The younger brother from JW -Dislikes prolonged eye contact -Able to count number of teeth in dinosaur mouth from quick glance -Encyclopedic knowledge of correct number of teeth per dinosaur Y'all didn't pick up on the blatant clues that he was autistic?! The abandoned plot lines, cut scenes, and goofy editing make JW such a trip. "do you still have those matches?" is my favorite line. Also love the scene atop the waterfall with crisp rat and Chastain arguing and then suddenly not arguing because they didn't have a good take for the next line of dialog

It's also been 25 years. By Hollywood law, he can now be portrayed by Donald Sutherland or Michael Caine

The name's Vanessa Dodgson. I'm a sexy, sassy femme fatale who won't take no for an answer. I'm running Biosyn ever since my dad died of shaving cream poisoning

Brachiosaurus is the franchise's metaphor for "Maybe this power can be used for innocent and good purposes" The mansion shot was just to establish that it's big enough to be Act 2 and to ostensibly have a secret underground zoo and auction hall that were added without disturbing the man who's always home

There was a TON of setup for a "The girl has Dino DNA" reveal in this movie. What the gently caress was even the point of her? Also, this was such an homage to The Lost World that I have to imagine the entire audience went through this: "The plane left for the island. Hey, where's Maisie? Maisie where are you? Maisie seems to be missing from the manor!" Fuuuuuuuuuuuck that stupidass kid is gonna be a stowaway on the plane and make things More Complicated on the island "There's Maisie, hiding right over there, still in the manor!" Oh

Snowglobe of Doom posted:There were a few actual callback shots like Owen's reflection in the old Jeep's "Objects in mirror are larger than they appear" mirror when he was stalking Blue, and Rexy busting through a safety fence at the zoo right at the end. They also referenced the Lex Hiding in the Oven scene, and in case it didn't sink in, did it again on an even more 1 for 1 basis a bit later in the movie

sponges posted:I don’t get why Spielberg felt he needed to beg Crichton to write the novel in the first place. Just get a script written from scratch. "it's not even based on a book this time" is an actual complaint people voice about movie adaptation sequels!

sponges posted:That sentence doesn’t warrant an exclamation point. Ah let me bust out the Understanding Human Emotions and Displays flashcards (sweeps pile of Train magazines off your desk) An exclamation mark can be used to imply, "can you believe it!" which is asked rhetorically after describing a silly thing

In case you don't remember it, here's what those teasing bastards were reminiscing Nedry opened the car door, glancing back at the dinosaur to make sure it wasn't going to attack, and felt a sudden, excruciating pain in his eyes, stabbing like spikes into the back of his skull, and he squeezed his eyes shut and gasped with the intensity of it and threw up his hands to cover his eyes and felt the slippery foam trickling down both sides of his nose. Spit. The dinosaur had spit in his eyes. Even as he realized it, the pain overwhelmed him, and he dropped to his knees, disoriented, wheezing. He collapsed onto his side, his cheek pressed to the wet ground, his breath coming in thin whistles through the constant, ever-screaming pain that caused flashing spots of light to appear behind his tightly shut eyelids. The earth shook beneath him and Nedry knew the dinosaur was moving, he could hear its soft hooting cry, and despite the pain he forced his eyes open and still he saw nothing but flashing spots against black. Slowly the realization came to him. He was blind. The hooting was louder as Nedry scrambled to his feet and staggered back against the side panel of the car, as a wave of nausea and dizziness swept over him. The dinosaur was close now, he could feel it coming close, he was dimly aware of its snorting breath. But he couldn't see. He couldn't see anything, and his terror was extreme. He stretched out his hands, waving them wildly in the air to ward off the attack he knew was coming. And then there was a new, searing pain, like a fiery knife in his belly, and Nedry stumbled, reaching blindly down to touch the ragged edge of his shirt, and then a thick, slippery mass that was surprisingly warm, and with horror he suddenly knew he was holding his own intestines in his hands. The dinosaur had torn him open. His guts had fallen out. Nedry fell to the ground and landed on something scaly and cold, it was the animal's foot, and then there was new pain on both sides of his head. The pain grew worse, and as he was lifted to his feet he knew the dinosaur had his head in its jaws, and the horror of that realization was followed by a final wish, that it would all be ended soon
