Fun time fact: Humans are closer in time to the Tyrannosaurus Rex(65 million years ago) than the T-Rex was to Stegosaurus(155 million years ago).

It was breathtaking to see it in theaters as a kid.

My favorite little "blink and you'll miss it" scene is when Dr. Grant is trying to buckle his seat belt on the helicopter, and he only has two female-ends of the buckles, but he makes it work by tying them together. Just like how all the dinosaurs in the park are female, but eventually life finds a way to allow them to reproduce. Such a great little hidden metaphor that's representative of the message of the movie. Also it cannot be understated how fvcking terrifying that T-Rex STILL is. This movie was made 30 years ago and IT LOOKS SO REAL IT'S CRAZY.

The raptor hunting exposition was exemplified when they ate Muldoon. He was staring at the raptor in front of him and was attacked from the side by a raptor he didn’t even know it was there. Exactly what Grant said in the beginning.

One thing about this you can never experience seeing this on a small tv is just how BIG this "felt" in the theater... not just that its dinosaurs, or how Spielberg and his cinematographer shot it to emphasize the scale.. Here's what I mean... 1) Dinosaurs had never looked or felt this real in a film... both the CG tech and the puppets was brand new and perfectly utilized and we felt it 2) This movie brought brand new Surround Sound tech into theaters. Not every theater had it, but the ones that did.. holy crap... theatrical movies never "SOUNDED" this good, or this LOUD. The theater would practically shake and rumble with the bass and the roars. Again, people are used to it now.. but when this debuted, the standard theater sound was pretty awful.. and only came from the front of the theater. 3) The ads hyping the film for months never showed a full dino.. so we really didn't know what they looked like til the film.. and NO ONE was prepared for the T Rex paddock scene. I'll tell you this.. when the T-rex broke through the cables... people were in shock.... it felt like the temperature in the theater shot up 10 degrees in 5 seconds... and then that roar just ripped through the room.. people were freaking out. I went back to see it 10 times with different crowds just to see their reaction to that one scene. Pretty much everyone in the theater was convinced that this movie was a total game changer.. and it was.. but not necessarily for the better. a magic trick this good can only work once.

A little detail I like is how the T-Rex attacks the car. I think she's attacking it like it's an animal: knocks it over, bites the legs (tires), rips into it's innards (undercarriage) and pins it in place.

My childhood movie it has a special place in my heart

Much of the movie was shot on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, which is why the place looks so stunning. The animatronics were created by a legendary special effects master, Stan Winston and his self named studio. He’s responsible for many other famous characters in film, from the Terminator to Predator, the Alien queen from Aliens, and many more. The CG shots that stitch together the animatronics are some of the first ever done of animals, albeit extinct ones. At the time, they were revolutionary and completely changed the way people made movies, but there are shockingly few shots that actually use CG, around 50 or so. For comparison, the three Lord of the Rings movies have, in order, 540 shots, 900 shots, and the last had over 1,500 shots, released a decade after Jurassic.

As much as Rexy the Tyrannosaurus rex (yes, that's her canon name. She's known as Roberta in the novel version of Jurassic Park) scared the living hell out of me as a kid, she's the reason her species is my favorite dinosaur. Also, I love how they used modern animal and every day object sound effects to make the dinosaur sounds. Adult raptors: Tortoise mating call, walrus chest roar, angry goose hiss and dolphin scream recorded underwater Baby raptors: Owlets (baby owls), kits (baby foxes) Gallimimus: Female horse in heat (getting shaken to death by the Tyrannosaur) Brachiosaurus: Slowed down donkey calls, the sneeze was a whale breathing through its blowhole(s) mixed with an active fire hydrant Dilophosaurus: Hawk, swan, rattlesnake and howler monkey Tyrannosaurus rex: Dog playing with a rope toy, elephant calf vocalizations, an alligator's gurgling vocalizations, a tiger's snarls and roars Triceratops: Cow mooing, human breathing through a tube

The book this film is based on was written by Michael Crichton. In addition to a fantastic author, he was also a Harvard Graduated Doctor. These films are based on the works of Michael Crichton -- 'Jurassic Park' 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' 'Twister' 'Sphere' 'Westworld' 'The Andromeda Strain' 'The First Great Train Robbery' 'The Terminal Man' 'Coma' 'Looker' 'Runaway' 'Physical Evidence' 'Disclosure' 'Congo' 'The 13th Warrior' 'Timeline' -- As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.

The cool thing about Lex's hacker scene in this movie is, despite the fact that that program looks totally made up for the movie, the UNIX system is real, and the 3D file system was also real

13:35 "I thought that I was gonna dislike this character, but... he's speaking sense." Oh, Dr. Malcolm's _brilliant._ He's kind of flamboyant and that tends to give people the wrong first impression of him, but he's _brilliant._

This movie was released on my twelfth birthday, so my mum surprised me by pretending we were going to the toy shop to buy anything I wanted. I was obsessed with dinosaurs at that age, so when she finally revealed her devious plan in the cinema car park, I almost cried with excitement. I'll never forget that day.

The Toronto Raptors are the 'Raptors' because of this movie. There was a huge wave of dinosaur popularity, and particularly 'raptors' because of this movie, which premiered around the time that Toronto was doing public polling for their franchise name. One thing led to another and... yeah. Another tell is the mascot... it kinda looks like the velociraptors in this movie... in reality they were smaller (think more like turkey sized) and feathered... They knew this at the time the movie was made, but they didn't think that would look intimidating enough, so went with something that was more like a utahraptor (but they still omitted the feathers) because it was more intimidating.

Just noticed not to long ago that the "life finds a way" is actually foreshadowed when they arrive by helicopter and Dr. Grant can't get his seat belt to work. If you notice he uses 2 "female" belt buckles, and "finds a way" to tie them together. That was brilliant.

The bit with Hammond sitting and eating ice-cream, I assumed it to be stress eating. I know someone who stress eats and when they do, they seem calm.

I got lost in the mall when I was like four and police shut the place down trying to find me. Where was I? Front row for Jurassic park 2 in the theaters. How’d I sneak in there? No idea. But I still love these damn movies.

I was lucky enough to watch this in the theaters on opening night as a kid. I wish I could fully articulate just how amazing it was, seeing dinosaurs on the screen and how it was such huge leap forward in special effects. The T-Rex escape scene - especially the sheer _sound_ of the roars pinning me to my seat - will forever be burned into my memory. 1993 doesn't feel that long ago... One other little thing I enjoyed was the full music theme which plays during the credits. It starts with the epic main theme, then gives way to a more soothing piano rendition. But in the last 30 seconds, the piano fades away, and it's replaced with somber horns and shrill violins. It underscores that once the adventure and heartfelt moments are over, the dinosaurs are still out there, with sinister and terrifying implications of what's to come. The novel is great as well; there are plenty of moments that never made it to the screen (for the sake of pacing and gory visuals), and there are differences with regards to some of the characters. As for the sequels... Well, they're pretty hit or miss, and none of them capture the magic of this first one. The Lost World is okay as long as you focus on the spectacle instead of the writing. Jurassic World is basically both a sequel and a soft reboot of Jurassic Park, but for modern audiences.

If you were thrilled by this one, then you should definitely watch " Jurassic Park 2. The lost world" Even more dinosaurs 🦕

I'll admit that John Hammond in the movie hes not a bad guy but his book version and is actually in the actual book he was the bad guy.

OMG the gold hair wraps???! Delicate. Elegant. Glamorous. What an incredible look!

Cool trivia: When Doctor Grant is on the helicopter, he can't get his seatbelt to buckle because instead of a male and female part, he has two female ends. He 'finds a way' by tying the two female ends together.

Yeah I'd say its a perfect movie. There's nothing i dislike about it. I personally enjoy all the sequels and they're all worth watching don't listen to the haters. I think you'd have fun with them all. They all have something fun about them. I saw the 6th film in the cinema and had a blast. Hope you do too if you decide to watch it

This is still among my favorite theater experiences ever. I grew up totally mad in love with dinosaurs, and 25 years later this came out and that love was affirmed. I saw it in theaters 3 times the week it opened, and just saw it again in theater last week. And I still love dinosaurs.

I worked at the theater when it came out, and even 30 years later I think it holds up. It is definitely one of my favorites, and I was never big into dinosaurs either.

Love your new hair!! Great reaction too thanks :) This was a groundbreaking step in CGI. It was the very first time we saw that organic things could be done convincingly in computer graphics. There were animatronics used as well - and the fact that they could interchangeably go from animatronic to CGI and back again seamlessly just shows what a great job they did.

They built a full-sized, animatronic T-Rex puppet for some of the closeup scenes. The actors were actually scared of being around it. The reason being that the foam latex used for its skin soaked up a lot of water in the rain scenes, making it much heavier and harder to control than it should have been. Given that the entire thing probably weighed over 1,000 lbs, nobody wanted to have it malfunction near them.

Great to see someone almost as tense and scared watching this as I was, in the cinema as a kid.

Don't take a drink every time she precedes a comment with "I'm sorry."

Jeff Goldblum Jurassic Park: "Must...go faster." 🦖 Jeff Goldblum Independence Day: "MUST GO FASTER!" 👽 P.S. I saw this movie 6 times in theatres as a kid, that's how epic it was. Feeling the T-Rex's steps while seeing the vibration in the water...was a cinematic experience you can never forget.

13:12 Well, the carnivores ARE typically the ones people get the most fascinated by. And they THOUGHT they had everything under control with the electric fences and other security measures.

Random fact: When the T-rex pushed the glass of the car roof through, it was an accident it wasn't meant to collapse, that's why the kids looked so terrified. They weren't acting.

The reason they designed and bred the dangerous dinosaurs is not to dissimilar to the lions/tigers in our zoos now. Though it would be cool to only have herbivores, it would get boring pretty fast. Everyone enjoys seeing a majestic creature of death and destruction imo

It’s hard to express how much I love watching people watch this for the first time, since I also was born the same year this came out and it was my favourite film as a kid. It’s still my favourite, actually. I wore out our old VHS copy of it before I turned 8. Let’s just say that I can quote this movie line for line along with it. Needless to say, given that fact, watching fresh eyes get a glimpse is really cool for me.

The scene @23:44 where the jeep is falling over the wall while Doctor Grant and Lex are desperately hanging off a wire trying not to get hit by it as it falls, was actually filmed on the roof and side of one of the parking garages at Universal Studios.

Fun fact: It is in fact great to see in theaters, which is why its still shown occaisonally to this day!

I think there is some animatronics style stuff, but this was one of the first films to use a significant amount of CGI and it blow our minds when we saw it. I think they because the put so much care into it, it looks better than a lot of later movies where CGI was more cheap and shoddy. One of the cool things about this movie is that the idea put forward in the film that the birds are descended from dinosaurs was pretty speculative when it came out, but is completely mainstream science now.

Glad you enjoyed it! There are two more "Park" films, and 3 "World" films. Also, there's 5 seasons of Camp Cretaceous and the short "Battle at Big Rock." So lots more Jurassic to see, hope you're visit to the park isn't just this film. And if you like books, the original book Jurassic Park and it's sequel The Lost World are great reads!

I do think this is a perfect movie. It will always be in my personal top 10 list.

I adore this film and it’s a privilege seeing you enjoy this for the first time. I was very young when I first saw this and I still love it. Also I hope it isn’t too much to say but your hair looks absolutely awesome in this video. The gold colour looks really really pretty and it’s just the right amount to be a nice accent.

That opening scene is still one of the greatest openings to any film ever

Great reaction, not just to the amazing fun of the film, but also to the themes. Very enjoyable.

So glad you liked it! Great call it's a story about hubris. You caught on to Hammond's whole deal from the jump. As a kid I don't think I ever really understood that aspect, it was just "woah scary!

just a few months back my local theater did a special 30th anniversary showing of JP in 3D and let me tell you, it felt like i was watching it for the first time all over again. its one of those movies that just hits the spot every time.

The way the velociraptors hunt was shown when one killed Muldoon after sending Ellie to get the power back on. Since he was focused on one of them with his gun while the other got him from the side.

This is an interesting movie that was created as almost an "anti-action" movie action movie. In this film, the hero isn't Arnold coming in with guns and blowing the dinosaurs away. This isn't a shoot 'em up where the biggest, strongest guy survives and the nerds are evil or weak and either caused it or just die helplessly. This film was created with the protagonists of this film all being scientists, doctors, and mathematicians. The day is won not through brute force, but through logic and smart people making smart decisions. It's a film that celebrates nerds and being smart in a way that no film before it really did. Keep that in mind as you go forward, as this is the main issue with almost all of the sequels. They are definitely not as good as the original, but if you watch you'll see them slowly start to shift away from this theme as they go. Until we get to the newer/reboot series with Chris Pratt where they not only abandon the concept entirely, but decide to go the exact opposite way. The first of the reboots (Jurassic World I think?) is literally just, "Let's make Jurassic Park but this time lets let the dumb guy be the hero" and tries to hit all the same beats but feels WAY off because of it.

There's one possible dinosaur killed by the humans, it's in the opening when they are bringing the raptor to the pen and she attacks the gatekeeper. They first try tazing her to get her to left Joffery go, but when that doesn't work, Muldoon says shoot her and you then hear gunshots. But it's also implied that this raptor is "The Big One" that Muldoon talks about later on. So it's up to speculation. But one thing for sure the park did have more than 3 raptors at one point, by Muldoon's own words and the laboratory hatching scene.

"The Earth is just stunning". You got that right. This is more apparent the older I get.

Not gonna lie I love that you picked up on the leftover hints of who John Hammond really is; a conman and villain. Although the move tries to make nedry out to be the worst John was the actual villain and if you read or listen to the book it all becomes way clearer. But being older now I can't help but feel the way John Hammond is portrayed is kinda like watching a popular mean girl in highschool all fake niceness untill the end.

I think one of the things that made this movie great was that it not only had thrills, but such a sense of wonder. It was extra impactful in the theatre not just because of the size, but because in 1993 the CGI was new. Much was done with practical effects as well, but the realism of the CGI was new. It was quite a watch.

The floor literally shook in the cinema when the T-Rex roared, it was terrifying lol

Jurassic Park is genesis for the current Era of massive CVI movies, for better or worse. Remember, this movie is 30 years old and for the most part still holds up now.

Young people realizing that movies and films were better before heavy CGI took over is always a pleasure. You have no idea what you missed during the practical effects mixed with minimal CGI age

5:30 He's not wrong... babies smell, but apart from the normal stinky smells, babies actually smell good. It's hard to describe but it's true...I miss my babies being babies 😢

This came out when I was 20..didn't see it till I was 23! It's my most favorite movie! The kids are the best part!! "God bless you!" Hahahahaha 💖💖💖

11:17 "How do you interrupt the cellular mitosis?" and "Can't we see the unfertilized eggs?" It's like a high school kid picked up a biology text and picked a few words at random from a page and slapped them together, hoping it sounded "sciency".

Hammond is probably the best portrayal of a billionaire who doesn't really understand how he's not a god.

"If it works, it works." Perhaps the seatbelt was an analogy for something else...

Hammond was in shock. Not chill. He is worried.

I wasn’t very interested in dinosaurs either, and then I saw Jurassic Park 😻 fell in love.

Netflix’s ‘Movies that made us on’. The pieces on Jaws and Jurassic Park are a must see

Yeah, this is still my favorite one out of all the Jurassic movies. I love it!

Man, when I was a kid, I thought Hammond seemed like such a jolly, kindly old grandpa. As an adult I kind of hate him lol. Those raptor scenes at the end are still just, uggggh, so terrifying lol.

I can't believe this movie came out 30 years ago, so much of the effect still holds up today. It (and the team at ILM) basically revolutionized how special effects are done in all modern movies.

On a big screen, this absolutely blew people's minds! Parts of it were way too terrifying for little children - even adults. The two child actors in this film were awesome. They looked extremely stressed and scared to death when it called for them to do so. This was such a fabulous film - well done, well acted - and the music, by John Williams, of course was perfection. The only other Jurassic sequel that I REALLY like is Jurassic World (2015) with Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. That one involves the concept of a theme park as well - only this time with genetically modified dinosaurs. You should check that one out - it is really good.

Imagine you at three years old watching this in the IMAX theaters the footsteps of the T-Rex shake the seats the very roar reverberates the walls Yeah that was sometimes my grandmother and my mom took me to see this at that age when It just came out

Even dinosaurs spit out lawyers.

34:30 I was surprised that you said that, bc the thing with raptors coming from the side has already happened with Muldoon (the hunter) a few scenes before. 😄 41:39 You were... "sharked" 😂

The movie was filmed in one of the islands of Hawaii, if it looks familiar to you, it's because it's the exact same place where the show LOST was filmed

In the book, Hammond dies, but in the movie, Hammond is a transparent stand-in for Spielberg, so he survives.

Loved your reaction to one of my personal favorite movies! Always love when this movie gains a fan. As a pretty big jurassic nerd though, to answer your question why they would bring back such dangerous animals, there are actually 2 things to consider. 1. They were getting their DNA from mosquitos that could have fed on anything and so they actually didn't have any idea what they had until the dinosaurs hatched, there's a whole interesting conversation about it in the novel, but yeah that's one big reason 2. All of the "dinosaurs" that you see aren't really dinosaurs.... they're genetic mutations based off the DNA of dinosaurs but with all sorts of animals mixed in to fill the codes like the west African frogs. Because of this animals like dilophosaurus are able to spit venom and have huge frills, something the real animals didn't have. Likely this is also what lead to the velociraptors becoming giant super smart assassins. So it's not a matter of the park geneticists choosing what they wanted, but rather doing whatever they could to make it work, leading to some incredibly armed and hostile creatures. A further reinforcement of that quote, " you were so preoccupied with whether or not you could, you didn't stop to think if you should."

Now you need to watch the other 5! My favorite series of all time. I saw this one in theaters in 1993, and it was mind blowing! My generation’s Star Wars.

8:58 _"I_ would _not_ get out." Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler know their dinosaurs well enough to recognize that _this_ one, while quite huge, was an _herbivore._ As long as they avoid getting stepped on, they'll be fine.

There is no moments that are ”mmm mmm mmm”. The fx is perfect

I was 11years old when i saw this in the movie theater. I have never had a movie experiace qiute like that ever since.!

My #1 favorite movie of all time! Before Steven Spielberg was picked by Michael Crichton, his friend and author of the novel, to direct the film, Richard Donner, James Cameron, Tim Burton, and Joe Dante were considered. Cameron was upset about not directing the project, but learned that he knew he wasn't the right person for the job. He said in an interview for the film's $25th Anniversary that his version would have been darker, scarier and more violent. Before Sam Neill was cast Alan Grant, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, Michael Douglas, Tom Hanks, Sam Sheppard, William Hurt, Pierce Brosnan, Tom Selleck, Jeff Bridges, Nick Nolte, Kurt Russell, Robin Williams, Richard Dreyfuss, Dennis Quaid, Mel Gibson, Alec Baldwin, Tom Sizemore and Dylan McDermott were considered for the role. Before Laura Dern was cast as Ellie Satler, Christina Applegate, Juliette Binoche, Sandra Bullock, Bridget Fonda, Melanie Griffith, Nicole Kidman, Amanda Plummer, Kyra Sedgwick, Uma Thurman, Sigourney Weaver, Robin Wright, Helen Hunt, Gwyneth Paltrow, Julianne Moore, Teri Hatcher, Elizabeth Hurley, Sherilyn Fenn, Heather Graham, Lisa Rinna, Renee Zellweger, Kim Raver, Mariska Hargitay, Jodie Foster, Michelle Pfeiffer, Ally Sheedy, Geena Davis, Daryl Hannah, Jennifer Grey, Kelly McGillis, Jamie Lee Curtis, Linda Hamilton, Sarah Jessica Parker, Joan Cusack, Debra Winger, and Claire Danes were considered for the role. Before Jeff Goldblum was cast as Ian Malcolm, Johnny Depp, Jim Carrey, Michael Keaton, Bruce Campbell, Steve Guttenberg, Ted Danson, Michael J. Fox, and Bill Paxton were considered. Before Richard Attenborough was cast as John Hammond, Sean Connery, Clint Eastwood, Charlton Heston, Paul Newman, Marlon Brando, Ian Bannan, and John Pertwee were considered. Bob Hoskins, Jeffrey Jones, Geoffrey Rush, and Brian Cox were considered for Robert Muldoon.

Question: "What is the logic behind breeding a type of dinosaur that is absolutely terrifying?" Answer: Money. Revenue. That's incredibly entertaining for guests. What exhibits tend to be popular at zoos? Lions, tigers, bears, ESPECIALLY if they're feeding or howling; right? If there was a REAL Jurassic Park, and if you're part of the business development team, what are you going to advertise more, brontosauruses eating leaves in a sloth-like manner or velociraptors at feeding time, lunging at their prey and tearing goats apart? When you go to an amusement park, what rides have big lines? Mostly, the terrifying ones; right? Also, as far as not holding age against an older movie, I find it to be quite the opposite. As a 40-year-old, I find that I hold the NEW movies' ages against them, valuing more meaning, elaborate story-telling and dialogue as well as practical effects over superheroes and lifeless computer graphics. To each their own, I suppose! 💁

21:05 You can tell, Nedry did a few _practice_ runs to see how long it would take him to get from the _command_ center to the _dock._ They were under _dry_ weather conditions, though. In the rain, those results don't _count._ Well now, Nedry's _lost._ He can't find his way to the dock _or_ back to the command center. Oh. And there are _dinosaurs_ loose, including _carnivores._

My favorite movie as a kid and I skipped school to watch it over again

Hi Shai, your first time watching the first Jurassic Park, this is a big deal!🙂The first realistic looking dinosaur film!🤯I nice blend of CGI and practical mechanical dinosaurs.🏆DNA has a very short lifespan, so cloning dinosaurs that way is impossible. However, cloning DNA can help preserve endangered species. An interactive CD-Rom? They should have it at Radio Shack or Circuit City right, yay!😀The sequels do have something to offer with each film. Great reactions to your first Jurassic Park film, Shai!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Because of this movie everyone thinks "raptor" means "bird of prey" but they made that up to make it seem cooler. Turns out it is latin for "thief or robber". Side note: the dinosaurs they based the raptors on in this was Deinonychus. Velociraptors were much smaller and they think mostly just stole eggs from nests to survive, hence: raptor

"Why do we have these deadly dinosaurs in a theme park?" Why do we have deadly animals in a zoo where they're only separated from people by electrified fencing in some cases? Jurassic Park is a ride-through zoo.

Fun Fact: During the surprise rex appearance in the Visitor Center, when the rex bites down on the raptor, the raptor disappears for a single frame

The message in the movie is don't mess with something that you don't understand and if you want to be famous for doing something that's never been done before, it doesn't mean you should do it.

After the summer we've had, stories about people getting killed by rich men's hubris just hit different. This film is a perennial classic, everyone should see it at least once. Thoroughly recommend watching at least the other two Park movies, and then the first one or two Jurassic World films too.

14:11 "Well the _question,_ here, is how can you know _anything_ about an extinct ecosystem, and therefore, how could you assume that you could ever _control_ it?" And this is an _especially_ good point that I think the movie could've done more to address. Modern-day humans tend to be estranged from this fact, but in the _wild,_ every animal survives as part of a _food_ web. That isn't just how it is _now._ That's _always_ how it's been. That was how it was with dinosaurs, _too._ The circumstances under which intact _fossils_ form are _incredibly_ rare. More than 95% of the animal species in any given ecosystem never get _exposed_ to them. So we can be sure that more than 95% of the dinosaur species that died out left no _remains._ That includes about 95% of any given _food_ web. Now when dinosaurs went extinct, it wasn't just _them._ It was the entire _food_ web that _every_ given dinosaur survived as part of. Those food webs are all _gone,_ now. The entire _ecosystem_ that the dinosaurs survived as part of is has faded by now; an entire _ecosystem_ we can't ever hope to see more than _5%_ of.

I was born a year before this came out and grew up watching it on VHS. I love watching people's reaction videos to the JP franchise

This movie was at one point and time the highest grossing box office movie to be released even besting Schindler’s list in box office sales and it’s easy to see why as the practical effects continue to look good 30 years later

The weird thing about Jaws is: The more recent the movies, the worse the sharks get.

Lol, I just looked it up and Joseph Mazzello, as an adult now, jokes in an interview that his first on-screen kiss (and probably first kiss ever) was technically with Sam Neill in the CPR scene. 😆They were trying to fake it because of the awkwardness but in the end, with consent, did actual mouth-to-mouth. Acting is a weird job to have... Your reaction is great, that's something else that had never occurred to me.

Instant classic; I still remember seeing this in the theater. It was nothing we'd ever experienced before

The reason for not wanting humans to kill the dinos, is why people hated the acrobatics in the sequel, without realizing it.

The opening scene offers such a great contrast between Muldoon and Masrani (the owner of Jurassic World, and who was entrusted with said park as Hammond's last wish before he died). Where Muldoon doesn't hesitate to shoot the raptor as soon as one of his guys is in danger, Masrani is hesitant to deploy live ammunition ("we have $26 million invested in that asset. We can't just kill it").

I had to pause when you said "Could you imagine coming across dinosaur bones?" I haven't found those, but DO have quite a Bit of Sea Fossils from the Devonian period. Find them left and right at a River I fish in my city.

There was a sequel book called The Lost World and a second movie that was butchered and the ending re-written. The third film basically took all the fans' demand for the absent parts from the books to be filmed and included (the edits and retcons to the brilliant novels were typical Hollywood and fair inexcusable). JP3 was a nonplot excuse for those scenes to be viewable, albeit out of original story context. The jurassic world franchise is the disney star wars brand jurassic Park. Same origin material but done long after the author had passed away.

this movie still holds up really well far as effects etc., animal effects still look so believable compared to dino movies of years past.

First video I watched from you, you are very endearing. Don't need to be loud and exaggerated in your reactions. Fantastic!

Great reaction! Yeah that’s how I felt about sitting down to watch Breaking Bad…turned out to be one of the best things I’ve ever seen!

First time I ever saw someone suggest the Triceratops could be pregnant. Interesting theory! - and they wouldn't be checking for that, because they've been told it's impossible...

They were only able to breed the dinosaurs whos blood could be found. They were essentially at the mercy of a mosquitoes taste buds. 😂
