Since its initial release last month, director Colin Treverrow’s Jurassic World has been defying every expectation as it broke one box office record after another. And now the fourth movie in the Jurassic Park franchise has claimed its biggest accolade yet, as this past week’s haul brought its global tally up to $1,522 billion, which is enough to claim the …
Well, clearly EVERYBODY went to see Jurassic World this weekend past. And I was one of them, checking it out for the second time on IMAX and enjoying it even more than the first time as a great big thrill ride. Similarly, Nick also thought that the flick had its problems with undeveloped characters and few script issues, but overall …

That’s classified as “bad news” because it seems (and this is the good news part) that he’s done a pretty good job with Jurassic World. The much anticipated sequel …
Is it wise to go bigger and better with a winning idea? When said idea involves genetically re-engineering dinosaurs to be more brutal, intelligent and kickass, then I say damn the consequences and hells yes!
