    Something I always noticed was that when we're first introduced to Dr. Wu, hes using the eraser side of a pencil on the paper and clipboard he's holding. In his first shot, Dr. Wu is confronting a mistake he'd made. A small one, just writing something down wrong, but I saw it as foreshadowing that mistakes were being made before the audience first sees Wu and the lab. 🤔🤨

      ​@@joelara3750You're no fun. Movies foreshadow moments like this small and large all the time. Yes it's just acting, but acting includes foreshadowing as well.
      You really think actors aren't capable of doing stuff like this? They may not be perfect but they know what their doing, actors often research their role and the source media as well. They aren't that stupid. Sure some of them aren't exactly intelligent, but most of them have at least a basic understanding of the film they are in.

      uEver realize that Hammond's was kinda deadbeat at absolutely everything? Popping up outta nowhere when no one invited him or completely disappearing & useless at the time where his presence is needed the most! In spite of his age & handicap, he still is motivated by the thrill making babies but out the door fast for a biped w/ a cane.
      However, there were 2 things he wasnt lying about:
      1- It's still a "flee" circus. It's all illusion
      2 - Kids were unfortunately actually were the "target" audience.

      Him tying the two together shows his practical nature and survivorability setting up his character as a capable outdoorsman instead of some science nerd. This shot happens AFTER the geologist has the line telling US that Grant is like HIM. These lines are for a REASON. Also remember Ford was envisioned for this part AKA Indiana Jones who did things like that in the movies for decades.
      Grant survives the dinosaurs in the park while handicapped by 2 kids, 1 of them being injured.

      This was only the second film I saw at the cinema (1st was The Little Mermaid) and I was 6 at the time. I was already dinosaur crazy but I remember before she bought the tickets, she asked a staff member if it was scary and stuff. She came to me and said with a concerned voice, "The man told me that you might find it scary because you see people getting eaten by dinosaurs. Are you sure that you still want to watch it?" Absolutely! I want to see it more now you told me that! I had seen various dinosaur media before, but I remember when we first see the brachiosaurus and (together with every other dinosaur seen in the film) as far as I was concerned, I had just seen real dinosaurs! I'll never forget what that felt like!🤯👌🤧🦕😍💯🤤

    This is my favorite movie of all time. You did an amazing deep dive. The one piece of trivia that I could never forget is when the T-Rex is attacking them in the car, and the top glass falls on them, the screams are real. The T-Rex anamatronic was malfunctioning because of the water. The head fell into the glass, and in uncut scenes you can even hear the entire crew scream because that wasn't supposed to happen. Spielberg loved how it turned out and decided it would make it more real to leave the real screams in.

      Came to the comments to say the exact same thing and predicted someone had beat me to it. Steve’s story is a fascinating and sad one. This misattribution of credit to Dennis Muren, as Erik gives it here, is one of the primary plot points of his documentary and led to his ultimate dismissal from ILM. I’d recommend “Jurassic Punk” to everyone.

    I remember first seeing an action figure of Alan Grant in the store, had no idea where it was from, but was into dinosaurs. Then when the movie finally came out, I must've watched it about 10 times in theaters with my dad, only film I ever saw more than once in theater. Also before the film came out, I remember a news interview and they showed a full scene with the Gallimimus running as their promo clip.
    There's always something new to catch, and even with knowing how it's all done, it doesn't lose it's magic touch. They also did a promo tour back then, I remember the Ft. Worth Science Museum had a mock dinosaur dig for kids, displayed props from the film, dinosaur trivia and educational videos playing. Everything about the film production and design, even the marketing, they spared no expense.
    I was obsessed and had all the toys, and JP Compound, haha. The Lost World was great too. Enjoyed the newer films too, got to meet Director J.A. Bayona (Penny Dreadful) before he worked on Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. Though it's not as great as the others, it has a lot of those classic horror film references.
    A lot of the cautionary commentary on technology can easily apply to AI nowadays (in which robotics is linked) and also showcased in Westworld.

    Isn’t it so impressive that, in making Hammond human, with all the different aspects of him, Spielberg and Attenborough were able to deliver us such an incredibly interesting character, with depth, complexity, parts of which you relate to, parts you don’t - now compare that to the black-and-white “baddie” characters in other movies who you just feel one emotion towards, e.g. disdain, distrust, or hate etc. The brilliance of this movie lies in these layered characters; even the protagonists have dark sides, e.g. Grant disliking children and scaring them with dinosaur fossils.

    This video brought the power of this film rushing back to me. I grew up playing with plastic dinosaur toys. I walked in the footprints of dinosaurs in Glen Rose, Texas. This passion for these fantastical, and yet real, creatures drove me to my career teaching biology. I had heard rumors of Crichton’s new book about bringing them back. I devoured that idea as I read that book. And for a few hours, in my early 20s, I actually saw dinosaurs come alive on the big screen thanks to the magic of this creation. The power is still there, and this movie will always have a special place in my heart.

    One of my University of Utah Geology professors recommended reading the book, before it was turned into a movie. I loved the book and then the movie. One of my professors (at CEU) talked to Spielberg during production about the velociraptors because he was digging up one at the time in central Utah. My professor said he told them the dinosaurs they found were around a specific size (i think it was 6 feet) , but Spielberg said they were going to make them bigger for they movie. A few months after their conversation my professor's team found a velociraptor fossil the size the movie was going to make the movie velociraptors. 😁 Great movie and book.

    I saw JP as a young adult who was totally into VFx and dinos So it was the perfect film for me. But then I went to a presentation by the ILM team at the Palace of Fine Arts in SF discussing how they made J.P. They briefly chronicled the evolution of digital effects with citing The Abyss” as one of their latest works featuring living animation.
    I got to hear the story of the how them convinced the producers/directors to go with digital dinosaurs for most of the big action scenes. I saw the videos of the galli run and of the “light footed” T-Rex, how they learned to give the dino weight and how they received motion capture info “beamed across the bay” from Tippet’s studio in the East Bay. This made me a lifelong fan of the franchise. THANK YOU, Eric for giving this film the love and attention it deserves!

    Dennis Muren didn't do the computer graphics demo that sold it to Speilberg, Steve 'Spaz' Williams rigged and animated it over many months (even though he had been told not to by Muren) and left the animation running on a screen so Kathleen Kennedy would see it when coming in for a meeting. She did and the rest is history. Muren is a genius, but not in this case!

    I like to think Hammond and Co went with "Jurassic Park" even though most of their dinosaurs are from the Cretaceous, simply because they didn't really know what they were doing!
    The same with Nedry encountering the dilophosaurus and not having the slightest idea of how dangerous it actually is

    • @ForeverDegenerate
      @ForeverDegenerate Před rokem

      That... is not a balanced comparison. Dennis Nedry is, in every sense of the term, a "Desk Jockey" and, thus, is never expected to have that type of knowledge. He's a Computer Programmer and, supposedly, a Security Specialist. He is not an Archaeologist or a Biologist. Nor is he John Hammond, the Owner and CEO of Ingen and the man with the vision. As the guy in charge and the guy who came up with the idea in the first place, it's kinda Hammond's job to know the difference between "Jurassic" and "Cretaceous." I could actually see him knowing the difference and choosing "Jurassic" over "Cretaceous" because "Jurassic" is more marketable. I could also see him believing that knowing something like that is beneath his notice and so he didn't care enough to learn. After all, he represents "Big Corpo" aka "Money Above All Else."

    The "clever girl" scene is a reference to Total Recall. The raptor he's aiming at distracts him while the other attacks from the side. In Total Recall his "wife" distracts him with conversation in the apartment while the attack team comes up from the back, he sees them in the camera and says "clever girl".

    Kinda surprised you skipped the part where the TRex comes through the sunroof at Tim and Lex… the robotic Dino slipped and came down through the roof much harder than anyone planned, so prompting real screams of terror from the kids on set. They kept the shot for the film as they’d never be able to replicate the authenticity of their terror.

    When I was a kid, I went on a school trip shortly after I saw Jurassic Park. Our class stayed over-night in a big mansion out in the country somewhere. I got in trouble one night and, as punishment, one of the teachers made me sit alone in the dark dining hall, right by the big kitchen which had those big, industrial silver doors, replete with round windows. To my eyes, they looked exactly like those in the kitchen scene in this movie and I remember desperately asking my teacher to sit me somewhere else, but I couldn’t tell her why because I knew I’d sound stupid.

    When you talk about the sick Triceratops, you forget to mention, that in the book, it's actually a sick Stegasaur (yep, I've misspelled it intentionally). Spielberg switched them, because he felt a Tric would be better, as he loves these tri-horned creatures more.
    Also Muldoon screaming "shoot her!" not being followed by actually shooting her (the Big One) makes sense. Sure Muldoon gave the order, but the leader raptor is an invaluable asset to the park and if they shot her in the begining, she wouldn't later cause chaos in the kitchen, or wherever she is after the park collapsed and the raptors break free. So they naturally only tease her, not shoot her. Just saying. Yes, we don't see much shooting early on, but it makes sense within the story.
    So yea, I, uh, find a way ... outta here myself. Pun totally intended.

    This is honestly one of the best movies ever made.
    What I love so much about the movies during this time period is that they didn't just rely 100% on CGI. It was a blend of CGI and practical effects and other techniques which when cut back and forth sell the shots.
    Today so many films just use CGI and I don't like it. Instead you mix and match CGI with other practical shots so that the viewers can't really tell the difference between the two.

    2:16 Science teacher here. Dinosaurs did not evolve into birds, birds just are one kind of dinosar. The first birds, of the clade Ornithurae, originated in the early Cretaceous, and had diversified into several different families of birds before the K-T extinction event that saw the end of all of the non-avian dinosaurs, several of which survived the K-T event independently. Like velociraptor, deinonychus (the dinosars in Jurassic Park that were called velociraptors because the name just sounds cooler than deinonycus), and T-Rex, birds are theropod dinosaurs. Birds didn't evolve from dinosaurs, they just are dinosaurs. It'd be like if every mammal on earth went extinct except for the bats. Bats didn't "evolve from mammals", bats are mammals, as different as they are from other mammals like elephats, whales, and us.

    I will never get over my mistake as a kid missing this movie in the theaters because when I asked my parents to take me to see this movie, they said I was old enough to go alone and we lived just a walking distance to our local movie theater, but I was just a kid and I wasn't feeling up to be independent. I still relied on my parents to take me. Even my mom gave me money but I declined to go. And that I will never forgive myself. Jurassic Park is one of those FOMO movies that you had to see for the first time on the big screen with those first impact impressions. You don't get the same feeling when you rent it for the first time and watch it on VHS. I didn't rent a copy from Blockbuster, I bought my copy from a video retail store after its release on October 4th, 1994
