I got to see it opening weekend with my mom and stepdad who took me to see it because I wasn’t 13 yet but was absolutely obsessed with dinosaurs to a more academic extent than your average 9 year old even has any business being. The box office had a giant hand sculpted pterodactyl in a nest on top of it which was one of the coolest things ever.
You should also definitely read the books, there is a much stronger emphasis on how capitalism makes everything shittier and endangers workers and compromises scientific integrity, which makes it especially shameful that toward the end of his life Crichton turned into a fuckin climate change denying right wing crank.
I’ll consider reading the books then. I wish I had seen it in the cinema but I must have been 4 or 5 when it released so I may have been a bit young. Although I did watch it on vhs at home like one year later, so…
Jurassic Park hands down.
yea me too. Saw it very young and it stuck with me
