Jurassic Parkis an excellent movie.
It’s a rare movie that transcends being simply ‘good’, or even ‘popular’.
It’s certainly more important than just a ‘favourite’.
It’s a legendary film.
It convinces you its premise is true without trying.
It’s a Mt Rushmore Of Movies contender, one of two by Spielberg alongside Jaws.
And then they made five more.
Jurassic Park 2 is still firmly in the Pretty Good category of movie.
None of which are words you could use to describe the third entry, Jurassic Park 3.
And yet, here I still am with the new trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth.
And look, I’m just going to say it.
World’s two sequels, Fallen Kingdom andDominion, are not Pretty Good.
They are, in fact, Bad.
It’s not a great ratio.
Superman and Mission: Impossible will be fine.
I’m not so sure.
I’m not at all surprised we’re getting a new Jurassic World movie this summer.
It has proven time and time again to be a reliable franchise.
What does surprise me is how much I care.
I’m here because, for some reason, I really really really want to watch Jurassic Park 7.
We’re also back on an island.
We even have raptors (scary ones, not like Blue) again.
Something about Jurassic Park has its claws - specifically its raised toe talons - in me.
Rebirth might be a fresh start for the series, but it’s same old same old for me.
I’ll be there day one with my dinosaur cap on tight.
