The Wildlass Stagement Saturday Morning with Jack Name on News TALKSB.
But honestly, with that, it could be Saturday night at
any one of my about eight student flats. That's wonderful
(00:40):
by Oasis an absolute classic of course, and Oasis have
kicked off their hotly anticipated reunion tour in Cardiff this morning,
so Liam and Nol have been back on stage together
for the first time since two thousand and nine. Reports
from this show suggest that they managed to get through
their first show, but they weren't fisticuffs on stage, which
(01:02):
is good compared to some of their previous shows. When
tickets first went on Zaiale in the UK, the were
fourteen million people in the digital queue for just one
and a half million tickets to Oasis. The tour has
forty one dates in total and the Gallagher brothers are
going to be in Australia come November. Hey, thank you
for your messages this morning on the Texas Morning Jack.
(01:23):
Amazing that you are enjoying Costa Eco. What are the
animals have you seen? Actually? So as well as the
toucan that I was mentioning we have had a lot
of luck. I dragged the family into the middle of
the country so that we could go on a sloth
watching tour, which was an experience, and we saw I know,
a half dozen or so sloths, which would seem pretty
(01:45):
pretty good. The thing about flos, though, is that the
tour guides usually know where they are because being sloths,
they don't exactly move around a whole lot, so that
was good.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Though.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
We managed to enjoy what is apparently a rear site,
which was a sloth coming down tree, so that was good.
We've seen an anteacher in the wild, lots of iguanas, monkeys,
those kinds of things, two cans, all sorts of parrots.
It's you know, when it comes to biodiversity. I think
one of the world's absolute hot spots. So very lucky
(02:15):
to be here. I'll get to more of your feedback
very shortly right now that it's trying to get your
film picks for this week. Francesca Rudkin, our movie reviewer,
is here more dinner.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I'm very jealous that you've got to see a sloth,
although I am wondering how much sort of time do
you give to watching sloths.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
So we did a two hour tour and it was
I'll be honest with you, it was not what I
described as a relaxing endeavor. Only because no, no, only
because I took the four month old baby in the
front pack and at the very start of the tour,
our tour guide said to us in sort of grave
and serious tones, He's like, the worst thing you can
(02:53):
do is make a lot of noise. Whatever you guys
do for the next two hours, don't make any noise.
And so the whole time I was walking through the
jungle thinging like, please don't cry now, please don't cry now.
And there's here. He did an amazing job. So I
mean one on the front of me.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
It's it's a it's a learning journey. It is it is. No,
it was wonderful.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Okay, So we've got two films this morning. Let's begin
with one showing in cinemas at the moment, and really
one you probably want to see in the cinema rather
than at home. This is Jurassic World.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Rebirth Doctor Henry Wilmis. This is Zora Bennett, our mission specialists. Sorry,
what mission we got towards Barbados avoid government patrol.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
But there aren't that many anymore. No one's dumb enough
to go where we're gone. Scarlett Johanson starring as Zora
Bennett in the latest Jurassic World offering.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Number seven in the Jurassic Pack franchise. It's set five
years after Jurassic World Dominion. Each follows a small team
on a top secret mission to a Caribbean island that
hows to research facility for in gen By this stage,
you know, people are pretty over the dinosaurs. We've all
(04:21):
moved on. They only can live now in a very
specific area due to climate requirements, and that is pretty
much in this sort of area on the equator, and
humans aren't allowed to go there. So everyone's gone, Okay,
you know they exist, but stay away, and especially stay
away from this island because they focused on mutating dinosaurs.
(04:45):
One of the themes here in this film is that
you know, if you want to genetically modifying nature, you'd
better be prepared for the consequences. I will watch Scarlette
to Hanson and Anything. I will also watch a cost
herschelar Ali in Anything. They're also joined by Jonathan Bailey,
who's fabulous. He was in Bridgeton. He's great as well.
(05:06):
We've got a really good cast together. They're sort of
calling it a semi reboot Jack by introducing this kind
of new cast of characters, and this is a new
island that we visit. Yet it does feel like it's
a bit of a tribute to the original film. And
I'm very, very fond of the original film. It's probably
the one I remember the best. There is a reference
(05:26):
to Alan Grant played by Sam Neil. There's similar scenes
like there's a beautiful there's a scene in a valley
filled with dinosaurs where everybody has that moment of awe
when they see them in nature. Unusual camera angles, though
it didn't quite emotionally hit that. They also use the
same tactics of you know, you'll have a character facing
(05:47):
the camera, dinosaurs creeping up behind them, something chaotic happens,
we watch their facial expressions and then later but they
are all these sort of little gimmicks throughout that we've
seen before with these films, and then of course they're
trying to outwit and survive the man eating dinosaurs. So
for a sort of a semi reboot in a way,
(06:09):
it felt to me that It was really sort of
HARKing back to the original the Jurassic Pack and what
we loved about it. The story is very simple. A
team illegally goes to an island to get three things
they need DNA from a dinosaur on land, in water,
and in the air, and then leave again. So really simple.
Not a huge amount here. I don't think they made
(06:29):
the most of the mutated dinosaurs. It was kind of like, ah,
there's are t rex that looks like predator, but that
didn't really go anywhere. And along the way they pick
up a family that's shipwrecked who do not want to
be on this island, who also have to try and survive,
but they didn't really look they added a family dynamic
to the film, but I don't really know why they
were there, Like, they didn't really add a huge amount
(06:49):
to the story either. Got to see it on the
big screen. Good fun holiday entertainment. I'll always go and
see Jurassic Pack film. I'm quite fond of this franchise.
I was, but I'm easily scared, so I was on
the edge of my seat a bit. Yeah. Yeah it's good,
not yea, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
That's fair cool, good, not great, but still if you
You know, we all like seeing a person get eaten
by a dinosaur once in a while, So that sounds
like a bit of fun. Jurassic World Rebirth is showing
in cinemas. Next up, they have listened to the Great
Lilian Hall.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
I lived my entire life in a place that creates illusions,
Lillian Fast.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Fast, Let's find our places. Formation looks beautiful, nisintpe ce Lillian.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Because I'm afraid of it. Afraid of I'm so sorry,
I'll get it.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Okay, okay, this is well for something completely different, tell
us about the Great Lilian Hall.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
So this is a film written by the niece of
a stage actress, although it's not actually based on her aunt,
but she's kind of taken aspects of her life and
turned it into this original story of a Broadway actress,
a legend who gets diagnosed with demitra Warra, who seemed
to perform Chekhov's The Cheery Orchard. This is is kind
of a film about acceptance. You know, Lillian has had
(08:11):
symptoms for two years of dementia, but finally gets the
point where she's really struggling to remember her lines and
she realizes that her life's about to change, and it's
that moment of acceptance of how do you let go
of the film that's most important to you in your life,
that you've dedicated your life to and in this case
it's the theater, and how do you accept what's going
to happen to you and share it with your family
and things. Jessica Lang stars and this she is absolutely fabulous.
(08:33):
Apparently Meryl Street was originally supposed to play this role,
but I think that Jessica Lang brings a vanity and
I mean that in a complimentary way to the role
and nails it and it's worth seeing for her. P S.
Brosnan also stars. Kathy Bates also stars. They are fabulous.
This was originally an HBO film in the US, but
I'm really pleased to see that cinemas are playing it
(08:55):
here and Jessica Lang is worth checking out.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Great. Okay, cool, that's the great. Lillian Hall Frantisca's first
film is Jurassic World Rebirth. Both are showing in cinemas
at the moment, and both will of course on the
news talks. He'd be website in a couple of minutes.
We're going to tell you about a competition with a difference,
and it involves chocolate mouse.
