It's been a summer of awaited sequels and the past few weeks we got Jurassic:World Fallen Kingdom, the second installment of the Jurassic World franchise, and Incredibles 2, fourteen years after The Incredibles was released.

In this week's episode of Part-Time Characters, the characters and our special guest, Jerry Rodriguez, have a lot to say. Are we getting the sequels we deserve? Did we even need any of these sequels? We start off by discussing our love for the original Jurassic Park and how we feel about this glossy reboot. Then we review Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Warning! There is quite a lot of spoiler talk but we do our best to mark the time frames for each spoiler.

The second half of the episode is dedicaded to Pixar's Incredibles 2. Bridget has a lot to say for the awaited sequel. Is this really the best they can give us after fourteen years? How come no one remembers Jack Jack bursting into? Does Dash even have a story in this movie? Again, spoiler alert very close to the end. Sadly, there really isn't much to spoil because the movie is incredibly predictable.

Question of the week: Are any of these high budget sequels worth it?

Silly question of the week: George RR Martin or JRR Tolkien?
