“We’re putting the toothpaste back in the tube.” -Billy D’Elia
The boys give their immediate reactions to the Jurassic World: Rebirth trailer after watching it together and tear into the plot of the upcoming reimagining/reboot/sequel/money grab of the Jurassic Park franchise. They talk about their love for the original movie, how each sequel’s plot became exponentially more ridiculous, why do people keep returning to these islands, and weren’t there dinosaurs roaming around the earth after the last Jurassic World? Did they just ignore what happened?
Dan, Manny, & Billy also discuss other upcoming sequels of beloved nostalgic films like Gremlins 3, Goonies 2, & Gladiator 2. Tell us what you think about sequels and reboots, and if you think Hollywood needs to stop all the madness!
