JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM FINAL TRAILER BREAKDOWN

Image
The final trailer for "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" is out and this trailer not only shows off some spectacular shots and practical effects, however, provides a deeper dive into the story of the film, and the characters of the film, all of which I will discuss. To start off, the first part of the film is being sold as a rescue operation, Jurassic Park 2 style. In this case, Owen (Chris Pratt), has to save Blue, the Raptor from the island which has a volcano about to erupt. With this "Lost World" type plot, the film seems it might divert from that in the way that it has formed a relationship between a human and dinosaur. However, like The Lost World, there is an organization involved with this rescue operation. This organization seems to be the one that wanted to militarize dinosaurs in Jurassic World. In this film, they appear to have Doctor Wu (BD Wong) working with them, as he was sort of developing new code for them in the last film. With the help ...

INFINITY WAR- BEHIND THE SCENES BREAKDOWN

Image
Hey everyone, a new clip from Avengers Infinity War was dropped, and this time we get a look at the behind the scenes of the film which provides some new footage, as well as some insight on the film, and the hype leading to this film. So let's get on with the breakdown. Opening up this video is a scene of the Guardians first meeting Thor, while they bring him into the Milano. What seems to be happening is that the Guardians most likely heard that Thanos is out on his quest for the Infinity Stones, and they find the remains of where he was on the Asgardian ship, where Thor got his ass handed to Thanos, and was thrown into space. I like how in this scene, Gamora, and Drax seems like they both want to hook up with Thor. In the shot we see that Groot is still on his video games, not caring, all the while Mantis is going to awake Thor with her powers. From this scene we know that Thor goes with Groot and Rocket to get a new weapon, while the other Guardians check on the Collect...
