I love how Tim still has time to lecture his sister on dinosaurs in the middle of a life or death situation, Young Grant in the making, he's better in the book than he is in the film in my opinion but still likeable
Probably because Spielberg knew that making Tim like novel Lex would've been worse than just making him a dino nerd. Well there WAS one moment when he acted stupid - the control room scene where instead of helping Grant and Sattler by giving them a shotgun he decided to....pound the chair his sister was sitting in.
@@xanderfoley6641 Be fair Lex had some growth in the film, she bucks up and uses her computer know-how to get the locks back on, pity it turned out to be useless since the raptors could just go through the glass. It's Tim who doesn't change in the film, he's their damsel in distress.
I love Chricton's style of interrupting/breaking the continuity of the flow like how Grant was thinking where to shoot and then the T.Rex interrupts his thoughts with his roar at 04:48. He does this all throughout the novel and in some instances it further intensifies the suspense and horror of the scene, like in the Raptor pen.
Absolutely not, it would be the stupidest scene in the franchise. T-rex could not swim and least of all could it hold it's breath. I understand and I'm glad they never did that scene because it is just ridiculous.
@@brycevo No it was unrealistic, everyone knows T-rex was a terrestrial creature who could not swim. This would be giving the movie complete fantasy writing which would not suite the kind of realism the story is trying to build on.
The Dilophosaur scene with the raft is one I’ve always wanted to see. I mean imagine how terrifying and surprising it would be to all of a sudden flow past a whole pack of those frill-necked horrors just hooting curiously at you, any sudden movement setting them off.
I remember vividly the first time I read this, as a 12 year old. I was accompanying my father at a FedEx building and I got to the chapter while my dad was off doing whatever. I was litterally on the edge of the seat. My eyes wideneded at the rex jumping into the water. Good times.
In retrospect, the T. rex hunting Grant and the kids on a river definitely has shades of the finale of Jaws, with Bruce tearing The Orca apart. Crichton probably had Spielberg in the back of his mind. I'm glad that a version of it, of sorts, made it into JP3 with the Spinosaurus River Attack, but damn the book had a supremely entertaining and suspenseful first pass at it. I think Spielberg made the right choice for the film, from a budget and production standpoint, as it would have been too ambitious for the time.
Spielberg didn't only do it because of the budget, this surely have been done with CGI and would not be too costly. However Spielberg wanted some realism which is why you see a Spino which is an aquatic animal rather then a T-rex because everyone knows they could not swim.
One of my only criticisms of Crichton's writing of this book is his writing of the character Lex. I get that she is supposed to be annoying, but he wrote her a bit too annoying for my liking. And this scene is one if the main reasons why.
The things that I wished on that character made the awful things that actually happened in the book look like a day at Disneyland in comparison! I came so close to just giving up on finishing my second reading of the book several times. Just because Lex was so relentlessly, maddeningly infuriating!
Ah, the river scene. When reading the book, THIS was the scene I wanted the most to be in the movie. Sure, some other bits from the books I wish made it into their film adaptations, but this moment would be my top pick for the original movie and the Carnotaurus moment for The Lost World. It's a very entertaining moment, and uses that whole 'you can't see under water from the surface' fear. It also would have been cool to see the T-Rex swim like a crocodile as was described in the book. Now, I am aware this ALMOST made it into the film how I can't remember why off the top of my head. However, still glad to see this inspire a level in the Genesis game and even the official Jurassic Park Ride!
I believe this didn't make it to the movie due to the budget being too small to film it. The jeep chase was probably added in as it would've been a much cheaper scene to film.
@@Clovenstone-Blue They had a large budget for the time I don't know what you're talking about. Using animatronics and the CGI for the movie was never seen before in such a big movie. They actually wanted some form of realism and talked to paleontologists who definitely said this is a stupid scene. I'm glad it never made it into the movie and they actually listened for once.
The animatronic for the Rex was an amazing design, but it would malfunction in water. In the car scene the rain kept making it malfunction, so this scene was kept out.
I like the end of the scene where the waterfall stops and the tranqs have finally got to the rex and it bites it's tongue and falls back. My fave part is when they're out in the field and the tally of all animals found comes back and they realise the dinosaurs have been breeding and they could be anywhere. Each time I read this I feel such a sense of impending dread for the characters, as if they weren't already in mortal danger! haha
Hey Klayton, in a lot of these videos you often use these wall-painting looking pieces, particularly of the disappearing Carnotaurus'. Where are they from??
@@KlaytonFioriti That's awesome! Pretty cool of them to throw in some novel references in there. I figured they were from an Illustrated Edition of Jurassic Park/The Lost World (how awesome would that be??)
(How Donnald Gennero fend off a raptor in hand to hand.) Wondering if you'll cover this scene in a future video, plus I really love this T-Rex river scene, very intense.
@@YourPlayNation Carno are the very beginning of The Lost World and toward the middle/end and they can camo like the Indominous Rex did, and patrol around where a lot of the action takes place. And the Dilo have a much better scene in the Jurassic Park book than the movie portrayed.
There was also a segment in world where the people were in canoes rafting down with some sauropods I believe, it was only a few seconds but a very nice shot and it was on nublar too.
I always wanted to see the T. Rex river raft scene in any movie. As a matter of fact, the Dinosaur was sleeping on a rock near the river, as thought it was guarding it. There was even storyboards showing this scene. It was going to be filmed but was cut. It was going to involve stop motion animation and animatronics rather than CGI. Phil Tippett drew these storyboards!
I find the bit where Lex needs to cough or clear her throat a bit odd. Also I like the bit on the river with the Dilos, Hypsolophodons, Microceratus, etc neat. And the waterfall tongue bit.
The one story sequence that I loved and wanted you to do on your channel :) Still the best part in the book and most intense sequence in JP history! Wonderful video :) Still waiting for the Raptor nest story sequence :)
Ah, a scene from the book that (IMO) is pretty unique. I can actually buy how the T-Rex can swim, seeing as dinosaurs and crocodilians are both archosaur forms.
Your videos convinced me into getting this book ASAP. Thanks! It's my first Michael Crichton novel and I loved it! A great thriller with amazing detail in describing scientific topics such as math, computers, paleonthology, etc! I used to think the 1st movie was excellent but the book is by far better! I'm getting The Lost World book now! Love your content, I'm a subscriber from Perú!!
The raft scene is up there, but imo, nothing out does nedry's death. The way it's set up from the very beginning, the slow dawning realization, and then one of the more gruesome kills the book has to offer. It's pretty great all around.
I’ve never read the novel. Hearing you read this passage was so enthralling. I need to pick up a copy of the books now. This would be a great scene to rework for JW3
I like that the young T Rex bent over the dead sauropod she was claiming it as her own just before Rexy ran out of the river and chased the young girl away to protect her kill while attacking Alan Grant and the kids on the river raft
I just got the mattel life finds a way as ad of this video and it's fantastic the klayton also great video klayton chop chop of the carnotaurus LIFE FIND A WAY life can't be contained life find's a way.
I personally like the stampede scene. The raft scene is quite common in your videos. Also why were Lex and Tim's ages switched? You know the juvenile would have been interesting to see as well.
I think the ages were switched for the movie for the same reason they swapped Hammond to being a loving grandfather who cared about his staff in the movie, it simply fit better for the story they wanted to tell. I think they just wanted one of the kids to be more mature than either was in the book, and decided Lex was the better of the 2 for that to be.
Klayton I love the way you read the book, full of excitement for the content and making the scene feel so real. I so wish you could so the whole book.both booka actually would be good.
This is my favorite scene in any JP movie or book. I have my Literature as Film classes storyboard it since it hasn’t been faithfully adapted into film.
Okay now that was super cool I would have loved to seen in the movie. Excellent work my friend the way you described it made it sound so suspenseful I was on the edge of my seat!
I honestly hate most of the kids that appear in the Jurassic Franchise. Tim & the Clone Kid Girl are the only children I find endearing and don't mind.
I love these videos of you reading sections of the books. I'm not really an audio book guy, but if you'd get the chance to record an audio version of Crichton's novel, then I'd happily listen.
i have watched quite a few of these videos from you, and can i just say, your voice and enthusiasm is just amazing for reading this book. i wish i could just listen to an audiobook of you reading this series. XD it would be such a thriller!
Rexy attacking lex tim and grant from the lagoon is my favorite part in the book . The way it was written was perfect . Like when rexy goes under water like a crocodile that always makes me think of dinocucaus would have a made a great appearance in book . But I still enjoy this chapter with rexy acting like a crocodile. The young rex coming back to eat the fresh food is surprising when rexy chases the juvenile off .
I’ve heard this scene referenced for it’s awesomeness but this is the first time I heard it all. That’s an amazing scene I hope we get to see it one day
Another outstanding dramatization Mr. Fioriti....both visually and audially. You really are onto something here as everyone seems to agree. I hope you can fully develope the idea into a commercial enterprise as you surely do deserve it and I'm sure there would be a demand for it.
Imagine this as the opening sequence to JW3 with some random people going rafting in the wilderness where the Rex is hanging out. But instead of them drifting away as the Rex gets distracted, he comes up right under them and it cuts to the title sequence.
I will admit that I have been a little hard on you about some of the things you have said regarding the books, but I will say that you definitely have an excellent voice for narrating these.
It makes me wonder if T-Rexes could swim or they just walked through the water. Also now that you mention crocodiles, there were prehistoric crocodiles as well. They were said to be mega huge and one of them were featured in the Lost World arcade.
I can see why it was cut. With the difficulties of water in the past, with films like Jaws, imagine how crazy hard it would be to implement a scene like that into JP.
One of my favorite scenes in the novel, by far. A major pity that it didn't end up in the movie, but I understand that there were legit concerns about being able to pull it off technology wise. Oh, and you know what's even more chilling? In the Sunderban mangroves of Bangladesh, man-eating tigers are still very much a thing. Now and again, these tigers have been seen to slip into the water and pursue people in canoes/on wooden rafts as the occupants wildly try to paddle away, like a dog chasing a dirt bike-or like the rex going after the rubber raft. Not a fun place to be.
I recently read the original novel (Thanks for the gift, Mom!) And I loved it, despite the different atmospheres, both the novel and the movie were fantastic in their own right. However, one of the things I like about the film over the book was how they depicted the children. Rather than Tim having all the 'useful' qualities (both the computer smarts and the dinosaur know-how), they divided it up and gave both the kids traits that could help them and others. Lex was still a scared girl, but she diverted attention to herself when her brother was going to be found by the Velociraptors and her computer skills allowed the survivors to escape. Tim was a young boy, but he was still in wonder of the dinosaurs (even after the Main Road attack) and learned from watching his sister that he could trick the Velociraptors and was integral to locking up one of them in the freezer. Neither of them really felt like The Load, unlike poor Lex in the book.
Lex: Besides, a Trex can't swim
Rexy: Are you challenging me?
You thonk i cont swom hooman

It makes me wonder if T-Rexes could swim or they just walked through the water. Also now that you mention crocodiles, there were prehistoric crocodiles as well. They were said to be mega huge and one of them were featured in the Lost World arcade.
once again u made it sound so real I love it I felt like I was there
"Of course he can swim you little idiot!"
Iconic
Great video man! Seeing a swimming
T Rex stalking people would be awesome in the new movie!
I can see why it was cut.
With the difficulties of water in the past, with films like Jaws, imagine how crazy hard it would be to implement a scene like that into JP.
I love Chrichtons novel but I still think that Lex was the most annoying character
I agree! I think the kids should have been killed off 💁🏽♀️
@@BekahMarie11 not tim, just lex
@@BekahMarie11 now that i think abt they should not have came
"Entertainment purposes", you can never have enough of those cannon fodder characters
“nedry” is the best scene of the book for me
One of my favorite scenes in the novel, by far. A major pity that it didn't end up in the movie, but I understand that there were legit concerns about being able to pull it off technology wise.
Oh, and you know what's even more chilling? In the Sunderban mangroves of Bangladesh, man-eating tigers are still very much a thing. Now and again, these tigers have been seen to slip into the water and pursue people in canoes/on wooden rafts as the occupants wildly try to paddle away, like a dog chasing a dirt bike-or like the rex going after the rubber raft. Not a fun place to be.
This is so good! 😍
I recently read the original novel (Thanks for the gift, Mom!) And I loved it, despite the different atmospheres, both the novel and the movie were fantastic in their own right. However, one of the things I like about the film over the book was how they depicted the children. Rather than Tim having all the 'useful' qualities (both the computer smarts and the dinosaur know-how), they divided it up and gave both the kids traits that could help them and others. Lex was still a scared girl, but she diverted attention to herself when her brother was going to be found by the Velociraptors and her computer skills allowed the survivors to escape. Tim was a young boy, but he was still in wonder of the dinosaurs (even after the Main Road attack) and learned from watching his sister that he could trick the Velociraptors and was integral to locking up one of them in the freezer. Neither of them really felt like The Load, unlike poor Lex in the book.
I absolutely loved this part in the book!
It's rendition in the Sega Mega Drive game was always a highlight.
So awesome looks
can always hope they make a serie based of the first book and include this moment.
