I mean its released as a summer blockbuster and I think it did a good job as fun theatre experience. No ones going in thinking its going to be the godfather or citizen Kane. There's been plenty of blockbusters released this year that's not as well made.
This.

It may not have been a great movie but it was definitely nostalgia porn. And that fascinated me.

Force awakens gonna crank up that nostalgia to 11 :wow:

No surprise but:

Jurassic World Sequel Planned For 2018 - Fortune


It’s already the third-highest grossing film of all-time, just six weeks after its U.S. release.

Jurassic World, the latest movie in Steven Spielberg’s popular Jurassic Park franchise, has already made Universal Pictures a tidy profit.

The film, with a budget of $150 million, has raked in a jaw-dropping $1.5 billion worldwide. That comes out to a neat 1,000% return, just six weeks into its run.

Unsurprisingly, Universal Pictures has decided that this sort of performance warrants another go, with the studio announcing that it has given the unnamed sequel a green light, the BBC reports. The movie, slated for 2018, will once again feature star Chris Pratt, Executive Producer Steven Spielberg, and writer/director Colin Trevorrow.

Word. Titanic and Avatar are the number 1 and 2 spots..are they godfather or citizen kane level flicks? No. Most movies that earn the most are crowd pleasing four quadrant movies

I think we are entering an era where most tentpole movies will do a billion,hell by January we will be hearing of a certain space opera passing this movie on the all time box office list :youngsabo:trust
Well damn?? Didn't know here was going to be in that too??

He is on a crazy run!

He really has surpassed other up and coming white actors like Chris Pine, Taylor K, and etc young America that had the opportunity but flopped!

He is the next Bruce Willis
glad murica finally have a go to action hero again, was looking real :what: seeing euros like Gerald butler fighting to save your country. But the next Bruce Willis? Pratt? :whoa:

Did you see it?

Nope, not yet. Like I said my interest is really low on this. I honestly feel the original Jurassic Park shouldn't have any sequels at all, or at worst just have one. It should've been one of those stand alone classics that you keep going back to...now it's just a played out formula imo.

I'm sure I will enjoy it as a summer popcorn flick. Just surprised it blew up like this...then again it's same thing that's happened to the Fast & Furious franchise (which I love), so there is precedent.
