This made me hopeful! I have an extreme weakness for these Jurassic films. I’ve seen them all. I was confused when everyone bashed Jurassic World 1 (I thought it was awesome). But the sequels sucked. I saw them anyway, though, and I’m nervously excited for Rebirth. David Koepp (the writer of Jurassic Park 1 & 2) purportedly wrote this one, though I wouldn’t be surprised if he outsourced it to ChatGPT haha.
I love what you said about people expecting sequels or new iterations of video games to be 2x the previous, and they often deliver, but with these sort of spectacles you’re sorta just hoping it doesn’t lose the spark of the first. Jurassic World 4 has it easy though: they just have to play that theme music and hit a few of those well-established beats. That being said, Jurassic Universe would make me 10x more excited!
I feel the same way! Jurassic World is probably my second favorite in the franchise. I thoroughly enjoyed that one. But yeaaah those sequels both dropped the ball bigtime.
I’m surprised that I don’t here people bring up that point about gaming more often! I hate to say we should be tougher critics, but it is strange that this is the standard we’ve accepted, where the best we can hope for is that a franchise doesn’t crash and burn as it continues.
Hope you get a chance to see it soon! Thanks for taking the time to read. Best of luck on your travels 🤟
