Furiosa’s Fierce Stunt Double Talks Fury Road

It was tough. I’m not going to say it was easy because it really wasn’t. Like the scenes where you see me under the truck holding on, or on the side of the monster truck, that’s such a small clip of it, but I was under that truck for days and days going through the desert… We kept going, and they would keep shooting until I couldn’t hold on any more.

Hero.

Good read.
 
Review: Jurassic World Starring Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Nick Robinson & Ty Simpkins

But ultimately “Jurassic World” is an engaging, entertaining and worthy successor to “Jurassic Park” and Steven Spielberg’s franchise. And as a vehicle that hopes to propel a new series forward, it’s arguably one of the rare reboots (like “Mad Max: Fury Road”) that earns its right to continue and will undoubtedly receive the crucial approval rating that launches the series into a new blockbuster age.

Genuinely surprised. Currently has 73% on Rotten Tomatoes
 
Colin Trevorrow on Getting Sucked Into the ‘Jurassic World;’ Feminism and Joss Whedon

The reality of what was going on with us was we looked around and we had a corporation that need a movie to hit a release date, in order to please its shareholders, and whether that was a good idea or not, that was happening. So we wrote a whole dinosaur movie about that. I think also in the end where it led us was that, I don’t necessarily want to say the Indominus Rex represents anything, but its creation is a little bit about that thirst for profit, that need for profit being a dehumanizing and potentially negative force that can leave a lot of bodies in its wake. Hopefully that doesn’t make it more of a political film than it needs to be. It’s not a diatribe, it’s not a screed.
