I’ve at all times been of two minds about using common manufacturers in “Jurassic World.” On the one hand, it is blatant product placement, however on the opposite, it’s a somewhat correct rendering of a CityWalk-style buying and eating location. That was the mindset that director Colin Trevorrow and producer Frank Marshall had when creating this part of the Jurassic World theme park, as they expressed in a behind-the-scenes featurette. On the prime of their record for what to incorporate was Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville. Frankly, a Common-operated house like this might not be full with out a Margaritaville. They thought it might be much more enjoyable if Buffett got here in to be the bartender for that location within the movie.
Frank Marshall and Jimmy Buffett have been associates for over 40 years previous to Buffett’s passing, which makes asking for using Margaritaville a bit of simpler. Lately, the 2 collaborated fairly a bit. Marshall was the lead producer on the Broadway manufacturing of the Jimmy Buffett jukebox musical “Escape to Margaritaville.” He additionally directed and produced (together with Buffett) final yr’s “Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story” documentary, which surprisingly places Buffett on the forefront of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Pageant. So, not solely does the Margaritaville inclusion really feel germane to the world of the movie, however Frank Marshall acquired to have some enjoyable along with his buddy. Who can knock a few guys who, on the time, have been of their late 60s from wanting to try this?
Plus, “Jurassic World” acquired to have a enjoyable musical visitor for their premiere party. Jimmy Buffett, you may be missed.
