Jurassic MB

I just watch jurassic world. There where a lot of instances that the MB cars was shown as if it was being advertised just like Samsung. From the new GLE coupe to the monster GL 6x6 the cars have a 3-4 seconds of its own movie fame. I was more looking at the details of those cars rather than looking at the details of the movie. It is funny whenever the MB cars will show up it will dramatically slide in showing the car first then the actors which makes it look like they are advertising the cars. There was also a good shot of the GLE intetior. I wonder how much MB paid to get the movie use their vehicles. I was waiting for the GLE to get trashed by the big dinosaur but it did not happened. I also found the GLE to be prettier than Bryce Howard. One thing for sure MB did not get mentioned like the 1992 Jeep which still started even though it was almost 20 years old. Makes you wonder if that happened to a MB would it be the same when left in the jungle filed with dinosaur for 20 years then just gets slapped with an ATV battery or will the car show dozen of errors in the dashboard and one of it will say "dinosaur behind you, run to your nearest dealer".

Critics are panning it for too much CGA. They say the original was much better.

I've got little time for people who work to find what they don't like about something.

I saw it in a 3-D, shaking recliner theater with a great sound system and I thought it was great. Having said that, I go to movies for entertainment and check my brain at the door. It makes my $18 ticket much more enjoyable.

And I have to agree that the first one was better, if only for the fact that it was original and this one is a sequel and derives heavily from the first.

I agree with you great points

The first one was better sure but it terms of entertainment, "special effect" and drama the sequel is very good!!

IMO the dinosaurs almost looked like living animals in some instances , that was impressive!

Back in the days, I remember seeing the silicon graphic computer (worth way over usd 30'000 each) they used for J.P and that was already pretty insane...I can't imagine nowadays what computers they must use!
