| Jurassic World: Rebirth is the latest offering of the franchise, and the best of them in a long time. It’s fun, and honestly I could leave it there. Occasionally it’s smart. Black Widow kicks a pterosaur in the face. There’s an actual debate over whether to open source a cure that will save the lives of a fifth of the population of the Earth. After Star Wars saying fuck fascism, Jurassic Park embracing pharmaceutical creative commons is the emotional followup we all needed. Good job, pop culture! |
