Here's an Easter egg in the Jurassic World movie (not a spoiler):

At the beginning, when Jeff Goldblum's character is testifying before Congress about how dire things are, there is a news scroll across the bottom (I think it's MSNBC). At one point it says, "The President has denied that dinosaurs ever existed." Slam!

There's also a "nasty woman" reference.

It's a wild ride. If you're looking for a thought-provoking discussion of the place of dinosaurs in the modern world, and whether man erred horribly by bringing them back from extinction, well, that isn't this film. Basically, it's "Run!" and "Run!!!" and "RUN!!!" and "CHOMP!"

It's a lot of fun.
