Jurassic Park 2 Lost World th-cam.com/video/wGjgvImju8U/w-d-xo.html
hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Jurassic Park Amazing movie 🤩 And You're the Perfect Beautiful Amazing 💖 narrator and commenter 💯 hey that scene where you comment that mean old lawyer guy who selfishly abbonond those poor kids he's Desperately trying to hide sitting on the toilet Sweating it 😥 LOL 😂 and T-Rex found him and Eaten him up 😋 anyways!! Didn't You think that was actually kinda funny and he Deserves it as well??
At the scene where Hammond pours champagne for Grant and Sattler, he insists that he "knows his way around the kitchen." He gets normal drinking glasses from the cabinet, but if you look closely, you can see champagne glasses hanging in plain sight at the other end of the counter. This could be considered a warning sign that Hammond can't see what's right in front of him.
I've never heard that one. That's great.
I heard the phrase: " he knows his way around the kitchen ", used in a totally different way, long before this movie came out. 😳
Holy smokes, that's a new one to me! Thanks Pete.
Or that he's full of it. Just like everything else with him in this movie.
@@scottb3034We don’t tolerate Jurassic Park slander
Richard Attenborough, who played Hammond here, was also a well-known movie director. He directed a 1982 film about Mahatma Gandhi which won multiple Oscars and featured a young Daniel Day-Lewis in a minor role, in one of his first film roles. Richard Attenborough is a brother of the famous naturalist and documentary filmmaker, David Attenborough although Richard died in 2014 at the age of 90.
👍
sd
MAG.
Not that well known a director to most people aside from Gandhi and A Bridge Too Far.
He directed 12 films, but he was far better known as an actor with 78 credits to his name on IMDB.
@Matrixnukum David Attenborough has been doing nature documentaries on British TV since 1954.
Not only that, but he won Best Picture in 1982 for Gandhi and was quoted as saying that Spielberg's E.T. should've won. Apparently he was every bit as gentlemanly and sweet as he seems.
The two female seatbelt straps is way more of a foreshadow than anyone ever realizes
such a classic, almost 30 years old and still holds up well today.
Fantastic movie shame the franchise is being milked to death.
1000 Times better than the Chris Pratt ones!
Better effects than most movies. This is the gold standard
@@PatrikNilsson1 not really the chris pratt ones are pretty good the 2nd one is the weak link out of the 3 with the 1st being the best you just happen to like the OG's more this is not a star wars thing where the storys of the old people were trashed
jurassic parks
1st movie they tired to make a park it failed
2nd movie they tired to make a park it failed
3rd movie il just leave that alone
so why wouldnt they finally get a park running at somepoint with all the money spent
Now it comes full circle in 2022
Back in ‘93, no one had seen visual effects like this, and we were all blown away by them! Also, because such effects were so hard to achieve back then, a huge amount of time and efffort was put into every single frame, and CG was only used where absolutely necessary, with the majority of dinos being done live on set via animatronics. This mix of real and virtual has never really been bettered, and it’s one of the reasons why the work still holds up today.
it still holds up for the most part today almost 30 years later, while certain movies don't hold up 5-10 years later.
@@nsasupporter7557 I think that’s partly due to movies like Tron were really hard to market back then. Computers weren’t in every home yet, video games were still in their infancy, and people didn’t go to the movies just for the visual technical merits of a film. When you look back on Tron, the story was compelling for someone who is fully enveloped with technology 24/7. But it’s a weird concept to grasp for people who had almost no exposure to cutting edge (for the time) technology.
Jurassic Park was instantly a hit though, because it was a good movie regardless of the visuals, and it was far easier to market a movie about a company cloning dinosaurs, and something goes wrong and the Dino’s wreak havoc.
@@nsasupporter7557 I wonder if Tron would have been more popular, or at least easier to market, if some contemporary video games had been portrayed, like Defender, Breakout or Space Invaders, so the characters are participating in 3D depictions of something recognisable that audiences could latch on to… but would that have made it too much of it’s time and less loved in the long run? Personally, I like that it’s its own thing, but if it was made these days I’m sure it would feature so many references!
@@nsasupporter7557 Tron Legacy? No, I haven’t seen it.
Actually they had. Terminator 2. It was groundbreaking as far as CGI was concerned. Jurassic Park was the pinnacle of animatronics while T2 was of miniature models. Both combined the proper use of CGI, practical and on set filming locations. I'll never forget the behind the scenes access my dad took me to. I met several of the people who worked on the film and remember holding the baby raptor used in the film.
Jurassic Park is a notable benchmark in the development of CGI technology. Just as Star Wars was a giant leap forward in special effects in the 70's, so is Jurassic Park a giant leap forward in the realism of CGI in the 90's
Absolutely!
Terminator 2 done it two years earlier.
It was animatronics mostly.
That's facts.
@@DestinyAwaits19 This. T2 was groundbreaking and lead the way for modern CGI. Jurassic Park followed suit. Both movies had top tier practical effects which is why they hold up even today.
Im so glad you reacted to how John felt, I feel like a lot of people overlook his character and his motives. Its pretty sad him looking at the park one more time before leaving.
Right? I have always felt really bad for his movie version, you can tell that he was just a kind man with a vision. He was always one of my favorite characters and I also love how it was symbolized between his clothing being white and Malcolm's being black that they had polarizing viewpoints.
@@JustKelso1993 ooo I never noticed that before, thats a good notice. I plan on reading the books, is he very different from the movie version?
@@metalmasher100 Very much so, yes. Without going into spoilers, lots and lots of maths and technical jargon, more types of dinosaurs, more international politics, characters, relationships, and body count were all quite different. Most importantly, many of the scenes from the book show up in later movies, so there's a bit of a disconnect between what you saw and what you're reading
@@metalmasher100 It's a great book. Read the first chapter and you'll be hooked. There's a lot left out of the film adaptation. Also, make sure you get the original book, not the novelisation of the film!
@@metalmasher100 I know, my mind was blown when the parallels registered in my brain lol he is quite different in the book, a lot of the characters are honestly. It is a good read.
I was 9 years old when this movie came out and it genuinely scared me, to where I had nightmares afterwards. But now it's one of my absolute favorites. Along with all the others that have come out since.
I was the same age! It was the first PG-13 movie I ever saw in theaters, and while it didn't give me nightmares I think the T-Rex car chase and raptors in the kitchen scenes shortened my little life by a solid five years or so.😅
I was 11 now to see tje final product priceless my friend
I was 12. I had to walk home (only a few blocks) at night in the dark and kept thinking a T-Rex was going to jump out and eat me. I ran the whole way home.
I had seen many "monster" films before, but I remember seeing THIS at the movies... Still mesmerised, I was saying to myself as I walked out of the theatre "Woah... I've just seen DINOSAURS move before me!".
Yeah. I loved going to all kinds of horror movies, but this is the first one I remember seeing that actually had me cramming back into my seat, trying to figure out how to climb over the back of it.
And the reveal was SO great. Blowing you away with the single dino up close, then the shot of the whole field.
I absolutely love how they had Sam Neills' character because the one with the kids throughout the film because it shows how he's never wanted kids and by the end he loves them and they love him.
The book is very worthwhile to read even for people who have seen the film already. It has different characterization of some characters and more detailed scifi and computer stuff. Also, it's more framed around lots of small things in the park gradually building up into a disaster.
I would recommend the lost world book too. The story is different but SO good.
The Jurassic Park book is epic and cliche to say better than the movie. At the end of the movie I was like why are so many people still alive 🤣
If you don't have time to read the book. The audiobook is on TH-cam for free aswell.
Great story for a long drive.
When you grew up in the 80s seeing movies like King Kong and King Kong Lives with men in suits picking up and eating baby crocodiles to pass off Kong as huge, you have an even greater appreciation for the realism of this movie to audiences in 1993.
Truly incredible. And still largely holds up today!
The T-Rex in this film is still one of the most intimidating and terrifying creatures that's ever been put on film...and it was a real thing that existed on Earth of course...the ultimate monster.
Even scarier than the movie as the real deal wasn't limited to see just movements but did have really good eye sigth. ^^
Legit, this is one of a great many reasons that I didn't enjoy Jurassic World nearly as much. Dinosaurs were stupendous and spectacular enough to inspire incredible awe all on their own - not to mention that the awe is only increased by knowing these behemoths *really did exist* - and Jurassic World having a whole new fake genetically-modified species as the major threat actually totally undermined any sense of awe for me. Jurassic Park is still the original and the best ♥
The Dragon among men if you would be alive to see it, there was no such thing as dinosaurs till in the 1900's, imagine being the first human being to uncover a skull of this creature
Eh, they’ve nerfed the T-Rex since JP3.
@@tylercarroll9983 Still today there are Komodo Dragons and 20-30ft long crocodiles
i remember the first time i saw this movie. i was in Elementary school and was spending the night at my friends house. i just remember not being able to sleep
Michael Crichton created the story, Steven Spielberg brought the story to life, John Williams made it magical. Three people coming together to make Dinosaur movie history.
I agree with everything you said about feeling sorry for John. Every time I watch this movie I can't help but feel sad for him at the end.
He wasn't doing this with any ill intent or even to make money. He was a man with a dream who wanted to show the world.
I've seriously seen this over 100 times and thanks again for making it even more exciting! This classic helped me decide what I wanted to do for a living (animation). You see CG creatures everywhere nowadays but I'll never forget seeing that first dinosaur in the theater. Nobody had ever seen animation that realistic. :)
The book it's based of is pure horror and contains very graphic and gory scenes; An infants face gets eaten. It also ends a bit more uhm... dramatic.
ENDING SPOILERS BELOW
.dnalsi eht ekun yehT
I loved Muldoon so much in the novel XD, and the part with Аlan hiding from the raptors, the raft scene, everything...!
Speaking of raptors, on the early productions, there was a stop motion test on the kitchen scne, and like in the book- the raptors had lizard tongues there
Fun Dinosaur Facts:
1) T-Rex did not have movement based vision, it had great vision. But it was a fast runner, and it has to this day the strongest bite force of any land animal that ever existed. With a bite force of 6 metric tons!!!
2) In real life Velociraptor was not 6 feet tall and 9 feet long but 2 feet tall and 6 feet long. And they like all raptors were actually covered head to toe in feathers. There were raptors as big as the ones in the movies but they didn’t have names as cool as velociraptor. But they were every bit as smart and deadly as they were in this movie.
3) Dilophasaurus (the spitter) didn’t actually spit venom, and they were not that small. They were actually huge, 7 feet tall and 23 feet long!!!
"Do you feel like you are doing something wrong?" 🤣 You had me laughing out loud. I'm going to remember that forever whenever I see someone doing something stupid.
I remember, my mom got me this book for Christmas of 1991, since she knew I was a big dinosaur fan (I was a history/museum studies major in college). About a year later, I found out they were making a movie of the book & I was really excited, but wondered if they would be able to pull off all the special effects that would be needed. Needless to say, I was blown away by the film.
Saw this at age 11, opening weekend we were lucky enough to get tickets.
Right age, right time, right cast, right crew, and the best special effects.
Lightning in a bottle.
Most amazing cinema experience ever. Never had a movie match the pure magic of Jurassic Park since.
Edit: Just wanted to say about Nedry, is that he wasn't actually fleeing the island.
He shut down security, gathered the specimens, and he was on his way to the docks with the can to give it to one of the boatmen... and he would then head back to the control room, with nobody wise to what he'd done.
But, he get's lost. And eaten.
I love that the closed captions on the feeding of the raptors is just "Mooing in terror"
21:39 The kid shooting in horror.
Magy : "Why are you shouting? Why are you shouting?!"
The angry/hungry dinosaur 5 meters in from of her : "That's why."
I didn't remember that Samuel L Jackson was in Jurassic Park before being in Pulp Fiction, nice reaction
Another series I grew up with. I remember having a poster of the T-Rex stepping on the truck with the tire hanging out of it's mouth when I was little. you definitely have good taste in movies. A little hint that the dinosaurs were gonna reproduce in a single sex environment was when Grant had trouble with the seat belts. He used two female ends of the belts to "find a way" to make it work. As to Hammond, the movie made him seem like a nice old man with good intention, but the book has him portrayed a lot differently. We definitely gotta get you out to Universal and Disney one day because you'd probably enjoy both parks.
One small detail I always love about the story telling in this movie, at the start on the helicopter, Dr Grant fumbling with the seat belts, taking two females ends and ultimately making it work.. a little fore shadowing
"Life finds a way"
Seat belts find a way
Magy's accent is the best and glad she is finding these classic films
I never considered "Herbivores" to be the safe option. You never know when you will run into the ancient version of the hippo.
Or Cape Buffalo.
This was my favorite film as a kid. For a lot of kids in the 90s it started a life long love for dinosaurs😊
I saw this when it came out and people forget how much of a CGI milestone this movie was. I remember losing my breath in the theater during the scene in the kitchen with the Velociraptors, and ranting and raving about the film to my parents on the way out to the parking lot. The fact that the CGI still stands up (from 1993)...pretty impressive. Such an awesome movie.
I live, by myself, in the 3rd hottest place on the planet. Your laugh, and insights and interjections, are so inspiring and uplifting. You help me feel less lonely. You are singularly entertaining. Anyone who does not appreciate that needs to watch you again. My favorite movie is Airplane!. You made it so much for fun for me. I thank you for that.
The one that started it all and still the yardstick, a truly landmark movie in so many ways. RIP Richard Attenborough (Hammond) and Michael Crichton (author and screenwriter). No more zoomed-in lizards and stop-motion papier-mache models for us. Perfect cast. Brilliant score, one for the ages. And the cherry on top is Magic Magy for the best reaction yet to this classic, and I've seen them all. .
The Giant Gila Monster is still the benchmark for me. 🤣 I kid...
I think it's so cute how the girl tilts her head when she screams! (she's also Mindy from Tremors)
I saw this with friends in the theater when I was 20. After the T Rex attacking the kids in the car scene, we all looked at each other in disbelief!!! It looked so real. I didn't want to like the movie because it was so hyped at the time, but we couldn't help loving it, it was mind blowing. Watched it a few more time in the theater that same week.
When the T Rex break the glass, that wasn't supossed to happen so their reactions were genuine
the girl playing Lex, a few years earlier played in another movie called Tremors (1990). she played a girl on a pogo stick in this small town.
I saw this in theater about half a dozen times. After all these years it's still a fantastic movie, the action is great and the special effects are still top notch.
Fun fact: In the scene of T.rex escaping from his enclosure, as he breaks through the roof of the children's car, their terrified reactions are completely genuine. The glass was not meant to break. So their screams and faces of absolute terror were real xd
Not true at all. They screamed in every take and the glass pushed through the car in every take. The actor said during one take the corner broke off. That’s it. It wasn’t real or genuine

This movie took OVER the theatres and the entire world :) it was HUGE when it came out.
The cinematic, the blend of cgi and animatronics, the soundtrack, all of it became ICONIC!!
Can't wait to see you react Magy!!
Fun Fact: This movie used the "who is who" of Special Effects legends and studios at the time. They tried literally EVERY form of special effects possible to create the "perfect illusion". They used puppets, animotronics, clay-mation/stop-motion, practical effects, camera angles, camera tricks of perspective.... literally EVERYTHING because they didn't think that the computers at the time could do a proper job. They slowly realized that by taking the above listed effects and using the computers to "enhance" the motion on camera, some of the older techniques were no longer needed. Instead of just walking away from the movie completely, these older technique experts dived DEEPER into the computer graphics technology and ended up working as "consultants" to the computer people making even MORE detailed renders. They eventually got to the point of what we see in the movie today.
The ironic thing is, while some of these graphics are a little dated in spots.... those same special effects experts that had to change their old ways, actually became the "cutting edge" experts that basically laid down the "groundwork of basic rules to using CGI" that we use today. Taking scans, composites, frame by frame, single articulation of computer models at a time, addition of fur, or wind, or water effects..... everything we take for granted TODAY when it comes to computer graphics, they laid down the foundation brick-by-brick that has made it one of the most used elements of movies for basically 30 years now.
Magy, so many people bought thier kids to see it at the movies, and lots of them wanted to leave during the t-rex attacks. So ironic how Allen started off hating kids , then found he was daddy material after all (Note the knowing look Ellie gives him on the chopper as they leave)
As a kid, named Tim and was really into dinosaurs.. man I got teased from this movie lol. I was 7 :s
I was 3 years old when I parents brought me to this movie. My earliest memory in life is watching this movie in theaters and all these years later, it is easily my favorite movie of all times. I loved it even as a child.
@@richardgaldos6901 Some serious nostalgia right there.
This movie was breaking point in use of CGI, never before effects looks so realistic and it stands till today. Altough full CGI scenes were minimum, most of them were practical effects with animatronic puppets. That's the reason why it look so well. Fun fact: George Lucas was so impressed with visual effects so he decide it's time to start with work on SW prequels.
Great reaction Magy, I love your reactions most all of the other reactors, so thumbs up 👍🙂
Terminator 2 was actually ground breaking as far as CGI is concerned. Jurassic Park was the pinnacle of animatronics. Both movies limited CGI which is why they hold up so well 30 years later.
@@IdealUser That's true, Im not denying it. But my point was about realistic look of visual effects. T-1000 still look more plastic then liquid metal, but it was one of the bigger steps in use of CGI, I admit.
Unfortunately George ended up using way too much CGI in the prequels.
fun reaction. One of the most energetic intros on TH-cam, always brings a smile seeing how excited you are in the start. BTW, some scientists have been trying for years to revive a wooly mammoth. Not exactly a Jurassic dinosaur but definitely an extinct species. The epic line from this about being in such a hurry to see if you could do it, you don't stop to think if you SHOULD.
In the theater when this came out that moment where the huge dinosaurs first comes on screen was a moment. CGI was brand new and this was the first time that dinosaurs were shown to be like actual living creatures, it was great to watch back then. And your line Magy of, "I'm not going to look at the water the same way again" reminds me of the response Jaws received from the public when it was released way back. Also, the latest research is that a T-Rex could likely travel at 10-12 miles per hour, so a fast human could, with a head start, outrun one.
if you notice the significance of when Grant had to put 2 seatbelts and tie them together you'll be pleasantly surprised
30 years of Jurassic Park 🎈🎈🎈🎊🎉🦖🦕🦕⛈️🦟⛏️🐐🧬🤠🚁🚙🌴🌴🌳🌳🌿🌿🍃🍃🧑🔬 1993-2023
38:07 Your "don't be suspicious" song was adorable and I refuse to live in lies.
This movie is still great the story great, the CGI is amazing, the cast was excellent (some have come back for Jurassic world Dominion) John Williams does the iconic music. Great reaction Magy 😃
I thought the music was by Syvestrie.
@@ravissary79 nope it's John Williams
@@thestanleys3657 you're right! I must have been thinking of The Avengers. But I misspelled his name.
FUN FACT: The sound crew mixed different animals for the sounds of the dinosaurs. The T-Rex roars in particular is a baby elephant mixed with a tiger and an alligator.
The scene where the T-Rex rips apart the Gallimimus at 33:04 is the sound of a dog attacking a rope toy.
My #1 favorite movie of all time!
Fun Fact: before Spielberg took over the project, Joe Dante Richard Donner James Cameron and Tim Burton were considered for directing.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, Michael Douglas, Tom Hanks, Sam Shepard, Pierce Brosnan, Nick Nolte, Kurt Russell, Jeff Bridges, Richard Dreyfuss, Michael Biehn, Dylan McDermott, and Tom Sizemore were considered for Alan Grant
Kelly McGillis, Julia Roberts, Linda Hamilton, Bridget Fonda, Jodie Foster, Nicole Kidman, Melanie Griffith, Kyra Sedgwick, Uma Thurman, Sigourney Weaver, Robin Wright Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Teri Hatcher, Elizabeth Hurley, Sherilyn Fenn, Heather Graham, Lisa Rinna, Renee Zellweger, Kim Raver, Geena Davis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Meg Ryan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Joan Cusack, Debra Winger, Juliette Lewis, Helen Hunt, Genevieve Bujold, and Marika Hargitay were considered for Ellie Satler.
Johnny Depp, Jim Carrey, Michael Keaton, Bruce Campbell, Steve Guttenberg, Ted Danson, Michael J Fox, and Bill Paxton were considered for Ian Malcolm.
Clint Eastwood, Ian Bannen, Charlton Heston, Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, and Sean Connery were considered for John Hammond.
Jeffrey Jones, Bob Hoskins, Brian Cox, and Geoffrey Rush were considered for Robert Muldoon.
The film was a box office and critical success making $1 billion dollars ( $1.8 billion dollars today) against a $65 million dollar budget.
So many quotable lines:
Shoot haaaa!!!!
Dodgson, we've got Dodgson here!
Look stick, stick stupid.
Ah, ah, ahhh . . . you didn't say the magic words.
Dino DNA!
We've spared no expense.
Welcome . . . to JurASSic park.
Hold on to yo butts.
That is one big pile of $#!T.
Must go faster, must go faster.
Yeah but when the Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down the pirates don't eat the tourists.
They're uh . . . they're flocking this way.
Clever girl.
I saw this opening weekend and it's still one of the best movie experiences I ever had. The whole beginning you could hear people whispering to each other and eating popcorn but the second they showed the Brontosaurus it was dead quiet because everyone just stared in total disbelief that we were seeing realistic looking Dinosaurs in all their glory right before our eyes.
Also the part with the Lawyer saying how much people will pay saying $10,000 in 1993 when adjusted for inflation it's the equivalent of just a little over $20,000 today.
Edit because I almost forgot: 14:57 there's a cameo of Amber Herd's bed.
I think it's a Brachiosaurus in that scene, not a Brontosaurus :) But either way, that scene of the first big reveal still gives me chills even now after watching the movie a dozen times or more. The scene's combination of incredible VFX, Sam Neill and Laura Dern's expressive performances building the anticipation before the reveal, and John Williams's score make it an absolutely perfect scene!
"Well, we're back...in the car again." 😝 All that tree-climbing for nothing.
43:11 Magy: "Ok lesson learned, don't play with nature & extinct species."
46:26 Magy: I feel like someone may go back & try to re-open the park, which would be a mistake.
Me: 1.) "We have have two more movies & a second trilogy. So, nope!"
2.)" 'All new & even bigger mistakes' are on the way. Stay tuned!"
My dad actually met the kid who played Tim. He had the job of driving him to the set of a movie he was working on, called Starkid. My dad said that he was very shy.
NONE of the sequels even come close to the magic that this movie had, it just gets better with age, not because the film changes but because your age changes the way you see the film, the whole Dr Grant realising he wants kids thing was WAYYYYY over my head when i was ten years old but now it almost brinjgs a tear to my eye
Yeah, but practicality the seatbelt wouldn't *work* like that and, well, come on, the male side of the seatbelt was there somewhere he took Elle's female end and, well, he couldn't figure out the seatbelt. ;)
But, yeah, remove your logic and take the scene at face-value and it's a cute play on things.
I’m so glad people are reacting to this movie again! Definitely one of my all time favs 😍
The scene with T.Rex in the rain, that scene alone has no music, just straight up sound effects, which makes it even more scary.
One thing that Jurassic Park fixed in later episodes is that just because animals are herbivores, it doesn't mean they won't be territorial, aggressive or just kill you for no reason. People like to blame the person just for being there, but anyone who gets too near a bison, bull, moose, the wrong deer's fawn, a rhino, elephant, gorilla or hippo will painfully, or fatally learn that agression isn't about what you eat. It can be about territory or protecting offspring, or just being in heat.
Great reaction, Magy!!! I remember when this came to theaters! It stayed in theaters FOREVER!!! It was unbelievably popular. I loved your "don't be suspicious" during Tim and Lex's raptor scene!!! The way Grant's attitude towards children "evolves" and at the end, the way he looks at Ellie while he has the kids asleep in his arms is precious :)
Shortly after the T-rex showed up, Dr Grant's paternal instincts began kicking in. That's why he grabbed the flare, that's why he went after Timmy and reassured Lex, that's why he put his arms around them and stayed awake during the night.
The paternal instinct is real, and a beautiful thing.
Funny that in real life, the rain made the T-Rex anamatronic
Saw this in the theater at a late night showing... after, leaving the theater, the wind in the trees at night, i genuinely paused watching for anything moving in the woods!
"Well, I think we can all agree that the park is not safe." Oh, I dunno... a few minor tweaks and I'm sure everything will be great! 😉🤣
When I first saw this in the theater, the A/C was on so there was a slight draft and I felt like I was outside when the brachiosaur showed up. It was... immersive.
At the lunch when Grant said, "The world has just changed so radically, and we're all running to catch up". Yeah, I felt that.
I did a little research and determined that the brachiosaur seems about 25% larger than it should be. But sizes of the brachiosaur seem to vary, from a little over twice the height of an adult giraffe, to larger.
dennis wasn't really running away, he was trying to meet his contact at the boat. he really wanted to get back as soon as he had made the exchange so that no one would be the wiser. he just didn't plan on the weather.
I also saw this movie as a kidlette! With my mum and brother in the cinema, I was super young and loved dinosaurs - but I think my mum regretted taking me and going herself! She found the t-rex scenes scary and I...well, lets just say during the Raptor hunting the kid's scene I "dropped my lollies and had to go look for them behind the seats" 😂
I had a great imagination, so a movie like this terrified me as a kid! If we ever to get the ability to bring them back... let's start with the small herbivores 😉
As fantastic the effects are - combining early CG and practical in a way that modern movies need to learn from, there are 2 scenes that once I learnt about I can't unsee. The first is while the raptor's are hunting the kids, around when one stands in the door way to summon its friends, you can actually see in the back ground a stage hand holding onto one of the raptors. The other occurs as the CG t-rex eats the CG raptor at the end of the film - for about 1 frame the raptor stops rendering and is just not there.
It's so engrossing I never noticed it until it was pointed out! I also always forget Samual L Jackson is in this flick.
Oh, and I can''t hold it against the kid Tim for not jumping off the fence. The first time I went rock climbing, my body refused to let go of the wall to be lowered by my belayer to the ground. I just froze up and in the end down climbed the wall
Steven Spielberg who directed Jurassic Park became a top name director and ultimately truly saw his career take off when as an unknown new movie director he directed the original or what is often called the original summer blockbuster movie, that is credited with make people truly afraid of the water, 1975’s “Jaws”. Steven Spielberg often said in interviews that Jaws both his greatest movie making experience but it ultimately made him the famous movie director that he is today and his worst movie making experience because of the challenges he faced shooting on the open ocean and dealing with a fake mechanical movie monster shark that often didn’t work. For many jaws is the movie referred to when talking of ones fear of the water and or the ocean.
Our 7th grade English teacher made the book our first read of the year in anticipation of the movie release. It was my first real world taste of adult fiction. At the time, I had no idea that book and movie would leave an everlasting impact on my life. Another angle to all of this was the movie score written by John Williams. It was just as impactful on me as the movie (being a music geek) I can still see the cassette tape on my dresser next to my tape player.
Stephen Robert Irwin (22 February 1962 to 4 September 2006) was an Australian zookeeper, conservationist, television personality and wildlife expert whose casual approach to handling wildlife had the world, many times, react to his nerves and gall with wide eyes. "Is he _nuts?_ My _god."_ It earned him the nickname "The Crocodile Hunter."
Leading up to his death (while dealing with stingrays, wouldn't you know), I had been teasing the notion of possibly making a movie in the _Jurassic Park_ series with _him_ in it.
"Now _this_ old girl stands _20 meters tall._ She's got incisors _18 centimeters long._ She could snap a fellow _my_ size _right_ in two with _one_ bight. Ain't she a beauty?"
I was in kindergarten when I saw Jurassic Park, which may have been a bit too young to see it, but I loved it back then and I love it now. As a kid it was mostly the dinosaurs, but as an adult I appreciate not just the dinosaurs but the plot as well.
The thing about this is Hammond says he’s spared no expense but nedry (the traitor) was the only one doing to programming and it should’ve been a team. Nedry was doing the work of a team of programmers by himself but was severely underpaid for it. He’s working on an island with dinosaurs but he says he can’t afford new glasses if he loses his. No excuse for what he did but if you’re lied to, used and abused you’re going to get disgruntled so his actions do make sense
The dinosaurs look so real, because they actually built them. Most of the dinosaurs you see are puppets or animatronics. They only time they are CGI is when they are walking or running. The scene where the T-Rex is standing on the car and roaring was done with a life sized animatronic T-Rex. They had problems with it, because the skin started soaking up the rain, and the robot under it started shaking and jerking. They would have to stop filming, dry off the Rex, and start filming again. In the second movie, they put the Rex on a track so it could move, and only CGed the legs.
I love science, but certain things have absolutely no business being tampered with; this movie conveys that message perfectly!
This is why the Big One was such an aggressive raptor. It changed into a male and killed the others for control
Fun fact : the animated t-rex would keep on switching itself on and off during scene and lunch time breaks as it kept malfunctioning scaring the actors
Like Jaws in 1975 or Star Wars in 1977, future generations will never experience what it was like when this one first came out. Our world had never seen anything like this. Your generation sees CGI all day every day. It all stands upon the shoulders of the giants who came before you. This is one of those giants. We were all blown away by what we were seeing when this was release. I hope you enjoy all these years later. You deserve the amazement we experienced.
24:07, "Yeah, take some more." Savage Magy!
"Partners in crime" Lol! Best way to define the Raptors
Love ur reactions Magy 😻
I saw this movie with my family on the second day of release at Pleasure Island in Walt Disney World. It was such a surreal moment! Everyone in the theater started laughing when Dr. Hammond said that he should have built his park in Orlando, because we were all sitting in a theater in Orlando hahaha! 😂😂😂
5:22 He had both female ends of the seat belt, but still found a way to make it work. The dinosaurs were all female, but life still found a way to make it work.
Fun Fact 2: The "Kitchen Scene" was planned out frame by frame on both a "drafting board" AND through "stop-motion". By using both forms of planning camera angles and timing, the computers were able to put one of the most memorable moments in cinema into the movie that STILL terrifies generations to this day. It is also one of the most referenced scenes in a TON of movies afterward, including several TV-shows and animated movies/shows.
Is there any wonder why this movie was entered into the "National Archive of Film" in order to preserve it for generations to come. Meaning that the ORIGINAL format that the movie was released in was saved BY USA CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY in order to ensure that no matter what no format of technology we create today, we will always have a copy of this movie available to transfer from the original format to the new technology. Even in Blue-Ray at 1000p (and above), this movie STILL looks amazing on both the big screen and on televisions or computer around the world. (And there have been several "limited release" in theaters that have sold out EVERY TIME just because people still want to see the effects on the big screen and how much bigger in theaters all the dinosaurs were intended to look.
When Dr. Hammond encouraged the baby dino to break out its shell and Magy said, sweetly, "this is the beauty of nature," I immediately thought of the T-rex chomping on the guy on the toilet. Ah, the beauty of nature.
Yes!! Jurassic Park! The original and the best. I remember the first time I saw this movie when i was a kid and 30 years later it still looks better than most modern day films. They did a great job making the dinosaurs look so realistic. Great reaction as always, Magy!
Fun Fact Jurassic Park is considered one of longest theater run films. It played in theaters across America from June 9th 1993 until October 1994. The films premise as well as the mixture of Practical and CGI effects were considered a true marvel of the early 90's. I remember my family saw this in theaters like 5-10 times before it finally went to Home Video.
man Jurassic Park, I remember my grandmother bought it on VHS for me, remember watching it over and over again, made me into one of does weird kids that loved dinosaurs back when I was like 7/8, man good times, simpler times lol hope it hold up to my nostalgic memories
You think that's scary there are a few reptiles today that are fully capable of doing that too. Both Nile and Saltwater Crocodiles learn patterns and will attack when its the best opportunity. We have a few Nile crocodiles that were in a Zoo in Chicago that were so dangerous that they remembered where the doors were at feeding times and were waiting for the keepers to open them. Got so bad and had one too many close calls that they started feeding them from the ceiling instead to avoid the chance of the Croc's grabbing one of the keepers, which is exactly what they were trying to do every time those old feeding side doors opened. Sharks are also capable of learning too
For being 30-ish years old the CG holds up very well.
Looks better thsn some new movies.
Hi Magic Magy Jurassic Park was my childhood and that John William's score is truly iconic! One of the greatest films ever made
Magy talking about kids: "Ha, Ha, they will be traumatised for life".
20:20 those hard to open snack-packs can be really frustrating.
37:34 "Unless they figure out how to open doors" she just had to say that 😂😂
Best Jurassic park movie ever, all the sequels aren't even close even with the better CGI
The T-rex in this movie shows up years later in the Jurassic World movies by then she's quite an old dinosaur but still strong enough to hunt and kill plus her name is Rexy.
Plus she still has the scars from her battle with the two raptors.
Honestly, the more I watch this movie, the more bad I feel for Nedry, especially after reading the book too.
That whole conversation where Hammond blames him for his financial issues is really unfair because Hammond is the cause of them. Basically how Hammond advertised for the position Nedry took was incredibly vague, and just said they needed an onsite expert to set up the computer system for a "zoo". Thinking it was a normal run of the mill Zoo, Nedry, wanting to snag what he felt was gonna be an easy, quick and cheep job, undercut the competition and offered a much lower estimate to get everything set up, which Hammond quickly agreed to. However once he finally was brought out to the island and saw what he was actually having to do he realised he'd made a huge mistake. Building a system that would manage all areas of a park this size and with the power levels needed to contain Dinosaurs as well as run all other aspects of the park was going to cost far more than he's initially told Hammond and he was forced to do it by himself instead of bringing out any of his team, due to the secrecy of the island at the time. But Hammond saw this as Nedry's failing, that he shouldn't have agreed to a price that he couldn't keep to, and because the deal was already signed, he was contractually obligated to continue work, despite the fact that it was actually bankrupting him to do so. It doesn't make what he does right, but I can at least understand why he does it.
I think people are a little harsh on Dennis Nedry. I mean, at the worst, he's committing corporate espionage, and grand larceny perhaps. It's hardly worth a death sentence. And technically, they're on a private island, so there probably aren't any laws, or government, for that matter, short of the corporate regulations and leadership, respectively. There was no way for him to know that people would die because of his actions, and I'm sure he didn't mean to hurt anyone. He was just trying to make some extra money.
The first film to use CGI to create realistic organic creatures! To this day, the wide shots of the T-Rex in the rain are some of the most realistic CGI to date! 🦖
The CGI is not that good, it's all the practical stuff that looks amazeing
@@friendlyreptile9931 Look at the shot of the T-Rex walking from Grants car/POV to the one with the kids. It’s flawless.
@@JedHead77 Yeh, there are 2-3 rly good cgi moments like this one were they even blend from practical to cgi. That's true, but there is also bad cgi like the moment where they arrive at JP and see the first dinos or the raptors in the kitchen cgi.
@@friendlyreptile9931 For the *very first film* to do it, it’s still pretty f*#kin’ good!
@@JedHead77 Yeah, i allways forget about the fact that this was the first movie that used CGI for that reason.
At 4:50 the noise the can/squeal makes foreshadows the dinosaur that kills him
My Dear Magy, Welcome To Jurassic Park! And Welcome To The Day When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth!
Spared no expense
This and its sequel The Lost World are based on the Michael Crichton novels of the same name, though a number of changes were made. After those two are Jurassic Park 3, Jurassic World, Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, the newly released Jurassic World Dominion, the short film Battle at Big Rock and the Netflix animated series Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous. There are also a multitude of videogames. Just like with Terminator 2, this perfectly utilized animatronics, miniatures, puppets, makeup and computer generated effects. Another creature horror film by Steven Spielberg I recommend watching is Jaws
