After swindling his way into loads of cash, Yoshii gradually attempts to disconnect from humanity, moving out of the city, shunning his girlfriend, and entrusting duties to his new, devoted assistant. Before long his life is plagued by a series of mysterious, sinister incidents that threaten to upend his success and bring about a most violent demise.

Museum of Jurassic Technology Needs Your Help After Fire
One of our favorite tourist traps and local nonsense purveyor sadly had a fire this July. If you've never been, it's a super strange museum on par with The Mystery Shack from Gravity Falls. We wouldn't take much of the info in their seriously.
The Museum of Jurassic Technology suffered fire and smoke damage on July 8th. Still under investigation, it looks like arson from someone pushing something on fire through their door mailbox slit.

And a retro style machine, that takes digital pics.
Why Predator: Badlands Looks So Much More Fun Than Jurassic World: Rebirth
After sadly watching Jurassic World: Rebirth we can tell you we're so much more hyped for Predator: Badlands. Why? Because it looks fun. It looks like the director is having fun with the sci-fi world the characters and monsters are drawn from. Rebirth isn't fun, it isn't playful. And, not blaming the actors, but the writing and chemistry between actors is extinct. It got so much more money and marketing. Heck we posted on the 7-Eleven pop-up on it multiple times. However, I can't recommend it when any other of the Jurassic Park movies would have been better. Use it to fall a sleep when hits streaming.
So save your movie budget for November and see Predator: Badlands for Thanksgiving.
