Jurassic World: Fallen Kaledom - Show Notes


In this episode of The Lettuce Podcast, Charlotte and Laura head back to Isla Nublar to check out the dinosaurs in the new movie Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. They discuss characters old and new, the reality of the story, and whether they want another movie. Charlotte notes her disappointment in the misuse Claire Dearing's strengths, but appreciates the comic relief of the IT specialist Franklin Webb. Laura wishes for more backstory on Owen Grady, and discusses why she felt Maisie Lockwood was the most interesting character. Together the hosts share joy in the dinosaur doctor Zia, reveal which dinosaur was their favorite, and discuss whether the film fits the franchise. Is creating a stronger, fiercer dinosaur always going to be a plot point for the Jurassic World franchise? Should an action movie about dinosaurs also explore morality? And do Claire and Owen really need to have a romantic relationship? All these topics and more are up for debate on this week's episode.

For Fun & Games, Charlotte and Laura take a Buzzfeed quiz to find out what dinosaur they are. They also use a name generator to pick out what the unique dinosaur names. Play along and post your results in the comments section.
