The thing that amazes me is how well the special effects hold up 30 years later. A lot of movies that have come since have surprisingly bad special effects, either because they were rushed or they were used too much. Jurassic Park followed the rule that less is more.

[@TheKyrix82]

No, Jurassic Park followed the rule of 'We're literally inventing this technology while we're filming, and sometimes we can't do something yet'

[@j.f.fisher5318]

There was a lot of practical effects through animatronics.

[@thorpizzle]

@@j.f.fisher5318 Yes, I know. They were also used in conjunction with the computer effects, and they were blended seamlessly.

[@Unethical.Dodgson]

"A lot of movies that have come since have surprisingly bad special effects" It's not necessarily about them being rushed or used too much but in HOW they are used. The T-Rex scene in this movie uses a lot of CGI but it's used to great effect with the atmosphere. It covers up a lot of the imperfections. People actually ignore how much CGI is used in movies from the 90s when making this argument about how movies now use a lot of CGI. It's like arguing that an artist used too much paint. Sometimes you should use practical effects because you can more seamlessly integrate them into a static shot with actors. But practical effects are also incredibly expensive and time consuming. CGI can be used incredibly well with the help of great artists and directors. CGI isn't the enemy. It's just another paint.

[@eschiedler]

I watched this on it's opening run in theaters in 1993. It is the kind of movie with the music and the action that truly rewards the theater experience.

A theater near me upgraded its sound system in anticipation for this movie’s release. I think it was DTS(?). I ended up seeing it 4 times. One time in a regular Theater and the sound or lack of was noticeable. The theater shook with the introduction of the T-Rex. I also saw this while on acid all 4 times. The jump scare scene with the raptor nearly gave me a heart attack each time.

[@ShadowyFox_86]

Your reaction to the first adult dinosaur they get to touch is what I remember from when this movie was in theaters. So many folks had an "awww" reaction in that moment. I also feel like there's huge respect when the guy says "clever girl." You can tell he respected being outsmarted by this dino.

[@RealBelisariusCawl]

Yeah, yeah, ooh, ahh, that’s how it always starts. Then later there’s the running and the screaming…

[@Unethical.Dodgson]

A real shame that they killed Muldoon in the movie. He was a lot more important in the book. Having him be killed by a Raptor in this manner made less sense since he knew them best. I feel like they could have inserted another character into that moment to sell it better without cheapening his character. This is just a small nitpick in what is otherwise a fantastic scene, though. (Heck. In the book, he worked most closely with Gennaro - whom they also killed off early in the movie.)

That very first dinosaur reveal is still so incredible. I was 4 years old when this came out and brachiosaurus has been my favorite dinosaur ever since.

[@StarkRG]

Michael Chriton wrote this as a horror, and to an extent so is the movie, but Spielberg and John Williams added this whole layer of wonder and joy to it. Even at the end despite everything, there's still a sense of awe and curiosity.. I think this might be my favourite score of any movie I have ever seen. After hearing bits of it in this reaction I had to stop and go listen to a few selections. Parts of it practically bring me to tears. The way Williams, in several moments throughout the movie, builds up the excitement and then calms things down in an instant, as if reminding us to be careful of the danger posed, but then moving back to awe and excitement, ignoring its own warning. I would _love_ to see parts of this score performed by a live orchestra, particularly "Journey To The Island" Though the other two Jurassic Park movies are generally considered inferior to the first, I think they're still well worth watching. The Jurassic World movies, on the other hand, I honestly couldn't care less about. It's not that they were awful, it's just that they were really nothing special.

[@gailseatonhumbert]

Michael Crichton wrote science fiction not horror.

[@dannykent6190]

Definitely not horror. I've read the book a few times. Really no elements of horror at all except the obvious truth that being eaten by dinosaurs is unpleasant.

@@gailseatonhumbert Just because he wrote science fiction doesn't mean it can't be horror. It was very much written with a horror tone to it because it, like many of the books he wrote under his own name, was a cautionary tale about the dangers of science when not treated right.

[@BlahBlahWoofWoof12]

You should definitely watch the other movies. Fun fact: During the car scene, because of all the rain, the water would constantly get inside the animatronic T-Rex head & make it stutter & get heavier so when it breaks through the sunroof it went down further than it was supposed to & snapped the glass in half & chipped a tooth (which you can see if you watch that scene again) so the screams from the kids are actual fear & terror

[@joost1120]

I have no doubt a T-Rex animatronic coming down through a sunroof with only plexiglass in between you is scaring, but the screams aren't actual fear. They did multiple takes of it. They only realized it went down too far after shooting the scene, when they noticed the plexiglass and the missing tooth. The child actors were just doing their job, acting.

[@ry_jayy]

I see this everywhere and it's simply not true. They're not screaming in actual fear, I don't understand why people are so insistent on spreading this false information just so they can have a highly upvoted "fun fact" comment.

I saw it back in 1993, but I also got to see it as a 25 anniversary celebratory showing at one of the theaters in my area. Kind of surreal to relive an experience as an adult that you had as a kid and it was just an awesome as I remember it being 🙂

[@Polymathically]

I was lucky enough to watch this in the theaters on opening night as a kid. I wish I could fully articulate just how amazing it was, seeing dinosaurs on the screen and how it was such huge leap forward in special effects. The T-Rex escape scene - especially the sheer _sound_ of the roars pinning me to my seat - will forever be burned into my memory. 1993 doesn't feel that long ago... One other little thing I enjoyed was the full music theme which plays during the credits. It starts with the epic main theme, then gives way to a more soothing piano rendition. But in the last 30 seconds, the piano fades away, and it's replaced with somber horns and shrill violins. It underscores that once the adventure and heartfelt moments are over, the dinosaurs are still out there, with sinister and terrifying implications of what's to come. The novel is great as well; there are plenty of moments that never made it to the screen (for the sake of pacing and gory visuals), and there are differences with regards to some of the characters. As for the sequels... Well, they're pretty hit or miss, and none of them capture the magic of this first one. The Lost World is okay as long as you focus on the spectacle instead of the writing. Jurassic World is basically both a sequel and a soft reboot of Jurassic Park, but for modern audiences.

[@Soundtracks92]

John Williams is my favorite composer of all time! He’s written so many of the most iconic movie theme songs and scores! And the Jurassic Park theme has to be in the top 5 ❤ whenever I think of dinosaurs, this music always pops up!

[@Skyfire_The_Goth]

In the book this movie is based on, in the scene where the T-Rex pushed the car over the wall, it confuses people where that drop came from, in the book the Rex didn't just spin the car around, she pushed it down the road a bit as well to where the road was built over a ravine, as to how Elle and Muldoon got down there so fast there was an employee access stairway close by.

Why would ppl wonder about the drop though? If you have been to a zoo you know about that drop so they cant just climb out. The Trex simply steps over that drop.

Jurassic Park is an incredible example of a movie keeping the core essence of the source material intact. Even though there are differences between the two, even big ones, it still feels faithful.

The novel is amazing. It goes much more in details, explaining things better (obviously a lot of stuff had to be cut off to fit it in movie). There is additional characters, some characters have bigger role (like Henry Wu's character, who appears only one scene in movie) and some characters are somewhat different than in movie (better or worse, you decide). I actually read novel first, back in 1992, before movie even came out when I was 11. I thought it was the most amazing book ever. Late 80s / early 90s was exciting time, all these new technologies were becoming commonplace: computers, biotechnology, environmental sciences, chaos theory etc. and this book was like an amalgamation of all exciting stuff we saw in TV and read magazines, books etc.

[@jjkk1630]

The original novel is extremely good; the sequel novel "The Lost World" ended up being written as a sequel to the film rather than the original novel which led to some inconsistencies as the fates of Ian Malcolm and Donald Gennaro were considerably different between each version. But the original was so stacked that some other parts of it ended up being used for the sequel films, even with Lost World which only vaguely adapted some parts of the second novel when they filmed it.

I love how well this film holds up 30 years later! I saw it in the theatre as a kid, and it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen. Even now, the choices they made to use a lot of practical, physical animatronics and puppets was the right call. The CG isn't bad, even by today's standards, and it was groundbreaking at the time, certainly, but the thing that really lets this movie stand the test of time is, (imo) that they used the CG gently. It wasn't used to carry anything important, just as a background tool. All the close shots with dinosaurs, like the raptors in the kitchen, are almost entirely physical puppetry, people in costumes, or animatronics. You can't pick apart the graphics of a sweaty actor in rubber dinosaur legs :p This is definitely the "best" film of the franchise, but honestly the rest of them are fun too, and I've watched the whole lot of them more than once. Just go into the others knowing that, after this one, they essentially become "creature feature"/disaster films, (think King Kong etc) and they follow that kind of formula, and they're good excuses for popcorn. They have dinosaurs, what's not to love :)

The Crichton novels are great. The 2nd one is even better. Wish I could say the same for the 2nd movie. The movies are a lot different than the books, so if they every try to reboot it one day, they could stay closer to the source material. It was a lot harder to make Jurassic Park in 1993.

I LOVE this movie!!! 😊 Definitely one of my top favorite Steven Spielberg directed films. And with such a great cast. I hope that you end up watching all whole Jurassic Park/World franchise. Total of six movies. All are great! I don't remember if Steven Spielberg directed the other two Jurassic Park movies, or if it was just this one. I highly recommend looking up behind the scenes footage from this movie. I love seeing clips of all of the practical effects and dinosaur animatronics used in this movie. I've read the book twice. One the main differences between the book and movie is that.....SPOILER.....Jeff Goldblum's character dies from his injuries in the book. So glad that doesn't happen in the movie. Malcolm is one of my favorite characters. Looking forward to your next reaction. 😊

One of my absolute favorite movies. Back in the day I was too little to watch it in cinema which broke my heart. I watched it a year later on VHS then. It blew my mind and turned me into one if the dinosaur kids of the 90s. 🥰 Certain scenes and the soundtrack are burned into my memory for good and I will always get goosebumps watching them. About the sequels: you can definately watch them, they are good (part 2) and okay (part 3). Not great tho either. And then there is Jurassic World. I hate those movies with all my heart, especially the first one. It just does everything wrong and is a disgrace to the first Jurassic Park which it always quotes. But in a shitty modern one-liner-jokes ugly CGI everywhere kind of way. But I guess you should find about them as well. 😊 i am just so happy that you liked this one a lot 😊

[@VerowakReacts]

A shame you weren't able to watch it in theatres when you were younger :( But you still were able to watch it on VHS though, and it seems like a movie that stays with you forever.

[@VerowakReacts]

@@dannykent6190 Movies are subjective, so people can't be wrong about their own opinions lol 😁

[@slchance8839]

its my opinion that you'll enjoy reading the book. They flesh out the characters and themes even more. In fact, every chapter beginning has a chaos (math) theory diagram (fractal) or brief mathematical explanation that's relevant to the Park. As a math guy, I loved it. Also, you find out that Hammond is a billionaire who spent YEARS gathering investors, to whom he was directly responsible. He sold them a dream for money and if he doesnt produce, they'll want their money back. Moreover, the impact of this movie was SO big, that because of your age, you wont even know a "before and after" of our world. For example: 1.)Until Jurassic Park, most textbook and people believed dinosaurs were DUMB and they DRAGGED their tail. IF you can find a pre-1980s textbook or dinosaur book, you'll see the dinosaurs ALL drag their tail 2.)Until Jurassic Park, most people and experts thought dinosaurs were slow 3.)and most people didnt even CONSIDER dinosaurs evolved into bird 4.)except for paleontologist Dr. Horner, who they base the character of Dr. Grant on. 5.)the term "raptor" was associated with birds and mainly as a CLASSIFICATION used mainly by bird experts and most people barely knew what the word meant 6.)Thanks to making the word "raptor" infamous we have....the RAPTORS basketball team 7.)the RAPTOR Fighter jet AS 30 years has past, most people either forget or will never know the tremendous impact of this movie on basketball, the air force, etc... A SIMILAR INFLUENCE happened with The Godfather in the 1970s. 1.)Comedian Rodney Dangerfield's catch phrase is "I dont get no respect." It's not HIS! He started saying that the month The Godfather came out, peopled loved it. People associated it with The Godfather, but then, as decades passed, we forget it wasnt Rodney, but THE MOVIE that gave us the term 2.)Mafia FAMILY. Until GF, most mafia movies were about ORGANIZED CRIME: just groups of people working together. BUT...the GF was the first movie to say it's about FAMILY. Ever since then, every Mafia movie about families, patriarchs, etc...are directly related to the GF. Think Fast and Furious is about family and committing crimes? Where'd they get the idea? The Godfather. 3.)Mafia terms like consiglierre, caporegimes, and button man were not common knowledge until the GF came out The truth is that it was over half a century ago, so most people entirely forget the impact of the Godfather and just think "that's the way it is. " VERY similar to the impact of Jurassic Park. That's just the way it is. No....not always,....just after this movie.

One of my favorite movies. The book is slightly different but fantastic as well. One of my favorite books. Watching this and Timeline in theaters kicked off my Michael Crichton book binge. So many of his books have been made into great movies The Andomeda Strain, The Great Train Robbery, Congo, Sphere, Prey. His books are very technical, but so enjoyable. I know the movie did not explain the Trike's illness, but it captured everything that scene needed to convey anyway. Alan's childlike joy, separating Ellie from the group, Hammond cutting corners by leaving the West Indian lilac because animals won't eat something that is bad for them (he technically was right, but what the scene got across about Hammond is still true). So good. I don't think you understood the lysene contingency. It takes time (days or weeks, i don't remember) and Hammond wanted to choose the faster option of resting the power because he was worried about the kids. But you were right that it also showed something about his character. Can't wait to watch more of your journey. If you do read the book, i would love to hear your thoughts on one of your videos. I loved the way the movie interprets the book scenes into totally different scenarios like Lexies's book scene in the tree is Tim and Allen's tree scene in the movie and the opening scene of the book is the opening of the movie. All wonderful scenes and all totally different.

[@mahliz]

I remember watching this movie as a kid. My broother had set up the sub woofer behind the couch so when the T-rex made the thudding from waking the couch actualy vibrated. That was a feeing for sure. Also worst way ever to check if there is electricity in a fence is to do what he did, when your muscle have electricity in them they contract so the hand will be closed and you can't open it. You want to touch the fence with the back of one hand. Still best not to ofc.
