Nothing In Jurassic World Is Natural. (Jurassic World)


Listen Later

It’s July, it’s hot, and the elves are back together to keep the Christmas spirit alive—even if the only snow in sight is digital! This week, Anthony, Julia, and Thom wrangle some nostalgia and take on 2015's "Jurassic World" to answer the most important question: does a single Christmas song and a December setting make this dino-blockbuster a holiday film, or is it just a T-Rex-sized summer popcorn flick with a festive aftertaste?

Pour yourself a glass of eggnog (or a margarita, Jimmy Buffett-style) and join us as we:

  • Reminisce about our first "Jurassic Park" theater experiences and why that original movie still gives us chills (and maybe a few nightmares).

  • Break down the plot, the characters, and the sheer spectacle of "Jurassic World"—from Chris Pratt’s raptor whispering to Bryce Dallas Howard’s high-heeled heroics.

  • Debate the movie’s “Christmas credentials”—from the opening scene’s holiday music to the glaring lack of decorations in the park. (Seriously, where are the lights? Where’s the tree? Universal, call us!)

  • Laugh about the best cameos, the most over-the-top dino moments, and why theme parks never learn their lesson.

  • Share our signature ratings and decide if "Jurassic World" deserves a spot on your Christmas watchlist, or if it’s best saved for a heatwave movie marathon.

    As always, expect plenty of tangents, pop culture references, and a healthy dose of snark. Whether you’re here for the dinosaurs, the nostalgia, or the ongoing “is it a Christmas movie?” debate, we’ve got you covered.

    Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, join our Facebook group to share your thoughts (and your favorite "Jurassic Park" moments), and keep the conversation going on Twitter and Instagram. And don’t forget—Christmas is never more than a podcast episode away!
