Dr. Alan Grant: "I have a PTSD in paleontology."
Don't you mean PHD?
Dr. Grant: *1000yd stare*
I shouldn’t laugh but that’s good!🤣🤣
😂
I’m quoting you to my dad 😂
Apparently even before this he was he made his way in the badlands for 4 days with a broken leg. The man has been around.

2:10:29 “Lex was shouting something, but he couldn’t hear what she was saying.”
Everyone listening to this audiobook:
FUCKING FINALLY!
People these days just never understand kids anymore. Makes me disappointed 😒
I’m sure she was just hungry
Your so right
@@adawnicusautocontbh the writer seemed to just hate Lexie
@@adawnicusautocon She was probably screaming about doing something about the TRex (never mind that's exactly what Grant was doing - getting her and her brother as far away from it while it was distracted).
Every time Lex starts to do anything I start to root for the T-Rex
Timmy coming absolutely uncorked on her at ~25:00 is such a great exchange.
@@foultarnished7990agreed 😂
out of all the insufferable characters you decide to hate on a small child for acting like a small child nice :)
@@dee6215 you do realize that I was making a joke about a character that never existed in real life in a book that is classified under science fiction, right?
That's funny. Absolutely. I can't take any more. I'm done. It's too annoying.
The reason the screenplay so different from the novel is all because of Lex. The producers realized that they can't make a movie where the audience desperately wants a little girl to be killed by dinosaurs. So, they rewrote the children, and from there they began to change other things until we were left with what Spielberg used to make film.
Jurassic park as an 8 part horror mini series would be amazing. Til then, I’ll close my eyes and pretend that’s what this.
Peacock really needs to make a faithful TV-MA rated Jurassic Park and Lost World miniseries’
Call it “Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park” and “Michael Crichton’s The Lost World”
can we take a minute to appreciate muldoon and his charachter in this whole story?
🗿🍷
Clever girl.
Arguably the most badass character for sure
Man they forgot about looking for those missing kids pretty quickly huh? Like Hammond is fussing over a tranqued dinosaur while his grandkids are still missing- harsh.
Yes, I just heard this. 😂
That's a capitalist for you. Only cares so far as it doesn't affect his bottom line.
This is a book about dinosaurs and the least realistic part is Hammond insisting that the government wouldn’t want life saving medication to cost a fortune.
It is more accurate to say the government would be indifferent
He's a capitalist, he was mostly worried that they might not want to charge a fortune.
@@JulioVonGhouliocapitalist does not equal someone who wants wealth, please stop conflating the two
@@david-468
Ah yes, capitalists that don't want wealth. Just like like those people that like swimming but hate being in water. lol
Capitalism only equals greed. Because that's all that ever comes out of it.
Conservatives complain that corporations have bought out the politicians, but what else do they expect from a system and society that they themselves promote, that worships money?
@@david-468 That might be the single dumbest sentence I've ever read.
“Alright guys hear me out, I’ve got an idea to get the raptors off us. Lex come here for a sec…”-Dr. Grant
Then we'd hear her whine. 'But why Mr Grant?'
😂😂😂😂😂
this made me LOL
If I had read the book before the movie came out, I would have skipped it. Lex makes listening to this a pain in the ass!
I would be leaving that island as an only child
@@thatvalensteingirl they fixed lex but ruined tim
@@Nothing-33667 Ehhhh, Tim is pretty accurate for a little boy who is autistic about dinosaurs at the beginning. Plus, his general reactions are pretty realistic most times, if I was a kid in that Ford Explorer, I'd shit bricks. Seriously PTSD inducing incident. Legit got thrown off a man-made structure by a dinosaur while in a crunched-up vehicle with no restraints on. He also gets electrocuted nearly to death, nearly gets caught and killed by raptors when in the kitchen... I personally think both of the kids are much more likable and real in the movie.
Those that don’t like lex due to her whining and crying and want to leave her behind to be eaten clearly don’t have children and are real monsters
@nathanphillips1669 I have kids. During the boat sequence, I was PRAYING Grant would throw that little shit in the water to lure Rexie away. It's a fictional story with fictional characters. Nobody is a monster lmao.
@@nathanphillips1669kids are annoying sometimes but Lex is something else. I thought Crichton tried to write Lex as the stereotypical spoiled brat but went way too far

Quick question about the side business. Is this adapted from tape?
@@Michaelpatrickwarren wdym by that
hey, just in case you're thinking of making chapter timestamps for audiobooks in the future, i'd advise you to not put character death spoilers within the names of the chapters. Very hard to miss, but thanks for the timestamps anyway.
@@Charlovexo (R.I.P.)
The T-Rex chasing the raft should've been included in the movie.
Absolutely
reminds me of the scene from JP3 with the spinosaurus in the rain while they're on a boat
That scene is based on the raft scene, a lot of left over material from the books got used in JP3 and JW trilogy
It was too expensive
I think they actually wanted tried but the trex bot was already too hard to work with
Steven Spielberg did Allen Grant so much justice. What a badass
Probs to the talented narrator. He did an excellent job.
Fantastic narrator 🎉 it’s like being a kid again and having my dad put on different voices for all the characters when he read a story to me. 😊
Can't lie. Lex is getting thrown to Rexie in my playthrough
Rexie did nothing wrong, except maybe eating Malcom. Maybe.
@@StarboyXL9 Rexies only mistake was not eating Lex
Rexy didn't eat Malcolm @@StarboyXL9
She was like 8. I don't understand you people.
@@ElleStuart She should've been made into Rex Poo
It's interesting how the wild Raptors are calm collected and socialized animals while the first generation are psychos
The most unbelievable part of this entire book is the fact that NOBODY knocked the shit out of Hammond
Actually, the worker who he didn’t return the nod to watched him being alive with a smile and his face lol
I can't stand Hammond.
In real life, people keep showing up to work. The end of the world comes with people just doing their jobs
Definitely!!
thank you Steven Spielberg for completely rewriting these children
Especially Lex holly crap she’s annoying!
Slow down, he fixed Lex and ruined Tim. Still, they’re all better then the Jurassic world twerps.
@@ItoHiyori Pretty true ngl, but neither of them are as bad as lex in the books
@@metalfan7270 lex in the books is at least relatable, we all have that little sibling or cousin that just drove you insane when you two were little. The two in JW are just insufferable, “I’m a teenage horndog trope” “I’m the Dino nerd trope” (who never uses any knowledge to save/help them, and just cries cause the script says so. When Tim talks divorce in this book, it’s relatable.
@@ItoHiyori accurate lmao, I hate the jw characters
currently this is my first time reading the book, ive used your videos as i read at home, like when i dont feel like watching youtube or playing games i sit and read my new favorite book. its cool how different the book is from the film, the dinosaurs, the characters (all my homies hate lex), some scenes, etc. the gruesomeness and detail of this book, the t rex scraping its claws on the land cruisers, the terror and eventually feeling of defeat during nedrys death scene. i love this book and i think its cool i can just get on youtube and listen to an audiobook and listen as i read along, i find it helps me understand what im reading better as opposed to trying to read it on the bus with all the screaming kids and music my bus driver plays. these videos you posted have helped and i dread the day where i read the last page of this book.
Why couldn’t the author have had Lex eaten first. Would have saved us a lot of headaches and irritation
In the future, Mr. Predator dude, please include chapter time stamps. For those of us lamelings who can't listen in one sitting it would be most helpful🤙🏻

Wow! Lex was super annoying in the novel rather than the movie.
Before reading the comments, I never thought Lex was that bad, but I also have an annoying younger sister who was just like her when she was younger 😂🤷♂️
I’ll wait to see if they make a movie.
That would probably be a good movie!!🤣😊😊
Sometimes I think Lex should have been given more discipline in her short life. Tim had more self discipline than a kid his age should have but her, yeah, she seems like she's a toddler or something, intellectually speaking. As another commenter said, every time Lex starts to do anything, I start to root for the dinosaurs (paraphrased).
That was the idea, though. She was the favorite of a rich couple and was spoiled her whole life.
Tbf, the narrator is 60% of the reason Lex is so annoying. Hearing a guy in his 50's doing a whiny 8 year old brat impression somehow makes her even worse.
@@stevepalpatine2828 No. Although Crichton is a certifiable genius as an author, he somewhat missed the mark here. What he (and the narrator) get right early on is her as a whiny, spoiled 8 year old. On this, Crichton is PERFECT! But where he failed (and you can't blame the narrator here, he's just reading the words on the page) is that in the many examples where Lex is ATTACKED and comes within an inch of her life, her response is ... to whine for ice cream??? No. Even a spoiled, whiny, 8 year old is going to devolve to their reptile brain and do whatever it takes to *survive.* If someone told her to shut up and fall in line, she would. ANYONE would.
It reinforces her character, I get it ... but it's completely unrealistic. No matter how whiny, no matter how bratty, *NO MATTER WHAT* ... no child is going to stand in front of a 40 foot tall T-Rex and complain "I'm hunnnngry." All they'd do is shit their pants and cry.
The narrator did his job 101%-- it is Crichton that failed here.
Muldoon explaining for 5 minutes how you never find remains after animal attacks, moments after finding a torn off leg in the road
Poor Regis 😢
Wow, this is the first William Roberts narration of Jurassic Park I've heard with clear sound quality. Nice!
At first I was put off by his tenor, but he proved himself with character differentiation. He's a really good narrator!
The movie was incredible but what the book does better is how the human designed systems were always faulty. Yes the dinosaurs were breeding in the movie but there wasn’t an indication of where they are doing that, in or out side the enclosures the movie didn’t really indicate when the characters were inside or outside the enclosures. Nedry shut down the grid in the movie. that’s the only problem they had. a disgruntled Employee. Otherwise the movie implies they had control and someone messed it up. The book shows they never had control to begin with. So Dr. Sattler’s lecture to Mr Hammond about hubris in the movie doesn’t make sense and a little awkward
Thats a very good observation, never really thought about it that way, but you are 100% right. I also always felt that the lesser brutality of the films failed the scariness of the animals being portrayed in general. Thats something the books, especially the first one, get so right. The amount of gore is that of an 80s slasher film.
The movie doesn't waste any time at telling the story while to book gets bogged down in mundane details so chriton can prove how smart he is. Movie better then the book
@@venicebeachsportsnetwork6677 lol that’s right!!! Haha I did feel he went off on tangents to talk about things that tangentially supported his “moral” of humans and control. lol where were the editors!
@@mickyvalenz9959 and goldblum was awesome in the movie but a lot of his best stuff is just taken directly from the book where the other actors in the movie have to make the characters thier own. Honestly really fascinating adaption to listen to all these years later
@@venicebeachsportsnetwork6677 oh boy, you're not going to like a lot of other Crichton books if you don't like long technical descriptions 😅
The poor baby raptor im sitting here at work putting headlights in with a look of distraught terror on my face little guy trusted tim!
Yeah that was brutal. I think Tim was thinking they'd have a more protective response to one of their young instead of going all Ed Gein on it.
Everytime When *LEX,* A 6 Years Old Kid Starts Believing Like 6 Years Old, It Irritates Me.
Yeah I feel like a lot of Lex's annoyingness can be forgiven when you remember she's a very young child. I feel like most writers would have written her essentially as a young teenager even if they described her as being six years old to get around that. Children are difficult to write. They're either annoyingly precocious or annoyingly stupid. Annoyingly stupid is closer to reality for most kids.
Edit: she's eight, not six, but still.
*behaving
For michael crichton to be able to utilize such scientific knowledge, human behavior, suspense, and then tie it all together is ingenious; chaos theory
Right, and 40 yrs ago... Amazing
Roberts does an excellent job narrating, but part of the problem is that he makes almost every character talk to each other as if the others are stupid. He uses a condescending tone in places that probably werent meant to sound that way. Similarly with Lex, Chrichton likely wanted her to sound afraid in some parts, but Roberts almost always uses a whiney tone with her no matter the context.
Well, the level of hubris and ego you would have to have to accept this project would be in par with the behavior
But this is one of the only weak parts in Crichton's writing. Lex is never really, TRULY afraid. Even in the midst of extreme danger, her only comment is to whine "I'm hunnngry." She stands in front of a 40 foot T-Rex and say "I want ice cream." It's absurd. The early parts of her character are spot-on for a spoiled, whiny brat. But once the real shit hits the fan (and there are SOOO many times it happens), that would have immediately stopped. Crichton is, here, comparing a whiny kid in a restaurant that won't shut up ... to a kid that was almost eaten by a 50 ton dinosaur. Those aren't comparable situations.
Lex exists.
Everyone: "Thanks I hate it and want it to die."
I can't help but feel like the narrator was channeling Mr. Potter from "It's a Wonderful Life" when doing Hammond's voice.
I never wanted a character to die so much as I did with Lex. God how I wanted to hear Raptors or the Rex tearing, shedding and chewing her to bits.
Yeah the book version of her is such an annoying worthless pain in the ass
She’s a child acting like a child. Be a bigger man. Y’all are incels
Those that are commenting saying that Lex should be left behind due to her whining and crying clearly don’t have children and are real monsters Lex is a six year old CHILD of COURSE she is going to cry and whine she is very scared out of her mind she’s been through a very traumatic event and her young mind can’t process what has actually happened to her so her only option is to whine and cry the book shows how human she, Grant and Timmy are.
Someone With Functioning Brain.
Yeah, it's just the voice the narrator uses for her that makes her character seem annoying.
not to mention hangry
Agreed.
Upon re-listening to this book, Lex reminds me a LOT of my niece when she was 7-8 years old.
People will say she’s annoying and useless but honestly the way she’s written and depicted is very realistic to how 7-8 years olds are, and if they were in this situation this is probably how they would react and behave.
Apparently a lot of people don’t understand that kids are not all Precocious and wise. So many authors write child characters as if they were small adults not understanding that kids simply aren’t like that.
It would have been easy to write both Lex and Tim as Precocious kids but Crichton instead made them realistic and true to how kids are in real-life.
Yes, an Amusement Park full of cloned dinosaurs isn’t realistic, however we as readers are willing to suspend our disbelief because the story is well written. If Crichton w
Lex is the perfect example of a spoiled 8 years old
"Tim is very interested in sex" bless you Lex! My favourite character now
“Do you think it’s the shorts?”
100% true to life younger sibling behavior
5:13:52 Jesus that was morbid, I mean Lex was right there! He could have spared the baby rap!
Every time I listen to this book... Ellie ignoring the cry to get inside makes me SO mad at Crichton. Upon until that point, she'd been one of his better written female characters and then she decides to second guess someone who's screaming at her to get to safety during RAPTOR KEEP AWAY?!? So fucking stupid. So fucking out of character. It's like he thought she was Lex for a second.
Its just one of those things.
Anyone can make a mistake. She was target fixated on watching the Raptors outside the fence.
Nothing to do with her being a woman, it sounded like the attack on Wu was very quick, and Ellie was concentrating on what she thought (and what was until that point) the real threat.
By the time anyone realized it was too late.
She was quick enough thinking and reacting to get away, a lot of people would have frozen for a moment in shock after seeing Wu attacked, I don't think it takes anything from Ellie as a character, just shows shes not perfect.
@@stevepalpatine2828 You misunderstand. I don't think it says something about Ellie as a character; I think it says something about Crichton, as a writer.
@@xxJETSETxx Ah, in that case I see your point.
@@xxJETSETxx Yeah, I agree
If you read his other memoirs he had bad experiences with women and it definitely shows in his work. One of the drawbacks to his writing is that it's really personal and coloured by his experiences even if it's fictional. In a way that can take you out of the story and a lot of it hasn't aged well.
Hell this is the same guy who wrote one of his critics as a child molester using the dude's government name. Micheal Crichton had great ideas but had his flaws as a writer definitely.
One of the scariest parts for me is the 40 minute mark when they watch ed get quietly stalked and torn apart. When crichton describes the moonlight filtering through the leaves... Chilling.... I could see it right away.
That would’ve been an awesome scene in the movie
A female voice actress for Lex would have been much easier on the ears. How Alan Grant didn't throw her to the T-Rex as a snack in beyond me. 😂
"The Tyranosaur ROARED!"
The raptor SNARLED!
Lex WHINED!
"Hammond DIED"
Dr Alan Grant has way more patience than I. In his position, I would've thrown Lex to the dinosaurs and ran for it xD
i read this book over 20 years ago and didn't remember lex being so annoying, i wonder why they decided to swap the kid's roles in the movie.
Because Alex was USELESS. So instead of hating a character. They split Tims personality in half and have the other half to Lex and also making her older and good with computers while making Tim the same age and loving Dino’s. Worked better for the movie
@Ethan-Hensley oh i completely agree. if lex was as whiny as she was in the book the movie would have been hard to sit through
Weird, at least to me, pronunciation of modem. I wonder how much of the Lex hate was the voice used for her. Yes, she was annoying, I recall that from reading the book myself years ago, but in this listen, it wasn't in my own voice, and it definitely added to the whininess.
Yeah the narrator does a good job in this reading but hearing a guy in his 50's doing a whiny 8 year old impression definitely adds to how annoying Lex is.
There's so much hate for Lex. She's acting her age, comes from a broken family, not interested in dinosaurs, but has to go along where it all turns to shit...
She is why her family is broken.
@@augustspanish4722no, her dad is. He spoiled her and loved her more than her other child. He was an obnoxious drunkard who exhausted his wife and son.
Yeah totally. Just joking, the narrator while great made her an absolute intolerable presence in the book. @@joshuawilliams9247
And she's annoying as hell and even after seeing first hand the danger they are in still nearly gets them killed multiple times.
That’s all true but she’s still incredibly annoying
Thanks for uploading. Just what I needed this week.
Lex needs to be the T-Rex’s lunch
along with Kaleb from Shriners...lol
5:21 Hammond giving Martin Shkreli vibes lol
Incredible! Thanks for uploading. Now what to listen to next that can evoke the same sense of suspense
2:13:30 Jack Horner name drop ?!?!?!?! The guy this book was basically written about?!?!?!
Now it made some sense for JW3 but still we would rather a how do we settle dinos in our world movie than big giant grasshopper
William Roberts’ narration is way better than the guy on the Audible version.
"mr.hammond, your grandchildren didn't make it...I pushed them over a...uh, I mean, the t rex got them" -Grant
I'd throw that girl to the 1st hungry critter.
Hammond's speech about pharmaceuticals/big pharma aged like milk, lol
The part with the Cerodactyls had me SHOOK as a kid. The scariest stuff didnt even make it into the movie. But given the level CGI was at back then I can easily see why they left the Aviary part out.
The road is also wild. Muldoon holding up Rigas' leg like a baseball bat and saying "No question what happened....." LIKE YEAH DUDE NO SHIT WHAT HAPPENED
Ralph the triceratops needed to be in the movie
This book was fascinating. Well written. Captivating. Not one second was it boring.
I want the dinosaur to eat the girl specifically. The raptors are less grafting on my nerves than the damn girl
I read this book when it first came out, and I really enjoyed the film. Yet, this book as read is wildly different from what I remember. Don’t misunderstand - I like ve this rendition. I’m just amazed that I had forgotten so mych.
Yeah it really is a lot different than the movie. So many scenes in the movie are shot with the wrong character and others were just completely missing or portrayed as totally different ppl. Like Ellie being this young brash college kid and not Alan's partner it's wild!
Thanks for this ❤
Arnold saying NUH-UH to everything drives me nuts
He’s so arrogant and delusional
I had absolutely no idea I would enjoy this so much! One of my favorites!
5:01-6:44 Hammond reveals his dark and sinister true colors thus revealing himself to be the books true human antagonist
Martin Shkreli beats off to this bit
In the first half of the novel, someone (I think John Arnold) says something like, "Yeah, Hammond's about as sinister as Walt Disney!" jokingly trying to imply that there isn't anything at all nefarious or malevolent about Hammond and it's aged perfectly in both the book and the 21st century *chefs kiss*
@foultarnished7990 Walt Disney was actually a massive dickhead irl lol. Especially to kids. I've seen a bunch of videos of behind the scenes stuff with him in them and he truly hated kids! Those videos ruined my childhood hahaha
@@foultarnished7990it was Grant, but yeah. I’m pretty sure that was intentional by Crichton
Yeah Crighton definitely did that on purpose. People in the 80's when this book was written that were paying attention knew exactly what Walt Disney was like. Hell people during Disney's lifetime knew he was a sociopath, despite his public persona.
Mo-DEM
While the nerd in my can appreciate why he chose to say it like that (knowing where the word "modem" comes from), it was absurd to pronounce it like that. Because even if you're a nerd that knows where the word comes from, you still don't pronounce it "moe-DHEM." Certainly no BIOLOGIST would say that in that time period.
Ice CREAM
Thank you Crichton for giving us a great book. 🦖Thank you Spielberg for a fun movie. 🦕Thank you for uploading the book. ❤
Personal least favorite character:
Lex > Hammond > Dodgson
I agree.
What'd Dodgson do?
I don’t think Lex realized anything weird was going on half the time 😂
Yeah it’s weird how sometimes she’s terrified for her life then the next minute she’s having fun or talking about something irrelevant
I wish they had kept the movie as close to the novel as possible it would have been far more enjoyable and interesting
Given it was the early 90s you gotta give them slack. They couldn’t fit this all in one movie and honestly they knocked it outta the park. No pun intended.
Lexie's character is fine, it's the narrator's voice for her that is so aggravating. The point Chrichton was trying to get across is how ill-equipped she is to confront the situation, and despite that, she comes around and becomes a survivor by the end.
It displays the ability to adapt to situations for even the least adept of humans, because we can cooperate, strategize, and overcome great obstacles, including but not limited to vicious and savage hunters.
Her entire storyline (and the entire book) is all about the essential nature of adaptation, but everyone misses it bc she starts out as such a mess.
I think she's like a 5 yr old, not a 8 yr old
Its amazing how much Spielberg took right off the page, and how much he clearly either loved or hated certain characters and changed them. Genero for example. And obviously his trademark twist on child characters.
Every time Lex talks I feel unbridled rage, Tim definitely got watered down when transferred to the movie but Lex at least wasn’t this annoying 😂
Why did the Apatosaurus cross the road? 🙃
Why?
To get to the other side 😂
Uhh to get apatosussy
Am I the only one who’s glad that Lex was re-written for the movie? Coz Jesus that kid would be fed to the raptors if I was in this book… 💀
This is totally going to give away my spot in the book, but....
GO 'DACTAL, GO 'DACTAL! 💃
😂😂😂
Update on my spot: "...splattering like a burst tomato on the walls..." is the best descriptive sentence I've read in a long time! 😊
Its funny how Crichton hated the lawyer far less than Speilberg.
0:46 Rambling, repeating himself, retelling old stories, random angry outbursts . . . ice cream. Is Hammond the 46th president?
The first half of this book was amazing. The second half is just annoying children, fetch quests, and so many inconsequential dinosaur attacks that they become mundane.
The second half does drag a little bit. Crichton books tend to be like that but the finish is worth it to me.At least in this one. "Rising Sun" tho...is another story. You can basically skip half of the book and it would make no difference to your understanding of the story.
The part where they go into the raptor nest to count deflates all tension. It is like they leveled up in a video game and feel safer wandering around.
It got a little stupid when the Rex turned into a dinosaur terminator targeting Grant and the kids but the raptor sequences were awesome
The character of the little girl was cringe, almost made me stop listening several times
Same
Jesus man lol Lex is like Pippin from LOTR causing nothing, but trouble for the group lmao
Love it but will someone feed Lex to a raptor
Crazy that Spielberg didn’t like the scenes with Grant and the kids around the island. Thought it was a continuation in the tour in a survival jungle way and he didn’t like it. And I couldn’t disagree more lol
Should’ve kept the river attack and the aviary sequence
I'm a fan of kids in general but lex was chokable.
Jesus christ i did not expect to find this much hostility towards a realistically annoying child
I think a big part of it is the narrator. He does a good job otherwise, but for Lex he always adopts an annoying whine when I think she should sound more frightened. I read the book years ago and I don't remember finding her as annoying as I do here.
Thankyou for the uploads for this book. They were sooo helpful!!
Thanks! Subscribe and support by paypal for more content! :)
To me the most obvious different between the books and the movies is that the book versions are all massive chads
That's funny how they defined object as just any library. In comp sci world it's an instance of a classes.
I was rooting for the T-Rex when Lex fell from the car.
Am I evil?
Could Lex have been written to be any more annoying?
Thx my g
Great book only complaint is that crichton didnt give everyone what they wanted and had lex eaten slowly alive by veliciraptors.
This little girl really needs to stop being a little jerk. My mom would say "I've got a whole box of new attitudes and it sounds like you need one, pick one out." And she would open up the junk drawer.
Lex survived because the Rex understood from the beginning how annoying she was
Ian Malcom is probably the least annoying and least obvious Micheal Crichton self insert out his entire oevure.
"Tall, thin, and big dicked, the devastatingly handsome super scientist moved with the fluid grace of a jaguar trained by swan in the art of elegance. He chuckled wryly to himself as he watched his peers bang rocks against soda cans in an attempt to reach the contents . . ."
Oh god, there are others?
@@NShomebase Quite a few. Especially in his later books. Like there's a Japanese character, the disfigured love interest, in "Rising Sun" who is basically him speaking about his prejudice against Japanese people. He even made a journalist who gave his book a bad review a child molester in one of his books, using the man's government name. One of his biggest flaws as a writer, to me was the way he couldn't separate himself/his views from his characters, really distracted from the stories he was telling at times.
Can never get myself to listen the the baby raptor part. Would’ve done what I could to save it 😂
Chuck Lexie to them, that's what I would have done
I went to look at a nonexistent (I guess) reply and accidentally hit the thumbs down button. I fixed it though. My bad. Also I covered my head with a pillow during the Nedry death scene. Like that would keep me from hearing it lol! Headphones.
