Just coming off a brutal three weeks straight at The Plant. Having a delightful English breakfast and in one hour I'll be seeing Jurassic World in IMAX baby!

Definitely let us know what you think. I can't really assess it objectively as Jurassic Park was my favorite movie as a kid. I'm definitely going to see it again and I hope the IMAX is worth it. Some movies make really good, artistic use of the enhanced effects, others just flaunt it going 'OOOOOooooOOOooOoOooohhh, we spent a shit load of money on this, doesn't it look coooool?'

You know? I want to think they made the trailers so shitty just to keep our expectations low. I enjoyed the hell out of it. There were a couple cringe moments I won't spoil but there were also three big payoff moments that were easily worth my money.

Plus I'm a sucker for D'Onofrio.

He rocks in the new Daredevil. It's ultraviolent but otherwise a pretty good show (I'm maybe halfway through the first season).

Yeah! I'm loving Daredevil. Haven't made it past his introduction at the art show due to my crazy hours. I want to go back but she doesn't care for the ultraviolence like I do.

We're back from the bar, watching Orange.

I'm happy to hear about it. The advertising is pretty heavy handed at times*, but I loved every frame that wasn't a Benz ad, and most of the ones that were if I'm being honest.
