Sequelisers

Here it is - the start of our wild card final season, and we're aiming to go out with a bang, beginning with a franchise that kicked off with one of the greatest blockbusters of all time and has delivered nothing but disappointing follow-ups since. Can we salvage the core DNA of Jurassic Park six films in, or is it doomed to slow extinction?

While there's no clear hierarchy, there is a sort of understanding or perception that the director is the top job on a film set. So, naturally, it's no surprise that many actors find themselves drawn to the role. But why? Is it to live out a power fantasy? To get an under represented story told? Or is it the chance to direct the greatest talent of all: themselves? This week, we try to answer these questions and more.

We've discussed video game movies but this week it's a little different. Today we're talking about the relationship between movies and video games through how video games appear on film.

The cultural and cinematic footprint of the Second World War is huge, spanning every decade since the war began, crossing genres and national borders, and producing everything from critically-acclaimed epics to exploitative schlock.

Crossovers seem to be the place that franchises go just before they die (or get rebooted), but are there any that actually produce interesting films?

And then they just up and disappeared, relegated to a handful of sporadic releases. Today we're gonna talk about them and the various attempts to resurrect them.
