Netflix | Original Jurassic Park Trilogy

JURASSIC PARK!!! The original Jurassic Park Trilogy is now on Netflix as of June! So you need to watch them stat! 

No but seriously how awesome is this, you can literally watch the movie that changed CGI as we know it. The original Jurassic Park set the standard in melding both Animatronics & CGI bringing to life Michael Crichton' vision. 

Individual reviews for these movies will be coming so be on the look out for those! In the mean time make sure to check out these films on Netflix!

As a little bonus. I highly recommend going and buying this sweet Clever Girl shirt from the Chivery!

Netflix Movie of the Week | Jurassic Park

Director: Steven Spielberg

Writer: Michael Crichton

Originally Aired: June 11th 1993

If you haven't read my original post yet the original Jurassic Park trilogy is now streaming on Netflix! The start of June Netflix began streaming these and as a huge fan of the original movie I had to write up a review of Jurassic Park.

Michael Crichton laid the ground work in his book with a crazy concept to create living and breathing dinosaurs using clone technology. The creative part of the story to me when I first saw this movie was how they found millions of years old dinosaur blood. A Mosquito. 

This scene pictured above was one of the most revolutionary scenes in all of movies. The first time we got to see a live dinosaur on a movie screen! Of course CGI has come a long way since then but this scene, at the time, was beyond exciting. Steven Spielberg wanted to meld both Animatronics as well as CGI to create this movie and he did just that. 

You follow the billionaire John Hammond as he recruits the top archaeologists and doctors to come sign off on his new amusement park, Jurassic Park. Dr. Grant, Dr. Sattler along with Dr. Malcolm are the three experts that Hammond hires to consult him on his park. The Dr's along with Hammond's grandchildren set out through the park.

To not spoil it all for you but poo hits the fan, the parks chief computer network engineer laid forth a plan to steal dinosaur embryo's to sell to Biosyn for $1.5 million. This coupled with a tropical storm oh and of course dinosaurs the group struggles to make it out of the park alive.

So, have you seen the original Jurassic Park before? Knowing that this released in 1993 what do you think of it?

Jurassic World: Info & Brief NON-Spoiler Recap

Tonight the family got together to go see Jurassic World. Warrenton 8 Cinema and others theaters had early screenings tonight, Thursday the 11th. If you have read my latest post about Jurassic World you'll remember I was nervous about this movies advertising push would outweigh the movie. This was definitely not the case. 

First off this is a NON-Spoiler review which means I'll be brief and vague until my full review within the next day or two.

Let it be known that Isla Nublar and Jurassic World have been up and running per the original dream of John Hammond. Jurassic World although thriving with 20,000 plus visitors in attendance while we watch the movie, cost of operations are rising. So they need to reinvigorate the park thus the hybrid Indominus Rex was created. 

Jurassic World was very stunning and quoting John Hammond they "Spared no expense" with this park. If you're familiar with the first three installments of the Jurassic Park movies then you know every one of them start off with those "Oh Ah" Dr. Malcom moments. They never end the way it begins. This movie is no different. In the beginning they state that they want a Bigger, Louder dinosaur with more teeth. They sure got it with Indominus Rex. 

All I'll say is that you have to have this movie on the "To See" list for this weekend and if you're busy this weekend make sure you get there next week. VeganVixen I'm talking to you! When you do go see it make sure to let us know what you thought! 

Make sure to check back in for a full review of this movie and more later on.  

Oh and yes, Mr. DNA is back! Wait... is this a spoiler? My bad.

Chris Pratt & Jurassic World

This is finally the week. The week we have been waiting for since 2001 and the last installment of the Jurassic Park franchise. To be honest with you I didn't care much for 2 or 3 so really I have been waiting since Jurassic Park came out in 1993!

I am however a bit nervous about the movie and here is why. This movie has been advertised a lot lately. Every channel I flip too, every isle at the store has Chris Pratt on the cover of GQ promoting Jurassic World. Not all movies that push advertising this hard are bad, I'm sure this movie will be amazing. But there is that off chance that they push advertising so much that they get as many patrons as they possibly can into the theaters opening weekend before word of mouth spreads about how bad the movie actually is. Some examples: Anchorman 2 // Noah

Again not all movies that have this big of an advertising campaign are bad, most in fact turn out great and I'm sure this will turn out great as well. I'm just hoping that all the hype is matched by a great movie experience.

Do you agree? What are you thoughts? Let me know in the comments below!

Twenty-two years after the events of Jurassic Park, Isla Nublar now features a fully functioning dinosaur theme park, Jurassic World, as originally envisioned by John Hammond. After 10 years of operation and visitor rates declining, in order to fulfill a corporate mandate, a new attraction is created to re-spark visitor's interest, which backfires horribly.
