This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]497649[/split]
If Deadline's article about its current tracking is accurate, it certainly won't do either unless the reviews and word of mouth are terrible.
I think it looks like a fun return to the franchise with enough balance of newness and faithfulness to please fans and those looking for something different.
The problem I have with these clips I've been watching, and truthfully a lot of Hollywood films have this problem, is that the characters are all talking AT the audience instead of talking TO each other. I mean, I cringe at this. We aren't stupid. I like to see what character motives are between each other when they're engaged in conversation, NOT talking in point form to the audience so every 12-60 year old can easily follow along like we're watching a coloring book tutorial.
I hope.
I just feel like this is Spielberg's baby, like Indiana Jones, and if he's not directing it, it's just someone trying to be Steven Spielberg. I had the same problem with JP3.
I have that problem with J.J. Abrams too, specifically Super 8. The whole time I'm thinking, "Wow, good job making a Spielberg movie. Too bad Spielberg didn't make it himself".

Story already seems much better than JP3. At that point they were grasping at straws for ways to go back to one of the islands. This time it makes sense seeing as the park is functioning and working. This is more so a legit sequel to JP than the others.
So this is a return to the original ISLAND finally??
