/whatever you want to call it to the original Jurassic Park
- Chris Pratt is dreamy -- I have no problem saying that. But seriously, he played this role great and I think it was a better movie because of him
- I felt like a kid again. Every time I hear that music, it just mesmerizes me
We are all heartbroken.What? so he doesn't take his shirt off?
Agreed, man.One of the best movies to watch in IMAX 3D. Loved it
yep. then star wars. what a year for geeksAgreed, man.
Now I'm wanting to do a Terminator marathon to see the new one next month.
Too bad that is no where near shape or form what a raptor ever looked like. That was Spielbergs interpretation. A real raptor was only about 3 feet tall, and feathered, with hollow bones, size of a modern turkey... birds are their closest relatives.Every time a raptor got hurt I died a little inside ha. They've always been my favorites. Saw this online, it's my dream ha

LEAVE RAPTORS ALONE!!!Too bad that is no where near shape or form what a raptor ever looked like. That was Spielbergs interpretation. A real raptor was only about 3 feet tall, and feathered, with hollow bones, size of a modern turkey... birds are their closest relatives.
Deinonychus was more accurate. But too ugly of a namesake for a "cool" dinosaur ha.Too bad that is no where near shape or form what a raptor ever looked like. That was Spielbergs interpretation.

It looks less scary this way..^ haha, looks like that would make it tasty roast
They explained in the movie that none of the dinosaurs were pure, so that is why they look differentToo bad that is no where near shape or form what a raptor ever looked like.

I loved all those little twists. The genetic modification premise was a great throwback to the OG... remember the eggs they were having from the frogs that changed sexes...I did love the part where they went in complaining after it escaped and were like "well how did it ____?!" and each time the scientist is like "...well, we used ____ genes for ____, but we never thought it could do this" over and over lol
I know, I seen it. But they took a completely different Dino in the Deinonychus and labelled it the raptor. Because Velociraptor just sounds bad ass, but the real one is a quack. Same genes, but different animal. The two are distant cousins. Probably why they coined VR for the Dein in the movie.They explained in the movie that none of the dinosaurs were pure, so that is why they look different
Agreed on the throwback status.Saw this with my kids last night. Good movie overall and nice throwback to the first one. Nothing special about the regular 3D, so I'd go 2D or IMAX. I'd give this an 8/10.
Totally forgot about that one. Meant to see it and mad max.Saw San Andreas today, highly recommend it. Lots of action.
You definitely smelled what The Rock was cooking by the end of it for sure.Totally forgot about that one. Meant to see it and mad max.
Gf said SA was good too
Already done... HerculesI want to see The Rock make a Conan-esque movie. We need that.
Crap, totally spaced that he did that.Already done... Hercules
Nah not even close. Was entertaining but I want to see him in a more original role.Crap, totally spaced that he did that.
Still not as good as Conan, though lol
