It's weird how the original JP movie is actually underrated. People usually talk about the special effects and finally bringing believable dinosaurs to the screen. Which is true, but overlooks what a tremendous job Spielberg does of building suspense, putting out exposition without slowing things down, etc. The half hour or so before we even see a dinosaur is almost as compelling as what comes after.

[@FanboyFlicks]

It was the best part of doing this video for me. I had watched the original dozens of times as a kid, almost wore out the VHS, but I haven’t watched it in a very long time. Going back now and watching it through an analytical lens gave me so much more appreciation for it

[@anikmonette2140]

Problem is, like Star Wars, Aliens, etc. you can't recreate the feeling of novelty the original had, which will more than often ends in "seasonal rot"(when a show or franchise stalls and/or falls apart).

Hey Mark, when I was in elementary school there was a popular kid who told the same joke every day at recess, to see who would laugh. When no one laughed, he promised to stop telling the joke. Guess what happened - by the third day only one kid laughed at the joke. By the end of the week, that same kid was still laughing. I'm convinced that 21st century movie audiences are like that kid who laughed at the same joke everyday. Get ready for, "Jurassic Universe: Dino Trek".

Or Jurassic Knights. Set several decades in the future where mutant dinosaurs are terrorizing the world. So scientists create genetically modified dinos that fly, have scales, breath weapons, and can communicate (with the help of implants) with their riders who are called Dino Knights. They start fighting the mutant dinos but eventually have to fight against a renegade rider and his/ or her evil dino dragon.

That is a GREAT analogy!

[@ebomb1133]

It baffles me how 30-50 dinosaurs were released from the mansion in Fallen Kingdom, to them being EVERYWHERE and interacting with full on ecosystems within 4 years. It's like the writers didn't even care. They just said f*ck it I want dinosaurs to be part of life now. If the protagonists were smart they would inform the US government and the military would take a long weekend to hunt down all the escaped Dino's.

Exactly! The introduction of an entire class of previously extinct animal species into a new environment would be grounds for an ecological catastrophe with the disruption to food chains, habitats and competition between native and invasive species, to say nothing of the horrific consequences of giant carnivorous theropods proliferating into our world. This film should have been themed as an almost dystopian horror movie, but no, it’s a by the numbers ‘action’ film where nothing that happens in the movie matters and the plot is neatly wrapped up with a bow on top - completely ignoring the fact that the world is STILL overwhelmed with dinosaurs at the movie’s end. An utter shambles.

[@The_Curious_Cat]

I think even if they made the dinosaurs evolve into a new intelligent species that attack humans using armor and shooting lasers it would still be more interesting then what they did...

[@zephyr8072]

I think they realised that thr premise established by the last movie was idiotic. No. Some dinosaurs escaping from a compound wouldn’t do shit to the ecosystem or humans because we’d just shoot them all. There’s an entire list of species today that only continue to exist because of our active efforts to preserve them. You really think a bunch of clown dinos would survive our dedicated efforts to exterminate them?

I feel so vindicated at last. Jurassic World, as in the first one, is honestly one of the only movies I'd ever actually say I 'hated'. Like legitimately intensely disliked. It was stupid, moronic, idiotic, and utterly insulting to the intelligence of the audience. It was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, hands down, compared to anything at all. It was the closest I ever came to walking out of the cinema halfway through a film. But they made three of these things, and people kept seeing them, and I started to wonder if I was just crazy. For some reason, everyone else just seemed to act like these films were okay. Like after the first there was no way in hell I was going to waste my money and time on seeing the second, or the third. No chance. But now here we are, and I sit here like 'finally, everybody else caught up'. Because my god, every one of these films has been absolutely abysmal, some of the worst material ever put to film. And other people are saying it.

for Jurassic Park initially they didn't want to use CG for the movie because up until that point it was very apparent how unrealistic it looked and Spielberg didn't want that. Instead they were going to use stop motion but it was clear that stop motion was not capturing the realism either and were looking for other solutions but even then they were still against VFX. A team of two or three guys who believed in it spent days/weeks working after hours to develop the software and studying motion to get it right. But they couldn't convince their seniors to give them a meeting to show their progress. I think they were given a firm warning along the lines of "I don't want you to bring this up again or else". When the producers and directors were taking a tour of the studio the VFX team conveniently left an animated dinosaur model looping on their computer monitor. The filmmakers were floored and the rest is history. The visuals in the original Jurassic Park still hold up incredibly well. Its techniques are still taught in animation and VFX classes.

[@oneopinion6806]

Your talk about Muldoon brings me back to that moment in the theater when he got eaten. I was 13 and had already read the book as a deep lover of all things dinosaur. I thought the violence might be pushing it for myself, but felt having read the book I knew what was coming and so would be fine. This set me up to learn a very important lesson on screen adaptation--there is no rule that says the movie must mirror the source material. SPOILER for a 30 year old book: he survives in the novel. Muldoon getting eaten in the movie scared the crap out of me! And that God-meddling old man Hammond survived! I loved the movie experience but was pissed about both of those changes.

[@davidgantenbein9362]

What drives me nuts about these movies after the original trilogy is the dinosaurs don’t even behave in a way animals would behave. I think it was Fallen Kingdom when the volcano was erupting and they were trying to get to the boat. There was lava pouring down the mountain and lava bombs dropping everywhere. And the T-Rex or Allosaurus or whatever it was decided it was a great time to start hunting for food instead of fleeing imminent death. Then the last movie pretends a bunch of ancient predators roaming the earth wouldn’t result in the near immediate extinction of all modern animals. This franchise is stupid. Also as an animal trainer me and my colleagues laugh our asses off at Owens magic hand scenes. When the first of the new movies came out that hand hold became a massive meme in zoology circles.

I always ask this question: "Who in the hell is watching and enjoying this crap?"

I have one word to explain why this franchise is the way that it is now. Marvel. Everyone wants to be the MCU. So, especially since you have one of the most popular actors from the MCU in your movie as the main star, everything has to be overblown action and Beyond unrealistic. Everyone is a superhero and or a spy. No one is in any real danger. If they had made another Jurassic world movie, you would find out that there is even less danger than you had originally thought because if anyone actually does die, they will invent time travel and just go back and save them. Seriously, I would not be surprised. Why is a series that was more of a horror and action hybrid that was fantastical but still within the realms of believability going so far out there and just becoming completely ridiculous? Marvel. It's sad to see established franchises losing their identity just to stay relevant and to compete with what is popular. The director himself basically summed it all up in his comments about changing the DNA of the franchise. He literally said that this was a property that should have never been a franchise (I totally believe that this can be a franchise. The first three films proved that. They started out pretty decent with the Jurassic world reboot, even though it was nowhere near perfect, but they made some bad creative decisions after that. But I firmly believe that this property can be a decent franchise if the write stories are told. They I had the perfect movie right under their noses with the storyline of dinosaurs roaming free amongst man, but they chose to tell a spy movie about bugs.). And after admitting that the should have never been a franchise, he basically said that he was looking for a way to expand it out and suck as much life out of it as he could, because the story had run out. After Jurassic Park 1 through 3, when they brought this all back and rebooted it, they really could have laid the foundation for something pretty spectacular. The horror action hybrid that we loved from the early 90s all the way through the early 2000s could have come back and all of its glory and then something worthwhile and original. But, they chose to bring it back and just Marvel with dinosaurs. I'm actually surprised that they didn't introduce some sort of plot elements of people mutating or gaining dinosaur-like abilities. And I'm actually surprised that they didn't announce a bunch of character spin-off movies from this or something, just to continue to milk the franchise after this trilogy has ended. This movie made a ton of money. But yeah, Marvel. And Disney... Do you see how all the bad things in the world lead back to Disney?

Parents with their children who probably just want to see some dinosaurs and eat some popcorn. I think that all of the problems that you pointed out mean very little to the modern-day moviegoer. Plot armor is expected and the bad guy dying is predictable. I mean, there are channels whose sole content is explaining movie endings for those who didn't get it. I think that spoon-feeding the audience keeps them from seeing all of the inconsistencies with almost any modern-day film and people don't like to think that much these days. They don't seem to want anything out of the box, just something familiar with a different twist that is easy to digest for their brain.

Bigger budget means bigger audience. If your movie needs to earn 1 billion to be profitable you have to please the biggest audience. They need to make cheaper movies like the original Jurassic Park to make good movies again. I still hope Netflix will become a platform where everybody can make a 1 million dollar movie and make a profit if it is received well.

[@Mr_Porter]

@@Ferdinand208 Fair point. The studios aren't going to change their films to please people who don't like it, especially if it makes a billion dollars. They don't see it as broken so nobody should expect them to fix it.

[@toddpeterson5904]

I have to give you a *hand*. Thank you for taking one for the team Mark! I waited until you did this video to decide if I would see the movie. Glad I didn't. Your review is infinitely more entertaining!

[@toweypat]

Thumbs up! Or, thumb up, I suppose.

[@conductorpineappleicecream8777]

the worst part about the own hand thing is that in the first movie it made sense, he only used it on the raptors of which he raised from infants and trained like that. and even then it didnt work entirely as the raptors at one point turned on him. this last movie is just shit.

[@Dina_tankar_mina_ord]

Just wanted to say that I absolutely love your videos ! Your in-depth analyses and comedic style are always fascinating and funny- I appreciate the effort you put into them. I actually click the like button before I even start watching because I know I'm in for a treat. I was thinking, since you clearly have such a sophisticated knowledge of movies, have you ever considered taking one of your favorite films and doing an even deeper dive into the aspects and details that make it great? I for one would love to see that, and I'm sure many others would too. The longer the better, at least for me! Thank you so much for all the entertainment you provide through your uploads.

[@FanboyFlicks]

I have thought about making videos on my fave movies but I just haven’t found the time yet, hopefully once I get production to a point where I have some free time I’ll start to work on that 😊

[@Dina_tankar_mina_ord]

​@@FanboyFlicks Sooner or later, the algorithm will recognize that you're a talented content creator. I usually share your uploads to help spread the word about your work. Keep it up and I'm sure you'll get there! :) Good Speed!

[@rickyrichreacts9667]

The main problem, besides the boring repetitive sequence is TOO MUCH CGI. I couldn’t make it half way past the first reboot movie. I’ll stick to the original.

[@Cybo-Man]

I rented this movie a while back and I remember absolutely nothing. I could rewatch it and be totally in the dark. Maybe my mind just blanked out.

[@davidgantenbein9362]

You are truly blessed. Every scene I still remember annoys me like hell. The movie isn’t so bad it’s entertaining, it’s just so bad it annoys me.

[@juliancar5700]

10:08 Ok how would a homeless dude be in charge of guarding a black market ? Also why are there people watching Owen and Delocourt's fight instead of escaping ?

[@DiGiTyDarKMaN]

Jurassic Park is still brilliant and beautiful. 2 has a bit of nostalgia for me. Everything else is crap.

[@thekornreeper]

Pretty much

[@DaymanOurSavior]

That Bourne Ultimatum cut was so spot on

[@ravenlord4]

They could rejuvenate the franchise with a live action "Flintstones" movie, explaining that it is actually a post apocalyptic sequel to the JP series.

[@CommonTater100]

that would be great, a gritty flintstones remake

[@MaMastoast]

At this point im all for it.. Make another world movie that transitions into a post apocalyptic flintstones movie

[@PS-it1dm]

This movie was very boring. How does Hollywood make so boring dinosaur films? Is it because dinosaurs are guaranteed money makers so no effort is used in these films?

[@joechappell5829]

I can't tell you how much my heart sank when you said how long ago the Original Jurassic Park came out.. 😢😅

[@classicstorm]

And people think I'm crazy because I don't like watching reboots and sequels...give me three movies, and I'm done with the franchise...

[@TVsMrNeil]

I think modern film sequels are so obsessed with fan service that they often fail to understand their own callbacks. It's not just a phenomenon between the Jurassic Park trilogy and the Jurassic World trilogy, either. I mean, even within the new trilogy, callbacks fall apart. Just look at Owen's hand thing. In the first Jurassic World, you probably assumed that he could do that to the velociraptors because he raised them, but in this film, he's able to do that to all dinosaurs. He knows DSL (Dinosaur Sign Language). On side note, I also roll my eyes now whenever I see road flares in a dinosaur movie.

[@dereklopez9060]

Fan service can only be a problem if it's misused.

[@jessquinn6106]

Any film with Pratt in it is a flop. And that red headed non-actress that plays Clair over and over just makes it worse. It's like watching Titanic three times and just praying that the two lead characters are killed off sooner and sooner.

[@MatthewDavisMedia]

This ain't no April Fools Joke either.

[@AubreyTheKing]

The first movie scared me as a kid and I still love it till this very day! And the first movie still remains as my favorite in the franchise!

[@toupac3195]

When one of your favorite tubers posts randomly.... life is awesome.

[@joshua2814]

Finally watched this almost 2 years later. I don’t get the point of Saddler wanting the DNA from Biosyn. The DNA should be the exact same as the sample she already had.

[@thomoose4647]

I love that they have giant lizards living in snowy climates and eating pine trees. I'm always seeing lizards and gators in the Rocky Mtns.

[@davidgantenbein9362]

And the truly bad thing: they have one dinosaur with feathers in there, so they could have easily used some current year feathered designs for those dinosaurs in the snow. But then again, most dinosaurs don’t behave like the supposed animal at all. They are clearly just plot things that happen to look like dinosaurs. I personally got annoyed by several depictions (i.e. why would a pterosaur attack an airplane bigger than him or even be able to catch up? It’s a long distance glider that is supposed to hunt on the ground, not a fighter jet going mach 3).

[@georgeoldsterd8994]

There's this one little detail in the very first scenes of the film where the wranglers are chasing some dinos in the snowy steppes, and the dinos have steam coming out of their mouths and noses, but not the wranglers or their horses. The official explanation for the steaming dinos was that dinosaurs were apparently warm-blooded, hence why they're steaming AND are able to survive in snowy environments. Ok, maybe, but then, are humans and horses coldblooded? Are they undead? Where's the steam, y'all??

[@koichidignitythief7429]

Actually A lot of Dinosaurs were warm blooded, especially large dinosaurs, so being able to withstand cold environments is the least problematic aspect of this movie.

[@davidgantenbein9362]

@@koichidignitythief7429 The dinosaurs living in cold environments are believed to have had feathers though. What the movie does is more the equivalent of putting an African elephant into the cold environment vs using a wooly mammoth. Yes, mammals can be adapted to cold, doesn’t mean all of them are.

[@Khenfu_Cake]

​​@@davidgantenbein9362 My impression was that these aren't really dinosaurs, but really just man-made frog hybrids whose behavior and appearance were designed to resemble what people expected non-avian dinosaurs to be like. F.ex. having them behave way more monstrous rather than as normal animals. After all: they were created as attractions in an amusement park not even a zoo. I believe that kinda also was the point Michael Crichton made in his books and even he still wrote the dinosaurs fairly closely to what knowledge we had available at the time. Of course that doesn't make the Jurassic World movies less of a giant turd and I just realized I probably put more thought into the dinosaurs than the filmmakers did. I mean; they apparently thought having non-avian dinosaurs live free in nature was a positive environmentalist message and not the absolute ecological disaster it realistically should have been. Even if they were like their prehistoric counterparts they would still be extremely invasive. Not to mention the biodiversity never recovered after the K-T Extinction (and probably won't anytime soon) so there's no way to properly sustain such large animals in the current Earth environments.

[@acidspit14]

What's this DOpe Music at the end called ?

[@gojambe3957]

I just happened to watch the original like 2 days ago, so I'm pretty happy that this review just dropped, and that you compare the two movies thoroughly. Great content as always Mark!

[@dylanwolf]

Fantastic review, Mark, with a whole heap of insightful observations. And still hilarious! One of your best.

[@johnjamele]

They'll make these films until one bombs. And if they follow the lead of the Terminator franchise, they'll keep making them even after they bomb, too.

[@carcassraid]

What's the specific name of that Overwerk song playing through the outro? I love Mark for all of his good work, charisma and humour but sometimes it's the music and editing that really bring a video together 🥰

[@carcassraid]

Back with an update: the outro song is US by Overwerk! One of the newest songs released and I totally missed that somehow, pffft

[@cappadocius9379]

The dinosaur movie about insects.

[@dereklopez9060]

A Jurassic Park movie where the entire plot about Locust while the Dinosaurs were treated as an afterthought is what made me legitimately upset.

[@NatureFactsDesk]

The magic hand skit is quite possibly my favorite Mark insert so far. He was too funny during it.

[@williampowell6067]

I’ll never get that 2.5 hours back. You can’t polish a turd.

[@bigdaddy111058]

"Welcome back TO the show." Love it!

[@theterribleclaw4285]

I get what you mean, even The Lost World and Jurassic Park 3 knew that certain Characters had to die to make the Film interesting, like those Movies or not, which personally I do, they at least knew that. but the Jurassic World trilogy is so stupid to watch because none of the Characters are in any danger because you just know all of them will live and I'm sorry Chris Pratt fans but Owen Grady is the worst Character in all of Jurassic Park. they tried to make him Robert Muldoon 2.0 and it doesn't work Jurassic Park is not a Movie about Super Heroes it's a SCI-FI Horror franchise created by Michael Crichton and boy if he was still alive and saw Dominion he would hate it so much that he boycott it to Hell!

[@theterribleclaw4285]

and don't get me started with those Netflix Cartoons I could write a whole book about how awful those are!

[@rafecolii]

I enjoy how objective this video is whilst keeping a comical spirit about it all. Truly, you are talented.

[@koichidignitythief7429]

13:49 You, no joke, said the exact same thing my old man said at the end when we watched this movie on Peacock "Yeah sure, NOW they're getting along with all the animals and we're just gonna sing Kumbaya together." And he liked Jurassic World 1 over the other sequels mind you. He seemed glad he missed out on Fallen Kingdom after this movie when I had to explain the clone girl to him.

[@Correc7edAuraYT]

There truly is only one Jurassic Park movie, and that is..... Encino Man

[@RobertVistal-jp2cw]

Releasing Dinosaurs into the world is the most stupidest choice ever. What a way to condemned thousands of peoples lives

[@MrPerspective]

Yeah, JP1 was more of a horror film, but the new ones are action films. They should have just made a scarier JP.

[@The--Ghostspider66]

They kinda insulted bringing the old cast back And then butchering the story Plus it didn't make any sense in the first place Also the old cast got barely anything to do in the movie compared to other old ones

[@Gaming2DMX]

I’m really upset about how neglected the mosasaur was for the past two films. It only had two scenes in fallen kingdom and one in dominion.

[@LightofJoshua]

They could have made the mosasaur scenes so epic but nope the best scenes were just tiny tid bits

[@soviet_union1936]

horrormaster13 already said this in a comment but jurrassic franchise is officially fast and furious

[@AnnoyingEdu]

As always, top notch entertainment and a great break down and comparison between the original movie and the newer ones. Thanks Mark!

[@edwardx4979]

Each movie went down $300 million from 1.6 billion to 1.3 billion to 1billion... I still think Jurassic went down hill but totally agree with Mark - if it's profitable, why not?!?

[@poeterritory]

Great review. Never felt a pull to watch the last two movies.

[@SwiftNimblefoot]

The stupid hand-holding thing, did the writers forget that worked for Blue and the raptors because he trained them since hatching??? And I laughed so much how Maisie releasing a few (there were like, maybe 20?) dinosaurs into the wild means they are widespread in the whole world now. In reality the army would have hunted them down in days. They are giant reptiles, not really hard to find, and they don't breed like rabbits, so this concept is just stupid.

[@TheLaLeeee]

Awesome review, these movies just keep getting worse.

[@albrown122]

1:50 How to Train Your Dragon does the same hand gesture to calm down a creature. So, one of those movies is ripping off the other. 5:37 That is the plotline of a Leverage episode. Some scientist was gonna release a famine that killed all crops except the ones made by her seeds.

I live for Mark talking shit about objectively bad movies lol. Love this channel ❤

[@brycestrife5605]

How about JP2 with that tiny girl using "gymnastics" to fight raptors? And she WINS!? Yeah, this dumb crap IS this series. JP 1 is amazing. That's pretty much it for me.

[@emmagrove6491]

I actually paid money to see this film, and sat and watched it, feeling like a complete fool the whole time. Seeing clips of the film is re-traumatizing and a painful reminder of my shame.
