It’s later shown again in the movie after the park went into utter chaos, Muldoon persuaded Ellie to haul ass to the shed without him in an effort to keep the raptors off her tracks. Although he died brutally, his act of selflessness will remain legendary.
Same here. I was 5 when this came out. This is first movie I remember seeing when I was little. I'm sure I'd gone to the movies before, but this is the only that comes to my memory. Great experience as a kid. I wish I could have experienced it again at the movies when it came out in 3D last year.
When I was a kid, I would play tug of war with my dog, and I pretended that the stuff animal was a Jurassic Park employee that I was trying to rescue from my dog who was supposed to be the Raptor. I would be yelling !Shoot Her, Shoot Her! at nobody.
Because they turned it from the HORROR novel that it was into a bunch of stupid un realistic shit for kids... seriously read the book. You'll get exactly what your asking for from your comment about danger and adventure.
I didn’t ONCE fear for the characters in Dominion. I mean for crying out loud, the worst thing the main villain did was eat A SINGLE BUG!!! *MAYBE* two!
This one scene sums up the entire movie. They think they have it under control then everything goes to shit really fast. They understate these creatures that they have very little experience with.
In the very first scene you ideally want to condense the deep themes into a single scene to show what the movie is all about, and Jurassic Park does that very well.
There are only a handful of films that you can watch the first 30 seconds of and *know* that the film is going to be awesome. This is one of those films.
Props to Muldoon (and the actor who plays him) for displaying PROPER trigger discipline. It's such a small but important detail so many films get wrong, especially when dealing with something serious like firearms.
I don't think they expected the raptor to actually charge the door, and later they say they did this with 7 other raptors before, this main scene is to set the tone of the film and also introduce us to muldoon and the female raptor alpha, to show how smart and dangerous she is for later on. But still this opening scene is just genius, John Williams creepy and haunting score, the cut back shots of the stoic men all armed and the amount of security which makes us wonder what's coming, the box itself being brought through the trees, the raptor inside which is never really shown that much to keep up suspense and reveal. then the action, the transition between human eye/close up shots and raptor, the screaming, the yelling, the panic, the sounds of gunfire echoing in the last shot etc. Spielberg at his finest right here.
The biggest thing to take away from this scene is that it tells you that it's going to go south later on, and Spielberg made the smart choice in slowly building up to the T-Rex and Raptors that you feel the full effect of what the movie is trying to achieve. You don't see that too often in a movie like this these days.
TheNeXusCore9032 You got that right! The only filmmakers these days that come to mind who are able to do a perfect slow build up to the big reveal are J.J. Abrams and David Fincher.
I remember being on edge the whole movie after this scene. The suspense was really built up. You also got the sense that these creatures were just as smart as people and very dangerous. No matter what engineering precautions people took something was bound to go wrong.
TheNeXusCore9032 How does this truly make a Movie good though? Sure it makes the first viewing of the movie something special which is important, but I feel like any viewing after is less special. It doesn't help make a movie timeless by adding suspense per say. We already know now what the T-Rex looks like, and even though a cool build up is there its less of a satisfying finish with each viewing. Building up and showing the monster late in the movie is a cool thing and I do like it dont get me wrong, but the main build up in this movie was a creature (that everyone's seen in books or on tv before) that just happend to look revolutionary for its time. Having the reveal of a monster early on can still create suspense! It's just that its so rarely done that we don't recognize it. I think Jeepers creepers is a good example of this. We are shown in the movie many times what he looks like, but he only appears when he needs to, by showing us the threat we know that threat and can therfor be afraid. Movies both now and in the past are great, but just in different ways.
I'm an early 2000s kid and this was one of my childhood movies. The kids who are now growing watching Jurassic World will never understand what I felt watching this movie.
I turn 30 this year and I have a 1 year old. my boy will have the same experience with movies as I did growing up. Jurassic Park, the original Star Wars movies, Saving Private Ryan (we’ll wait till he’s 4 for that one), Band of Brothers, Chuck Norris films, Commando, Predator. We’ll get him squared away.
One thing im really love about this scene is how they dont show you the velociraptor save for a quick shot of its eyes. It really adds to the tension. When the guy gets attacked and the alarm blaring it gets intense fast
I agree - and what's truly horrific is you just hear the gatekeeper screaming in agony, to tell you that inside the container the raptor is just tearing into him, ripping him apart. That is way scarier than some cheap CGI quick-shot of a guy getting picked up and ripped in half like in the new movies. Feels like they tried to soften up the sequel movies so as not to traumatize the kids.
I think it's the cut back between Muldoons eyes and the raptors that's tense asf. Like the raptor is CHALLENGING Muldoon like "you don't get it, I'm not stuck on this island with you, You're stuck here with ME" and does not stop Ripping Geoffrey apart in front of everyone as an act of sheer DEFIANCE Man Vs Nature Chaos
Even for how much of a masterpiece this film is. It's not flawless. It had some weird logic like the cliff appearing out of freaking nowhere in the T-Rex's cage and Alan saying a weird fact that T-Rex's can't see people if they stand completely still which is VERY false.
As a sheltered little girl I had to BEG my mother to take me to see JP in the 90's. This opening scene scared my mother so badly I can tell she ALMOST pulled me from the theater! But the Brachiosaur scene (amazing in it's day) changed her mind! She gasped in amazement! She sat fixed in the seat for the rest of the movie! 😊JP1 is a keystone childhood memory for me, where she left the theater praising it and talking about dino's with me!
bunny the clasher Boring? Haha it wasn’t boring. JP3s main problem was the fact that it was badly written, too short, and lacked the wonder of the first two.
The opening scenes/titles to Jaws, Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters, and Back To The Future always stick out in my head as the best and super competent openings to films ever. The best way to introduce you into a world flickering from a projector.
Same age as me when I started watching this film. I watched it so much I wore out two full VCR tapes and it's still my favourite movie (I watch it atleast once every year).
One of the greatest movie beginnings ever IMO. Jurassic Park in many ways was really a form of a horror movie, which isn't so much doable today as the public is so used to seeing special effects like this now. But at the time, this was REALLY scary.
It's still absolutely doable. What the other films lacked was suspense, restraint or any semblance of human drama to make you care for the people involved. A lot of the puppets and CGI are well hidden and used sparingly, it gives the final appearance of the dinosaurs much more menace.
David Curry It probably is more doable, but audiences are a lot more conditioned to such special effects today whereas in 1993 they were something totally new that no one had never seen before.
Oh I absolutely agree. Take out the dinosaurs other than the raptors and this is a straight up horror movie! But David Curry is right, no restraint at all in modern movies like this. The Raptors aren't seen until the power scene and even then quite sparingly and perfectly timed and laid out with quick glimpses. Only at he kitchen scene do we truly see them and by then we already know what the deal is. Also the description that Sam Neil gives at the start helps build reputation, bolstered by the guy that yells "shoot her" (cant remember his name) talking about how they should all be destroyed and that hey are clever a third of the way through the movie. It is Steven Spielberg's masterpiece in my eyes. Its not quite a Sci-fi, Horror, Monster or Action movie but is more than the sum of its parts. It was released as a 12PG in Ireland... No way would it be now if re-released. I will also say that the music is a critical part. Without that it would be none of what I said on its own.The director of Jurassic world gave out stink because the studio put the main Dino in the TV advert. Can't expect much suspense now... Not that there was much anyway but yea. The tame raptors kinda killed any scary bits that could have been. It helped that raptors are perceived as the most terrifyingly dangerous animal to have ever lived. (imagine walking down a long street, towards a cross roads. A 6ft tall raptor stops in the middle of the cross, turns its head to look at you, more powerful legs than an ostrich, clawed arms and a head like an alagator mixed with a bird of pray. bad, bad day)Tame raptors is cool but not scary, I think they forgot scary raptors are also cool
I love this scene it really sets the tone for the movie and it takes the audience by absolute surprise, also the whole thing is genius: The music sets in motion the suspense, the sheer terror on Jeopherys face, the desperation of the workers trying to get the raptor off their coworker, the begging in Roberts voice to shoot the raptor, then there's the raptors sheer determination to eat her prey despite all the tasers on her she wouldn't let up this scene is 10 out of 10
0:00-0:46 One of the most unique and really chilling opening titles in cinema history, they are so rare, i love the silent, haunting and misteryous atmosphere
The opening Universal shot with the Jurassic Park logo still sends shivers down my spine. The subtle jungle sounds in the beginning and the music is just genius. You had seen the trailers, you "knew" what was coming and the intro only intensified that feeling. As a 9 year old kid, this was true movie magic for me and to this day, i see this film as a glorious testimony to what the silver screen is capable of in enchanting its viewers and take us to worlds we never thought off visiting them...
This entire scene is is masterfully shot, from the lighting and "point of view" shots to back and forth close up shots of the eyes between the raptor and muldoon etc. i love how Spielberg learned from jaws that to create great suspense you need to show as little as possible and build up the reveal of the creature, add in camera work and cinematography as well as a kick ass score/soundtrack and bingo, cinema history.
Oh even the original trailer was genius: No single scene from the music. Just scientist, amber and a voice telling the story of a park that made incredible things a reality. Nothing like trailers from today.
Hahahaah totally, first the jungly feeling ( i myself have been to the costa rican pacific coast and it does sound like this at night!) then you have that heavy bass pounding thru your body with the angelical chorus afterwards. Me been a 9 year old as well knew at the theater that i was gonna be shit scare thruout the whole damn movie.
A little thing I love is that Muldoon says shoot HER. Not “it” or “him” (other characters refer to the dinosaurs as male when they are all female). Just shows even more how much he respects them.
I love how the music in the opening credits wastes no time in conveying what you will encounter in this film: Something beautiful but terrifying. Amazing work by John Williams.
+Hypertran Actually, here we can see the standard Stormtrooper training. Being able to pull the trigger is enough to pass, nobody mentioned anything about the target.
This scene tripped me the hell out so much when I first saw it in the theater when I was 5. Completely blew my mind. I was a total dinosaur nut when I was a child and my family all of a sudden told me that we were going out for the night. They didn't say where, but I just played along. Then, next thing I know we pull in the parking lot of a movie theater and I start getting excited. We walk by the promotional poster for Jurassic Park outside and I crack a smile while feeling the biggest sense of anticipation and excitement that I had felt up till that point in my life. THEN, I hear my stepfather say "3 adults and 2 children for Jurassic Park, please." Pure Bliss. A few popcorns and drinks later we're in our seats and the show is starting. The jungle sounds roll in and I feel a since of adventure and strange familiarity, THEN, the thunderous rumble of mystery, fear, and a deep sense primal doom smacks you right in face as John Williams' incredible score takes the reins. A low rumble sounds in the distance, the trees shake and whip, the tractor bursts through the jungle carrying the crate with an unknown manifest inside. Muldoon and his men stare and wait ominously for the dangerous cargo to arrive. Orders and commands are barked and the men slide back cautiously allowing the crate to land on the platform. Muldoon instructs his inferiors and several men go to the crate to push it into position, then that WICKED scream pierces through the already tense atmosphere, my jaw drops. I'm glued to the screen as the crate shakes with the men backing off. Muldoon yells: "AND PUSH!" and the crate locks into place. Jophree begins climbing up the side of the crate and a deep, venomous exhale comes from the unseen menace. I get that unmistakable feeling of "Oh no, this is not good..." Then, the gate raises and the score fires back up reaching an Apex, a demonic shout/squak noise explodes and the outline of a man sized, bipedal therapodic monstrosity charges to the gate with all of it's might....TOTAL CHAOS. Jophree hits the ground, the crate rolls back, Muldoon's men are in disarray...and Jophree gets SUCKED back towards the opening of the crate. My young mind had not comprehended that a grown man could be pulled around like that with that amount of force. It didn't look like he was being pulled by a man sized animal, but rather an unmatched force of death and destruction of which had not been witnessed by man. Screams fill the air as Muldoon and his men scurry firing tazers, stun guns, and cattle prods to incapacitate the beast. Jophree is lifted up and down as the monstrosity displays it's power. My mind starts racing and I close my eyes for a split second, but of course, childhood curiosity gets the W and I crack my eyes open for a peak. Sparks flying and buzzing, it's the epic staredown between Muldoon and The entity of chaos. The pure dread, fear, and disbelief of Muldoon, the cold will, focus and determination of the predator. The animal then mounts the strength to move and releases several strained exhales to get it's target. Muldoon's repeated war cries of "SHOOT HER!" repeat. Sparks fly, Jophree starts to slip away, and then something inconceivable happens before my young eyes. The shape of Muldoon's arm appears as a gigantic mouth with blood thirsty lips swallowing Jophree whole as he slips away. I swear to God that's exactly what I saw. I don't know how much more receptive you are as a child to the deep subconscious/unconscious underpinnings of symbolism and metaphor, but that image was so incredibly intense and surreal that I had lost a sense time and place for a split second. Just a split second...then as gunshots echo and fade, Genarro's reflection appears and everything is normal again. After that assault of my senses, I was on my way to a 2 hour long extravaganza of oooos and ahhhhhs, laughs, smiles, jumps, and total amazment that has stuck with me till this very day. Speilberg is a fucking master.
when i first saw this on my VHS tape, I barley knew any english, so i though he was saying shootah and the guy who was being eaten was called shootah. So since I watched this film over and over again on a daily basis I kept going like "NOOO SHOOTAH DON"T DIE"
Had this on VHS as a kid, and this scene always had me covering my eyes! That shot of the guys hand slowly slipping away, and yet not one glimpse of a dinosaur. Perfect way to open a film and get the audience hooked straight away.
You know, with all the money they had in building this place, they could've at least built an automatic open/close door on that cage instead of having that guard open it manually.
I think they may have been rubber bullets, as they presumably didn't want to damage such a valuable specimen, and it still kills Joffrey even after being shot at several times.
I remember how the opening music always gave me chills. And it still does. Perfect sound to represent the dark prehistoric jungle feel of Jurassic park, and seeing the dark side of bringing back ancient predators.
I notice that you never actually see any shooting during the movie, it’s always implied, I think it adds to the suspense. Like in this scene , only gun shots, the scene where he is ambushed by the raptor outside the power station, he never gets a shot off, and in the tourist center when the raptor breaks through the glass, gun shots only heard over the phone. It’s as if they when they filmed it they psychologically negated our best defense against the creatures by never letting us see one get shot or killed. They never gave us the satisfaction of seeing it in the movie. Also, I almost figure it’s as if the raptors know that “guns” are the only real chance we have at stopping them and they position themselves in a way that makes it hard or impossible for us to use them effectively. They don’t know what it is but they understand it as a disembodied weapon and they know how to counter it. But I might be reaching too far with that one
Others have pointed this out, but I love how the opening to Jurassic Park is comparable to the opening of Jaws. The horror of someone being violently thrashed around by an unseen force is quite terrifying, and a super effective way to start a movie!
Spielberg probably learned from Jaws and the problems he encountered with using the mechanical shark that often didn't want to work in the water that sometimes seeing it less is better. You really don't actually see the dangerous dinosaurs until the power goes out.
It's very chilling that no one bothered shooting the raptor as it dragged the guy in, I suppose it was showing that Ingen valued a living Raptor more than the life of their employee. Too bad Muldoon was the only one looking out for the guy, he would have shot it if his hands were free...
I was thinking the exact same thing. At least three of them have M16A2s. Just stick them into the shipping container, flip the safety to three round burst, and start squeezing the trigger.
A Velociraptor IS valued more then a human (costarican poor worker) life in the movie exactly as it would be in reality where people life is valued far far less then a big sack of money (probably an adult female dinosaur would be priceless nowadays).
@Bergr B Well, that much in R&D, maybe. Probably less valuable than the average yearly salary, when it comes to actually making another. Once you've done it once, it's easy to do it again
@Kevin McMahon Well, if the company successfully covers it up, yes. But imagine if all the workers started quitting, or if they got sued. If I was running that company, I'd prefer making another raptor. Really, it would be cheaper just to make a new raptor. Heck, best case scenario, the raptor lets go of the guy once the shooting starts, and both get away with just injuries instead of being killed.
@@Horseshoecrabwarrior They uhhh....they did get sued. That was the whole reason for Dr Grant and the rest of them going to the park in the first place. Hammond was facing multi million dollar lawsuit by the workers family and his investors were threatening pulling his funding. In the novel...they WERE trying to cover it up. The worker in the book was attacked and mauled and the ingen lawyers tried to call it a machinery accident if I recall. Been a while since I read the book.
This one time in college, I was outside a classroom, and the class before mine would always be watching a movie or TV scene. As soon as I heard “Shoot her!”, I knew which scene and movie they were watching this time
I will always remember this scene as a kid. It was quite scary but I loved the movie as a kid. Now as an adult, I can see some symbolism in the opening. Really solid opening that really shows even at our best, nature will always react with equal force
Exactly. It also symbolises how they were under the illusion they were in control. Like Ellie says to Hammond "You never had control. That's the illusion". If they really were, that wouldn't have happened
@@aaronkenyon7112 It is the big theme of JP. It is a very telling tale of biting off more than you can chew. It also made the dinos more believable as they are animals not demons.
How at the age of 35 have I only just realised the shot of the trees before we see the crate, Spielberg was trying to fool us into thinking a dinosaur was about to appear. I mean it even sounds like Rex’s footsteps! Now I feel incredibly stupid.
I adore this opening to the film, as it fits with the movies themes and overall plot. The book opening is just as haunting and terrifying because of the suspense, the buildup. Both are equally great for own reasons. I just wish we got to see a true adaption of Jurassic Park on the big screen. More dinosaurs, the horror element, the sheer brutality of the books, and genius allegory to government corruption and greedy corporations
1:12 My favorite scene in the movie. It reflects the true horror that's coming, because it shows that they know it's coming. They're locked and loaded for it.
You could see how uneasy he was. He took every precaution: all his men armed to the teeth and his plan to put the raptor into the paddock and his plan still went south.
J A Yeah back when acting was great and these type of scenes were believable. I swear it seems like the franchise took Muldoon’s Raptor speech and ran with it all the way to the crapper with the sequels.
This is where the whole raptor-human bond thing with Chris Pratt in JW seems so ridiculous. These are wild predators which cannot be tamed! Take me back to the original movies when they were actually scary.
To me as a kid the scariest scene was when our dear warden goes to kill the escaped Trio of raptors, sadly well... You saw what happend as a kid that sudden face of the raptor just scared me shitless.
I begged my parents to let me see this when this came out. I was 8 at the time. As a kid, this movie was INTENSE. I remember my excitement and fear. It is truly a masterpiece, and a worthy adaptation of the stellar novel.
As an adaption of the novel... it's not so good. They changed way too much shit. If you read the book you wouldn't actually be able to say what you did. The book is superior on all fronts. From the characters to the events to the dinosaurs.
I'm not sure what would have been a better beginning, this one (which I love, btw) or the novels opening where it's at a Costa Rican hospital and a worker was brought to a doctor with slash marks and saliva on his chest while the JP employee kept telling her it was a construction accident.
Wesley Sorrell I think this one is better. Gives more thrill and fear mixed with the confusion, rather than mostly confusion and a bit of fear of the unknown.
Was this scene in the novel? I'm right about to start reading it (well, I've read the intro [the InGen incident]) and i saw that the scene with the little girl wandering off and being bitten was on there
+TigerLily, this particular scene was not in the novel. The little girl wandering off and being bitten in The Lost World actually comes from the Jurassic Park novel. But they do it differently and it goes more in depth.
This opening scene is hands down one of my favorite scenes in the movie. The music, tension and film work are spectacular. It is especially smart for Spielberg to show parts of the Raptors inside the cage, and leaving their full reveal later. Also, it was equally smart to have these raptors to have them showcase this horror. This adding to the theme of Jurassic Park, essentially being a dark Disney World. Behind all of its splendor and wonder, it is a horrific place that will bite back. I could go on gushing, but I love Jurassic Park. It's easily one of the most important films in cinematic history. This along with Terminator 2 led the way to CGI and how films are shaped today. For better or worse.
I love how Spielberg and company were so smart at keeping you guessing what you were gonna see, they didn’t show you anything, they showed you the gentler brachiosaurus and the sick triceratops which was really cool but they kept the carnivores hidden not revealed until the raining T Rex scene which is so masterfully done. What a damn movie
I love the fact the ‘Big One’ is actually a real character in this movie, out for revenge on humans who have locked her in a cage - this is a subtext that not a lot of people know exists in the JP universe. This would later be replicated with Blue in Jurassic World. During the ambush scene, when Muldoon utters those immortal words ‘clever girl’, he’s ironically praising the ‘Big One’s’ intelligence in co-ordinating a very clever pre-meditated attack and for finally getting the better of him. When Muldoon is killed, it zooms in on her. She’s almost saying to the viewer “I told you i would escape and get my revenge”. That moment is foreshadowed in this scene where we are shown her eyes through the cage, zoomed in and locked on Muldoon. We see a near identical shot in the ambush scene, but this time she is in her natural environment free of any restrictions, electrified fences, cages and is able to express her aforementioned greater intelligence.
What the hell are you smoking? Get a grip. The Big One is an animal (and acts like it) like every other dinosaur, not a character. It's not "out for revenge", it's hunting like most wild animals do when they are set free from a cage, and since Muldoon is hunting them too, this is a predatory challenge of minds since the raptor is extremely aggressive and Muldoon has to rely on wits. Revenge is an action that another party does to get even or retaliate. I don't see that all between Muldoon and The Big One because animals don't get "revenge". Don't put that Jurassic World kid shit into something great as this.
@@Amp661 I hate to break it to you, but JP was made for kids dude…..The ‘Big One’ is indeed a character and a big sub-plot in the movie was her outwitting Muldoon thus confirming the chaos theory.
Wasn’t Jaws after JP? Although I love how he basically foreshadowed modern governments in Jaws with them wanting to keep the beach open despite the danger. Very worrying that that’s still so relevant today.
Such an AMAZING movie! Universal and Steven Spielberg were so on point during this ERA of film! Wish I could go back in time and see this in theaters on opening night.
Barely see a thing. Sound, camera work, suspense, a glimpse of an eye - still highly rewatchable and terrifying to this day. Brilliant. Even the scenes with cgi never sacrificed any of the aforementioned. Todays directors need to learn from lessons that they struggle to because computers make anything possible.
Poor workers, you have to wonder what they've seen, I bet when they first saw dinosaurs, they had the exact same awe that Ellie and Alan had, but by this scene, any enjoyment of seeing them had been completely wiped out. Now they're just another dangerous wild animal.
You can literally see it, you have a small army with tazers and M16s aimed at the box. Not even a rabid, starved tiger would get this level of security.
Those weren't tasers; those were stun guns (basically cattle prods). These merely cause pain from the electrical shocks, which the raptor clearly could ignore. If they had used ACTUAL tasers, which produce continuous muscle contractions, the raptor would have been incapacitated, and the gatekeeper's life would have been saved.
Re-watched the movie recently and got so sad when Muldoon died because he is, with Malcolm, the most lucid character in the film...and we see that from the very first scene. He may be a hunter but no matter if he hunts a leopard, a lion or velociraptor, he knows it is a force of nature to be respected, not a teddy bear and not a show. And we see that from the very first scene.
+Christopher Colasurdo come on man you cant figure it out? you have a monster you cant see. then you have a guy attacked by the monster but you can only see his upper half and have to "imagine" whats happening to his lower half. its straight out of the opening attack from jaws. spielberg is basically giving himself an homage.
I see the similarity but wether it was intentional I don't know. Although Spielberg can't resist that kind of thing, there was like three jaws references in Jurassic World, and he didn't even direct it.
I was blown away watching this in the theater for the first time. This scene is the best opening for a movie ever. I still love watching it to this day.
3:01 is the shot i remember as a kid got me hooked, the way the camera comes down on this box, the smoke, the music, the shouts, and mixed with it all, this screech that just sounds so alien. What a start to a franchise.
I really hate to say this since I loved the new movie. But I still can't help to or make myself feel the same intensity, ominous suspense, wonder, and depth of the first film. Does anyone else feel this way?
+Nathan Corley I feel that the new film was utter crap, and had no sense of wonder or genuine suspense at all. It was just a shlocky monster movie with crap effects, bad acting and horrible storytelling in general. No dinosaur film will ever come close to emulating the wonderment of JP.
Well I wouldn't really say that about the new film. I liked it. i just felt it lacks a certain amount the genuine suspense, wonderment, and darkness the first one had. But again just by certain but important amount. Like 20 or more, maybe even 30 %
I feel the same way. This movie always gives me this uncomfortable "what if this is a real possibility/what's gonna happen next" kind of feeling. I get chills every time i see this movie, especially this scene. Jurassic World didn't have this intensity to it. It wasn't scary at all
+no hassle It was a good movie, but having such a monumentally good predecessor it is always gonna seem bad in comparison. I enjoyed it, and I think I am going to enjoy the sequel of Jurassic World even more. I got a feeling the sequel is going to be amazing. I hope they take the military route, having soldiers deal with Dinosaurs. Then in the third having an actual full scale city problem, imagine Raptors roaming the city. I love dino movies and Jurassic Park is the only franchise that can even do it remotely right so I hope they never stop making them.
The actors delivery of that dreadful line is incredible to this day, I’m gonna hear him screaming SHOOT HER from this film forever, truly an amazing film
after having watched this movie over 10+ times, I still wonder: 1. why wasn't the cage "locked" into place? 2. When the cage rolled away, why did the Raptor decide to stay in it (and start eating the worker) instead of jumping out and escaping?
theres a video in wich a leopard is set free from the cage where it was ( in the backpart of a truck) the guard opens the cage and the leopard could have easily escaped but instead it decided to stay and attack the guard. its called animal behaviour mate . we certainly cant understand it
i believe its more on the lines of just pure hatred towards the humans, shes born into a strange new environment with little understanding of it so she decides to lash out at anything and everything just because she can. I recall hearing that later in the stay she killed a bunch of her fellow raptors and became the pack leader so obviously shes got a few anger issues haha
looking at it now, I'd agree with you. For such expensive, precious, and dangerous creatures, you'd think the cargo box would lock into that high tech fence-in. Not only that, why even have a "gatekeeper"? I'm sure for the amount of resources that company had, they could've easily had an automatic door, or even a crane to lift that door.
Heres something that has bothered me. what happened after this scene? the guns going off at the end don't sound like tranquilizers (i believe they usually use gas not gun powder to shoot) but shot guns; so wouldn't 'The Big One' have been killed then....
Jai Hensgen Well those soldiers aren't very accurate, and I think the writers did so to make the dinosaurs look powerful and dangerous. Basically even guns cannot easily bring them down. But I believe they killed it a little after it killed the gatekeeper.
My favourite. I remember finding a Jurassic park 3 raptor toy in a toy shop when I was a kid and it made that exact sound and it was as if I had found the holy grail
