Jurassic Park - Nostalgia Critic

[@BAN3FromNoWhere]

The whole "they do move in herds" line was there because of a huge debate among paleontologists about whether or not dinosaurs had herd behaviours or if they were solitary. To see them in herds would basically be the answer to decades of debate, and hence hit him, a paleontologist, as a major revelation.

[@babyblue_22]

Yeah....I actually didn't even know that was a real debate, but I could still infer that that was why he said that with such emotion. Thought it was kinda obvious, honestly

[@thephenom724]

Thank you. Finally someone said it.

[@JarethTheGoblinKingForever]

As "obvious" as the line was (and don't try to fool me: if you watched this movie as a little kid, you had no idea what it meant), NC is right that out of all the things a human being would say when confronted with live dinosaurs, spouting debate arguments would be a bit unlikely, and out of context just weird. But hey, that was the character who told a disembowelment story calmly to a child in an earlier scene, so maybe the character himself is just emotionally stunted in general.

[@edgarbanuelos6472]

But did they eat their own sh*t?

@@JarethTheGoblinKingForeverFalse 100%. If you studied this and debated it all your life and finally found the answer, it would feel like you just struck gold.

Epic quote, brilliant writing, incredibly believable character.

[@zionhyomeify]

Probably my favorite Nostalgia Critic review, but you seem to be making the same mistakes a lot of people do. 1. When Dr. Grant is talking about how "raptor" means "bird of prey" he was talking about how, even the people who discovered and named them saw the similarities. 2. When he is asking what species of dinosaur he is holding, he knows what it is, you can tell by the look on his face. He's just hoping he's wrong, because he knows how dangerous they would be. The science, in the movie world, supports that. Though, even then, the science isn't correct, in the same way it is in the real world. Everyone knows that the dinosaurs they called Velociraptors are actually more similar to Deinonychus, and that T-Rex didn't have vision based on movement. What people don't seem to know is that Michael Crichton did know that. The T-Rex vision, in the book, was man-made, in an attempt to have some control if anything did happen. Hammond was much more of a dick in the book, but he did acknowledge that things COULD go wrong.

[@IsabelOEM]

Agreed. Also, the Critic claimed the scene where Hammond refuses to kill the dinosaurs goes no where is also inaccurate -- it was there to establish that: 1. Hammond was not as big of a dick as he was in the book, but he still was problematic 2. Hammond STILL trying to maintain control over the situation desperately enough to keep his creations alive, the same creations killing people and endangering his grandchildren. It's not an "action" scene, but it's an important scene establishing Hammond's flawed character, and how his struggle for control caused more harm in the situation.

[@destroyerblackdragon]

I think he was just telling a joke when he said the raptors named themselves cause Grant keeps building up how great they are.

[@dr.k8610]

Yeah, Hammond was a jerk. The main difference was that he hates his grandkids, and then he dies from that, sooooo

And the thing about cloning Dinosaurs, yes there is Dinosaurs who are carnivores. But those in the film are just hybrids of the real life counterpart, which are fuced with Frog DNA to avoid reproducing which is why all the creatures were females. But some frogs are capable to change sex from female to male. And that's because the Jurassic Park's workers and scientist were thintelligent (At least the book got me the info).

Looking back on it, I think the spotlights were a clever way to hide the fact they filmed on a sound stage.

The book does cover his motives much better and you kinda sympathize for him...even though he is a self-serving asshole, you know where he's coming from.

Tbh, I think that's one of the huge weaknesses of the Jurassic park sequels, or at least The Lost World. And that is the books. The Lost World book is pretty great, and builds upon Biosin, which was initially introduced in Jurassic Park. However in the movie, they are completely absent, and instead of Biosin trying to steal eggs for their own dinosaurs and parks, its InGen taking their own dinosaurs to make a new park. Its eh.

[@smithwesson1896]

[@thermonuclearcollider4418]

Actually, it's pretty clear in the movie too: when Nedry is talking to Dodgson at the restaurant, the waiter brings him the bill. Nedry has Dodgson paying for it by saying "Don't be cheap on me. That was Hammond's mistake". And later he's seen arguing with Hammond because he's not paid enough for all the work he has to do. In the novel they make it clear that InGen kind of screwed him over the deal for creating the computer network, forcing him to do extra work for no compensation, but in the movie Hammond is not portrayed as the ruthless and greedy businessman he is in the book.

I liked Jeff's performance in this movie for the most part. Mainly because of the points his character was making during the dinner they didn't eat.

[@zacheryschmidt2611]

Thank you. I was looking for a comment like this

[@thermonuclearcollider4418]

You're right. As for the raptor's size, in the book Crichton (erroneously) says that the Deinonychus is just another Velociraptor species to justify the animals being that big. The issue was brought up again when the movie was about to enter production, but around that same time the first Utahraptor was discovered, so the filmmakers decided that, whatever, Velociraptors could be bigger than a modern turkey.

[@passionoflovers]

I like to believe it's a clever nod to the fact that Hammond & Co don't really know what they're doing. All the comments about "Cretaceous Park wouldn't be as catchy" is nonsense. We would be saying the same vice versa about Jurrasic if they went that way.

We don't know how many chromosomes dinosaurs had, so it would be nigh impossible to get the DNA correct, and 3. The DNA found in preserved mosquitoes is usually incomplete because red blood cells don't have DNA so it must be found in white blood cells and so the DNA is usually incomplete.

I never got peoples issue with this, seriously its not a killswitch, a lysine deficiency would kill them, eventually, its an amino-acid, no creature produces it naturally but yes without it after months and months with looking slightly sickly a few may die from kidney failure -maybe, in truth they would probably live years and certainly long enough to reach the mainland and find it naturally

GullwingYunie I think they say that they die within either 12 or 24 hours without lysine supplements. In the novel though some dinosaurs do escape and you find out at the end that they're eating foods rich in lysine to stay alive.

[@TheBelieveit1]

Unfortunately, the movie almost never touches on it compared to the book and thus it's a plot hole. As we learned with CinemaSins, the books don't matter. When it comes to a film adaptation, while you could argue they are more for fans of the source material, the vast majority of people tend to be introduced to something via film, and thus have to treat it as a blank slate. If the movie doesn't explain something that the book did which could fill up a plot hole or two, that's still a strike against the film. The film hinted at the dinosaurs adapting to be able to breed, having some turn from female to male, but the lycene was not really touched on in the film and thus it can be excused to most viewers that there would be little reason to expect them to not live on, while in the books (and it's touched on in passing in the 2nd film) it's explained why they'd die on Site A but survive on B.

I think the scene with the T-Rex in the mirror was meant to show just how close the Rex was upon them, especially when you consider how “objects in mirror are closer than they appear”. Also, for the Deus Rex Machina, I’m pretty sure no one noticed the Rex’s footsteps because the humans were too busy worrying about the raptors, and the raptors were focusing on the hunt.

Hammond's daughter getting a divorce actually does have a purpose. Assuming she is the mother of the grandkids, that could be why he invited them to the island, to get their minds off of the divorce.

@joli7948, that’s still a flaw of the movie because even if it’s explained well in the book, the movie still leaves that explanation out
