    How many folks are planning to see "Jurassic World"?

    I wasn't too jazzed about it at first, but the more I've seen of it trailer-wise, the more I'm prone to thinking I'll have my keister in a seat opening weekend. Hey, it's dinosaurs, Star Lord and a pretty hot-looking Bryce Dallas Howard. Can it possibly be ALL bad?
    sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

    I will probably see it, but from the trailer, the story looked like a rehash of itself, the 1990s Godzilla, and Aliens put together. Not that that would be bad, but not enough for me to want opening weekend.
    It's all good!

        I'm setting up Thursday night at a local theater with a friend from a geology museum at the university we work at. He's going to have fossils for people to see and I'm going to be waking people through a DNA extraction so they can see DNA themselves. We'll do that from 6 to 8:30 and then see the 9:00 show. I'm stoked! The reviews have been ok to good, so I'm expecting a good time.

          Seeing this on sunday here in Poland. I wish it wasnt a theme park, more of a lost world small crew etc. Also dont really like the fact they have made up some new dino. it kinda kills the realism for me. But saying that I cant wait to see it in 3D, the first one was jaw dropping for me.

            Looking forward to it. Although it looks like a re-make of Jaws 3-D, which itself was a remake of Revenge of the Creature.

                I remember having Jurrassic Park the breakfast cereal. I'll probably go see it after the hype dies down.

                  For sure. If they can somehow muster some of the awe and wonder of the first, it'll work for me. If it's just a CGI fest, I'll be disappointed.

                    Jurassic Park III was essentially a remake of Aliens, so I trust they will take a different route.

                    Anyway, I've been glued to my seat watching tonight's Syfy network marathon of all three JP movies, and they have been showing JP IV interviews, trailers, behind the scenes sneaks and all sorts of dino-goodies in all the commercial breaks. My appetite has been sufficiently whetted so, yes, I'll be there.

                          For a fourth installment, this film is getting very high scores on Rotten Tomatoes. Currently sitting at 73% favorable. It definitely sounds like they have retooled their thinking on how to approach this latest installment. I wouldn't mind some dino-dining this weekend.

                            We just returned and the theatre was packed. Everyone applauded at the end. I won't spoil anything here. But it is its own thing with a few subtle call backs to the original.
