‘Jurassic World: Rebirth’ brings back the dinosaurs in the best way! With Cole Halvorsen

"Jurassic World: Rebirth" is poised to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the summer, as the seventh in a long legacy of Jurassic Park movies. On this episode of Fan Effect, host and producer KellieAnn Halvorsen is joined by her 13-year-old nephew Cole Halvorsen, who is also a massive dino-fan. The movie, featuring a new cast, including the stunning Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey, is a blend of action, peril, and all your favorite movie tropes. 

The movie somehow balances nostalgia with originality, incorporating elements from previous films and introducing new characters and dinosaurs. While not a perfect movie, it really is a perfect popcorn movie! Our first segment is spoiler-free, then we dive deeply into the Jurassic Park franchise, movie magic, and why we love these ancient creatures so so much!
