- Hidden on another Island off the coast of Costa Rica, something has survived...
In this video we cover the dinosaurs found on Isla Sorna in the sequel to Jurassic Park 'The Lost World'. This video covers all the animals seen in both pieces of media, and how they influenced the story overall.
This is my longest video to date, so I hope you all enjoy!
I do not own any of the images/clips/music used in this video.
“DON’T GO INTO THE LONG GRASS! NOT INTO THE LONG GRASSS” lives in my head rent free.
It's sad Ajay didn't just say "nope, you guys wanna die go right ahead, I'm taking the scenic route"
To the point that I second guess tall grass. I'll be walking in the woods or something and come to a field and be like "wonder what's hiding in here"
Same ahahaha
Everyone knows it's not safe to enter tall grass without a Pokemon
Ajay should have just been like “naw f this im outta here screw you idiots”
The Camouflaging Carnotaurs were always my favourite from the novel there’s just something scary about a big predatory dinosaur having the ability to camouflage and the fact that the T-Rexes are smart enough to not trespass upon their territory makes them even more scary.
Also fun fact Mamenchisaurus was originally going to come back for Dominion but got replaced with Dreadnoughtus.
The carnos in Lost World are the best representation of how utterly alien the dinosaurs in JP can be. They're not natural animals, these are genetically engineered abominations created in test tubes wearing the skin of dinosaurs.
@@kaminsod4077 well yeah they’re not all palaeo-accurate because they had to fill in the gaps of the DNA with modern animal DNA.
For sure! Imagine some 1985s Predator stuff but with a Dinosaur, you can't go wrong there.
i misremembered them as being Iguanodons (it's been a while since i read the book).
whoever they were, i don't recall seeing them on screen (it's been a while since i saw the movie).
and before youse guys point out that of course i wouldn't've seen a camouflaged animal, i'll see myself out.
Yeah 👀
I like Malcolm's theory in the book that the raptor's behaviour stems from them not having learned their the proper behaviour from their parents as they had none.
His hypothesis.
@@randallbesch2424 I was speaking colloquially
@@randallbesch2424🤓
Fatherless behavior.

You can argue that Dieter is having mild paralyzing effects and dizziness.
The first falling and the bites alone (without being venomous) are not enough to wear down that much, especially an experimented Hunter. The second time he feels, you can see he is agitated and walking with difficulty it looks like he can't stand anymore.
When he tries to pass the wooden log after the second attack, you can see the legs shaking and moving with more difficulty.
Also, The scene plays a lot like Hammond's dead in the book, where they describe the effects of several bites in detail.
Good eye. Also when he makes it to the stream and starts throwing stuff at the pursuing compies, he's completely missing the camera / dinosaurs.
Right? They definitely show effects of venom.
@@ExtremeMadnessX Yeaah!, I feel that's why the first two movies are different from the sequels, there is a lot of storytelling through little details in the scenes. Spielberg has a special talent in that sense, the making of, the movie: Close Encounters of the Third Kind... It's simply undeniable the level of thought and passion given to that project, recommended especially if you like Aliens and UFOs.
Cheers!
Exactly! Like yeah he tumbled down a hill but after the first attack he was mostly fine and walking normal. Then we cut to Roland and his group starting to move. The next scene we see, Dieter is stumbling and muttering to himself. We know in the first book the venom’s effects are not instantaneous because Hammond had kept the compies at bat for sometime before he started to feel the effects. By the second attack Dieter is pretty much starting to feel it and gets more venom to the point where the full effects of the first attack and the oncoming wave of the second attack are starting. Needless to say, you’re absolutely right, the compies have been venomous since their introduction in films!
Also him losing a sense of direction and being unable to properly orient himself to run towards his friends. Basically, his foggy mind caused him to get lost as well.
It’ll always be funny to me how the Lost World arcade game was more faithful to the novel with regards to the general situations and dinosaur encounters (we got robbed of the chameleon Carnotaurus man).
I remember reading somewhere that while Spielberg requested Crichton write the sequel, David Koepp butted in and convinced Spielberg to go with his own idea [which is the movie we got]
That...bugged the hell out of me. But the movie came out fine, I guess. Apart from how a lot of the chaos was started by our Designated Heroes.
@@ravensthatflywiththenightm7319 if that’s the case I kinda wish we had gotten something that was a more even balance. I like the film but something always felt, dare I say, discombobulated while watching it.
@@alexkogan9755 I was particularly baffled how completely different they were. I mean granted before Peter Jackson's LOTR, it was "normal" for directors to "throw their junk in" and make their movie completely different from the book, but Spielberg specifically requested for this book to be made and then he just tossed it aside in favor of what was essentially David Koepp's fanfiction.
@@ravensthatflywiththenightm7319 Yup. It’s infuriating in hindsight.
Dude I love the arcade game! Was playing it yesterday at an amusement park. One of the best arcade games of all time.
Sarah's camera didn't malfunction in the movie in front of the baby stegosaurus. She just used up all the film in it and the camera just rewinded it all into the cartridge. The sound is the motor of the rewinder.
I'm not a zookeeper but as an arab eating raw lamb is dangerous. Growing up I was taught that you need to intimately know the people preparing your lamb whether it be butchers or restaurant workers/owners, because eating raw lamb that has been prepare or processed with materials not properly cleaned can make you incredibly sick or even kill you. In fact, it's why we are fed raw lamb when we're very young (at least in my family) so that we are used to the bacteria found in raw lamb.
Very interesting, thank you!
Very interesting
That can apply to any type of raw food, meat or plant
@@ejscorp Isn't pork in particular really bad?
@@ejscorp yes and no some meats are worse to do that than others. Pork and lamb I think have the worst effects I think, but also my point would still stand.
A friend at work that remembered when it was initially released joked that the "something has survived" tagline for the book wasnt about dinosaurs, it was about the presumed dead Malcolm following the first novel lol
A correction I would make is that you mentioned Roland and Ajay broke the infants leg when technically it was a Drunk Peter Ludlow in a lost deleted picture, making his death more poetic and a parallel to Dodgson's death.
Very true. Another deleted scene that’s really cool is the bar scene with Roland.
@@abiezerEscude At least that on is available to find.
@@rhinoxsaurus3560 true.
Also Sarah’s camera does not malfunction; the film rewinds because it is finished. Usually very convenient, but not when you’re trying not to spook Stegosaurus.
Concerning the Ornitholestes, Levine admits he did not have time to properly ID it, and I was under the impression it might actually have been a young Carnotaurus. Note that Levine was able to get a skin sample and had it sent to Malcolm. The vet he contacted said the skin could change color. Therefore it might have been a Carnotaurus. Unless Crichton was implying there were other dinosaurs that can camouflage like an octopus. 🦖
You are correct, I had completely forgotten! While I agree that it very well could be a young Carno, I think it's worth noting that in the first novel, some of the wild velociraptors could also shift colors, though not to the same extent the Carnos could
@@TheDinoFax Oh yeah! I forgot about Clarence!
Both of you are geeking out like crazy! I’m with my people! 🎉
I was always partial to thinking it was a velociraptor. From the books we know they were very violent towards one another, so I always figured the huge gash on the animal's leg was from another velociraptor during a frenzy or some other such thing. Not to mention some raptors were mentioned to be able to camouflage, although it's a far cry from the camouflage that the carnotaurs were capable of.
@@Mikah-tt2bl Now that you mention it there's a theory going around DA about how the raptors that can change color are males.
Although if the carcass was a raptor, why didn't Levine notice the large claw, and why didn't he make note of it later when the raptors were chasing him around the island?
Still, interesting take. 🦖
I’m glad someone else is a fan of The Lost World. It’s effortlessly the best JP sequel til this day. I remember my folks taking me to see it at age 7! That was a such a great time to be a Jurassic Park fan! Back when the dinosaurs were depicted as threatening as much as they were inspiring.
I've always preferred the books over the movies. I just liked more dinosaurs and more gory horror in my fiction. Thanks to the first book, Dilophosaurus will always be my favorite, and while I'm disappointed they never returned in the sequel, I like to think the unnamed carnivore Sarah encountered on the Sorna river was a Dilophosaur, much as the "monkeys" that Eddie thought he heard were Microceratops or Othnielia.
But within the context of the second book's identified dinosaurs, Carnotaurus was definitely my favorite, and to this day it's a very close second to Dilophosaurus.
Same but watching dinosaurs is always a good time.
Haven't read the books nor have any interest in reading them but seeing them on the big screen was definitely a game-changer. I think I'm just a visual person but seeing a T-rex versus reading about one it was never even close to me.
@@goldman77700 Tyrannosaurs have featured in movies since 1918. Hardly a game-changer.
@@ravensthatflywiththenightm7319 I meant in general. I was just using the T. rex as an example. A new generation of paleontologists grew up in these films. So on they'll be taking the reins and leading the pack. Aptly called the "Jurassic Park" generation. So no it definitely was a game-changer.
@@goldman77700 Ah! I understand now. 🦖
I think the reason that the dinos were able to “breed” on Isla Sorna is because that they were made to be that way. I mean, sure it wouldnt make much sense since they would have to go out and later recapture the dinos, but a dino that is bread in the wild probably has a higher survival rate than the factory where prions were rampant.
Yup. It was stated in the book actually, that because of the illness, and other reasons that was killing the dinosaurs they decided to let them loose. That was partly an afterthought of an explanation of why Hammond ended up building the park on Nublar instead of Sorna. Releasing them helped them solve the illnesses and animals dying and also they could flourish on their own. It wasn't stated, but I do think that they made males and females as well on the original park. Why wouldn't they? The gender selectivity and hormonal control was probably an afterthought.
They were bred to be both male and female because it was cheaper to have the dinosaurs replace themselves the dx came about because of a mistake made when feeding I believe the allosaurus by giving them sheep which ending up creating the prion disease which would spread to the rest of the island population
Something interesting to note about the film is that not only was Pteranodon supposed to have a larger role of attacking helicopters getting the survivors off the island, it would have beat the rest of the scientific community and been ground breaking for pterosaurs. The prop made for it had the protofeathers that we know pterosaurs had. So if this appeared in the film, not only would it be the best Pteranodon design in the series, but the most accurate Pteranodon on film at that point in history
It can be argued that Dieter was in fact feeling the effects of the venom due to how right before he gets killed he seems disoriented and can be heard wheezing as he climbs over the log.
Edit: it was actually Ludlow that broke the infant T-Rex’s leg. There’s a deleted scene where he gets drunk and falls on it
The lost world’s scenery is outright beautiful, and I don’t think it gets the recognition it deserves
One thing i noticed when watching Jurassic World Dominion was not only the more obvious stripe down the parasaur's back, but they also appeared to be much smaller and there were some that even had colors and patterns similar to Okapis
For most book adaptations, I’d usually berate them for being too different, but the Lost World novel and movie are so vastly different that becomes almost impossible. Because of this fact, I like both of them for different reasons. If I had to criticize the novel for one thing, it’s that, like in Jurassic Park, Ian and Thorne tend to monologue quite a bit, which puts a drag on the action. My biggest issue with the movie would probably be Kelly’s brief encounter with the raptor.
Movies are another medium.
This is gonna be a big premiere
Yes
Yep
Yeh
yeh boy
No
Even with the changes from the book the movie was still really dark. I remember seeing the both Jurrasic Park and the Lost World in the theater with my parents as a kid and I clearly remember preferring the Lost World alot more. The kills are way more brutal and there's alot more dinosaur attacks.
As a kid I loved how they brought the T-Rex back to the States. How it's just strolling the neighborhood and the kid gets his mom and dad 🤣 I loved Lost World. It was a darker film for sure.
When it comes to the DX disease in TLW novel I don’t think it has anything to do with increased aggression directly. At one point in the novel the characters have a relatively long conversation about the dinosaur population numbers. I remember Sarah Harding drew on her experiences with African prey-predator populations.
As I remember it, they discussed the size of the island compared to how many animals there were. There were too many. There was a high population of herbivores and many of them were quite large, with the amount of food they would’ve needed there was still no evidence of food shortage anywhere and that should not have been the case. I could be wrong but I also remember them saying that as big as some of the herbivore species were, they all seemed a little undersized for what should’ve been expected. In addition, even though the number of herbivores was high, it still should not have been enough to support the islands very high population of different carnivores. The ratio of prey-to-predator should’ve been something like 10-1 if not much higher and yet it didn’t appear to be anywhere near that. This is where the DX came in: it caused an artificially high death rate across most of the island because it was working it’s way through the entire food chain. Overpopulation of herbivores hadn’t become a problem because if the predators didn’t get them, the DX would past a certain (relatively) young age. At the other end of the food chain, the various predator populations were also kept in check by the DX past a certain age.
This is where the raptor’s intelligence was a blessing but also a curse for them. As I remember it and how I understood it in the novel, was that the other animals both herbivores and predators alike did ok in their social structures because they were mostly simple, instinct driven relationships. They coordinated defensively, travelled in herds, cared for young and some predators hunted as paired mates, but it was all relatively simple, instinct driven behaviours (with a few exceptions like the Triceratops defensive circle etc). I believe the idea with the raptors was that relative to their intelligence, their social structure was nowhere near where it should have been. It should’ve been far beyond the level of just instinct driven behaviours, but also many different learned behaviours/structures that can only be learned and passed down over generations. For their level of intelligence it was extremely vicious, chaotic and undeveloped. The premature deaths caused by the DX didn’t allow them to age/mature and develop what should have been an extremely advanced social structure so they always were living in a state of highly intelligent chaos. They had the ability to coordinate hunts and problem solve, but not the longevity to establish the highly complex social structure that would’ve been more complicated than any other dinosaur on the island. Again, as I understood it - the raptors intelligence should have made them capable of legitimate language (like dolphins or whales) but they didn’t live long enough to create it together and pass it down to the younger generation. They hunted as a pack because they were smart enough to know they could hunt more effectively together and obviously had an instinct to mate and reproduce etc., but as soon as they made a kill it was every raptor for his/her self. They were a population of very young, super smart and frustrated predators that had no real family structure because it was something that took a long time to build and their environment simply didn’t allow for it to happen.
TLDR - in the novel the DX disease allowed the island to exist as it did but likely would lead to its eventual doom and the raptors were tragically too smart for their own lifespan.
Palpatine meme
Sorry I didn't read all that but idk, the raptors do be a bit crazy
@@Casual_guy1234 they is crazy yo
And their brains being eaten by the prion disease.
Nicely written (typed out), thanks for sharing. Ngl I'm now prompted to re-read the novels haha
Eddie is always the one that doesn't deserve to die but he does, and he does it saving his friends
Just a side note. The reason for the catch vehicles looking the way they do is that there was toys made that looked like that from the release of the first movie. The toys were released a few months before the movie was released.
I remember being a kid walking in to kb toys and seeing it just over loaded with new dinosaur stuff ... It was awesome and all the dinosaur stuff was from something called Jurassic Park.
Which was very very cool because there was a read along book ( that had some of its audio used in first movie ) .... That was about a Jurassic Park. Btw for those too young to know read along books were a children's book usually less than 30 pages that had an included audio tape. The tape had a narrator who would read the text while you would look at the pictures as each set of pages was read and finished a sound would be played to signal you to turn the page. Often these were found at thrift stores and were totally awesome.
35:32 I miss that show. It was my weekly dose of dinosaur media after the two JP movies and was one of my early inspirations to become a writer. And then I found out that not only was it cancelled, but the showrunners actually had plans for the ending, and it's sad they never got around to making that ending.
3:47 since I was like 5-6 years old ,my dad used to have This bond with the raven . that was kept in a large cage he used to go up to the cage despite the zoo said to back up some but the raven used to hop up and down on its perch and put it beak through the bars and my dad would pet him he would attack other people who tried the same but when my dad came back to the aviary exhibit she would caw so happily , tho my dad went to prison for so long the bird still remembers him and gets so happy it was like as if the bird was having a breakdown on seeing someone he loved many years and years later the way he cawed that bird was so human like (sadly the crow passed away not that long ago in the cape may zoo ) but I wanna say is you are spot on with memory
The thing about ground sheep is a reference to how the BSE outbreak started in the UK - cows were fed meat and bone meal from ground sheep infected with scrapie, and thus got the the prions, causing them to develop BSE.
After that, feeding ground meat to animals was forbidden.
The DX-affected Raptors literally said " We are crazy, not foolish.".
Not sure if someone already said it, but when it comes to the Parasaur in the film, they didnt just yank it down, as that wouldn't be possible with the amount of men they had, rather it was a combination of pulling down on the neck while another group of men pulled the Parasaur's leg out from under it, which caused it to fall
I always loved The Lost World because it portrays the dinosaurs more like animals.
Ah, I love the Lost World, both the movie and the book (and most of its video games!). This is going to be a fun watch!
I love how artists add chameleon features to the carnotaurus as an implication that they were made using chameleon dna.
So far, this has to be one of my favorite videos from your channel, I would love it (even if it’s been done to death) if you made a Walking With Dinosaurs video, maybe showing the accuracies and inaccuracies
I don't know if anyone else said it, but the reason for the cage under the high hide was to serve the same purpose as a shark cage; a person goes inside for safety to keep dangerous critters from hurting/killing them.
When you look from a distance you'll notice that several scenes from the original JP book find their way into JP2 and 3... Lost World Compy pack attacking someone, T-Rex searching through waterfall using his tongue to find prey... In JP3 The Aviary Scene. These were all in the first book!
I always say I want a Jurassic park tv show that is 1 season that’s fateful to the book. It’s so different to movie it be worth it.
I just ordered the novel because of you
I just got mine's today, with the first novel.( the book).
But I have Jurassic Park 3 Novel 👀 for free online
I love it! Thank you so much for covering this!
Cool seeing my commission of George Baselton's demise from Chris Trefz featured in this great video. Nice to have comprehensive breakdowns of the dinos from book to film in the JP series.
I really truly love how the movies hold most of the core themes of the books, while also changing aspects of it to tell the story in a new way, with some new themes and messages. Perfect way to do an adaptation, honestly. Allows both versions to exist in a way where both have something to offer that's different, meaning you can enjoy both for different reasons (or have a preference) without destroying the legacy of the original. Its fun talking about how they executed similar themes in different ways, and how the different themes play into their versions (or which themes were more heightened). It also allows fun compare and contrast for when similar scenes/moments happen, but in slightly different ways.
Great video man I’ve been waiting for this after how good the first one was, you’re one of my favorite Jurassic franchise UA-camrs because you’re one of the few who makes a lot of content on the novels which hold a place in my heart. Keep up the good work man you deserve more recognition and followers
This book had so many scenes that stick so powerfully in my memory... maybe I'll have to hunt down a copy and read it again. I used to read and reread it so often I got to the point where I could get through it in about 4 or 5 hours.
Thank you for this!
Are you planning to compare the plots and characters as well?
Indeed I am
Cool
This was just incredibly awesome, am loving this series
oh, hell yes... been waiting on this, thank you bro, love u
I don’t think Sarah’s camera malfunctions. I think she gets to the end of the roll of film and it does something mechanical (perhaps to roll the film up for swapping out?).
That's what I always thought, too.
Idc what anyone says that raptor enjoying his lil candy bar is the cutest detail ever lmfao 😂
Great video. It’s so thrilling hearing about the Lost World book. It’s been a few years since I’ve read it. Maybe it’s time I pick it up again!
The most unrealistic part is the united states military not immediately killing the tyrannosaurs.
I freakin loved the second one too, Dino Man. I had a bunch of the toys from thr movies, my brother and I did, mostly from the second movie but some from the fist one too, and now his sons play with them among all their other JP toys and such. Just really cool to see I suppose.
I always thought that Dieter was poisoned, cause he seemed really outta breath and was struggling to stay on his feet while being chased by them.
Narcotized is the word.
It was like a shark cage. In case someone was on the ground and a dinosaur came around they could lock themselves in.
Watched some of the videos you have on the first movie. Made me re-read the books and geek out over the little details.
I always say, there are 1,5 good "Jurassic Park" movies (...and books): Thats the first, a masterpiece in my top 3 movies of all time and half of "Lost World"!👍
This was an awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to make it. Also, in the second Jurassic Park film when Dieter Stark was attacked by the compys, I think he did in fact show signs of being affected by their venom. Whether or not it was intentional, I always noticed how his breathing sounds heavier, and he seems to have a harder time standing up, he stumbles and even falls a couple times. I think by the time he climbed over that log, the venom made it so that he was somewhat paralyzed, and that’s how the compys were able to eat him with little resistance.
the raptors were chaotic and savage due to them being the most affected by dx. the site of their nest was actually why they were all infected to begin with
We don’t see Dieter long enough to know if the bites affected him. Movies have made people think these effects are instant. Venom can take hours to affect a creature, especially a larger creature.
I honestly liked the novel a bit better than the movie, however both are magnificent! While reading the novel that states that the jeeps are custom built safari type vehicles, I couldn’t help but wonder why they didn’t opt for a hard top.
Also one of the attacks that sparked the plot in the novel of Jurassic park the first one, it was the baby’s death
Going to the order the Lost world book soon.
Can't what to read about the Carnotaurus.
AMAZING VIDEO TODAY.
Hope you have a great day🦖👍
You will not be disappointed
In the Galápagos islands the animals havent learned to fear humans, although youre not permitted to touch them and this keeps it that way. I went there in 2008, it was absolutely beautiful
Loved the last video you made about Jurassic park movie vs book
The novel sounds like a way more interesting watch and would absolutely have been more terrifying.
As a kid who was a Dinosaur fan first, it was my favorite because it had so many different dinosaurs.
"The one with a Pompadour, Elvis!" *-Roland Tembo.* 17:52
I've been waiting for this! Delivered greatly and properly.
you can hear the frustration in that line
I would love a video of you comparing The Isle's dinosaurs to their real-life counterparts.
This is fire
TheDinoFax, I think you should do a video or series of shorts about the Jurassic Park 4 concepts. I think it would be pretty cool.
hi i love your videos and the books are so violent gosh i love the mask you were and also isla sorna is a test run as well
The velociraptors have always and will always be my favorite dinosaurs
Just found your channel. Instant sub. Thank you for your work
Bro put a Game of thrones reference into a jurassic movie. My guy earned himself a subscribe.
I'd have to go back and rewatch Camp Cretaceous. Because I don't recall them saying Compy's had venom. One of the canpers references the original novel by saying she thought Hanmond was kiled by Compys. To which Darius replies "Where'd you hear that?". Then she replies "Read it somewhere."
Don't recall them saying in CC that the movie compys have venom. That trait I'm fairly certain is book exclusive.
Did you watch the final season? Not only do they say the Compy's have venom, but they also show someone being killed by the Compy's after the venom numbed their leg and other parts of their body.
@@TheDinoFaxI didn't watch season 5, but I hope it was Cash or whatever that pasty incel's name was. God I hated him in season 4, so death by compy sounds great.
@@monstersandmachines Cash gets killed by Velociraptors in the final season, after his control chips fail. The person who gets killed by compys is a mercenary hired by Dodgson.
@@TheDinoFax It is...acceptable!
8:45 Sara's camera didn't malfunction. It was a film camera with an auto rewind function. Once a film camera took its last frame on the roll, you had to wind the film either manually or if the camera had the feature it would auto wind all the exposed film back into the canister. This way you could take the roll out and send to be developed without exposing the film. The camera in the film was a expensive camera for the day and had an auto wind function that just happened to be pretty loud and spooked the stegos.
I just rewatched the Lost World on the same day you uploaded this video. What a weird coincidence.
I love the way at the end of tlw movie the female rex roars at the male like shes saying "where the hell were you!?)
I knew this video was going to be long because the book is so different. I'm glad they kept the trailer going over the cliff though.
I love the motorcycle chase scene in the book and how they kinda do that in Jurassic World.
I give your review a 9/10 I just finished rereading the lost world the other day (for about the tenth time) you missed a few minor MINOR details bit you did a great job summarizing it.
What's interesting about dinosaurs to me. Is just how little we actually know. Like we get an idea out of fossils of body plan. But no idea if that is truly what it would look like. A good idea of this is a book or video I remember that went over how an alien might interpret an animal currently living in our time bu their skeletons. You realize the bones tell maybe 30 percent of the story.
It's plausible some dinosaurs were venomous, capable of camouflage, who knows what else.
One of the best Jurassic park movies
Awesome video!
Yes indeed, that odd vehicle was made to sell toys and Kenner nailed it, but it was just once so chill
The idea of a large predator with cameleon level camouflage is awesome.
And a night hunter. The BioSyn agents had fun doing that out of Wu's sight.
I like that they added illnesses to the second one, it's seriously interesting
The Lost World Jurassic Park is more adaptation of Conan Doyle novel or remake of 1920s movie then actual adaptation of Michael Crichton novel.
Read this book in 2020. Love it so much!
Bro is AMAZING
Finaly somthing to watch
Great video!
My only problem with the adaptation process was cutting out Jack Throne. Best character in the book! Shame we never got to see him in the movie
Yeah, it would have made the movie not get destroyed by critics
The carnotaurus camofage is so cool and it also DOES work during the day its just better at night and they have a hard time adjusting to sudden light
I really need to read those books again. I don't remember a single thing from the your description of the events in the books. However, I remember clearly the events in the movies.
14:39 It's the Snagger! Roland calls for it on the radio, "Snagger, Friar Tuck's on the loose!" It could have been some guys last name, but a trading card referes to it as the Snagger. What's interesting is the toy was just called "Humvee Capture Vehicle." I owned the toy and it was one of my favorites.
Dieter Stark was also an H addict. He had a bag fall out when he left the group. Perhaps the numbing venom had a diminshed effect because of this
I love The Lost World movie…right up until they leave the island where it all falls apart.
They deleted the scene of the raptors sneaking onto the cargo ship so the crew deaths make zero sense. Also, they’re evacuated via a helicopter. That helicopter then proceeds to take them all the way from Costa Rica to San Diego? Why not just get everyone to a hospital on the mainland and fly them back via airplane? Nope. Picks them up and for some reason drops everyone off directly at the port for their big media event. Speaking of which, the cargo ship pulls in the same night they land in San Diego despite the fact that is would take a cargo ship a few days to make it that far.
Anyway, great video.
There actually isn't one, that's just concept art of nick in the worker village
yooooooo this gonna be lit
Ur an imposter
Good video dude
I remember reading the lost world book and being hopeful that eddy was gunna make it out alive. I liked him a lot in the movie and even more so In the book. Reading his gruesome death really made me sad.
Incredibly minor note but Gallimimus is technically in the novel as well. When Malcolm, Eddie, and Doc Thorne are going through the abandoned labs, Malcolm reads a printed report about a Gallimimus that was showing signs of the prion disease. So they were apparently on the novel Sorna at some point despite never physically appearing. My guess is Crichton just randomly threw the name in due to the appearance in the first film. 🤷♂️ Anyway, nice video!
Hey i love your vids,been a dino nut for longer than i can remember, but i thought id point out that theres a fourth appearance for compies when ludlow gives the san diago speech in the trapper camp
I absolutely love this movie. The second one is the most fun!
