As If the T. Rex Wasn’t Enough: JURASSIC WORLD
Spotlight on Summer Blockbuster JURASSIC WORLD By Tinsel & Tine Editor, Le Anne Lindsay This summer we’re back in movie franchise heaven starting with The Avengers, now Jurassic World (4th installment) and next Magic Mike, and so far the first two have hit their marks as far as I’m concerned!
