Dinosaur fever

Who has big plans to see Jurassic World when it opens tomorrow night? I’m seeing it with friends next weekend — I can’t wait! There are so many things to look forward to about the film:

1) Chris Pratt. I mean, if you have to replace Sam Neill, you might as well do it with someone as charming, funny, and generally badass as him.

2) The Raptors. One of my favorite movie scenes of all time is when Robert Muldoon (played by the great Bob Peck) is on the hunt for the pair of quick-witted dinos that escaped their cage. When they out-smart him, he has one response: “Clever girl.” Watch the scene here. Now, get excited for more raptor scenes in Jurassic World.

3. The music. If you tell me you don’t get chills when you watch the trailer to Jurassic World, I won’t believe you. John Williams is a genius. I said it in the report I did on him in my 9th grade English class about the influence of music on story-telling and I’ll say it again. The man is a genius. For this film, Michael Giacchino takes the reins, but pays careful tribute to the original work of JW.

4. The same T. Rex is back.

Are you planning to watch?
