Today's Fanboy Delusion

Today I'd rather be...

... gobbling Chris Pratt right up.

In case you're a deranged maniac who hasn't bothered watching the commercial for Jurassic World that aired during the Super Bowl last night, there that is. There were several shots in it that weren't in the first trailer we saw, but the spot was only a minute long (costing twelve hundred billion dollars, no doubt) so for me to make a list of My Five Favorite Shots from it kinda works out to Here's Every Shot In It, I'll admit... but still, I can't resist - here are My Five Favorite Shots In The New Jurassic World Commercial.

1. Chris Pratt taming Velociraptors is cool. 

Chris Pratt taming Velociraptors in those tight pants is cooler.

2. One of my favorite passages in Michael Crichton's book way back in the day (I haven't read it since 1993 probably) was the scene on the rafts down the river, which still hasn't made it into any of the movies - this gives me hope! Plus it's just damn pretty...

... and reminiscent of the world-setting shot in Spielberg's first film. Remember how all of our jaws hung open looking at that? And speaking of call-backs...

3. ... I love this shout-out to the shot in the first film of the Velociraptor watching poor hot Muldoon (and his short-shorts) getting chomped on.

Clever girl!

4. Any of the...

... shots of the...

... new dino wreaking his havoc! 
Ahhh!!!

5. And of course the big ol' money-shot, the one that no doubt made everybody in the room at the Super Bowl parties go "Gah-damn!" Do you think that's their mother? Jinkies! June 12th can't get here quick enough, you guys.

One of my favorite scenes, if not my all time favorite scene in "Jurassic Park" is when Lex and Tim get attacked in the car. So that final shot at the end of the "Jurassic World" trailer with the kids getting attacked in the not-so-protective glass bubble thing got me amped up most of all. Ahhhhh, I can't fucking wait for this movie!!!!!!!!

Ewww, the confirmed racist jew directing the uberhyped goofball, who has collaborated on that vile and vicious torture is fabulous flick directed by another ejaculate rag discarded by the insufferable I am the king of the world egomaniac!
is there any news that animatronic dinos fell on any of them during the shoot by any grand chance to put them out of misery? ....what? this is why I hate CGI's!! :-p
Ugh!
