Jurassic World is the long-awaited continuation of the popular trilogy set 22 years after the events of the original film, with yet another dinosaur park in existence. There are, of course, more deadly troubles to go along with it. Pan tells the story of the origins of the legendary Peter Pan and Pitch Perfect 2 has the winning, madcap acappella girl group entering an international competition that has never been won by an American group. All three movies, which boast well-loved plots, all contain enormous A-list celebrities, which is almost guaranteed to attract fans - and ticket sales.
