Three-Way Catch-Up: #56 and #57

Work has been hectic. didn't realize I was missing so many posts. Sorry about that! Here's a quick catch up from the past TWO podcasts!

Reloading - Jurassic World - Still Miss Jeff Goldblum

Twenty or so years ago, I went into a movie theater for one of my first times. It may not have been THE first time, but it’s the first I remember. I went with my grandpa at the age of 3 or 4 and we sat to watch these big robot dinosaurs on screen come to life. We say the original Jurassic Park and I was blown away by it that, for years, I wanted to be a paleontologist. As I got older, I wanted to tell stories of that caliber or better. It’s twenty years later and we’re revisiting Isla Nublar in Jurassic World and… damn… What a ride.

Majestic Twelve - Looking at Films of 2015

We’ve done our “Best of 2014” lists. We’ve talk about the worst games, movies, and events of 2014. It’s been a lot of talk of 2014. But that’s all in the past and who likes living in the past?

BulletPoints - Trailers and Casting Calls Part One

It was either this or the alternative of discussing Naruto some more, but I don’t want to waste anyone’s time with that if I don’t have to (but I totally will if pushed to it). 

While I haven’t seen a new film recently (lack of funds mostly), I have been keeping an ear to the ground on casting decisions for various super hero films and watching the trailers to the big movies of 2015 we’ve all been waiting to see SOMETHING of. This might get long, but this will be kind of a “grab bag” BulletPoints of film topics related to all of these. If anything in particular grabs your attention, please let me know in the comments and I’ll maybe try to expand upon that a bit more in a future discussion. That said…
