JURASSIC PARK (1993) Dir. Steven Spielberg

[tsibeyantiger]

You know what I love about Jurassic World? That it makes the "We won't make the same mistakes again- No, this time you're making totally new ones" quote entirely come true. Jurassic Park failed because they put dangerous animals they hardly knew anything about in a theme park setting and thought they could control them- and then, surprised pikachu face, it turned out they couldn't. But the point is, they actually learned from it. In Jurassic World, they knew more about the animals, their wants and needs, their natural behaviour, and designed the park around it. They didn't try to control the animals in situations where they couldn't, and focused on avoiding these situations and keeping everything in a setting where they actually COULD keep them under control. And it worked AMAZINGLY WELL. While Jurassic Park already failed when it was still under construction, Jurassic World opened its gates for the public. Hell, they were able to allow people to go canoeing next to sauropodes without having a single accident. The park was open for a long time and was incredibly successful. And then, they decided to create a new spectacular dinosaur just out of pure spite. They didn't know what kind of animal they were creating, and neither they cared. And then, shocker!, said animal destroyed Jurassic World because no one could predict how it would behave.

Jurassic Park is not a series about the dangers of bioengineering. It is a series about how capitalist greed turns bioengineering into a catastrophe.

Watching Jurassic Park as a kid and the main takeaway understandably being wow!! dinosaurs :)) vs reading the book as an adult where it’s more along the lines of… John Hammond get in the submarine. The dinosaurs have literally already escaped the island and are running amok killing local infants before the main cast even gets there and presumably also nuking the local ecosystem. The raptors have killed multiple workmen and have a taste for human blood. He set up shop in Costa Rica so he could skirt around various regulations and also because he doesn’t view the locals as real people worthy of not being eaten by dinosaurs. He’s not only brought the dinosaurs back from the dead, he’s planning to immediately monetize this by exposing the public to newly zombified wild animals that the most accredited scientists have incredibly limited knowledge on. He invited his own grandchildren to an island populated by undead carnivores just so he could be like see! Would I invite my own grandchildren to skulldeath island if it was dangerous? Checkmate liberals! But that’s exactly what he did!! He refuses to breed dinosaurs that won’t eat the guests even though they could literally do that because he wants the experience to be authentic or something?! Ian Malcolm’s over here prattling on about chaos theory and it’s like I’m good man! I do not need mathematics to tell you this is going to end badly! Hammond is the most realistic depiction of a real life billionaire, utterly unconcerned with and unappreciative of the world he actually lives in because it doesn’t allow him to play toys with the basic tenants of life and death, so instead of putting his money toward bettering the real world he tries to tear it up by the roots and build one perfectly tailored to his own preferences. John Hammond kys!!

Jurassic Park

Watching the movie:

Reading the book:

To anyone who hasn’t read the book, it is  genuinely horrifying. It’s great.

Is there any kind of active Jurassic park/world fandom on here? I feel like there should be and I've seen some good fanart but im not really seeing any blogs that are kinda centered around it like with other fandoms. If that is you, please step forward, i am fixating all alone. This is like the tumblr equivalent of me sending out smoke signals here

Jurassic World + Disabilities and Limb Difference

[mossiestpiglet]

The way Hammond says “Its our last chance at redemption” (emphasis added) to Ian Malcolm is so insidious. What does Ian of all people need redemption for in relation to the park? All he did last time was get seriously injured and traumatized for life. But Hammond loves trying to the shift the narrative from something he/InGen did to Ian and the others to something they all did and are responsible for together.

So I’m reading Jurassic Park for the first time and … the movie was perfectly casted oh my god. I can’t help but picture them all when I read because when I tell you they captured the energy so well, I mean it.

Also something about Alan and Ellie meeting Ian and “we’re a trio now. Besties forever” the second they meet is iconic. The squad ever actually.

Image description: First frame is of Dr. Alan Grant (Jurassic Park) is in the foreground with John Hammond looking toward him with big uwu eyes. The second frame is Dr. Alan Grant, head turned with a serious look toward Hammond. Speech bubble reads, Mr. Hammond, after careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park. John Hammond is now sitting slumped in a chair with tears streaming down his face drawn in blue over the image.

It honestly made me cackle way more than it should have, but here we are. The original post is on twitter.

y’all, hear me out..

so after they are done with the whole jurassic world franchise, imagine a different movie created that finally goes by the name of “michael crichton’s: jurassic park”

now, i’m not saying a remake of the original film. no. i’m talking about a full blown novel accurate version of the real: jurassic park.

the novel is not exactly 100% similar to the movie. not at all. this book was far gorier and classified as a horror, whereas the actual movie was viewed by yes, adults. but also younger audiences.

i mean, imagine getting to see a novel accurate version of dennis nedry’s death, or the poor baby who was killed by the compys. even henry wu being eaten alive by velociraptors.

it would be brutal, but damn.. i’d love to see that shit..
