What’s Wrong with Jurassic World?

All I know is that the sequel had better be called The Lost Park: Jurassic World.

At least Batman and Superman didn’t show up in a diner this time around. This was a good one by the How It Should Have Ended peeps, pretty darn funny. I can’t be the only one who’d watch a movie set at a functioning dinosaur park, am I? Why does something always have to go wrong?

ALL the Jurassic Park Parodies!

Jurassic World opens this weekend, and I plan on seeing it eventually. I’m just not as jazzed for this film as I am for, say, Ant-Man. But perhaps like the glorious Mad Max: Fury Road, word of mouth will drill itself into my brain and I’ll go check it out. Until then, we’re all going to have to make due with Internet parodies of all the older movies. Both Cinema Sins and Honest Trailers dug back into the classics and worked their particular brands of hilarity.

And here they are.

What’s that, Screen Junkies? You weren’t able to get to Jurassic Park 3 on time? For shame! We’ll have to finish up with How Jurassic Park Should Have Ended!

And that’s Friday, everybody! Peace out!

Nah, I may say more stuff later. Did you hear that Baron Mordo has been cast in Doctor Strange? That’s pretty neat.

The Trailer Train Continues with Jurassic World

Yet another movie trailer has fallen in our laps today, this time for Jurassic World. I think it’s because all these big summer movies want to have trailers in front of Avengers: Age of Ultron in less than two weeks. Makes sense, but man, talk about losing hype. I’m all trailered out.

The movie looks fine. I don’t have particularly high hopes, and I still think Chris Pratt looks kind of silly, but whatever. He’s right: dinosaurs are awesome, and this is the premiere dinosaur franchise. How else are we going to get dinosaur movies?

No, seriously, why are there no other dinosaur movies? What about Dino-Riders? Why is that not a thing yet?!

I Have Discovered BigHead Parodies, and now My Weekend Will Never Be the Same

Random Internet surfing led me to BigHead movie parodies, by Lowcarbcomedy. They take classic movie scenes and superimpose large heads on top of the characters with new jokes and stuff. They’re pretty darn funny. Check out their new one from Jurassic Park!

It’s just weird and funny, and totally Internet. Good work, Lowcarbcomedy, you’ve won the Internet for today. They’ve got a couple more on their page. Now get back to work and make even more! And don’t get a big head about this praise.

So Chris Pratt is Definitely Leading an Army of Raptors

My favorite Super Bowl commercial this year was the new trailer for Jurassic World, which confirms that Chris Pratt will indeed be some kind of Raptor King.

This trailer is a fair bit cooler than the first trailer. Solid Super Bowl advertisement. But where was the Super Bowl ad for Ant-Man?!
