Plenty if they are good. There is a hard limit on how many times they can be made/moved and controlled only to prove that doesn't work. That being the core of everyone one of them expect the third one (which was arguably the worst) screams fear of trying something different vs what's already made a couple million bucks that is killing me with Hollywood lately. I'm not sure I care where to go from here with this franchise (agree it needs a retirement), I don't agree with a reboot (the movies based on books were good enough) and not sure how to do a dinosaur movie without the same basic premise of how they brought them back to life in this franchise via genetics and cloning. No time machines or dinos from space please, that Syfy Channel B-Movie plot all day, not summer blockbuster. Spoiler But don't make another park in Italy thinking that will go any different plus get my hopes up all humans get eaten only to starve because Italy park folks equally stupidly made giant locusts. I wanted to see everyone die via dinosaurs or insinuate it was inevitable at least, F this feel good co-existing BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even trying to do this with animatronics, that far removed from the original. Done entirely with photoshop 😒 Edit: Think that baby triceratops might of been as a "homage" that's it I don't know why anyone would waste money on this garbage. I mean there is a scene in the trailer where a ****ing dinosaur catches up to an airplane and starts ripping it apart. So now dinosaurs can fly hundreds of miles per hour lol. That movie just looks oh so terrible. This reaction to the trailer sums it up perfectly. On the note of the special effects, I recently came across this video about how great the effects in JP1 were and why they still hold up today compared to the crap CGI that is in the newer ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbear Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Watched Cargo on Netflix. It was a surprisingly well done zombie movie. While the budget was probably low to make, the writing and story were very well done. My wife, older son and I enjoyed it which says a lot because 2 of us are not typical zombie movie/show fans.

purbeast Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) Watched Hustle last night. Really good movie. So many cameo's. Only one that kind of bothered me was that Kenny Smith didn't play Kenny Smith. I thought that was a bit odd. Might as well have just gotten a real actor, although he did pretty good.

I guess it depends. If the dinosaur is named Godzilla, you can make a gazillion of them 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I’m here for as many monster movies as they want to make, as long as the budget is outrageous and the special effects consume 90% of it. It could just be Godzilla waking up angry on a beach upon realizing some tourists have painted his claws hot pink, then eating a succession of cruise ships in response to this outrage. I’d watch it. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Saw Lightyear. Gets a solid B. A good story about Buzz Lightyear the man , the toy was based on. Right wingers upset because they used Chris Evans and not Tim Allen. Tim voiced the toy, Chris the man. It’s that simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) Might be rom com but Bullock/Tatum movie The Lost City is legitimately funny in a lot of places.

Die Hard Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Top Gun: Maverick. Totally worth seeing in theatres. Not necessary to see the original…. but I do think it adds something to the movie experience. Most of the action is in the last 30 minutes. And holy cow, the difference in health between Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That he actually cannot speak anymore or even eat (he'd been reduced to feeding tubes). 😔 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps something changed in his health/condition between his documentary and the filming of Top Gun? He just had to use his device - which is visible and used in the movie - in order to do so. And I had a patient of mine say repeat your thoughts too. Now I can’t recall specifically, but I thought almost all of Val’s dialogue was typed out on his computer. He may have said 1 sentence verbally before resorting to typing. To the best of my recollection anyways. Edited June 25, 2022 by Die Hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 He had 1 spoken line I think at the end of that scene. https://variety.com/2022/film/news/val-kilmer-top-gun-maverick-voice-artificial-intelligence-1235281512/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
