THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK (1997) MOVIE REACTION - FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW

Welcome to my first time watching as we react to The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997). Diving back into the world of dinosaurs there are a lot of elements to enjoy in this film, a lot of exciting sequences, suspense and of course jaw-dropping visual effects.
In "The Lost World: Jurassic Park," we follow Dr. Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) as he returns to a new island filled with dinosaurs. This time, he's not alone! With a team of adventurers, including Julianne Moore and Vince Vaughn, they face off against prehistoric predators and corporate greed.
There was an improvement in the practical effects department which was already impressive and as close to perfection as you could get at the time. Any time we had a physical dinosaur on screen we were instantly overwhelmed with the same sense of awe. The effects in this one still hold up and somehow this film looks even better from a cinematography point of view.
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and review as we discuss the film's groundbreaking special effects, suspenseful storyline, and unforgettable characters. From the heart-pounding scenes of having two T. rex attack an RV simultaneously to seeing the velociraptor's agility as they coordinate an attack this movie, although not as incredibly good as the first one was, is a phenomenal time.

Out of all the movies, this death is the most heartbreaking. Next would be Samuel L Jackson.

[@scottb3034]

and the crazy thing is that he didn't need to do that. The female rex had its foot on the hood of the Mercedes which prevented it from going anywhere so eddie could have repositioned himself to allow himself to free the rifle a bit better and perhaps shoot the male to scare the female away. Now he probably couldn't have saved the trailers with a dead t rex blocking his path but he could have kept them up long enough to allow everyone to ascend and then he could jump out of the destroyed SUV.

[@thedrunkenelf]

The first Jurassic Park has themes of creation, this one has themes of parenting. It’s cool how it follows on.

There’s one scene in this movie that never fails to send chills down my spine. When Ian, Eddie, Kelly are up in the High Hide. And suddenly from the darkness you hear the trumpeting roar of the Tyrannosaur. Just the look on Ian’s face says it all. He’s terrified. But still remains calm for his daughter and Eddie.

[@stephencivic1989]

I agree. Even some 30yrs later that scene still gives me chills. That feeling of “oh, shit we have royally f***ed up now.” The only thing I personally didn’t like about this film is it doesn’t have my favorite character “The Dinosaur Man” Dr. Allen Grant. He is my biggest inspiration for learning about dinosaurs in real life.

[@adamjustsaw]

I saw it in the theater and when the Rex roar erupted, everyone in the theater went dead silent. (And remained that way from that way until the end of the Camper attack scene.)

[@AlpineWoods]

The guy who gets eaten by the T-Rex in San Diego was played by screenwriter David Koepp. He was credited as "Unlucky Bastard". He co-wrote the first Jurassic Park and many other movies, and he's writing the new Jurassic Park reboot and Spielberg's new alien movie.

This film is John Hammond's (Richard Attenborough) last acting appearance in the series. He appeared as painting on walls a couple times since. He had intended to be in the fourth film but fell in his home in 2008 and retired from acting. He passed away in 2014, one year before the release of Jurassic World. A promotional website for Jurassic World revealed his character died shortly after the events of this film in 1997.

Which made no sense since he was clearly intended to be getting healthier/stronger at the end of TLW. They should have had him pass in the early 2000s.

A lot of people hate this film, but I think this feeling comes from an unfair comparison with the first one. The first film is a milestone in the history of cinema, no sequel will come close. If we watch this film as its own product, it is excellent.

[@lyndoncmp5751]

Much like Jaws 2.

[@j.w.sraptorsquad982]

I definitely wouldn't say I hate this movie (or any of the others in this franchise), but I admit it would be at the bottom of my personal ranking of these films, more for what are probably nit-picks than serious drawbacks, although I would say the 'biggest' of them probably stem from the fact that I greatly prefer Dr Grant over Dr Malcom, so that's this movie's biggest detractor to me, which isn't really that big

[@Beforezzz]

Same goes for JP3.

[@terrylandess6072]

I find the extra baggage they added to make the story work a bit pushy, but luckily it passes and is mostly forgotten once the film takes off. Malcolm would NEVER have signed such documents and with that example we can see where the story diverges from the first poorly. That was a choice which didn't help this otherwise decent addition to the franchise.

[@LudusAurea]

I don't think people hate this movie because it's not a good movie. I think they hate it because while Jurassic Park at least had like a 65% connection to the actual Jurassic Park story after Koepp touched the script Crichton wrote, Lost World has like a 5% connection to the book it's "based on" and a .5% connection to the first book and maybe a 30% connection to the first movie. Simply put, almost everything about this movie is wrong when compared to the book and the first movie.

[@DaddyDoom]

Jeff Goldblum has always been this strange mythical actor because he manages to play these badass characters but in real life he is the chillest, most eccentric, laid back dude with a mischievous quirk and a great sense of humor. Love the dude.

That bird's eye shot of the team moving through the tall grass and several shadows silently approaching them and leaving trails, the team can't see anything from their level but us audience see everything.... such a good shot that 25 years later "Prey" did a similar shot.

[@scottb3034]

and originally they were pissed that the grass left trails because for every take of the scene they had to go to different places in the field they grew and crane the raptors to the spot so it would be fresh without trails to cover up. they wanted the grass to spring right back up. which when you think about it makes sense since if they left trails like that then most of the grass would be trampled if real dinosaurs lived in it.

[@GenericStatue]

​@@scottb3034not necessarily, in nature today a trail forms and most critters follow the trail that's already been made. No reason to think it'd be any different for dinos.

[@scottb3034]

@@GenericStatue I don't know what that has to do with what I was saying though. I was saying the filmmakers wanted the grass to pop back up instead of being trampled down so create a concealing effect and it makes sense because of the grass stayed down after an animal walked over it then all the grass should be trampled. Doesn't work for the scene.

[@pepperje11y]

Fun fact, the scene with the little Compies swarming and killing the electrocution ahole was put in there to pay homage to the original ending of the first BOOK where this happened to Hammond. Hammond was so much more evil in the book, and it was SO satisfying lol.

[@TheDevilHydraProdsXXII]

And my favorite part was that it was because he thought he was being chased by a T-Rex and broke his leg but it was just Lex and Tim playing T-Rex roars over the PA system lol. Book Hammond deserved it.

[@Ashmo613]

The Jurassic Park and Jurassic World movies mix and match scenes from the two books. You can find them all throughout. It will sometimes be different people or different dinosaurs, but what happens is almost identical. Do you remember the raptors chasing someone on the roof and her having to jump down or the T-Rex and the waterfall from the first book? The beginning of this is the first book's beginning.

[@Shritistrang]

Malcolm said in the first movie that he has several kids. Fun fact: In the Lego Jurassic Park video game, no human character died. All those people that were killed, eaten, torn apart by the dinosaurs... they all managed to escape somehow. Another fun fact: That shot of the T-Rex destroying the bus was used in a commercial for car insurance.

[@tomvel9598]

I think he said 3 kids 🤔

[@shainewhite2781]

This movie is a lot darker than its predecessor, which one of the reasons why not everyone likes it, even the critics said that it was too dark and scary and too violent for the family audience and that's what makes this series great, it keeps you at the edge of your seat till the very where you breathe a huge sigh of relief and they all live happily ever after, until the next crazy adventure.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

That’s a shame! We enjoyed the different tone. It kind of goes hand in hand narratively with the fact that this time they are out in the wild.

[@Ashmo613]

The people who say that have clearly never read the first Jurassic Park book. It is more dark, scary, and gory than this movie. My teenage daughter says I ruined the first movie for her by giving her the book to read. She says it makes the movie look like a kids' film in comparison.

The trailer sequence with the Rexes is phenomenal, easily one of the most nerve-racking and intense moments of the entire Jurassic Park series, and just film in general, from it hanging over the edge, Sarah landing on the window, the glass cracking, Eddie trying to save the group. It cranked up the tension and suspense that worked so well in first film up to eleven! It's expertly shot by Spielberg!

[@thehorrorcounselors4747]

My favourite of all the Jurassic movies! It feels like the black sheep of the family simply because it doesnt have Alan Grant but I just don’t agree, The cast of this movie just made the movie, and Ian Malcolm is my favourite protagonist of all the movies, He’s not the Dino hunter or the Dino Expert, he’s just a very smart dude that got into something outta his control.

The baby t-rex was an actual fully functional interactive puppet that was programmed to move around by itself.

Also dives deeper into how he is a hunter too. He speaks about how him and RJ were basically a firing squad. They were too good. There was no thrill. He was even humble saying its okay if the animal gets away. (Sets up how he felt when RJ died) also during the rex camp scene mofo was in like no cover and he stood up let the rex see him and backed away slowly. So you know his hunting expeditions weren't like heavily obscured. Aside from the tree on the island but it was just like a tarp? And that tree had like no leafs just a lot of branches. Then he said some real deep you get more prison time for killing a tiger than murdering your own parents.

[@minnesotajones261]

That scene with Roland shows so much character for him. It's not that long either, so no reason to be cut from the theatrical release.

[@cyanide7270]

Its because of this deleted scene that i actually have a head canon revolving around Roland and Muldoon from the first movie. Roland shows that hes got a sense of 'honour' in him, and Muldoon was Hammonds game warden in Kenya, while Roland is a big game hunter and though not 'specifically' said, i think he would operate around that area, so i would imagine theyve have a few run ins on occasion. Hes been effectively retired from hunting when we meet him in this scene, and i think its because after Malcolm went public about what happened on the island, Roland heard that Muldoon was one of the deaths and out of respect for him, stopped hunting. Until hearing he has the opportunity to hunt one of the biggest game of all, a T.Rex, that he agrees to come along. Seeing that Ajay, his friend, died on this second island after getting involved with dinosaurs, he quits for good.

No offense, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. No dinosaur discovered and researched has any proof of having venomous glands. Unless you are talking about Procompsognathus from the novel (which wasn't even related in the slightest to the Compsognathus, and the fact it lived in the Triassic, in reality ofcourse). Compy is used in the movies instead of Procompy from both of the novels. And they even mixed their latin names in the movie: Compsognathus triassicus, while irl it's Procompsognathus triassicus, and ofc Compsognathus longipes.

Fun Fact. Steven Spielberg always wanted to make a King Kong movie. He said the King Kong movie from the 70's was so good in his perspective, he wanted to incorporate some of it in Jurassic Park. For example the Giant Wooden Gate and Ian's comemntary to expect King Kong, but also the choice of giant animatronic T-Rex because the giant animatronic King Kong was mind blowing to him. (src. Making-Of Jurassic Park) With The Lost World he had some snippits of the orig. Dino Park story that he could use to drive his movie, making it his own King Kong narrative. It's almost 1 to 1 the same story and it's on purpose. Calling it "The Lost World" was actually more of a decoy, expecting the narrative being the one of the same novel, wich it wasn't.

[@lyndoncmp5751]

Spielberg was a huge fan of the 1933 King Kong. Not heard him say he thought King Kong 1976 was so good but he did love the special effects of the face so much that he hired the guy for Close Encounters Of The Third Kind. Carlo Rambaldi.

[@terrylandess6072]

This is why Spielberg got away with so much. The comparisons to other movies is always there - almost in your face, but he is able to replace enough cogs which would normally be in something else which really camouflage's any hint of plagiarism. JJ Abrams never learned that.

[@jhiieri7812]

If I remember correctly, the massive gate in the original movie was a prop taken from the movie King Kong.... which is why Goldblum quips "Who do they have in there, King Kong?" is both a nod to the movie and a tongue and cheek pun.

[@scottb3034]

the lost world title worked better for the film than the novel because just like the conan doyle novel (that the book is named after) a dinosaur goes to and terrorizes civilization...at least the 1920s movie adaptation did that. King Kong is actually a copycat of the Lost World in that respect.

A scene involving Ludlow getting drunk and falling on the baby Rex and accidentally breaking its leg was filmed but cut due to pacing issues. Roland and Ajay find more dinosaur footprints and corpses of other animals, leading all the way to work Rex nest. A scene has Malcolm asking Sarah's hand in marriage when all of them head back to the mainland. This happens before Roland returns to the campsite. Ajay was going to fight off a raptor with his large hunting knife in the tall grass sequence, but it was cut for pacing issues. His screams can be heard in the background. A lot of endings were storyboarded but never filmed: Malcolm and the others make it to the worker camp, and see a helicopter in the distance, until a Pteranodon attacks the helicopter, until Malcolm kills the pterosaur with a flare gun. Another alternative ending had Malcolm and the others jump off a cliff to escape the raptors, where the dinosaurs die after jumping off the cliff. Luckily, they had backpacks with hand gliders inside them. They get attacked by Pteranodons and that Roland was going to die a hero's death as he save Sarah from the pterosaurs.

It's possible that the Rex ate some of raptors, which explains why there's no evidence of their existence.

the marriage scene is either incorrect of an alternative to another deleted scene in which ian talks to kelly about marrying sarah before she enters the tent to go to sleep. also there was another ending (or at least a continuation of one of the other endings) for ludlow/roland. Ludlow and roland were supposed to come upon the rex (roland to hunt it and ludlow for his own reasons similar to the finished film of having the baby rex). ludlow panics and gets killed while roland doesn't get his prize at all but does survive after rescuing ian and kelly from the pteranodons.

[@RaptorNX01]

the raptor rumor came from a post on the movies IMDB trivia page that was posted many years ago. but there is no proof such a scene ever existed. its not in any version of the script (which you can read online), nor in any of BTS of the film. assuming it wasn't made up whole-cloth its likely a misinterpretation of a scene from the first book that was cut for the movie. in the original first book one of the reasons grant and the kids are rushing to get back is because the kid spot the boat leaving the dock and see raptors climbing aboard. So they try to get back to tell the boat to turn around. in the movie its supposed to be that the rex escaped and killed everyone, except for one guy that lived just long enough to die holding the button to close the cargo bay doors. its presumed the hand in the wheelhouse was a guy getting grabbed before he could get all the way in, managed to grab the wheel but was yanked out so hard his hand was ripped off.

As a fan of these movies I am obligated by law to mention that originally a scene was cut where the baby rex's leg was broken. Originally Roland brought it back to the camp muzzled, then Ludlow came out of the tent drunk and fell on the rex's leg breaking it. Roland grabbed him by his collar and threw him away and stole his bottle of booze. Thats why in the scene with the baby tied down you can see a little bowl and a bottle right next to the rex to help it deal with the pain. Its also why Ludlow is acting drunk after the trailer goes off the cliff and he grabs a flask. Then at the end of the movie why the Papa Rex chomps down on Ludlow's leg and throws him to the baby.

I do appreciate how The Lost World tries to be closer in tone to the books. The compy attack is very similar to what happens to Hammond in the first book. One fun fact the movies never bring up is that compys are actually venomous, and their bites cause a very mild narcotic effect that disorients and numbs their vicitms.

Ironically, I have a theory that while yes, Compies are venomous in the franchise it's accelerated from eating the fecal matter from the bigger animals.

I loved the way Spielberg chose to write Roland. He could have went for a stereotypical hunter villain, but he chose to write him as more nuanced than that. In one of the deleted scenes he reveals he only likes the hunt when its him and what he is after. He doesn't hunt animals that can't fight back and explains to Ajay he became disillusioned with hunting when he was taking "rich dentists" out for safari hunts. Saying they were no better than a firing squad. Its why hunting the Buck T. Rex is so personal to him. Its the chase of the feeling he used to have. But when Ajay is killed you can see the chase is gone from his eyes, despite succeeding. "I've spent too long in the company of death".

[@bulma12345678910]

Spielberg said Pete Postlethwaite was 'probably the best actor in the world'. He elevates pretty much everything he's in and Tembo is one of the best things about this film. That scene in the jeep where he dismantles Ludlow is a way better introduction than the deleted scene imo. I bet him and Muldoon from the first film would have been good mates

[@muddywaters2818]

What I loved about this film was Speilberg used ideas from the first novel and unused props from the 1st film in this film.

I see a lot of dramatic situational what if's strung together the best they could and called it a narrative. Seriously - take any of the Island scenes and just remove it. The movie wouldn't suffer at all. They go to the island and bring back 'Kong'. Everything in between is fluff.

The Lost World: Jurassic Park and the original are my favorite movies in the franchise. The replayability with them is insane. 😊 Dr. Ian Malcolm deserves to take his rightful place as THE protagonist. Loved Julianne Moore's performance as Dr. Sarah Harding. Her chemistry with Dr. Malcolm was nice to witness. The horror elements and the action sequences in The Lost World beat those of even the original. And that was when the dinos were menacing and wild.

44:20 - That's not the Cone-shell neurotoxin gun. That was stuck in Eddie's car, and was destroyed when it flew off the cliff. This dart-gun is one of the ones the raiders brought to the island to dart the dinosaurs with sedatives.

[@nicolelandberg543]

I grew up with these movies and my son got so into dinosaurs after watching them for the first time when he was little (I personally remember at his age having nightmares about T-Rex's walking outside my house and looking through my windows for me thanks to this movie, lol). We played the Lego Jurassic World game together which was really cute and cool after watching all the movies, you should try, they use recordings and real dialogue from the movies

[@eliberdinner4808]

The paleontologist with the In/Gen group, with the long hair and cowboy hat, is based on Dr Robert Bakker, who Tim references in the first movie. Dr Bakker is a friendly rival of JP's paleontology expert, Dr Jack Horner. Alan Grant was partially based on Dr Horner.

[@matthewmira3265]

The name of the paleontologist is Robert Burke.

[@abranca38]

Something I should point out is that the male T-Rex has green colored skin while the female has brown colored skin. Also, the raptors in this movie have tiger colors

[@reduxmod9178]

Something I've only just noticed. towards the end of the film is when John Hammond ( Richard Attenborough ) was speaking about the future for dinosaurs . He had the exact cadence, tone of voice and spoke as if it were his Brother giving his opinion. a homage to his Brother. A nice touch I missed when I saw it years ago..

[@BorisK83]

The guy with the glasses that gets eaten by Rexy is actually David Koepp. Screenwriter of both Jurassic Park and The Lost World. Currently there's a sequel to Jurassic World Dominion in the works with another script penned by Koepp. That might ensure a certain quality storywise as producers and cast members are praising it in high notes.

[@mr_yoru5834]

I think this sequel is a little underrated just for not being as good as the original, but I do like how it expands on the themes from the first movie about how humanity acts so irresponsibly towards nature and puts more focus on the ecology on the island.

[@JoseLopez-yv1lc]

[@benmason9755]

Back in 1997 that whole first T-Rex sequence ALONE made this movie worth paying to see. I don't understand people who think this is inferior to the first film - in some ways I think this is EVEN BETTER.

[@erikolson4148]

21:42 In a deleted scene, the reason why the baby T-Rex has a broken leg 🦵 😢 and is wailing out in pain is because John Hammond's dirt bag of a nephew (Peter Ludlow) 😠😡 while drunk, kicked/stomped on the poor thing's leg 🥺😣😔! He treats the dinosaurs 🦕 🦖 like they're objects to be used for profit 📈, and not the _living creatures_ that they *are* 😠😡!

[@erikolson4148]

It certainly explains why the baby T-Rex was hissing and growling at him (Peter Ludlow) on the boat 🚢, and the father T-Rex most likely put two and two together that he was the cause of all the emotional and physical pain that their family had to endure for the past few days 🤔🙄😒🤨. Before Ludlow can escape from the cargo hold, he bites down onto his leg enough to make him bleed and likely have broken bones 🦴, in a whole lot of pain not too proud to beg for mercy 😏. And the baby T-Rex is given the honor of finishing off the little weasel, as the father T-Rex watches proudly at his little boy 🤗😉👍😌.

Absolute pleasure to watch Ari & Denise react to this excellent sequel, your passion, excitement & enjoyment for movies shines in every reaction you do. My favourite of the franchise, I remember seeing this opening weekend in England & the 2 T - Rex sequence the audience was on tenterhooks. This channel is a wonderful tonic & a great pick me up.

[@Alexbarajasc]

It's always fun seeing people react to the JP franchise! TLW in particular is my favorite of them all. I just want to add some fun context to some scenes that we only get to see on photos taken from set or script notes. 1- Baby rex's broken leg was actually caused by a drunken Ludlow, which you can see him carrying around a liqor flask, who stumbled and fell on top of the baby´s leg while having a conversation with Roland. This makes the last scene of the baby getting revenge on Ludlow even better. 2- The flying car landing close to Lando & Ajay was caused by Nick's sabotage mission. Before we see Nick & Sarah cutting the dinos free, we can see Nick cutting gas lines of many vehicles causing a pool of gasoline. When Dinos stormed the camp and fire started that is why we can see explosions start to happen, sending a vehicle on fire up in the air. 3- Dieter's death. Throughout his escaping Compys sequence you can see him get progressively erratic & exhausted. It turns out, in the books, Compys have a sedative saliva that causes numbing of the body. Dieter gets bitten multiple times in multiple ocassions, so by the time Dieter tries to climb that log he was barelyu capable of moving so he was an easy meal for the compys.

[@SMHanslo]

[@MarvelConnoisseur]

Love this movie and that scene with the trees swaying like grass while Eddie and Kelly watch still gives me goosebumps. Also, if you guys notice the continuity in that scene, Ian immediately puts his JP1 experience to use by turning off the light so the parents don’t see them. The Buck T-Rex is tied with Rexy as my favorite T-Rex in the franchise. Here’s some scary facts about T-Rex: - they have a powerful sense of sight and they could spot you from 3-4 miles out like a bird of prey - they have a bite force of 12,800 lbs. (6.8 tons) and is the most powerful bite of any land animal - they had padding on their feet like elephants and tigers that allow them to sneak up on their prey even though they’re huge - they’re the largest predatory dinosaur ever (weight wise)

[@dracodracarys2339]

I'm realizing just now that the male and female raptors, and the male and female T. Rexes, are actually different colors. Huh.

[@Darthkiller3118]

"Oh yeah, Oooh! Ahhh! That's how it always starts. Then later there's running and screaming." Good god, I love this film with a passion! John Williams' soundtrack is as wonderful as the first one. Just make sure you don't listen to the CD while driving. XD One scene I wished they kept in the film was when the baby rex was captured. The reason why the infant was wailing from its leg being broken was because Peter Ludlow (John Hammond's nephew aka "pretentious prick") was drunk and tripped over the infant's leg and, I believe, fell on it. Roland Tempo (Pete Postlethwaite) then gets ticked off because of it. The film as it stands makes the audience assume Roland or Ajay broke the infant's leg.

[@terrylandess6072]

Running and Screaming. Yes. I believe you can easily list these films in chronological order by the number of screams per film. By the time we get to the Jurassic Worlds, Screams replace 1/2 the script.

The books always emphasized the classic trope of "mans arrogance vs. nature" and how it's inevitable to be beaten by nature. This movie translated that tone really well.

Good to hear that theme was present in the books. We felt like that “lesson” was present throughout the entire film. Well done!

[@randeecarreno4289]

Great reaction you two! 😊 Love seeing Jeff Goldblum headlining this movie. And Julianne Moore is a great addition to the cast. I keep forgetting that Vince Vaughan is in this one. LOL! The young actress that plays Ian Malcolm's daughter in this movie is great. And I loved the cameo appearances by the two kids from the first movie in the beginning when Malcolm visits Hammond. Something that I had forgotten to mention in the comments for the first movie, is that in the book the character of Ian Malcolm was supposed to have died from his injuries. Really glad they didn't take that route for the movies. He's one of my favorite characters in the whole Park/World series. Up next is "Jurassic Park 3". Looking forward to the next reaction. 😊

16:28 Basically Sarahs Best moment 😂 20:23 This moment always let me feel tears in my eyes 28:37 Creepy with the silent and just rain Getting lost in the woods is scary but getting lost in the woods on a Island with Dinosaurs is differently scary! 42:47 This is a moment where you as viewer also try to be silent! Robert Bakker: Scared by a Tiny snake on a Island full of dangerous Dinosaurs AJ: "Don´t go into the long Grass!" Also AJ: Goes in the long grass 51:35 It´s so a good creepy scene! I love the fact that they Used a Model Ship for the smashing the dock scene (You can see at the Limousine). I still don´t know how Buck ate the Crew in the Steering room! 56:34 Fun Fact: That´s David Koepp, the Script Writer of JP and TLW, playing the "Unlucky Bastard"! 59:55 Out of all Pteranodon Designs in the franchise, this is the Most realistic one!

JP1 is ground breaking. JP2 was brilliant - and there's an official follow up outside the movies - Trespasser, the video game from 1998. It was an unmitigated disaster but was also a groundbreaking game, made by Dreamworks (with a little help from Spielberg) Y'all should totally take a peek at a let's play or longplay of it. Unfortunately, it needed a lot more time in dev and the publisher (good old EA) wanted it out the door asap. It just happened to coincide with the release of a little game called 'Half Life'.... It has narration by Richard Attenborough recorded specifically for the game.

I really don't like World because every single character is unlikable. One of the reasons Park works is that it gets you invested in almost everyone. And in the middle the whole movie stops in its tracks for five minutes to just divulge in nostalgia for Park, and I dislike desperate fan pandering. I didn't even watch JP3 because it seemed to be more of the same, so I might be a bit harsh. But World was a major disappointment, since I actually thought the premise was interesting.
