Like before, the film uses a combination of practical animatronics and cutting-edge visual effects to bring the dinosaurs to life. The story follows people trying to survive in a dangerous world filled with cloned dinosaurs, and explores the moral questions surrounding their existence. Universal and Amblin Entertainment are producing the film, with support from leading visual effects companies.

‘Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale’ (2025)

This final installment brings the Crawley family and their staff back together to wrap up long-running storylines from the series and previous movies.

A.V. Rockwell’s first feature film, arriving Wednesday, November 19th, tells the story of Inez, a woman determined to create a new life for herself and her son in a rapidly evolving New York City after taking him out of foster care.

‘The Expendables’ (2010)

The action film, launching the series, arrives on November 20th. It centers around a team of highly skilled mercenaries tasked with overthrowing a dictator, but they soon discover a shadowy figure from the CIA is pulling the strings. Sylvester Stallone directs and stars as Barney Ross, alongside an all-star cast including Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Terry Crews, and Mickey Rourke. Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger also make appearances. Stallone co-wrote the script with David Callaham, and the film is a throwback to the classic action movies of the late 80s and early 90s.

‘Jurassic Park’ (1993)

Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park brought dinosaurs to life using a combination of incredible practical effects created by Stan Winston and groundbreaking computer-generated imagery from ILM. Based on Michael Crichton’s novel, the film centers on a disastrous preview of a theme park where the safety systems malfunction. John Williams’ iconic music and the stunning Hawaiian locations are also vital parts of the movie’s success. The film’s blend of practical and digital effects became a standard for big-budget action movies that followed.

‘The Grinch’ (2018)

The animated movie from Illumination stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the voice of the Grinch, offering a fresh, updated look at Whoville. Directors Yarrow Cheney and Scott Mosier used vibrant colors and focused on detailed facial expressions, setting it apart from the live-action film.
