"But, John. If the Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the pirates don't eat the tourists"
Dr. Ian Malcolm
Jurassic Park
1993
That quote was classic. This movie was brilliant. I have to admit, before picked the film for today I really wanted to make a transition from animation to real life characters. But, before I completely left that genre, I had to do Jurassic Park.
Please agree with me that this film was eye opening and one of Spielberg's best displays of character on film. Spielberg is a class act. Vividly capturing audiences for decades and of course enlisting and evoking thought beyond nature occurrences.
Jurassic Park was by far a "wow" factor for me. The animatronics, the whole theme park idea, the safari like tour, the cloning, the labs, the deceit from an internal employee (Wayne Knight), the attention to detail, and of course the scenery. Jurassic Park did not stop at mediocre, it went beyond technology and creativity with confidence and energy beyond anyones expectations.
I know some talented folks. They are creative, energetic, witty and outgoing. I think I am drawn to movies and film because I seek to find that escape that allows creativity to be displayed.
What was the lesson in Jurassic Park? What was the idea really about?
All I know is that I had a preconceived notion about dinosaurs growing up. I had a preconceived notion about archeology and the past and even extinct creatures in general. Bringing this story to life, was like icing on a cake, it was the perfect topping to a sundae, it was the best au jus on a steak. Memories are about imagination and recollection. Jurassic Park was entertainment, with a historical approach.
I will always remember the first time I saw this film, and I will always be grateful for how Spielberg brought history to life, and told a story through exquisite detail.
Bravo Spielberg! You are a genius.
