Universal's already shown three trailers. Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt are on a world promotional tour. And there are tie-ins for everything from Dairy Queen Blizzards to Jeeps. So all that's left is to buy tickets.
And Fandango has them available right now. As an incentive to book them this weekend, the site is offering double loyalty points until June 3. (The free Fandango VIP program allows users to earn points to use on movie tickets or downloads, as well as exclusive movie merchandise.) Fans can even purchase exclusive Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom gift cards.
Tickets can be purchased online and in the app up through June 22, when the film opens (and of course every day after that), but the double points offer expires at 11:59pm on Sunday.
About Kip Mooney
Like many film critics born during and after the 1980s, my hero is Roger Ebert. The man was already the best critic in the nation when he won the Pulitzer in 1975, but his indomitable spirit during and after his recent battle with cancer keeps me coming back to read not only his reviews but his insightful commentary on the everyday. But enough about a guy you know a lot about.
I knew I was going to be a film critic—some would say a snob—in middle school, when I had to voraciously defend my position that The Royal Tenenbaums was only a million times better than Adam Sandler’s remake of Mr. Deeds. From then on, I would seek out Wes Anderson’s films and avoid Sandler’s like the plague.
Still, I like to think of myself as a populist, and I’ll be just as likely to see the next superhero movie as the next Sundance sensation. The thing I most deplore in a movie is laziness. I’d much rather see movies with big ambitions try and fail than movies with no ambitions succeed at simply existing. I’m also a big advocate of fun-bad movies like The Room and most of Nicolas Cage’s work.
In the past, I’ve written for The Dallas Morning News and the North Texas Daily, which I edited for a semester. I also contributed to Dallas-based Pegasus News, which in the circle of life, is now part of The Dallas Morning News, where I got my big break in 2007. Eventually, I’d love to write and talk about film full-time, but until that’s a viable career option, I work as an auditor for Wells Fargo.
I hope to one day meet my hero, go to the Toronto International Film Festival, and compete on Jeopardy. Until then, I’m excited to share my love of film with you.
