Honestly, the relationship between Lex and Timmy is one of the most, if not THE most realistic sibling relationship I have seen in TV and cinema, the banter, the insults, even in a serious and extremely scary sutuation, but when it really comes down to it they would do anything to protect eachother, instead of just being lovey-dovey all the time. And, in the end, you can really tell how much they love and care for eachother, and how much they mean to eachother.

The man was legendary as the loveable grandpa. Muldoon, the game warden, was the one who literally saved everyone because he spends every day with these animals and knows how they think.

30:35 - "The dinosaur looks so real though." That's because it _IS_ real. Most of that sequence relied upon full-scale animatronics, not CGI. If part of any dinosaur in this movie is off-camera, it's animatronics. Rexy is a full-scale hydraulic robot puppet with a leg and everything from the chest up. And the rain played havoc with the technology.

[@vaclav4435]

[@Sableagle]

I watched all of _Walking With Dinosaurs,_ and then _The Making Of Walking With Dinosaurs._ They used a lot of puppets and animatronics, and some of the effects were real video of a log being thrown into a river, with the jumping dinosaur spliced in over the log. The last part of the "making of" was about how the got them to walk properly, with all the calculations about joint stresses and muscle loads and how to move that shape most efficiently (personally, I still suspect they just motion-captured a pheasant), and the camera pulled back from the computer screen with the colour-coded frame and muscles on it to the fully CGI dinosaur watching itself be animated. It then kicked the animator's coffee cup off the desk, ran across the keyboard and hit among the stuff on the shelf.

@@shawnpatrick1877 Phil Tippett was the animation supervisor for Jurassic Park and had previously pioneered the art of "Go-motion" which is where computers control the movement of puppet models filmed so that they move during the film exposure (producing realistic motion blur, for example.) When he found out that Spielberg had decided on using CGI animation Tippet thought that his profession had become extinct. Instead, he devised a genius technique for _reversing_ the go-motion process. Instead of using computers to control models, he used the physical jointed models as input devices to program the CGI characters. This way the computer animations could be "posed" virtually by experienced puppet animators manipulating real physical jointed puppets.

[@joegresser1095]

There’s actually a theory going around the JP community recently saying that Muldoon (the hunter guy) may have actually survived his run in with the raptors, the evidence is VERY much speculation. What we know is that Muldoon is similar to that of Chris Pratt’s character in Jurassic world, Owen Grady, and that they both share the same job as Raptor wrangler. Both characters raised the raptors from hatchlings to full grown, and the belief is that it jumped on him playfully and that he just got back up and walked off somewhere. As unlikely as this theory sounds (and trust me, this sound like absolute bull when I first read it), the new Jurassic park horror game “Jurassic Park: Survival” leads us to believe that a female character is left behind on the island is the last one on the island, but finds help from someone, and the speculation is Muldoon, because who else could help someone survive Jurassic Park. AGAIN, THIS IS A THEORY AND PURE SPECULATION, just thought I’d share and get those cogs in your head turning. That is all. - Some Idiot with too much time

[@FreshMetal80]

Pretty sure there's a deleted scene in The Lost World with Hammond's nephew speaking to the boardroom about InGen's financial troubles, in which he name drops Muldoon when talking about paying the multiple wrong death suits. It was originally a deleted scene which would imply that it's not canon, but it's also regularly added back to the movie whenever I catch it on TV, so it's anyone's guess.

[@Trahzy]

Except the JW films are basically Marvel and Fast and Furious films but with dinosaurs. The raptors are cute little pets in those films. And Owen is some kind of super human and Raptor whisperer, apparently. Muldoon was simply the Raptor keeper, he didn't "raise them". Just kept them fed and contained. He got eaten. I try to forget Jurassic World even exists honestly, waked out of the theater during the first one while wearing my Jurassic Park shirt.

[@dstreetz91]

I don't know why they theorize that. In the book Muldoon survives, in the movie he is clearly dead because a human wasn't competing with velociraptor claws and teeth. It would also make zero sense because if Muldoon survived they'd still be hunting him instead of going after the other characters I mean there was a raptor just hanging out watching the big one rip Muldoon to shreds.

Hammond's biggest problem honestly was just ignoring basic park safety features that already exist in zoos and parks today. Sure, some of the dinos probably shouldn't have been bred (particularly so early before learning more about dinos and processes) but still. Park design was terrible. This is ofc well trodden on the interwebs and the movie just doesn't work if they did. Also, its not really the lesson we're supposed to take from the story lol

[@AdeptusCaeiusIII]

It's funny that the Park games made recently actually take jabs at that, too. 'Careful you don't lose TOO MANY park-goers!'

[@amypetty5013]

The issue is not the Park's design. It's Hammond's hubris in believing that nature can be controlled to this extent. And part of the problem lies in the very idea that it is even possible to learn sufficient knowledge about actual living creatures' behavior from their bones. One of the details that the movie, and subsequent sequels, don't really give enough attention to, is the fact that none of these animals are actual dinosaurs. The need to fill in "gaps" in their DNA with that of other creatures - frogs, no less - makes them chimeras - Frankenmonsters - who are categorically NOT at all the dinosaurs they ostensibly represent. The "facts" which you have to ignore because without it the movie doesn't work, isn't the Park's design. It's the actual fact that even if we did clone _real_ dinosaurs, they would not survive in the present-day climate. They literally wouldn't be able to breathe because oxygen today is significantly lower than it was during the Cretaceous period.

Eye size has nothing to do with it. Earlier Paleo data believed that the shape of the skull would mean part of the Occipital cortex would be under-developed based on a FROG brain. Now, we all know that frogs are not T-Rexes, and further studies were done. It is believed that they would have not only better sight than most birds nowadays, but would likely be quite intelligent and have fairly strong problem-solving skills. Not only was the original hypothesis wrong, but the theory has flipped almost 180 degrees. The Rex was the 'King' for a reason. Those bad boys likely were so hard to escape from that the only option would be to have spiny coverings on your body and a stout frame to knock them off you, like certain dinosaurs did.

Fun Dinosaur facts! The Dinosaurs seen in this move, by order of appearance are: Brachiosaurus (Jurassic, Macronarian Sauropod from North America). Parasaurolophus (Seen but not mentioned, crested Hadrosaur from Cretaceous North America, this is the only dinosaur which we know what it sounded like). Triceratops (a Ceretopsian dinosaur from late Cretaceous North America). Tyrannosaurus rex (The largest Theropod Dinosaur by body mass, needs no introduction) Dilophosaurus (an early Jurassic Therepod, the real life animal did not have a frill and was MUCH larger, reaching 20 feet in length and being as tall as the average person) Gallimimus (an ornitomomid from late Cretaceous Mongolia. This dinosaur, a herbivore is more closely related to Velociraptor than to other herbivores seen in the move) Velociraptor (a Dromaeosaur Theropod from Late Cretaceous Mongolia. The dinosaur show in the movie is actually probaby nor Velociraptor, which were only about 3 feet tall at the largest. Rather it is probaby Deinonychus, a larger Dromeaosaur from North America). Second, you are, fortunatly wrong. Dinosaurs still very much exist in our world today. You can even keep them as pets. Birds are Maniraptoran Thereopods in the Paraves Family, and are a Sister Taxon to Dromaeosaurs. Since you cannot evolve out of a clade, Birds never stopped being Dinosaurs. Velociraptors are more closely related to a street Pigeon than to any of the other Dinosaurs in this move. If this is hard to believe I urge you to look into Cassowaries. With the exception of the Dilophosaurus and Velociraptor, the depictions of the dinosaurs in this movie are very, very good, even today. The few issues are mostly with the Tyrannosaurus and the Paralophosaurus. Tyrannosaurus would have been bulkier than depicted, and would hold its hands inwards, not downwards. Parasaurolophus would have probaby walked primarily on 4 legs, running on 2 legs. These are minor issues however. Richard Attenborough was David Attenborough's brother. Not a Dinosaur fact, but definitly relevent. David Attenborough narrates an utterly fantastic documentary series about late Cretaceous Dinosaurs called Prehistoric Planet. Would be a bit of a change of pace, but would also be a great reaction. You should definitly watch the other 5 movies in the series. I don't think they every really capture the magic of the first one but its hard to make something about Dinosaurs not entertaining. Frontier Entertainment makes a Jurassic Park park builder game called Jurassic World Evolution 2. You dont need to play the first game, but its definitly worth checking out.

[@Masterfighterx]

Parasaurolophus. How do we know what it sounded like?

[@danielstephens1185]

You mostly have it. Just a slight addition: Crighton's velociraptors *are* deinonychus. He consulted with a paleontologist friend for the book, then before it published, he apologized and said he changed the name creative purposes. Ironically, however, The Big One/Clever Girl, is actually *not* a deino, but a much larger dromaesaurid. The creative team wanted her bigger, bulkier, more powerful looking. Here's why "ironically." Around the same time they were making her, a raptor with pretty much her same design and size was discovered in Utah. They unknowingly created Utahraptor at the same time its fossils were found.

Richard Attenborough was David Attenborough's older brother. He had a long career as an actor, producer, and director, receiving many awards, including two Academy awards as producer and director of his epic film "Gandi," which won Best Picture in 1982, and won a total of 8 Academy Awards out of 11 nominations. His resume outside of acting and directing was extensive, too, including serving ten years as chancellor of the University of Sussex, many years as a director of the Chelsea Football club, and thirty-three years as President of the Muscular Dystrophy campaign. He was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1967 (making him Sir Richard), a Knight Bachelor in 1976, and in 1993, he was created a life peer as Baron Attenborough. If you pay attention, it's quite easy to hear the similarity in Richard and David's voices. As for having another of Michael Crichton's books... He wrote twenty-six novels, which sold more than 200 million copies, and thirteen of which were made into films (plus five more based on his Jurassic Park work). He also directed a handful of films, and created the long running TV series, "ER." through which George Clooney became famous. He introduced computer graphics to film, writing and directing Westworld (1973), and it was Crichton who encouraged Spielberg to use computer graphics here in Jurassic Park. This movie changed the way average people envisioned dinosaurs.

Back then, the name Velociraptor was used interchangeably with Deinonychus as it was thought they were the same species spread between the US (where big raptors like Deinonychus lived) and Mongolia (where Velociraptor lived).
