Description

The So Many Sequels crew reviews Jurassic World Rebirth, the latest entry in the Jurassic Park franchise! Set five years after Jurassic World Dominion, this reboot brings in Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey as new leads in a world where dinosaurs have retreated to isolated equatorial environments.

Josh, David, and Garrett break down the film's approach to storytelling, action sequences, and whether starting fresh with new characters can revitalize this long-running franchise. They discuss the movie's place in the broader Jurassic universe, compare it to previous entries, and explore what modern audiences want from blockbuster sequels.

How does Jurassic World Rebirth stack up against the original Jurassic Park? Can new blood save an aging franchise? And what does this mean for the future of dinosaur movies? Listen to find out where the hosts land on this summer blockbuster.
