Ahead of the UK release of Jurassic World, we talk to director Colin Trevorrow about Jaws, Spielberg, and the film's most horrifying scene.
The last time we caught up with director Colin Trevorrow, it was ahead of the UK release of his sci-fi rom-com, Safety Not Guaranteed in 2012. And how times have changed since; within months of that interview, Trevorrow and his writing partner Derek Connolly (who wrote Safety) had agreed to take on a fourth Jurassic Park movie - a project stuck in a production quagmire for more than a decade.
Trevorrow and Connolly's fresh perspective seemed to grease the gears on the project, and now, here it is: Jurassic World, the bigger, more evolved sequel to a series that hasn't been seen on the silver screen since 2001. Its story could be seen as a reflection of the filmmaking duo's journey from the east coast to the cutthroat landscape of Hollywood: in the movie,...

Bear Grylls
Man Versus Wild action man Bear Grylls is set to return to British TV in a new documentary series titled The Island of Lost Blokes. The series sees Grylls taking a group of pampered Brits to a remote island devoid of home comforts, basic sanitation and ready-made-food. The series is being billed as a research project of sorts aimed at discovering how ordinary blokes may cope when faced with a Tom Hanks style Castaway situation.
Host Bear Grylls hopes to push the contestants to the limit. He told a press briefing “This is Lord of the Flies meets Bear Grylls meets Darwin’s survival of the fittest. I want to find out what happens when you strip people of all the comforts of modern life – does 21st century man still have it in him to fight for his survival?” The show is set to air...

Having previously directed some episodes of “Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace” and that Pulp Fiction episode of “Community,” Richard Ayoade finally dives into feature filmmaking with his debut, Submarine. The Sundance hit tells the coming-of-age story of a young boy named Oliver, who meets an off-beat girl named Jordana while going through his own domestic problems.
I sat down with Ayoade to discuss his cinematic influences, what he was like at Oliver’s age, and more. Submarine opens in Chicago on June 10, 2011.
Oliver wishes that someone would make a documentary about his life. What would the reviews of your documentary be like?
It really depends on how well it was made.
How well do you think it would be made?
I imagine poorly. It could only be of limited interest. So I guess [the reviews] would say, “Why was this made?” I don’t think it would be a theatrical release.
What would it be about?...
