Ready for Jurassic Park 4?

Over the weekend, film director, Steven Spielburg announced at Comic-Con Interntional Convention in San Diego, California, that there will be a Jurrasic 4 coming to theaters in 2013 or 2014.  


Spielburg made a claim; "We have a story. We have a writer working on the script, and I think we will see a 'Jurassic 4' in our foreseeable future, probably in the next two or three years."  

Joe Johnston, the "Captain America" director who worked on the first three, had a bit more to add to Spielburg's comment.  According to the Huffington Post, Johnson stated; "We are in discussions about 'Jurassic Park 4, the most important thing I can tell you is that it starts a new trilogy that will go off in a different direction -- a completely different direction that is very exciting."

Spielburg, a sci-fi film fan since childhood who made the genre movies "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," was at Comic-Con to receive an "Inkpot Award" for achievement in science-fiction movies.

Reuters claims that Spielburg received a standing ovation from the crowd and told them: "We all love the same source material that has brought all of us here and the source material has always been the collective imaginations of so many brilliant artists and storytellers."


Steven Spielburg is a man that needs no introduction.  He is a man of innovation and strong imagintation.  When he created the first Jurrasic Park in 1993, he really brought to life the pre-historic creatures and had them co-exist with human beings for the first time that hisotry and science would ever allow such existence.  The film was indeed a success and so was the sequal, Jurassic Park 2.  However, Jurassic Parl 3, may I just note was not directed by Spielburg, was not a success.  The question is, are we ready for another Jurassic Park adventure after twenty years?

Since news of the anticipatd Jurassic Park 4, many fans are already becoming impatient.  They are eager to see what this new film will bring.  Whether it be a nostalgic crowd awaitng a film from their youth or a sci-fi infused audience, the buzz of Jurassic 4 is being heard world wide.  There is no doubt that Spielburg will add much of his signature wonder to this highly anticipated film.

Negative Perception Negates deals for Casey Anthony

Over the past three years, Casey Anthony has made a name for herself.  She is one of the most recognizable women in the world right now.  However, the way she acquired her infamous reputation had to do with the murder of her 2 and half year old daughter, Caylee Anthony.  


Even though Casey was not found guilty of the murder do to insufficient proof, many entertainment professionals were aware of the attention that was drawn to this case.  Hence, they assumed that they should cash in on her persona right away.  As of right now, Casey has been offered a deal to appear on the Maury Show, a deal to star in an adult film, a movie concerning the case seems to be in the works, and of course a million dollar book deal.  


However, several of those offers have been retracted due to the negative perception she has made for herself.  Vivid's Co-Chairman, Steven Hirsch, has reportedly changed his mind after Vivid fans expressed that they want nothing to do with Anthony.   


The question now is, will the other offers be retracted?  If the porn industry does not want anything to to with Cassey, how will other appearances and books sell?  The idea that these offers are directly intended to profict Casey, may in fact turn off the consumers.  However, there has not been such a hype of interest in such a case since the O.J. Simpson trial.  There has been talk that the jurors should come together to write a book about their experiences during this trial.  There may be better chances of a profit for the jurors than there may be for Anthony.  I have seen many messages throughout social media of people protesting Casey Anthony's offers.

I will never forget the impression I got from these four men; Brian Cole, Keven Leonard, Ryan Haanstraa and Carl Pfeiffer, on my first interview.  I was not only impressed by their experiences and skills but more impressed by their very apparent energy and passion they felt for their work.  The positive energy I felt was contagious.  This group of people clearly had their inividual "egde" about them.  They are all very unique and yet, they manage to compliment one another beautifully.  They are fresh and innovated.  It only took a moment to know that I wanted to be part of their team.

In my short time with this respectable group of individuals, I have learned that they are eco-friendly in all that they do.  I have learned that they are always willing to find a way to work on something they believe in even when things may not seem feasable.  I learned that they LOVE what they do.  They are a well connected and highly creative team with much "energy, emotion, and edge".
