Speaker 1 (00:00):
Great the flick with Ben Good morning, Benoche, how are you?
Good morning? I wasn't I wasn't caught by a velociraptor.
What's caught by some pretty insane traffic out there?
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Yeah, that's pretty pretty hectic. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Now when you think of when you think of the
original Jurassic Park movie in nineteen ninety three by Steven Spielberg,
I bet you can easily bring to mind so many
iconic moments, absolutely no doubt.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Welcome Jurassic Part Yeah. That many movies. I've only seen
the one.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Just so the first, just the first, Well, I think
I think anybody will remember. You know, you've got You've
got the great, the late great Richard Attenborough. You know,
no bed, the you know, life finds away. The Tyrannosaurus
Rex eating that bloke while he was sitting on the toilet,
(00:57):
human human with his his eggs or whatever they were
DNA hidden in the shaving foam can. Then and then
like he was scrabbling around in the mud, and the
dinosaur with the frill neck lizards spats there's acid in
his face. So many iconic moments, But I would challenge
(01:18):
anybody to come up with a single thing that they
can remember from the five films that came afterwards.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
No mom out because I haven't seen the other night.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that's right. So the most recently there's
been three Jurassic World movies starring Chris Pratt, yea, Chris
Pratt and Bryce Dallis Howard, and they had not been
particularly good, but they've made a ton of money at
the box office, Like we're talking a billion dollars each.
They're super, super successful. The franchise in total has made
(01:49):
you know, well upwards of ten billion dollars across the
six films, and so no surprise, they wanted to make
another one. This one, Jurassic World Rebirth, is a standalone sequel,
so technically it's part of the same universe as the
previous three Jurassic World movies. It happens five years after
the events of Jurassic World Dominion, but there's nothing else
(02:12):
in common. There are no characters in common, none of
the actors. Zis the dinosaurs, the dinosaur characters, there's some
of those that maybe have returned, of course, the t Rex.
And it's directed by Gareth Edwards, who, for people who
are familiar with his work, gave us a Rogue One,
which is, you know, one of the best Star Wars
movies ever. He gave us the creator and he also
(02:35):
did a Godzilla movie in I think twenty fourteen something
like that, And so he's got he's got a very
interesting aesthetic, this British filmmaker, and the film looks amazing.
He shot it on thirty five millimeter film using the
same lenses that Steven Spielberg did in the nineteen ninety
three film, So you've got it looks like a classic
(02:55):
kind of nineties action movie, which is nice that I
like that bit of it. And you've got Scarlett Johanson,
who's obviously a megastar, has this covert operative who along
with Mahashala Ali, two time Oscar winner, are hired by
this big farmer company to go to this deserted island
(03:17):
that used to be a research facility and they need
to take DNA samples from the largest dinosaurs that have
ever lived because that might hold the secret to curing
incurable diseases. Right, so, you know, pretty noble pursuit. They've
got to get a DNA from a mosasaur, which is
an aquatic dinosaur that was you know, like weigh twenty tons,
a titanosaur, which is a huge like a Brontosaurus style
(03:40):
dinosaur that was one of the largest things that've ever
worked walked the earth. And a quetzal coatless, which is
pretty hard to say, a big like flying dinosaur that
had a wingspan as big as a bus. So these
are all pretty challenging things to do. And if that
wasn't hard enough, there's also a civilian family that were
on randomly on a trip through dinosaur infested waters and
(04:02):
get marooned on this island as well, so the soldiers
have to kind of try and protect them as well.
And then because this is a research facility, they've got
genetically engineered dinosaurs and right, and that's and that's that's
kind of a weird thing, right, Like the movie kind
of assumes that the audiences are so bored of dinosaurs
(04:23):
that we need we need these freak mutant dinosaurs to
kind of ramp up the excitement. And you know, so
that's it's like, you know, it jumped over the shark,
which is a prehistoric animis and but I guess the
thing is, because we everyone loves dinosaurs, it's kind of
not really okay to kill dinosaurs anymore. Maybe once upon
(04:45):
a time, but even a velociraptor or a t rex. Like,
if you have got military guys with you know, M sixties,
having them shoot dinosaurs is just not a good vibe.
But when you have genetically engineered freaks, you don't feel
any sympathy towards them, So you can kill those dinosaurs, okay,
And so you know, it's kind of one of those
those decisions the studios made to kind of make it
(05:05):
a bit more exciting. Look, I mentioned that none of
the other previous five Jurassic Park movies had anything memorable
in them. This is now the next one that doesn't
have anything memorable in it. I could not, I could
not honestly quote one line of dialogue to you. There's
a lot you do, you think, no, Like, it's when
(05:30):
when they when?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
When they? When they?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
When they one of the one of the civilians sees
one of these mutant dinosaurs. Like the actual line of
dialogue is they're mutant as.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Really, that's it. Yeah, you'll take them out to like
there from the stereod Olympics.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
So the big question is how many no dinosaurs were
hurt in the making of this movie.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Are you giving.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
It two and a half. It's a pretty it's pretty mindless.
It's a pretty mindless blockbuster. But you know, like this
will still make a ton of money because people love dinosaurs,
and the dinosaurs they're probably more believable than the humans
in the film.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
So scarlettil Scarlett still get the big pay day. Thank yeah,
absolutely thanks, thank Talking Movies. So when are we going
Great the flick with Ben Good morning, Benoche, how are you?
