My friend saw it when she was 5 or 6. Her grandma thought she was showing her The Land Before Time, but she somehow got it mixed up with Jurassic Park😂 When she realized her mistake a little while later, my friend was loving every second of it and wasn’t scared at all. She was apparently rooting for the dinosaurs rather than the people.
My mom-3 weeks out from giving birth to my little brother-went to the movie opening weekend by herself and then took my sister(8) and me(6) the next day. She wanted to make sure she knew when to cover our eyes. 😂❤ She always did that with us as kids. I love that she knew these movies would be special and knew how much we wanted to see them, but was responsible and made sure we didn’t see the scary bits.
You’re an incredible father. You have your priorities in the right place. Seeing your posts makes me smile but your kid is always the number one priority.
It doesn't matter how often I've seen Jurassic Park, that scene in the maintenance bunker when the Raptor shows up behind Ellie will always get me with the jumpscare. Side notes: The dinosaur sounds in this movie were made by combining sounds made by living animals and everyday objects. The Tyrannosaurus rex, affectionately known as Rexy, was a mix of elephant calf vocalizations (roar, snarls and growls) and a dog playing with a rope toy (shaking the Gallimimus to death). The Dilophosaurus was a mix of hawk, swan, howler monkey and rattlesnake sounds. The adult Raptors were a mix of a walrus chest roar and dolphin mating scream, while the hatchling was a mix of owlet and fox kit sounds. The Brachiosaurus vocalizations were slowed down donkey brays, while the sneeze was a mix of a fire hydrant and a whale breathing through its blowhole(s). The Gallimimus's chief sound effect was made using the recorded calls of a female horse in heat. A good portion of this movie was shot on the Hawaiian island of Kauai. Whenever I hear Hammond ask "Who's hungry?", my first reaction every time is "Not after hearing the Raptors rip the cow apart." Lego released 30th anniversary sets in honor of Jurassic Park and the one I have is based on Dennis Nedry's encounter with the Dilophosaurus.
Imagine seeing this as a kid in theaters in the 90s. Talk about being mind blown. I was obsessed with this film for months afterwards. Surprisingly, there really aren't as many CGi effects as you would think. Much of it is practical with lots of puppeteering involved
It was way better watching it in the drive-in where the warm summer breeze and the crickets chirping really enhanced the ambience and made it feel like you where actually there on Isla Nublar.
Yes! In the T-Rex paddock attack, they had real problems filming as the rain tanks would soak the animatronic dinosaur, causing it to shudder around and breakdown, so in between takes they would have to throw giant beach towels on it to try an absorb all the water. Also, during pre-production, they intended to do everything with stop-motion, but some of the crew who were messing around with computers (early early days of vfx) did a dino animation test and snuck it into a viewing, even though the were told not to, and Stan Winston (who was the stop-motion animator I believe), when he saw the cgi footage, remarked "I think I'm out of a job."
The screenplay was written by Michael Crichton and David Koepp, based on the novel by Michael Crichton. Several changes were made in the screenplay vs the novel. Obviously, some scenes were cut that were in the book. Also, in the book, Alan Grant was a professor and Ellie Sattler was one of his graduate students. There was no romantic relationship between the two, being a teacher / student relationship only. In fact, he even tells Timmy this when Timmy asks if he and Ellie are going to get married. This explanation also explains why there was a kid at the dig site at the beginning of the movie - he was the child of one of the graduate students on the dig. By the way, Crichton was one of the great writers of our time. Besides the novels for "Jurassic Park" and "Jurassic Park II" (which I feel far exceeds the sequel movie), he was also responsible for the novel that the movies "Andromeda Strain", "The Great Train Robbery", "Disclosure", "Coma", "Rising Sun", "Congo", "Sphere", and many others. He also created the tv shows "E.R." and "Westworld" (which was a movie first). And he was responsible for the screenplay for "Twister". He was a medical doctor before becoming a writer. He was a prolific writer, and quite a few of his novels have not (yet) been made into movies. Sadly, he passed away in 2008.
Everyone famously talks about Velociraptors opening doors...what about Dilophosaurus Grand The Autoing Nedry? There was no room in that jeep for it turn and face the open door.
@@krisfrederick5001 I like to think that Nedry was out for a hot second after hitting his head on the door, and the Dilophosaurus just got in through the open door
The most stunning part of Jurassic Park is how well it still holds up visually, so many decades later, despite all the advances in CGI and effects. Seeing it in the theater, I think it was the first movie put out in Dolby surround sound, you could hear the T-Rex stomping up behind you and it was terrifying.
I actually didn't know the situation with your son until this video. I was in your son's shoes when I was a kid. I have a great dad, but him and my mom divorced when I was very young. At first, I got to see my dad every weekend. Then, it was every other weekend. At one point, my mom moved us across the country, and I only saw my dad for a month, once a year. But no matter what I was doing with Dad, I enjoyed every minute of it, as I'm sure your son does. Some of my favorite memories and lessons growing up came from my dad, even though I wasn't with him most of the time. The point of my comment, as I haven't even gotten to the movie part of the video, is to encourage you. You may not get to hang out with your son as much as you'd like, but you're still making a big impact on him. And as he grows up, your bond will only increase. Alright, onto Jurassic Park!
Aw, that’s what I was gonna say too. The fact that it was less frequent than normal can also make the time together even more special. For me, it’s not the same at all, but I did have grandparents who lived across the country. It sucked. 😒 BUT when we got to go visit or whenever they came to visit us, it was sooo exciting and fun for us kids. I always appreciated that time too just because of how rare it was. If the effort is made, it will be appreciated and cherished a million-fold. ❤👏🏻
This is my absolute favorite movie of all time! I saw it in the theaters 14 times when it was first released and then again when they re-released it in 3-D with my daughter. I will never get tired of seeing this film. Thank you for reacting to it! I hope some day that you do get to watch it with your son as well. 😊 ❤🦕🦖
I saw this movie with my kids on opening night in a packed theater and needless to say we were all blown away by it! The John Williams score is absolutely beautiful and the scene where you see the first Brachiosaurus still gives me goosebumps 30 years later! My kids and I would go on to see this movie another 5 times in the theater. Jurassic Park is one of my all time favorite movies and will forever hold a special place in my ❤ None of the movies that have followed will ever come close to the magic of the OG!!
"I think we're out of a job." "You mean 'extinct' ?" Not just a (great) line from the movie, but an actual exchange between an old-school model maker and a CGI artist behind the scenes. Allegedly.
Your son always comes first. I took my 10 year old twins to see this in the theater when it came out. They loved it. Right now my 4 yr old great-great-nephew loves the movies so much that he has my collectors box of the original trilogy on dvd. It was filmed primarily in Hawaii.
I saw this in the theater on my 15th birthday. The special effects were incredible for the time.i’ll always remember that day because that was how a friend got me out of the house for my surprise birthday party.
22:12 - every time I see this, I can't help imagining how T-Rex had to walk to make those. Either she hopped like a rabbit or she hopped from one leg to the other with significant pauses in between.
This was filmed at least in part at Kualoa Ranch in Oahu in Hawaii. We went there last year for a family vacation and the sweeping landscapes are truly as amazing as you see on screen. We even stopped for a picnic in the valley where the "flocking" scene was filmed!
Fun fact: Sam L Jackson was supposed to get a chase/death scene, but a real life hurricane destroyed the set in Hawaii where the jungle scenes were filmed.
I read the book during the 1991 war to liberate Kuwait. Book publishers sent boxes of unsellable copies of many new books for the soldiers. When the movie came out I had been back in the US for a year and then sent to Germany, where I saw it in a US military cinema.
The actor who plays the little kid in the park is none other than Joseph Mazzello, who plays our boy Eugene Sledge in The Pacific! What separates this original movie as against the sequels is that there was some reverence and respect shown to the dinosaurs as actual living creatures in a sense, as opposed to the more generic monster-movie popcorn action vibes of some of the sequel films. Personally I don’t really care, dinosaurs are cool. Growing up, a lot of us had a “favorite dinosaur” and we’d have our own reasons why. When we stopped this kind of discourse is when we started going down as a society imo 😂 The master John Williams also comes out another banger of a musical score.
I had an epiphany about this movie a few days ago. In the beginning of the movie, Alan is asserting that dinosaurs have more in common with birds than with reptiles. Dr. Hammond says they used frog DNA to patch the dinosaur DNA. Frogs are neither bird nor reptile. I propose chicken or duck DNA should've been used to patch the DNA gaps for two reasons. 1: it better fits with Dr. Grant's hypothesis, as well as our understanding of dinosaur evolution and 2: chickens and ducks specifically experience sex changes from female to male. Female birds have only one functioning ovary, and the other one is underdeveloped and inert. If the functional ovary is damaged by injury or infection, and stops producing sex hormones, the bird may undergo a complete sex change. Plumage, call, and behavior change, and the inert ovary can develop into a testes and produce sperm. It just would've made more sense in the context of the story.
It was awe inspiring when it first came out and I believe it still holds up. The first dinosaur that they saw was so huge and beautiful! That and then the shot at the lake and there are lots of different types of dinosaurs in and around the lake was gorgeous!
You keep asking what caused the problems with the park. Was it Nedry sabotaging the computer systems? Was it the storm? It was the hubris of human beings. In the book, the park is already WILDLY out of control by the time our heroes arrive. But only Malcolm notices the signs all around them. In the movie, he just pontificates without any evidence. Everyone else, including the scientists and techs who run the place, *haven't even noticed.* The book STARTS with a little girl on the mainland encountering a dinosaur. It gives the story a very different perspective when the reader knows things have already gone very very wrong from the start. I really wish they'd kept those bits in, because it makes the movie essentially a very different story than the one being told in the book.
I was 7 years old when this movie came out in '93 and this movie just blew my mind. It was fun, and funny, and fascinating, and my first horror movie. I had all the Kenner toys and the backpack. I'll never forget leaving the theater on opening weekend and seeing folks go to the ticket counter to buy a ticket for the next showing. I've never seen anything like it. It really captured everyone's imagination.
I saw this movie in theaters 30 years ago when i was 2 years old. It was such a transformative movie for my childhood. Ive seen it so many times I've memorized every line. I recently went to see it again in theaters for its 30th anniversary rerelease to the big screen and it was phenomenal. You know its a good movie when it still makes children leave the theater in tears when the T-Rex makes her first appearance lol
Really love your channel man. You seem like a really down to earth and good dude. Your son is obviously priority lol but keep it up man hard to find good reactors and you are definitely one of the few! From san diego california.
I think it's interesting people haven't watched this movie in 2024 but I guess not all people interested about certain movies. But I'm glad we have internet and are able to enjoy watching others enjoy this classic movie I watched over and over.
This film defined my chidhood, and it resulted in me spending time with someone who would be come my best friend. We actually just saw this again with a live orchestra playing along to the movie over the summer. Hands down my favorite movie of all time.
The three Jurassic Park movies are together, and the three Jurassic World movies are together. You don't necessarily need to see the Jurassic Park ones to enjoy the Jurassic World movies. However the first Jurassic Park gives the World movies more context. Glad you're finally starting the series. This one is my favorite movie and it had a huge influence over my interests as a child into adulthood.
The only reason why his grandkids are at the park. Is because their parents are getting divorced. So they were to spend time with their grandfather while they settled there divorced. So that is the only reason why Lex and Tim were here.
The T Rex attack blew my mind. At that time we had never seen anything like it. It was so real. We had never seen dinosaurs look so real. So lifelike. This movie is perfection. The CGI looks better than modern movies today.
I'll NEVER forget watching this as a young lad, sat on the couch while dad adjusted the color on our old tube-type TV. "shoot her" was and still is etched into my brain, even though I didn't understand at the time that people were dying in the movie it was just such a memorable movie opening. And my favorite memory of watching Jurassic Park will always be the moment my dad showed us the "slow-motion" effect on his VCR so we could see frame by frame how the CG dinosaur was chasing the jeep. I can so so so vividly remember watching each fram slowly click into place and just being fascinated that people had worked together to create something so beautiful and lifelike. The fluid motions, the incredible sound design and acting all complimentary to an excellent script adapted from a book I've still never read lol. I just love this film so much it's one of those things I'll always remember about my dad once he's gone. He really showed me the power of creativity after curiosity. That being said, it's easy to hate most of Disney's rehashed BS with all the remakes reboots and rejects. Just stop already. Hire someone with ideas. Real, original ideas 😂
This movie set a new standard for special effects when it was released back in 93. I was 11 when it came out and I lost count of how many times I saw it in theaters but man oh man it was incredible and those damn Velociraptors were terrifying because they were smart.
I was 9 when this came out. The papers had mini stories in, there were adverts everywhere, everything was dino mad. We were on holidays in Cornwall with my grandparents and went to the cinema down there to see it as it came out. The screams in the cinema were hilarious. I was obsessed from that moment!
Great reactions - I saw it three times with the GF when it came out - it was mind-blowing, and I reckon the special effects still hold up 30 years later (good mix of practical and CGI).
Jurassic Park came out around when I was born so I didn't see it until I was 8 or so but I got to see it at a drive in theater which was such a neat experience. We were in my dad's truck in the very back row up against the tree line and we had to huddle in the cab because a thunderstorm rolled in but the movie kept playing- watching the scene with the T Rex and the jeep through a rainy windshield and thunder rumbling is something I'll never forget! (Also the Stan Winston School channel has some really cool behind the scenes videos of the animatronics and puppets they used in the movie, definitely worth a watch!)
Watched this in a cinema when it came out in 93. I was already 19 (yes I'm old lol), but it was still a terrifying experience! xD T T-Rex scene made me fear for my life, and I loved every second of it. :)
This was my first movie in theaters when I was 6 years old. Forever a favorite of mine. SHOOOOOOT HEERRRRR is a line I've used so many times in my life lmfao. Mostly for gaming.
This movie was so epic I saw it 6 times that summer as a kid. It was a brilliant use of CGI and animatronics which is a lost art. Literally feeling the steps of the T-Rex, as the water ripples is a cinematic experience you can never forget...I already LOVED dinosaurs. But then this...
25:00 What I love about the whole T-Rex scene is the lack of music. It has so much tension just relying on the sounds of the T-Rex and whatnot! 1993 I was 14 years old, we had this little local Twin Cinema in my town that I saw this movie on opening day. It was an afternoon showing actually with my dad and brother. Let me tell you man, the whole movie blew us away! Such an amazing film for sure! And can you believe it, the whole movie only had 6 1/2 minutes of CGI animation in it? The rest were all either anamatronics or stop motion puppets! But still with what little they could do with the animation was groundbreaking at the time. The movie was actually filmed in Hawaii, and nope, no CGI backdrops back then. We didn't have the tech to do such lush jungles and trees to be that photo-real like that back then.
My girlfriend and I went to see it in the theater the second weekend it was open and it was literally standing room only in the theater. We got the last two actual seats and they had people standing in the aisles. It was a total fire code violation but nobody cared.
"He's an archeologist" Nope, he's a paleontologist. Archeologists dig up human history and prehistory, paleontologist dig up dinosaurs. It's a commonly made mistake.
Fun fact the fear the kids showed when the t rex attacked them in the car was genuine, the rain falling was making the robotics mess up on the t rex meaning the person who handled the robot couldnt contorl it at times.im pretty sure it wasnt supposed to break the glass
Fun fact, velociraptors are actually about the size of a turkey or a large cat. The "velociraptors" in this movie are actually closer to utahraptor or deinonychus. They just used the name velociraptor because it sounded cooler. Other than that, all the depictions of the dinosaurs were very accurate for the time. Of course our knowledge had grown since then, and we know that most of the dinosaurs depicted would have had very early versions of feathers, called proto-feathers, that are very similar to the kind of feathers emus have on their bodies. A lot of people think that takes away from the fear factor of dinosaurs, but honestly if you look up current mock ups of what t rex might have looked like, like the one in the indianapolis children's museum, it looks even more terrifying in my opinion. And dont worry about us man! You focus on being a good dad, and we'll be content with whatever you have the time to put out!
This is the first video of yours I've seen. First off, as a child of divorce, I know your son appreciates the time you spend with him regardless of it being during one of these videos or not. But yes you should definitely make sure you take care of your relationship before the growth of your channel. As far as the channel goes, I wish you all the best of luck! I watched a couple more videos and I can already say that it's fun seeing your reactions to stuff! Keep at it man!
And his son can cherish this videos of his father and him as well when his an adult. I cherish every picture, voice recording, video, letter, postcard of my father (RIP). Everytime I'm cleaning or organizing I find any of them and remember and feel the love 💜💜
You are by far my favorite reactor! You get all the details, the implications, you're curious, and Scottish - just like John "Spared No Expense" Hammond. "...tried to play God...." Yes. If you're a reader, the book is one of my top 5 favorite books of all time, it was written by a doctor from Harvard, hence the heavy lean into commercialization of science and morality, with a touch of legal ethics. The year this movie came out, Dr Chricton was the 3rd highest paid entertainer in the world (behind, George Lucas and Oprah Winfrey) because he put out the Jurassic Park movie, the ER TV show, and the Jurassic Park book...all in the same year
We miss our Louis (Lewis?) but speaking as an old (but cool and hip) granny, I think you have a good chance of becoming the most popular eligible bachelor in the USA. Just be yourself, don’t change a thing, put out more content, include rom coms, and the love letters will fly in. 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰
I remember when this movie came out - I was working at Universal Studios at the time so we got in free and it was so nice to have dolby surround sound...
I was about 7 years old when I watched this movie in theaters. Mom and Dad took me because I loved dinosaurs. I remember barely blinking the whole movie, the raptor nightmares for a few nights, and how much I simply adored this movie.
This was the very first movie I was ever taken to. To this day it’s still one of my favorites and the book is also amazing. I’m glad you’re visiting them. As others have said, your kid comes first. We are happy to get you when we do and I don’t think any of us would demand any more at the cost of spending time with him. The movies aren’t going anywhere and we will wait for one of our favorite TH-cam dads to watch movies and shows with. 👍🏻
Whenever I see a video come from your channel I’ll watch it. You don’t ever need to apologize for spending time with your son. Got your priorities straight for sure
family should always come first! well done, sir! and all of the outdoor shots were filmed in Hawaii, if im not mistaken. i was it in the cinema when it first came out. the surround sound was incredible! and dont apologize for swearing. they WERE FUCKING AWESOME! 😁 as for the paleontologists being out of work, i dont think so. what hammond's team created werent true dinosaurs. their DNA was mixed with frog DNA to fill in the missing gaps in the genetic code. really glad you enjoyed the movie! hope to see you watch more of my favorites like Alien ans Aliens along with the Thing and Terminator 1&2. cheers, mate!
Yeah, brother. Started climbing trees as a little kid. Soon shifted to climbing rocks, then mixed in ice climbing. Kept at it for decades. Lots of good climbers come from your country. Mad lads.
I saw it the day it came out...waited in line for about 4 hours...LOL! They ended up adding it into a few extra theaters, because there were so many people there to see it. In the early ads, they hadn't shown any dinosaurs, building the anticipation of seeing them for the first time. It was amazing! It was fascinating and scary at the same time. My friend said, during the T-Rex attack on the kids car, it's Spielberg, he won't hurt the kids. All I kept thinking about was poor Alex Kintner in Jaws...LOL! The movie was definitely a roller coaster of emotions, but loved it so much!!
I'm devastated for Lewis that he's missed out on one of the great movies of our time he would have LOVED this. However I understand just would have been cool to see him in awe of this movie and his unreal reactions. Have now joined your Patreon BTW 👍👍 your channel rocks.
I love the stories from the set with the Mechanical T-Rex they made. It would short out because of all the water being sprayed, so it would move around crazy. also I remember something about the only way to fix a certain thing someone had to climb into its mouth, ya noooooooooooooo thanks
Opening weekend 1993 I saw this, was 11 at the time. Most magical experience I've ever had at the cinema :) You said a couple times that the CGI must gave been amazing at the time... and the thing is, they still are. There's a couple bits that are outdated now, but JP's effects stand up to most modern movies. An example, is at 13:02, the big wide reveal of the landscape... that scene is 95% CGI. The only thing real in that scene, is the grass and the trees mid-screen. All the trees and mountains in the distance, the sky, the small trees in the foreground, and the water... all CGI. Even the people standing in the shot were pasted in using CGI. And the rex attack scene: The rex stepping out of the fence and roaring... that entire bit, the cars, fence, rain, everything, was CGI. And the bit that wasn't shown in your video, when the rex has flipped the car, the shot goes to a wide shot, and you see her step up onto the car, and bit at the wheel... again, everything in that shot, the car, rain, ground, background, everything, was CGI.
I saw Jurassic Park when it first came out. The sound was incredible and I watched it just like you (your arm movements) blocking the view, and sometimes just looking at the top corner of the screen. 😉😁
I saw this at the cinema when it came out. Unlike nowadays, you just got one trailer, at the cinema. You didn’t know it was coming, and the effects!!! Just blew our minds! 😮 Still holds up today. Still the best film in the franchise imo ❤ You & Lewis come first obvs!!! ❤ I am still hoping for more GoT reactions uploaded though, when you have time, for us non Patreons - was loving those ❤
THis movie came out in a special effects sweet spot that lasted about 4 years in the 1990s, when CGI was new and effective, but so expensive that they only gave it to master directors like Spielberg and James Cameron. During this 4 year window, they would still use practical effects AUGMENTED by CGI, instead of replacing them with CGI entirely, like they do now (cheaper). You end up with movies like Terminator 2, Titanic, the Abyss, and Jurassic Park where it feels so very real that you're immersed in the movie. In fact, for Titanic, James Cameron built a FULL SCALE replica of the Titanic itself for filming and flooded entire rooms with water, as opposed to the current way of just using CGI. They eye can tell the difference. The eye can tell. Modern CGI, while cool, is missing an element of realism that you're barely aware of. I had to walk out of the theater during Transformers 5, because the movie was just so dumb, that even giant fighting CGI robots using katana swords couldnt keep my interest-- and I went into Transformers 5 with the lowest of expectations ---that's how ineffective CGI can be if overused or misused by an incompetent director.
I saw this at the cinema as a kid in 93. Will always remember how, when the t-rex ate that lawyer, other parents were taking their young kids out the cinema! It was only rated PG back then. This was the 2nd film I can remember seeing at a cinema back then, the 1st being Robin Hood Prince of Thieves - another good film you need to add to your watch list if you havnt already.
"They're just standing there watching?" What did you expect them to do, approach the T-Rex and say "Pick on someone your own size!" It's a fucking 20 foot tall T-Rex, man.
Cheers Kev! Know that we understand the difficulty of scheduling things around the short time you get to spend with Lewis. HE COMES FIRST. Hanging out with your son and building a strong relationship with him is by far the priority - speaking for myself, I'm perfectly happy to get the solo watches, you're fun to hang out with as you experience the movies/shows I'm already familiar with. For Lewis - You'll get to be the go-to guy when it's the movie round at quiz night! The secret weapon in the young team, with all the 'old' knowledge. Raise a pint Kev, I'll see you next time.
I was so blown away when it first came out in the cinema I went to see it 7 times! The dolby surround in the cinema was unreal when the first Brachiosaurus came back down after standing up and the T-rex roaring. The sound and vibrations were awesome.
Hey bro, I have my son on weekends, and that time is precious. Our boy comes first man we get it, upload when you can we will watch it, keep up the good work 👍
![โรงเรียนห้ามรัก โดนจับได้ตาย...!! [เอิร์นไดเม่]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/4u02Sbr556Q/mqdefault.jpg)
Your kid comes first. Always. Whatever you can give us, we will appreciate. With that being said, excited to see your reaction to this classic.
I love that you prioritize quality time with your son over the Channel. Thumbs up
Spend time with your son as well, he is WAY more important than us. Take your time with the releases, we are not going anywhere. 😊❤
Saw this movie when I was 10 years old. It changed my life, and sent me on a trajectory to eventually work in the Film Industry. Such a great movie. 😊
Same tho I think I was 7 or 9 I saw it with my dad before he became a right arse, trex scared the crao out of me and I hid under my coat 😂good times
My friend saw it when she was 5 or 6. Her grandma thought she was showing her The Land Before Time, but she somehow got it mixed up with Jurassic Park😂 When she realized her mistake a little while later, my friend was loving every second of it and wasn’t scared at all. She was apparently rooting for the dinosaurs rather than the people.
My mom-3 weeks out from giving birth to my little brother-went to the movie opening weekend by herself and then took my sister(8) and me(6) the next day. She wanted to make sure she knew when to cover our eyes. 😂❤ She always did that with us as kids. I love that she knew these movies would be special and knew how much we wanted to see them, but was responsible and made sure we didn’t see the scary bits.
You’re an incredible father. You have your priorities in the right place. Seeing your posts makes me smile but your kid is always the number one priority.
It doesn't matter how often I've seen Jurassic Park, that scene in the maintenance bunker when the Raptor shows up behind Ellie will always get me with the jumpscare.
Side notes:
The dinosaur sounds in this movie were made by combining sounds made by living animals and everyday objects.
The Tyrannosaurus rex, affectionately known as Rexy, was a mix of elephant calf vocalizations (roar, snarls and growls) and a dog playing with a rope toy (shaking the Gallimimus to death).
The Dilophosaurus was a mix of hawk, swan, howler monkey and rattlesnake sounds.
The adult Raptors were a mix of a walrus chest roar and dolphin mating scream, while the hatchling was a mix of owlet and fox kit sounds.
The Brachiosaurus vocalizations were slowed down donkey brays, while the sneeze was a mix of a fire hydrant and a whale breathing through its blowhole(s).
The Gallimimus's chief sound effect was made using the recorded calls of a female horse in heat.
A good portion of this movie was shot on the Hawaiian island of Kauai.
Whenever I hear Hammond ask "Who's hungry?", my first reaction every time is "Not after hearing the Raptors rip the cow apart."
Lego released 30th anniversary sets in honor of Jurassic Park and the one I have is based on Dennis Nedry's encounter with the Dilophosaurus.
Imagine seeing this as a kid in theaters in the 90s. Talk about being mind blown. I was obsessed with this film for months afterwards. Surprisingly, there really aren't as many CGi effects as you would think. Much of it is practical with lots of puppeteering involved
It was way better watching it in the drive-in where the warm summer breeze and the crickets chirping really enhanced the ambience and made it feel like you where actually there on Isla Nublar.
It was. I was 12. Amazing movie.
Same. I had my feet up on the movie seat because I was scared
Yes! In the T-Rex paddock attack, they had real problems filming as the rain tanks would soak the animatronic dinosaur, causing it to shudder around and breakdown, so in between takes they would have to throw giant beach towels on it to try an absorb all the water. Also, during pre-production, they intended to do everything with stop-motion, but some of the crew who were messing around with computers (early early days of vfx) did a dino animation test and snuck it into a viewing, even though the were told not to, and Stan Winston (who was the stop-motion animator I believe), when he saw the cgi footage, remarked "I think I'm out of a job."
The screenplay was written by Michael Crichton and David Koepp, based on the novel by Michael Crichton. Several changes were made in the screenplay vs the novel. Obviously, some scenes were cut that were in the book. Also, in the book, Alan Grant was a professor and Ellie Sattler was one of his graduate students. There was no romantic relationship between the two, being a teacher / student relationship only. In fact, he even tells Timmy this when Timmy asks if he and Ellie are going to get married. This explanation also explains why there was a kid at the dig site at the beginning of the movie - he was the child of one of the graduate students on the dig.
By the way, Crichton was one of the great writers of our time. Besides the novels for "Jurassic Park" and "Jurassic Park II" (which I feel far exceeds the sequel movie), he was also responsible for the novel that the movies "Andromeda Strain", "The Great Train Robbery", "Disclosure", "Coma", "Rising Sun", "Congo", "Sphere", and many others. He also created the tv shows "E.R." and "Westworld" (which was a movie first). And he was responsible for the screenplay for "Twister". He was a medical doctor before becoming a writer. He was a prolific writer, and quite a few of his novels have not (yet) been made into movies. Sadly, he passed away in 2008.
I grew up reading books from my parents' bookshelves, and Michael Crichton was one of the authors on my dad's shelf.
Jeff Goldblum Jurassic Park: "Must go faster..." 🦖👀
Jeff Goldblum Independence Day: "Must GO FASTER!" 👽👀
Everyone famously talks about Velociraptors opening doors...what about Dilophosaurus Grand The Autoing Nedry? There was no room in that jeep for it turn and face the open door.
@@krisfrederick5001 I like to think that Nedry was out for a hot second after hitting his head on the door, and the Dilophosaurus just got in through the open door
glad someone else caught that. plus jeff's other sort of " must go faster" moment was "increase your rate of climb" in the third jurassic park :)
@@officialmonarchmusicohh good point. That is what I will think from now on. 😌
I didn’t know he repeated that line elsewhere 😆 awesome 👏🏻
As a dad who also only gets to see his kids at the weekend, completely understand you putting Lewis first. You absolutely have to.
The most stunning part of Jurassic Park is how well it still holds up visually, so many decades later, despite all the advances in CGI and effects. Seeing it in the theater, I think it was the first movie put out in Dolby surround sound, you could hear the T-Rex stomping up behind you and it was terrifying.
I actually didn't know the situation with your son until this video. I was in your son's shoes when I was a kid. I have a great dad, but him and my mom divorced when I was very young. At first, I got to see my dad every weekend. Then, it was every other weekend. At one point, my mom moved us across the country, and I only saw my dad for a month, once a year. But no matter what I was doing with Dad, I enjoyed every minute of it, as I'm sure your son does. Some of my favorite memories and lessons growing up came from my dad, even though I wasn't with him most of the time.
The point of my comment, as I haven't even gotten to the movie part of the video, is to encourage you. You may not get to hang out with your son as much as you'd like, but you're still making a big impact on him. And as he grows up, your bond will only increase.
Alright, onto Jurassic Park!
Aw, that’s what I was gonna say too. The fact that it was less frequent than normal can also make the time together even more special. For me, it’s not the same at all, but I did have grandparents who lived across the country. It sucked. 😒 BUT when we got to go visit or whenever they came to visit us, it was sooo exciting and fun for us kids. I always appreciated that time too just because of how rare it was. If the effort is made, it will be appreciated and cherished a million-fold. ❤👏🏻
This is my absolute favorite movie of all time! I saw it in the theaters 14 times when it was first released and then again when they re-released it in 3-D with my daughter. I will never get tired of seeing this film. Thank you for reacting to it! I hope some day that you do get to watch it with your son as well. 😊 ❤🦕🦖
Saw it in the cinema with my family the weekend it released. The greatest cinematic experience of my life.
Good on ya for prioritising being dad before the channel, we all have much love and respect for that mate. All the best from Australia my friend!
The sound the T Rex makes in these movies is without a doubt one of the greatest sounds ever put to film!
I saw this movie with my kids on opening night in a packed theater and needless to say we were all blown away by it! The John Williams score is absolutely beautiful and the scene where you see the first Brachiosaurus still gives me goosebumps 30 years later! My kids and I would go on to see this movie another 5 times in the theater. Jurassic Park is one of my all time favorite movies and will forever hold a special place in my ❤ None of the movies that have followed will ever come close to the magic of the OG!!
Jurassic Park sfx 30yrs ago is still better than half the garbage that comes out today
Agreed
Because it’s practical with CGI blending not pure CGI
@@AL-fl4jkThat really does make the difference!
"I think we're out of a job."
"You mean 'extinct' ?"
Not just a (great) line from the movie, but an actual exchange between an old-school model maker and a CGI artist behind the scenes. Allegedly.
“ ‘We’ll have a coupon day’ Piss off.” 😂😂😂
Your son always comes first.
I took my 10 year old twins to see this in the theater when it came out. They loved it. Right now my 4 yr old great-great-nephew loves the movies so much that he has my collectors box of the original trilogy on dvd.
It was filmed primarily in Hawaii.
Life will find the way - Jurassic Park
I saw this in the theater on my 15th birthday. The special effects were incredible for the time.i’ll always remember that day because that was how a friend got me out of the house for my surprise birthday party.
22:12 - every time I see this, I can't help imagining how T-Rex had to walk to make those. Either she hopped like a rabbit or she hopped from one leg to the other with significant pauses in between.
This was filmed at least in part at Kualoa Ranch in Oahu in Hawaii. We went there last year for a family vacation and the sweeping landscapes are truly as amazing as you see on screen. We even stopped for a picnic in the valley where the "flocking" scene was filmed!
Also Kauai
Also Kauai
Fun fact: Sam L Jackson was supposed to get a chase/death scene, but a real life hurricane destroyed the set in Hawaii where the jungle scenes were filmed.
Honestly, I think the way it was revealed here works better than another chase would have.
I read the book during the 1991 war to liberate Kuwait. Book publishers sent boxes of unsellable copies of many new books for the soldiers. When the movie came out I had been back in the US for a year and then sent to Germany, where I saw it in a US military cinema.
The actor who plays the little kid in the park is none other than Joseph Mazzello, who plays our boy Eugene Sledge in The Pacific!
What separates this original movie as against the sequels is that there was some reverence and respect shown to the dinosaurs as actual living creatures in a sense, as opposed to the more generic monster-movie popcorn action vibes of some of the sequel films.
Personally I don’t really care, dinosaurs are cool.
Growing up, a lot of us had a “favorite dinosaur” and we’d have our own reasons why. When we stopped this kind of discourse is when we started going down as a society imo 😂
The master John Williams also comes out another banger of a musical score.
He also plays John Deacon in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie
I had an epiphany about this movie a few days ago. In the beginning of the movie, Alan is asserting that dinosaurs have more in common with birds than with reptiles. Dr. Hammond says they used frog DNA to patch the dinosaur DNA. Frogs are neither bird nor reptile.
I propose chicken or duck DNA should've been used to patch the DNA gaps for two reasons. 1: it better fits with Dr. Grant's hypothesis, as well as our understanding of dinosaur evolution and 2: chickens and ducks specifically experience sex changes from female to male. Female birds have only one functioning ovary, and the other one is underdeveloped and inert. If the functional ovary is damaged by injury or infection, and stops producing sex hormones, the bird may undergo a complete sex change. Plumage, call, and behavior change, and the inert ovary can develop into a testes and produce sperm. It just would've made more sense in the context of the story.
It was awe inspiring when it first came out and I believe it still holds up. The first dinosaur that they saw was so huge and beautiful! That and then the shot at the lake and there are lots of different types of dinosaurs in and around the lake was gorgeous!
You keep asking what caused the problems with the park. Was it Nedry sabotaging the computer systems? Was it the storm?
It was the hubris of human beings.
In the book, the park is already WILDLY out of control by the time our heroes arrive. But only Malcolm notices the signs all around them. In the movie, he just pontificates without any evidence. Everyone else, including the scientists and techs who run the place, *haven't even noticed.* The book STARTS with a little girl on the mainland encountering a dinosaur. It gives the story a very different perspective when the reader knows things have already gone very very wrong from the start. I really wish they'd kept those bits in, because it makes the movie essentially a very different story than the one being told in the book.
I was 7 years old when this movie came out in '93 and this movie just blew my mind. It was fun, and funny, and fascinating, and my first horror movie. I had all the Kenner toys and the backpack. I'll never forget leaving the theater on opening weekend and seeing folks go to the ticket counter to buy a ticket for the next showing. I've never seen anything like it. It really captured everyone's imagination.
I saw this movie in theaters 30 years ago when i was 2 years old. It was such a transformative movie for my childhood. Ive seen it so many times I've memorized every line. I recently went to see it again in theaters for its 30th anniversary rerelease to the big screen and it was phenomenal. You know its a good movie when it still makes children leave the theater in tears when the T-Rex makes her first appearance lol
I was 6 years old 💜
Really love your channel man. You seem like a really down to earth and good dude. Your son is obviously priority lol but keep it up man hard to find good reactors and you are definitely one of the few! From san diego california.
I think it's interesting people haven't watched this movie in 2024 but I guess not all people interested about certain movies. But I'm glad we have internet and are able to enjoy watching others enjoy this classic movie I watched over and over.
Can't imagine ignoring a classic about dinosaurs that everyone loves for 30 years.
This film defined my chidhood, and it resulted in me spending time with someone who would be come my best friend. We actually just saw this again with a live orchestra playing along to the movie over the summer. Hands down my favorite movie of all time.
I saw this in the theater opening weekend and was absolutely blown away. Amazing that it still holds up after all this time!
The three Jurassic Park movies are together, and the three Jurassic World movies are together. You don't necessarily need to see the Jurassic Park ones to enjoy the Jurassic World movies. However the first Jurassic Park gives the World movies more context. Glad you're finally starting the series. This one is my favorite movie and it had a huge influence over my interests as a child into adulthood.
To answer your question of where it was filmed (at least the parts on Jurassic Park island), it was filmed in Hawaii!
The only reason why his grandkids are at the park. Is because their parents are getting divorced. So they were to spend time with their grandfather while they settled there divorced. So that is the only reason why Lex and Tim were here.
They literally say this in the movie.
The T Rex attack blew my mind. At that time we had never seen anything like it. It was so real. We had never seen dinosaurs look so real. So lifelike. This movie is perfection. The CGI looks better than modern movies today.
John Williams 🐐
I'll NEVER forget watching this as a young lad, sat on the couch while dad adjusted the color on our old tube-type TV. "shoot her" was and still is etched into my brain, even though I didn't understand at the time that people were dying in the movie it was just such a memorable movie opening. And my favorite memory of watching Jurassic Park will always be the moment my dad showed us the "slow-motion" effect on his VCR so we could see frame by frame how the CG dinosaur was chasing the jeep. I can so so so vividly remember watching each fram slowly click into place and just being fascinated that people had worked together to create something so beautiful and lifelike. The fluid motions, the incredible sound design and acting all complimentary to an excellent script adapted from a book I've still never read lol. I just love this film so much it's one of those things I'll always remember about my dad once he's gone. He really showed me the power of creativity after curiosity. That being said, it's easy to hate most of Disney's rehashed BS with all the remakes reboots and rejects. Just stop already. Hire someone with ideas. Real, original ideas 😂
This movie set a new standard for special effects when it was released back in 93. I was 11 when it came out and I lost count of how many times I saw it in theaters but man oh man it was incredible and those damn Velociraptors were terrifying because they were smart.
I was 9 when this came out. The papers had mini stories in, there were adverts everywhere, everything was dino mad. We were on holidays in Cornwall with my grandparents and went to the cinema down there to see it as it came out. The screams in the cinema were hilarious. I was obsessed from that moment!
Great reactions - I saw it three times with the GF when it came out - it was mind-blowing, and I reckon the special effects still hold up 30 years later (good mix of practical and CGI).
Jurassic Park came out around when I was born so I didn't see it until I was 8 or so but I got to see it at a drive in theater which was such a neat experience. We were in my dad's truck in the very back row up against the tree line and we had to huddle in the cab because a thunderstorm rolled in but the movie kept playing- watching the scene with the T Rex and the jeep through a rainy windshield and thunder rumbling is something I'll never forget!
(Also the Stan Winston School channel has some really cool behind the scenes videos of the animatronics and puppets they used in the movie, definitely worth a watch!)
Yes, please do all the Mission Impossible movies. I have a strong feeling you will love them!
Watched this in a cinema when it came out in 93. I was already 19 (yes I'm old lol), but it was still a terrifying experience! xD T T-Rex scene made me fear for my life, and I loved every second of it. :)
This was my first movie in theaters when I was 6 years old. Forever a favorite of mine.
SHOOOOOOT HEERRRRR is a line I've used so many times in my life lmfao. Mostly for gaming.
I was in my early 30s when this came out and it was just stunning in the movie theater. Extraordinary.
This movie was so epic I saw it 6 times that summer as a kid. It was a brilliant use of CGI and animatronics which is a lost art. Literally feeling the steps of the T-Rex, as the water ripples is a cinematic experience you can never forget...I already LOVED dinosaurs. But then this...
Jurassic Park was filmed in Hawaii, and the storm footage was obviously real that hit during filming. Pretty amazing
I saw it six times in the theater and once at the drive in. I’m old. 😂
25:00 What I love about the whole T-Rex scene is the lack of music. It has so much tension just relying on the sounds of the T-Rex and whatnot!
1993 I was 14 years old, we had this little local Twin Cinema in my town that I saw this movie on opening day. It was an afternoon showing actually with my dad and brother. Let me tell you man, the whole movie blew us away! Such an amazing film for sure! And can you believe it, the whole movie only had 6 1/2 minutes of CGI animation in it? The rest were all either anamatronics or stop motion puppets! But still with what little they could do with the animation was groundbreaking at the time.
The movie was actually filmed in Hawaii, and nope, no CGI backdrops back then. We didn't have the tech to do such lush jungles and trees to be that photo-real like that back then.
Family first beyond anything. So don't worry and make no apologies. 👍
My girlfriend and I went to see it in the theater the second weekend it was open and it was literally standing room only in the theater. We got the last two actual seats and they had people standing in the aisles. It was a total fire code violation but nobody cared.
I remember the sound design, nothing has been comparable since this film.
To answer your question, most of the exterior footage was done in Hawaii.
"He's an archeologist"
Nope, he's a paleontologist. Archeologists dig up human history and prehistory, paleontologist dig up dinosaurs. It's a commonly made mistake.
Fun fact the fear the kids showed when the t rex attacked them in the car was genuine, the rain falling was making the robotics mess up on the t rex meaning the person who handled the robot couldnt contorl it at times.im pretty sure it wasnt supposed to break the glass
All the movies can be watched on their own.
I was 12, dad took me to the first showing on the morning it was released. I'll never forget it.
Fun fact, velociraptors are actually about the size of a turkey or a large cat. The "velociraptors" in this movie are actually closer to utahraptor or deinonychus. They just used the name velociraptor because it sounded cooler. Other than that, all the depictions of the dinosaurs were very accurate for the time. Of course our knowledge had grown since then, and we know that most of the dinosaurs depicted would have had very early versions of feathers, called proto-feathers, that are very similar to the kind of feathers emus have on their bodies. A lot of people think that takes away from the fear factor of dinosaurs, but honestly if you look up current mock ups of what t rex might have looked like, like the one in the indianapolis children's museum, it looks even more terrifying in my opinion. And dont worry about us man! You focus on being a good dad, and we'll be content with whatever you have the time to put out!
This is the first video of yours I've seen. First off, as a child of divorce, I know your son appreciates the time you spend with him regardless of it being during one of these videos or not. But yes you should definitely make sure you take care of your relationship before the growth of your channel. As far as the channel goes, I wish you all the best of luck! I watched a couple more videos and I can already say that it's fun seeing your reactions to stuff! Keep at it man!
And his son can cherish this videos of his father and him as well when his an adult. I cherish every picture, voice recording, video, letter, postcard of my father (RIP). Everytime I'm cleaning or organizing I find any of them and remember and feel the love 💜💜
One of the most amazing things about this movie is that there wasn’t much cgi, they used animatronics and people in suits
You are by far my favorite reactor! You get all the details, the implications, you're curious, and Scottish - just like John "Spared No Expense" Hammond.
"...tried to play God...." Yes. If you're a reader, the book is one of my top 5 favorite books of all time, it was written by a doctor from Harvard, hence the heavy lean into commercialization of science and morality, with a touch of legal ethics. The year this movie came out, Dr Chricton was the 3rd highest paid entertainer in the world (behind, George Lucas and Oprah Winfrey) because he put out the Jurassic Park movie, the ER TV show, and the Jurassic Park book...all in the same year
We miss our Louis (Lewis?) but speaking as an old (but cool and hip) granny, I think you have a good chance of becoming the most popular eligible bachelor in the USA. Just be yourself, don’t change a thing, put out more content, include rom coms, and the love letters will fly in. 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰
most popular eligible bachelor in the USA lol he lives in Durham which is in the North East of England
Loved this trilogy when I was growing up 💜💜
I remember when this movie came out - I was working at Universal Studios at the time so we got in free and it was so nice to have dolby surround sound...
Jurassic Park came out when I was in high school. Saw it 3 times in the theater, owned it in nearly every format. I absolutely love this movie.
I first saw this at the ripe old age of a year and a half and it has never stopped being my favorite movie since then
I was about 7 years old when I watched this movie in theaters. Mom and Dad took me because I loved dinosaurs. I remember barely blinking the whole movie, the raptor nightmares for a few nights, and how much I simply adored this movie.
I was a tree, Rick's and furniture climber. Climbed trees mainly to get to fruits, often beaten by birds though. 😅😅 great review!
This was the very first movie I was ever taken to. To this day it’s still one of my favorites and the book is also amazing. I’m glad you’re visiting them. As others have said, your kid comes first. We are happy to get you when we do and I don’t think any of us would demand any more at the cost of spending time with him. The movies aren’t going anywhere and we will wait for one of our favorite TH-cam dads to watch movies and shows with. 👍🏻
My mom said I was horrified though half of the movie (rightfully so for a 5 year old) and she finds it funny it’s in my top 5 movies. 😂
Whenever I see a video come from your channel I’ll watch it. You don’t ever need to apologize for spending time with your son. Got your priorities straight for sure
family should always come first! well done, sir! and all of the outdoor shots were filmed in Hawaii, if im not mistaken. i was it in the cinema when it first came out. the surround sound was incredible! and dont apologize for swearing. they WERE FUCKING AWESOME! 😁 as for the paleontologists being out of work, i dont think so. what hammond's team created werent true dinosaurs. their DNA was mixed with frog DNA to fill in the missing gaps in the genetic code. really glad you enjoyed the movie! hope to see you watch more of my favorites like Alien ans Aliens along with the Thing and Terminator 1&2. cheers, mate!
Yeah, brother. Started climbing trees as a little kid. Soon shifted to climbing rocks, then mixed in ice climbing. Kept at it for decades. Lots of good climbers come from your country. Mad lads.
I'm from Costa Rica, and when I was little I actually believed the islands where real. I used to beg my father to take me there 😄
I saw it the day it came out...waited in line for about 4 hours...LOL! They ended up adding it into a few extra theaters, because there were so many people there to see it. In the early ads, they hadn't shown any dinosaurs, building the anticipation of seeing them for the first time. It was amazing! It was fascinating and scary at the same time. My friend said, during the T-Rex attack on the kids car, it's Spielberg, he won't hurt the kids. All I kept thinking about was poor Alex Kintner in Jaws...LOL! The movie was definitely a roller coaster of emotions, but loved it so much!!
I'm devastated for Lewis that he's missed out on one of the great movies of our time he would have LOVED this. However I understand just would have been cool to see him in awe of this movie and his unreal reactions. Have now joined your Patreon BTW 👍👍 your channel rocks.
I love the stories from the set with the Mechanical T-Rex they made. It would short out because of all the water being sprayed, so it would move around crazy. also I remember something about the only way to fix a certain thing someone had to climb into its mouth, ya noooooooooooooo thanks
I saw this one in the theater when I was in high school. And pretty sure it was such a massive hit I saw it twice that summer.
I watched it 31 years ago with I was 5. I have been an avid fan sense. My son who is 4 loves the movies too.
Opening weekend 1993 I saw this, was 11 at the time.
Most magical experience I've ever had at the cinema :)
You said a couple times that the CGI must gave been amazing at the time... and the thing is, they still are.
There's a couple bits that are outdated now, but JP's effects stand up to most modern movies.
An example, is at 13:02, the big wide reveal of the landscape... that scene is 95% CGI. The only thing real in that scene, is the grass and the trees mid-screen.
All the trees and mountains in the distance, the sky, the small trees in the foreground, and the water... all CGI.
Even the people standing in the shot were pasted in using CGI.
And the rex attack scene:
The rex stepping out of the fence and roaring... that entire bit, the cars, fence, rain, everything, was CGI.
And the bit that wasn't shown in your video, when the rex has flipped the car, the shot goes to a wide shot, and you see her step up onto the car, and bit at the wheel... again, everything in that shot, the car, rain, ground, background, everything, was CGI.
I saw Jurassic Park when it first came out. The sound was incredible and I watched it just like you (your arm movements) blocking the view, and sometimes just looking at the top corner of the screen. 😉😁
I saw this at the cinema when it came out. Unlike nowadays, you just got one trailer, at the cinema. You didn’t know it was coming, and the effects!!! Just blew our minds! 😮 Still holds up today.
Still the best film in the franchise imo ❤
You & Lewis come first obvs!!! ❤ I am still hoping for more GoT reactions uploaded though, when you have time, for us non Patreons - was loving those ❤
Every time I go to gaming rooms at cinemas, Dave and buster or mall arcade; I check for the jurassic park game to use most of my credits. 😂
I was 11 and Saw it when it premiered in the Cinema here in Denmark - an experience of a lifetime.
THis movie came out in a special effects sweet spot that lasted about 4 years in the 1990s, when CGI was new and effective, but so expensive that they only gave it to master directors like Spielberg and James Cameron. During this 4 year window, they would still use practical effects AUGMENTED by CGI, instead of replacing them with CGI entirely, like they do now (cheaper). You end up with movies like Terminator 2, Titanic, the Abyss, and Jurassic Park where it feels so very real that you're immersed in the movie. In fact, for Titanic, James Cameron built a FULL SCALE replica of the Titanic itself for filming and flooded entire rooms with water, as opposed to the current way of just using CGI. They eye can tell the difference. The eye can tell.
Modern CGI, while cool, is missing an element of realism that you're barely aware of. I had to walk out of the theater during Transformers 5, because the movie was just so dumb, that even giant fighting CGI robots using katana swords couldnt keep my interest-- and I went into Transformers 5 with the lowest of expectations ---that's how ineffective CGI can be if overused or misused by an incompetent director.
I saw this at the cinema as a kid in 93. Will always remember how, when the t-rex ate that lawyer, other parents were taking their young kids out the cinema! It was only rated PG back then. This was the 2nd film I can remember seeing at a cinema back then, the 1st being Robin Hood Prince of Thieves - another good film you need to add to your watch list if you havnt already.
It’s filmed in Kauai and Oahu in Hawaii, btw. I’ve been to all the locations and they are just as beautiful in real life.
I have seen this so many times, and I still enjoy it very much.
Your reaction is so good, and I gonna evey reaction of you to this Amazing Franchise👍
I don't remember when I first saw this, but I did see it in a re release in the theater and there was nothing like it, great movie.
"They're just standing there watching?" What did you expect them to do, approach the T-Rex and say "Pick on someone your own size!" It's a fucking 20 foot tall T-Rex, man.
I'm glad that you enjoyed this.
Cheers Kev! Know that we understand the difficulty of scheduling things around the short time you get to spend with Lewis. HE COMES FIRST. Hanging out with your son and building a strong relationship with him is by far the priority - speaking for myself, I'm perfectly happy to get the solo watches, you're fun to hang out with as you experience the movies/shows I'm already familiar with.
For Lewis - You'll get to be the go-to guy when it's the movie round at quiz night! The secret weapon in the young team, with all the 'old' knowledge.
Raise a pint Kev, I'll see you next time.
I appreciate your intro music. It's not jarring like many other youtubers. Thanks!!
I was so blown away when it first came out in the cinema I went to see it 7 times!
The dolby surround in the cinema was unreal when the first Brachiosaurus came back down after standing up and the T-rex roaring. The sound and vibrations were awesome.
I saw this at the cinema at release. It was quite an eye opener, especially the T-Rex
I wish they played this again at cinema so I can watch in 4dx would be cool with the chair moving and the effects of the elements 💜💜
Hey bro, I have my son on weekends, and that time is precious. Our boy comes first man we get it, upload when you can we will watch it, keep up the good work 👍
