Two of my all time favorite movie franchises are set to make a welcome return.
Jurassic World: Official Trailer
The 4th in the series of “Jurassic” movies, named Jurassic World, is due to be released in June next year, some 21 years after the original Jurassic Park. Boy, how I enjoyed watching Jurassic Park with the grandkids, especially the part where the Tyrannosaurus Rex’s footsteps came thundering through the sub-woofer in my surround sound system. The look on the grandkids’ faces will never be forgotten.
This fourth installment in the Jurassic series has been plagued by disagreements and difficulties, taking more than a decade to eventually come to fruition. While no official plot has yet been released, the film is purported to feature a new park, Jurassic World, built on the remains of the original park on Isla Nublar. The movie stars Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jake Johnson, and Vincent D’Onofrio as the villain of the piece:
“Remember, if something chases you… RUN!”
Star Wars VII – The Force Awakens: Official Trailer
I love good sci-fi and have all six Star Wars movies on disc. I just hope this latest episode lives up to its predecessors. Would you believe it’s been 37 years since the first Star Wars movie graced the big screen – now that’s scary!
Leading lights Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, and Mark Hamill return to reprise their earlier roles, some 30 years on since Star Wars VI – Return of the Jedi in 1983. No official storyline has been released yet so I guess the trailer would be more appropriately described as a “teaser”.
Whatever, this is one fan who is excited at the prospect of another Star Wars movie:
“The force Jimbo, use the force!”
Boy oh boy oh boy. Totally cannot wait and hope they’re available on IMAX as well. Do miss the drive-ins, Mindblower!
