Simon and Jim travel back to Isla Nublar to explore their complex and contradictory feelings about Colin Trevorrow’s requel, JURASSIC WORLD. They discuss the unmade Jurassic Park IV, the film’s simultaneous embrace of capitalism, consumer excess, and product placement while attempting to satirise those things, the film’s abhorrent attitude towards women, how horrible Owen Grady is as a character, and how the film is really entertaining despite all those things.

Content warnings: death and mutilation, animal abuse, misogyny and sexism, white supremacy and racism, genetic engineering.
