Some loose ends from the movie are explained in the book that inspired the movie. In the book, it was a Stegasaurus that got sick every six weeks, not the Triceratops, but in any case, it was sick because much like birds, the Stegasaurus (and Triceratops) needed to swallow small stones to help digest plant matter. As it picked up the stones, it accidentally swallowed the Lilac berries too. The Lilac berry seeds remained with the stones, even when they were regurgitated every six weeks, which explains why there were no lilac seeds in the Dinosaur droppings. Also, something interesting from the books that wasn't in the movie was that, most of the dinosaurs were sick or ailing from something. The T-rex had skin issues due to an allergy to modern plants, the Triceratops was having difficulty with labored breathing due to our modern world having less oxygen in the air than what the dinosaurs were evolved to breathe. The book really explained a lot of little issues with running a theme park full of pre-historic animals, and the park operator's need to learn HOW to take care of the animals, such as brushing the T-rex's teeth! I recommend reading the book, not only does it immerse you in Jurassic Park a lot better since you take your time with the story, but also because the book is scarier. So add that to your reading list people!

Whenever you're tempted to respond to someone with a smart-arse comment, it behoves you to first ensure that you know whereof you speak. TL;DR Version: You come at the king, you'd best not miss. And you, Callum, have missed by a mile. For I was not being in the least bit pedantic, merely factual. The dinosaurs represented in this film, as in the original book, may be called "Velociraptors", but they are in fact the much larger Deinonychus. The author, Michael Crichton, simply liked the name Velociraptor as it sounded more dangerous and awe-inspiring. Velociraptor were about the size of a Turkey, and the author needed something larger and more threatening, which is why he based his version on the Deinonychus but called it Velociraptor. This is what's known as literary license. It's a work of fiction.

The triceratops was sick because it had accidentally eaten berries off the ground while it was gathering gizzard stones. This was explained in the novel, but didn't make the film for some reason.

@@kevinwilson140 hypothesis not hypnosis. Also mammals even then were arboreal. Lastly, it is extremely heavily supported by evidence and the impact crater and the hypothesized size of the asteroid are all large enough to have triggered the K-T Extinction, not to mention the severe additional after effects like a global blackout, radiation, forest fires, aerosols and freezing temperatures. I don't know where you got any other ideas from. The only rival is the impact crater off the shore of India called the Shiva Crater although that IS hotly debated. Additionally, non-avian dinosaurs didn't completely disappear by 69 MYA, their diversity shrank greatly however.

Two big things the movie got wrong: The Velociraptors in the movie are actually Deinonychus. But that name was considered too difficult to pronounce and sounded too innocuous, so the author of the book decided to call them Velociraptors instead. In reality, Velociraptors were much smaller, about the size of a Labrador. And the vision of a T. rex was not dependent on movement. In fact, T. rex had very good eyesight, comparable to that of hawks.

[@g13n79]

educated guesswork though . No dino eyeballs to study so its based on details like skull shape and eye socket circumference

[@johnnehrich9601]

In the novel of the same name by Michael Crichton, the limitation of the T-rex's vision was explained as because the scientists had to fill in gaps with frog DNA - the movie didn't have time for that explanation. Yes, Velociraptors were smaller. But since the movie was made, scientists know all these raptors except the biggest like T-rexs were heavily feathered, with longer feathers on their arms like proto-wings. (Wings evolved before they were used for flight - birds are descendants from the same group of dinos as theropods, with an incredibly smooth transition in appearance.) Despite this knowledge of the feathering - which allowed for stunning color schemes in some cases - the movie franchise refused to feather the beasts in their later sequels, even though they could have explained it as less frog DNA, more dino DNA. Personally Velociraptors, as we now know them, are my favorite dinos. The looked so much like birds, I guess sort of like larger roadrunners. The book and the movies make it appear that the JP Velociraptors do know but hunt to eat humans. In reality, they had the entire JP as a smorgasbord. Predators prefer prey that don't fight back and also smaller animals, because the predators can face real danger from larger prey. In actuality, we humans stink to predators - an evolutional protection because we sweat, particularly in our armpits, and our sense of smell is so limited. (Sharks are known to often only take a bit out of a swimmer, even big enough to be fatal, but then swim off.) Predators don't eat all the time as witness life on the African savanna, where all the animals hang out and only when hungry do the carnivores rouse themselves to hunt. And the most dangerous animals to humans are hippos, who are vegetarian but extremely territorial.

@@g13n79 But it is supported by dinos closest living relatives - both crocs and birds also have excellent vision. Birds have five different cones for color reception while humans only have three. They can see into the ultraviolet. The different mixes of five vs. three means they can see color shades that we can't even imagine. (I'm jealous.) We can also infer that dinos could see colors (not direct evidence but supporting how important vision was to them) because we now know the actual colors of some dinos which were indeed colorful. This wouldn't have evolved if they had really limited vision.

We might speculate about the raptors being pack hunters based on their physiology, but there would be zero info about the visual acuity of an animal from fossils of its bones.

Seeing it in theaters was magic. I was 13 and you were transported. The night I went to see it, there was a terrible thunderstorm. Just before the kitchen scene there was thunder so loud, it shook the building. And as the velociraptors came into the kitchen, the film melted across the the screen. I was like Aahhh. They’re here! lol

[@clarkmichaels822]

Something that I missed when watching the film the first time, but I think it's mentioned in the book, is that Hammond talks a lot about 'spared no expense' but actually runs a super cheap park where it counts. A lot of the security features are extremely simple and cheap, he doesn't pay his IT specialists enough (only Nedry was willing to even take the job), he only has one dinosaur wrangler, etc. As much as he spent on expensive food and night-vision goggles, he skimped out on the important stuff.

[@Rorujin]

Exactly. It's why nothing works, how the characters unlock stuff they shouldn't (the car, the ride locks), it's all because Hammond DID spare many expenses.

[@saberx08]

Much like most corporations. Spare no expense on all the showy - flashy stuff the public sees, while scrimping on all the necessary behind the scenes stuff that really matters.

muldoon is the game warden, that doesn't mean he is the only "dinosaur wrangler". This tour had minimal, essential staff only. Basically the department heads. THat doesn't mean that's all that would work if the park opened. but yes in general he was misguided.

Them knowing Spielberg from Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers and being surprised by this, when this is more what everyone knows Spielberg more from when Ryan was unique in his filmography. Also in the book (yes this was based on book), frog DNA wasn't used in all animals but some, including Raptors... They would use a particular animal DNA according to the gap's needs.

This is my husbands favourite movie franchise of all time. When it first came out he went to the cinema 16 times to see it and still watches it when it’s on tv now. I really enjoyed them, just not as much as my dinosaur obsessed husband.🦖

You guys should definitely do the original trilogy, it's nostalgia all around, sets are beautiful and dinos are great. Writing might be inconsistent but it still gives you a real "lost world" feeling. The following Jurassic World sequel is something else entirely in my opinion, would call it its own product (which it is).

So many memorable lines. Especially from Jeff Goldblum, or the Wizard of Uh as I like to call him.

2nd is actually a great sequel. You get to see the dinosaurs out of cages the whole time and I really loved the whole cast. Where it fails is in the 3rd act, as soon as the boat hits the dock it’s all downhill for numerous reasons. 3rd one has more problems than the second for sure (premise for being on the island and dream sequence)

[@rafaelcanosantos3554]

Fun fact, velociraptors height was around 75 cm and they've got feathers. Also, the theory shown in this movie about T-Rex's vision based on movement was proved to be wrong.

[@LegioXXI]

Yes but it's still an amazing movie. It never claimed to be 100% scientific. And also never forget that even within this movies canon, the Dinosaurs there are not 100% accurate clones, their DNA has been tempered with other reptiles DNA. Thats why i think it's okay if the Dinosaurs in this movies are not perfectly accurate, especially considering it's a movie from the 90s.

[@xeox4280]

I mean their genetic code isnt 100% dinosaur so it can make sense if they use that as explantation to why they are like that. They ruined it with jurassic world dominion tho.

[@zammmerjammer]

The T rex having vision-based movement can't be "proved wrong" any more than it can be proved right. You can't know anything about the visual acuity of an extinct animal from some fossilized bones. The reason for that characteristic in the book is because the T rex, just like all the park's dinosaurs, are Frankenstein's monsters cobbled together out of spare parts. I have no idea why the movie decided to present it as some accepted fact.

[@preston_s.]

I wished I'd been old enough to see this when it first showed in theaters. From what I hear, it absolutely blew people away at the time. It was so far beyond anything they'd seen in a movie before.

[@LudusAurea]

It was an experience. The speakers when the trex roared 💯

[@zammmerjammer]

100% The awestruck look on Ellie's and Alan's faces when they first see the brachiosaurus was exactly the experience of the audience -- complete wonder. I still have occasional nightmares I'm being chased by a T. rex or velociraptors.

My favorite was a Velociraptor. I even had a rock shaped like one of the claws and a collection of them as toys. Even had a field blade that was sumilar to their claws.

[@MarcoMM1]

Great reaction like always, What an epic movie love it. When I saw this in the theaters there was NO CONVINCING anyone that dinosaurs were not real. The CGI and effects were so beyond anyone’s imagination. It still holds up decades later. The part where Dr. Grant sees the dinosaur for the first time always puts a lump in my throat. He's spent his entire life digging up their remains and from that, trying to determine how they lived, hunted, mated, everything. He's even talking to himself going over what he thought he always knew about them. Super powerful and well acted if you ask me! Here's a fun fact that has been stuck in my head for 30 years.The iconic water cup was actually really difficult to create. They spent weeks trying to figure out how to get the perfect ripples. By accident it was discovered that placing the glass on a guitar and plucking the strings created the ripples, so they ran a guitar string from bottom of the glass to the bottom of the car and plucked it. Perfect ripples. One of those cool super simple solutions that just need someone to think of them. Keep up the good work.

Like I always say. The decade of the 90ies are one of the best for movies. Smart and intense stories, real explosions, real practical effects and of course the right portion of humor. CGI was smart integrated and not exaggerated. That's why I still love theses movies. Terminator 2, True lies, Speed, Independence Day, Jumanji, Forrest Gump, Starship Troopers, Titanic ... These were and still are good movies. As well as Good Will Hunting, American Beauty, Basic Instinct... Great reaction by the way! 😊 Greetings from Germany ✌🏽

[@kappa_06]

Jurassic Park is a unique movie in the History of the cinema. For me this is the fronter of old school movie and new CGI Hollywood's movie. This is the fronter between : "We don't have CGI but we make scenario with strong dialogues and character" and "We have CGI, both scenario and dialogues are not so important now, they are secondary" Jurassic Park is the first true CGI movie, and he take the best from old school and new modern movies. He is the metaphore of the Hollywood industry itself : “Our profession is finished” - “you mean extinct!” is a sentence that Phil Tippett, a great specialist in models and animatronics and stop motion, would have uttered when he saw CGI for the first time (Phil Tippett = Half of the Star Wars animatronics, the stop motion TBTTs, the insects from Starship Troopers, the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park...)

[@meltorme-ntor2933]

It is so mind boggling to me when I see very young folks like yourselves who weren't even born when this movie came out enjoying it! Spartan, you asked if we liked the other two movies as much as this one. Well, for me, I will be one of those that goes with the first one. The thing about it is, as with other classics like Star Wars Episode IV, The Lord of the Rings, and maybe The Birds (among others) this was the very first time we had seen something like this! In the case of Jurassic Park, this was the first CGI we had seen used for "live" animals that interacted with humans. it was seamless, and we didn't have the herky-jerky movements of stop-motion. it was astounding to see this in the theaters! A first for many reasons! Oh, and also the idea that birds evolved from dinosaurs was pretty new at the time, so this movie helped propagate the idea further in the non-scientific world.

[@obijuankenobi8932]

Fun fact: It was found that T-Rex vision actually wasn't based on movement so being still would only make you easier to catch. Michael Crichton even poked fun at the idea in the second Jurassic park novel

[@devilkyn1]

This film was made around the same time that scientists were experimenting with genetics and cloning was making headlines as debates raged. It was only a couple years later that Dolly the sheep was successfully cloned. Also this film was a major shift from practical effects to CGI. Most of the CGI was invented specifically for Jurrasic Park and it blew people's minds how realistic the dinosaurs looked.

This blew cinema goers minds in 1993. It was one of those films that everyone was talking about when it came out.

I was a kid when this movie came out. We all flocked to the theaters to see realistic dinosaurs for the first time and were quickly amazed by the visual effects which still hold up today, and then spent the rest of the film's running time scared shitless because it's basically a horror movie.
