Just a friendly reminder that this is my very first reaction video and after doing these videos once a week for a month and a half now or so, I can safely say that my more recent videos are better 🤣
Started out great! I remember reading a movie review when it came out. (God damn, I'm old...) The critic did a smart thing; he brought a professional paleontologist with him to the theatre, and then he gave his own opinions plus described the paleontologists reaction. He was excited like a child, jumping in the seat and clapping as soon as there were dinos on the screen. It was a delightful read.
Seatbelt scene is great cus the two seatbelts are both latches or as they are commonly called "females" but Dr. Grant made them work together just like how the dinosaurs are all female but still found a way to work and breed
Fun fact Samuel L Jackson was supposed to get a chase and death scene but the set they were supposed to work on got blown away by a real life hurricane
@@echoplots8058 yep lots of times because of all the rain water getting into the electronics and it was extremely dangerous for people who had to get into the Rex's mouth to fix things but basically the Rex hit the glass harder than they intended too
The legit screams of the stunt people anyways. One of 'em copped a broken wrist from this malfunction, but it sure did heighten the tension in the final product!
Fun fact. My parents took me to the theater to watch this when I was 5 thinking it was a kids dinosaur movie. I spent the movie hiding and screaming under the chair 😂 Was a innocent mistake
No offense to them but why don't parents look into anything at all? The fact that it was PG-13 should've tipped them off that it wasn't a kids movie. Still not as bad as the parents that took their children to go see Deadpool though. But I'm still mad at the parents that complain about Grand Theft Auto games because it's not appropriate for their 7 year olds to be playing. I was 11 or 12 when I saw this in the theater the first time but my parents actually went to the movie BEFORE they took us to see how bad it was. They decided it wasn't so bad and so they took us kids. It was a great time even though we were plenty scared at times as well. Hope you weren't scarred for life with this movie though! :P
I was 9, when I accidentally saw the transformation scene from American werewolf, cause it was shown during a saturday evening show. The moment, when his eyes changed followed me for months.
Lol I was 18 when I saw it in the theater & it was scary then. U poor thing. 😃🤭 We also hadn’t seen ANYTHING like this before it came out so it was shocking to everyone. But to a 5 y/o?! Holy. Velociraptor.😱 Were u scarred for life?
@@MysterClark I mean... it would have been a little harder to look into a trailer back in 1993 unless you saw it in another movie, and even then they didn't give much away. Would've been pretty easy for parents to just go "oh, a dinosaur movie" and think it was fine lol
@@OGBReacts Love your reactions Jurassic Park Amazing movie 💖 and Yes definitely 💯 it's good the mean old lawyer guy Dies first lol he selfishly abbonond those poor kids Desperately trying to hide sitting on the toilet 😥 and Rexy 🦖 She found him and Eaten him up 😋 anyways LOL it's actually pretty funny and he Deserves it wouldn't you agree?
@@OGBReacts Thanks for the 💖 but wouldn't you agree with me it was actually pretty funny looking the way Rexy was Shaking him around like playing with Her food before Eating him up 😋??
@@OGBReacts I Sooo Love 😍the way You we're like YESSS👍 when Rexy bites him up to Eat him LOL!!!!! And you could still hear him yealling like AWWWW NOOOO because he Sooo didn't want to get Eaten up but he does YUP 🤩👍
Even more so as a standalone book, since the characters who die in the movie are alive in the book and vice versa. But Crichton went and wrote a sequel based on the movie anyway. I knew it was doomed then.
@@spangelicious837 Oh it was just annoying how when you start reading the second book all of a sudden you find out the people that survived the first one that died in the movie just happened to have died between books from completely unrelated trivial things (not to mention how Ian Malcolm basically dies in the first book but turns out to have been only slightly dead by the second one so he can be the main character there after Goldblum's popularity with the character).
@@edward18517 I'll bet. I never read it. I did see the second movie when it first came out on video, but after that, I never bothered with them. I saw Jurassic World while at my brother's house awhile back and found it pretty underwhelming and the ending outright stupid.
@@spangelicious837 To be fair, he was pressured into it by the studio. Like all of his books, JP was meant to be a standalone warning of the hubris of man in a specific situation. It's too bad the studios have turned it into the mess it is today.
The greatness of this movie at the time was largely due to the breakthrough in technology of making dinosaurs look that good on screen. Today it looks typical but back then it was movie magic. Great observation that this should be a stand alone movie. I personally didn’t think the sequels were any good - just more dinosaurs running amuck, eating people, people running away. Maybe the one with Chris Pratt was okay. Loved the Yelp review at the end!
The one with Chris Pratt is not good. It trick you with a bunch of nostalgia but if you think about how the plot works you realise it only works because the characters make stupid decisions. spoilers Case and point, the dino escapes by tricking the humans that it climb the wall and they can't see it on the sensors, so Pratt goes inside the paddock and the women driving back to HQ only then decides to ask to track the dino with the implanted tracker. Like WTF that should been the first she did and Pratt shouldn't of went inside the paddock at all. If they used even an ounce common sense then that dino wouldn't of escaped. And don't even get me started about wanting to use dinosaurs for the military.
@@shadowphoenix1696 YESSS!!!! I SAID THE SAME THING!!!! I literally can't watch Jurassic World because that was the worst fuck up and I just can't get past it (the Indominous Rex scene)!!! The characters were idiots 😑😑
The sequels don't measure up to this one, sure, but Jurassic Park is the gold standard... When you compare them to most other dinosaur movies suddenly they're not so bad... 😂
was looking to see if someone put that in comments for her. Recently heard, they believe it slammed into a natural sulfur deposit which made the global effect blocking the sun that much worse.
and in fact it was just confirmed last month that they found the traces that validate that theory. Chixculub meteor, 12 miles wide. Tsunamis locally then decades of nuclear winter...
we have tech to clone, but its impossible to get dna the way they did in this movie, the dna in the mosquitoes from dinos would have completely decayed away by now, no matter how well preserved the mosquito in the amber
@@LivingTheLifeOfRiley Yeah, the half-life of DNA is only somewhere around 50k years or so. However, there IS a prehistoric animal that we might be able to clone someday, and there's actually a plan in motion to try and do so for scientific and ecological purposes: the Woolly Mammoth.
"Do we actually know where the meteor crashed into the Earth?" Actually, yes we do ... it's the largest meteor crater on the Earth's surface ... except that it doesn't look like a crater because it's filled with water - the Gulf of Mexico.
The gulf is FAR to big, the crater is partially in it, it’s on the Yucatán peninsula, named the Chicxulub crater after a town that I think is in it... or at least nearby, and it’s not really visible as it’s mainly eroded away and covered by sediments and rock.
I had to read this book freshman year in college and answered my biggest issues with movie. When the storm hit, the staff did not evacuate the island. When the power went out, it automatically switched to auxiliary power (which did not energize fences but powered everything else). Switching the power back on would have been easy-peasy, however, they had not practiced what to do during a power outage and it did not occur anyone to check the power until the auxiliary generators ran out of gas. There was even a panel that showed they were running on auxiliary power. That’s why they had to travel to the shack to pump up the circuit that switched the power back, no auxiliary power to switch it remotely. And they ran into pockets of trapped staff around the island. I wish they would have kept those details for the movie because I kept asking why they had such a stupid setup and no backups when they “spared no expense”.
I love the little bit of foreshadowing with Grant trying to get his seatbelt on during the descent. He has 2 female connectors, but finds a way to make them work.
I do find it funny that so many people watching the rex breakout sequence are like, "...why are you guys just sitting in the car? DO SOMETHING." Like, do what? The rex rolls, pulls apart, and smashes down a Ford Explorer, and the most dangerous thing any of them has is a signal flare.
This was the film where Jeff truly nailed the Kooky Eccentric Nerd thing that has defined his career since JP. He was heading this way with the likes of The Fly, but this was where he reached his final form.
2 years later “Girl just tripped on air, you think she’s actually going to survive a T-Rex attack? What you mean?!” Still the best comment ever lol. 💯 need it to be a T-Shirt.
"Thanks for the vacation trip, Grandpa!" Though for the first time I connected this to a real "Thanks for the vacation trip!" story. When I was teaching English in Korea, one of my co-workers went to Thailand for her Christmas vacation trip, a gift from her grandmother. She ended up very nearly getting killed in the Boxing Day Tsunami. "Thanks for the trip, Grandma!"
The impact site, known as the Chicxulub crater, is centered on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. The asteroid is thought to have been between 10 and 15 kilometers wide, but the velocity of its collision caused the creation of a much larger crater, 150 kilometers in diameter - the second-largest crater on the planet. Created the Gulf of Mexico.
No, the crater is 180± kilometres across, the Gulf is approximately 1500 kilometres across and was created by the collision of North and South America, the crater is centred in the sea with the peninsula being on the rim, and it is only the third largest crater on Earth, behind Sudbury and Vredeforte. Apart from that, what you said is correct. My apologies, I got the size of the gulf of Mexico wrong. I may be spelling Vredeforte wrong to, I'm not certain.
*Doctor Grant makes a distasteful joke about being electrocuted by the fence, offline without power and without incident.* Reaction: "That is so fucked up... ;O ;S" /12 second later *Timmy ACTUALLY getting electrocuted by the high power fence, getting flung through the air and experiencing a cardiac arrest as a result.* Reaction: *Cannot stop laughing*.... xD
12:17 T-Rex: "You should have let me sleep!" :3 "0 out of five stars". Whenever I feel strongly about a negative experience, I say "f u" rather than "0" XD "I almost died a bunch of times, I give this an F U out of 5!" XD
16:08 Ian ignited the 2nd flare to lead the T-Rex further away from the wrecked car to buy Dr. Grant more time to save both kids. Dr. Grant's flare would've only distracted the Rex momentarily.
You remember that fiasco with the seatbelts on the helicopter? Grant had two female belt buckles, meaning he couldn't hook them together. But he tied them together to still get strapped down. He found a way. That was the most subtle foreshadowing I've ever seen. Also, fun fact I didn't notice until literally a month ago: Until Jurassic World, no women were killed or eaten in the franchise.
Fun fact. We already possess cloning tech - we already did when this movie came out. Dolly the sheep was successfully cloned in 1996, for one. This sort of science has not been publicly tested on humans because of ethical reasons and more, but it's probably been done already. They also want to use the same tech to save animals from extinction - alternatively, bring back long dead animals like the mammoth and more. Mammoth would be easy, considering how many fully intact mammoths that have been recovered from the frozen north of Russia and elsewhere.
A sheep named, Dolly, was the first successful cloning of a mammal. That happened 3 yrs after the film. You just KNOW some of us were thinking of this movie, and wondering... lol
The T-Rex Paddock scene took a while to film as the animatronic was not built to be under a rain machine. The crew had to dry it off every few minutes as the servos were unable to cope with the added 1000 lbs of water that the skin absorbed. That's why the glass roof of the Explorer broke as the Rex was heavier than it should have been. There's a lot of differences between the movie and the Michael Crichton novel, namely the survivors and victims Book: Alan, Ellie, Tim, Lex, Muldoon, and Gennaro live; Hammond, Nedry, Wu, Ian (though the sequel shows he survived), Arnold, and a bunch of workers and scientists die Movie: Alan, Ellie, Tim, Lex, Hammond, Ian, and most of the workers and scientists live; Gennaro, Nedry, Muldoon, and Arnold die
Also remember this movie was made in ‘93. The pelicans at the end and bird-talk throughout is important. While it was more accepted by academics at the time, this movie is largely responsible for exposing the masses to the idea that dinosaurs were more closely related to birds than to other traditional reptiles. In fact, even scientifically, while the idea had been proposed as early as the 1800s by Huxley and supported by Ostrom in the ‘60s with the discovery of Deinonychus (the inspiration for these Velociraptors in particular) it wasn’t until AFTER this movie when feathered non-avian dinosaur fossils started to be found in China that the theory really became the standard for how we think about birds as dinosaurs.
"It's making me anxious" Imagine watching it in theaters. I was 12 and had nightmares for decades. And we DO have tech to make clones, but the blood inside the mosquitos are too messed up, like shuffle letters in a book. At this right moment, scientists are working on cloning mammoths.
14:58- the bit where the glass from the car roof caved in was NOT supposed to happen; the T-rex prop just overpushed. The kids' scream of terror are genuine; and who can blame them?!
fun trivia: the scene where Alan ties the two 'female' ends of a seatbelt together is a tie-in to how all the 'female' dinosaurs on the island will 'find a way to work' in terms of breeding.
With Nedry’s death there has been speculations that they’re not one, but two of them one that spit venom at him, and the second one snuck into the car.
I love, love, love this movie. I've been fascinated by dinosaurs since I was a kid in the 60s, been fascinated by movie special effects and animation since I was a kid, watching Ray Harryhausen stop action animation with my dad, and been a student of computer graphics and animation since it was in its infancy, still confined to 3 university computer science departments in the entire country. When this came out, it was a breakthrough accomplishment in CGI. But... When Lex says, "This is Unix", that's not Unix. That was an experimental graphical user interface for Unix she would never have seen. When this came out, I was a Unix programmer, and working in Unix was just typing to a command prompt. (When The Terminator came out, I was programming in 6502 assembly language on the Commodore 64 game console, and recognized 6502 as the Terminator’s native language lol) The "electrocution" scene always bugged me. First, even if you were thrown clear, it'd kill you. More than 50 volts is sufficient to kill and that was 10,000 volts. Second, you wouldn't be thrown clear. Electrocution causes your muscles to contract, so little Timmy's hands would've clamped onto the fence, holding him there. Dr. Grant shouldn't have touched the fence to test it, and he definitely shouldn't have wrapped his hands around it. Third, they didn't have to climb the fence. They easily could have crawled through. Unless you're really obese, your body can fit through a space not much bigger than your head. A man of science should've known these things. If you see someone being electrocuted, do not grab hold of them with your hands to pull them away. The electricity will flow through them to you, your hands will clamp onto them, and you'll be locked in a death grip.
The seatbelt thing at 6:30 is Spielberg foreshadowing the dinosaurs and nature finding a way to allow them to breed with the frog DNA and sex changing. Grant is trying to mash two female ends of the seatbelts together... so instead ties them in a knot. He finds a way to make it work, just like the dinosaurs do. 16:14 Ian grabbed the flare and tried to emulate what Grant had done... he even screams "Get the kids!" Dude loves kids like he says earlier, and his main thing is to allow Grant time to get to the kids and save them. He's literally willing to sacrifice his own life so that Grant can get the kids out of a deadly situation. Best way to watch this movie is as a satire of large companies. The fences are shit, Hammond has screwed over the only worker who can access the computers, the car windows and doors don't lock, the guns are shit, the guy in charge of animal control knows nothing about dinosaurs, and yet Hammond constantly barks he spared no expense.
Suggestions for Consideration: - Goonies - Flight of the Navigator - ET - Raiders of the Lost Ark - Gremlins - Batteries Not Included - Stand By Me - Ghostbusters (1984 one) - The Breakfast Club - Ferris Bueller's Day Off - Almost Christmas - Spaceballs - The Princess Bride - Honey I Shrunk the Kids - Who Framed Roger Rabbit - Little Shop of Horrors - Close Encounters of the Third Kind - Mr Holland's Opus - Mary Poppins (the original, not the reboot) - A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood
@@OGBReacts yeah, I know there are a lot there. I wasn't going to say Lord of the Rings because you already did. Sorry, one more, the Neverending Story
One of the biggest Oh Shit moments for me in the book was when Malcolm was proving to the island lab techs that dinosaurs were breeding by having the techs take attendance with the motion sensors. The scientists only expected to find 100 or so and that's what they used for the counting algorithm, but Malcolm told them to increase the algorithm's expected number and it kept getting matched! The number of raptors alone jumped from 7 expected to 36 found!! The mistake from the get-go was the techs' main concern was missing a dinosaur and to only be alerted if the count was lower; they never expected to need an alert if MORE dinosaurs showed up.
This was the first movie to ever give me nightmares as a child. I was 100% convinced that a raptor was going to come around my bedroom corner and eat me 😂 But I was also only 6 when this came out so...lol
7:25 I really love the RiffTrax bit right there: "Hey, we're over here too!" "You know, you guys should _really_ look *slightly* to the left more often! You pick up on some neat stuff that way!"
We cloned a sheep in 1995. Maybe you were too young to hear about it. "If it hadn't been for being in someone else's digestion, I'd be apologizing to you 48 hours later"
Unfortunately, DNA wouldn't survive even inside a mosquito trapped in amber. But since birds are the last living group of dinosaurs, their genetics already allow for long since gone features to keep developing, they got a chicken embryos (if I recall correctly) to continue developing tails, etc. by flipping those genes back on, which normally turn off during development.
If the raptor noise scared you, you would have loved the theatrical release. They had just developed CDS digital sound, and at the theater where I saw it they had the volume turned up to 11. When Dennis Nedry opened the shaving cream, the high pitched squeak made everyone jump. The dinosaur roars went right up your nerves. When we left the theater, my balance was all weird. I've never been to another movie where they had the sound up that loud.
A couple of years after this came out, my family and my sisters bf were watching this. When the Rex came out of the trees and grabbed that ostrich like dino, my cat ran across the back of the couch and scared the crap out of the bf.
I still remember the first time I saw this movie, So freakin amazing. I think it still holds up today as one of the great ones. Pretty cool that you chose this one as your first reaction video. Shows that even if you haven't seen it, You still have great taste in movies.. Lol 🙂
The velociraptor in the movie is actually a Utah Raptor. Velociraptor is small like a turkey and Utah raptor is much bigger , the Utah raptor was discovered after the book was written so they went with the Utah raptor for the movie.
Actually, they used the Deinonychus for the Velociraptor's size in the movies. Utahraptor was actually MUCH larger. A minimum of 8ft tall and 20ft long. The Velociraptors in the movie series are smaller than that
Great reaction! This might be my favorite movie of all time or its way up there. Why do I enjoy watching people react to movies I’ve already seen before so much?? I have no idea but I’m glad you enjoyed the ride. Now you have to watch it again but this time try to pick up on all the inconsistencies! 😂
"This would absolutely happen if we had the technology to clone" - 1) we do have the technology to clone, eversince Dolly the sheep 2) DNA degrades over time, there's no way viable DNA would be found that old. A few thousand years, maybe, that might be remotely possible - but millions of years? No. "What is your favorite Dinosaur?" - Thank you for asking! It's Microraptor, a small type of four-winged (flight feathers on both the arms and legs) early paravian dinosaur from what's now China.
@@206beastman No. Just that by going "remember Dolly the Sheep" sort of suggests it's something she's experienced or should even "remember" but since it happened well before she was born, it isn't other than it being mentioned in some chapter in a science book she may or may not have covered in a science class she took several years ago in high school.
If you're interested, the boy who played Timmy (the boy grandchild of John Hammond) in this movie, stars as the protagonist in the 90s movie Star Kid, which is about an AI robotic suit from an alien planet crashing to the Earth after a barbaric alien species attacked the planet, the suit meets a boy who's been bullied at school. You might be able to watch the movie for Free on TH-cam "Free Movies" list btw.
The Astroid impact was at the Yucatán peninsula Mexico... Southern Mexico/Southern golf of mexico ,,,The impact wasn't straight on, The impact Was from an angle ,,,Causing even more damage and ejected Material... The crater size is 93 miles in diameter , Size of the astroid is between 6 and 15 miles wide...its the 2 nd largest impact on earth the 1st Largest crater on earth is 190 miles in diameter in southern Africa, Which happened over 2 billion years ago....
Considering how many times the characters in this series almost get killed by dinosaurs, you'd think there'd be some kind of dinosaur-attack support group/crisis center.
What is my favorite dinosaur? Well, thanks to *Jurassic Park* (and the sequels that followed), my favorite (and my obsession) is...drumroll, please...the Velociraptor. I love these dinosaurs to the extreme! I always wanted one for a pet, thanks to these movies. And, I often stick up for the Raptors when others put them down. I'm an obsessed Raptor fanatic.
Too bad the dinosaurs used in this movie aren't real Velociraptors. lol There was a small group of people that considered Velociraptor to be classified with Deinonychus or something like that, so the dinosaurs in this movie more resemble Deinonychus than real Velociraptors. Even then, they're still woefully inaccurate to even real Deinonychus.
raptors where pack hunters, and not only that. during that time it was proven they had a bigger brain then people. which meant if they never went extinct people probably would of been wiped out. also to note, they were problem solvers. the door thing is a little cliche, but probably could happen
fun fact the book and movie was meent to be stand alown story's but after the movie was made Hollywood pressured the book wrighter to wright a second book so they could turn it into a movie as well. But in the end hollywood didn't use the second book's story at all XD
My favorite Dino are the Sauropods. (aka the Long-neck dinos.) Brachosauras is the long neck shown in this movie and actually was from the Jurassic era. Roamed North America Titanosaur was the largest. Roamed Argentina area. Also quite like the Utahraptor as well.
I love this movie. Mom and grandma took me to see it 5 times. It will always be a brilliant movie. That said, now being an adult and having read the book, we got short changed on a lot of stuff. The book is so much better imho. I still love this movie, but I had to separate film and book and that was super difficult for me to do in this instance. Not sure why it was so difficult for me to do with this particular movie but I couldn’t even watch the movie for a year without getting annoyed in places lol
13:19 fun fact: in the book it was a stegosaurus and explained the dinosaurus were eating the plant accidently when looking for stones to swallow to help digest food.
"If we had the technology to clone" We've had the technology to clone for 25 years. The first cloned animal was Dolly The Sheep, born in Scotland in 1996. Cloning was however still pure science fiction when Jurassic Park was written. As for whether a dinosaur could ever be cloned, the odds are strongly against it. Dinosaur soft tissues have preserved in exceptional circumstances but are so degraded over millions of years that only tiny fragments of unreadable DNA have been recovered. By analogy it'd be like trying to rebuild the Titanic from a few flakes of rust. There are (more recently) extinct animals which are more likely to have intact DNA that could potentially be cloned. It's quite possible for instance we could see a cloned mammoth within our lifetimes. There's even a nature reserve venture in Russia calling itself "Pleistocene Park" which seeks to do just that. Unlike Jurassic Park which is a really bad idea, Pleistocene Park would actually be a pretty good idea which would help to combat climate change.
Great reaction! Have you thought about tossing up a "called it" counter whenever you're spot on for a prediction? I think Itd be funny for your style of reaction 😂
//Do we know where the meteor crashed that yeeted the dinosaurs// Yes. And actually, it’s very interesting from a human perspective as well. For a long time, no one knew why non-avian dinosaurs went extinct. A father/son team investigated the sediment at the very end of the Cretaceous and analyzed it-lots of iridium. Years later, oil expeditions in the gulf of Mexico would find iridium traces of that age increasing towards a point in the Yucatan. Looking at the geology, you can see concentric rings of rock. That’s the crater; it’s completely filled in. Here’s the interesting bit; all human civilizations are tied to a source of fresh water. This is usually a river, like the Nile in Egypt, but the Yucatan has NO rivers. Instead, the Mayan civilization depended on cenotes, sinkholes filled with freshwater. Looking at a map, the cenotes follow the curvature of the concentric rings, they developed in weak spots caused by the fracturing of rock from the impact. The extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs is responsible for not only the diversification of mammals generally which led to the evolution of humanity, but also specifically the emergence of the Mayan civilization.
Your non-stop commentary KILLED me 😄 You are very funny, but I am glad you stopped talking through the movies as you went along. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I’ll take it 😂 Yeah this was my very first reaction video ever. I didn’t practice, I just went for it. Learned a lot since then but will always like this one.
This is the first movie that I have any memory of ever watching in theaters. I went with my dad and I went and saw the second one with my dad and then when Jurassic world came out in 2015 and when fallen kingdom came out in 2018 both times I took my father this time. For Father's day. I will say it is still my favorite movie of all time however I'm not entirely sure exactly how Jeff goldblum laughed and that's the sound that came out. Edit: if we could get DNA that old, that would be the easiest part. And that's pretty much impossible. So the likely impossible, is the easy part. even if we had DNA there's no guarantee that we could even clone them. But in the future very likely if we had the DNA which we won't. However, you have to remember that this is a movie. A lot of these situations in real life would not even come up. For example, if someone's going to put f****** dinosaurs on an island, they're not going to have the only line of defense be an electric fence. there's going to be a massive moat just like every other zoo. If a dinosaur gets out they're going to get tranquilized immediately. I mean I'm not saying there's nothing that could happen because even zoos have accidents, but it's not going to turn into this massive ordeal like this. This is literally a collection of human error and basically a comedy of errors. You really have to suspend disbelief to believe that anything in this movie could really happen.
The book explains the situation much better. The movie had to cut stuff for time and to make it more of a 'family' movie, but the things that led to the collapse of JP were all very plausible things that happen all the time. Underpaying contractors while constantly demanding more than what they were contracted for; sparing no expense on the flashy things, while ignoring the nitty-gritty basics; being blinded by hubris and the illusion of control... I wish the movie would have stayed true to Hammond's character in the book, because the events would have made a lot more sense.
5:22, I am not an island expert, but if you are leasing an island, then presumably someone owns it. If not you'd just go to the island and stake your claim. Presumably is someone owns an island than most likely (not 100%) it falls under some governmental jurisdiction.
Just a friendly reminder that this is my very first reaction video and after doing these videos once a week for a month and a half now or so, I can safely say that my more recent videos are better 🤣
I love this reaction.
No problem. I just saw your Tremors reaction video and it was fun. New subscriber.
Started out great!
I remember reading a movie review when it came out. (God damn, I'm old...)
The critic did a smart thing; he brought a professional paleontologist with him to the theatre, and then he gave his own opinions plus described the paleontologists reaction. He was excited like a child, jumping in the seat and clapping as soon as there were dinos on the screen. It was a delightful read.
Check out B.D. Wong in "Oz." So good!
Seatbelt scene is great cus the two seatbelts are both latches or as they are commonly called "females" but Dr. Grant made them work together just like how the dinosaurs are all female but still found a way to work and breed
Wow that's big brain. Did you put all of this together or did you read that somewhere? ... Either way SOMEONE's a genius.
@@hemmojito not a genius sadly I read it but the real genius is the person who wrote that scene so subtle but so meaningful
Would have come apart in a crash and it wouldn’t have actually worked; much like every species female female pairs never breed.
OG: "I feel like there's a bad guy. It's HIM!" Me: "Nailed it!"
"Is it bad that I want him to die first?"
Tyrannosaurus Shenron: "YOUR WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED."
LMAO
Shenron XD
"NnoooOOOoo the caption said 'mooing in fear' I hate everything!" ... Subscribed.
That poor cow 😩
Sometime subtitles tell more than the movie, because when I saw this in a theater when it came out, I didn't realize the cow was mooing in fear.
lolol. That was the exact moment that I subscribed as well! :p
the last time I watched it, the subtitles said "anxious mooing" lmao
Fun fact Samuel L Jackson was supposed to get a chase and death scene but the set they were supposed to work on got blown away by a real life hurricane
I think you mean you hope that Hammond “spares no expense” on everybody’s therapy after this movie.
Fun fact: the roof glass was not supposed to break when the Rex hit it trying to get the kids in the car, so those were legit terrified screams.
You mean the animatronic malfunctioned?
@@echoplots8058 yep lots of times because of all the rain water getting into the electronics and it was extremely dangerous for people who had to get into the Rex's mouth to fix things but basically the Rex hit the glass harder than they intended too
@@echoplots8058 multiple people a lost died to that Trex on set
Kids traumatized in-movie and in real life!
The legit screams of the stunt people anyways. One of 'em copped a broken wrist from this malfunction, but it sure did heighten the tension in the final product!
Fun fact. My parents took me to the theater to watch this when I was 5 thinking it was a kids dinosaur movie. I spent the movie hiding and screaming under the chair 😂
Was a innocent mistake
No offense to them but why don't parents look into anything at all? The fact that it was PG-13 should've tipped them off that it wasn't a kids movie. Still not as bad as the parents that took their children to go see Deadpool though. But I'm still mad at the parents that complain about Grand Theft Auto games because it's not appropriate for their 7 year olds to be playing.
I was 11 or 12 when I saw this in the theater the first time but my parents actually went to the movie BEFORE they took us to see how bad it was. They decided it wasn't so bad and so they took us kids. It was a great time even though we were plenty scared at times as well. Hope you weren't scarred for life with this movie though! :P
That's nothing I got taken to watchmen and wanted cause my parents thought they were superhero movies. My eyes got covered for most of the runtime.
I was 9, when I accidentally saw the transformation scene from American werewolf, cause it was shown during a saturday evening show. The moment, when his eyes changed followed me for months.
Lol I was 18 when I saw it in the theater & it was scary then. U poor thing. 😃🤭 We also hadn’t seen ANYTHING like this before it came out so it was shocking to everyone. But to a 5 y/o?! Holy. Velociraptor.😱 Were u scarred for life?
@@MysterClark I mean... it would have been a little harder to look into a trailer back in 1993 unless you saw it in another movie, and even then they didn't give much away. Would've been pretty easy for parents to just go "oh, a dinosaur movie" and think it was fine lol
Your timing is impeccable!

The caption really said "Mooing in fear" I'M DED OMFGGGGG
"I feel like this is a good stand-alone film"
Yes. It is. And that's likely what the series would have worked best as...
Even more so as a standalone book, since the characters who die in the movie are alive in the book and vice versa. But Crichton went and wrote a sequel based on the movie anyway. I knew it was doomed then.
@@spangelicious837 Oh it was just annoying how when you start reading the second book all of a sudden you find out the people that survived the first one that died in the movie just happened to have died between books from completely unrelated trivial things (not to mention how Ian Malcolm basically dies in the first book but turns out to have been only slightly dead by the second one so he can be the main character there after Goldblum's popularity with the character).
@@edward18517 I'll bet. I never read it. I did see the second movie when it first came out on video, but after that, I never bothered with them. I saw Jurassic World while at my brother's house awhile back and found it pretty underwhelming and the ending outright stupid.
@@spangelicious837 To be fair, he was pressured into it by the studio. Like all of his books, JP was meant to be a standalone warning of the hubris of man in a specific situation. It's too bad the studios have turned it into the mess it is today.
@@erinhaury5773 That's a shame that happened.
"This is literally a disaster just waiting to happen" was kind of the moral of the original novel.
The greatness of this movie at the time was largely due to the breakthrough in technology of making dinosaurs look that good on screen. Today it looks typical but back then it was movie magic. Great observation that this should be a stand alone movie. I personally didn’t think the sequels were any good - just more dinosaurs running amuck, eating people, people running away. Maybe the one with Chris Pratt was okay. Loved the Yelp review at the end!
It still is movie magic to me. Most of the cg in this movie is better than a lot of cg today, because they did it well, and when it was needed.
For its time it won an award for visual fx and went on to be the highest grossing film of its time
The one with Chris Pratt is not good. It trick you with a bunch of nostalgia but if you think about how the plot works you realise it only works because the characters make stupid decisions.
spoilers
Case and point, the dino escapes by tricking the humans that it climb the wall and they can't see it on the sensors, so Pratt goes inside the paddock and the women driving back to HQ only then decides to ask to track the dino with the implanted tracker. Like WTF that should been the first she did and Pratt shouldn't of went inside the paddock at all.
If they used even an ounce common sense then that dino wouldn't of escaped.
And don't even get me started about wanting to use dinosaurs for the military.
@@shadowphoenix1696 YESSS!!!! I SAID THE SAME THING!!!! I literally can't watch Jurassic World because that was the worst fuck up and I just can't get past it (the Indominous Rex scene)!!! The characters were idiots 😑😑
The sequels don't measure up to this one, sure, but Jurassic Park is the gold standard... When you compare them to most other dinosaur movies suddenly they're not so bad... 😂
The meteor crashed in Mexico, on the peninsula of Yucatan.
was looking to see if someone put that in comments for her. Recently heard, they believe it slammed into a natural sulfur deposit which made the global effect blocking the sun that much worse.
and in fact it was just confirmed last month that they found the traces that validate that theory.

we have tech to clone, but its impossible to get dna the way they did in this movie, the dna in the mosquitoes from dinos would have completely decayed away by now, no matter how well preserved the mosquito in the amber
I'm both enlightened and saddened by this fact regarding ancient insects in amber.
@@LivingTheLifeOfRiley Yeah, the half-life of DNA is only somewhere around 50k years or so. However, there IS a prehistoric animal that we might be able to clone someday, and there's actually a plan in motion to try and do so for scientific and ecological purposes: the Woolly Mammoth.
@@kevinnorwood8782 The planet's warming up. Let's clone an ice age elephant. 🤦🏻♀️
Frozen mammoth, soon we could see them walking around
i really bet theres already a mammoth embryo (22 mo gestation)or even calf existing right now. we just have to wait till they publish.
"Do we actually know where the meteor crashed into the Earth?"
Actually, yes we do ... it's the largest meteor crater on the Earth's surface ... except that it doesn't look like a crater because it's filled with water - the Gulf of Mexico.
The gulf is FAR to big, the crater is partially in it, it’s on the Yucatán peninsula, named the Chicxulub crater after a town that I think is in it... or at least nearby, and it’s not really visible as it’s mainly eroded away and covered by sediments and rock.
@@nexway9173 I couldn't think of the crater name.

Only 3 years after this movie came out scientists successfully cloned the first mammal - 'Dolly the sheep'.
Yup and now it’s so common Barbra Streisand can clone her dogs and no one bats an eye
I had to read this book freshman year in college and answered my biggest issues with movie.
When the storm hit, the staff did not evacuate the island.
When the power went out, it automatically switched to auxiliary power (which did not energize fences but powered everything else).
Switching the power back on would have been easy-peasy, however, they had not practiced what to do during a power outage and it did not occur anyone to check the power until the auxiliary generators ran out of gas. There was even a panel that showed they were running on auxiliary power.
That’s why they had to travel to the shack to pump up the circuit that switched the power back, no auxiliary power to switch it remotely. And they ran into pockets of trapped staff around the island.
I wish they would have kept those details for the movie because I kept asking why they had such a stupid setup and no backups when they “spared no expense”.
I blame that real life storm.
I love the little bit of foreshadowing with Grant trying to get his seatbelt on during the descent. He has 2 female connectors, but finds a way to make them work.
I do find it funny that so many people watching the rex breakout sequence are like, "...why are you guys just sitting in the car? DO SOMETHING." Like, do what? The rex rolls, pulls apart, and smashes down a Ford Explorer, and the most dangerous thing any of them has is a signal flare.
Okay fair 🤣

"Thanks for the vacation trip, Grandpa!" Though for the first time I connected this to a real "Thanks for the vacation trip!" story. When I was teaching English in Korea, one of my co-workers went to Thailand for her Christmas vacation trip, a gift from her grandmother. She ended up very nearly getting killed in the Boxing Day Tsunami. "Thanks for the trip, Grandma!"
The impact site, known as the Chicxulub crater, is centered on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. The asteroid is thought to have been between 10 and 15 kilometers wide, but the velocity of its collision caused the creation of a much larger crater, 150 kilometers in diameter - the second-largest crater on the planet. Created the Gulf of Mexico.
No, the crater is 180± kilometres across, the Gulf is approximately 1500 kilometres across and was created by the collision of North and South America, the crater is centred in the sea with the peninsula being on the rim, and it is only the third largest crater on Earth, behind Sudbury and Vredeforte. Apart from that, what you said is correct.
My apologies, I got the size of the gulf of Mexico wrong. I may be spelling Vredeforte wrong to, I'm not certain.
@@bedlamkids4845 No!!! what does that impact site have that others don't? WATER!!! ever heard of erosion?

Backtracking through your stuff, I'm a few wines deep here in Australia and you're really fun to watch!
You're too kind!! Hope you're enjoying!
You remember that fiasco with the seatbelts on the helicopter? Grant had two female belt buckles, meaning he couldn't hook them together. But he tied them together to still get strapped down. He found a way. That was the most subtle foreshadowing I've ever seen.
Also, fun fact I didn't notice until literally a month ago: Until Jurassic World, no women were killed or eaten in the franchise.
The broken seatbelt that Dr. Alan Grant is able to to still use is the main key of the film
It was 2 female ends.
Yes we do, the yucatan peninsula in Mexico.
Fun fact. We already possess cloning tech - we already did when this movie came out. Dolly the sheep was successfully cloned in 1996, for one. This sort of science has not been publicly tested on humans because of ethical reasons and more, but it's probably been done already. They also want to use the same tech to save animals from extinction - alternatively, bring back long dead animals like the mammoth and more. Mammoth would be easy, considering how many fully intact mammoths that have been recovered from the frozen north of Russia and elsewhere.
The theme song too this movie is one of the best
YESSSSSSSSSSSS YES YES YES YES!!
“When little Timmy’s body went YEET!” Lol 😂 😂😂😂😂
The CGI animation in this movie still holds up today. Spielberg pulled out all the stops here, mostly using animatronics and CGI sparingly
Some of it does... some it looks woefully dated, especially if you know where and what to look for. lol
I saw some of the anamatronic dinosaurs from this movie at the Pacific Science Center in Seattle. They were huge and very realistic looking.
@@amyjordan195 Took my son out to see the cars from movies
A sheep named, Dolly, was the first successful cloning of a mammal. That happened 3 yrs after the film. You just KNOW some of us were thinking of this movie, and wondering... lol
The T-Rex Paddock scene took a while to film as the animatronic was not built to be under a rain machine. The crew had to dry it off every few minutes as the servos were unable to cope with the added 1000 lbs of water that the skin absorbed. That's why the glass roof of the Explorer broke as the Rex was heavier than it should have been.
There's a lot of differences between the movie and the Michael Crichton novel, namely the survivors and victims
Book: Alan, Ellie, Tim, Lex, Muldoon, and Gennaro live; Hammond, Nedry, Wu, Ian (though the sequel shows he survived), Arnold, and a bunch of workers and scientists die
Movie: Alan, Ellie, Tim, Lex, Hammond, Ian, and most of the workers and scientists live; Gennaro, Nedry, Muldoon, and Arnold die
Also remember this movie was made in ‘93. The pelicans at the end and bird-talk throughout is important. While it was more accepted by academics at the time, this movie is largely responsible for exposing the masses to the idea that dinosaurs were more closely related to birds than to other traditional reptiles. In fact, even scientifically, while the idea had been proposed as early as the 1800s by Huxley and supported by Ostrom in the ‘60s with the discovery of Deinonychus (the inspiration for these Velociraptors in particular) it wasn’t until AFTER this movie when feathered non-avian dinosaur fossils started to be found in China that the theory really became the standard for how we think about birds as dinosaurs.
Even Darwin himself mentioned Huxley's work in his extended edition of Origin of species.
I was a dinosaur freak as a kid, favorite being Ankylosaurus, and this film was a dream when I was 8 and it came out.
Ian yelled at John to get the kids. He wanted to free up a grownup to protect the children and not just lure the dinosaur away from them.
*Alan
"It's making me anxious" Imagine watching it in theaters. I was 12 and had nightmares for decades. And we DO have tech to make clones, but the blood inside the mosquitos are too messed up, like shuffle letters in a book. At this right moment, scientists are working on cloning mammoths.
14:58- the bit where the glass from the car roof caved in was NOT supposed to happen; the T-rex prop just overpushed. The kids' scream of terror are genuine; and who can blame them?!
omg NOOOO LMAO
fun trivia: the scene where Alan ties the two 'female' ends of a seatbelt together is a tie-in to how all the 'female' dinosaurs on the island will 'find a way to work' in terms of breeding.
Foreshadowing at its finest.
OOOOMG those 3 escalating screams at the power switches part had me DEAD lmao...its LITERALLY everyones thoughts at that part.
The kid you see at 4:25 is Whitby Hertford who did Jacob in, "A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child," he also did Walter on, "Full House."

With Nedry’s death there has been speculations that they’re not one, but two of them one that spit venom at him, and the second one snuck into the car.
Old Man: there it is
"The island we shouldn't be going to"
HAHAHAHA PERFECT! SO SUBSCRIBED!
I love, love, love this movie. I've been fascinated by dinosaurs since I was a kid in the 60s, been fascinated by movie special effects and animation since I was a kid, watching Ray Harryhausen stop action animation with my dad, and been a student of computer graphics and animation since it was in its infancy, still confined to 3 university computer science departments in the entire country. When this came out, it was a breakthrough accomplishment in CGI.
But...
When Lex says, "This is Unix", that's not Unix. That was an experimental graphical user interface for Unix she would never have seen. When this came out, I was a Unix programmer, and working in Unix was just typing to a command prompt. (When The Terminator came out, I was programming in 6502 assembly language on the Commodore 64 game console, and recognized 6502 as the Terminator’s native language lol)
The "electrocution" scene always bugged me. First, even if you were thrown clear, it'd kill you. More than 50 volts is sufficient to kill and that was 10,000 volts. Second, you wouldn't be thrown clear. Electrocution causes your muscles to contract, so little Timmy's hands would've clamped onto the fence, holding him there. Dr. Grant shouldn't have touched the fence to test it, and he definitely shouldn't have wrapped his hands around it. Third, they didn't have to climb the fence. They easily could have crawled through. Unless you're really obese, your body can fit through a space not much bigger than your head. A man of science should've known these things.
If you see someone being electrocuted, do not grab hold of them with your hands to pull them away. The electricity will flow through them to you, your hands will clamp onto them, and you'll be locked in a death grip.
The lawyer in the book was a badass. He knocked a raptor out with his fists at one point.
"Let's look on the bright side of things.." (raptor cage is shown to be torn open) 😂 Great commentary timing there
The seatbelt thing at 6:30 is Spielberg foreshadowing the dinosaurs and nature finding a way to allow them to breed with the frog DNA and sex changing.
Grant is trying to mash two female ends of the seatbelts together... so instead ties them in a knot. He finds a way to make it work, just like the dinosaurs do.
16:14 Ian grabbed the flare and tried to emulate what Grant had done... he even screams "Get the kids!"
Dude loves kids like he says earlier, and his main thing is to allow Grant time to get to the kids and save them.
He's literally willing to sacrifice his own life so that Grant can get the kids out of a deadly situation.
Best way to watch this movie is as a satire of large companies.
The fences are shit, Hammond has screwed over the only worker who can access the computers, the car windows and doors don't lock, the guns are shit, the guy in charge of animal control knows nothing about dinosaurs, and yet Hammond constantly barks he spared no expense.
True. All of this is pretty spot on so thank you!

@@OGBReacts yeah, I know there are a lot there. I wasn't going to say Lord of the Rings because you already did.
Sorry, one more, the Neverending Story
One of the biggest Oh Shit moments for me in the book was when Malcolm was proving to the island lab techs that dinosaurs were breeding by having the techs take attendance with the motion sensors. The scientists only expected to find 100 or so and that's what they used for the counting algorithm, but Malcolm told them to increase the algorithm's expected number and it kept getting matched! The number of raptors alone jumped from 7 expected to 36 found!! The mistake from the get-go was the techs' main concern was missing a dinosaur and to only be alerted if the count was lower; they never expected to need an alert if MORE dinosaurs showed up.
This was the first movie to ever give me nightmares as a child. I was 100% convinced that a raptor was going to come around my bedroom corner and eat me 😂
But I was also only 6 when this came out so...lol
7:25 I really love the RiffTrax bit right there:
"Hey, we're over here too!"
"You know, you guys should _really_ look *slightly* to the left more often! You pick up on some neat stuff that way!"
We cloned a sheep in 1995. Maybe you were too young to hear about it.
"If it hadn't been for being in someone else's digestion, I'd be apologizing to you 48 hours later"
I was born in ‘96 😩
Unfortunately, DNA wouldn't survive even inside a mosquito trapped in amber. But since birds are the last living group of dinosaurs, their genetics already allow for long since gone features to keep developing, they got a chicken embryos (if I recall correctly) to continue developing tails, etc. by flipping those genes back on, which normally turn off during development.
The movie that taught a generation (maybe 2) more about DNA than we learned in school 🤣
If the raptor noise scared you, you would have loved the theatrical release. They had just developed CDS digital sound, and at the theater where I saw it they had the volume turned up to 11. When Dennis Nedry opened the shaving cream, the high pitched squeak made everyone jump. The dinosaur roars went right up your nerves. When we left the theater, my balance was all weird. I've never been to another movie where they had the sound up that loud.
A couple of years after this came out, my family and my sisters bf were watching this. When the Rex came out of the trees and grabbed that ostrich like dino, my cat ran across the back of the couch and scared the crap out of the bf.
Oh my goodness 🤣🤣
I still remember the first time I saw this movie, So freakin amazing. I think it still holds up today as one of the great ones. Pretty cool that you chose this one as your first reaction video. Shows that even if you haven't seen it, You still have great taste in movies.. Lol 🙂
The velociraptor in the movie is actually a Utah Raptor. Velociraptor is small like a turkey and Utah raptor is much bigger , the Utah raptor was discovered after the book was written so they went with the Utah raptor for the movie.
Actually, they used the Deinonychus for the Velociraptor's size in the movies. Utahraptor was actually MUCH larger. A minimum of 8ft tall and 20ft long. The Velociraptors in the movie series are smaller than that
[Mooing in fear] OMG that's hysterical! 😂
Great reaction! This might be my favorite movie of all time or its way up there. Why do I enjoy watching people react to movies I’ve already seen before so much?? I have no idea but I’m glad you enjoyed the ride. Now you have to watch it again but this time try to pick up on all the inconsistencies! 😂
"This would absolutely happen if we had the technology to clone" - 1) we do have the technology to clone, eversince Dolly the sheep 2) DNA degrades over time, there's no way viable DNA would be found that old. A few thousand years, maybe, that might be remotely possible - but millions of years? No.
"What is your favorite Dinosaur?" - Thank you for asking! It's Microraptor, a small type of four-winged (flight feathers on both the arms and legs) early paravian dinosaur from what's now China.
We have the power to clone lady remember dolly the sheep? They just cloned an extinct ferret last week.
Uhhh. Pretty sure Dolly the Sheep was born, lived, and died more than a decade before this girl was born.
@@brianstraight9308 so your saying young ppl don't need to know history?
@@206beastman No. Just that by going "remember Dolly the Sheep" sort of suggests it's something she's experienced or should even "remember" but since it happened well before she was born, it isn't other than it being mentioned in some chapter in a science book she may or may not have covered in a science class she took several years ago in high school.
If you're interested, the boy who played Timmy (the boy grandchild of John Hammond) in this movie, stars as the protagonist in the 90s movie Star Kid, which is about an AI robotic suit from an alien planet crashing to the Earth after a barbaric alien species attacked the planet, the suit meets a boy who's been bullied at school.

Southern Mexico/Southern golf of mexico ,,,The impact wasn't straight on, The impact Was from an angle ,,,Causing even more damage and ejected Material... The crater size is 93 miles in diameter , Size of the astroid is between 6 and 15 miles wide...its the 2 nd largest impact on earth the 1st Largest crater on earth is 190 miles in diameter in southern Africa, Which happened over 2 billion years ago....
Wow. Crazy stuff!
It is only the third largest crater on Earth, Sudbury in Canada is bigger.
Considering how many times the characters in this series almost get killed by dinosaurs, you'd think there'd be some kind of dinosaur-attack support group/crisis center.
My favourite? I don't have because I can't choose...these days I like tiny dinosaurs with feathers but my fave used to be the velociraptors
BD Wong also played the same role in the Jurassic World movies.
What is my favorite dinosaur? Well, thanks to *Jurassic Park* (and the sequels that followed), my favorite (and my obsession) is...drumroll, please...the Velociraptor. I love these dinosaurs to the extreme! I always wanted one for a pet, thanks to these movies. And, I often stick up for the Raptors when others put them down. I'm an obsessed Raptor fanatic.
Too bad the dinosaurs used in this movie aren't real Velociraptors. lol There was a small group of people that considered Velociraptor to be classified with Deinonychus or something like that, so the dinosaurs in this movie more resemble Deinonychus than real Velociraptors. Even then, they're still woefully inaccurate to even real Deinonychus.
raptors where pack hunters, and not only that. during that time it was proven they had a bigger brain then people. which meant if they never went extinct people probably would of been wiped out. also to note, they were problem solvers. the door thing is a little cliche, but probably could happen
I love Jurassic Park and have seen a TON of reactions to this. This is officially one of my favorites.
HOORAY! Thanks so much :) this was my frost ever reaction video so it’s definitely messy BUT I do think it’s a good one still. Thanks for watching!
fun fact the book and movie was meent to be stand alown story's but after the movie was made Hollywood pressured the book wrighter to wright a second book so they could turn it into a movie as well.
But in the end hollywood didn't use the second book's story at all XD
After reading the book, I can't look at these characters the same again.
My favorite Dino are the Sauropods. (aka the Long-neck dinos.) Brachosauras is the long neck shown in this movie and actually was from the Jurassic era. Roamed North America
Titanosaur was the largest. Roamed Argentina area.
Also quite like the Utahraptor as well.
@23:30 That's why door knobs are better than lever-handles.
I love this movie. Mom and grandma took me to see it 5 times. It will always be a brilliant movie. That said, now being an adult and having read the book, we got short changed on a lot of stuff. The book is so much better imho. I still love this movie, but I had to separate film and book and that was super difficult for me to do in this instance. Not sure why it was so difficult for me to do with this particular movie but I couldn’t even watch the movie for a year without getting annoyed in places lol
13:19 fun fact: in the book it was a stegosaurus and explained the dinosaurus were eating the plant accidently when looking for stones to swallow to help digest food.
"If we had the technology to clone"
We've had the technology to clone for 25 years. The first cloned animal was Dolly The Sheep, born in Scotland in 1996. Cloning was however still pure science fiction when Jurassic Park was written.
As for whether a dinosaur could ever be cloned, the odds are strongly against it. Dinosaur soft tissues have preserved in exceptional circumstances but are so degraded over millions of years that only tiny fragments of unreadable DNA have been recovered. By analogy it'd be like trying to rebuild the Titanic from a few flakes of rust.
There are (more recently) extinct animals which are more likely to have intact DNA that could potentially be cloned. It's quite possible for instance we could see a cloned mammoth within our lifetimes. There's even a nature reserve venture in Russia calling itself "Pleistocene Park" which seeks to do just that. Unlike
Jurassic Park which is a really bad idea, Pleistocene Park would actually be a pretty good idea which would help to combat climate change.
Great reaction! Have you thought about tossing up a "called it" counter whenever you're spot on for a prediction? I think Itd be funny for your style of reaction 😂
That’d be a pretty great addition!
Hard agree on this!! It was fun watching your predictions come true!!
//Do we know where the meteor crashed that yeeted the dinosaurs//
Yes. And actually, it’s very interesting from a human perspective as well. For a long time, no one knew why non-avian dinosaurs went extinct. A father/son team investigated the sediment at the very end of the Cretaceous and analyzed it-lots of iridium.
Years later, oil expeditions in the gulf of Mexico would find iridium traces of that age increasing towards a point in the Yucatan. Looking at the geology, you can see concentric rings of rock. That’s the crater; it’s completely filled in.
Here’s the interesting bit; all human civilizations are tied to a source of fresh water. This is usually a river, like the Nile in Egypt, but the Yucatan has NO rivers. Instead, the Mayan civilization depended on cenotes, sinkholes filled with freshwater. Looking at a map, the cenotes follow the curvature of the concentric rings, they developed in weak spots caused by the fracturing of rock from the impact.
The extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs is responsible for not only the diversification of mammals generally which led to the evolution of humanity, but also specifically the emergence of the Mayan civilization.
Your non-stop commentary KILLED me 😄 You are very funny, but I am glad you stopped talking through the movies as you went along.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I’ll take it 😂
Yeah this was my very first reaction video ever. I didn’t practice, I just went for it. Learned a lot since then but will always like this one.
Also fun fact, during production of this film they actually had to deal with a full on hurricane in the middle of filming lol
This is the first movie that I have any memory of ever watching in theaters. I went with my dad and I went and saw the second one with my dad and then when Jurassic world came out in 2015 and when fallen kingdom came out in 2018 both times I took my father this time. For Father's day. I will say it is still my favorite movie of all time however I'm not entirely sure exactly how Jeff goldblum laughed and that's the sound that came out.
Edit: if we could get DNA that old, that would be the easiest part. And that's pretty much impossible. So the likely impossible, is the easy part. even if we had DNA there's no guarantee that we could even clone them. But in the future very likely if we had the DNA which we won't. However, you have to remember that this is a movie. A lot of these situations in real life would not even come up. For example, if someone's going to put f****** dinosaurs on an island, they're not going to have the only line of defense be an electric fence. there's going to be a massive moat just like every other zoo. If a dinosaur gets out they're going to get tranquilized immediately. I mean I'm not saying there's nothing that could happen because even zoos have accidents, but it's not going to turn into this massive ordeal like this. This is literally a collection of human error and basically a comedy of errors. You really have to suspend disbelief to believe that anything in this movie could really happen.
The book explains the situation much better. The movie had to cut stuff for time and to make it more of a 'family' movie, but the things that led to the collapse of JP were all very plausible things that happen all the time. Underpaying contractors while constantly demanding more than what they were contracted for; sparing no expense on the flashy things, while ignoring the nitty-gritty basics; being blinded by hubris and the illusion of control... I wish the movie would have stayed true to Hammond's character in the book, because the events would have made a lot more sense.
"Say goodbye to your legs" HA ha ha ha ha!!
5:22, I am not an island expert, but if you are leasing an island, then presumably someone owns it. If not you'd just go to the island and stake your claim. Presumably is someone owns an island than most likely (not 100%) it falls under some governmental jurisdiction.
