EVENING NIGHTCAP: Trailer For Jurasic Park World Redux Rebirth. Breakfast Club Turns 40. Part 2 Of TayTay Dancing At The Grammys.

 

 

► Jurassic Park: World Rebirth dropped the trailer for umpteenth sequel to the franchise. The movie starts Jonathan Bailey, ScarJo, and Mahhershala Ali.  The plot is about dinos, someone being chased, our planet being inhospitable, big pharma, bla, bla, bla.  ScarJo plays a quasi military operations specialist. From the looks of the trailer, she does her best to be some badass Sara Conner (from Terminator) meets GI Jane.  Cast members from previous movies are not in it. Okay, maybe one cast member from the 1st Jurassic movie is making a cameo. It will be the *HBIC velociraptor. She was forced to appear in this mess because of contractual obligations. I hope she was able to negotiate for organic, free range goat meat and a larger cage as part of her pay package. The movie opens July 2.  Read More 

*HBIC = head bitch in charge

Comment:  I'm busy on July 2nd and if I'm not, then I will find something to do. I refuse to park my ass in a smelly theater and get ripped off paying $20 movie ticket, $12 tub of popcorn, and $7 for a box of Raisinettes. Besides, the movie will be streamed online a few weeks later. I'll wait. Then I can park my ass on the couch with my dog and watch it as background noise while I take a nap.

 

► The late director John Hughes' teen angst movie, The Breakfast Club, turns 40 on February 7. A lot of people think the movie came out in 1984, but it was actually released in 1985. Maybe the confusion is due to losing track of time at detention in a classroom that reeked of sloppy joes, jock straps, and Loves Baby Soft cologne. The movie was an ensemble cast of 1980's "IT" actors. Since the movie came out, most of the cast has had mixed career relevancy post 1980s fame. Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez, Judd Nelson, Michael Anthony Hall, and Ally Sheedy can now start a new club call, "The Retirees Breakfast Club".  Read More

Comment: Of all the John Hughes movies, this one seems to have aged the best given what's acceptable by today's screwed up society.  If you think about it, there's no way Sixteen Candles could be made today, or Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Home Alone, Uncle Buck, or Weird Science.  Today's pearl clutching wankers would have a fit at the plot and humor of his movies. If Home Alone were made today, I envision the evangelical right wingers having a tantrum of biblical portions over little Kevin McAllister being left behind while his family jets off to Paris. They would be on the phone with CPS demanding that John Hughes be fired and jailed for creating a movie that glorifies child abandonment, breaking & entry, and making a mockery of Christmas in the church scene when Kevin talks to his elderly neighbor instead of listening to the choir. People need to get a life, a sense of humor, or piss off.

► If you need a laugh today (I know I did), here's Tay Tay dancing to Shakira's performance at the Grammy's held over the weekend. She grabbed Alicia Key's young son and showed off her hips don't lie giraffe on a Red Bull bender dancing moves. I hope the kid didn't puke from all the jumping up and down. See the clip below.

Comment: Tay Tay can't dance for shit.  Poor kid. This is going to haunt him for life.
