Well, that was actually just mentioned in the book, you don't read the scene itself play out in the chapter. The first scene is a teenage kid being helicopter-rushed to an emergency clinic and saying he was attacked by a raptor before dying, and then a scene very similar to the first of this movie, with a young girl (named "Tina" [short for Christina] encountering the Procompsognathus and being attacked [though she survives] ), and eventually, we get to scenes more similar to the first film, with Dr. Alan Grant and his team digging up a raptor fossil (called Velociraptor but in the region where they would actually be excavating Deinonychus or Utahraptor fossils).
@@kestrelraptorial689 its still the first Dinosaur encounter in the book tho. It's short and brief, but my god Ill never forget the first time I read that part,
In a deleted scene, Roland Tembo, the hunter leader, expresses regret over the animals he's killed, likening it more to a firing squad than proper hunting. With his everest quote, I think he went to the island not so much because he wants a Rex trophy, but because he wants one last true hunt, where the animal might actually win. He got what he wanted, the animals won, but it's his best friend who died, and he immediately gives up on his vanity project. In my opinion, coupled with the fact he rescued the protagonists after being sabotaged, this makes him more redeemable than Nick.
Not to mention in the same deleted scene he decked out a self entitled macho wannabe asshole who was getting handsy with a local waitress against her protestation. Mind you according to Rajay it was because Roland was "bored," but it still makes it hard to dislike the guy
People are nowadays just way too attached to animals. If you a hunter in real life, there are lunatics that immediately shun you. This movie came out in a time where people didn’t mark someone as a monster for being a hunter thankfully
@sonicfan117dash2 Broke the dinosaurs out, got it so everyone was stuck together with the InGen crew losing their radio equipment. Indirectly caused the Rexes to follow them. Took the bullets from Roland's gun so he couldn't protect his men when they were attacked in the night. Responsible for the Buck being captured and brought to San Diego since Roland had no bullets. Multiple casualties were caused by him trying to protect the dinos through any means necessary. He's literally the token evil teammate of Hammond's team.
"DON'T GO INTO THE LONG GRASS!!!" everyone run's into the long grass, including the guy who told them not to, no one ever listens to the smartes guy, not even the smartest guy who said it lol, one of the best scenes ever, no doubt about that
Yeah the humans were fish in a barrel in that field. Raptors must've been talking crazy 💩, like "Stupid humans, you take all of the challenge out of dinner"
49:04 Yes, that was actually a Godzilla reference. I'm not sure if anyone's mentioned this fact yet but apparently one of the men running is saying, ""I left Japan to get away from this!"
I was gonna make this comment :) Also the very next scene you see a guy get eaten as he tries to run, He is either a producer or the script writer I forget but I think its a cool easter egg.
I'm sure someone else has already talked about this but here's a few answers to certain questions. 1. These movies were filmed in Hawaii, JP1 (Jurassic Park) was filmed during an actual hurricane in Hawaii. The storm destroyed a couple of sets and even caused a few errors with the Animatronic Rex at one point. Although the island name in the movie is "Isla Nublar" 2. JP2 (The Lost World) is set on the island "Isla Sorna" or Site B as they called it. This island was abandoned and left for the creatures to fend for themselves. However, due to the beginning with the little girl's incident, InGen was taken from John Hammond by his nephew. Not really sure if you noticed but Hammond did say the girl survived and was alright, she was just injured.
Also, regarding the crew of the ship, there's supposedly a deleted scene that reveals some Raptors snuck on the ship and killed them. Don't know why it was cut, but that's what I heard.
Further trivia the scene with that British family at the beginning is actually a scene from the first book. Which is the extent of similarity this movie has to the actual second book.
@Kagemaru it wasn't filmed, if I remember correctly I believe there was concept art that people took to show raptors in what appears might be a boat but isn't clear. This video goes into what happened to the crew th-cam.com/video/jEahCE2Gvdg/w-d-xo.html
They didn’t actually film any full scenes during the storm in the first movie. They did get a bit of footage, however, such as the waves crashing against the rocks. The T-Rex scene was filmed on a sound stage with Hollywood rain. The malfunctioning T-Rex was because Stan Winston’s crew built it with foam latex skin, and didn’t know Spielberg was going to film the scene with rain. So, when they were filming, the animatronic would “shiver” because the system that allowed its movement wasn’t calibrated for the extra weight that had accumulated because the foam latex soaked up a bunch of the water they were raining down on the T Rex. They had to pay it down with towels to dry it out before resuming filming. Fun fact: did you know that Isla Nublar is Spanish for “Cloud Island”? According to the book it was named this for the perpetual cloud of mist hanging over the island. Which, funny enough, was perfect for creating a dinosaur theme park
@@jr_irizarry I remember reading that in a book all about snakes as a kid, and the way my book phrases it was "red touch yellow, kill a fellow, red touch black, friend of Jack" 🤣
Roland may have been a hunter but he did have a sense of morality. There is a deleted scene where aj and Roland are discussing the new job that AJ has meanwhile a group of young men are hassling a waitress so Roland goes over to the table,beats them up and makes them apologize to the waitress
Also in the script it explains how the baby Rex got its leg broken. Ludlow is an alcoholic, as he's often seen with his flask. He gets drunk and stumbles backwards, stepping on the rex's leg, breaking it. Roland admonishes him for it. I wish they had kept this scene because otherwise it makes it look like Roland broke the leg to cause the baby to call out in pain.
@@AnAmericanMusician Hunters who hunt just for trophies because they like to predate and kill are not high in the list of people with good morale values. Furthermore, in this case they were borderline between hunters and poachers.
@Roberto Prestigiacomo Hunters can hunt for the trophy. Call it unethical, but it is what it is. Poachers are only interested in specific parts of the animal for selling, typically wasting most of the animal as a result. My personal rules are: 1. Don't hunt anything sacred/endangered 2. Use the animal afterward
@Roberto Prestigiacomo You do know why they have trophy hunters, right? Most wildlife preserves need to keep animals numbers under a certain level so they give out tags to hunt one and the money from those tags goes towards the park. At least responsible ones anyways. Otherwise they will need to cull animals to keep the parks ecosystem from collapsing. Sorry to burst your bubble but the people who hunt these animals are the ones who love them the most. Their money helps protect the species from going extinct. The ones that hunt caged animals and poachers are the people you should hate.
The tall grass scene has stayed with me since childhood. A lot of people stay away from the rest of the franchise, but I think they're all fun in their own ways.
Whenever I play Pokémon and a route forces me into the grass, I think of that “don’t go into the tall grass” line. XD And heck, sometimes just irl when I see tall grass, lol.
It always makes me sad seeing Eddie die. He really was the only one being helpful. Also yea, Roland, despite being a game hunter, is a pretty cool dude and much smarter than the leads lol
like he just wanted to hunt and beat 1 bull trex and that was it, compared to the excessive greed and assholery of the rest of the group, Roland was always a favourite for me
Also, as a mention, The compys eating the guy that was trying to pee, the reason why it was hard for him to fight back is because in the novel, the compys had a venomous bite that hard a similiar effect to drowsiness, drunkiness, like torpidity to it, so it basically makes the victim sluggish, sleepy n numb. so when his lip was bit, he was immediately envenomated, he began to panic and as u see by the end he couldnt really run well or climb well.
Fun thing with Burke; the paleontologist with the hat. He’s based on a real guy, Robert Bakker. At the time, Bakker posited that the rex was an active hunter, while the advisor for Jurassic park, Jack Horner, believed it to be an obligate scavenger. (The truth is probably both, like most large predatory animals) Reportedly, Bakker loved the caricature, and when he saw Burke die, he sent a message to Horner saying “See, I told you T. rex was a hunter!”
Ian has NEVER been on this island (Site B) until he came to rescue Sarah. When he ended up on the island, Ian became the Dino expert in his group as he learned everything that he did from Alan and Ellie. It's just too bad no one listened to him until it's too late.
I adore this movie but always get so annoyed, Sarah claims she’s been around predators since she was 20 but walks around an island full of carnivorous dinosaurs in a shirt covered in wet blood 😂💀
Fun fact: In the Jurassic Park book, Hammond had actually fallen down a hill into a creek, injuring himself, and ended up falling prey to Compy's. In this movie, they used that scene on that idiot which I felt was very fitting. Therefore, in The Lost World book, it was recordings of Hammond talking about the dinos used as he had already died. Edit: Also, the comment of the Rex steering the ship is something I had no idea I wanted to see done. 😂
I watched this movie in theaters on opening weekend while on family vacation as a kid. I have this great memory of my grandmother screaming "THEY'RE IN THE GRASS, LOOK OUT, THEY'RE IN THE GRASS!". It was if she thought the mercs could hear her, she was that freaked out. It cracks me up even till this day.
One thing the film doesn't show unless you watch the deleted scenes and story board, Rowland gets mad at Ludlow for breaking the baby rex's leg by stepping on it while drunk. They explained that the dinosaurs are able to survive because the island has lysine rich foods so the herbivores eat the plants absorbing the lysine and the carnivores kill the herbivores absorbing the lysine from them. Therefore the island can sustain the dinosaurs. Edit: during the San Diego incident the man with the glasses who gets eaten is David Koepp, the screenwriter for this movie.
I really hope Stella sees this because she is 100% right about the tire being added for 3D effect! I saw this movie in theatres and it flies right in your face. I thought it was cheesy even back then 🤣
Let me be one to say that the toys and action figures released for these first two movies were so darn awesome! Great decade for kids toys, and from plenty of movies not for kids (such as Aliens, which had amazing action figures!).
I remember watching this in the cinema when it was released and being kinda shocked when the first "half" was over. Movies over 2 hours weren't unheard of but kinda rare for big blockbusters. So when the movie went from the classic island adventure into the city "Kaiju horror" the entire hall went crazy because it felt like two movies in one. I watched it twice in a week and loved it.
Roland may be a hunter but he's actually a pretty decent person. There's a deleted scene that shows the kind of person he is. And he didn't break the Rex's leg either That was what's his name. The douchebag with the glasses that gets eaten by the baby at the end. He fell on it and broke his leg pretty much. And roland about kicks his ass for it. Just because he wants to hunt the buck doesn't mean he's cruel. There is definitely a lot about them that they left out. Also Nick was really the biggest enemy in this movie. While he did stop the dinosaurs from being taken to the mainland for the most part it was because of him that the rex was captured and the whole San Diego incident happened. If he hadn't taken the shells out of that nitro Express, Roland would have killed the buck rather than sedated him
So awesome to see you, Nobu, Hailey and Stella react to _The Lost World: Jurassic Park_ following the first film’s reaction last week. While, it doesn’t top the original film, it still holds up thanks to Jeff Goldblum performance as Ian Malcolm, the visual effects and seeing more familiar and new dinosaurs. Looking forward to your reaction to the third film next week and the _Jurassic World_ films.
whats really, really funny is the beginning with Hammond and Ian's convo, is if you pay attention to the context... "she- she came to me, i want you to know this!" was Hammond fumbling around because Ian was gonna call everyone and call off the expedition, and then when Ian questions Sarah and says "when Hammond called you, why didnt you say something to me?" she doesnt even say that Hammond called her, she says "you'd tie me to the bed" which implies, Hammond contacted Sarah. which kinda implies that Hammond knew if he got Sarah onto that Island, he could get Ian to go as well. everything was set up to get Ian to go because Hammond knew, no matter what he did, Ian would not go back. ***avid JP lover, read both books, and im still learning new contexts and such within the movies***
Originally, it was supposed to be a pack of Velociraptors that killed everyone on the ship. But it was changed at the last minute. That's why it doesn't make sense that the T-Rex killed everyone, even people inside areas the Rex can't fit in, but it still got locked up somehow.
Tembo's character development is great: in the end he realises that what he wants - to hunt a T-rex - is not worth that which he had: his friendship with Ajay.
42:58 The rifle Rolland used was a .600 Nitro Express. The cartridges cost about $100 EACH! An experienced safari hunter like Rolland should've brought more than two rounds, but it's possible his extra cartridges were lost in the chaos. Fun fact: According to IMFDB, there were two fully functional .600 Nitro Express rifles made for this film made by B. Searcy & Co. in California. An like many rifles of this type, their cost were in the tens of thousands of dollars PER UNIT! Spielberg supposedly kept one of the rifles after production.
In Victorian-style safari hunting, the hunter would usually be accompanied by a "bearer," whose role was to haul the equipment - including extra ammunition - so that the hunter could move to get the shot unencumbered. Arjay would have been a close friend and trusted sidekick to have gone through the sort of adventures that the film implies Tembo had, so it makes sense that Tembo was so devastated by his death.
Fun fact: Sarah's father is Dr. Earl Harding. Dr. Harding is who Ellie Sattler was working with in the first movie when dealing with the sick Triceratops. Another fun fact: The character Alan Grant is a stand in for real life paleontologist Jack Horner- whose theories about Dinosaurs is what the dinosaurs of the movies are based on. Bob is a fictional stand in for real life Paleontologist- Bob Baker (mentioned in the first movie). The two were rivals with many conflicting theories and thus Bob was written into the movie to die. Something that actually amused Bob Baker.
Yaaaay! I'm so happy you guys are doing this series! I hope you react to them all, even the not-so-good ones. They're still fun to watch! Gotta love dinosaurs!
Yes ma'am Amazing 😍 and hey that end scene where the really mean old greedy guy's begging Please Noo Wait Wait Wait!! Then Crunching him up 😋 to feed him to baby it was actually pretty cute and funny looking would you agree with me?
@@Steven-ez6qp haha I'm a bit of a wimp, so even though that guy deserved it, I don't like to watch or hear it 😂. But he definitely got what he deserved!
@@tinahastie Hahaha awe come on I know by your laughing You like it hahaha it's okay it was actually funny looking it's supposed to be because like You said the mean guy Deserves it! And he was Soo selfish and abandoned the poor kids just trying to save himself. And especially the way Rexy 🦖 She Bites him up shaking him around like a fun doggy chew toy lol you have to admit it was actually kinda funny looking Right?
I remember there was a cereal when this came out. It was like Lucky Charms, had regular cereal along with marshmallow dinosaurs. I think they also had an oatmeal variety, where the marshmallow bits were eggs, and the heat of the oatmeal would melt the egg part and reveal the dinosaurs inside. Just something I remember about this film from when I was a kid.
I like how Ian character has changed in this movie than he was in the 2nd one. Being on that island in the first movie really did help him to become a better person. Also I found it really stupid that Sarah did ditch the Jacket when she had the baby T-Rex blood on it. She must have known than the parents will try to follow the trace. Cannot wait to see you react to the 3rd one. No spoilers but I have to tell you but Alan returns in it. My favourite character.
@@lescobar195 Dr. Grant was wrong assuming Tyrannosaurus Rex couldn't notice immobile objects. They were just lucky that she was not hunting, but exploring. Was also confused as sitting frozen is not typical prey behavior.
I think it wouldn't matter whether Sarah kept the jacket or not because everyone who was i that van would still carrie their own personal smell and hidns of the blood may have been in there hair/ on their skin as well. That also gos for Nick.
According to the book, the family in the opening was somewhere they weren't supposed to be, as it was illegal for any boat or plane to approach within a kilo of Islas Nublar or Sorna and their small yacht had slipped past the Costa Rican navy unnoticed. They had no idea what island this was and its dangers, and neither did their crew, as Isla Sorna was MUCH LESS well known than Isla Nublar where the original events happened. They knew they weren't at Isla Nublar and thought this island was safe and okay to land at. The little girl was very badly torn up, but she LIVED. When she succumbed to Compy venom and its muscle-locking paralysis, she landed upright on her knees, meaning the Compies couldn't reach her vital organs or the major arteries in her inner thighs, and weren't strong enough to knock her over. Though they VERY badly ripped up her lower arms, legs, and thighs all the way up to the waist, they were unable to kill her in the time between when she started screaming and the time her parents and the yacht crew arrived to find her and drive the Compies off and provide immediate first aid. She lived, but it was a hell of a traumatic experience and she wound up badly scarred for life both physically and emotionally.
Eddie, aside from Ian, was the MVP on the team. And I think, out of all the deaths in Jurassic Park/World frainchise, Eddie's was the most heroic. Man did his best to save the others while attempting to fend off the Buck and Doe T-Rex before he got... wishboned. RIP Eddie Carr. Not sure if someone already mentioned this but... Roland didn't break the baby T-Rex's leg. It was an intoxicated Ludlow who tripped and fell on the infant dino resulting in the broken leg in the movie. There are two still of this deleted scene; wish this scene was included in the film though.
Other than Ian and Eddie, I like to view the In-Gen team as the real heroes. Sarah and Nick were the ones making the dumb decisions that jeopardized everyone. Besides Sarah leading the rex with her bloody jacket, Nick taking Roland’s bullets prevented him from potentially killing the Rex and saving lives.
But them going in and disturbing the whole island is what causes most problems in the first place. Most of the dumb decisions by the good guys happen in reaction to that. Heck, if it wasn't for the InGen board deciding to start their second park project, the first team wouldn't have been needed either, as the only reason Hammond sent them was to promote turning the island(s) into nature preserves when he lost his control over the company.
@@0815UserII but if Nick didn't mess with Roland's gun, the T-Rex wouldn't have escaped in San Diego and killed a bunch of people and caused all that damage.
@@happiestaku6646 True, but the InGen team going all Pokemon on the Island is what brought the first team into the position to make their dumb decisions in the first place and ultimately brought the T-Rex to San Diego, so I have a really hard time giving them the hero label.
@@happiestaku6646 I would argue the San Diego incident isn't ultimately Nick's fault (though I agree stealing the bullets was a bonehead move). In the movie, they mention that the two darts Roland hit the rex with caused it to stop breathing. The InGen team then gave it something to counteract the effects. If they hadn't given it anything, it would have just died there on the island, just as it would have if Roland had hit it with the bullets.
Hell yeah I'm glad you guys are continuing the movies, the lost world is my absolute favorite in the franchise. I love the T-Rex running around San Diego and the raptor scene in the tall grass and not going to lie I wished I had a compy when I was kid.
The embryos won't come back because they've long since died. The can had enough insulation to keep them cooled(cryostasis I suppose) for 48 hours or so if I remember right. The rival company wanted viable(living) embryos. The focus on the can getting buried in the mud was, I think, more for the irony. The first movie went terribly wrong when it did due to Nedry's greed. He sabotaged the park, stole the embryos, and ultimately got four people killed(The lawyer, Mr. Arnold , Muldoon, and himself) and endangered six others, including two children). All for money. But it backfired on him since he died and the embryos were lost. It was a dramatic irony.
The compys are my favorite because of how underestimated they are; Crichton explained in the original novel that compys had a venomous saliva which is similar to that of the indian king cobra, tho less dangerous and more primitive. Basically, after being bitten, the prey becomes sedated and defenseless. Compys hunted in large groups and were basically scavengers. They tended to attack only sick, injured, or similarly weak animals. In the original Jurassic Park novel some packs of them managed to reach Costa Rica and mostly attacked babies/little children, especially when they were asleep. Also, the opening scene from the movie is taken from the original Jurassic Park novel where a young girl who was on vacation with her family in Costa Rica got attacked at the beach. Later on in the novel, the compys were found eating the carcass of Dennis Nedry. They also killed John Hammond who'd fallen down a hill. This scene, which is narrated in Hammond's point of view, shows how the poison not only makes him sleepy but also gives him a peaceful feeling and he doesn't even fully realize he's dying as they eat him. In the movies this whole issue is actually never mentioned. But it seems they tend to hunt in large groups and the attack on Dieter Stark obviously has an element of revenge because he electrocuted one of them. His end does seem inspired by Hammond's novel death.
I think the thing with Hammond here is that he is not in the second book. This means that for the film they have to find a way to get him in (and to get Richard Attenborough back). As a result there was no natural place for him to fit in to the story, meaning his appearances and story arc are all a bit forced. But, having said that, as a character, I can see that he still loves what he helped to create and sees them as innocent creatures that need to be protected. I think if we had a longer, or an extra scene, with him at the start we may have seen this more, but that scene was all about Ian's quips and rushing through the reason to get him on the island and get us seeing dinosaurs. Still, at least these two films had the books to go off of, after this the franchise has to start coming up with completely original stuff, and that's where it struggles I think. Just my opinion.
@@michaelklaus True, but he had a bigger part in the first and more time to deliver that exposition. I think it could have worked here if more time had been given to it.
You know I always wondered what happened to Dr. Sarah Harding and Ian’s daughter, Kelly Curtis following this film since they never appeared nor were they mentioned in the Jurassic World movies.
the daughter probably grew up, went to college as a gymnast and doesn't get involved with dinos, Ian would probably do his best to keep all of his kids away from this shit. Kelly most likely has some severe PTSD when it comes to the dinosaurs.
Yeah, lots of jump scares in this movie lol Also, R.I.P the poor dog who got eaten (side note: I hate that family for leaving the poor thing chained outside)
I love the Tyrannosaurus rex designs in this movie. The camouflage coloration fits perfectly with their redwood habitat. I might be a minority on this one, but I think the T. rex designs in The Lost World are better than the one in Jurassic Park.
You should definitely watch the Jurassic World franchise too, people give it a lot of crap, but they’re great "leave your brain outside films" and the dinosaurs get cooler and cooler, especially the raptors. Every movie has a great raptor scene! Also good luck with screaming lady in the third Jurassic Park, her character is the only one that kinda gets annoying. Also the references in Jurassic world are great, they tie back a lot of stuff, particularly the third film! Its great!
@@nsasupporter7557Jurassic World is ok...The ending was really fun. But the series goes down hill really quick after. I agree with your sentiment about Hollywood lazily regurgitating movie franchises.
I agree with your opinion on Jurassic world trilogy. It’s a great watch Dino’s eat people film series. After The lost World Jurassic park the story isn’t really important to the films after that point. Which makes sense because there’s only two books(even though the two movies deviate from the books quite heavily) if they followed the books there wouldn’t even be the current Jurassic world. Because several main characters shouldn’t even be alive. But yea. I feel the first two have good story and messages behind them because they get the messages from the books they’re based off of. Soooo when they go past the mind behind the books it’s just Hollywood writing at that point.
You really have to leave your brain way outside. I agree, if you just want to see CGI dinos they are worth a watch. Otherwise they are garbage. Every scene, especially any raptor scene, feels like it was written by a focus group of middle school boys just going "Dude, imagine if..." or "It would be so cool...". Then the shitty writers cobbled those disjoint ideas into a film by creating a story to tie them all together that didn't make sense. Just lazy writing, shallow character development, and terrible plot ideas.
I feel like such a fish out of water seeing reactors all reflexively giving Roland and Ajay hate. When I was a kid Roland was one of the coolest characters I remember in a movie. He's the only one to go through an arc (and not die). I wish there was more of him in it.
Same, but the actor passed away not long after, so unless they recast him (which they shouldn't in my honest opinion), he won't come back unless they do so in comic form.
None of the sequels compare to the original Jurassic Park film, but I still think the entire series (both trilogies) is very enjoyable to watch. I am not saying they are anywhere near perfect films, but they are nice, fun films.
Yes ma'am 💯😍 and hey that last part where the really mean old greedy guy's begging like OMG Please Noo Wait Wait Wait Wait!! Then Crunching him to feed him to baby Rexy it was actually pretty funny looking would you agree with me?
4:14 lol best jump scare. I love this movie because back in the 90s this one premiered with tons of merch to buy and you could get all the ingen tech as toys and play hunter with your dinosaur toys lol. Great reaction guys. The third one is still lots of fun and have some of the most epic scenes of the whole franchise.
This was a fun sequel, but it’s definitely not as good as the masterpiece original. As a kid, this was my favorite of the trilogy instead of the original. I don't know why, but I guess I liked the T-Rex's family dynamic.
Best sequel by far, and tends to be underrated because critics didn’t like it. The trailer scene is one of my favorites in the series and Roland Tembo is definitely my favorite character in all of the films, only surpassed by the novel’s version of Robert Muldoon. I really feel like Spielberg took a lot of inspiration from Capstick’s Death in the Long Grass and I wish his backstory scenes weren’t cut from the final film, as they make his character even better. Despite many differences from the novel, it’s great seeing the dinosaurs with established territories and a big focus on their parental care. This film also does the best job with aggressive herbivores, albeit for only some brief moments. You’re good stopping here; the series goes downhill after this, though JP3 does have some nice cgi and animatronics.
Plenty of people who aren't critics dislike this movie. 😂 It's the start of a seemingly endless mission to make this the dumbest franchise in the world.
Never said it was only critics that disliked it. Yes, it’s not a perfect film, with plenty of flaws, but it’s still respectful to the dinosaurs and has good themes of parental care and responsibility. Nowhere near as good as the first film though.
Agreed it was absolutely the best sequel by far. The last 20 minutes brought it down a little bit, but everything on the island, was just as good as Jurassic Park. Jurassic Park is a 10 this is easily a 9. Jurassic Park 3 is an abortion and an embarrassment to the franchise. But this is the best sequel by far.
Yeah, the San Diego incident felt slapped on from another movie…because it was. It was supposed to be the main plot for JP3, but then Spielberg realized he wouldn’t be directing that film, so he crammed it into TLW.
T-Rex steering the boat totally cracked me up! It always put me in mind of that scene in Dracula, where it's just a ghost ship, but seems to steer itself. (Dracula is driving) 😂 He also ate everyone aboard.
The Jurassic Park book opened with a compy (the little dinosaurs) eating a baby. I've always felt that the compy attack of the little girl in the opening of 2 was a great homage to that.
There was another incident from the book where an older kid was bitten by a single Compy. The find said Compy half-eaten by a monkey, and from there we learn about the park. I think the movie scene is more a shout out to that.
The scene with the little girl encountering the compeys definitely based on the same scene in the first book of a vacationing Rich couple who go to a secluded beach and their little girl finds the compeys. When the doctor is treating her he or his nurse have her draw a picture of the supposed reptile that bit her and the nurse realizes it looks like a dinosaur because her son is so into dinosaurs. Then the doctor sends a photocopy of the drawing to Allen Grant to get his opinion and that's just about when Hammond shows up at their dig.
Hold on, Roland and Ajay were the ones who kidnapped the baby Rex from its nest, directly antagonizing the parents for no other reason than thrill-seeking hunting. And Ludlow is the one who broke its leg while drunk. The chain of events start with them.
@LolloBlue96 Seems like victim blaming to me. Ludlow is doing his job, saving ingen from bankruptcy, and doing something every zoo in the world has done. The people he hires are well supplied and aware of the risks, he did not manipulate any of them or lie about their purpose.
@ALK82 The most that could have happened was that Ajay and Roland would have died trying to kill the buck, it was Nick's hero complex that turned a controlled situation into a blood bath. First by his sabotage, then his attempt at rescuing the baby rex and finally his taking Roland's bullets. Roland gave up seeking out the trophy as soon as others were in peril, Nick never stopped sabotaging the survivors.
awesome video and discussion :) regarding the embryos: in the first movie, it's mentioned that there's only enough coolant in the canister to keep them safe for a few days, after which they (presumably) would no longer be viable. no spoilers for future installments ofc, but there's only so much you can assume about that barbasol can, haha
My favorite moment in this movie is probably that bit near the end, where the T-Rex escapes into the city, and Ian leans over to Peter and says: "Now, you're John Hammond."
Guys the 90s wasn't the damn stone age. We had sophisticated machines and yes we could live broast someone. How do you think people spoke to eachother on the news? Lol
I have some issues with Jurassic World, but I still found it an entertaining movie, though I haven't watched any of the sequels since Jurassic World. Personally I really like TLW because of Jeff Goldblum, Ian Malcolm's character change after the trauma of the events of the first movie feel really realistic, while he keeps his style of dry humour but with more touches of dark humour to it.
I LOVE the Malcolm scene, the editing from the Island to him is genius. Also, fellow Stegosaurus fan. I don't know why but i always found these "adorable" xD
This movie got a lot of shit but as a kid I must have rewatched the entire island story 100 times. It's just fun having a group of humans dealing with dinosaurs on the loose with zero control over them. Ian feels like a different character but I still thought he was really funny with the sarcasm.
I reckon it might have been a deliberate character choice - he's still him, but toned down a little from the traumatic events they all went through - that probably changes a person?
I feel like he is, but that's because of the changes in the movie vs book. I know there was a book version but they had to be careful because "The Lost World" was a book by Arthur Conan Doyle and....as a Sherlock Holmes fan, going up against the Doyle estate is...not good.
This sequel was all right for me. I liked it, the suspension, the dinosaurs. The 2 Jurassic Park books that the first 2 movies are based of are a thriller horror must read. Fun fact: I believe it was Steven Spielberg self asked the author: Michael Crichton, to make another Jurassic Park book just so he could make sequel. In 1995, the second book came out and in 1997 the sequel movie came out.
The scene with the little girl on the beach was in the Jurassic Park book. This is how the outside world finds out about the island. A doctor treats the girls wounds and then goes back to find out what bit her. He finds a monkey eating one. He sends the remains to the city museum. This whole sub plot was cut from the Jurassic park movie.
That window cracks like regular plate glass, but in a mobile trailer it should have been laminated glass which has a plastic layer that holds the glass layers together if they crack, or tempered safety glass that shatters into tiny cubelike pieces that are less dangerous than large shards. But that wouldn't be sufficiently suspenseful or dramatic.
13:14-13:15 - It’s Kind of funny and ironic that *EVERYONE* especially Stella were able to recognize Julianne Moore in _The Lost World: Jurassic Park_ yet in their most recent group reaction of _Children of Men_ which also starred Julianne Moore in both the TH-cam edit and in the full version, none of them recognized nor did they *EVER* mentioned Julianne Moore being in _Children Of Men_ Even it goes further that during their _Annihilation_ reaction aside from recognizing Natalie Portman and Oscar Isaac none of them recognize the other actors especially Tessa Thompson and Gina Rodriguez.
To answer your question about the embryos that Nedry stole, in the cafe scene with Nedry and Dodgson Nedry was told the coolant in the can only last 48 hours, after that the embryos will get too warm and expire. So after Nedry lost the can while getting killed the embryos are lost and there's nothing further to that plot line.
My house when I was growing up was located at a very busy intersection in San Diego. I used to think the T-Rex was coming down the street because I would hear loud thumping. It would always just be a car that eventually would drive past with a loud ass bass. But I’d look out the window every time just to be sure. 😂 Jurassic Park is definitely a horror series for 90s kids.
So a interesting piece of confirmed canon. The sick Triceratops in the first movie was being treated by Jurassic Park veterinarian referred to as Doctor Harding. Turns out he is actually Sarah Harding's father. Because of the NDA he signed he never told his daughter about the island. Also because he may have known she'd race off to the island if she knew. Further note: the book Sarah was infinitely more BA than movie Sarah. She pretty much single handedly saved the entire team and mercilessly fed the villain, in the book it was Dodgeson, to a T-Rex. I strongly recommend reading or at least listening to the books. The first book vs movie wasn't bad as the movie had enough charm on its own but I felt the second book was far superior to the second movie
I love how I think it was today or yesterday that I commented how I hoped you guys continue the franchise lol 😂 so thank you I love it. But to answer your question is that everybody is not taking Malcom seriously because when he survived the first movie he tried to tell the public about the horrors but InGen, the company that made the dinosaurs discredited him so now nobody believes him they think he’s crazy and nobody takes him seriously
so glad you guys are doing the full franchise! I vote yes for all six :) Small and perhaps pedantic point - there were no flying or aquatic dinosaurs - things like pteradactyls and mosasaurus were reptiles that were around at the same time. The shaving cream can reference people always seem to think it's a setup, but it was very clearly stated that there was only enough coolant in the can for 36 hours, so they wouldn't be viable. I don't know why this always becomes such a conspiracy theory. It doesn't make it too clear in the film, but it the book it explains that the reason the T-Rexes attacked the trailers is because by bringing the baby back there it actually expanded their perceived territory and that's why they had to defend it - by getting rid of the threat, Again, with the compys - it's explained in the book that their saliva contains some kind of narcoleptic venom (not sure if that's the right word!!) and it makes the victims drowsy so they can eat at leisure without risking injury. The Japanese business men are indeed making a Godzilla reference - it translates to something like " I didn't leave Japan for this" Also a fun cameo from David Koepp as the guy in the phone box Fun Easter egg at the end - when they are on the sofa watching tv and it zooms on the tv, look at the reflection in the screen - Stephen Spielberg is sat between them on the sofa!
@B-Dad 8504 aesthetically, it was something i as a child took as representation. Yes, your statement may be correct, but does a young kid (or most people) think about that when they see what they identify as a blatantly white compared it to Kelly's complexion? I certainly didn't care and saw it as something close to my family dynamic. It was rare in the 90s.
Pretty sure *SOMEONE* down the line has already said this, but the paleontologist with the InGen team, Burke, (cowboy hat, long wiry greying brown hair, glasses plaid shirt that knew his stuff and got eaten in the waterfall), was based of of real life famous paleontologist Robert T. Bakker. Like Alan Grant was based off of other famous paleontologist and consultant for the films Jack Horner. Now, Horner was a strong proponent of the theory that T. rex couldn't chase down prey and was therefore an exclusive scavenger (but this has long since been disproven) and knowing full well, Burke was based off of him, and seeing that scene, Bakker phoned Horner and said cheekily, "I told you he was a hunter!"
Just because herbivores don't eat meat, it doesn't mean that they're non-violent and non-aggressive. The movies tend to make carnivores scary and antagonistic simply because they eat meat. But in real-life, carnivores are extremely cautious and only get in on the action when they need to fight or defend themselves. They can NOT risk any injury or else it gets infected, and prevents the predator from hunting, which could end up starving them Herbivores can be VERY violent and aggressive, and can fight at their utmost at the drop of a hat. They fight just so they can live, and WILL risk injury. Plenty of herbivores such as hippos, rhinos, elephants, zebras, and wildebeest are extremely aggressive and will go out of their way to violently attack others just because they feel unsafe, sometimes they even intentionally seek out carnivores and their young to kill, and they also can seek revenge
Dude, I wouldn’t even mess with regular cows! In the U.K., hikers and walkers are warned to steer clear of them as they’ve caused injuries like fractured bones, lacerations, punctured lungs, bruising, black eyes, joint dislocation, nerve damage, unconsciousness and in some cases, death.
@@Pridam in fact Herbivores are known to cause more human deaths than carnivores everyday you hear reports of people being trampled on by elephants and deer you hear about people being savagely ripped apart by hippos there have even been reports of people being killed by gorillas and other types of apes
Awe, the screams of an entire movie audience when that velociraptor poked its head through the hole in the ground. What you didn't catch at the start is Ian and the others signed a Non-Disclosure agreement before they went to the islands. Ian broke that agreement upon returning after the events of the first movie and writing a book about his experience on the island. The company, Ingen, then proceeded to write him off as a kook and conspiracy theorist, hence the reason few want to listen to him at the start.
11:24 The insert shots of the hurricane making islandfall in the first movie is the jetty to the inlet they used for this scene here. You land in Kauai, take a left out of the airport's parking lot and you'll be at the street that parallels the jetty in about five minutes. Nearby is the hotel the cast and crew stayed at and also took shelter in when hurricane Iniki struck the island (those insert shots were filmed during the actual hurricane.)
Also the repeated jabs at 90s tech being primitive and barely-functional is ironic considering this movie and all the CG was done with, you know, 90s tech.
There is an extended version of this movie. In it, the hunter and Arjay have a scene where Arjay convinces (practically begs) the hunter to come out of retirement. Its a pretty cool scene and gives you a prequel to how badass of a character he's going to be.
there's another scene. remember that ship with T-Rex. i remember watch it, when one of person go near T-Rex but got attacked and that's why the ship lose control. i trying to search that scene on internet but I can't find it anywhere. i remember watch it on TV. but now every copy is from remastered version where that scene is deleted. someone said only fox tv VHS version got that scene
Dr Hammond is different from the books because the actor is so charismatic they changed some things. In the books he is a jerk and the villain, but in the movies he is a naive dreamer with too much power and resourses, in the first movie he is not bad, but he is wrong, in the second he tries to correct his errors, but fails in some degree for different reasons
21:17 There’s a lost scene where Peter Ludlow accidentally falls on the baby T-Rex’s leg and breaks it. Roland Timbo had a different plan in mind when luring the Rex out so he can hunt it, Ludlow was just clumsy and lost his footing.
One of the sad things about Eddie’s death is that the rifle shouldn’t have even needed that front sight. Also, fun fact: when the a-hole Dieter was attacked by the small dinosaurs, in the scenes where they are biting him and tearing at his flesh, they’re actually just rubbing pieces of material on the actor to make it look like flesh is being moved. Another fun fact is the the crew of the boat were all dead because in a previous draft of the script there were meant to be some raptors on board that managed to escape. They ended up changing it, but didn’t account for how the crew died. Something else I think bears mentioning is that the creatures in these movies technically aren’t real dinosaurs. They possess some dinosaur DNA, sure. But the InGen scientists had to fill in missing sequences with frog DNA, which technically makes them entirely new and unique genetically engineered creatures that are partially based on dinosaur DNA.
Which is your favourite Dinosaur ?! Mine is named for an Aztec deity, was probably the biggest animal with wings to exist. Quetzalcoatlus was the largest flying dinosaur in the history of the world. Even to this day, it is still the largest flying animal of all time.
That rifle is a .600 nitro express. Two where made for the movie. Spielberg has one of them now. It will kill anything on this planet. The manufacturer jokingly but accurately said it will kill dragons. Each round of .600 is $100.00 each. You wanna hunt dinosaurs, this IS what you would use.
The first movie: "Oh, yay! Dinosaurs!"
The second movie: "Oh shit! Dinosaurs!"
The third movie, through a megaphone: "What's a bad idea?"

oh wow 😭
Well, that was actually just mentioned in the book, you don't read the scene itself play out in the chapter. The first scene is a teenage kid being helicopter-rushed to an emergency clinic and saying he was attacked by a raptor before dying, and then a scene very similar to the first of this movie, with a young girl (named "Tina" [short for Christina] encountering the Procompsognathus and being attacked [though she survives] ), and eventually, we get to scenes more similar to the first film, with Dr. Alan Grant and his team digging up a raptor fossil (called Velociraptor but in the region where they would actually be excavating Deinonychus or Utahraptor fossils).
@@kestrelraptorial689 its still the first Dinosaur encounter in the book tho. It's short and brief, but my god Ill never forget the first time I read that part,
This ain't the book buddy
I just love how at the end the baby gets his first kill and the dad is just looking like: "I'm so proud of ye son!"
“WAY TO GO SON, THATS BY BOY” -Eddie Murphy
Yeah, me and my family love to put words into that moment.
"Go on son. Just like I showed ya."
"Roar!" *baby kills*
"Daaah, that's my son."
That's one of my favorite scenes. Lol.

In a deleted scene, Roland Tembo, the hunter leader, expresses regret over the animals he's killed, likening it more to a firing squad than proper hunting. With his everest quote, I think he went to the island not so much because he wants a Rex trophy, but because he wants one last true hunt, where the animal might actually win. He got what he wanted, the animals won, but it's his best friend who died, and he immediately gives up on his vanity project.
In my opinion, coupled with the fact he rescued the protagonists after being sabotaged, this makes him more redeemable than Nick.
He's such a cool character, they cut too much of his stuff. They left his bar introduction scene in the tv version curiously
Not to mention in the same deleted scene he decked out a self entitled macho wannabe asshole who was getting handsy with a local waitress against her protestation. Mind you according to Rajay it was because Roland was "bored," but it still makes it hard to dislike the guy
People are nowadays just way too attached to animals.
If you a hunter in real life, there are lunatics that immediately shun you.
This movie came out in a time where people didn’t mark someone as a monster for being a hunter thankfully
What did Nick do?
@sonicfan117dash2 Broke the dinosaurs out, got it so everyone was stuck together with the InGen crew losing their radio equipment. Indirectly caused the Rexes to follow them. Took the bullets from Roland's gun so he couldn't protect his men when they were attacked in the night. Responsible for the Buck being captured and brought to San Diego since Roland had no bullets. Multiple casualties were caused by him trying to protect the dinos through any means necessary. He's literally the token evil teammate of Hammond's team.
The raptors closing in through the long grass is among my favorite movie shots ever
It’s a fantastic shot! I also like the recent homage to it in Prey.
"DON'T GO INTO THE LONG GRASS!!!" everyone run's into the long grass, including the guy who told them not to, no one ever listens to the smartes guy, not even the smartest guy who said it lol, one of the best scenes ever, no doubt about that
Don't run into the long grass! Then proceeds to follow them into the long grass.
@@masterofoblivion7963 yes, I meant the shot from above with the raptors converging on the idiots, not the idiots themselves
Yeah the humans were fish in a barrel in that field. Raptors must've been talking crazy 💩, like "Stupid humans, you take all of the challenge out of dinner"
49:04 Yes, that was actually a Godzilla reference.
I'm not sure if anyone's mentioned this fact yet but apparently one of the men running is saying, ""I left Japan to get away from this!"
actually that's the Inspect Gadget movie where they do that joke
I always headcanonned him as saying that regardless 😂
Mandela effect
yes a japaness man its great
I was gonna make this comment :) Also the very next scene you see a guy get eaten as he tries to run, He is either a producer or the script writer I forget but I think its a cool easter egg.
I'm sure someone else has already talked about this but here's a few answers to certain questions.
1. These movies were filmed in Hawaii, JP1 (Jurassic Park) was filmed during an actual hurricane in Hawaii. The storm destroyed a couple of sets and even caused a few errors with the Animatronic Rex at one point. Although the island name in the movie is "Isla Nublar"
2. JP2 (The Lost World) is set on the island "Isla Sorna" or Site B as they called it. This island was abandoned and left for the creatures to fend for themselves. However, due to the beginning with the little girl's incident, InGen was taken from John Hammond by his nephew. Not really sure if you noticed but Hammond did say the girl survived and was alright, she was just injured.
Also, regarding the crew of the ship, there's supposedly a deleted scene that reveals some Raptors snuck on the ship and killed them. Don't know why it was cut, but that's what I heard.
@@kagemaru9773 I heard about that too, they took out several scenes for being to dark/graphic for a pg-13 rating
Further trivia the scene with that British family at the beginning is actually a scene from the first book. Which is the extent of similarity this movie has to the actual second book.
@Kagemaru it wasn't filmed, if I remember correctly I believe there was concept art that people took to show raptors in what appears might be a boat but isn't clear. This video goes into what happened to the crew th-cam.com/video/jEahCE2Gvdg/w-d-xo.html
They didn’t actually film any full scenes during the storm in the first movie. They did get a bit of footage, however, such as the waves crashing against the rocks.
The T-Rex scene was filmed on a sound stage with Hollywood rain. The malfunctioning T-Rex was because Stan Winston’s crew built it with foam latex skin, and didn’t know Spielberg was going to film the scene with rain. So, when they were filming, the animatronic would “shiver” because the system that allowed its movement wasn’t calibrated for the extra weight that had accumulated because the foam latex soaked up a bunch of the water they were raining down on the T Rex. They had to pay it down with towels to dry it out before resuming filming.
Fun fact: did you know that Isla Nublar is Spanish for “Cloud Island”? According to the book it was named this for the perpetual cloud of mist hanging over the island. Which, funny enough, was perfect for creating a dinosaur theme park
Roland was actually a really good dude. There were 3 deleted scenes in particular that really made Roland look like an awesome human being.
Stella is the true hero of this reaction!
Any person that can identify both dinosaurs and non venomous snakes is an immediate top tier person.
For sure!!!
Red on yellow kills a fellow, red on black venom lack 💪
Does that make me top tier too?
@@freelands8355 Sure are!!
@@jr_irizarry I remember reading that in a book all about snakes as a kid, and the way my book phrases it was "red touch yellow, kill a fellow, red touch black, friend of Jack" 🤣
Roland may have been a hunter but he did have a sense of morality. There is a deleted scene where aj and Roland are discussing the new job that AJ has meanwhile a group of young men are hassling a waitress so Roland goes over to the table,beats them up and makes them apologize to the waitress
Implying that hunters don't normally have a sense of morality.
Also in the script it explains how the baby Rex got its leg broken. Ludlow is an alcoholic, as he's often seen with his flask. He gets drunk and stumbles backwards, stepping on the rex's leg, breaking it. Roland admonishes him for it. I wish they had kept this scene because otherwise it makes it look like Roland broke the leg to cause the baby to call out in pain.
@@AnAmericanMusician Hunters who hunt just for trophies because they like to predate and kill are not high in the list of people with good morale values. Furthermore, in this case they were borderline between hunters and poachers.
@Roberto Prestigiacomo Hunters can hunt for the trophy. Call it unethical, but it is what it is. Poachers are only interested in specific parts of the animal for selling, typically wasting most of the animal as a result.
My personal rules are:
1. Don't hunt anything sacred/endangered
2. Use the animal afterward
@Roberto Prestigiacomo You do know why they have trophy hunters, right? Most wildlife preserves need to keep animals numbers under a certain level so they give out tags to hunt one and the money from those tags goes towards the park. At least responsible ones anyways. Otherwise they will need to cull animals to keep the parks ecosystem from collapsing.
Sorry to burst your bubble but the people who hunt these animals are the ones who love them the most. Their money helps protect the species from going extinct. The ones that hunt caged animals and poachers are the people you should hate.
31:22 Eddie is pretty much the definition of "hard carry" (fun fact, his last name is actually Carr), in every sense.
He did not deserve his fate.
And a couple of the supposed "heroes" are to blame for his death, along with many others.
The tall grass scene has stayed with me since childhood. A lot of people stay away from the rest of the franchise, but I think they're all fun in their own ways.
Whenever I play Pokémon and a route forces me into the grass, I think of that “don’t go into the tall grass” line. XD And heck, sometimes just irl when I see tall grass, lol.
For the next five years, that scene would be replicated a million times. The mummy returns being the most 1-to-1.
I used to call the Utah/velo raptors in that movie and that movie only sneakers 😂
When I was like 5
The overhead shot of the raptors darting in on the group through the grass is legit one of the coolest shots in the series.
It always makes me sad seeing Eddie die. He really was the only one being helpful. Also yea, Roland, despite being a game hunter, is a pretty cool dude and much smarter than the leads lol
Yeah. Eddie is the best character.😢
like he just wanted to hunt and beat 1 bull trex and that was it, compared to the excessive greed and assholery of the rest of the group, Roland was always a favourite for me
Also, as a mention, The compys eating the guy that was trying to pee, the reason why it was hard for him to fight back is because in the novel, the compys had a venomous bite that hard a similiar effect to drowsiness, drunkiness, like torpidity to it, so it basically makes the victim sluggish, sleepy n numb. so when his lip was bit, he was immediately envenomated, he began to panic and as u see by the end he couldnt really run well or climb well.
Kinda like the Troodons in one of the games.
@@shinkicker404Yeah, except the troodons were nightmarish and brutal
@@shinkicker404 Ark: Survival Evolved Troodons are basically just like them as well
Thats also how hammond died in the first book which is why it was put in this movie.
@@Milo_hAt3rThe Compys were nightmare fuel in the books
Fun thing with Burke; the paleontologist with the hat. He’s based on a real guy, Robert Bakker. At the time, Bakker posited that the rex was an active hunter, while the advisor for Jurassic park, Jack Horner, believed it to be an obligate scavenger. (The truth is probably both, like most large predatory animals) Reportedly, Bakker loved the caricature, and when he saw Burke die, he sent a message to Horner saying “See, I told you T. rex was a hunter!”
Thank you!
Ian has NEVER been on this island (Site B) until he came to rescue Sarah. When he ended up on the island, Ian became the Dino expert in his group as he learned everything that he did from Alan and Ellie. It's just too bad no one listened to him until it's too late.
I like that small detail
I adore this movie but always get so annoyed, Sarah claims she’s been around predators since she was 20 but walks around an island full of carnivorous dinosaurs in a shirt covered in wet blood 😂💀
fr the script of this movie is definitely not as tight and doesn't make as much sense as the first....but it's still so damn cool though lol
Definitely not something anyone with common sense never mind a professional with experience would do.
Clever girl.
that does raise a good point
She so annoying.
Fun fact: In the Jurassic Park book, Hammond had actually fallen down a hill into a creek, injuring himself, and ended up falling prey to Compy's. In this movie, they used that scene on that idiot which I felt was very fitting. Therefore, in The Lost World book, it was recordings of Hammond talking about the dinos used as he had already died.
Edit: Also, the comment of the Rex steering the ship is something I had no idea I wanted to see done. 😂
Doesn’t Malcolm die in the book too?
He supposedly died in the first but Michael Crichton brought him back to be in the 2nd book.
Really fun fact: The guy that got eaten by the T-Rex while running into a video store was the movie's screenwriter.
I watched this movie in theaters on opening weekend while on family vacation as a kid. I have this great memory of my grandmother screaming "THEY'RE IN THE GRASS, LOOK OUT, THEY'RE IN THE GRASS!". It was if she thought the mercs could hear her, she was that freaked out. It cracks me up even till this day.
“Peace and love to Eddie but would that be enough?” I LOST IT because that’s the same thought when I saw it at theatre at 7 years old
One thing the film doesn't show unless you watch the deleted scenes and story board, Rowland gets mad at Ludlow for breaking the baby rex's leg by stepping on it while drunk.
They explained that the dinosaurs are able to survive because the island has lysine rich foods so the herbivores eat the plants absorbing the lysine and the carnivores kill the herbivores absorbing the lysine from them. Therefore the island can sustain the dinosaurs.
Edit: during the San Diego incident the man with the glasses who gets eaten is David Koepp, the screenwriter for this movie.
I really hope Stella sees this because she is 100% right about the tire being added for 3D effect! I saw this movie in theatres and it flies right in your face. I thought it was cheesy even back then 🤣
Let me be one to say that the toys and action figures released for these first two movies were so darn awesome! Great decade for kids toys, and from plenty of movies not for kids (such as Aliens, which had amazing action figures!).
HECK YEA im 30 and I still have my childhood The Lost World raptor plush on my bed 😂 The merch was SO COOL
Had an original T-Rex and Ford Explorer from the original film. Along with action figures and raptors
I remember watching this in the cinema when it was released and being kinda shocked when the first "half" was over. Movies over 2 hours weren't unheard of but kinda rare for big blockbusters. So when the movie went from the classic island adventure into the city "Kaiju horror" the entire hall went crazy because it felt like two movies in one. I watched it twice in a week and loved it.
Roland may be a hunter but he's actually a pretty decent person. There's a deleted scene that shows the kind of person he is. And he didn't break the Rex's leg either That was what's his name. The douchebag with the glasses that gets eaten by the baby at the end. He fell on it and broke his leg pretty much. And roland about kicks his ass for it. Just because he wants to hunt the buck doesn't mean he's cruel. There is definitely a lot about them that they left out. Also Nick was really the biggest enemy in this movie. While he did stop the dinosaurs from being taken to the mainland for the most part it was because of him that the rex was captured and the whole San Diego incident happened. If he hadn't taken the shells out of that nitro Express, Roland would have killed the buck rather than sedated him
So awesome to see you, Nobu, Hailey and Stella react to _The Lost World: Jurassic Park_ following the first film’s reaction last week.
While, it doesn’t top the original film, it still holds up thanks to Jeff Goldblum performance as Ian Malcolm, the visual effects and seeing more familiar and new dinosaurs.
Looking forward to your reaction to the third film next week and the _Jurassic World_ films.
whats really, really funny is the beginning with Hammond and Ian's convo, is if you pay attention to the context...
"she- she came to me, i want you to know this!" was Hammond fumbling around because Ian was gonna call everyone and call off the expedition, and then when Ian questions Sarah and says "when Hammond called you, why didnt you say something to me?" she doesnt even say that Hammond called her, she says "you'd tie me to the bed" which implies, Hammond contacted Sarah. which kinda implies that Hammond knew if he got Sarah onto that Island, he could get Ian to go as well. everything was set up to get Ian to go because Hammond knew, no matter what he did, Ian would not go back.
***avid JP lover, read both books, and im still learning new contexts and such within the movies***
Originally, it was supposed to be a pack of Velociraptors that killed everyone on the ship. But it was changed at the last minute. That's why it doesn't make sense that the T-Rex killed everyone, even people inside areas the Rex can't fit in, but it still got locked up somehow.
Tembo's character development is great: in the end he realises that what he wants - to hunt a T-rex - is not worth that which he had: his friendship with Ajay.
42:58 The rifle Rolland used was a .600 Nitro Express. The cartridges cost about $100 EACH! An experienced safari hunter like Rolland should've brought more than two rounds, but it's possible his extra cartridges were lost in the chaos.
Fun fact: According to IMFDB, there were two fully functional .600 Nitro Express rifles made for this film made by B. Searcy & Co. in California. An like many rifles of this type, their cost were in the tens of thousands of dollars PER UNIT! Spielberg supposedly kept one of the rifles after production.
My assumption is that his extra bullets were probably in his partner Ajay’s bag. But Ajay ran away with everyone else, so he couldn’t get to them.
In Victorian-style safari hunting, the hunter would usually be accompanied by a "bearer," whose role was to haul the equipment - including extra ammunition - so that the hunter could move to get the shot unencumbered.
Arjay would have been a close friend and trusted sidekick to have gone through the sort of adventures that the film implies Tembo had, so it makes sense that Tembo was so devastated by his death.
Fun fact: Sarah's father is Dr. Earl Harding. Dr. Harding is who Ellie Sattler was working with in the first movie when dealing with the sick Triceratops.
Another fun fact: The character Alan Grant is a stand in for real life paleontologist Jack Horner- whose theories about Dinosaurs is what the dinosaurs of the movies are based on.
Bob is a fictional stand in for real life Paleontologist- Bob Baker (mentioned in the first movie). The two were rivals with many conflicting theories and thus Bob was written into the movie to die. Something that actually amused Bob Baker.
Yaaaay! I'm so happy you guys are doing this series! I hope you react to them all, even the not-so-good ones. They're still fun to watch! Gotta love dinosaurs!

47:58 kid, tomorrow morning : " My dog ate my homework , then a T-rex ate him.. and i got a picture to prove it this time ! "
I remember there was a cereal when this came out. It was like Lucky Charms, had regular cereal along with marshmallow dinosaurs. I think they also had an oatmeal variety, where the marshmallow bits were eggs, and the heat of the oatmeal would melt the egg part and reveal the dinosaurs inside. Just something I remember about this film from when I was a kid.
Yes! The dinosaur egg oatmeal was my favorite!
I like how Ian character has changed in this movie than he was in the 2nd one. Being on that island in the first movie really did help him to become a better person. Also I found it really stupid that Sarah did ditch the Jacket when she had the baby T-Rex blood on it. She must have known than the parents will try to follow the trace. Cannot wait to see you react to the 3rd one. No spoilers but I have to tell you but Alan returns in it. My favourite character.

I think it wouldn't matter whether Sarah kept the jacket or not because everyone who was i that van would still carrie their own personal smell and hidns of the blood may have been in there hair/ on their skin as well. That also gos for Nick.
According to the book, the family in the opening was somewhere they weren't supposed to be, as it was illegal for any boat or plane to approach within a kilo of Islas Nublar or Sorna and their small yacht had slipped past the Costa Rican navy unnoticed. They had no idea what island this was and its dangers, and neither did their crew, as Isla Sorna was MUCH LESS well known than Isla Nublar where the original events happened. They knew they weren't at Isla Nublar and thought this island was safe and okay to land at.
The little girl was very badly torn up, but she LIVED. When she succumbed to Compy venom and its muscle-locking paralysis, she landed upright on her knees, meaning the Compies couldn't reach her vital organs or the major arteries in her inner thighs, and weren't strong enough to knock her over. Though they VERY badly ripped up her lower arms, legs, and thighs all the way up to the waist, they were unable to kill her in the time between when she started screaming and the time her parents and the yacht crew arrived to find her and drive the Compies off and provide immediate first aid.
She lived, but it was a hell of a traumatic experience and she wound up badly scarred for life both physically and emotionally.
Eddie, aside from Ian, was the MVP on the team. And I think, out of all the deaths in Jurassic Park/World frainchise, Eddie's was the most heroic. Man did his best to save the others while attempting to fend off the Buck and Doe T-Rex before he got... wishboned. RIP Eddie Carr.
Not sure if someone already mentioned this but... Roland didn't break the baby T-Rex's leg. It was an intoxicated Ludlow who tripped and fell on the infant dino resulting in the broken leg in the movie. There are two still of this deleted scene; wish this scene was included in the film though.
Other than Ian and Eddie, I like to view the In-Gen team as the real heroes. Sarah and Nick were the ones making the dumb decisions that jeopardized everyone. Besides Sarah leading the rex with her bloody jacket, Nick taking Roland’s bullets prevented him from potentially killing the Rex and saving lives.
But them going in and disturbing the whole island is what causes most problems in the first place. Most of the dumb decisions by the good guys happen in reaction to that.
Heck, if it wasn't for the InGen board deciding to start their second park project, the first team wouldn't have been needed either, as the only reason Hammond sent them was to promote turning the island(s) into nature preserves when he lost his control over the company.
@@0815UserII but if Nick didn't mess with Roland's gun, the T-Rex wouldn't have escaped in San Diego and killed a bunch of people and caused all that damage.
@@happiestaku6646 True, but the InGen team going all Pokemon on the Island is what brought the first team into the position to make their dumb decisions in the first place and ultimately brought the T-Rex to San Diego, so I have a really hard time giving them the hero label.
@@happiestaku6646 I would argue the San Diego incident isn't ultimately Nick's fault (though I agree stealing the bullets was a bonehead move). In the movie, they mention that the two darts Roland hit the rex with caused it to stop breathing. The InGen team then gave it something to counteract the effects. If they hadn't given it anything, it would have just died there on the island, just as it would have if Roland had hit it with the bullets.
Blame the idiots who wrote the script.
Hell yeah I'm glad you guys are continuing the movies, the lost world is my absolute favorite in the franchise. I love the T-Rex running around San Diego and the raptor scene in the tall grass and not going to lie I wished I had a compy when I was kid.
The embryos won't come back because they've long since died. The can had enough insulation to keep them cooled(cryostasis I suppose) for 48 hours or so if I remember right. The rival company wanted viable(living) embryos.
The focus on the can getting buried in the mud was, I think, more for the irony. The first movie went terribly wrong when it did due to Nedry's greed. He sabotaged the park, stole the embryos, and ultimately got four people killed(The lawyer, Mr. Arnold , Muldoon, and himself) and endangered six others, including two children). All for money. But it backfired on him since he died and the embryos were lost. It was a dramatic irony.
The compys are my favorite because of how underestimated they are; Crichton explained in the original novel that compys had a venomous saliva which is similar to that of the indian king cobra, tho less dangerous and more primitive.
Basically, after being bitten, the prey becomes sedated and defenseless. Compys hunted in large groups and were basically scavengers. They tended to attack only sick, injured, or similarly weak animals.
In the original Jurassic Park novel some packs of them managed to reach Costa Rica and mostly attacked babies/little children, especially when they were asleep. Also, the opening scene from the movie is taken from the original Jurassic Park novel where a young girl who was on vacation with her family in Costa Rica got attacked at the beach.
Later on in the novel, the compys were found eating the carcass of Dennis Nedry. They also killed John Hammond who'd fallen down a hill. This scene, which is narrated in Hammond's point of view, shows how the poison not only makes him sleepy but also gives him a peaceful feeling and he doesn't even fully realize he's dying as they eat him.
In the movies this whole issue is actually never mentioned. But it seems they tend to hunt in large groups and the attack on Dieter Stark obviously has an element of revenge because he electrocuted one of them. His end does seem inspired by Hammond's novel death.
I think the thing with Hammond here is that he is not in the second book. This means that for the film they have to find a way to get him in (and to get Richard Attenborough back). As a result there was no natural place for him to fit in to the story, meaning his appearances and story arc are all a bit forced.
But, having said that, as a character, I can see that he still loves what he helped to create and sees them as innocent creatures that need to be protected. I think if we had a longer, or an extra scene, with him at the start we may have seen this more, but that scene was all about Ian's quips and rushing through the reason to get him on the island and get us seeing dinosaurs.
Still, at least these two films had the books to go off of, after this the franchise has to start coming up with completely original stuff, and that's where it struggles I think. Just my opinion.
IDK he was handling almost all exposition the last time so it seems kinda natural that he only delivers exposition here.
@@michaelklaus True, but he had a bigger part in the first and more time to deliver that exposition. I think it could have worked here if more time had been given to it.
You know I always wondered what happened to Dr. Sarah Harding and Ian’s daughter, Kelly Curtis following this film since they never appeared nor were they mentioned in the Jurassic World movies.
the daughter probably grew up, went to college as a gymnast and doesn't get involved with dinos, Ian would probably do his best to keep all of his kids away from this shit. Kelly most likely has some severe PTSD when it comes to the dinosaurs.
be grateful for that
The islands are all Hawaii and yes, people visit certain ranches that were used as sets for the films; some even still have abandoned sets to visit.
Yeah, lots of jump scares in this movie lol
Also, R.I.P the poor dog who got eaten
(side note: I hate that family for leaving the poor thing chained outside)
"I'll be back in 5 or 6 days"
"You'll be back in 5 or 6 pieces"
Favorite line.
I love the Tyrannosaurus rex designs in this movie. The camouflage coloration fits perfectly with their redwood habitat. I might be a minority on this one, but I think the T. rex designs in The Lost World are better than the one in Jurassic Park.
I love how they talk about the "90's tech" like it is some ancient technology. They are hunting dinosaurs with a sundial and an abacus! lol
You should definitely watch the Jurassic World franchise too, people give it a lot of crap, but they’re great "leave your brain outside films" and the dinosaurs get cooler and cooler, especially the raptors. Every movie has a great raptor scene! Also good luck with screaming lady in the third Jurassic Park, her character is the only one that kinda gets annoying. Also the references in Jurassic world are great, they tie back a lot of stuff, particularly the third film! Its great!
I watched the first Jurassic World on HBO and I didn’t care for it. I’m so sick of reboots and remakes and sequels
@@nsasupporter7557Jurassic World is ok...The ending was really fun. But the series goes down hill really quick after.
I agree with your sentiment about Hollywood lazily regurgitating movie franchises.
I agree with your opinion on Jurassic world trilogy. It’s a great watch Dino’s eat people film series. After The lost World Jurassic park the story isn’t really important to the films after that point. Which makes sense because there’s only two books(even though the two movies deviate from the books quite heavily) if they followed the books there wouldn’t even be the current Jurassic world. Because several main characters shouldn’t even be alive. But yea. I feel the first two have good story and messages behind them because they get the messages from the books they’re based off of. Soooo when they go past the mind behind the books it’s just Hollywood writing at that point.
@@icanhazgoodgame3845 and what doesn’t help is the fact that so many fans blindly want more sequels 😣🙄
You really have to leave your brain way outside. I agree, if you just want to see CGI dinos they are worth a watch. Otherwise they are garbage. Every scene, especially any raptor scene, feels like it was written by a focus group of middle school boys just going "Dude, imagine if..." or "It would be so cool...". Then the shitty writers cobbled those disjoint ideas into a film by creating a story to tie them all together that didn't make sense. Just lazy writing, shallow character development, and terrible plot ideas.
I feel like such a fish out of water seeing reactors all reflexively giving Roland and Ajay hate. When I was a kid Roland was one of the coolest characters I remember in a movie. He's the only one to go through an arc (and not die). I wish there was more of him in it.
Same, but the actor passed away not long after, so unless they recast him (which they shouldn't in my honest opinion), he won't come back unless they do so in comic form.
His deleted scenes were great too.
@@happiestaku6646 Peter Postelthwaithe lived until 2011.
None of the sequels compare to the original Jurassic Park film, but I still think the entire series (both trilogies) is very enjoyable to watch. I am not saying they are anywhere near perfect films, but they are nice, fun films.
Yes ma'am 💯😍 and hey that last part where the really mean old greedy guy's begging like OMG Please Noo Wait Wait Wait Wait!! Then Crunching him to feed him to baby Rexy it was actually pretty funny looking would you agree with me?
4:14 lol best jump scare. I love this movie because back in the 90s this one premiered with tons of merch to buy and you could get all the ingen tech as toys and play hunter with your dinosaur toys lol. Great reaction guys. The third one is still lots of fun and have some of the most epic scenes of the whole franchise.
This was a fun sequel, but it’s definitely not as good as the masterpiece original. As a kid, this was my favorite of the trilogy instead of the original. I don't know why, but I guess I liked the T-Rex's family dynamic.
I agree, the original is always hard to beat, but it was still really awesome. The two T-Rex's are couple goals😂. "Mommy's very angry".
I actually liked 2 and 3 way more than the first one.
Agreed, this one was entertaining but not as good as the first one

Fun fact, the Japanese people running, one of them really said, "I moved from Tokyo to get away from this!"
Best sequel by far, and tends to be underrated because critics didn’t like it. The trailer scene is one of my favorites in the series and Roland Tembo is definitely my favorite character in all of the films, only surpassed by the novel’s version of Robert Muldoon. I really feel like Spielberg took a lot of inspiration from Capstick’s Death in the Long Grass and I wish his backstory scenes weren’t cut from the final film, as they make his character even better. Despite many differences from the novel, it’s great seeing the dinosaurs with established territories and a big focus on their parental care. This film also does the best job with aggressive herbivores, albeit for only some brief moments. You’re good stopping here; the series goes downhill after this, though JP3 does have some nice cgi and animatronics.
Plenty of people who aren't critics dislike this movie. 😂
It's the start of a seemingly endless mission to make this the dumbest franchise in the world.
Never said it was only critics that disliked it. Yes, it’s not a perfect film, with plenty of flaws, but it’s still respectful to the dinosaurs and has good themes of parental care and responsibility. Nowhere near as good as the first film though.
Honestly I actually like the 3rd slightly more than the 2nd.
Agreed it was absolutely the best sequel by far. The last 20 minutes brought it down a little bit, but everything on the island, was just as good as Jurassic Park. Jurassic Park is a 10 this is easily a 9. Jurassic Park 3 is an abortion and an embarrassment to the franchise. But this is the best sequel by far.
Yeah, the San Diego incident felt slapped on from another movie…because it was. It was supposed to be the main plot for JP3, but then Spielberg realized he wouldn’t be directing that film, so he crammed it into TLW.
T-Rex steering the boat totally cracked me up! It always put me in mind of that scene in Dracula, where it's just a ghost ship, but seems to steer itself. (Dracula is driving) 😂 He also ate everyone aboard.
The Jurassic Park book opened with a compy (the little dinosaurs) eating a baby. I've always felt that the compy attack of the little girl in the opening of 2 was a great homage to that.
There was another incident from the book where an older kid was bitten by a single Compy. The find said Compy half-eaten by a monkey, and from there we learn about the park. I think the movie scene is more a shout out to that.
The scene with the little girl encountering the compeys definitely based on the same scene in the first book of a vacationing Rich couple who go to a secluded beach and their little girl finds the compeys. When the doctor is treating her he or his nurse have her draw a picture of the supposed reptile that bit her and the nurse realizes it looks like a dinosaur because her son is so into dinosaurs. Then the doctor sends a photocopy of the drawing to Allen Grant to get his opinion and that's just about when Hammond shows up at their dig.
Sarah and Nick are the villains of this story. Every death that occurs does as a direct result of their actions.
For sure!!!
No death at all would have happened had moneybag Ludlow not wanted to greed off the animals
Hold on, Roland and Ajay were the ones who kidnapped the baby Rex from its nest, directly antagonizing the parents for no other reason than thrill-seeking hunting. And Ludlow is the one who broke its leg while drunk. The chain of events start with them.
@LolloBlue96 Seems like victim blaming to me. Ludlow is doing his job, saving ingen from bankruptcy, and doing something every zoo in the world has done. The people he hires are well supplied and aware of the risks, he did not manipulate any of them or lie about their purpose.
@ALK82 The most that could have happened was that Ajay and Roland would have died trying to kill the buck, it was Nick's hero complex that turned a controlled situation into a blood bath. First by his sabotage, then his attempt at rescuing the baby rex and finally his taking Roland's bullets.
Roland gave up seeking out the trophy as soon as others were in peril, Nick never stopped sabotaging the survivors.
awesome video and discussion :) regarding the embryos: in the first movie, it's mentioned that there's only enough coolant in the canister to keep them safe for a few days, after which they (presumably) would no longer be viable. no spoilers for future installments ofc, but there's only so much you can assume about that barbasol can, haha
There is a game that does use that scene to set another adventure with dinos. It’s a really cool game. With awesome cut scenes. I recommend it.
I'm not sure why there is so much concern about the can. The lab still probably had dozens of embryos left , he didn't steal them all.
My favorite moment in this movie is probably that bit near the end, where the T-Rex escapes into the city, and Ian leans over to Peter and says: "Now, you're John Hammond."
18:37 Out of all the "baddies," Roland's the best. He's basically the Muldoon of this film.
That's what I always thought too when I saw the two movies when they came out.
3:41 best transition in movie history lmao

49:13 Fun fact, this is David Koepp, the screen writer of the film, he was credited in this scene as “Unlucky Bastard” in the end credits
This movie has always been my favorite out of the series for its darker and more horror oriented tone. Absolutely love it!
The best parts of this movie are the effects and Jeff Goldblum’s sarcasm, lol.
I have some issues with Jurassic World, but I still found it an entertaining movie, though I haven't watched any of the sequels since Jurassic World.
Personally I really like TLW because of Jeff Goldblum, Ian Malcolm's character change after the trauma of the events of the first movie feel really realistic, while he keeps his style of dry humour but with more touches of dark humour to it.
I LOVE the Malcolm scene, the editing from the Island to him is genius.
Also, fellow Stegosaurus fan. I don't know why but i always found these "adorable" xD
This movie got a lot of shit but as a kid I must have rewatched the entire island story 100 times. It's just fun having a group of humans dealing with dinosaurs on the loose with zero control over them.
Ian feels like a different character but I still thought he was really funny with the sarcasm.
I reckon it might have been a deliberate character choice - he's still him, but toned down a little from the traumatic events they all went through - that probably changes a person?
Exactly this is my favorite one Yes the original is really good and the obvious classic But this one is really exciting
I feel like he is, but that's because of the changes in the movie vs book. I know there was a book version but they had to be careful because "The Lost World" was a book by Arthur Conan Doyle and....as a Sherlock Holmes fan, going up against the Doyle estate is...not good.
The ending with the ship is a jarring plot hole though
This sequel was all right for me. I liked it, the suspension, the dinosaurs. The 2 Jurassic Park books that the first 2 movies are based of are a thriller horror must read.
Fun fact: I believe it was Steven Spielberg self asked the author: Michael Crichton, to make another Jurassic Park book just so he could make sequel. In 1995, the second book came out and in 1997 the sequel movie came out.
The scene with the little girl on the beach was in the Jurassic Park book. This is how the outside world finds out about the island. A doctor treats the girls wounds and then goes back to find out what bit her. He finds a monkey eating one. He sends the remains to the city museum. This whole sub plot was cut from the Jurassic park movie.
That window cracks like regular plate glass, but in a mobile trailer it should have been laminated glass which has a plastic layer that holds the glass layers together if they crack, or tempered safety glass that shatters into tiny cubelike pieces that are less dangerous than large shards. But that wouldn't be sufficiently suspenseful or dramatic.
That opening scene: NOT what they meant when they said "Eat the rich", LOL!
13:14-13:15 - It’s Kind of funny and ironic that *EVERYONE* especially Stella were able to recognize Julianne Moore in _The Lost World: Jurassic Park_ yet in their most recent group reaction of _Children of Men_ which also starred Julianne Moore in both the TH-cam edit and in the full version, none of them recognized nor did they *EVER* mentioned Julianne Moore being in _Children Of Men_
Even it goes further that during their _Annihilation_ reaction aside from recognizing Natalie Portman and Oscar Isaac none of them recognize the other actors especially Tessa Thompson and Gina Rodriguez.
To answer your question about the embryos that Nedry stole, in the cafe scene with Nedry and Dodgson Nedry was told the coolant in the can only last 48 hours, after that the embryos will get too warm and expire. So after Nedry lost the can while getting killed the embryos are lost and there's nothing further to that plot line.
The thing with the embryos is that the can only had 36 hours of coolant to keep them viable. It was over the second Nedry dropped the cannister.
My house when I was growing up was located at a very busy intersection in San Diego. I used to think the T-Rex was coming down the street because I would hear loud thumping. It would always just be a car that eventually would drive past with a loud ass bass. But I’d look out the window every time just to be sure. 😂 Jurassic Park is definitely a horror series for 90s kids.
So a interesting piece of confirmed canon. The sick Triceratops in the first movie was being treated by Jurassic Park veterinarian referred to as Doctor Harding. Turns out he is actually Sarah Harding's father. Because of the NDA he signed he never told his daughter about the island. Also because he may have known she'd race off to the island if she knew.
Further note: the book Sarah was infinitely more BA than movie Sarah. She pretty much single handedly saved the entire team and mercilessly fed the villain, in the book it was Dodgeson, to a T-Rex.
I strongly recommend reading or at least listening to the books. The first book vs movie wasn't bad as the movie had enough charm on its own but I felt the second book was far superior to the second movie
The boat crashing into the harbor with the T-Rex killing the crew is taken from the way Dracula traveled to England.
I love how I think it was today or yesterday that I commented how I hoped you guys continue the franchise lol 😂 so thank you I love it. But to answer your question is that everybody is not taking Malcom seriously because when he survived the first movie he tried to tell the public about the horrors but InGen, the company that made the dinosaurs discredited him so now nobody believes him they think he’s crazy and nobody takes him seriously
49:04 I heard somewhere that one of them is yelling something like “Not again!” I don’t know if that’s true or not, though.
so glad you guys are doing the full franchise! I vote yes for all six :)
Small and perhaps pedantic point - there were no flying or aquatic dinosaurs - things like pteradactyls and mosasaurus were reptiles that were around at the same time.
The shaving cream can reference people always seem to think it's a setup, but it was very clearly stated that there was only enough coolant in the can for 36 hours, so they wouldn't be viable. I don't know why this always becomes such a conspiracy theory.
It doesn't make it too clear in the film, but it the book it explains that the reason the T-Rexes attacked the trailers is because by bringing the baby back there it actually expanded their perceived territory and that's why they had to defend it - by getting rid of the threat,
Again, with the compys - it's explained in the book that their saliva contains some kind of narcoleptic venom (not sure if that's the right word!!) and it makes the victims drowsy so they can eat at leisure without risking injury.
The Japanese business men are indeed making a Godzilla reference - it translates to something like " I didn't leave Japan for this"
Also a fun cameo from David Koepp as the guy in the phone box
Fun Easter egg at the end - when they are on the sofa watching tv and it zooms on the tv, look at the reflection in the screen - Stephen Spielberg is sat between them on the sofa!
My favorite lines of this whole movie ... Yeah... Oooh! Ahhh! That's how it always starts. Then later there's running ..... and ......

As a black adoptee, I was so stoked about Jeff Goldblum being a dad to a black girl as a kid 😅
Rare representation, especially for the times 😊
Love Kelly!!!!
It’s supposed to be his kid.
@B-Dad 8504 aesthetically, it was something i as a child took as representation. Yes, your statement may be correct, but does a young kid (or most people) think about that when they see what they identify as a blatantly white compared it to Kelly's complexion? I certainly didn't care and saw it as something close to my family dynamic. It was rare in the 90s.
Kelly is a combination of two novel characters. Kelly, a white girl, and Arby, a black boy combined to make Kelly Malcolm.
Pretty sure *SOMEONE* down the line has already said this, but the paleontologist with the InGen team, Burke, (cowboy hat, long wiry greying brown hair, glasses plaid shirt that knew his stuff and got eaten in the waterfall), was based of of real life famous paleontologist Robert T. Bakker. Like Alan Grant was based off of other famous paleontologist and consultant for the films Jack Horner. Now, Horner was a strong proponent of the theory that T. rex couldn't chase down prey and was therefore an exclusive scavenger (but this has long since been disproven) and knowing full well, Burke was based off of him, and seeing that scene, Bakker phoned Horner and said cheekily, "I told you he was a hunter!"
Just because herbivores don't eat meat, it doesn't mean that they're non-violent and non-aggressive. The movies tend to make carnivores scary and antagonistic simply because they eat meat. But in real-life, carnivores are extremely cautious and only get in on the action when they need to fight or defend themselves. They can NOT risk any injury or else it gets infected, and prevents the predator from hunting, which could end up starving them
Herbivores can be VERY violent and aggressive, and can fight at their utmost at the drop of a hat. They fight just so they can live, and WILL risk injury. Plenty of herbivores such as hippos, rhinos, elephants, zebras, and wildebeest are extremely aggressive and will go out of their way to violently attack others just because they feel unsafe, sometimes they even intentionally seek out carnivores and their young to kill, and they also can seek revenge
Dude, I wouldn’t even mess with regular cows! In the U.K., hikers and walkers are warned to steer clear of them as they’ve caused injuries like fractured bones, lacerations, punctured lungs, bruising, black eyes, joint dislocation, nerve damage, unconsciousness and in some cases, death.
@@icatfishedyourdad2767 Yes exactly. Just because herbivores only eat plants, it doesn't mean they're always passive

Awe, the screams of an entire movie audience when that velociraptor poked its head through the hole in the ground. What you didn't catch at the start is Ian and the others signed a Non-Disclosure agreement before they went to the islands. Ian broke that agreement upon returning after the events of the first movie and writing a book about his experience on the island. The company, Ingen, then proceeded to write him off as a kook and conspiracy theorist, hence the reason few want to listen to him at the start.
11:24 The insert shots of the hurricane making islandfall in the first movie is the jetty to the inlet they used for this scene here. You land in Kauai, take a left out of the airport's parking lot and you'll be at the street that parallels the jetty in about five minutes. Nearby is the hotel the cast and crew stayed at and also took shelter in when hurricane Iniki struck the island (those insert shots were filmed during the actual hurricane.)
Also the repeated jabs at 90s tech being primitive and barely-functional is ironic considering this movie and all the CG was done with, you know, 90s tech.
To be fair the glass not breaking here makes way more sense than in The Maze runner because we know they used shock resistance glass in Jurassic Park
"We're not here to interact? You just went up and rubbed a Stegosaurus face!" Stella is my fave.
There is an extended version of this movie. In it, the hunter and Arjay have a scene where Arjay convinces (practically begs) the hunter to come out of retirement. Its a pretty cool scene and gives you a prequel to how badass of a character he's going to be.
there's another scene.
remember that ship with T-Rex. i remember watch it, when one of person go near T-Rex but got attacked and that's why the ship lose control. i trying to search that scene on internet but I can't find it anywhere. i remember watch it on TV. but now every copy is from remastered version where that scene is deleted.
someone said only fox tv VHS version got that scene
can I say between this and all the Conjuring movies, Stella does a great pikachu shock face like all the time lol :o 46:00
Dr Hammond is different from the books because the actor is so charismatic they changed some things. In the books he is a jerk and the villain, but in the movies he is a naive dreamer with too much power and resourses, in the first movie he is not bad, but he is wrong, in the second he tries to correct his errors, but fails in some degree for different reasons
21:17 There’s a lost scene where Peter Ludlow accidentally falls on the baby T-Rex’s leg and breaks it. Roland Timbo had a different plan in mind when luring the Rex out so he can hunt it, Ludlow was just clumsy and lost his footing.
the T-Rex strolling through San Diego was a nightmare I used to have when I was little! though it was my own town, not San Diego.
One of the sad things about Eddie’s death is that the rifle shouldn’t have even needed that front sight. Also, fun fact: when the a-hole Dieter was attacked by the small dinosaurs, in the scenes where they are biting him and tearing at his flesh, they’re actually just rubbing pieces of material on the actor to make it look like flesh is being moved.
Another fun fact is the the crew of the boat were all dead because in a previous draft of the script there were meant to be some raptors on board that managed to escape. They ended up changing it, but didn’t account for how the crew died.
Something else I think bears mentioning is that the creatures in these movies technically aren’t real dinosaurs. They possess some dinosaur DNA, sure. But the InGen scientists had to fill in missing sequences with frog DNA, which technically makes them entirely new and unique genetically engineered creatures that are partially based on dinosaur DNA.
Which is your favourite Dinosaur ?! Mine is named for an Aztec deity, was probably the biggest animal with wings to exist. Quetzalcoatlus was the largest flying dinosaur in the history of the world. Even to this day, it is still the largest flying animal of all time.
Technically not a dinosaur though, but a pterosaur.
Mine changed over the years but my current favorite is probably Carnotaurus
That rifle is a .600 nitro express. Two where made for the movie. Spielberg has one of them now. It will kill anything on this planet. The manufacturer jokingly but accurately said it will kill dragons. Each round of .600 is $100.00 each. You wanna hunt dinosaurs, this IS what you would use.
