Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4881806/ It was okay but not great. Some parts of it felt recycled. A couple of the supporting characters were very poorly written and very annoying. The trailers themselves were also a bit misleading. Personally, I think they should had stopped after the 2nd film, the last time a Jurassic Park franchise film was actually directed by Steven Spielberg. But you know Hollywood: as long as people will pay to see it, they will keep cranking them out no matter how banale and absurd and repetitive each new entry becomes. So of course there will be a sequel. It's already has a release date scheduled: June 11th, 2021. Both Pratt and Howard will reprise their roles. 2.5/5

We re-watched Salt for the 3rd time the other day. So is Salt a Russian sleeper agent or not? You have all those flashback scenes showing kids being trained to become sleeper agents and the scene where the Russian guy told Salt, when she was still a kid right before she was put into an American foster home: this is the last time you will see me. When you grow up you will go to Princeton and work for the CIA. So she grew up, got a job as an agent at the CIA, and had a change of heart? She faked the assassination of the Russian President and she killed all the other Russian sleeper agents on the docked ship, after they murdered her husband in front of her by drowning him. I don't think her husband dying is what turned her to become good because the fake assassination of the Russian President was before her husband dying. Then after that she tried to save the U.S. President and she stopped her boss at the CIA, who was also another Russian sleeper agent, from launching nuclear missiles. I also don't think she was turned by the CIA as an agent and was a double agent because the way the CIA was chasing her, they were truly convinced she was a Russian agent who infiltrate the CIA and they didn't know she was actually one of the good guys. I guess what I am asking is when did she become a good guy or has she always been a good guy even when she was being trained as a Russian sleeper agent?

The Rant Thread
Almost every day including a Saturday and a Sunday for 2 weeks now, I get a call between 5 pm to 7 pm from a phone # that has the same area code as my phone # and the same first 2 numbers of the exchange number as the one in my phone #. I know these annoying do no good scamming lying robocallers and telemarketers have technology that can make any number show up on your caller ID, including your own phone # which they have done so many times before, in the hope that someone sees their own phone # or a phone # similar to their own on the caller ID, they will answer without thinking. I don't answer any phone calls that do not show up on my caller ID as a name or business that's already saved in my contact list. If they have something really important and legitimate to talk to me about, they will either leave a voice mail and call back or not leave a voice mail but call back again and next time, leave a voice mail. The # is a different # each time and I have blocked it each time after first doing a GOOGLE search or BING search on it to see if anyone has received a call from the same # and then reported it online on many available websites to identify it as a telemarketer or as a legitimate business.

And The Expanse which stupid SyFy cancelled while it's currently still broadcasting brand new episodes every Wednesday night in the middle of the 3rd season. Thank Amazon for picking it up for a 4th season.

Movies they never made a sequel to but should have or do have a sequel in the works but it's taking a long time.
I wasn't aware that King wrote a sequel to The Shining and a movie is being made of it. But it's not Kubrick and it doesn't stars Jack Nicholson so it will never live up to the prequel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Sleep_(novel) ALSO: Battle: Los Angeles (2011) I Love this movie and would like to know more about why the aliens came to Earth and what are they here for. How come a sequel was never made? This movie wasn't that bad. and I Am Number Four (2011) They were going to make a sequel based on the follow up novel The Power Of Six and then they didn't. I guess the movie making $150 million worldwide against a budget of $50 million doesn't qualify it as a money maker once you figure in marketing cost.

The party is over! Everyone go home! Thank the FCC and Obama!
Net Neutrality ends today. The FCC chairman Ajit Pai is a traitor who sold himself to the telecommunication companies like AT&T and Time Warner Cable. Before becoming FCC chairman, he was one of the staunchiest supporters of Net Neutrality. Then as soon as he became FCC chairman, he repealed Net Neutrality while insisting it will stimulate a freer open internet and the ISP will not charge the public to use faster lanes versus slower lanes. Someone needs to take a good look at the FCC chairman's bank accounts and see how much $ has been deposited into them by ISP using shell companies as fronts. http://www.wtae.com/article/the-end-of-net-neutrality-is-here-heres-what-it-means-for-you/21252309 http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-net-neutrality-end-20180610-story.html This means if you use NetFlix, your ISP may want to charge you extra $ to stream from NetFlix at your fastest available speed, extra $ on top of what you already are paying monthly for your internet service. Here's what it means:

I had high hopes for Ocean's 8 but it turned out it's another let's get a bunch of women together so we can prop up women's empowerment [and the new #MeToo movement] like the Ghostbusters reboot did. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5164214/reviews So I'll wait for the DVD. Just because it made $41 or so millions at the box office and it's the top film of the weekend, it doesn't mean it's any good. By next weekend it will drop by at least 50% especially with Incredibles 2 hitting the theaters next Friday, these women won't have a chance. CAN'T ANYONE make a movie nowadays without infusing their own Political Agenda, Political Views, Political Correctness, etc etc into the movie? Same thing happened with Star Wars Episode 8 The Last Jedi. That's why the director Rian Johnson is the most hated person right now in the Star Wars universe when he chose to make the film about his Political views and agenda and he has just been given the reign to his own 3 films Star Wars Trilogy that has nothing to do with the Original trilogy. The Star Wars fans are so mad at Disney and Johnson and Lucasfilm over The Last Jedi, that's why SOLO is flopping. They chose to boycott SOLO.

Dog 0 Crocodile 1
Warning: the following website contains video of dog becoming crocodile's dinner. http://www.fox8live.com/story/38363016/crocodile-eats-dog-that-tormented-it-for-years It's the owner's fault. He allowed his dog to torment that poor crocodile for a decade or so. What does he think it's not going to happen sooner or later? The crocodile did what it's natural instict told it to do: protect itself, fight back, and get dinner at the same time. The owner(s) should be jailed for animal cruelty. In one of the many online reports about this, the owner was even quoted as saying: So he knows it's dangerous for humans (who are bigger than a dog) to go down there near the water where the crocodile lives, yet he allows his dog to go down there? Then he also said: Sounds to me he is trying to shift the blame of his poor dog's demise on his dog! What a dumb butt!

A Star Is Born (2018) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1517451/ Well, this looks so much better than the 1976 Barbara Streisand version which was the second remake of the original 1937 film. This was originally a project in 2011 by director Clint Eastwood with Beyonce in the lead female role but she got pregnant so Eastwood dropped out in 2015 when the movie languished in development hell. Lady Gaga replaced Beyonce which is definitely a good thing. At one time Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp were in talks to take the lead male role which is not a good thing, thank God they didn't get cast. May be an academy awards nominee comes next February?

Journey's End (2017) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3780500/ A harrowing realistic portrayal of a British infantry company in the trenches on the front line in Northern France during 1918: the final year of World War 1. Each infantry company is required to spend 6 days each month on the front line before being rotated out. This is the story of one British infantry company during those 6 days. This film is also the 4th film adaptation of a 1928 play: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey's_End The tension and suspense was so thick, I could feel butterflies in my stomach as if I myself was really in the trenches with those poor men, most of them just boys, waiting to go over the top to run across the 60 yards or so of open space between the British and German trenches, with most of it completely zeroed in by dozens of German machine guns. Not only there aren't enough movies about World War 1, there are even less good movies about World War 1. This is one of the few good ones I've seen. 5/5

I agree about Spider Man. Plus the reboots weren't even any good.

Considering how many crappy movies is Hollywood either rebooting or remaking or giving unnecessary sequels to that only end up becoming box office flops, there has been some movies or movies series that should have had a sequel but there hasn't been any especially considering that most of the following movies did make money. True Lies - a sequel has been rumoured but still not confirmed Salt Avatar series - several sequels are in the works but it's taking a long time, according to IMDB the first of 4 Avatar sequels won't be until 2020 which means it will be 11 years since the first film came out. Wanted Inception District 9 Forrest Gump Kill Bill series Serenity Mr. And Mrs. Smith Leon The Professional with Mathilda as the trained killer The Simpsons Movie (it earned over $527 millions!!) Tron series (I liked Tron: Legacy. I may be the only one who did) National Treasure series The Fifth Element Bad Boys series: there is finally a #3 coming out in 2020, I just looked it up. Hellboy series The Lone Ranger Terminator series: there is a sequel in the works, by James Cameron, with Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger returning!! It will be a direct sequel to 1991's Terminator 2 and it will ignore the other 3 Terminator sequels that were released after Terminator 2. Thank God!! It will also be the first of 3 Terminator films by James Cameron. What took you so long to wake up, Jim? You should had done this 25 years ago and saved us all the pain and suffering of having to sit through Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Terminator Salvation and Terminator Genisys!!

I looked it up. The age limit for military flyers in the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Air Force, regardless whether they are piloting a jet fighter or a cargo plane full of rubber dog poop out of Hong Kong is in the mid 30's.

Just finished the entire TV mini-series Picnic At Hanging Rock (2018) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6038954/ Beautiful!! Stunning!! Breathtaking!! Mysterious!! Suspenseful!! Thrilling!! 10/10 !! Don't mind the idiots who are giving this a bad review on IMDB and other websites saying they gave up after the 1st or 2nd episode because it was boring to them or they couldn't get into it or that they didn't understand it. Their not liking it is their own fault for not sticking with it until the end. The only one complaint I have is if you Google Search for Picnic At Hanging Rock, you will find many articles online identifying it as Amazon or Amazon's Picnic At Hanging Rock. It's NOT Amazon's!! This series, just like the 1967 book it's based on and the 1975 film before it, is Australian, made by FoxTel and Screen Victoria and Film Australia in cooperation with the Australian Government and the owners of Hanging Rock, filmed on location at the real Hanging Rock. Quite a majority of the actresses and actors in it are Australian born, many of them either still residents there or living abroad. Amazon is only responsible for streaming it online to make it available to the U.S. market ONLY. The series was also acquired by the BBC for broadcast in the United Kingdom and by Canal+ for broadcast in France but you don't find GOOGLE search results calling it BBC's or Canal's show. Give the CORRECT credit where credit is due. NOT EVERYTHING is OWNED, MADE, CREATED, by freaking Amazon!!
