RedLetterMedia Jurassic Park Commentary

[@kaysharp4303]

I still remember watching this in the cinema in 93 and in the scene where Laura Dern and Bob Peck go out to check why Sam Jackson has not turned the power on yet, I heard a little boy ask his dad "Why didn't she take a gun aswell?" There was a brief pause and then the clearly divorced dad replied "Because she is a stupid Woman"

Jurassic Park could have been saved if someone pressed the spacebar and tab keys at the same time on his computer is what the code implies.

[@escalonn]

[@sergiomartinez5946]

Watching them talk about the "continuity errors" in the egg scene, looking more closely I realized that Spielberg couldn't have the shots he needed unless he moved the arm out of the way. In one shot the arm is gripping the egg, but the the next shot shows everyone crowding around looking at the egg from the opposite view. You couldn't show everyone around the egg with a giant robotic arm in the way of the camera which is why they had to move it. So yeah it's a "blatant" continuity error, but it has a purpose. One of the rules of editing is that "continuity doesn't matter" and for the most part it doesn't. Most people wouldn't notice unless they were looking closely. Not bashing the guys here, just pointing it out as a film making factoid :)

[@visionist7]

Good point

[@Conservative4]

I excuse it under a kind of movie story-telling necessity. When characters are wearing masks that cover their face, like space suits, the lights are often on the inside. No one would have lights on the inside of their space suit visor, or they couldn't see anything. But the *point* is that we see the actors faces so we can tell them apart and connect through their facial expressions. The movement of a single robot arm and egg is... nothing. It's even easily excused by an automated movement off camera. Why do people care? In the face of much stupider mistakes of other movies?

[@Ashalmawia]

I just see it as removing the mundanities of life. same way people don't need to use the bathroom unless it's plot-related, we don't need to see the employees move the robot arm out of the way to give a better view. there's a filter on what we're seeing that shows us the interesting bits without showing us the dull parts of everyday life.

i have to correct Jay here, the second film The lOST WORLD actually does treat the dinosaurs as animals even more so Sarah (Juliane Moores character) mentions that her objective is to prove the idea of the t-re being a rogue to be false and instead prove they are nurturing parents and the course of the movie shows the t-rex’s as parents looking out for their child, even the end scene with the male/father rampaging downtown san Francisco, is the fact they lure him back to the ship by using the t-rex infant and the whole theme of the that arc is the Rex is not some brute who abandons their offspring, but is a caring protective family unit the third movie kinds of drops that, but the lost world actually does treat the animals as animals and makes the point that the big carnivore species is actually a loving parental one who takes care of their kids.

7:45 Spielberg movies haven't yet been rebooted or remade, however the "Jurassic World" series has more in common with the previously mentioned Independence Day than any of the original Jurassic movies. The themes are shallow, the style is bland and formulaic, and it suffers from the same over-abundance of quips that plague other modern movies. Jurassic Park had some quips but I don't think the action or plot ever came to a complete stop in order to deliver a joke. That said, we did get the terrible Unix scene.

3D JP was actually really solid. None of it was gimmicky. It just got you that much more immersed, and gave me more of an appreciation for the layering and the framing.

[@EmonWBKstudios]

So, to answer Jay's question about the raptor that snaps Mr. Noodle's neck in JP3, if an animal wants you dead, it will kill you, then keep killing you until it realizes you're dead, 10mins after the fact. But also, we know that the raptors are intelligent so we can deduce that they figured out that snapping someone's neck is a quick way to kill prey without being injured since most animals don't want to get too roughed up in a hunt. I think the scene perfectly demonstrates that the raptors are animals while underlying how intelligent they are. Jp3 is a good film, I will hear no statements contrary to that.

Have they ever remade a Spielberg film? Poltergeist is the only one I can think of.

[@AntiNihilist]

I wonder how many more Jurassic Park movies have to be released before they justify making them into fire breathing dragons and Nessy

[@Tom_Van_Zandt]

Jurassic Park and Terminator 2 are the 2 films I use as examples of how to use CGI minimally and effectively to support and compliment the story/narrative, instead of placing the emphasis on big and loud CG special effects to mask a horribly shallow story.

[@seen921]

I do love that the kid is terrified hearing what a raptor does to you … when you know that in reality, any kid would be thinking how cool that sounds. It is !!!! But yeah. I love this movie.

[@MerickBJG]

I watched this movie so many times in theaters when I was a kid, and is what got me into reading when i saw there was a book

5:10 - I love when Mike makes Rich laugh.

When the Jolt Cola moment happened, and Jay said "Sorry to go off track...on a Jurassic Park commentary" - - *chefs finger kiss* - - I really hope he was alluding to the fact that that's what happens in the movie lol (8m20sec)

[@DrThunder88]

I feel like they kind of missed the point of the Petticoat Lane dialog, but, if they had been on the mark, it would have been a great riff! It also took me a minute to figure out the dinosaur confusion Jay and Rich had about JPIII. Jay was talking about the raptors going Agent 47 on Udeski, and Rich was thinking of the spinosaurus having a Nash Festival in its stomach. In any case the conversation highlighted the number of neck breakings in that movie, which I had never considered. Come to think of it, I think Billy is wearing a neck brace when they find him on the military chopper at the end!

"I enjoyed watching tiny fleas, so I made the biggest fucking creatures ever!" makes sense

[@kinghadbar]

My favorite commentary. Mike is so drunk.

[@5wheels178]

The 'it's just an animal, it doesn't have an arc' argument does fall apart a bit with the T Rex showing up in the nick of time at the end there. Lol why would he be anywhere near the visitor centre when he could be chasing Gallimimus around the park

[@HunterMagunter]

Because it's a movie

I love Carinsores!

[@Fork1]

TBF, I think The Lost World still treats them as animals, but that movie is also directed by Spielberg!

[@WIFFLEWAFFLE88]

Regarding snapping necks, it is something that many predators use to subdue their prey, similar to the use of snake venom. but the main examples I can think of are Cats and some lizards. Cats usually try to bite the back of the neck at least enough to paralyze the prey but some lizards, particularly monitors will try to break its preys neck.

[@MrChickennugget360]

of course the sequence he is referring to has a Raptor using a wounded human for bait then snapping the neck of the character and running away. This shows a level of intelligence way beyond animals.

[@DrMurdercock]

"This is boring" what?!!! I saw this in the theater as a kid and it blew our minds man

[@Colin-kh6kp]

It always bothered me that no one touched the chilean sea bass that the chef prepared for them...

[@TacticusPrime]

The only continuity error that I noticed in the theater was the weird part where the T-rex walks out of the paddock, then the car is pushed into the paddock and there's suddenly a huge cliff....

[@Bubbles99718]

Spielberg said he knows and didn't care. Another smaller one is the door of the trailer in the beginning opens in opposite ways. Outside one way inside another. There is another semi big one, can't remember it rt now

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

​@@Bubbles99718is it the obvious VLC player timeline during the """live""" video call where the sea captain is trying to warn Wayne Knight about the hurricane?

I always assumed that the arm moved off screen and turned away from the table. Isn't the back of the rotating arm on the left of the screen, I Think the arm is below the table and away.

[@superchroma]

Yeah that is what it looks like.

[@ThreadBomb]

I would just assume that some lab worker moved the robot aside.

[@gingersasquatch94]

"This is what they used to call a movie." My sides are in orbit.

[@Peas_and_Carrots]

Another continuity error in the lab scene is at the start the actor playing the scientist is clearly bd Wong. But during the shot they replaced him with Michael wong, and nobody noticed

[@AstroDavey]

Great observation by Jay on hoe this movie marks an end to the big summer blockbuster popcorn movies. As a Gen Xer, I miss that.

[@caribbeanpharoah9269]

You’re wrong Rich, Spinosaurus rules!

[@deadpoolguy283]

I commented this under another video but Jay is a bit wrong: the window was supposed to come down but it wasnt supposed to break in half. People misunderstood Joseph Mazzello when he talked about it.

[@RyanrMCMahon]

The trailer at the beginning where hammon is introduced is a sound stage. Its so much bigger than the outside shot.

[@ryancoulter4797]

I keep waiting for SLJ to reappear in one of the sequels and berate the cast for thinking that was his arm just because he’s black

[@MrSnaztastic]

I mean, it would be kinda badass if he showed up again with only one arm.

So copy exactly what the How It Should Have Ended video did?

@@Rodanguirus lol dang it. They had my idea before I did. I would’ve waited for a sequel to do that though. Lol

[@nignamedmutt7270]

When I was a kid I never understood that part. Like I never realized it was supposed to be an actual arm. I literally always thought it looked so fake it must have been a toy, and was just baffled by that brief moment, then immediately distracted when the raptor starts chasing her around.
