Oh, man! Just the what the world needs right now! More Jurassic Park and more Star Wars! Please, dear Lord in Heaven, make this not happen. Yes, according to the traffic whores sleuths at MovieWeb.com (HA!), Joe Johnston, director of Captain America: The First Avenger, says a Jurassic Park re-boot is coming down the pike, and he has a Boba Fett movie in mind for George “Hollah for Dollahs” Lucas.
So what is fact and what is fiction? Well, Steven Spielberg, attending his first-ever Comic-Con last month to promote his upcoming movie, The Adventures of Tintin, said, “We have a writer who is writing a treatment and hopefully we will make Jurassic Park 4 in the next two to three years.” Johnston, who directed Jurassic Park III, added, “The most important thing I can tell you is that it starts a new trilogy that will go off in a different direction — a completely different direction that is very exciting.”
I’m cool with more dino movies coming down the pike. I dig dinosaurs like I dig sharks, but I hope, for all that is good and holy, that a Boba Fett movie never sees the light of day. I don’t give a crap how much merchandise the Son of Jango sells at Wal-mart. This is your fault, fanboys. You and George Lucas ruined Star Wars. For shame.
