Synopsis: John Hammond, an entrepreneur, opens a wildlife park containing cloned dinosaurs. However, a breakdown of the island's security system causes the creatures to escape and bring about chaos. - Розваги
About time I watched this one right?
Damn right. I had to check to make sure it wasn't a reupload. Could have sworn you did it already
My mom showed me this when i was 7 and i unexpectedly LOVED the series. Even the new series I'll watch for nostalgia 😅
@@sup3776 is it just me or am I really happy he mentioned ark because I'm a big ark fan
Hi seb your my favourite UA-camr
this is the best jurassic film ever ! you have to watch the whole series..
"to be fair that CGI is not awful for the time" ..... dude, you have no IDEA... the CGI in this film was AMAZING for the time... nothing else even remotely comparable had been seen before. It was completely mind blowing.
Except when u can see some guys hand in the background moving the dinosaurs tail lol but a party from that the cgi was incredible for the time 😭😂
I second that statement. This film was 1 of a few that birthed CGI as we know it. There’s someone good documentaries out there explaining it.
@@rubycheese6976 Well those were practical shots then and not CGI.
@@dh-c1717 yeah i watched some behind the scenes about it, the CGI people in charge of the dinosaur walking animations really did the unimaginable here, they were making the animations under the radar and then totally surprised the executives with it. They were supposed to use stop-motion for the dino animations but the CGI team went above and beyond with what they had
Probably because it's practical effects not CGI lol.
Interesting fact: the John Hamond character (who thought he could control nature) was played by the late director, producer and actor Richard Attenborough. Who in real life was the older brother to English broadcaster, biologist, natural historian and author David Attenborough. Whose life's work has been to show we need to preserve nature.
holy shit i didnt know that
Richard Attenborough was also in The Great Escape another good film also staring Steve McQueen many famous long departed Actors
That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing
hammond*
@@Ravenxback my bad. Like I always say, spellings hard and I'm pretty.
"I imagine the plot is gonna be like one of them gets loose."
"One of them."
I laughed.
Still the movie version is tamed, in the book there were like 30 raptors who escaped and two t-rex and not only that many raptors and compys escaped to mainland and started living in deep forest
The sound department went above and beyond to create the dino noises. They recorded everything from razors to cats to even themselves and experimented with pitching and stuff like that to make it sound believable, real and unrecognizable. This is absolutely one of those iconic movies that heavily influenced and changed the industry and pop culture.
Don’t forget the raptor sounds that are just turtles having sex.
Also all the carnivorous dinosaurs' movements look heavily cat-inspired: the way the head moves when they study things, the pouncing, the raptors jumping onto stuff.
@@alistaircraig7849 There's all sorts of stuff in there, geese, tortoises, snakes. The rex is clearly a bull elephant and a lion.
The new movies have terrible sound desig for be Dino’s. In this one you can really hear them as if they are thinking and changes in emotion , exerting extra force when moving etc. the newer ones just use the same sounds a lot and resample old noises.
Like in the 2nd Jurassic world where the trex Wakes up in the truck and almost bites Chris’s Pratt, it’s the same ol trex roar used before many times. They should have given it a different sound all together but lazily threw in the same roar
The soundtrack is hard because it was composed by the great John Williams. You may know him from such small, independent works like Star Wars and Indiana Jones. He's amazing.
Or Harry Potter for that matter.
Don't forget Jaws.
@@dipsydoodle7988 or ET. Or the Schindler's List. There's a famous quote by Steven Spielberg that goes "Without John Williams bikes don't fly, nor do brooms in Quidditch matches, nor do men in red capes. There is no force. Dinousaus do not walk the earth. We do not wonder. We do not weep, we do not believe".
@@darkzer0670 yes, I am well aware.
"You may know him from such..." Love it.
The fact that your brain goes to the word "velociraptor" immediately just shows how influential this film was.
Quite! The sort of irony being that they're deinonychus.
Also when he referenced the Dilophosaurus from ARK and spitting venom. That's another of the inaccuracies in a dino that JP made popular but he "knew" that's what they did because they were referencing this movie.
In a bad way too considering real velociraptors were closer in size to chickens than the predators in this film.
That dinosaur was not even half the size of what they put in the movie .. look up how big velociraptor really was
@@SevenEllen Pretty sure they're Utahraptors. About the only thing we can agree on is that they're not Velociraptors.
When this was released, and still even today, I feel like I’ve seen real dinosaurs. That long shot at the watering lake in the beginning with all of the different types drinking and eating… it was/is breathtaking! I was in awe!
The Lost World may not have been as good, but it had some incredible scenes. The one where Ingen is chasing after the dinosaurs was pretty awesome.
People also tend to forget that TV screens weren't flatscreen plasma HD back then, like they are now. The screens had less clarity, which made the CGI blend in with the rest of the scenery much much better. It all looked completely real to me when I saw it back then (except the sick, crapping dino, cause the movements were unnaturally fluid, but that wasn't CGI xP).
My home island is where they filmed most of this franchise (Kauaʻi) & lemme tell you, it was insane to see areas I knew on the big screen with dinosaurs 🤯
Fun fact: that storm is actually hurricane Iniki, it devastated our island...which led to an interesting urban legend:
Bc yes, as a kid, it gave me nightmares but not for the exact reason ppl think, there was a urban legend amongst us island kids that the animatronic raptors malfunctioned & "became real" (think living AI in Terminator) & got loose during the hurricane & could hunt you when hiking...seems very far fetched, but to kids with active imaginations, it seemed possible especially after watching this movie lol!
when you think about the fact that all the dinosaurs were mixes of animatronic and CGI it really kinda gives you new respect for the actors tho, lol... all the screaming and looking so shook when most of the time there probably wasnt even anything in the room with them , or just a dude in a blue-screen suit
That John Williams music in the "Welcome to Jurassic Park" scene gets me teary-eyed every time. Classic.
Agreed.
Dude this was my dream movie as a child, it was literally everything I wanted as an 8 year old
A movie with various dinosaurs running around in the city killing people
It gets me teary-eyed too lol yeeesss haha love it!
Every goddamn time, ever since I first saw this when it came out. Such an epic movie moment!
Watching this back in the day was an event. The dawn of CGI and new jaw-dropping possibilities.
back in the days where practical meant practical and now that CGI is more affordable and easier to produce it became vicariously practical ... how ironic
Still hold up even today
Great reaction, Seb! After Lex falls through the drop-ceiling, with her legs dangling, and Dr. Grant pulls her back up, just in time to escape the Velociraptor snapping at her foot, I noticed that I jerked my leg back. When I showed this film to my sister, at the same instant, she also jerked her leg back. I wonder how many people did the same thing. A little audience participation never hurts.
Fun fact: The t-rex (Rexy) is the same one still alive in the jurassic world series, making her ~30 years old in the most recent movie. 🦖🎞
4:28 you have no idea how iconic this song is to most of us dude. This is like the quintessential "lives rent free in your head" song for most movie fans
Edit: PLEASE watch the rest of the franchise. Even tho the rest of the movies are weak compared to this one, just sit back and enjoy the dinosaurs.
Also that Amber Heard pile of shit joke was peak 🤣
Yes, this song is LEGENDARY
Yeah. There's a pretty good chance that if I feel in a whistling mood it's gonna be that theme song.
I often sing this to myself within myself
Agree, it just goes downhill from here with every single title, but its still worth watching Lost World, III and World.
Personally though, as golden as the Amber Heard joke was, Fallen Kingdom and Dominion fit it more so.
Agreed. Wept in the cinema when they redid it for the establish shot in World.
that moment when the T-Rex roars at Grant during the attack is one of the most chilling images in movie history
I saw this in theaters when it came out, and when I heard that T-rex roar, I damn near needed to change my jeans.
@@janna-renee bro you gotta be like 60
@@GhostMan407 You're kidding, right? The film is from 1993.
@@welingtondas.c.guimaraes6336 well you’d probably have to be at least 10 to see it so you’d be like 40 years old, that’s hella old. boomer type shit
@@GhostMan407 I don't know if you know, but 60 to 40 is 20 years. And 20 years is a long time. o.O
Also, in Brazil the life expectancy is 76.8 on average (I don't know which country the guy was born/lives in, so I'll take my country as a base). 40 years is close to half of a person's life. =)
I was 10 when this came out, and it was the first "scary movie" I ever saw in theaters. My mom didn't want my younger brother and me to see it, so of course my dad took us (they had recently divorced, so he was more than happy to take us...). I absolutely loved it, and then proceeded to have nightmares involving raptors for the next month. 🤣
I guess that’s a bonus then :). Obviously you’re doing fine now but I still hope the divorce wasn’t too rough on you guys.
Same here. I saw it with my grandma when I was 8 years old in 1993 and I loved the movie but still got nightmares from the trex and raptors despite getting the toys and sega genesis video game that year.
The scene where we first see the T-Rex is phenomenal. From the moment it gets quiet, to the water glass, to that incredible first roar, the tension is so high, and it doesn't let up. It's a genuinely great movie.
And a big shoutout to the incredible score by John Williams, you just can't go wrong with his music.
I’ve probably rewatched this more than any other movie I’ve seen. I watched it for the first time when it came out on VHS (I was 7 or 8), by myself in my grandparents basement😂 During the part where the T-Rex first escapes, I was so scared. I had to pause it and go sit upstairs with the grown ups for a little bit lol
This and Small Soldiers were my childhood lol I kid... my teen years.
Bro i love to rewatch this movie too
@@DirtCheapFU yooooo small soldiers is so damn good.
Awww ♥
@@jolane3591 Right? It's a shame they never made a sequel.
Not quite David Attenborough......it was his brother Richard, who was a famous actor/director
RIP
This is the movie that made me fall in love with movies. And the effects still hold up. The Mount Rushmore of all time films could arguably be all Spielberg films.
26:06 "Clever girl..." One of the most iconic las words in cinema history. He even manages to get one last shot off before he dies. I hate and love that Muldoon's character dies in this, I know he survives in the book, but I really wanted him to live in this. Also, 8:58 is super messed up, not that they feed them a bull, but that the poor bull is sent in there alive, and defenceless! What a horrible way to go!
The dilophosaurus scene used to scare me so much as a kid, I'd cover my face with a pillow everytime I watched 😂 it's absolutely hilarious now as an adult tho 😂
You were not alone in shoving a pillow in your face during that scene XD
Hello... Newman.
The same scene from the book is way scarier tho
My parents recorded this movie from the TV onto a VHS. And it was a Christmas special. There was an advertisement where they showed Dennis Nedry and sang to the tune of a Christmas song 'hey that's *name*, you know the big guy, from Seinfeld, he's gonna die. He gets spit on, and eaten, and chewed up, by that little dinosaur guy'. I can't unhear it. I don't remember the name because I never watched Seinfeld lol.
@@mamaseesa3122 Newman.
First movie I ever saw in theatre.. had just turned 4 years old. Aunt and uncle thought it would be great to take us to see a dinosaur movie. Had nightmares for days, will never forget lol
Was 5 at that time, and saw it like three years later on VHS. Still scared me shitless lol
Brings me to tears remembering this. I was at a university high school program for native students at the The University of Colorado at Boulder and 80 of us were brought to see this, front row and center at UA theatres in Boulder, CO. I was always into science, but this solidified my passion for molecular biology. Not just to study, but to respect it. It shocked a lot of us natives realizing what could and shouldn't happen.
"Your archeologist binoculars"
Well, for dinosaurs, there are paleontologists. ;)
Also, the rest of the franchise reaction, please. :)
Fun fact: the trex just follows the road flare, it’s not chasing Ian also Sam Jackson was supposed to have a full chase scene but a real storm blew out the set they needed
Honestly, I feel like the reveal with the arm is better than any chase scene would have been, so that real storm was a happy accident.
If you get scared now imagine watching as a kid haha .. so many of these scenes scared the sh*t out of me but we still loved the movies, went through a phase where it was all my siblings and I would watch on rotation LOL … this is my favourite of the OG3 but definitely recommend watching the rest (including the Jurassic World Series with Chris Pratt) I think you’d enjoy them! 😊
My nephew is often heavily impacted by suspense, where you can't really see what's happening but it's chaos and fear happening. My sister decided to watch this movie with him when he was like 8 years old and he couldn't even make it past the opening scene with the raptor grabbing the guy and hearing "Shoot her!" without having to run to the bathroom to throw up lol.
He's 13 now and can handle that stuff a lot better. I suppose he's gotten used to that kind of suspense from playing video games. But it was around that same age that I introduced him to Star Wars and we had to put off watching Ep 3 for a while because my sister and I were worried that he wouldn't be able to handle the duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan.
Tbh, out of the 3 jurassic world, I really only enjoyed the first JW. I think because it’s the only one that stuck to the original plot of Dino theme park.
I wasn’t even born and this movie scared me. My mom was eight months pregnant with me and she and my dad went to go see it in theaters, they were stuck at the front row and needless to say I kept “jumping” as my mom calls it at all the loud dinosaur noises. No wonder why I’m naturally jumpy now 😂.
"Delays? Dude, there are delays and then there is a t-rex eating a lawyer on the bog." --- bwahahahaha!!!! Loved your reaction!
Me and my youngest sister are ten years apart. When she was about six or seven, we watched all the movies together, and after that it became almost like a yearly ritual we did together. I know, she was young, but she absolutely loved it!
I still watch them yearly. We haven't watched them together in years now. I might have to invite her over for a Jarassic Park marathon.
Absolutely think you both should do it...
Definitely do. A great nostalgic trip down memory lane. What a great childhood ritual to watch JP movies together. ❤
My mom took us all to see the movie, and I was like 5. She thought it was going to be like ET since it was the same director. I can still remember her hand covering my eyes when the T-rex eats the lawyer.
"i imagine the plot is gonna be one of them gets loose"
sebscreen when all of them get loose: 💀
Every time I see someone react to this movie I have to watch. The effect this movie had on me when I saw it in theaters.... The visuals, the music, the story... It was just the most amazing thing I've ever seen. The second best showing of this movie was when I saw it with a live symphony performing the soundtrack in sync with the movie. Chills. Absolute chills.
Yep. I was trying to pick something to watch while eating. Had a few options that I was choosing between when I saw this and there was no hesitation in deciding on this.
"How can we stand, in the light of discovery, and not act" as Hammond is perfectly positioned behind the projector light as he sits in the light to not only act as a duality of his meaning, but also the irony that he isn't standing, but sitting in the light of discovery. Hammond sitting lends credit to his elementary or improper handling of the discovery. Lots of genius framing in this movie.
“This guy’s got balls😂…. This guy has even bigger balls😂😂😂” I’m dying ahaha
One of my favorite films of all time! Growing up watching this gave me so many nightmares, but it was worth it.
I wasn’t born for a long time after this film came out but I was told that when I was a baby my mother sat me down while she watched this film and I didn’t cry once, just watching in awe. I was clearly a Jurassic kid from day one and still am, the obsession and love I have for these films is huge
I had one of the triceratops plushies shown in the gift shop as a kid! Freaking loved that plush
07:11 😂😂😂😂 You are hysterical Seb, best reaction channel on UA-cam brother! BTW, your catch phrase 'Ah, yo...' has become part of my vernacular mate!!
need a t-shirt of it.
@@floppsymoppsy5969 THAT ACTUALLY WOULD BE EXCELLENT!!!
I was a projectionist (runs the big projector machine) at my hometown movie theater when this movie originally came out…I felt so grateful and happy to be even a tiny part of what so many people enjoyed experiencing. such a high quality and sometimes even profound film. Some movies just electrify a crowd and the energy is palpable - it was always fun to see people leave a film just amped and bouncing off walls LOL
I originally had this movie on VHS, and when my eldest niece was 4 years old she would watch it, in its entirety, get up and rewind it only to hop back on the couch and watch it all over again. It was her favorite movie.
I love the moment when grants gets Rexy's attention and she roars at him, and then has the "oh shit" moment.
When the girl falls through the ceiling and there is a valosoraptor jumping up to get her, the stunt woman accidentally looked up at the camera and it was very obvious that it was the stunt woman’s face. They were going to have to reshoot the entire sequence but they would never get everything to work for continuity, so Spielberg filmed the girl screaming and they super imposed her face over the stunt woman’s face. Spielberg spared no expense!
Well, actually that's a considerable spared expense.
1-2 computer techs working to superimpose the face vs an entire film crew having to redo a stunt shot is not even a consideration worth making - this is one pf the many things that CG has helped to save money on.
The problem with CG is Jevon's Paradox - just like with everything else once you make something more efficient it doesn't mean that people just accept that it is more efficient, it means that they want more of it.
The always wanting more CG is a big part of why so much of it stinks - there's too many shots for any director to effectively manage quality control personally, so hero shots aside much of it ends up being at best an approximation of the intentions of the pre production design.
Even when it is obvious that the CGI has fallen short of expectations they do not cut it out because the expense of creating it then demands the use of it
@@mnomadvfx Yes, I agree with you and you are correct. I was making a pun at the many times, “… Spared no expense” was utilized in the script. 😊
Seb, have you have seen WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT? It’s a murder mystery where cartoons and people like in the same world by the director of Back to the Future and Forest Gump. If you’ve never seen it I highly recommend it!
I agree
“The lawyer’s first in the gob” just sent me through the floor I am laughing so hard. 🤣 There are so many iconic, legendary shots and sounds and lines in this movie that are seared into my brain. Random ones too like Jeff Goldblum running away in his soaking wet clothes with the T Rex running after him as he holds the flare, Lex screaming “He left us! He left us!” … Laura Dern’s screaming “ALAN!!” when they find the car… pieces of childhood memory. And your reaction made it even better.
In the bog, bog being a slang term for toilet.
@@briarelyse5136 Yup. I know what a bog is. And he says that, too. But at 15:35 he says what I'm referring to.
I remember being at K-Mart with my dad when I was 6, I convinced him to buy the new Jurrasic Park VHS tape. I proceeded to watch the movie so many times the tape broke right after the Dodgeson! scene. Luckily my dad spliced it back together for me and I only lost about a minute of the movie. I still watched it over and over again and I'm not even a Dinosaur nut, I just loved that movie.
I was about 3 when it came our on VHS, we didn't have the ability to splice our copies....one of my copies broke at the opening Brachisaurus scene
I remember seeing this at the cinema when it first came out, the T rex scene with the cars scared the crap out of me and my mates. Its an amazing movie. Glad you like it.
I have so fond memories of the movie. They re-released it for 3D in 2012 for it's 20th anniversary, and my dad took me to see it. Such a classic film.
Edit: I'd also recommend the book as wel, it's just as a good as the movie, but also diverts in different ways.
the deaths are more brutal too
I first watched this when I was about 10-11 and I am 14 now and are still obsessed with this franchise brilliant film
Fact: the rex was actually an animatronic and cgi model that constantly needed to be dried out during the rain in the escape scene and sometimes glitches and moves during shutdown
It's because Steven Spielberg is an outstanding director. Dinosaurs before were just done in stop motion. Good CGI isn't about how powerful your computer system is, it's about how well it's choreographed and shot. That gallimimus scene was revolutionary too. The team literally had to invent a system they could use CGI in because Spielberg insisted that that shot needed to be a handheld.
It was amazing seeing this movie in the theaters as a kid. I mean the effects were beyond anything before then. It was a crazy experience b/c we couldn't figure out how they did it. Whether practical or computer, nothing had looked that realistic yet and this was before wide-spread internet so unless you read certain magazines or happened across something showing BTS stuff, you had to wait to find out.
This is one of my favorite films ever. so glad that you reacted to this. Hope you will watch the other movies
As much as Rexy the Tyrannosaurus rex (yes, that's her canon name. She's known as Roberta in the novel version of Jurassic Park) scared the living hell out of me as a kid, she's the reason her species is my favorite dinosaur.
Also, I love how they used modern animal and every day object sound effects to make the dinosaur sounds.
Adult raptors: Tortoise mating call, walrus chest roar, angry goose hiss and dolphin scream recorded underwater
Baby raptors: Owlets (baby owls), kits (baby foxes)
Gallimimus: Female horse in heat (getting shaken to death by the Tyrannosaur)
Brachiosaurus: Slowed down donkey calls, the sneeze was a whale breathing through its blowhole(s) mixed with an active fire hydrant
Dilophosaurus: Hawk, swan, rattlesnake and howler monkey
Tyrannosaurus rex: Dog playing with a rope toy, elephant calf vocalizations, an alligator's gurgling vocalizations, a tiger's snarls and roars
Triceratops: Cow mooing, human breathing through a tube
15:55 what’s more terrifying is that on set for the movie, the rain made the giant trex animatronic malfunction and made it move on its own
Going to the movies back then was awesome. Going to the movies was an event! First, hearing everyone talking about it. Shows on TV like "Entertainment Tonight" , huge movie billboards, radio DJs, everyone was talking about the latest hit movie. The whole country buzzed about these movies. Then excitedly waiting in the long lines to get in. Then seeing the excited faces of people coming out let you know that you were about to see something awesome!! Going to the movies was just special. I don't know how else to describe it.
"ay yo" never gets old 😂
my mom took me to see this when I was 6.
I have the honor of seeing this in a theater in '93.
this is one of the best movies I have ever seen.
and the book is even better!
The main reasons why the 1st JP Movie works so well:
- compelling characters
- wide aspect ratio of the camera (no black bars at the bottom and top) so the size of the Dinos can work
- John Williams score
- great sound design
- compelling characters
- Tension and buildup. Dinos are seen only in about 15min of this film at all.
- named characters can die, not just no-name side characters
- the actors actually showing convincing shock and surprise when encountering the dinosaurs
Hey Seb!🤗 Cheers 4 another awesome reaction mate! I think it's my fave of yours next 2 "Mean Girls" hehe!😉 It's pretty funny u said "What, David Attenborough?! No, I know that's not him." It's actually his bro Richard Attenborough! I'm sure u've been told that by now, but just in case man!
Much love & positive vibes from Aus xo 👍 💚🇦🇺
This channel is the story of Seb going from having watched less movies than most, to more than most.
I imagine everyone screaming “CUT THE LIGHT OFF” at the girl. It just seems like the one thing the world would agree on 😂
A well managed zoo actually serves a very important purpose for conservation and helping animals either be rehabilitated or those that couldn't survive in the wild for a number of reasons. It's a really common misconception that they are just animals in captivity that could otherwise be free!
Saw this movie in theaters on release date with one of my friends and a girl that he just met and asked out.. Great movie at the end of it after we dropped her off my friend turned to me and said I'm not seeing her again ..I'm like why she's very pretty and seemed pretty nice, then he said her tongue felt like sandpaper , we both started cracking up.. I think i was either 19 or 18 when I saw this, he was 4 to 5 years older than I was ...He was one of my best friends .Last time I saw him was in 2000 before I moved Across the country with my gf/ex wife, About two weeks before 9/11 .. I just remember fun times hanging with friends Lots of little stories I could talk about ....we all have them fun crazy life memories..
These movies were great watching growing up. Although I admit, these movies are the reason for my fear of raptors lol.
I felt so stupid when I found out the guy that plays John Hammond was David Attenborough’s brother. I just thought the last names were a coincidence 😂
"All I wrote was Chris Evans" Absolutely killed me
Loved your reaction to this absolute gem ❤️ Been following you for a while now and its always so much fun watching your videos. Keep up the good work!
“David Attenborough, jk I know it’s not him”
It’s his brother lol
RIP Richard Attenborough.
fun fact: when this came out in theaters in 1992, certain theaters were equipped with a new sound system that went into the subsonic ranges. meaning; when the characters on the screen "felt" the T-Rex's footsteps, the audience did, too! through their seats!
and the girl that played Lex, a few years earlier was in the movie Tremors with Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward. she was the little girl on a pogo stick.
And Tim's Actor later played Queens Bassest in Bohemian Rhapsody
Some fun facts about Jurassic Park and dinosaurs in general:
The novel that the film was based off was much more morbid than the film. Michael Crichton, the author of the book, originally wanted to write a book that was suitable for children, but the publishing company was sick of family-friendly dinosaur media, so he had to make it a horror novel. For example, the Dilophosaurus was much bigger (bigger than the raptors), and slashed Nedry's guts out before eating him.
The movement of the dinosaurs in the film is still largely accurate today. The T. Rex didn't have both feet off the ground at any time, because ten tons of muscle would shatter the bones with that much force. Instead, it sorta 'fast walked,' basically speedwalking (unfortunately, it probably wasn't 32 mph).
The 'Velociraptor' in the film is hugely inaccurate. For one, the dinosaur is based off an earlier relative, Deinonychus, and is heavily scaled up. The interesting part, though, is that the 'raptor's closest irl analogue, Dakotaraptor, lived in the same area as T. Rex and maybe at the same time, which ties into my next point.
Dinosaurs could have had rivalries like modern species. For example, lions and hyenas are mortal enemies, and will kill each other without even needing to eat, just because they hate each other that much. Considering that T. Rex lived in the presence of other successful hunters, like its relative Daspletosaurus, could mean that rivalries were possible.
I love how Seb is like, you may know him from this. Bahahahahahah
Most people know him from one of the best 80s horror/Sci fi movie, the remake of the movie "The Fly"... bahahahahahahahahhaha
It was my first movie at the cinema and believe me this movie changed the industry, it raised the quality standards just like later Titanic, Avatar and Matrix did
Every second of this movie is a masterpiece, expecally the first half of it is on point
Please watch the whole series! You will not regret it! 🦕🦖
Bro, how do you get 3K views in less than an hour? You're going insane popular, in a good way. Well done
You should definitely react to the rest of the movies as well as the canon spinoff show Camp Cretaceous (you should probably watch the show before the 6th movie because there may be some callbacks in the movie to the show IDK I haven't seen Dominion yet)
2:43 It's David Attenborough's brother Richard
5:30 The CGI was incredible for the time and still holds up well today CGI would not be where it is today without this film
7:25 It is entirely possible to create a real life Jurassic park in the near future there have been a few cases of finding preserved tissue from dinosaurs which still partially contain DNA
12:31 most modern zoo's especially in the UK are not cruel animals have to be treated well and the research done in them help to protect and repopulate eco-systems
16:43 the skylight wasn't supposed to fall like that the storm in the film was unplanned this caused the T-rex animatronic to malfunction pushing down too hard the actor reactions are genuine they could have been crushed it also broke one of the T-rex's teeth
Sorry about the zoo, but it’s not quiet right, they try to make it as liveable for the animals as possible but it’s mostly still a way to small. Tons of money go into preserve the zoo and to make the enclosure bigger with les animals… if you think this point to the end, you could just establish nature reserves.
And they don’t really help by repopulate, most of this animals will never survive in the wild ever again.
There are good zoos in Denmark, Netherlands.
- Since we got zoos we preserved 50 species (mammals and birds) , 20 to 150 species die daily
- Most of the animal (77%) species in zoo are not at risk only 23% are
( sources: Journals.plos.org/plod one/article.id=10.1371/journal.pone.0080311 )
There are good articles in the internet
Sorry, the topic is very close to my heart
Hope you have a wonderful day :)
"The CGI was incredible for the time and still holds up well today CGI would not be where it is today without this film"
Nope.
Try Terminator 2 and The Abyss before that - and even Young Sherlock Holmes before that.
Jurassic Park was more of a landmark in quality that sadly few films afterward even came close to matching.
Even then it accomplished it through film tricks, like shooting the live action footage with a soft focus so that the lack of detail on the CG would be less noticeable - not to mention the animatronic dinosaurs created by Stan Winston's people that filled in the close up shots with actual in camera footage so that you end up mentally associating the real animatronics with the CG imagery.
The first film since watching JP that truly blew me away in the CG department was LOTR - Fellowship of the Ring with the Balrog/Moria scene, though The Matrix came close.
CGI is where it is today because of a lot of people doing the science in universities behind the scenes - it was always going to replace matte paintings and stop motion as it matured even if JP had flopped, though ironically the CG dinosaurs would probably not have been even remotely believable without stop motion wizard Phil Tippett doing the animation for them using a specially made computer controller made to look like an actual dinosaur that he might pose in stop motion filming, without that inclusion the CG dinosaurs would have looked clunkier than well made stop motion for lack of expertise.
The sunroof was always supposed to be broken through by the T-Rex. It was in the original script. It's also painfully obvious that it was supposed to happen from the preceding scenes.
The only malfunction during that scene is the tooth breaking off and chipping a part of the plexiglass. That's it. While I have no doubt that it was pretty scary for the kids, their screams are part of the act.
Saw Jurassic Park in theater when it came out as a 9 year old kid and it scared the crap out of me! Still one of my favorite movies ever, I rewatch it once a year at least
Taking reaction videos to a new level... by talking through every single moment of the film.
You've never seen this movie before? What kind of childhood is that?😭
I still can't believe you've never seen Jurassic Park...the first time I watched it I was probably five 😂
The storytelling in this film is done so right.
Plus there is something relaxing about the reactions of the characters. They feel natural, likeable.
Even Hammond is to some extent likeable. He is not just an all time villain with a diabolical plot. He plays the mad scientist and we can question about whether or not what he does is wonderful or on the opposite amoral.
But he is still a good grandfather.
Besides the head of maintenance guy, all others characters are not walking clichés. They are complexes they have room to improve, goals to seek on a personal level. They motivations feel down to Earth.
The movie knows how to build an atmosphere. It takes his time. He preserves his tropes for the right moments and don't overuse them.
It's really refreshing compared to big budget movies from today.
fun fact: that banner at 30:17 wasn't meant to fall but they kept it in bc it was so perfect!
i remember when i was little, about 5, my dad wouldn’t let me watch the scene in ‘journey to the center of the earth’ that had the dinosaur in it because he thought it would scare me. so i went back to my mom’s house and begged her to let me watch this movie.
i. loved. it. so. much. i then proceeded to go back to my dad and proudly tell him i watched it and wanted to see the dinosaur in journey. he was so surprised at this little girl who was in awe of dinosaurs. it actually led to me checking out a giant dinosaur encyclopedia at the library!!
i cant believe you hadn’t seen it before now!! glad to see you be introduced to such an iconic and great film 🙏
Fun Fact: The shot of the t-rex when the flag falls in front of it while it roars? Completely accidental. The flag came lose on it's own and it was so cinematic they decided to keep it.
That's fron lord of the rings
0:31 actually it’s not archaeologist, it’s paleontologist. Paleontologists are the ones who dig up dinosaur bones.
5:23, that’s not a Brontosaurus/Apatosaurus, that’s a Brachiosaurus. The way you can tell is because a Brachiosaurus has longer front legs and shorter back legs as well as a crest on top of its head. While an Apatosaurus has shorter front legs, longer back legs and a whiplike tail.
Sorry to sound like a nerd lol, I mean I kinda am but oh well 😂
Great video by the way, loved it very much, it made me laugh. ❤
I love that you finally watched this!!! I have been waiting for you to watch it for at least a year seb! This is one of my fav movies of all time!
I was born in 1993 when this movie came out. Next to Harry Potter and LotR this is my comfort film that makes me think of back in the day. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Lol I watched this 5 times when it came out - it seemed like the cinema run wouldn't end.
Of course I was 8 years old so that raptor jump scare in the utility bunker made me jump out my seat every time 😂
4:03 I know Jeff Goldblum from The Fly (1986), but he started acting in the 1970s... 😉 So glad you're reacting to this franchise -- for some reason, I thought you'd seen it already, so this is a nice surprise! I remember seeing this at the cinema with a friend (who got very invested with the dinosaurs killing people). The music is iconic, though, and means so much to those of us who saw this fresh at the time. Thank you for being one of the best reactors out there. 😀
You should have experienced this on a day one opening in a severely packed theater. To this day it is the single most memorable moment I’ve ever experienced in a theater. The walls shook from the sounds. People screamed. It was amazing.
Saw in theaters because my parents couldn’t find a sitter. They thought I would fall asleep. I distinctly remember mom covering my eyes when the lawyer gets eaten. And I said. “Cool!” … I was a film fanatic from then on I swear. I loved watching film over my big bro any day.
Seb, you should watch the movie Signs. The best alien movie ever tbh.
This movie truly is a CLASSIC in every sense of the word. Iconic music, groundbreaking CGI and practical effects, and for kids of the 90's, it birthed a love of Dinosaurs that still carries on nearly 30 years later. No matter what your favorite genre or taste is in movies, this is one of the 50 greatest films in the history of cinema. Based on the special effects and practical effects alone, it's an incredibly important movie for the culture of filmmaking. There are 5 other installments in the franchise and none of them sense have convinced me that there is a real Dinosaur on the screen, but this one absolutely did. The T-Rex scene is one of the mist suspenseful scenes I've ever seen from a movie that was technically a horror film.
The piano guys version of the theme song is literally the only song that I can fall asleep to happy. It’s soooo peaceful
It baffles me how many iconic movies and shows you’ve never seen. Jurassic park was the best back in the day. More practical effects than digital. The “Allen” scene always hits me with nostalgia.
So I was born 98'. The first time i watched the movie I was maybe 11 and even then I realized that that are the kinds of movies made for cinema. Epic and full of meaning and moral while being entertaining. I was absolutely baffled. One of the best "mainstream" loved movies of all time
I was just thinking about how you haven’t reacted to the Jurassic park/World Series and now I log onto UA-cam to see this
First time I saw it, I was 18 and on a date. The movie was far better than the date!!! LOL! It was an awesome experience and probably my favorite “in theater” experience ever!
Thank You for this today, I can always count on you to make me smile and laugh❤️
I do not understand why they made him a kid hater in the movie cause in the books he seems to like kids and their love of dinosaurs more then he likes adults. In the books it even makes mention of him saying that little kids can pronounce the names of the dinosaurs correctly where adults cannot.
I guess they had to more girl power it to as I think in the books the girl was more a jock and the boy was the computer nerd.
I've watched in theatres in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (wow, I'm old hahaha), good days when the trailers didn't spoil so much of the movies. Seeing the T-Rex for the first time was like a dream come true... well, there were other dinosaur movies, but this one was the first that sucessfully tricked our brains into believing what we were seeing was real.
Sooooo cool! Thank you for sharing 😄
O filme é incrível, recomendo ler o livro também. ^^
Não pude ver nos cinemas, até por quê o filme é do ano em que nasci (1993), mas ele com certeza foi um dos motivos de eu querer, quando era criança, ser paleontólogo (Assim como "Em Busca do Vale Encantado" que o coitado do meu pai precisava alugar a fita VHS várias e várias vezes a pedidos meus e de minha irmã mais velha). xD
Honestly, Jeff Gouldblum will ALWAYS be the guy from dogs vs cats to me😂
If I remember correctly the T-Rex animatronic malfunctioned in the scene they kept and it wasn't supposed to break through the glass roof of the vehicle. The screams of those kids were very real, lol.
