My mom wouldn't let me see this cuz it was pg-13 and I was only 8. My dad picked me up and told her we were going out to dinner. We went straight to the theatre and watched this! One of my fav memories. Thanks dad!
That's hilarious. I would have been, I think 11 when this came out. It wasn't the first PG-13 movie I saw in the theaters, but it was probably the first "scary" one.
Pirates of the Caribbean was a ride at Disneyland that opened in the 60s. It was the only ride not based on a movie, so they decided to make movies based on the ride. The first movie was in 2003.
The Disney ride is based on the book Treasure Island. "15 men and a dead man's chest, yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum" song comes from the book, as does the quote "Thems that die'll be the lucky ones!" The Prisoners calling the dog to get the key to the cell is straight from the ride.
I was 12 and begged my dad to take me to see it in the theater. One of the best days of my childhood, and a memory me and my dad will hold on to forever. We still watch it together on occasion when he's having a good day (Dementia sucks) It did scare the crap out of me tho 😅😅
When the Westworld show came out a few years back on HBO it was reported that Michael Crichton had gone to Disney in the late 1960's and, while on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride came up with the idea of what would happen if the pirates came to life in the park. Which lead to him writing the book and movie Westworld, and later to writing Jurassic Park.
9:53 their excitement..... my excitement, when that scene came up on the big screen...... with a soundmachine, that you could feel the bass in your chest, when the big fellow came back down.... nobody ever had seen such a realistic version of a dinosaur in cinema.... a cinema moment, i will never forget....
Cristy: “Who mows that lawn? It’s impeccable!” I always use the “most go faster” line whenever I’m stuck in traffic, and use “Hold on to your butts” occasionally, they’re my own inside joke haha
Boo, bad joke. Seriously, though, they WERE going to film Mr Arnold's death, but a real life hurricane destroyed the set. I know how he died in the book, if you'd like to know.
19:50 The name you are looking for is Triceratops, a horned, rhino-like dinosaur. True rhinos, by the way, are NOT dinosaurs but are mammals, just like humans. Oh, and at 36:39, they already said a few seconds earlier that they are Gallimimus.
Also, unlike the triceratops and most knowne horned animals, a rhino's horn is just pure keratin rather than bone covered in keratin. I've seen documentary videos about the creative ways African preserves try to discourage rhino poaching, such as drilling a small hole into a rhino horn and filling the keratin with bright pastel colours. Apparently rhino's are not bothered or affected in the least by having their keratin safely removed or modified, so I can only assume it's more like trimming your fingernails rather than declawing. So TLDR, rhino's getting their nails painted might stop poaching!
Great reaction Cristy like always, What an epic movie love it. When I saw this in the theaters there was NO CONVINCING anyone that dinosaurs were not real. The CGI and effects were so beyond anyone’s imagination. It still holds up decades later. The part where Dr. Grant sees the dinosaur for the first time always puts a lump in my throat. He's spent his entire life digging up their remains and from that, trying to determine how they lived, hunted, mated, everything. He's even talking to himself going over what he thought he always knew about them. Super powerful and well acted if you ask me! Here's a fun fact that has been stuck in my head for 30 years.The iconic water cup was actually really difficult to create. They spent weeks trying to figure out how to get the perfect ripples. By accident it was discovered that placing the glass on a guitar and plucking the strings created the ripples, so they ran a guitar string from bottom of the glass to the bottom of the car and plucked it. Perfect ripples. One of those cool super simple solutions that just need someone to think of them. Keep up the good work.
@@CristyReactsHi ☺️ I just seen this Amazing reaction 💖 and hey that restroom scene where Rexy 🦖 She knocked over the restroom exposing the really mean old guy who selfishly left the poor kids trying Soo hard to hide 😥 save himself and Oops 🤭🤣 Eat Gobble him up 😋 anyway you giggle lol it was actually kinda funny and Deserved wouldn't you like kinda agree with me?
Yes! I just looked this up. Scientists say Earth’s atmosphere was about 33% oxygen at the end of the dinosaur’s era, compared to 21% today. This suggests the dinosaurs wouldn’t do very well breathing today’s air.
I saw someone theorize that this shift in O2 concentration was the reason we got the idea of dragons. He claimed that the dinosaurs, that were supposedly living alongside people, would breathe fire from struggling to breathe with less O2 available. It doesn't make much sense, but at least he tried to tie it all together.
Oxygen levels during the age of dinosaurs was about what it is today. People are confusing the Carboniferous period that ended about 40 million years before the first dinosaurs appeared. The dinosaurs were so big because their gut was very inefficient so you need a huge fermentation digestive system.
Dinosaurs came in many different sizes.... from chicken size, to ... well, the largest creatures ever to roam the planet! A few things... dinosaurs and whales are comparative in terms of size. The atmosphere was very different back then as well. More oxygen led to larger creatures in general, but also larger insects. Imagine a dragonfly about the size of a modern duck or turkey!! Also, in Virginia, USA, there is a dinosaur land theme park. Some dinosaurs are made to look the way people thought they looked (tail dragging) while others are made to look more modern.
I was 6 when this movie came out and saw it in the cinema (or what Americans call theatre) and that was it. An obsession was born. I saw the movie countless times since, as a child i had dinosaur everything. Lunch box, bed covers, mountains of toys, textbooks upon books upon books. Such fascinating creatures.
Hammond isn’t greedy; he didn’t want tickets to his park to be expensive, because he wanted everyone to have the opportunity to see his dinosaurs. He’s a good man. He created the park because he loves dinosaurs and wanted to give a gift to the world.
@ I don’t think he was blatantly lying. It’s been a while since I watched the entire movie, but I don’t remember him cutting any corners. The dinosaurs didn’t escape because he had cheap security measures; they escaped because Dennis Nedry shut down the security systems. Everything would have been fine if not for Nedry.
Cristy is so much fun to watch! When her eyes get wide and display shock, surprise, and occasionally terror, her expressiveness rivals even that of the characters on screen! Also she is incredibly sharp. When they started talking about shutting everything down she immediately clicked to the fact that meant the Velociraptor fences would be shut down as well. Normally the audence is reminded after the fact when it is clear they have escaped. Cristy is easily one of my favorite reactors. Truly a joy to behold!
Cory this comment made me so happy! Thank you for your awesome words. I’m so lucky that people like you actually apreciarte my silly little comments 🫶🏼
@@CristyReacts And I am so happy my comments make you happy. If they give back to you a fraction of the joy your reactions bring to me then it makes me very happy. ( PS. I made a spelling correction to the above post so it undid your like. My Bad. )
Hi Cristy! I’m so glad you enjoyed Jurassic Park. This remember being blown away when I first saw this movie as a kid in the 90s. I had never seen dinosaurs portrayed so realistically before. The brought these creatures to life using a combination of CGI, puppetry, and animatronics. The special effects were overseen by the legendary Stan Winston, who was just coming off work on Terminator 2: Judgement Day and Batman Returns. This film is based off the 1990 novel Jurassic Park, written by Michael Crichton. What’s interesting is that back in 1973, Crichton had written and directed Westworld, which has several similarities to Jurassic Park. The film is about guests visiting an interactive amusement park with lifelike androids inhabiting three “themed” attractions, Western World, Medieval World, and Roman World. Things go wrong when the androids malfunction, unleashing chaos and terror on the guests. Both stories explore the theme of man using science to play god. It’s called a Triceratops Cristy (19:38). The name comes from the Greek words meaning “three-horn face.” That’s the Dilophosaurus (27:50). It was the first dinosaur mentioned during the driving tour, but it was a “no show.” It seems they did take liberties with the depiction of the Dilophosaurus because there is no evidence that it had a frill or spit venom. It’s possible that the filmmakers wanted the dinosaur to be more visually interesting and threatening. The frill and venom-spitting ability gives the Dilophosaurus unique and memorable characteristics that help it to stand out from the other dinosaurs in the film. It worked in creating a more suspenseful and thrilling scene with Nedry’s death. (37:03) Pirates of the Caribbean was actually a ride created by Walt Disney in 1967. It was the last ride in which he envisioned and personally oversaw it’s construction. He died just three months before it opened at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. It became so popular that it was replicated in 1973 at the Magic Kingdom of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Versions of the ride were replicated at Tokyo Disneyland in 1983, and Disneyland Paris in 1992. The ride became know for its iconic theme song “A Pirate’s Life for Me.” The Pirates of the Caribbean films starring Johnny Depp were inspired by the ride.
Pirates of the Caribbean was a ride at Disney World long before it was a movie franchise. In fact, when the first "Pirates" movie was being made, there was a lot of scuttlebutt about it being based on a ride, and what a silly concept it was. And here we are a string of successful movies later. :)
"Did we shrink?" On land, yes. I'll remind you that in the oceans, the cetaceans stands undefeated as the heaviest animals ever found in the fossil record. On land though, the story is more complicated, but to summarise it: bigger does not mean better. Being bigger means you need a higher biomass intake in order to survive. Also, finding shelter from the elements is hard when you are three storeys tall and as long as a city bus. For birds, trading away size was very successful, as they've gained the ability to fly. For mammals, being smaller meant being able to give better parental care as well, making us the family that most efficiently raises its young.
Experiencing this movie in 1990 on a 30 foot tall screen, where you had to turn your head to watch, is absolutely at the top of my cinematic experiences (along with Avatar in 3d). Well done Cristy.
37:20 The "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie franchise is based on the Walt Disney theme park RIDE that opened in Disneyland in 1967. That's why Ian said "When the Pirates of the Caribbean BREAKS DOWN, the pirates don't eat the tourists."
Why are humans so small? Well, the reason dinosaurs were so big was due to several things like a higher oxygen content in the atmosphere and a lack of predators allowed to evolve much larger than present day animals. Humans are smaller because we evolved after the extinction of dinosaurs and alongside some deadly predators and a lower oxygen content in the new atmosphere after almost all vegetation being wiped out by an ice age.
Fantastic answer, and spot on. There's also the fact of resource efficiency. Human Brains are ridiculously over-developed, and require what is frankly an ungodly caloric intake to operate at the levels they do. Even in times of tribal hunter-gatherer austerity, the brain alone takes up nearly 20% of the energy we eat. If we were much bigger, that constant need to take in energy would scale up exponentially owing to something called the Square Cube law. As something doubles in size, it squares in volume, and the energy and structural stability needed to maintain it ramps up like mad. Humans are in a sweet spot where we can afford to run such powerful brains without starving to death or endlessly stuffing our faces. In fact, there some suggestion that the way we've perfected the making and eating of food is what's leading to us slowly getting bigger as a species. Mankind's average height has increased slowly over the recent hundreds of years that we have evidence.
That thing about lack of predators is bullshit. The number of predators in the sea is huuuuge, much bigger rate than in land, but creatures can be so much bigger. The secret sauce is weight. Dinosaurs are lighter than mammals because their bones tend to be lighter, they have holes inside. They are still very strong, but lighter. If you extrapolate the size, you may think that a sauropod 5 times the size of an elephant would be 5 times heavier but that's wrong, it may be 3 times heavier. That means that they can keep growing more than mamals. Also, dinosaurs enjoyed long periods of estability in their environments. In stable times, animals tend to get bigger. Mammals got to be extremely big until the ice age. Then big, highly specialized mammals started to die and we arrived and made sure no one survived.
@@Alfonso88279 it also didn't hurt that they had a respiratory system similar to modern birds, that enabled them to extract oxygen more efficiently from the air than mammals can, which also helped them sustain such massive sizes
@Alfonso88279 but Aldo consider the space in between those animals and how far any given prey might be from a predator. The ocean is vast and there was more of it before the last ice age. So animals could grow a while before encountering predators, and many prey animals usually stay in groups even in the ocean.
Great Reaction...... "Who mows that Lawn"........ Cristy out here asking the important questions....... Everytime some one mentions using DNA to recreate a species, I calmly remind them of this franchise.......
The original Michael Crichton book this film was based on was a delight to read. As you might expect there were quite a few differences in the film; Donald Gennaro was a much more badass and heroic character who survived to the end, his film counterpart was mashed together with a different character called Ed Regis, the coward that abandoned the kids and was later killed by the juvenile T-Rex (there were two in the book); Alan Grant had a bushy beard; the kids' roles were reversed in the film (book Tim was the older computer expert, book Lex was the younger annoying one); John Hammond was indeed more of a ruthless villain and much less sympathetic in the book, and died at the end after injuring his leg and being attacked by a swarm of procompsognathus (smaller, dog-sized dinos); Lewis Dodgson (the rival corpo who serves as Nedry's liaison) was also a more active villain who returned as the main antagonist of the Lost World book, but he didn't appear in the films again until Jurassic World Dominion in 2022. Malcolm was also ill and implied to die at the end in the book, but because that didn't happen in the film and it became a big hit, Crichton wrote the sequel more in relation to the film than the book, which ended up hurting it in my opinion.
Opening scene: Super intense music. Camera slowly pans across the faces of the men. Some are anxious, others clearly terrified. All are armed with weapons: some have stun sticks, while others have high powered rifles. The cage, made with strong, thick steel plates and only minimal spaces between the slats, is slowly and carefully lowered into place. Christy: Are they domesticated? 😂Don’t ever change!
The main reason things were bigger a 100m years ago is the oxygen levels in the air, roughly about 3 times as now. All things were big back then including insects, plants and tress. There is a lot wrong with this film scientifically. I will just say a couple. T-Rex had excellent eye sight, don't stand still in front of a T-Rex, you will be gobbled up. Velociraptor's were the size of Türkiye's, not 10ft tall,. But hay, Hollywood. still a great film. Great reaction Cristy
@@CristyReacts Paleontologist's have known this for decades, numerous fossils dug up and examined. It was Hollywood exaggerating. Almost certainly T-Rex and the Velociraptor's were covered in feathers also

A bit half n half regarding the T-Rex's vision. In the books the movement based vision is a genetic mutation due to the frog dna, which alan figures out later at the park which he shouldnt have known beforehand in the movie.
Sometimes when you feel down, you just need to watch someone fall in love with something you love. Thank you Cristy Reacts And I love this paleontology sponsorship! Thank you Dan's Dinosaurs!
My dad absolutely loved movies. He introduced me to horror and sci-fi from a very young age. I was about 5 the first time I saw Jaws in the drive-in with my parents. February 1993 my dad took his own life, few months before this movie was released. He would have love this movie so much
I was 14 when I saw this in the 2nd week of it's original release and it was and still to this day it's one of the greatest cinematic experiences of my life. Seeing these dinosaurs coming to life right infront of us was a experience that's truly difficult to explain.
2:45 have you watched Tomb Raider with Angelina Jolie? Two great movies that are all about that. There's also a more modern version of it with Alicia Vikander.
I love this movie it's over 30 years old and still looks incredible lol 8:40 they named that waterfall Jurassic Park Falls in Hawaii lol 10:27 the most iconic line of the movie "Welcome to Jurassic Park" 17:55 on the left monitor you can see another Steven Spielberg movie Jaws playing lol 20:40 great line lol 24:58 that's my favorite shot of the movie, where the flashlight goes into the T-Rexs eye and it dilates it's so good lol 30:18 great line lol 3826 that was the first day of shooting, blowing up Timmy lol 40:30 that's a real reaction from Laura and it's hard to believe she's only 23 in this lol 41:12 iconic line "Clever Girl" RIP Bob Peck 42:12 Ariana Richards is incredible in this movie, she's actually a professional painter now and you can get that shot from her website
I would recommend reading the Jurassic Park book. I think you would enjoy it. It answers several questions in the movie like why the dinosaur was sick and why Nedry is betraying Hammond. On side note the TRex showed us that lawyers are not all bad.
When they're talking about how Pirates of the Caribbean does it break down in the pirates eat the tourists, that's because Pirates of the Caribbean is a theme park ride at Disney World / Disneyland. The movies are based on the theme park ride.
Cristy. Pirate of the Caribbean was a ride at Disney World and Disney Land LONG before they made it into a movie. So while the Movie PotC came out after Jurassic Park, the ride was around for decades before the Jurassic Park Movie and that is why Malcom said "Yeah, but Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the Pirate don't wat the tourists." Hammond compared his park having difficulty to when Disney parks first opened, they had a lot of problems early on, and Malcom was pointing out that when Disney had problems, their attractions didn't eat the tourists. When Jurassic Park "broke down" it had lethal consequences.. and while certainly people have died at Disney World it not common at all as apposed to having a predatory dinosaurs eating guests. Love you work, Girl. Cheers! PS. Thanks for the translation. I never knew the hispanic "Digger" was betting the lawyer would fall.
10:45. It's all relative. Humans are actually a medium to large sized creature (we are technically megafauna). There were a ton of tiny dinosaurs running around in the past too. The tiny ones were the ones that survived the mass extinction event and eventually evolved into modern birds. There aren't as many large creatures now, for a variety of reasons, but it should be noted that the largest animal to ever exist (that we know of), exists right now; it's the Blue Whale. After the large terrestrial dinosaurs were gone, there were a bunch of land mammals that eventually grew to large sizes as well, but they all went extinct for a variety of reasons. Some of it climate, then some of the more recent extinctions of megafauna that co-existed with humans could have been caused by humans basically hunting them to death or just out completing them for resources. 12:09 As far as I know dinosaur dna is too degraded to actually resurrect a dinosaur, but there are definitely scientists working on bringing back the woolly mammoth and I think the dodo bird as well. We have found woolly mammoth carcasses frozen in permafrost, and I'll bet we'll find more as global temperatures heat up.
There were mummified mammoth carcasses discovered on Wrangel Island in the Arctic Ocean that died out around the time the Great Pyramids at Giza were being constructed. When they were discovered in the 1930s, the meat was still considered edible!
Cristy: I love big things And cue the snickering. On a more serious note, part of the reason we think dinosaurs were big is bias in the evidence. There were plenty of smaller dinosaurs but we have more evidence of the big ones because bigger bones are more likely to fossilize. Another interesting thing most people don’t think about is that whales are actually bigger than anything that lived in the dinosaur times.
If you visit Hawaii where this was filmed, they have turned it into drive/ride thru attraction like Disney and Universal Studios. You can even ride horseback or bicycles through it.
I definitely hope you go ahead and react to the entire Jurassic Park/World series. While certainly some are better than others, they are all worth a watch.
I don't know if you game or not Cristy but if you do I recommend the game Jurassic World Evolution 2. Great game where you are the master of your own Jurassic Park. They have challenges you can do that are based on the movies so you can see how you would do running one of those parks. You can create your own park from the ground up how you want it in sandbox mode. You can do all the research to create the dinosaurs, research the technology to run the park. Send out expeditions to dig up fossils to get DNA, capture living dinosaurs from the last three movies. There are many options to play the game and you can do it any way you want.
39:00 "OMG, if you turn the power on it will electrocute everyone climbing it." That's no and no. "Electrocute" means death by electricity. This fence won't kill anybody. It's only half the voltage used in commercial tasers you can buy at stores that sell self-defense equipment, and they usually don't kill anybody who doesn't have a pacemaker. Also, unlike what you see in the movie, Timmy won't even get "shocked" (electricity that doesn't kill) because he is not grounded.
technically the velociraptor would have been the size of a turkey and covered in feathers with wings that helped it turn at high speeds. the ones you see in the movie are actually the Utah raptor
If you look at all the sizes of the Universe, from the size of the whole shebang all the way down to the tiniest indivisible bit of time-space, it turns out the middle size of all things is something under a meter, around the two foot scale. We're just a bit bigger than the middle size. It has been said before: Cats are wrong about being the center of the Universe, but they do live there.
Brachiosaurus grew as large as they did due to the increased amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. This allowed animals to grow larger than ever before or since.
In case no one has answered this yet: for a long time it was theorized dinosaurs and other megafauna (love that word!) were able to get so large mostly because there was SO much more oxygen back then, but recent studies have shown this is probably not the case, so now they're thinking it's more likely a combination of factors rather than one specific reason, and some of those factors include: many of the largest species having hollow bones (like birds, as they mention in the movie), more efficient breathing systems (oxygen is necessary for rapid growth), and having especially rapid growth early in life relative to what we'd recognize. We don't know for sure why they got so big though.
*I like big dinosaurs and I cannot lie...* If I remember correctly, Jurassic Park was filmed during an actual storm. They ventured out to get some of the storm footage that you see. Also, the director entertained the kids for hours by telling them stories and such while they were weathering out the storm. I think it destroyed a good bit of the set, as well. If I remember correctly, weren't the oxygen levels back then higher and a lot of creatures grew larger as a result? They took a lot of liberties for this movie, of course. Dilophosaurus, for instance, didn't "spit venom" and such as far as we know. I think they modeled the look after maybe the Frilled Lizard? 17:34 Let's be real, guys would be so mad if they had short arms and couldn't reach their wang and there were no ladies around, so I don't blame the T-Rex for being angry.
37:15 - Yes, the pirates of the Caribbean existed when this movie was made, and for nearly thirty years before that in Disneyland. It was actually the last ride envisioned by Walt Disney himself to be overseen by him before his death. I went to Disney World in 1976 and went on that ride myself; that one had been built in 1973.
They would be fine on the fence, current is what kills, in order to get current, voltage has to have a pathway to ground. That's why birds and squirrels are fine on electrical wires.
With the whole premise of what the book was (though I think the book came out after the film in the end) about is them discovering what could possibly be the remains of Dinosaur DNA in amber (I say that because DNA degrades incredibly quickly), so with the notion said in the film about them filling in the gaps by Frog DNA would be like creating a whole new animal in reality, as there'd be awfully large gaps (if not making it up as they went along in reality). This isn't in anyway to hate on the film as I actually love it to bits, infact its up in my top 10 at least of films ever made this lol.
If you ever plan to get a really good surround sound system make sure this movie is one of the first things you watch with it. Some of the best sound design in a movie ever.
As a big fan of both Spielberg and dinosaurs, this is one of my favorite movies. I must have seen it in the theaters at least a dozen times, and countless times since then. In real life, the velociraptors were about the size of wild turkeys. The raptors in this movie more resemble Deinonychus. I guess Spielberg thought that raptor sounded cooler. There's no evidence to support the theory that T-rex can't see you if you don't move so, if you come across a T-rex, run! Dinosaurs would have a hard time surviving in today's world. The air in the Cretaceous period contained about 50% more oxygen than today, and the temps would have been about 5-10 degrees celsius warmer. The T-rex chasing the jeep would have had to stop every few steps and catch her breath. The sequel, The Lost World is pretty good too. The third movie, no so much. It's the first one to not be directed by Spielberg, but it's a fun way to finish off the original trilogy.
Interesting fact about the movie, Samuel L. Jackson was meant to record a death scene for his character. However, during production there was either a tropical storm or a hurricane (I can’t remember which), the beginning of which is supposedly the scene where the waves are crashing down on the beach/rock/pier in the film. Anyway, this storm damaged a bunch of the set which had to be repaired after the storm had passed at which point Jackson was no longer available to film his scene
It was a 31 year old adult when this came out. My best friend came up to me and said “ Dude! You’ll think the dinosaurs are real!” We grew up with the stop motion rubber models.
10:45 - Ok, I need to put on my "nerd hat" here. As you know, plants breathe CO2 and convert it to oxygen. Animals breath oxygen and convert to CO2. All through history, animals and plants enjoyed this symbiotic relationship. Billions of years ago, trees were small conifers no more than 6 feet high. One day, trees developed something called "lignin". When they did, they grew to incredible heights like the trees of today. They produced an over-abundance of oxygen. It would take another 500 million years for the first termites to walk the earth. So for hundreds of millions of years, earth had a overabundance of oxygen. There were not enough animals to consume the oxygen, so animals, instead, grew to incredible proportions. This included birds and insects as well. It was the only time in earth's history when the oxygen levels were that high. Today, nearly 80% of the atmosphere is nitrogen (an inert gas which we do not need). Only 21% is oxygen. So animals today grow only to the size of an elephant or whale. Another interesting point, there have been multiple ice-ages throughout history. These events continually "wipe out" all "large" animals, leaving only smaller ones. The meteor that killed the dinosaurs 66 million years ago killed everything above 40 Lbs. So earth keeps having to "start over".
A big part of why everything is smaller now is the atmosphere changed over millions of years. Scientists have been working on doing this for decades. An idea that has been around for a long time is using an elephant cross to breed a mammoth.
Universal Studios FLORIDA had a animatronic ( robotic dinosaurs with realistic skin and everything) you would ride a rollercoaster type ride avoiding the velociraptores and a T-Rex. You could even do the sick breathing dinosaur like in the movie
cristy at 37 23, malcolm said if the ride , Pirates of the carribean comes alive , the pirates don't eat the tourists, in the theme park disneyland, they have an auto matrontic robots ride with moving pirates that aren't alive but animatronic robots dressed like pirates moving back and forth and you sail past them in a boat ride , the ride was built in the 1960s
This movie was filmed on one of the islands in Hawaii. If you like the jungle and waterfalls, go to Hawaii and take a tour. As I recall, the island started with a K. If you're ever in the Los Angeles area visit the LaBrea Tar Pits museum--a long time ago many animals got trapped in the tar and buried there. Someone wrote about getting dino DNA from mosquitos trapped in amber many years ago. I think it was in Omni magazine. Possibly that's where Crichton got the idea for his Jurassic Park novel.
Hi Cristy! Actually the "Pirate" films didn't exist until the 2000's. BUT, the Pirates of the Carribean RIDE in DISNEY WORLD, existed for a long time before that. Thats where the films came from .
Just realized Richard Attenborough saying having a metaphorical pebble in his shoe at the sandy dig site ... some two dozen years earlier he won a Golden Globe for his acting in The Sand Pebbles.
When giant growth was normal for plants and animals in prehistoric times, there was MULTIPLE times as much CO2 as there is today. Additional CO2 is added to greenhouses because it acts like fertilizer on plants and makes them grow better.
Jurassic Park is still a great movie! I kinda still remember seeing it as a kid in theatres. My Mom took me to go see it. I was both scared and fascinated. I remember the first time we tried to go see it. It was sold out for the whole day. This was way before advanced tickets. Anyway, I'm glad you liked it. I think you will like the rest of the movies too.

Golden dad moment, for sure.
Pirates of the Caribbean was a ride at Disneyland that opened in the 60s. It was the only ride not based on a movie, so they decided to make movies based on the ride. The first movie was in 2003.
At least once Johnny Depp has dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow and stood at a part of the ride, coming to "life" to suprise/scare riders.
The ride opened at Disney World in '73.
The Disney ride is based on the book Treasure Island. "15 men and a dead man's chest, yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum" song comes from the book, as does the quote "Thems that die'll be the lucky ones!" The Prisoners calling the dog to get the key to the cell is straight from the ride.
And then the ride was reengineered to be based on the movie.
Thanks for reminding me just how old I am. Awfully swell of ya 👍
I was 12 and begged my dad to take me to see it in the theater. One of the best days of my childhood, and a memory me and my dad will hold on to forever. We still watch it together on occasion when he's having a good day (Dementia sucks) It did scare the crap out of me tho 😅😅
When the Westworld show came out a few years back on HBO it was reported that Michael Crichton had gone to Disney in the late 1960's and, while on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride came up with the idea of what would happen if the pirates came to life in the park. Which lead to him writing the book and movie Westworld, and later to writing Jurassic Park.
I'm starting to think Mike just didn't like theme parks.
9:53
their excitement..... my excitement, when that scene came up on the big screen...... with a soundmachine, that you could feel the bass in your chest, when the big fellow came back down....
nobody ever had seen such a realistic version of a dinosaur in cinema....
a cinema moment, i will never forget....
Richard Attenborough (John Hammond) was a very prolific british actor. He was the older brother of famous naturalist David Attenborough.
Jeff Goldblum Jurassic Park: "Must go faster..." 🦖

This is endlessly funny to me...
Cristy: “Who mows that lawn? It’s impeccable!”
I always use the “most go faster” line whenever I’m stuck in traffic, and use “Hold on to your butts” occasionally, they’re my own inside joke haha
Tap, Tap, Tap on the car camera... "Now eventually you do have dinosaurs on your dinosaur tour, right"?
Jeff Goldblum in The Lost World: "Increase your rate of climb."
Agreed. "Must go faster" in both movies was too funny.

"Mr. Arnold's dead."
At least disarmed.
Mr Arm-nold
Samuel L jackson said recently he would like to come back in the JP franchise and that could be done because they did'nt show him dead ^^
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Boo, bad joke. Seriously, though, they WERE going to film Mr Arnold's death, but a real life hurricane destroyed the set. I know how he died in the book, if you'd like to know.
@@crystalgemgirl731 question? how he did died in the book
19:50 The name you are looking for is Triceratops, a horned, rhino-like dinosaur.
True rhinos, by the way, are NOT dinosaurs but are mammals, just like humans.
Oh, and at 36:39, they already said a few seconds earlier that they are Gallimimus.
Thanks for the info. I find it interesting.
Also, unlike the triceratops and most knowne horned animals, a rhino's horn is just pure keratin rather than bone covered in keratin. I've seen documentary videos about the creative ways African preserves try to discourage rhino poaching, such as drilling a small hole into a rhino horn and filling the keratin with bright pastel colours. Apparently rhino's are not bothered or affected in the least by having their keratin safely removed or modified, so I can only assume it's more like trimming your fingernails rather than declawing.
So TLDR, rhino's getting their nails painted might stop poaching!
31:20 The rearview mirror thing is probably the single greatest visual gag in cinematic history (outside of a Tex Avery cartoon, that is).
I've been to the waterfall! My family took a helicopter tour to it when I was 11. It's on the island of Kauai in Hawaii.
Great reaction Cristy like always, What an epic movie love it. When I saw this in the theaters there was NO CONVINCING anyone that dinosaurs were not real. The CGI and effects were so beyond anyone’s imagination. It still holds up decades later. The part where Dr. Grant sees the dinosaur for the first time always puts a lump in my throat. He's spent his entire life digging up their remains and from that, trying to determine how they lived, hunted, mated, everything. He's even talking to himself going over what he thought he always knew about them. Super powerful and well acted if you ask me!
Here's a fun fact that has been stuck in my head for 30 years.The iconic water cup was actually really difficult to create. They spent weeks trying to figure out how to get the perfect ripples. By accident it was discovered that placing the glass on a guitar and plucking the strings created the ripples, so they ran a guitar string from bottom of the glass to the bottom of the car and plucked it. Perfect ripples. One of those cool super simple solutions that just need someone to think of them. Keep up the good work.
Marcoooooo! Wait, that's a great fun fact haha

Pirates of the Caribbean has been a ride at Disneyland since 1967.
The films were based on the ride, which is now based on the films.
The oxygen levels in the dinosaur times were higher than today, that's why animals were bigger in those times, even the insects
I'd be scared AF to see a horse-sized mosquito
Yes! I just looked this up. Scientists say Earth’s atmosphere was about 33% oxygen at the end of the dinosaur’s era, compared to 21% today. This suggests the dinosaurs wouldn’t do very well breathing today’s air.
Correct. Mammals are less hardy but better at moving oxygen around.
I saw someone theorize that this shift in O2 concentration was the reason we got the idea of dragons. He claimed that the dinosaurs, that were supposedly living alongside people, would breathe fire from struggling to breathe with less O2 available. It doesn't make much sense, but at least he tried to tie it all together.
Oxygen levels during the age of dinosaurs was about what it is today. People are confusing the Carboniferous period that ended about 40 million years before the first dinosaurs appeared. The dinosaurs were so big because their gut was very inefficient so you need a huge fermentation digestive system.
These kids were freaking AMAZING for it being their first big movie
Dinosaurs came in many different sizes.... from chicken size, to ... well, the largest creatures ever to roam the planet! A few things... dinosaurs and whales are comparative in terms of size. The atmosphere was very different back then as well. More oxygen led to larger creatures in general, but also larger insects. Imagine a dragonfly about the size of a modern duck or turkey!! Also, in Virginia, USA, there is a dinosaur land theme park. Some dinosaurs are made to look the way people thought they looked (tail dragging) while others are made to look more modern.
Rhinoceros Rex? LMAO 😂😂😂😂
Triceratops!
I was 6 when this movie came out and saw it in the cinema (or what Americans call theatre) and that was it. An obsession was born. I saw the movie countless times since, as a child i had dinosaur everything. Lunch box, bed covers, mountains of toys, textbooks upon books upon books. Such fascinating creatures.
Theater. Lol.
Also the air pressure was higher, so they were getting about twice as much oxygen as today.
Hammond isn’t greedy; he didn’t want tickets to his park to be expensive, because he wanted everyone to have the opportunity to see his dinosaurs. He’s a good man. He created the park because he loves dinosaurs and wanted to give a gift to the world.
That’s the biggest difference between the lovable old man in the movie and the ruthless greedy Hammond seen in the book
But he is reckless. And a liar (“we spared no expense” as he is constantly cutting corners)
In the movie sure. In the book he is your typical greedy millionaire/billionaire that doesn't give a fuck about anything but money.
@ I don’t think he was blatantly lying. It’s been a while since I watched the entire movie, but I don’t remember him cutting any corners. The dinosaurs didn’t escape because he had cheap security measures; they escaped because Dennis Nedry shut down the security systems. Everything would have been fine if not for Nedry.
@ Sure. But this is a reaction to the movie; we’re talking about the movie character.
I was a 15 year old kid when Pirates of the Carribbean opened in California, 1967. Awesome boat ride!
Cristy is so much fun to watch! When her eyes get wide and display shock, surprise, and occasionally terror, her expressiveness rivals even that of the characters on screen! Also she is incredibly sharp. When they started talking about shutting everything down she immediately clicked to the fact that meant the Velociraptor fences would be shut down as well. Normally the audence is reminded after the fact when it is clear they have escaped. Cristy is easily one of my favorite reactors. Truly a joy to behold!
Cory this comment made me so happy! Thank you for your awesome words. I’m so lucky that people like you actually apreciarte my silly little comments 🫶🏼
@@CristyReacts And I am so happy my comments make you happy. If they give back to you a fraction of the joy your reactions bring to me then it makes me very happy. ( PS. I made a spelling correction to the above post so it undid your like. My Bad. )
Hi Cristy! I’m so glad you enjoyed Jurassic Park. This remember being blown away when I first saw this movie as a kid in the 90s. I had never seen dinosaurs portrayed so realistically before. The brought these creatures to life using a combination of CGI, puppetry, and animatronics. The special effects were overseen by the legendary Stan Winston, who was just coming off work on Terminator 2: Judgement Day and Batman Returns.
This film is based off the 1990 novel Jurassic Park, written by Michael Crichton. What’s interesting is that back in 1973, Crichton had written and directed Westworld, which has several similarities to Jurassic Park. The film is about guests visiting an interactive amusement park with lifelike androids inhabiting three “themed” attractions, Western World, Medieval World, and Roman World. Things go wrong when the androids malfunction, unleashing chaos and terror on the guests. Both stories explore the theme of man using science to play god.
It’s called a Triceratops Cristy (19:38). The name comes from the Greek words meaning “three-horn face.” That’s the Dilophosaurus (27:50). It was the first dinosaur mentioned during the driving tour, but it was a “no show.” It seems they did take liberties with the depiction of the Dilophosaurus because there is no evidence that it had a frill or spit venom. It’s possible that the filmmakers wanted the dinosaur to be more visually interesting and threatening. The frill and venom-spitting ability gives the Dilophosaurus unique and memorable characteristics that help it to stand out from the other dinosaurs in the film. It worked in creating a more suspenseful and thrilling scene with Nedry’s death.
(37:03) Pirates of the Caribbean was actually a ride created by Walt Disney in 1967. It was the last ride in which he envisioned and personally oversaw it’s construction. He died just three months before it opened at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. It became so popular that it was replicated in 1973 at the Magic Kingdom of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Versions of the ride were replicated at Tokyo Disneyland in 1983, and Disneyland Paris in 1992. The ride became know for its iconic theme song “A Pirate’s Life for Me.” The Pirates of the Caribbean films starring Johnny Depp were inspired by the ride.
19:55 "I don't know the name of this... dinosaur."
Triceratops.
Gennaro : “In 48 hours……”
T Rex: “Most I can give you is 10”
Pirates of the Caribbean was a ride at Disney World long before it was a movie franchise. In fact, when the first "Pirates" movie was being made, there was a lot of scuttlebutt about it being based on a ride, and what a silly concept it was.
And here we are a string of successful movies later. :)
And at "Disneyland" 15 years before "Disneyworld" was built!
I got extra credit in science for going to see this and writing a report
The legendary John Williams did the music for this movie
This was 1 of my childhood movies growing up
me too im millennial grew up with it
"Did we shrink?"
On land, yes. I'll remind you that in the oceans, the cetaceans stands undefeated as the heaviest animals ever found in the fossil record.
On land though, the story is more complicated, but to summarise it: bigger does not mean better. Being bigger means you need a higher biomass intake in order to survive. Also, finding shelter from the elements is hard when you are three storeys tall and as long as a city bus.
For birds, trading away size was very successful, as they've gained the ability to fly. For mammals, being smaller meant being able to give better parental care as well, making us the family that most efficiently raises its young.
Experiencing this movie in 1990 on a 30 foot tall screen, where you had to turn your head to watch, is absolutely at the top of my cinematic experiences (along with Avatar in 3d). Well done Cristy.
I'm more impressed by the time machine that you used to watch this in 1990. 1.21 gigawatts?
1993
37:20 The "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie franchise is based on the Walt Disney theme park RIDE that opened in Disneyland in 1967. That's why Ian said "When the Pirates of the Caribbean BREAKS DOWN, the pirates don't eat the tourists."
that raptor in the egg would have looked alot more like a scary chicken than a bald lizard
Why are humans so small? Well, the reason dinosaurs were so big was due to several things like a higher oxygen content in the atmosphere and a lack of predators allowed to evolve much larger than present day animals. Humans are smaller because we evolved after the extinction of dinosaurs and alongside some deadly predators and a lower oxygen content in the new atmosphere after almost all vegetation being wiped out by an ice age.
Fantastic answer, and spot on. There's also the fact of resource efficiency. Human Brains are ridiculously over-developed, and require what is frankly an ungodly caloric intake to operate at the levels they do. Even in times of tribal hunter-gatherer austerity, the brain alone takes up nearly 20% of the energy we eat. If we were much bigger, that constant need to take in energy would scale up exponentially owing to something called the Square Cube law. As something doubles in size, it squares in volume, and the energy and structural stability needed to maintain it ramps up like mad. Humans are in a sweet spot where we can afford to run such powerful brains without starving to death or endlessly stuffing our faces. In fact, there some suggestion that the way we've perfected the making and eating of food is what's leading to us slowly getting bigger as a species. Mankind's average height has increased slowly over the recent hundreds of years that we have evidence.
That thing about lack of predators is bullshit. The number of predators in the sea is huuuuge, much bigger rate than in land, but creatures can be so much bigger.
The secret sauce is weight. Dinosaurs are lighter than mammals because their bones tend to be lighter, they have holes inside. They are still very strong, but lighter. If you extrapolate the size, you may think that a sauropod 5 times the size of an elephant would be 5 times heavier but that's wrong, it may be 3 times heavier. That means that they can keep growing more than mamals.
Also, dinosaurs enjoyed long periods of estability in their environments. In stable times, animals tend to get bigger. Mammals got to be extremely big until the ice age. Then big, highly specialized mammals started to die and we arrived and made sure no one survived.
@@Alfonso88279 You okay Skippy?
@@Alfonso88279 it also didn't hurt that they had a respiratory system similar to modern birds, that enabled them to extract oxygen more efficiently from the air than mammals can, which also helped them sustain such massive sizes
@Alfonso88279 but Aldo consider the space in between those animals and how far any given prey might be from a predator. The ocean is vast and there was more of it before the last ice age. So animals could grow a while before encountering predators, and many prey animals usually stay in groups even in the ocean.
Great Reaction......
"Who mows that Lawn"........ Cristy out here asking the important questions.......
Everytime some one mentions using DNA to recreate a species, I calmly remind them of this franchise.......
The original Michael Crichton book this film was based on was a delight to read. As you might expect there were quite a few differences in the film; Donald Gennaro was a much more badass and heroic character who survived to the end, his film counterpart was mashed together with a different character called Ed Regis, the coward that abandoned the kids and was later killed by the juvenile T-Rex (there were two in the book); Alan Grant had a bushy beard; the kids' roles were reversed in the film (book Tim was the older computer expert, book Lex was the younger annoying one); John Hammond was indeed more of a ruthless villain and much less sympathetic in the book, and died at the end after injuring his leg and being attacked by a swarm of procompsognathus (smaller, dog-sized dinos); Lewis Dodgson (the rival corpo who serves as Nedry's liaison) was also a more active villain who returned as the main antagonist of the Lost World book, but he didn't appear in the films again until Jurassic World Dominion in 2022. Malcolm was also ill and implied to die at the end in the book, but because that didn't happen in the film and it became a big hit, Crichton wrote the sequel more in relation to the film than the book, which ended up hurting it in my opinion.
Opening scene: Super intense music. Camera slowly pans across the faces of the men. Some are anxious, others clearly terrified. All are armed with weapons: some have stun sticks, while others have high powered rifles. The cage, made with strong, thick steel plates and only minimal spaces between the slats, is slowly and carefully lowered into place.
Christy: Are they domesticated?
😂Don’t ever change!
HAHA
"I have a fascination with really big things" the immature male in me couldn't take you watching the movie seriously. 😅😜
I love the first jurassic park movie
The main reason things were bigger a 100m years ago is the oxygen levels in the air, roughly about 3 times as now. All things were big back then including insects, plants and tress. There is a lot wrong with this film scientifically. I will just say a couple. T-Rex had excellent eye sight, don't stand still in front of a T-Rex, you will be gobbled up. Velociraptor's were the size of Türkiye's, not 10ft tall,. But hay, Hollywood. still a great film. Great reaction Cristy
Great informative comment! I wonder, was it Hollywood exaggerating? Or was that the understanding of dinosaurs at the time?
@@CristyReactsit was a bit of both
@@CristyReacts Paleontologist's have known this for decades, numerous fossils dug up and examined. It was Hollywood exaggerating. Almost certainly T-Rex and the Velociraptor's were covered in feathers also

A bit half n half regarding the T-Rex's vision. In the books the movement based vision is a genetic mutation due to the frog dna, which alan figures out later at the park which he shouldnt have known beforehand in the movie.
He was talking about pirates of the Caribbean The Ride at Disneyland that opened in 1969
Sometimes when you feel down, you just need to watch someone fall in love with something you love. Thank you Cristy Reacts And I love this paleontology sponsorship! Thank you Dan's Dinosaurs!

My dad absolutely loved movies. He introduced me to horror and sci-fi from a very young age. I was about 5 the first time I saw Jaws in the drive-in with my parents. February 1993 my dad took his own life, few months before this movie was released. He would have love this movie so much
You can't even imagine what it was like to see that first Sauropod in the theaters.
You should see Jeff Goldblum's first appearance in Death Wish.
Hippo's are vegesaururses of today, I wouldn't suggest feeding them.
I was 14 when I saw this in the 2nd week of it's original release and it was and still to this day it's one of the greatest cinematic experiences of my life. Seeing these dinosaurs coming to life right infront of us was a experience that's truly difficult to explain.
2:45 have you watched Tomb Raider with Angelina Jolie? Two great movies that are all about that. There's also a more modern version of it with Alicia Vikander.

I would recommend reading the Jurassic Park book. I think you would enjoy it. It answers several questions in the movie like why the dinosaur was sick and why Nedry is betraying Hammond. On side note the TRex showed us that lawyers are not all bad.
When they're talking about how Pirates of the Caribbean does it break down in the pirates eat the tourists, that's because Pirates of the Caribbean is a theme park ride at Disney World / Disneyland.
The movies are based on the theme park ride.
Cristy. Pirate of the Caribbean was a ride at Disney World and Disney Land LONG before they made it into a movie. So while the Movie PotC came out after Jurassic Park, the ride was around for decades before the Jurassic Park Movie and that is why Malcom said "Yeah, but Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the Pirate don't wat the tourists." Hammond compared his park having difficulty to when Disney parks first opened, they had a lot of problems early on, and Malcom was pointing out that when Disney had problems, their attractions didn't eat the tourists. When Jurassic Park "broke down" it had lethal consequences.. and while certainly people have died at Disney World it not common at all as apposed to having a predatory dinosaurs eating guests. Love you work, Girl. Cheers!
PS. Thanks for the translation. I never knew the hispanic "Digger" was betting the lawyer would fall.
10:45. It's all relative. Humans are actually a medium to large sized creature (we are technically megafauna). There were a ton of tiny dinosaurs running around in the past too. The tiny ones were the ones that survived the mass extinction event and eventually evolved into modern birds. There aren't as many large creatures now, for a variety of reasons, but it should be noted that the largest animal to ever exist (that we know of), exists right now; it's the Blue Whale.
After the large terrestrial dinosaurs were gone, there were a bunch of land mammals that eventually grew to large sizes as well, but they all went extinct for a variety of reasons. Some of it climate, then some of the more recent extinctions of megafauna that co-existed with humans could have been caused by humans basically hunting them to death or just out completing them for resources.
12:09 As far as I know dinosaur dna is too degraded to actually resurrect a dinosaur, but there are definitely scientists working on bringing back the woolly mammoth and I think the dodo bird as well. We have found woolly mammoth carcasses frozen in permafrost, and I'll bet we'll find more as global temperatures heat up.
There were mummified mammoth carcasses discovered on Wrangel Island in the Arctic Ocean that died out around the time the Great Pyramids at Giza were being constructed. When they were discovered in the 1930s, the meat was still considered edible!
The first ride "Pirates of the Caribbean" opened in 1967.
Cristy: I love big things
And cue the snickering.
On a more serious note, part of the reason we think dinosaurs were big is bias in the evidence. There were plenty of smaller dinosaurs but we have more evidence of the big ones because bigger bones are more likely to fossilize. Another interesting thing most people don’t think about is that whales are actually bigger than anything that lived in the dinosaur times.
I get the feeling that when Cristy is really tired, she kinda sounds like a T-Rex when she yawns 😂🤣. I'm kidding 😋
How'd you know?!?!?
@CristyReacts I can hear all the way in Canada 😋😋
A lot of people don't believe me but that was me I was the dino droppings in all the Jurassic Park films 😅
If you visit Hawaii where this was filmed, they have turned it into drive/ride thru attraction like Disney and Universal Studios. You can even ride horseback or bicycles through it.
I definitely hope you go ahead and react to the entire Jurassic Park/World series. While certainly some are better than others, they are all worth a watch.
That John Williams theme still gives me chills
I like what you've done with drowned out sound during the dramatic parts. React to all 3 OG jurassic parks
I don't know if you game or not Cristy but if you do I recommend the game Jurassic World Evolution 2.
Great game where you are the master of your own Jurassic Park.
They have challenges you can do that are based on the movies so you can see how you would do running one of those parks.
You can create your own park from the ground up how you want it in sandbox mode.
You can do all the research to create the dinosaurs, research the technology to run the park.
Send out expeditions to dig up fossils to get DNA, capture living dinosaurs from the last three movies.
There are many options to play the game and you can do it any way you want.
39:00 "OMG, if you turn the power on it will electrocute everyone climbing it."
That's no and no.
"Electrocute" means death by electricity.
This fence won't kill anybody.
It's only half the voltage used in commercial tasers you can buy at stores that sell self-defense equipment, and they usually don't kill anybody who doesn't have a pacemaker.
Also, unlike what you see in the movie, Timmy won't even get "shocked" (electricity that doesn't kill) because he is not grounded.
I like watching movies with you Cristy. You make it feel like watching with a friend in my home theater like experience. Gracias, Cristy.
siii this makes me happy!
technically the velociraptor would have been the size of a turkey and covered in feathers with wings that helped it turn at high speeds. the ones you see in the movie are actually the Utah raptor
If you look at all the sizes of the Universe, from the size of the whole shebang all the way down to the tiniest indivisible bit of time-space, it turns out the middle size of all things is something under a meter, around the two foot scale. We're just a bit bigger than the middle size. It has been said before: Cats are wrong about being the center of the Universe, but they do live there.
Mr Arnold was played by Samuel L Jackson
Brachiosaurus grew as large as they did due to the increased amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. This allowed animals to grow larger than ever before or since.
In case no one has answered this yet: for a long time it was theorized dinosaurs and other megafauna (love that word!) were able to get so large mostly because there was SO much more oxygen back then, but recent studies have shown this is probably not the case, so now they're thinking it's more likely a combination of factors rather than one specific reason, and some of those factors include: many of the largest species having hollow bones (like birds, as they mention in the movie), more efficient breathing systems (oxygen is necessary for rapid growth), and having especially rapid growth early in life relative to what we'd recognize. We don't know for sure why they got so big though.
*I like big dinosaurs and I cannot lie...* If I remember correctly, Jurassic Park was filmed during an actual storm. They ventured out to get some of the storm footage that you see. Also, the director entertained the kids for hours by telling them stories and such while they were weathering out the storm. I think it destroyed a good bit of the set, as well.
If I remember correctly, weren't the oxygen levels back then higher and a lot of creatures grew larger as a result?
They took a lot of liberties for this movie, of course. Dilophosaurus, for instance, didn't "spit venom" and such as far as we know. I think they modeled the look after maybe the Frilled Lizard?
17:34 Let's be real, guys would be so mad if they had short arms and couldn't reach their wang and there were no ladies around, so I don't blame the T-Rex for being angry.
Cristy, a Butterfinger and a Coke, a Heath bar and a Pepsi, a Payday and a 7UP 😂😂
the second one The Lost World is my favourite, you definitely should react to its sequels
37:15 - Yes, the pirates of the Caribbean existed when this movie was made, and for nearly thirty years before that in Disneyland. It was actually the last ride envisioned by Walt Disney himself to be overseen by him before his death. I went to Disney World in 1976 and went on that ride myself; that one had been built in 1973.
They would be fine on the fence, current is what kills, in order to get current, voltage has to have a pathway to ground. That's why birds and squirrels are fine on electrical wires.
With the whole premise of what the book was (though I think the book came out after the film in the end) about is them discovering what could possibly be the remains of Dinosaur DNA in amber (I say that because DNA degrades incredibly quickly), so with the notion said in the film about them filling in the gaps by Frog DNA would be like creating a whole new animal in reality, as there'd be awfully large gaps (if not making it up as they went along in reality).
This isn't in anyway to hate on the film as I actually love it to bits, infact its up in my top 10 at least of films ever made this lol.
Dinosaurs are my top favorite real life animals and I know so well about them plus I can model and animate them in blender.
The rhinoceros horn is made from keratin or knotted hair. Dinosaurs' horns are bone.
If you ever plan to get a really good surround sound system make sure this movie is one of the first things you watch with it. Some of the best sound design in a movie ever.
We *all* wanna go on that tour Cristy
As a big fan of both Spielberg and dinosaurs, this is one of my favorite movies. I must have seen it in the theaters at least a dozen times, and countless times since then.
In real life, the velociraptors were about the size of wild turkeys. The raptors in this movie more resemble Deinonychus. I guess Spielberg thought that raptor sounded cooler.
There's no evidence to support the theory that T-rex can't see you if you don't move so, if you come across a T-rex, run!
Dinosaurs would have a hard time surviving in today's world. The air in the Cretaceous period contained about 50% more oxygen than today, and the temps would have been about 5-10 degrees celsius warmer. The T-rex chasing the jeep would have had to stop every few steps and catch her breath.
The sequel, The Lost World is pretty good too. The third movie, no so much. It's the first one to not be directed by Spielberg, but it's a fun way to finish off the original trilogy.
fyi, the Pirates Of The Caribbean movies are named after/based on a Disney themepark ride that (IIRC) was present when the park opened in the 50s
Interesting fact about the movie, Samuel L. Jackson was meant to record a death scene for his character. However, during production there was either a tropical storm or a hurricane (I can’t remember which), the beginning of which is supposedly the scene where the waves are crashing down on the beach/rock/pier in the film. Anyway, this storm damaged a bunch of the set which had to be repaired after the storm had passed at which point Jackson was no longer available to film his scene
This was the very beginning of the C.G. era. Speiburg is always at the for front of special effects. I think he's the best director of our generation.
The movies pirates of the Caribbean were made from the ride. I went on it in 1981 and it was already old.
😮 your face watching the movie. 😂
Disney, Piryets of the Caribbean ride was first opened sometime in the 1960s I think as this 66 year young Aussie has never been outside Australia 😊
It was a 31 year old adult when this came out. My best friend came up to me and said “ Dude! You’ll think the dinosaurs are real!” We grew up with the stop motion rubber models.
10:45 - Ok, I need to put on my "nerd hat" here. As you know, plants breathe CO2 and convert it to oxygen. Animals breath oxygen and convert to CO2. All through history, animals and plants enjoyed this symbiotic relationship. Billions of years ago, trees were small conifers no more than 6 feet high.
One day, trees developed something called "lignin". When they did, they grew to incredible heights like the trees of today. They produced an over-abundance of oxygen. It would take another 500 million years for the first termites to walk the earth. So for hundreds of millions of years, earth had a overabundance of oxygen.
There were not enough animals to consume the oxygen, so animals, instead, grew to incredible proportions. This included birds and insects as well. It was the only time in earth's history when the oxygen levels were that high. Today, nearly 80% of the atmosphere is nitrogen (an inert gas which we do not need). Only 21% is oxygen. So animals today grow only to the size of an elephant or whale.
Another interesting point, there have been multiple ice-ages throughout history. These events continually "wipe out" all "large" animals, leaving only smaller ones. The meteor that killed the dinosaurs 66 million years ago killed everything above 40 Lbs. So earth keeps having to "start over".
A big part of why everything is smaller now is the atmosphere changed over millions of years.
Scientists have been working on doing this for decades. An idea that has been around for a long time is using an elephant cross to breed a mammoth.
Only three Spielberg movies!?!? So many good ones. Watch more.
4:40........It's a prehistoric mosquito trapped in amber, Cristy. ✌️❤️
Universal Studios FLORIDA had a animatronic ( robotic dinosaurs with realistic skin and everything) you would ride a rollercoaster type ride avoiding the velociraptores and a T-Rex. You could even do the sick breathing dinosaur like in the movie
cristy at 37 23, malcolm said if the ride , Pirates of the carribean comes alive , the pirates don't eat the tourists, in the theme park disneyland, they have an auto matrontic robots ride with moving pirates that aren't alive but animatronic robots dressed like pirates moving back and forth and you sail past them in a boat ride , the ride was built in the 1960s
The ride opened at Disneyland on March 18, 1967.
Second movie i played for my son after bringing him home from the hospital...Jaws was his first movie
You look amazing
Love how your Spanish comes out with stress
This movie was filmed on one of the islands in Hawaii. If you like the jungle and waterfalls, go to Hawaii and take a tour. As I recall, the island started with a K.
If you're ever in the Los Angeles area visit the LaBrea Tar Pits museum--a long time ago many animals got trapped in the tar and buried there.
Someone wrote about getting dino DNA from mosquitos trapped in amber many years ago. I think it was in Omni magazine. Possibly that's where Crichton got the idea for his Jurassic Park novel.
Hi Cristy! Actually the "Pirate" films didn't exist until the 2000's. BUT, the Pirates of the Carribean RIDE in DISNEY WORLD, existed for a long time before that. Thats where the films came from .
Just realized Richard Attenborough saying having a metaphorical pebble in his shoe at the sandy dig site ... some two dozen years earlier he won a Golden Globe for his acting in The Sand Pebbles.
You look awesome Christy. Love watching you.
Thanks Tim:)
When giant growth was normal for plants and animals in prehistoric times, there was MULTIPLE times as much CO2 as there is today. Additional CO2 is added to greenhouses because it acts like fertilizer on plants and makes them grow better.
Jurassic Park is still a great movie! I kinda still remember seeing it as a kid in theatres. My Mom took me to go see it. I was both scared and fascinated. I remember the first time we tried to go see it. It was sold out for the whole day. This was way before advanced tickets. Anyway, I'm glad you liked it. I think you will like the rest of the movies too.
