[@manospondylus]

When you think about it the second Jurassic Park movie is a hommage to the 1925 Lost World, especially since both movies end with a brought back dinosaur destroying a city.

[@KonguZya]

It's actually pretty funny to see basically the exact models from Walking With Dinosaurs in this.

[@Jarod-sm5rf]

The allosaurus in the 2001 version was awesome.

[@sopp9747]

The guy who did the stop motion for the 1925 film is actually Willis O'Brien, The same guy who would later do the stop motion for the original King Kong

It's funny to me that the remake, with all of its fancy modern CGI, is less spectacle-focused and overall seems to have more heart to it than the original. How often does _that_ happen?

[@velociraptor4you3291]

I personally consider the 2001 adaptation to be a showcase of some of Bob Hoskins' BEST acting (right next to his role as Eddie Valiant in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit").

[@hedgehog3180]

I think what's really interesting from a film perspective here is how comparatively the remake is worse in many ways film critiques would judge a movie (as in they think about context and care much more about cinematic innovation and impact) and definitely had a lower budget and smaller audience but in a side by side comparison it comes out better just because of how much better we have gotten at making movies over this period. It really demonstrates how far the medium has come in that a minor thing like this can beat out an old giant, not to put the old movie down but like things like acting, film techniques and most importantly effects have gotten so much better over this period that we've just gotten really good at making movies.

[@InfernoMage_1999]

After seeing the dinosaur designs in these two movies side-by-side makes me realizes that people complain so much about the old depictions, when in reality when dinosaurs like a T-Rex standing up straight or some herbivore dinosaurs with their front legs being more like lizards/reptiles came out as toys, no one cared because they were just dinosaurs. I wish dinosaur toys like those were still around today.

[@EC2019]

They are. Have you seen the series "Your Dinosaurs Are Wrong" on the channel called "The Geek Group"? It's awesome.

[@jackmills7758]

I never thought the 2001 film as remake, its more of another adaptation from the book to me. If it were a remake wouldn't you think there would be way more dinosaur action? I think the 2001 version is just a adaptation from the book rather than a remake.

[@enriqueramirez0615]

Most of the dinosaurs in the 1925 version of "The Lost World" were actually based on Charles R. Knights Dinosaur paintings including the elusive "Agathaumas".

[@Saltyaf38]

I like the effects in 1925 because it's all stop motion. But everything else including the design for the allosaurus is better in 2001

[@Dontuween]

Sorry, but no one tops Wallace Berry as Challenger. Not Claude Rains, not Bob Hoskins.

[@Anthony-ce8zs]

The Lost World gave Michael Crichton inspiration to right his novel " Michael Crichton's The Lost World " and the inspiration for Steven Spielberg to do " The Lost World: Jurassic Park "

[@MasterodD]

Anthony Siciliano actually Crichton writed the Lost World since his fans asked for a sequal for Jurassic Park

[@OBrasilo]

The inspiration was definitely there though, even more so in the movie, whose segment of the T. rex rampaging through San Diego was clearly inspired by the 1925 The Lost World's segment of the Brontosaurus rampaging through London.

[@tomcross3000]

The things i love the most from the 01 version were the allosaurus pair. It felt like an homage to the t rex pair in the jp one a few years earlier, similar colours and everything. I loved the constant wwd callbacks with the creature designs too

[@albanovkonrad]

Always nice to see the 2001 mini-series getting some love and recognition. One of the best dinosaur films ever made in my opinion; unfortunate that so few people know about it.

[@Johnny-Thunder]

My thought as well: it is actually my favourite film. I just love every second of it.

[@martincaspary-smith1133]

I remember the 2001 The Lost World TV film from my childhood. My parents taped it off TV for me when I was very young along with the less know 1994 The Jungle Book film.

[@milesbradshaw6643]

Also unfortunate that tracking down the dvd is difficult as hell. It is on amazon prime though.

[@elaegypticus728]

3 things I must say: 1.I've seen both movies and I loved them. 2.You know BBC is the documentary equivalent of the marvel C.U. when a Entelodont makes a cameo. 3.You should review Primeval.

[@dragonstar2387]

I concur; he should definitely review Primeval.

[@steadyalbatross]

King Kong owes more than most to the original, as it was the movie that gave the legendary special effects guru Willis O'Brien the momentum he needed to get king Kong. The stop motion in that movie was literally a direct evolution of the lost world

[@jamesthomas5109]

2:14 that soundtrack is amazing, very classic and easy to remember.

[@patrickchoque7720]

Those bloody creepy-ass lizard men in land of the lost gave me nightmares. Terrifying.

I feel like the 2001 film would become a cult classic if it was talked about by a huge youtuber, like Cinemassacre, talked about it. It's a great film, and not enough people have seen it

[@DinoGoodley]

Underrated and under appreciated

[@supermariologanfan6546]

2:26 Maybe the film was made by the same people who made the Walking With series

[@dondragmer2412]

The 2001 ending is good in some ways but I am ambivalent about it. National parks and pleas to save rare creatures did exist in 1911 to 1925 though not to the extent that it does today, so I am not sure the explorers would have gone through with it. And such an ending begs for a sequel (as does Doyle's story, which he never did write, though in The Poison Belt he brings back the same characters), in which the future of the plateau and its inhabitants is left hanging. In the novel Roxton does say he'll return to the Lost World, and Malone says he'll go with him. Perhaps to steal more diamonds from the natives? Good thing the films left that part out. One wonders if, as the 2001 version suggests, that the plateau and its inhabitants would have been exploited to death by civilization. But I wonder about the fates of the explorers in the 2001 film. Challenger's and Summerlee's scientific careers are ruined. Ditto Malone's journalistic career. But I suppose his novel was a hit. I kind of wonder how they made it out of that presentation in the zoology hall alive. And could the audience really believe a Pteranodon could have been faked so realistically? What did they think it was? A shaved pelican with ornaments? Summerlee does allude to some kind of vulture but that creature did not look at all like a vulture.

[@edoardotortora628]

I've got the 2001 version in a special limited packagein edition and... Oh men!!! Is the top of the top!!! I think is the best film with dinosaurs... With 2005 king kong and the first 2 films of Jurassic Park in my hands I am so happy!!! Bit this film, for me is so beautiful and amazing... Mix one part with actors like Bob Hoskins, Peter Falk, and James Fox with other two with the same dinosaurs and prehistoric animals by the WWD, WWP, WWM group of Tim Haines.... And an instant BBC classic is make!!!

Great video, man! I have seen all your videos, but your reviews are the best for Prehistoric Life lovers like myself. Keep them up, as I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the Chased by series as well as Planet Dinosaur, if you choose to review these great docs. I love both Lost World movies, even though I havn't seen the one from 2001 in years. I first saw the 1925 one in 2003, and found it to be my second favorite dinosaur movie, after Jurassic Park. Today, it might be lower in the list, but I still love it. I really need to hunt down the 2001 version ASAP.

[@gavinkailey332]

2001 was my favorite cause I watched walking with dinosaurs and beasts with my dad and I kept getting his attention when the enteledont was on screen

[@maniacalmatt917]

I'm sorry but im a gun nerd. Edward does know how to hold a gun. It was a double barrel elephant rifle, it has two triggers and he fired the first one just before, missing. He then moved to the other trigger, Roxton even says, "Not yet. (Bang) Not yet! I said not yet! Other barrel!" I'd say Roxton barely knows anything about guns since he decides, "Okay, big ass Allosaurus is killing people, and I need to take it down, I'm the only one who can. Now, let me take this Martini Henry, a rifle made for killing people in WW1, instead of the 700 Nitro Express I brought specifically saying earlier that it can kill a charging elephant and 1,000 yards!" This film is in my top 5 but that was dumb asf. The setup for that scene was good though, since Roxton says, "Tell me, have you ever been close enough to a really dangerous wild animal to stare into its eyes? You mind telling me what you see there? Your own death." "A rather uncomfortable experience i imagine." "On the contrary its profoundly stimulating, you might want to get that down." That scene is a good way to complete the transformation from the Virgin Edward to the Chad Mr Malone, but Roxton having access to the elephant gun but not using it is dumb.

[@aebhosor4835]

Wow, you really do know your guns... Also, I didn't know Double barrels have two triggers... I though they fire both once you pulled the trigger

[@maniacalmatt917]

@@aebhosor4835 if it fired both at the same time you'd fall flat on your ass and need a new arm and shoulder lmao. A majority of double barrel firearms have two triggers, it's more common than not. A lot of single barrel muzzle loaders and muskets ha e two triggers too. If you pull the trigger not connected to the firing pin it turns your firing trigger into a hair trigger, meaning there is VERY little resistance to your shot, which helps with recoil and makes your shot more accurate. Gun design is super interesting, check out Forgotten Weapons if you wanna learn more, he makes super informative content.

i loved this movie (2001 version) as a kid, probebly saw it dozens of times since i was seven. Now ten years later i rewatched it, and to my surprise i still like it. Actually, i am prety sure i can appreciate the movie better now that i can actually undersrand the plot. I was surprised by this video It learned me that i still misunderstood some of the plot. I thought the ape man turbed out not to be evil, but that they sensed the presence of the dinosaurs, and actually tried to warn the people by screaming and drawing dinosaurs on the ground. then they helped the news reporter by putting poop on him so he wouldn't get killed. The only reason that the ape man attacked the hunter later on is because he was mire agressive and connencted with the native tribe, which was the enemy of the ape man.

[@Thagomizer]

11:52 "That's actually pretty historically accurate . . ." Wait, what, now? The very first scientific description of a dinosaur ever published in an academic journal was written by a clergyman. His name was William Buckland. In fact, the church of England has produced more great paleontologists than any other organized religion--possibly more than any other institution. Geology itself started out as a branch of Natural Theology, and all of the founding fathers of this science, like Cuvier, Buckland, Mantell, Owen, Lyell, Conybeare, Agassiz, Murchison, Sedgwick, Anning, etc. were devout Christians themselves. Sometimes, as in the case of Buckland, their work was even done for theological reasons. It isn't at all the case that there was no interpretive framework for understanding fossils before Darwin came along.

[@greenveilgaming1149]

He means in general religious authorities trying to go smother science in general, not necessarily palaeontology.

[@cookiesontoast9981]

I've seen the original version loads of times, even got it on blu ray now and it's glorious. But I had no idea that the 2001 version existed, I knew about the 1960 version but never the 2001 version, it doesn't look bad at all but it honestly is a turn off to me when almost all of a movies special effects are CGI, but I will likely still check the 2001 version out sometime.

[@terrorcop101]

I get the feeling that the 2001 version may have taken some influence from the Lost World pair of films starring John Rhys Davis as Prof. Challenger. In the end of the first film, the Lost World was somewhere in Africa and the baby pterosaur got put into the London Zoo, until the characters released it due to how scared and lonely it was. The second one picked up not long after in which an expedition from I think Belgium showed up and tried to add the region to their territory, prompting the original expedition to return and rescue the native population.

11:30 while there was no religious figure in the book, there was a man who caused the characters to become stranded on the plateau.

Sometimes I theorize on my own that the ape-men in Doyle's story evolved convergently from capuchin or howler monkeys.

Especially the original , like you said the animation fir it's time is well timeless even if it is a bit dated. Atleast in the remake they made the dinosaurs appear as realistic as possible without over doing it, like on some other movies we see these days .... Well I guess we all hot to move in with the progress of CGI. But in some intances you can't beat the old fashion stop go motion and the use of life like animatronic creatures.

Excellent review! I completely agree with everything you said. As much as I enjoy and appreciate the 1925 classic, the 2001 version stands as the superior film in my eyes. The characters are much more three-dimensional and interesting and have their own individual stories and personal adventures to embark on. I also enjoyed touches such as Challenger having a fear of heights (at a moment when he seemed to be afraid of nothing) and being envious of Summerlee for his family. Completely agreed on the love story in the remake vs the love story in the original. This is the sort of screen romance where you actually feel happy to see the couple together at the end, whereas in the original it's just sort of expected, even by its own time. Not to mention: the 2001 version is such a well-written and well-paced story that it doesn't even feel a bit long at nearly three hours.
