Don't See Jurassic World

A 2-hour Mercedes commercial with no characters. The product placement conflicts with the storyline. The park can't figure out how to reduce costs, but every single park vehicle is a Mercedes (complete with sweeping shots of the grille emblem every time a benz is shown, which is about every 5 minutes). What does the average person drink while working on their motorcycle in a desolate forest? Why, an ice cold glass bottle of Coca-Cola, of course. There's actually a close-up shot of the guy drinking it with the label toward the camera. I guess they managed to cut the part where he said "ahhh" after taking a swig.

I've only been to the theater a handful of times in the last few years, and it's usually later in the evening. We went at 7:30 and I learned that apparently you're allowed to bring infant babies into a movie. I guess I assumed this wasn't allowed, or that people weren't inconsiderate enough to actually do it.

Gotta love complaints about product placement. It's been the norm since the early days of TV and Bond was a master of it in the 1960's.



Coke in Ghostbusters. Twinkies in Zombieland.

Audi in just about every movie the past decade.

Can't say I agree. There are plenty of major features that don't do this, and certainly not to the degree that it's obnoxious.

Yeah, you should probably just stick to foreign films if product placements and babies in the theater bother you.

I ******* loved the product placement in Repo Men, which were just big bottles or boxes with plain white labels that read Rum or Diapers, or whatever it was.

Saw it tonight. Meh. The 3D was good, but the movie was not.

I will say I would totes boan the hell out of Bryce Howard.





I mean, just in case that wasn't clear already.

like I was about to anyway...

Was invited to see this, but declined. Glad I did. Though I was hoping it turned out really good.

Visuals not that impressive, the hallmark 'scary and tense' scenes neither scary nor tense enough. Forget the insipid plot, unmemorable characters, weak script (not that that matters all that much in these movies), unmemorable characters (does

Worst in the series, IMO.

Yeah, this shouldn't even be a question. There's absolutely nothing good about the second one.

I was kind of interested in the Mercedes version of the X6 that Bryce was driving (the GLE?)

And if Claire would run and fight from dinosaurs without taking off her heels, she can keep em on while I'm boaning her too

No kidding. I was rooting for the dinosaur to kill all the humans in the second movie.

I would like to say, and i am guilty of this. (trying to though).. to stop watching movies.

Yes they are super entertaining, exciting, and emotional. All such things boosts our dopamine which feels great but only lasts for a short period of time with little to non self growth.

I recommend reading,blogging and discussing politics,philosophy,or technology.

So..

With all the money jurassic world got, which i thought was pretty awesome and lame, that it should fund to battle against major corporations that kill real animals?? HMM anyone?

Anyway..

Jurassic world was very..very..very guessable. Half the scenes i could tell what was gonna happen AND what the heck happend in the last scene with the Trex and the red flare?! Trex is not a dog! here boy, here go fetch! I dont think so....other than that graphics were awesome and the new dino was pretty badazz. yes, i like jazz.

Excellent post. Very thoughtful.
