Just Because You Can Do Something, Doesn’t Mean You Should.

Jeff Goldblum had one of the best lines in that classic dinosaur tale. Take a lesson from Jurassic Park as well as other things in this world that should have had a little extra thought behind them. Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. Take caution when deciding what is best. Think twice, do once. Have discernment, be wise.

Weird Al Yankovic: Jurassic Park

It seems appropriate for this parody/satire video from Weird Al Yankovic that is a tribute to MacArthur Park. Claymation adds something to it.

Jurassic World – A Good Summertime Flick

From Wikipedia: Set twenty-two years after the events of Jurassic Park, Jurassic World takes place on the same fictional island of Isla Nublar, where a fully-functioning dinosaur theme park has operated for ten years. The park plunges into chaos when a genetically-modified dinosaur, Indominus rex, breaks loose and runs rampant across the island.

I wasn’t sure what to think about this 4th movie but I enjoyed it. There was a lot to think about in this movie and it continues on the themes of the first movie. They do a great job of linking the past with the present with some differences. Jurassic World is everything the park would be in the future. It makes a commentary on the human condition where we have the need to be entertained in bigger, bolder ways.

Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are great in this movie along with the rest of the cast that includes Judy Greer, Vincent D’Onofrio and BD Wong. Jimmy Fallon makes a cameo too. Friends I say go see this if you were a fan of the original movie. Expect to be more terrified instead of grossed out. You will sort of know what is coming but there are still some surprises and lots of chaos at times.
