Wednesday, May 23,2000 ENTERTAINMENT BG NEWS Summer movie explosion By lames Eldred ENTERIAINMENr WRITER It's summer again, and with it comes the summer movie season, when the studios release their cash cows. So you know what that means, explosions, state- of-the-art special effects and lots of monkeys. At least that's what this summer promises with its biggest releases, starting this week with the Jerry Bruckheimer/Michael Bay (The Rock") epic, "Pearl Harbor." A dramatic, special-effects fueled retelling of the lapanese bombing, the film seems to have taken the "Titanic" rule of movie making, which is fill two hours with a formula romance, and then spend nearly $200 million on an hour-long action sequence. The film cost as much as "Titanic", and expectations are just as high. When it comes to action, the next biggest thing to "Pearl Harbor" goes back even further in time: All the way to the Paleozoic Era. Jurassic ParV 3, opens July 18 and not only promises to feature more dinosaurs and even better special effects than the first two films, it also boasts the return of Sam Neil as Dr. Grant, who (wisely) bowed out of the first sequel. The film also stars William H. Macy and Tea Leoni as a pair of researchers that get trapped on the island with Dr. Grant when their plane crashes there. It looks silly and stupid, but who cares, it has big mean lizards eating people. This summer Spielberg does not seem happy enough with one giant movie coming out (although he only produced "JP3") because he's also releasing the highly anticipated "A.I: Artificial Intelligence" starring Haley Joel Osment as a robot boy that desperately wants to be real. Obvious shades of Pinocchio aside, this film looks to be ambitious, even for Spielberg, as he picked it up from Stanley Kubrick's to do-list. Hopefully the film will be more full of that Kubrick- SUMMER FUCKS: Jerry weirdness than the Spielbergian glow. It opens June 29.
