Speaker 1: Welcome to Jurassic Pals, the No Dunks summer podcast project
Speaker 1: where we're watching every movie from the Jurassic Park franchise.
Speaker 2: Today we tackle the.
Speaker 1: Head scratching sequel, The Lost World Jurassic Park. I'm Jay
Speaker 1: Skeets here in the Classic Factory, and alongside me, as always,
Speaker 1: he loves the baby Dinos tasmelas.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, I sure do. I also love you just
Speaker 3: rolling off the Jurassic Pals. I think that's more entertaining
Speaker 3: than the actual movie.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, thank you. Next to him, next to task,
Speaker 1: don't let this guy loose in San Diego, it's the
Speaker 1: Bearded one, Trey Herby, Hey yo. And last but not
Speaker 1: least over Yonder, this is a man that knows that
Speaker 1: thirty minutes is half an hour. It's super producer JD. Hello, Hello, JD.
Speaker 1: One of the weirdest parts of this movie. Why did
Speaker 1: he say that we don't have a.
Speaker 2: Lot of clarification in this movie? I think, Oh boy boy.
Speaker 1: Appreciate you all checking out the podcast here. Maybe you're
Speaker 1: watching on YouTube. Hit the like button, subscribe, share the show,
Speaker 1: podcast listeners, five star ratings and reviews. Yes, this is
Speaker 1: our second Jurassic Park. Here from the entire movie franchise.
Speaker 1: We really loved Jurassic Park, the original ten out of ten.
Speaker 2: Go check out that.
Speaker 1: Pod if you haven't already. But this one, the Lost
Speaker 1: World Jurassic Park, came out May twenty three of nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety seven. The budget seventy three million, so they gave
Speaker 1: Spielberg another ten million from the first one. Here go
Speaker 1: have some fun with this. It did well.
Speaker 2: It's done well. Look it grossed.
Speaker 1: Nearly six hundred and twenty million dollars worldwide and it
Speaker 1: actually set a new opening weekend record at the time,
Speaker 1: so it popped for people to go see it. People
Speaker 1: were excited about the see absolutely, and then they probably
Speaker 1: left a little disappointed. The skinny is a research team
Speaker 1: is sent to the Jurassic Park site b Island to
Speaker 1: study the dinosaurs there, while an in gen team approaches
Speaker 1: with another agenda. Oh boy, run time about two hours
Speaker 1: and ten minutes too long? Is the answer?
Speaker 2: Stars Jeff Goldbloom. He's back.
Speaker 1: He's the main guy. This time. We got Julianne Moore,
Speaker 1: Pete Posselthwaite. Oh yeah, I hope I'm saying that correctly.
Speaker 1: Rest in Pete's rest in Pete to Pete Posselthwaite and
Speaker 1: then a young Vince Vaughan. It's also in this movie,
Speaker 1: and it's directed by Steven Spielberg for the final time.
Speaker 1: This will be his last go here in the Jurassic
Speaker 1: Park franchise. Obviously did the first one, that summer blockbuster
Speaker 1: that it was, and then he did a sequel, and
Speaker 1: he seemed to even hate this movie.
Speaker 4: He doesn't like doing sequels.
Speaker 1: No, he doesn't. Good for good reason, I think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't like doing sequels.
Speaker 5: And apparently Michael Crichton was basically asked to write a
Speaker 5: second book as well. He wrote it in Spielberg's like, Eh,
Speaker 5: some good ideas, but I got my own things I
Speaker 5: want to do. I'm only doing one sequel, so I'm
Speaker 5: jamming all.
Speaker 2: The ideas and here that I can.
Speaker 1: All right, let's make our way through this movie. We
Speaker 1: start with a look at and I'll say it correctly
Speaker 1: this time.
Speaker 6: Is La Sona.
Speaker 1: This is Site B, the code name for Site B
Speaker 1: here by the in Gen company. It's located eighty seven
Speaker 1: miles southwest of our og Dino island that we had
Speaker 1: in the first one. Is La Nublar, not Isla to island.
Speaker 4: We wish we know it's the Spanish word r.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's right, that's right.
Speaker 5: It's confirmed eighty seven miles away from the other island.
Speaker 1: Huh yeah, yeah, they're all clustered, I guess together.
Speaker 2: That's a crazy plan.
Speaker 5: Eighty seven miles isn't that close to trans because what
Speaker 5: they're telling us is they're making the dinosaurs here and
Speaker 5: then traveling ninety miles nautically, Yeah, to bring the dinosaurs
Speaker 5: to the other place.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I feel like if.
Speaker 5: John Hammond would have told people that's how they're producing
Speaker 5: the dinosaurs, it'd be like, no, way.
Speaker 2: That can't work. You can't transport a dino that far.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Every time we've seen a dinosaur transporter it goes.
Speaker 1: For Yeah, it's a weird logistics there that he decided
Speaker 1: to like fold into this whole play. Yeah. Well, we
Speaker 1: start this off with a British couple. They are vacationing
Speaker 1: there by the island on the island from their private yacht.
Speaker 1: They're sipping champagne, they're eating roast beef, they got some
Speaker 1: prawns on the way all and their youngest daughter, Kathy
Speaker 1: I think her name is, She wanders off down the
Speaker 1: beach doing a little beach step in and tweets, and
Speaker 1: she comes across the tiny little dinosaur and sort of
Speaker 1: feeds a little roast beef, and oh, here come a
Speaker 1: bunch of them, and I thought at first was eating alive,
Speaker 1: but we learned she'd later survive. But it is attacked,
Speaker 1: I guess by these tiny hungry dinosaurs. Yes, compies, Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: our first go of the company. We have not seen
Speaker 1: the compy, right, the debut film for the company.
Speaker 2: Does anybody else think that's just the baby Raptor?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 2: I was like, Oh, cool, baby raptor.
Speaker 5: We're gonna see the next big raptor come out and
Speaker 5: eat this girl, which is what I thought at first,
Speaker 5: because I don't remember this one nearly as well as
Speaker 5: I remember the first one, which I've watched a billion times.
Speaker 5: In this one I've probably seen like five times now,
Speaker 5: not as much replay value for me, but I definitely
Speaker 5: was like, oh, that's just like the baby raptor we
Speaker 5: saw hatch in the first one. Watch out for the
Speaker 5: parents coming next instead a swarm of babys which.
Speaker 2: Are now copies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a whole new thing here.
Speaker 2: I was confused.
Speaker 8: I think the copies are what killed doctor Malcolm in
Speaker 8: the first book?
Speaker 6: Interesting? Okay, I think so if I'm remembering correctly.
Speaker 8: And then you know, Cranton was asked to write a
Speaker 8: sequel and he's like, well, we're just going to bring
Speaker 8: doctor Malcolm back. Oh okay, but whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well funny, funny you say, bring them back because
Speaker 1: the British mom's scream dissolves into Jeff Goldbloom doctor Ian Malcolm.
Speaker 1: He is a doctor, right he is?
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's a doctor.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Well, I mean he's technically a chaos mathematician, but I'm
Speaker 5: sure he has his doctorate in Yeah.
Speaker 1: You know, in the first one we did Jurassic Pals,
Speaker 1: I definitely left doctor off a his name for a
Speaker 1: majority of the time.
Speaker 8: I said it, Yeah, and you were calling John Hammond
Speaker 8: doctor Hammond.
Speaker 4: He's no doctor.
Speaker 2: Oh I was. I think, is that a doctor degree?
Speaker 2: What about the coffees? Are they doctors?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 6: They do not have their PhD.
Speaker 3: Know anyway, Yeah, I was weirded out hearing Ian Malcolm
Speaker 3: actually because in the first one they just call him
Speaker 3: doctor Malcolm.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: It doesn't seem like an Ian to me. She's more
Speaker 3: of a Jeff.
Speaker 5: I do love the cut though, from lady yelling to
Speaker 5: Malcolm yawning, and it looks like he's on an island somewhere,
Speaker 5: but he's really just standing in front of a poster.
Speaker 2: I thought that was pretty funny. I think it's my
Speaker 2: favorite shot of the entire movie. Wow, serious, Oh, this
Speaker 2: is awesome.
Speaker 1: And then it sort of goes downhill from there. But yeah,
Speaker 1: he's he's in the subway and he boards a train,
Speaker 1: and he's recognized by a bunch of passengers, right the
Speaker 1: one guy in particular coming up to him and trying
Speaker 1: to get something out of them. But all I kept
Speaker 1: thinking was like, whoa is that the Atlanta Marta. It
Speaker 1: looks like it's so identical, Yeah to the mart of
Speaker 1: those orange like hard bucket scenes. I thought it maybe was.
Speaker 1: I don't think it is.
Speaker 3: But and it was a super clean subway. It was
Speaker 3: part of the well, it didn't seem like New York either.
Speaker 3: Sitting with my my New York and wife Danielle said, whoa,
Speaker 3: that's clean, clear, cleaned the heck out of it. It
Speaker 3: felt really weird. Just the whole thing didn't smell like urine,
Speaker 3: like the whole.
Speaker 6: You know, the whole thing, the whole New York Vine.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it didn't feel like that at all.
Speaker 1: So any anything from this, I mean, we can move
Speaker 1: with some pace here on the opening of this movie
Speaker 1: here with the British couple and the daughter and then
Speaker 1: into Malcolm.
Speaker 8: Well, I've been trying to keep a running tally of
Speaker 8: the worst parents in the franchise. You know, yeah, we
Speaker 8: thought that the lex and uh Tim's parents were the worst.
Speaker 8: But you know, I don't know, just letting your daughter
Speaker 8: wander off on a strange island not great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then again, like she was trying to make
Speaker 1: her like, hey, stay close. Just the dad was the
Speaker 1: one that was like, relax, We're on a private island here.
Speaker 2: What is she gonna do?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, And they don't know.
Speaker 8: There's I'm just trying to keep track of my ranking.
Speaker 8: So and Tim's parents still number one for now for now?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 2: Do you think prawns are the most elitist food? Who shrimp?
Speaker 5: Shrimp for us peasants, but prawns are for the upper
Speaker 5: crust of society?
Speaker 3: It felt like to me, Yeah, it feels disgusting to me.
Speaker 3: I'm not a prawn man.
Speaker 6: You a shrimpman.
Speaker 2: Well, it depends on the day.
Speaker 3: Sometimes I think they're disgusting. Gosh, the floor of the ocean. No,
Speaker 3: thank you, they are bugs. There are the ocean's bugs.
Speaker 3: Depends on the day. But I just never saw. I
Speaker 3: just didn't know prawns were a thing in Eastlesorna, but
Speaker 3: I guess they are.
Speaker 1: My takeaway as a fan that watches Below Deck and
Speaker 1: j D, I can't if you do, or yeah, like
Speaker 1: you know how they're on the yacht. They're on these
Speaker 1: this beautiful yacht, the super Yacht. They're well staffed, of course,
Speaker 1: everything you want there, But then it feels like every
Speaker 1: episode of Blow Deck, the people want to go to
Speaker 1: a private beach and then you got to pack up everything.
Speaker 1: If you're the chef and you're the staff, and you
Speaker 1: got to take the tables, you gotta take the tents,
Speaker 1: you gotta take the barbecue and all that, it's always
Speaker 1: a night, huge pan of it. It's the biggest pain
Speaker 1: in the ice. That's all I could think about with
Speaker 1: these poor staff here.
Speaker 2: The super had an elaborate set up, incredible.
Speaker 1: What do you think they got tipped.
Speaker 6: At the end.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, when they hand them the envelope, it's a
Speaker 1: big part. Well, they would have got nothing. Their daughter
Speaker 1: was attacked by dinosaurs, and you know they're going to
Speaker 1: blame it on them. Well because of the why do
Speaker 1: you bring us to this island the.
Speaker 2: Scent of the prawns cops.
Speaker 1: Okay, so Malcolm shows up at this big sort of
Speaker 1: mansion here and we.
Speaker 2: Meet Lex and Tim.
Speaker 1: They're bay for thirty seconds if that. They're on screen
Speaker 1: for like a minute.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And I even forgot because it was so quick.
Speaker 3: I thought they just showed up later because they show
Speaker 3: up later.
Speaker 1: No, this is their only camps.
Speaker 2: Are only Lex and Tim. I popped.
Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, they're gone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they like hug him. And then obviously it gets
Speaker 1: into doctor Malcolm meeting Hammond's nephew Peter Ludlow, who is
Speaker 1: the new CEO of Engen, who accuses Malcolm of spreading
Speaker 1: false rumors about the Jurassic Park incident for payment, right,
Speaker 1: And this is like Peter saying, ah, you you signed
Speaker 1: the NDA and then you proceeded to violate violate the
Speaker 1: agreement and as such, his tenure at the university was rescinded,
Speaker 1: his reputation left in tatters. And this is where we're at.
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of exposition here in this first
Speaker 1: stage of this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and doesn't.
Speaker 5: Ludlow also basically kind of confirms what the random dude
Speaker 5: on the subway was saying. He's like, nobody believes what
Speaker 5: you said happened on the island, doctor Malcolm. It's totally
Speaker 5: fine out there, and then he hits him with the
Speaker 5: ultimate diss. This suit costs more than your education. That's
Speaker 5: an expensive suit. Malcolm to the school to become a doctor. Yeah,
Speaker 5: six years.
Speaker 6: Minimum minimum, Yeah, minimum.
Speaker 2: And this is the nineties.
Speaker 5: We got probably like a fifty thousand dollars suit easily
Speaker 5: and doesn't Peter here, does it exists the nephew or
Speaker 5: the new He says something like you're the only one
Speaker 5: breaking the NDA too, implying there, but it's true yet
Speaker 5: left dress part he even says, like Lex and Tim,
Speaker 5: they've kept it tight.
Speaker 2: Left getting live exactly.
Speaker 1: So we then have Malcolm going up to a bedridden
Speaker 1: John Hammond, he's back in this movie, and he tells Malcolm, hey,
Speaker 1: sight b man, it was breeding site for the dinosaurs.
Speaker 1: So he as he puts it, Soorna is the factory
Speaker 1: floor and New Blar is the showroom. And this is like, again,
Speaker 1: what you were saying, Treyla, Wow, that was a weird decision.
Speaker 2: Very weird.
Speaker 5: Just like I would want to have as little dinosaur
Speaker 5: interaction as possible.
Speaker 2: Grow them in the place where you're to keep them, Yeah,
Speaker 2: grow them.
Speaker 1: And show them simple. And then I mean it gets
Speaker 1: worse because we learned that they had a hurricane Clarissa,
Speaker 1: and then that happened on Soorna here, and then all
Speaker 1: the dinosaurs were left free to Rome, and Hammon says, like,
Speaker 1: for four years, the dinosaurs have just lived in a
Speaker 1: natural environment without human intervention. Uh, and they're in their
Speaker 1: own social groups and it's going great. But I did
Speaker 1: like this. Malcolm was like, hey, I thought you breeded
Speaker 1: these things with that lyzine deficiency. You know, like if
Speaker 1: you don't give it to them, they die. Shouldn't they
Speaker 1: be dead? Is basically always saying. So that was good
Speaker 1: at least a little call back to the first one.
Speaker 1: But Hammon's answer is just like, hey man, you were right.
Speaker 1: Life finds a way. So that's the setup. And then Hammon,
Speaker 1: who like I thought, was on his deathbed and like dying,
Speaker 1: he sort of like pops out of bed.
Speaker 2: He's suddenly got like some energy. Grandpa Joe from Chocolate Back.
Speaker 8: Any opportunity to send somebody to their most certain death
Speaker 8: just fills him with life and effervescent.
Speaker 6: You know that's right.
Speaker 5: He's like, I got one more live here, I do.
Speaker 2: Like I feel like they make him look like the
Speaker 2: devil in this seat.
Speaker 5: He's dressed in black and red. His bushy eyebrows, I
Speaker 5: feel like are intentionally turned up so they're horrid. Like
Speaker 5: he's even like a flushed I feel like his skin
Speaker 5: is pretty red. So the guy is in the first one,
Speaker 5: he's like supposed to be a little bit angelic, I think,
Speaker 5: and dressed in all white.
Speaker 2: Not so much. In this one, they're like, this guy sucks.
Speaker 1: But you kept saying our first Jurassic pals, this guy's
Speaker 1: the villain. This guy's the villain man, And like, I
Speaker 1: think they've leaned into it here definitely, because his plan
Speaker 1: is Hammond's plan is he wants Malcolm to lead a
Speaker 1: team to find out how are these dinosaurs even surviving?
Speaker 1: Like what's going on there?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: Again, Malcolm's like that's crazy, bro, Like what there's no
Speaker 1: fences even, Like why would we go, Hey, don't worry,
Speaker 1: the carnivores stay in the interior of the island.
Speaker 2: So if you guys stay.
Speaker 1: On the outer rim, you're safe. He even says, very
Speaker 1: low impact light left.
Speaker 4: Come on.
Speaker 3: Man, just happens too quickly too. Hammond sets up the
Speaker 3: whole fricking movie at four line bank, bang bang bang,
Speaker 3: and then here comes Malcolm when he's leaving, with his
Speaker 3: line of it's not a research expedition, it's a rescue
Speaker 3: operation and it's leaving now. And then the dramatic music
Speaker 3: already like it's way too early. It all happens way
Speaker 3: too early. It was so slow and so all worthy,
Speaker 3: the first one, the wondering what was happening, the wonderment
Speaker 3: about all and here's just like bop, it's over.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So yeah, Hammond says, I got a site B team.
Speaker 1: It's gonna consist of Nick van Owen, that's gonna be
Speaker 1: Vince Vaughn, a videographer, Eddie Carr played by Richard Schiff,
Speaker 1: a field equipment expert, an unnamed palaeontologist that they just
Speaker 1: sort of snip over. I mean, we'll get to in
Speaker 1: one second, but like an unnamed that killed me and
Speaker 1: of course yeah yeah, and of course Malcolm will be
Speaker 1: the fourth. So Peter is opposed to this idea. He
Speaker 1: wants to use Site B for Profits to take in
Speaker 1: Gen out of Chapter eleven bankruptcy. After the incident with
Speaker 1: this British couple. The basically the board took control from
Speaker 1: in Gen from Hammon. So Hammond says, look, the only
Speaker 1: way to get this backer to save this is to
Speaker 1: get public support to stop all this commercial exploitation. So
Speaker 1: that's why this, uh, this thing's even happening, this mission,
Speaker 1: if you want to call it that, send these four
Speaker 1: in document everything, and that's going to win the people
Speaker 1: over and then we'll guess, keep these animals alive.
Speaker 2: Hey, exactly, exactly.
Speaker 5: Don't trust Hammond he wants to keep the animals alive,
Speaker 5: telling you right here, But I think great line by Malcolm.
Speaker 5: You went from a capitalist to a naturalist in just
Speaker 5: four years. That's that's something.
Speaker 1: And this is very cute line too, because Sir Richard Attenborough,
Speaker 1: who is Hammon not doctor? I almost said it, JD.
Speaker 1: His brother is naturalist, Sir David Attenburg. Damn, you just
Speaker 1: turn into your brother four years. Very confusing in the movie.
Speaker 1: So Malcolm refuses Hammond's offer. Okay, that's smart, but and
Speaker 1: then he sort of alluded to it. He's like, oh,
Speaker 1: your girlfriend's there. That palaeontologist that I didn't name, Sarah Harding,
Speaker 1: which is Julianne Moore. She's already there, man. She's got
Speaker 1: a great flight, good deal on a flight out.
Speaker 2: She went get their early scout locations.
Speaker 1: And the other additional members are to meet her there.
Speaker 1: And that's is where Malcolm's like, you sent my girlfriend
Speaker 1: to this island alone. And Malcolm says, yeah, this is
Speaker 1: now a rescue mission because now I gotta go get
Speaker 1: sir mm hmm okay.
Speaker 8: And there's a weird moment where I Hammond is like
Speaker 8: Goldblum says that it's a rescue mission. Then he turns
Speaker 8: around and he's like he's like counting on his fingers.
Speaker 6: He's like.
Speaker 8: And he goes, ah, yes, I got it, and continues
Speaker 8: on like what Like he's like, I've got everybody like
Speaker 8: whatever happened, Like he's going under duress, but I got
Speaker 8: everybody's so.
Speaker 1: I guess yeah, I don't know, Like and.
Speaker 8: There is a moment where he's handing him the binders
Speaker 8: of the you know, here's a nick and here's such
Speaker 8: and such, and he holds he holds the palaeontologist close
Speaker 8: to his breast.
Speaker 6: I'm not I can't reveal who it is just yet,
Speaker 6: just yet.
Speaker 8: That'll be my ace in the hole, you know, like
Speaker 8: your girlfriend's there in your face?
Speaker 1: Well, also, how long has she been there? Like they
Speaker 1: live together.
Speaker 6: It's like, do you didn't notice she was gone?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: They tried to cover their tracks. I thought. She has
Speaker 1: a line later like like I'm always traveling.
Speaker 3: I'm always on the road and you love Yeah, I
Speaker 3: try to love that.
Speaker 1: I love it when you're gone.
Speaker 4: He likes to get married and stuff. You know.
Speaker 5: One of the craziest parts of this scene to me
Speaker 5: is right at the end, Malcolm makes a call and
Speaker 5: he holds his phone in his right hand on the
Speaker 5: love side of space.
Speaker 2: Chaos. You never expect it of the time to the
Speaker 2: right ear this one time.
Speaker 6: It goes to the he's holding binders, isn't he stuff?
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe there's some weird hand gestures. Malcolm gives him
Speaker 3: the get out here. It's a real there's some weird
Speaker 3: stuff in that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So okay, Malcolm goes and meets this team right because
Speaker 1: now he's got to speed things up because he's got
Speaker 1: to go rescue Sarah. Who's there by herself on this island,
Speaker 1: this sight beat with all the dinosaurs that are like
Speaker 1: just roaming free. So he meets his team. It's it's
Speaker 1: Nick and Eddie. Nick again is Vince Vaughan. We get
Speaker 1: right away that Vince Vaughn, I mean Nick is like
Speaker 1: a ladies man.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 5: But then nothing comes with that, right, Nope, joined Greenpeace
Speaker 5: for the women.
Speaker 8: Yeah, eight women and Google that it's not true at
Speaker 8: least there's no there's no proof of.
Speaker 1: That, right, And then we meet Malcolm's daughter. Okay, we
Speaker 1: meet Vilcom's daughter, Kelly played by Vanessa Lee Chester and
Speaker 1: she wants to come along on the expedition, but Malcolm
Speaker 1: explains that she can't go. And man, we had this
Speaker 1: was a long scene. I thought between her and her
Speaker 1: dad were we learned that she likes the sega, which
Speaker 1: I was like respect, and that she was cut from
Speaker 1: her gymnastics team and that's going to pay off of
Speaker 1: course later, But like I also was struggling like hell
Speaker 1: in this scene to figure out, like, what is the
Speaker 1: family dynamic here?
Speaker 2: What is going on?
Speaker 1: Who's with who?
Speaker 2: Where's the mom you're with? Julianne Moore say.
Speaker 1: Like it was a little confusing, and even Vince Vaughn's
Speaker 1: character was like, I don't he made a joke about
Speaker 1: the resemblance. It's like, Okay, she's adopted of some sort
Speaker 1: or whatever. But I don't know, I.
Speaker 2: Don't know exactly.
Speaker 5: I'm like, I buy that Malcolm has kids that we
Speaker 5: wouldn't have heard about. Sure, right, because in the first
Speaker 5: one he knows to like be worried for the kids
Speaker 5: when he's sitting in the jeep with Grant when the
Speaker 5: Tyrannosaurus attack is happening, He's like, the kids are scared,
Speaker 5: and like Grant hadn't even thought about the kids. We
Speaker 5: know he has multiple ex wives because in the first
Speaker 5: one he's looking for the next future X.
Speaker 2: This is Malcolm. So I kind of like it that
Speaker 2: they're just like he.
Speaker 1: Has a black daughter. Yeah, And I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: he has a black daughter. It's not yeah, for sure,
Speaker 1: it's not the race of the daughter. It is just like,
Speaker 1: did we really need a daughter.
Speaker 6: Or a kid at all in this movie?
Speaker 1: Right? And they you know, they warned in for sure
Speaker 1: to get her out there, yeah, because she'll show up. Yeah.
Speaker 3: They never reveal with mom is his previous relationship. It
Speaker 3: doesn't it doesn't matter. Apparently Melacunas, young Mela Cunas, was
Speaker 3: also in the role for this for his daughter, but
Speaker 3: they decided different direction and she was great later Chester.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, dude, to Malcolm's insistence to leave asap, Eddie's
Speaker 1: got to shave off three days from his parture timeline.
Speaker 1: He seems a little stretched the stressed because he's not
Speaker 1: being able to test all this equipment. Uh that will
Speaker 1: sort of be important later too. So anyway, they head out, Okay,
Speaker 1: I guess, he says by in theory to Kelly color
Speaker 1: a cat. She took a cap there. Maybe just call
Speaker 1: her one for a relieve. Malcolm, Eddie, and Nick transport
Speaker 1: to Mercedes SUVs and a modified r V.
Speaker 2: They go to Costa.
Speaker 1: Rica, I think first, and then they head to Cite B.
Speaker 1: There's a quick scene thrown in here with a panicked
Speaker 1: boat captain, right.
Speaker 2: All right, yeah, yeah, you're right. And I just didn't know.
Speaker 1: Where they were when that was happening, but I guess
Speaker 1: that's where they were anyway, And this is where we
Speaker 1: learned what the locals called the islands. I thought for
Speaker 1: sure he was going to say they call them the
Speaker 1: Lost World. He doesn't the Five Deaths, okay.
Speaker 5: Los cinko'sos cinco muertes, right, yeah, And we even got
Speaker 5: a scene of Kelly like looking at the map and
Speaker 5: seeing it and instantly what I saw. You know, I
Speaker 5: took three years of high school Spanish, so I'm pretty
Speaker 5: knowledgeable in this sort of thing. I was like, Oh,
Speaker 5: the Islands of Death, but if you didn't take Spanish
Speaker 5: in high school. Thirty seconds later they explained that it
Speaker 5: is the Islands of Death. I looked up the names
Speaker 5: of all the islands they have there. Ela Matankeros butchers
Speaker 5: butcher Island. I guess, elam Werta death, Yeah, East La
Speaker 5: Sorna sarcasm, Yeah, weird, weird Sorna sarcasm. I suppose Takana
Speaker 5: mean like being mean, and East Lapaina sorrow or grief.
Speaker 5: I mean they got fair names, though, I think sarcasm
Speaker 5: is maybe a little left of those ones.
Speaker 1: And so it's called the Five Deaths by the locals
Speaker 1: now because of what happened when they get the names.
Speaker 2: I don't know, yeah, great question.
Speaker 6: Maybe they're just cursed. The islands are cursed.
Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe if they're an extra curse now, or they
Speaker 5: renamed them after the experiments.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, he did have five deaths in Jurassic Park
Speaker 1: the original, did we not if we count Jeoffrey, the
Speaker 1: poor guy that had to lift up the cage, counting him? Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: that's because I think there was four others.
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, wow. Interesting.
Speaker 8: I mean, look, they're probably cursed because Hammond got them
Speaker 8: for a steal. The guy is cheap, right, yeah, like
Speaker 8: he runs a skeleton.
Speaker 1: Crew, no expensive spare.
Speaker 6: Except for islands and it tea and.
Speaker 1: Something to uh you know, automatically open a cage door.
Speaker 3: And the Great Malcolm Jamal Warner just passed away swimming
Speaker 3: off the coast of Costa Rica.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's where he was.
Speaker 1: So on the island, Eddie, Malcolm and Nick come across
Speaker 1: a few giant stegasauruses. I guess those were yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they wanted to bring the stegosaurus back.
Speaker 5: Ye.
Speaker 1: They're big, they're big. They're stumbling across and they're going
Speaker 1: through and then you know they're they're trying to find
Speaker 1: Sarah and she's right there either were using obviously something
Speaker 1: on her backpack, homing beacon on her backpack. But this
Speaker 1: is where we first meet Sarah and man, she's a firecracker.
Speaker 1: She is a firecracker. She borrows Nick's camera right away,
Speaker 1: even though she has one. She touches a baby's dinosaur's
Speaker 1: head right away. Her camera then starts freaking out because
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, running out of film, starts making
Speaker 1: crazy noises that pisses off the baby dinosaur, which then
Speaker 1: pisses off the herd. She escapes, though, and then she
Speaker 1: has the nerve. While they're walking away, Nick goes to
Speaker 1: light up a cigarette, hold onder your butts here we go,
Speaker 1: and Sarah tells him not to do that, quote, We're
Speaker 1: here to observe and document, not interact. She just touched
Speaker 1: a dinosaur that's interacting. That's much a cigarette. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: that was weird. So I don't know if we're supposed
Speaker 1: to like her, I guess right away, but I hated
Speaker 1: her immediately because like, you are a hypocrite. That was
Speaker 1: my opinion.
Speaker 8: I mean, look, Julianne Moore is wasted in this movie.
Speaker 8: She's not the only one, obviously, but you know when
Speaker 8: we first made her, there's that there's her just messing
Speaker 8: with nature in general, Like she's the worst wildlife photographer
Speaker 8: of all time, you know, like you know that you're
Speaker 8: when your film runs out, it's going to automatically rewind,
Speaker 8: like and you don't touch the wildlife.
Speaker 6: That's rule number one. Yeah, that's right, that's.
Speaker 1: The wa biggest problem.
Speaker 8: And then when she sees Malcolm, she just starts blabbering
Speaker 8: this palaeontology bullshit. It's not even exposition. I don't think like,
Speaker 8: it's just like I figured out that this and that
Speaker 8: and that. She just seems like a complete idiot. You know,
Speaker 8: I'm like, this is the person you came to rescue.
Speaker 8: Leave her there, like, what are you doing?
Speaker 2: Get out now, man? Get out?
Speaker 1: Exactly Well, she does say too, I guess important things.
Speaker 1: She says, the herbivores are eating a lyceine rich diet
Speaker 1: that's helping them survive. Literally, who cares?
Speaker 8: You are right to be explained all but also you
Speaker 8: could could have just left it at.
Speaker 6: They found a way. Life found a way, right. We
Speaker 6: don't need her, like.
Speaker 8: You know, there's it did not ring true, like you
Speaker 8: know your girlfriend's missing, you know, you find her on
Speaker 8: this death island and then it's just like.
Speaker 1: The other thing she says, though, it says that she
Speaker 1: can prove now that the t rex does not abandon
Speaker 1: their young as is the current accepted norms of their behavior.
Speaker 1: So that's what you know, a lot of the scientists
Speaker 1: are saying and thinking. But she's like, I don't think so,
Speaker 1: of course that's going to be like a whole storyline here.
Speaker 6: Just tell us that one thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you know what, I sort of agree.
Speaker 5: Trying to prove that Dinohs are good parents, That's what
Speaker 5: I'm out here trying to.
Speaker 2: I do like what they're searching for. And they're yelling
Speaker 2: Sarah Sarah, and Nick yells Sarah.
Speaker 5: Hardy Malcolm says, how many Sarahs do you think are
Speaker 5: on the island?
Speaker 4: That was good?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Is there not a callback to that joke? Later in
Speaker 1: the movie, doesn't gold Blue yell? He yells somebody's full name?
Speaker 1: Where to Gods?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're probably right.
Speaker 1: But nobody like addresses it. But they're yelling the what
Speaker 1: is Who's he yelling for? It must it's got to
Speaker 1: be either maybe Kelly or something.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: He's yelling for somebody, right, And I swear he yells
Speaker 1: the first name and then he says full name. But
Speaker 1: it's later in the movie, nice so what a payoff? Okay,
Speaker 1: So yeah, they're all together here and suddenly they see
Speaker 1: that there's a fire back at camp and they're like,
Speaker 1: who the heck started that quick fire?
Speaker 2: Yeah, just a quick little fire going.
Speaker 1: Get Kelly on Survivor man Dominate and yeah, Kelly pops
Speaker 1: out of the RV because she has secretly stowed herself
Speaker 1: on this trip. So Kelly's there.
Speaker 8: What a bummer when she shows up, you know what
Speaker 8: I mean? You know she's gonna you know, she walks
Speaker 8: into a working work site, like there's sparks flying everywhere.
Speaker 8: It's like, oh, this seems like a pretty good place
Speaker 8: to stow away in. And then she's there and it's
Speaker 8: just like, good, now there's a kid, yeah to deal
Speaker 8: with forget.
Speaker 5: So where does that put a doctor in? Malcolm only
Speaker 5: was I.
Speaker 2: Mean, he did bring her to the hangar.
Speaker 5: He didn't expect for her to stow away, right, But
Speaker 5: if he would have never called her.
Speaker 2: There, she would have never had a chance.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 6: And he did say the line never listened to me.
Speaker 8: Yeah, at least he's self deprecating enough to realize he's
Speaker 8: a shitty parent, you know what I mean. But and
Speaker 8: he's also, you know, there's a lot lot of like
Speaker 8: hands drop that he's unreliable. It's like, I just need
Speaker 8: you to, you know, be there when I need your
Speaker 8: He's aloof for sure, But is he in the top?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean, because we have to believe
Speaker 1: that he didn't really even say I mean, he's when
Speaker 1: did he say by door ye to.
Speaker 2: Kelly at that hangar? He said bye?
Speaker 1: And I guess like didn't see her get in a
Speaker 1: cab and leave for something, and she just he was
Speaker 1: just trying. She just went in the RV.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we thought you'd grab a kid ten year old,
Speaker 3: that's what he said, right, Yeah, yeah, to some degree,
Speaker 3: he didn't say by.
Speaker 1: Her established he did.
Speaker 8: I thought it was like when he walked away from
Speaker 8: the office they had the confrontation and yeah, he's just
Speaker 8: like your mother took off to Paris. I don't know
Speaker 8: what to do with you. And then he walks away
Speaker 8: and says, just don't listen to me. And then I
Speaker 8: think that was a goodbye.
Speaker 2: Figure it out.
Speaker 8: Staying with this person who doesn't have Sega, the chocolate
Speaker 8: datee or whatever.
Speaker 5: Yeahcolate, yeah, yeah, okay, cool, my favorite dinosaur I.
Speaker 1: Know totally okay. So now now we cut to Peter
Speaker 1: Ludlow flying in Roland Tembo. That is Pete apostle Thwaite.
Speaker 1: He's a big game hunter. They're coming. He's coming in
Speaker 1: with his entire assault team here and the equipment, and
Speaker 1: they're going to round up these various dinosaurs for Engen
Speaker 1: and Roland tells us he wants to kill a t rex.
Speaker 1: That's his fee for the assignments, right, that's sick, man,
Speaker 1: that's some sick stuff. And we're right into a scene
Speaker 1: where they just start snatching up dinosaurs and he's trying
Speaker 1: to figure out the names of these things.
Speaker 2: He's like me doing my notes.
Speaker 1: He's like, screw it, get the friar tuck looking one,
Speaker 1: Get the eldest looking one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 1: And they're having some success here in this like I
Speaker 1: guess first real action sequence where all the dinosaurs are
Speaker 1: running around and there's like, man, they.
Speaker 2: Came with a bunch of people. Yeah, a lot of vehicles.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they got to quite the crew together pretty quickly.
Speaker 2: But I guess uh.
Speaker 5: Nick tells us eventually he's like, yeah, I knew these
Speaker 5: guys were coming, so we had to finish our work
Speaker 5: before they got here, which obviously didn't happen. But I
Speaker 5: do like that they're showing us the contrast of like, look,
Speaker 5: every other person we've met so far in the franchise,
Speaker 5: including the first movie, like they're there because they want
Speaker 5: to see dinosaurs, because they're interested in dinosaurs, and like
Speaker 5: this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Meanwhile, the
Speaker 5: majority of these guys are just like, let's go to
Speaker 5: mess up some dinosaurs. We don't care anything about these.
Speaker 5: We got Pete possel Towait throwing away the key to
Speaker 5: the dinosaurs because the other thing want to mess around
Speaker 5: with any name that isn't t Rex. These guys are
Speaker 5: just complete savages going out there to be mercenaries, right,
Speaker 5: And I think that's completely different than what the other
Speaker 5: team is showing and what we have seen thus far.
Speaker 2: So you know we're going right away. These guys are dickheads.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Then there's the one guy on their team that does
Speaker 1: seem to know stuff.
Speaker 5: I don't know if he ever got a name, Big
Speaker 5: Old Beard Long. Yeah, yeah, I only have him as
Speaker 5: in my notes.
Speaker 1: They literally have to have him there so he could
Speaker 1: say the proper name, like thank you. So then the
Speaker 1: timeline was weird here to me, I think we jumped
Speaker 1: right to like the next morning, because this is where
Speaker 1: we have role in finding the infant t Rex. It
Speaker 1: was like, okay, we just jumped right to the next day.
Speaker 6: I thought that was just later in the day.
Speaker 1: That night, I thought it got I thought they were
Speaker 1: doing all their hunting. It got dark, and then it's
Speaker 1: the t rex scene. The infant t rex is like
Speaker 1: morning again.
Speaker 2: Or is it dark?
Speaker 1: I can't. Oh, it's dark, so it's it's night. So
Speaker 1: it's the same day, well, same day. Maybe could be
Speaker 1: the next morning for all I know. Anyway, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: The t rex is chained up, little baby, like I'm
Speaker 1: hunting right away.
Speaker 5: You guys set up camp. Yeah, I'll be back with
Speaker 5: a t rex and momentarily yeah.
Speaker 1: And they chain it up and they're hoping the cries
Speaker 1: are going to bring the parents to the base and
Speaker 1: that that's where they can hunt them down. And that
Speaker 1: t rex, that little baby t Rex, it's whaling like
Speaker 1: a mother. It's going crazy.
Speaker 4: Apparently they used a baby camel for that sound.
Speaker 2: The sound, yeah, and then once you hear.
Speaker 3: It the entire time, close your eyes and that's a
Speaker 3: camel crying.
Speaker 4: It's so Samuel L.
Speaker 1: Jackson was still alive to pop in say somebody say, Cammel,
Speaker 1: but your humps. So later that night, I guess then
Speaker 1: Hammon's crew sneaks up on the Dino snatchers. Peter is
Speaker 1: making a presentation to the engine board about his plan,
Speaker 1: which is this dinosaur themed park in San Diego. Weird
Speaker 1: blind thrown in here. You know how great at play
Speaker 1: San Diego was for this, he says, San Diego Zoo,
Speaker 1: SeaWorld and the San Diego Chargers. Yeah, what lost me
Speaker 1: on the Chargers part animals, the standibals man. Uh so yeah,
Speaker 1: he has like I mean, poor Eddie's struggling with all
Speaker 1: his equipment. They've got a full Zoom meeting going like yeah.
Speaker 2: I'm impressed.
Speaker 5: Actually yeah, I know in Gen like Engen should have
Speaker 5: gotten into the technology game rather than just straight up
Speaker 5: the dinosaur de extincting game, because we saw in the
Speaker 5: first one they basically invented Weymouth thirty years earlier. They
Speaker 5: have electric self driving cars, and then that's when they're
Speaker 5: doing Zoom twenty five years before Zoom comes out, Like
Speaker 5: they were onto some really good technology stuff and I
Speaker 5: guess that was just like to.
Speaker 2: Finance the dinosaur projects.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but they could have probably done well and killed
Speaker 5: way fewer people if they just would have continued down
Speaker 5: the path of making consumer products.
Speaker 3: So this is like, was it Kelly or maybe I'm
Speaker 3: mixing up, like these are hacking abilities?
Speaker 2: She could have taken over the company exactly, she could have.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, this is what you're saying is
Speaker 1: like Apple and their technology and their phones and computers.
Speaker 1: But then you know, pivoting into uh movies, ridiculous. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're like, we got all get this funny, let's just
Speaker 1: do other things. Yeah, that's what they're doing here. So
Speaker 1: Nick infiltrates the base camp, he frees the dinosaurs, and
Speaker 1: they recavoc here on this base camp, and that's when
Speaker 1: Roland then inspects the cages and he really realizes they've
Speaker 1: been sabotaged and that they're not alone on this island,
Speaker 1: and that was not dinosaurs that let these dinosaurs out
Speaker 1: of the cage.
Speaker 6: That was humans.
Speaker 1: So that's where we are. Any thoughts on this whole
Speaker 1: scene here, JD with what's going on.
Speaker 8: Well, look when they're chasing the dinosaurs, when they first
Speaker 8: get there, you know, I think it's supposed to be
Speaker 8: like a showstopping wow, like.
Speaker 6: We're in it.
Speaker 8: We're like we are riding motorbikes underneath dinosaurs and it's cool.
Speaker 8: It did not look great, like compared to the wonder
Speaker 8: and awe of you know, seeing the dinosaurs. Like I
Speaker 8: like that they were trying to move. We're further with it,
Speaker 8: like yeah, now we're not just looking at them. We're
Speaker 8: hunting dinosaurs. And like just this action sequence where we
Speaker 8: got vehicles, we got you know, this weird chair that
Speaker 8: comes out of the jeep for some reason, like you know,
Speaker 8: sort of mad Max, like yeah, yeah, when the motorcycle
Speaker 8: goes under the whatever it is, the big dinosaur. I'm like,
Speaker 8: this is not this is stupid, like like this is dumb.
Speaker 8: And then you know Tembo's sort of speech about his fee.
Speaker 6: And you know, like this is not a blah blah
Speaker 6: blah blah.
Speaker 8: Absolutely nailed by Parcel Thwaite, but horrible dialogue and like
Speaker 8: this whole thing of they're in a bumpy jeep and
Speaker 8: he's like this big monologue and he's just like I
Speaker 8: have two conditions blah blah blah blah blah. You know
Speaker 8: it's just like good. I mean it's fine. I guess
Speaker 8: like any other actor wouldn't be able to pull it off.
Speaker 8: But pussel Thwait's great, and you know, like the jump
Speaker 8: to oh we are not alone on this island. I'm like,
Speaker 8: you brought a hundred guys, like you think it might
Speaker 8: have been one of your dude sabotage But anyways, yeah,
Speaker 8: I mean it's fine whatever.
Speaker 6: Like I don't know, I.
Speaker 3: Do like the chairs being ejected out from each cool
Speaker 3: ahead of the time, good tech.
Speaker 9: Yeah, what is the purpose of it though, Like, so
Speaker 9: you can just get a better, better, you know, rope
Speaker 9: on I guess so, I guess rope the technologies there?
Speaker 4: Do they drive under a stegosaurus? Is that?
Speaker 1: Yeah? That's why the ones we couldn't name in the
Speaker 1: first because.
Speaker 8: Those are those are el size right, Okay, it was
Speaker 8: big enough for a motorcycle?
Speaker 1: Was it the Elvis one? Maybe?
Speaker 6: Maybe? I think I might have Elvis.
Speaker 2: We mostly got a shot of its legs.
Speaker 5: I do like when the triceratops starts raging through the
Speaker 5: camp after making them like release them at the investor call.
Speaker 2: I think that's pretty good. Now I'm getting excited.
Speaker 5: I'm like Oka right, we're gonna get some dinosaur raging
Speaker 5: and then something it's over. Yeah, just like the tiniest
Speaker 5: taste of dinosaur not enough for me.
Speaker 2: But I think you're totally right.
Speaker 5: It's like in the first one they have that moment
Speaker 5: when they get to Jurassic Park, we get the awe,
Speaker 5: but kind of like the genies out of the bottle,
Speaker 5: they can't really do that the exact same way.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 5: We get tiny moments of people like in the jeeps
Speaker 5: driving along and they're like, oh cool, you know, they
Speaker 5: are like still wowed to see the dinosaurs. But because
Speaker 5: they did that whole the whole first half of the
Speaker 5: first movie is you know, the beauty of the dinosaurs
Speaker 5: and the friendliness of the herbivores. They don't do that
Speaker 5: in the second one because they can't just totally repeat themselves.
Speaker 2: I know, like the herbivores are dangerous.
Speaker 5: Right, you know, And I think that is kind of
Speaker 5: like indicative of the way this whole movie goes. It's
Speaker 5: like everything's a little bit more serious and dark and
Speaker 5: dangerous for the second one compared to the first one.
Speaker 5: And what we liked about the first one was that
Speaker 5: they had the contrast in style whereas with this one,
Speaker 5: it's just like murders right away.
Speaker 4: It's just as man anything.
Speaker 1: Look, there's no fenses. Man Nick though, he saves the
Speaker 1: injured infant t Rex and he brings it to the
Speaker 1: r V for medical attention. So they've got it here
Speaker 1: in the r V and they're, you know, they're they're
Speaker 1: fixing it, and he takes off his belt to like
Speaker 1: wrap up its mouth so it doesn't you know, sort
Speaker 1: of bite them or whatever. And oh my god, there's
Speaker 1: a fly in here in case exactly. Uh, and Sarah's helping,
Speaker 1: and they're trying to fix its leg, you knows.
Speaker 2: Chopping away. I need something that he said can be
Speaker 2: possibly you. Oh well slights again.
Speaker 3: Well she says spit and he literally spits his and she.
Speaker 4: Said, gum, yeah that's right, dummy, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 8: Dummy is correct, because these fucking morons are bringing a
Speaker 8: baby t Rex into their trailer.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're more they're morons.
Speaker 2: And what are you doing?
Speaker 1: Told us, yeah that she is learned that they will
Speaker 1: go nuts in protecting their infant, and it's like, oh no,
Speaker 1: it's not like we thought t Rex has baby, and
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, screw get out of here, baby, we
Speaker 1: don't care about you anymore.
Speaker 8: They're not like that at all, Right, And to your
Speaker 8: earlier point, she made a point of being like, well,
Speaker 8: we can't interfere here, Like even though Posselthwaite probably purposefully
Speaker 8: broke its leg to lure the t Rex, you still can't.
Speaker 8: You just it's just the stupidest thing you could do.
Speaker 8: And when you're when your characters are morons, are like,
Speaker 8: I don't care about them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So well they're in this r V and at one
Speaker 1: point I thought it happened like really quickly, but like
Speaker 1: Kelly starts freaking out. She's like suddenly like this is
Speaker 1: a bad idea coming here. Yeah, maybe it's seeing the
Speaker 1: wailing baby in you know, infant t rex on the
Speaker 1: table or something. But she starts panicking. So her and
Speaker 1: Malcolm go and join Eddie in the in the high Tide,
Speaker 1: high Hide, high hide, Yeah, high hide, thank you elevated
Speaker 1: basket thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which, what was the.
Speaker 1: Point of this thing? I mean.
Speaker 2: That was one where I was like, oh, this will
Speaker 2: pay off.
Speaker 5: You made it because they show us like what they're
Speaker 5: at the hangar or whatever, right, and he's kind of
Speaker 5: like going through Eddie's going through all of the different
Speaker 5: things that he's bringing that he hasn't tested yet and
Speaker 5: included as the High Hide, and Malcolm's like, oh, perfect convenient,
Speaker 5: biting hype, right right, You're thinking Eddie is going to
Speaker 5: get chomped out of that, sure, sure, but no, they
Speaker 5: just use it to hide.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you never heard of Chekov's High Hide.
Speaker 1: Right. Well, what's funny too, is like Malcolm takes her
Speaker 1: Kelly up with Eddie or they get up there in
Speaker 1: the High Hide and then he's like, up there, he
Speaker 1: calls back to the r V. No answer, Yeah, so
Speaker 1: he like repels down like ten seconds later. Yep, He's like,
Speaker 1: I guess you're safe now. You didn't want to be
Speaker 1: in the RV let me go back. Yeah, you just
Speaker 1: stay with Eddie pouring rain out, barely any coverage to
Speaker 1: this thing. She's got no jacket on. I'm sure it's warm,
Speaker 1: but we very well. So, yeah, he repels down, and
Speaker 1: he's just making some fascinating decisions in my mind.
Speaker 6: Oh totally.
Speaker 8: I mean, look, let me ask the dads in the room,
Speaker 8: are you leaving your child in the High Hide by yourself?
Speaker 8: By herself? So you can go rescue your soon to
Speaker 8: be ex girlfriend.
Speaker 2: Absolutely not literally left her hanging.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's crazy, it's a crazy decision.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it should have been like Mario Kart, you know
Speaker 3: in the Renegade round up where they have these high heights.
Speaker 4: Everybody's got to go together, you get released together.
Speaker 3: Okay, all I want right going together. You're not just
Speaker 3: leaving your child there. Yes, that's a hard, hard No, dog,
Speaker 3: you can't.
Speaker 4: You just can't.
Speaker 2: So Malcolm makes it back to the r V.
Speaker 1: But this is where the team is attacked by the
Speaker 1: adult t Rexes. Yes plural, there's more than one. There's
Speaker 1: a cool part. We got both of them on both
Speaker 1: sides of the RV. We're doing we're doing some big
Speaker 1: Dino looking through window work here. But yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: fine to play that. Sure that hit again and you're
Speaker 1: double it up. Now they're on both.
Speaker 8: This is by far the best scene in the movie
Speaker 8: for me. The trailer, the whole trailer sequence.
Speaker 1: Oh, the whole trailer sequence. I think it goes on
Speaker 1: at all too long when it's off the clan. But
Speaker 1: Sarah says, they're not hunting. They came for their infant. Yep, yep,
Speaker 1: we knew that. So they open the door. They give
Speaker 1: the baby t Rex back, just give back to them.
Speaker 1: They'll probably take it and leave. But they're not done.
Speaker 1: They're not done. No, no, no, they're still angry. So this
Speaker 1: is where they flip the r V and they push
Speaker 1: it over a cliff and it's teetering over the edge.
Speaker 1: I guess like at least half of the r V
Speaker 1: is hanging off the edge. The other is sort of
Speaker 1: on land.
Speaker 3: That's the weird part because the dinos disappear after. Yeah,
Speaker 3: they finished the job, that's good enough. Yeah, they get distracted, left,
Speaker 3: they leave and come back and leave and come back
Speaker 3: like three times, right, don't they.
Speaker 4: Sort of definitely, yeah, definitely twice they get the.
Speaker 8: Baby back, they leave, then gold blooms about to get
Speaker 8: on the radio and he's like, oh, this is gonna
Speaker 8: be bad. They get smashed up, and they leave again.
Speaker 8: I think it's three times.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they definitely come back for Eddie.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yes, I guess they hear the but yeah, why
Speaker 8: wouldn't they just finish the job, and it's.
Speaker 1: Just knock the felt Well, it's teetering over the edge
Speaker 1: and Sarah falls onto the window on the one end
Speaker 1: of the thing, and this is where we get the
Speaker 1: hole like it's cracking. The art scene, it's like, are
Speaker 1: they gonna be able to get to her in time?
Speaker 1: And something else is about to drop and break it? Right,
Speaker 1: that's that's the thing. Nick vin Vaughn's trying to grab
Speaker 1: satellite phone. Satellite phone, right, Yeah, And of course Malcolm's
Speaker 1: trying to get to her, and he catches her just
Speaker 1: before it breaks her while it breaks the help of
Speaker 1: that lucky backpack. What a movie for this backpack. It
Speaker 1: comes to a couple of times.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she doesn't heed her own advice at all when
Speaker 5: it comes to not interfering, because every chance she gets
Speaker 5: she interferes. But she was one hundred percent right about
Speaker 5: the lucky backpack. Yeah, it comes in handy all on. Yes,
Speaker 5: I love anytime in a movie there's a slow cracking scene.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I think is awesome. So she's hanging or
Speaker 5: she's laying like on the glass, and as she's slowly
Speaker 5: moving her hands and her fingers, it's like little spider
Speaker 5: webs coming out and we know, like the clock is
Speaker 5: ticking on it, she's gonna fall soon enough. You'll see
Speaker 5: that like on ice or something like an iced over Lake.
Speaker 5: I always think it's cool.
Speaker 1: I'm with this scene up until this point, like if
Speaker 1: it had ended soon after they catch her, but it
Speaker 1: actually goes on for a lot longer because he got
Speaker 1: the whole eddy sort of saving them. Yeah, because he
Speaker 1: hustles back. He now leaves Kelly in the high hide.
Speaker 1: So he's coming back and he's trying to save them.
Speaker 1: He's trying to save them with the rope that he's
Speaker 1: tied to a tree. And then he attaches his car
Speaker 1: to the RV with like the steel wrench cable like
Speaker 1: to the you know, with to his truck, and then
Speaker 1: you know, this is what he's doing. He's got two
Speaker 1: things going right. He's got them on the rope and
Speaker 1: he has some complications with that, and then he's obviously
Speaker 1: got the truck part. Got complications with that because the
Speaker 1: t Rex has come back, like you said, yeah, and
Speaker 1: he eventually gets eaten.
Speaker 3: He can't decide what to do. It's like he's on
Speaker 3: the hamster wheel. Does he just start working? He's like
Speaker 3: this way or that way? This way you just can't
Speaker 3: can't grapple it.
Speaker 8: I mean, that's what I like about it, and that's
Speaker 8: why I think it works. It's it on paper. It
Speaker 8: feels tedious, and I can see how somebody would think
Speaker 8: it's this is going on way too long.
Speaker 6: But I don't know.
Speaker 8: It'd worked for me, just be just the tension of
Speaker 8: them being stuck at the bottom of this thing and
Speaker 8: him trying to work out how am I going to
Speaker 8: do this? And then he gets eaten by a t rex.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was getting a little confused with the ropes and
Speaker 1: what was to and where the heck everything was. But
Speaker 1: you know, I went back and I did look at
Speaker 1: it again. I was like, Okay, it does make sense
Speaker 1: what he's trying to do, right, yep. But he's got
Speaker 1: a lot to do. There's two t rexes coming.
Speaker 8: Back exactly single handedly trying to you know, save these
Speaker 8: people while fending off t rexes, and he's just it.
Speaker 8: He's stuck in the mud, he's slipping all over the place,
Speaker 8: and then the gun gets stuck right Like, It's just
Speaker 8: it's kind of frustrating to watch, but also like you're like,
Speaker 8: holy shit, I it worked for me.
Speaker 1: Tough death for our guy Eddie. Yeah, oh yeah, double
Speaker 1: chump tossed in the.
Speaker 5: Air, yeah yeah, pop corn in their mouths, Hey, toss
Speaker 5: me up.
Speaker 1: I would have liked to have seen the two dinosaurs,
Speaker 1: the two Texas do a little lady in tramp with them.
Speaker 1: They would have kissed it.
Speaker 2: Meet me at the belts. Yeah, his air bag goes off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a good part. So yeah, long scene,
Speaker 1: but goodbye Eddie. H don't worry though.
Speaker 3: Ten minutes is how long it took, is what it was.
Speaker 3: From the Dino push. I did go back, not to
Speaker 3: get all analytics.
Speaker 1: Just from the first Dino push.
Speaker 4: Yeah to that.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, maybe it feels like an even longer scene
Speaker 1: because we are with them in the r V for
Speaker 1: a good chunk before that too.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Please think of the orders.
Speaker 5: Three cheeseburgers, no onions for Nick and an apple turnover
Speaker 5: for Sarah.
Speaker 1: The most like craziest things are happening to these people
Speaker 1: for them to throw some I don't know.
Speaker 2: It was an interesting time.
Speaker 1: That was an interesting time to have some fun.
Speaker 8: It does happen in Jurassic Park, which we love. The
Speaker 8: tone is different. Look, Jeff Goldblum is different in this movie.
Speaker 8: He is thrust into the leading men position. He is
Speaker 8: in dad mode, and you know, when you're in dad mode,
Speaker 8: you're kind of less fun you know, like he's it's
Speaker 8: easier for him to be wisecracking and like, you know,
Speaker 8: when he's just observing the action, you know, rather than
Speaker 8: being in the action, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: So yeah, and as he said, Julian Moore just wasn't
Speaker 3: peak Julian Moore.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 8: And also I'll say Vince Vaughan should have easily stepped
Speaker 8: into that role of the wisecracking smart ass, you know
Speaker 8: what I mean, because look, Spielberg saw him in Swingers,
Speaker 8: a rough cut his Swingers apparently we're talking about And
Speaker 8: you know, the guy has comedy chops. He's been in
Speaker 8: some of the best comedies ever, you know, in the
Speaker 8: last whatever the next ten years of his career. Like,
Speaker 8: he has comedy chops. He's just as funny as as
Speaker 8: Jeff Goldblum in a different way. He could have easily
Speaker 8: been like wisecracking and you know, just being that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But like Trace said this, the tone of this movie is, right,
Speaker 1: so much darker and serious.
Speaker 8: And yeah, but like if if he's a like doctor
Speaker 8: Malcolm in the first movie is a bit of an asshole, right,
Speaker 8: like clearly, so make Vince Vaughan the bit of an asshole.
Speaker 6: He is a bit of an asshole.
Speaker 8: In this movie, but you know, just make him funny,
Speaker 8: and those kind of lines feel better coming from an
Speaker 8: asshole in a tense situation, I guess, is my point.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with it.
Speaker 5: That's why to me, Vince Vaughn's best scene is when
Speaker 5: he meets Ian Malcolm and they're talking about greenpeace for women.
Speaker 2: He's like, oh, how noble of He's like, noble was
Speaker 2: last year.
Speaker 5: This year, I'm getting paid, And that to me is
Speaker 5: like Vince Vaughn in double down Trent mode. And that's
Speaker 5: when he's at his best in any movie, is when
Speaker 5: he's like the fast talking, snip talking ye asshole guy
Speaker 5: and he knows exactly yeah, exactly it. He doesn't get
Speaker 5: to do that nearly enough in this I don't think.
Speaker 1: No his I mean, his role in this movie not
Speaker 1: a lot.
Speaker 4: Really.
Speaker 5: Now he goes from being a photographer to being like
Speaker 5: an eco terrorist.
Speaker 4: You mentioned getting paid. Let me just throw this in here. Apparently.
Speaker 3: Julian Moore later admitted that she only signed on because
Speaker 3: she was trying to pay off her divorce settlement with
Speaker 3: John gold Rubin, but she did want to work with
Speaker 3: Steven Spielberg that she hadn't done.
Speaker 1: So that I say, yeah, that checks out.
Speaker 2: I'll take a check.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Peter roll in the mercenaries they come to the
Speaker 1: r V site, so they rescue Malcolm and his team
Speaker 1: after the t Rexes have left. They brought Kelly too,
Speaker 1: so that was nice of them. I guess got her
Speaker 1: down from the high hide.
Speaker 4: Thanks for that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, honestly, now that I'm thinking about it,
Speaker 5: maybe we need to.
Speaker 2: Reassess Malcolm's parenting. She was the safest.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it turned out that.
Speaker 1: High hide was very high because we even see a
Speaker 1: shot of like I guess the t reck is going
Speaker 1: through the jungle really and you can just you can't
Speaker 1: even see their heads.
Speaker 6: How high?
Speaker 1: What tree was that attached to?
Speaker 8: But yeah, yeah, Also the problem is that it's attached
Speaker 8: to a jeep, which would be seen. And we know
Speaker 8: that the t rex is pretty curious about the jeeps
Speaker 8: and vehicles, right, they hate them, they jeeps.
Speaker 1: Okay, So we learned then now that they're sort of
Speaker 1: all together, both of these teams, that the only working
Speaker 1: radio is in the interior that's populated by the velociraptors,
Speaker 1: and this was where they have to like they're.
Speaker 2: They're all going to go together.
Speaker 1: But we have members of this team that get attacked
Speaker 1: by raptors and by other dinosaurs and killed. So I'll
Speaker 1: give them all to you. You tell me your favorite.
Speaker 1: I guess sort of death scene here. So the first
Speaker 1: death is Dieter is that his name? The Nihilists from
Speaker 1: The Big Lebowski. He tells Carter he's going for a leak,
Speaker 1: but Carter's too busy listening to so, I mean, this
Speaker 1: is a long scene and I'm you know, flying through
Speaker 1: it here. But he gets he gets killed by all
Speaker 1: those little baby dinos that the compo, the the compies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that took that, or at least attack that daughter early
Speaker 1: in the movie.
Speaker 2: The next one is Carter, Poor Carter.
Speaker 1: I think it's him. He gets smashed like a bug. One.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good one. Yeah, that's when you know
Speaker 1: the t rex has showed up. Ye Burke, that is
Speaker 1: the guy's name. I guess, the guy that knows about
Speaker 1: the paleontologists, but the bad team. Yeah, the bad guys.
Speaker 1: He snatched from inside the waterfall because the snake went
Speaker 1: down his shirt. Dumb decision on this guy's part.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta take the snake bite.
Speaker 1: There, you got to take the snake bite. And then
Speaker 1: finally we get the raptors out in the tall grass.
Speaker 2: They took out like twenty guys. Yeah, pretty silently.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So favorite fields, favorite of those four deaths A
Speaker 1: tough call.
Speaker 5: I do like the blood downstream shot when Peter gets killed,
Speaker 5: But I think I'm gonna go with you said Carter
Speaker 5: was his name.
Speaker 1: I thought it was Carter the band guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, guys stuck on the bottom of the t rex foot.
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty good.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 3: I'm going with Dieter Uh, Peter stor Marcus. He's just
Speaker 3: he's the bad guy that he was in Constantine.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: They it felt it felt right for him to get
Speaker 3: nibbled over and over and over.
Speaker 1: When he gets bit on the lip, he sort of
Speaker 1: took it in stride.
Speaker 4: I was like, damn, yeah, he's tough.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: At first, when I saw the blood streaming, I thought
Speaker 3: I want to see him get eaten, because it did.
Speaker 4: It did.
Speaker 3: We didn't see it, but then it was fitting. We
Speaker 3: saw enough biting, We saw biting him the lip.
Speaker 4: It was great.
Speaker 1: I just think like even in this movie with you
Speaker 1: see all of them, like they sort of look the
Speaker 1: worst to me, the smaller the dinosaur, the worst it looks.
Speaker 1: C G I was wise, and I wonder if they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we can't show of meeting them, it won't look good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like so just like have them. You know, he dies,
Speaker 1: but like just we can't show.
Speaker 5: It, yeah, says yeah, because they don't show it with
Speaker 5: the little girl either, Like yeah, probably the c G
Speaker 5: I bites and blood.
Speaker 2: It's the part that's the problem.
Speaker 8: Yeah, Yeah, I mean I want to give a little
Speaker 8: bit of justice for Deeter because he did the one
Speaker 8: good thing in the whole movie was when he zaps
Speaker 8: the compy with the little cattle prod. The paleontologist is like,
Speaker 8: they don't have no reason to feel man to fear
Speaker 8: man he zaps him. Now he does, Well, you just
Speaker 8: did a very good thing because now the companies are
Speaker 8: going to be afraid of the natural predaters men right right,
Speaker 8: They'll be like afraid to go after them, you know what.
Speaker 1: I mean, Like, let's we're going to be afraid to
Speaker 1: go after humans.
Speaker 8: Yeah, because they and then and then well I know,
Speaker 8: but I'm just saying revenge man. Yeah, But we want
Speaker 8: wildlife to be a rate of humans. That is what
Speaker 8: I'm saying, right, because it's good for everybody.
Speaker 5: Long term, you think it puts the long term, it's
Speaker 5: short term bad for him personally.
Speaker 6: But went friends.
Speaker 1: Because I still believe. I still believe they're all doctors,
Speaker 1: so they're well educated companies. Yeah, so I think they
Speaker 1: are all these deaths. And again there's a whole bunch
Speaker 1: of them here. Nick heads out ahead of the others
Speaker 1: of his little team. He managed to get he gets
Speaker 1: he manages to get a message off to the boat
Speaker 1: waiting in the seas around the island, and then Malcolm,
Speaker 1: Sarah and Kelly arrive soon after. Where are they at?
Speaker 1: They're at just like something that was maybe was the
Speaker 1: breeding facility.
Speaker 5: I think the operations center whatever, communications center, I don't know.
Speaker 2: They call it names. What is the village?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: The buildings?
Speaker 1: We have the three of them, Malcolm, Sarah, and Kelly.
Speaker 1: They are fighting off a pack of raptors. There's a
Speaker 1: lot going on here. They get sort of separated a
Speaker 1: little bit because Malcolm's in the jeep at first, they're
Speaker 1: in that building. We do then get soon after this
Speaker 1: the batshit crazy scene where Kelly defeats a velociraptor thanks
Speaker 1: to the power of gymnastics, and we get the line
Speaker 1: after she does, so the.
Speaker 7: School cut you from the not bad like for the
Speaker 7: for the zingers following up, I thought the Zinger was
Speaker 7: better than the stunt and this one unfortunately.
Speaker 5: There are some parts I like to this before we
Speaker 5: get to her uneven bars routine, like I love the raptors. Okay,
Speaker 5: first of all, the lucky pack comes in handy for
Speaker 5: Sarah again. A raptor jumps on her back but lands
Speaker 5: on the pack and rips it off, so she gets
Speaker 5: a little bit of leeway to go. Her and Kelly
Speaker 5: get into that room where they eventually have to climb
Speaker 5: up and all that stuff. And then I love when
Speaker 5: the raptors are chasing Malcolm and he uses a door,
Speaker 5: goes in through the door, but then the raptors busts
Speaker 5: through the window, so Malcolm lee's back out the door again.
Speaker 2: I thought that was great.
Speaker 1: It was good. I even like the digging part where
Speaker 1: they're trying to dig under to go under something, and
Speaker 1: the velociraptors are also digging on the other side, and
Speaker 1: they're like having this race cool close up to them
Speaker 1: digging so much faster. Yeah. I just remember in ninety
Speaker 1: seven watching this movie and just like I didn't get
Speaker 1: up and leave the theater after she kicks the velociraptor,
Speaker 1: but like it was, it's so bad. Oh.
Speaker 8: I saw that opening weekend and I remember grown grown,
Speaker 8: Like the pat Theater people are like what they were.
Speaker 1: Like, she's up there and she like looks at the
Speaker 1: bar and like Sarah was.
Speaker 2: Like, what are you doing? What are you doing? And
Speaker 2: then jumps on it.
Speaker 1: Spin spin, spin kickkick. Yeah, see you.
Speaker 6: Through the thing. It's brutal, brutal, brutal.
Speaker 8: And right before that you were talking about Trey about
Speaker 8: the Jeff Goldbloom versus the Raptors. This is highlights how
Speaker 8: wrong he is for this leading sort of running around
Speaker 8: thing because he's so jazzy. He's just it feels like
Speaker 8: a musical number, you know what I mean, Like he's like,
Speaker 8: you know, like go back and watch it and then
Speaker 8: you if you listen to the score. I think that
Speaker 8: John Williams could not help himself because it feels like
Speaker 8: what's that score?
Speaker 6: You know, like he's you know, jiving and bobbin and
Speaker 6: it is hilarious. It was very little.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we don't hear the theme, like the Majestic theme
Speaker 8: at all in this movie, and they don't play the
Speaker 8: the the main theme or whatever, you know, the island
Speaker 8: theme till the credits.
Speaker 6: Oh wow, you will hear.
Speaker 1: I thought there was like a remixed version.
Speaker 8: There is. There is one moment whereass a couple of moments,
Speaker 8: but when you first see the island for the first time,
Speaker 8: it hits the chord of the first but it's the strings.
Speaker 6: It's the same chord.
Speaker 8: But then it just goes off to something else because
Speaker 8: this isn't Jurassic Park.
Speaker 1: This is right to sight b B. Yeah, so okay,
Speaker 1: we have to rewatch this scene.
Speaker 2: I didn't notice that Jazzy Hands.
Speaker 1: Is of jungle.
Speaker 6: Exactly exactly.
Speaker 1: Well back to Kelly taking out the Velociraptor, Vanessa le Chester,
Speaker 1: the actor, She joked that she kept begging the filmmakers
Speaker 1: to give her a stunt to do, and she thinks
Speaker 1: this is may have been where the gymnastics scene came from.
Speaker 1: She explained, quote, I was just like, please give me
Speaker 1: a stunt scene, Please give me something crazy to do,
Speaker 1: and that maybe they put this and I.
Speaker 8: Hope not, but I mean that's a fair request to
Speaker 8: be Honest, if you're in a dinosaur and I want
Speaker 8: to do something.
Speaker 6: Cool, this is not cool. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so she survives thanks to the power of gymnastics.
Speaker 1: Sarah manages to survive thanks to I guess poor roofing construction.
Speaker 1: When she's up there and the tiles are falling off
Speaker 1: and she's using it to her advantage and getting the
Speaker 1: fighting each other. Yeah, the velociraptors turn on each other.
Speaker 5: That's the thing with raptors is if you can last
Speaker 5: long enough, eventually they'll turn on each other.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you just gotta you gotta deal with the fifteen
Speaker 5: minutes of terror. But eventually they'll get bored.
Speaker 2: Chasing a human and just want to fight each other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially now that we know there are male velociraptors. Right,
Speaker 1: it was one thing when all these very wise just
Speaker 1: female dinosaurs living in harmony, but then obviously when they
Speaker 1: started breeding, things got on hand.
Speaker 8: I think that sequence worked on the roof. Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 8: she's fending off one of them below, but it's actually
Speaker 8: bringing the other raptor closer to her.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 3: Yep, it works kind of was the amount of shingles
Speaker 3: and believable at all?
Speaker 2: I guess they're like flying down this building.
Speaker 1: It's like, hasn't been you know, no upkeeps for four
Speaker 1: years at least the hurricane hit it. Yeah, hurricane, So
Speaker 1: it's shoddy, is my point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, she.
Speaker 2: Made it work.
Speaker 1: So then the helicopters arrived to fly out Malcolm, his
Speaker 1: daughter Sarah Nick and that's the.
Speaker 2: End of the movie. Yay ah, good movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, buddy record, scratch what Nope, we got a lot
Speaker 1: more to go here. Roland has managed to tranquilize a
Speaker 1: t Rex and its baby and they're caged and they're
Speaker 1: waiting to put them on the ship. I guess they
Speaker 1: sort of see that right from the helicopters, like what
Speaker 1: the hell's going on? Suddenly we're back in San Diego
Speaker 1: and the ship is going to come there, and Peter's
Speaker 1: plan is to put the captured wreck into a cage
Speaker 1: in that zoo, in that amphitheater that he had talked about.
Speaker 1: He holds a press conference that like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it appears to be like two in the morning. They
Speaker 1: even slipped in a line something like he says something
Speaker 1: like thanks to all these people showing up at this time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a little weird. But we got an issue
Speaker 1: here because this ship coming in the SS Venture, it's
Speaker 1: not slowing down and they cannot communicate with it it
Speaker 1: and it crashes into the dock. Holy crap. And then
Speaker 1: they get on it and everybody's killed. And obviously we'll
Speaker 1: get into the dinosaur part of it all. But who
Speaker 1: killed these people on this ship? Yeah, this is the
Speaker 1: biggest question because we know the baby t Rex has
Speaker 1: been flown already and this just is the cargo ship
Speaker 1: for the big giant tranquilized t Rex.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what kills it? There was a scene that
Speaker 3: was deleted, Okay, go on that makes sense that I know.
Speaker 8: It doesn't make anything there because on the bridge there's
Speaker 8: crew all over the place, ripped apart.
Speaker 6: They hand.
Speaker 1: Obviously there's no t Rex in there, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: It's unless there's a raptor running.
Speaker 3: There are apparently there are raptors on the board, on
Speaker 3: the board, the ship, on the ship. But then it
Speaker 3: was deleted for some reason. However, the scene was removed
Speaker 3: and never it was removed and never filmed.
Speaker 4: But this detail still remained. I don't know. I don't
Speaker 4: have an answer.
Speaker 1: The only thing that makes sense is like when they
Speaker 1: were putting the t Rex on that other dinosaurs got on,
Speaker 1: probably velociraptors, let's be honest. And then they took out everybody,
Speaker 1: hence why nobody could communicate, and it crashed into the
Speaker 1: dock and the t Rex is still in the cargo thing.
Speaker 2: That's a great point, like, I mean, you're you're buying
Speaker 2: that everybody in the.
Speaker 5: Cargo hold is dead, t Rex going nut total. Once
Speaker 5: that's happening, I think it's on the captain to say,
Speaker 5: nobody go to the cargo hole. We just got to
Speaker 5: get this boat back. But I guess if there's raptors hanging,
Speaker 5: maybe maybe they're just still loose and Sandy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe maybe we haven't.
Speaker 2: Gotten the number four yet.
Speaker 6: I don't know what happens.
Speaker 1: So, yeah, they get aboard this thing and they're like,
Speaker 1: where's the crew and yeah, somebody says they're all over
Speaker 1: the place. They've all been killed. So then the t
Speaker 1: Rex escapes the ship, you know, burst out of the hold.
Speaker 1: Because that's like, you know, one guy's you know, decapitated
Speaker 1: arm right is holding on to the open clothes button
Speaker 1: and then somebody grabbed it. Anyway, bus loose because they
Speaker 1: screw it up. This was like they glossed over this,
Speaker 1: but like they tranquilized it.
Speaker 2: But then they thought they gave it too much. It's
Speaker 2: up breathing, so they gave it something else. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: then it's like adrenaline course and through it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And Sarah's like, it's like a locomotive. It's hiped up. Yeah, coffee,
Speaker 2: you give it a mountain to give it a red bull.
Speaker 1: So it's loose in the city of San Diego, and
Speaker 1: we get this whole scene and it's taking a casual.
Speaker 2: Stroll through a San Diego neighborhood.
Speaker 1: There's not a single cop car following it, or at
Speaker 1: least that we can see. There's not a light on it.
Speaker 1: There's nothing like it's just like going again around these
Speaker 1: backyards stops to take a sip from a backyard pool.
Speaker 4: I love that.
Speaker 5: I love that They're like, it's gonna go for a
Speaker 5: water source. Next, it was on a boat one second,
Speaker 5: it's on a pier, but now I'm gonna go find
Speaker 5: a swimming pool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, salty water. Yeah, and then it uh, it's the
Speaker 1: family dog. Rest in peace to the family dog. I
Speaker 1: will get the scene with the kid waking up his
Speaker 1: kids or his parents.
Speaker 8: Okay, where do these parents rank? I mean, they're kind
Speaker 8: of dicks there.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, this boy has cried dinosaur before the yeah
Speaker 1: slash obviously yeah yeah, survive so that they didn't do
Speaker 1: anything too stupid.
Speaker 8: I don't like the way they chained the dog to
Speaker 8: it the snoopy dog house.
Speaker 6: Do people do that?
Speaker 2: Is that a thing in nineties movies?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I remember in my life.
Speaker 5: I mean I feel like I've seen doghouses driving around,
Speaker 5: but not very common.
Speaker 2: No, definitely not in.
Speaker 1: The city for sure, maybe more of a I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, more of a country thing. But why would
Speaker 1: you have a dog? You shouldn't have a dog caged?
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that. Yeah, but it's yeah, it's dead yet sad.
Speaker 8: I mean, it's really just for the the image of
Speaker 8: the doghouse, you know, dangling from the the t rex's mouth,
Speaker 8: which is effective, I think.
Speaker 1: Okay, but poor. So the plan here Malcolm and Sarah
Speaker 1: learn that Peter did bring the infant t Rex back
Speaker 1: on a plane like I said, so it also wasn't
Speaker 1: on that ship, and uh, they have it in the
Speaker 1: in construction zoo or amphitheater where he plans to do
Speaker 1: all this stuff. That's where they have it. So Malcolm
Speaker 1: and Sarah go to retrieve it to lure the t
Speaker 1: Rex back to the docks. But yeah, now the t
Speaker 1: rex though, after getting he's got a mountain dew coursing
Speaker 1: through him. Now he's got a dog coursing through him.
Speaker 1: Got a lot of energy. So he hits the downtown
Speaker 1: core guess right of San Diego, and that's where he's
Speaker 1: just going sicko mode. He's going nuts.
Speaker 5: Goes to Blockbuster right away, right, just like the nineties
Speaker 5: is like I got my Mountain Dewami Sunrise, Kevin Baker.
Speaker 2: I love the fake movies they have in there that
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I couldn't decide if I want to see Tsunami Sunrise
Speaker 5: or Arnold Schwarzenegger's King Year.
Speaker 2: Robin Williams.
Speaker 6: Robin Williams is in there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jack and Something or Jack and the bean Stock maybe.
Speaker 2: Something like that.
Speaker 5: That would be a fun part of being in the
Speaker 5: writer's room is coming up with the fake uh, and we.
Speaker 1: Get I'm sure everybody noticed it, do you, especially we
Speaker 1: get an ode to Godzilla. Oh yes, four Japanese guys
Speaker 1: running and looking back. Yeah, I think they even say, right,
Speaker 1: don't they say, like we left Tokyo for this or something.
Speaker 8: I think that's what Austin Bowers you're thinking of. Oh,
Speaker 8: because there is the copyright, we can't.
Speaker 1: Uh, that's it. That's the yeah.
Speaker 5: Percent and homage Godzilla showing the Asian businessman first before
Speaker 5: we get into like everybody running down the street.
Speaker 2: I thought that was good. I think.
Speaker 5: I mean, this whole t Rex coming to San Diego
Speaker 5: is basically King Kong. Yes, guess what now it's a
Speaker 5: dinosaur in San Diego. And you even get like a
Speaker 5: little bit of a callback to an earlier Steven Spielberg
Speaker 5: movie and the seventy six ball from the gas station
Speaker 5: comes rolling behind him, just like later than the Lost Art.
Speaker 6: Yeah, right, right right, it's cool.
Speaker 1: So were you a fan of this whole dinosaur loose
Speaker 1: in San Diego? I was?
Speaker 8: I mean, it's fun. I mean, this is the reason
Speaker 8: why Spielberg wanted to do this movie at all. I
Speaker 8: think he's he said, I always wanted to do a
Speaker 8: Godzilla or a monster movie. You know, he's he's doing it,
Speaker 8: and I think it's it's stupid, and but it works.
Speaker 8: It's it's fun. It's fun to watch, for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's stupid, like the whole point like plot point, like,
Speaker 1: how the heck were they going to actually, yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean this thing in this amphitheater.
Speaker 8: Yeah, well all of that, like the setup of getting
Speaker 8: it there and and this was never in the Crichton sequel,
Speaker 8: not that that was any great work of art or anything,
Speaker 8: but yeah, this is this is just Spielberg running amuck.
Speaker 4: You know, look, he.
Speaker 8: I felt the way he probably felt making this movie.
Speaker 8: Watching this movie, I've just got bored halfway through, and
Speaker 8: I want to go watch Saving Private Ryan now, which
Speaker 8: is his next movie. He wanted to go make a
Speaker 8: war movie next. So but yeah, this this scene kind
Speaker 8: of works as its own five minute sequence, as a
Speaker 8: fun sort of Wow, there's a dinosaur running a muck
Speaker 8: in San Diego, but it's like who cares.
Speaker 1: So upon hearing and smelling the infant, the t Rex
Speaker 1: follows Malcolm and Sarah back to the docks because they
Speaker 1: did get to it. It got it out of the
Speaker 1: little cage there. They got it in their convertible and
Speaker 1: they're you know, they're driving back, get it to the docks. Now,
Speaker 1: Peter Ludlow, he's ordering that the adult male be shot.
Speaker 1: Infant got to be recovered, and he sees Malcolm and
Speaker 1: Sarah carrying the infant to the cargo ship, so he follows,
Speaker 1: only to find the infant in the cargo hold. Malcolm
Speaker 1: and Sarah they leap off the boat, right, I just watched,
Speaker 1: and then Ludlow attell to lure the infant out, but
Speaker 1: soon after here comes the adult t Rex. He enters
Speaker 1: the hold injures Peter Ludlow before allowing the infant to
Speaker 1: do the final kill. I think it even nudges it, right, yep,
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, you do it.
Speaker 2: So Deuce is to Peter one.
Speaker 5: Finally a righteous chomps like Peter deserved it. Man, We've
Speaker 5: been waiting to see this guy get eaten. And then
Speaker 5: he gets eaten by the infant, who's you know, getting
Speaker 5: its first taste of blood.
Speaker 2: Good stuff.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 1: Sarah then launches the Tranquilizer dart. Good shot from her
Speaker 1: right shot is that the do we like? It follows
Speaker 1: the dart shot? Am I crazy?
Speaker 2: It definitely has.
Speaker 8: The barrel and I guess the whole thing was beating
Speaker 8: the chopper right because the dart is just going to
Speaker 8: tranquilize it. But I think the chopper looming over it head.
Speaker 1: It's gonna shoot it.
Speaker 6: They're gonna shoot it because Bledlow gave orders to shoot.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 1: You're right, you're right, But that.
Speaker 8: Wasn't very well explained or pointed out or anything.
Speaker 1: No, so uh, Yeah, the dart hits the t Rex
Speaker 1: and it subdues it enough I guess for Malcolm to
Speaker 1: close the big doors.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh, And and that's sort of it. And then we
Speaker 1: get this other scene. You know, in the aftermath, we're
Speaker 1: watching CNN. They're all asleep. I guess Kelly's watching CNN.
Speaker 1: The Navy. Great point.
Speaker 4: I mean they're tired.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I understand why they're asleep. Yeah, I think it's
Speaker 5: more questionable that she would turn on CNN or not
Speaker 5: change the scene what they're saying.
Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah. The Navy and the new crew are
Speaker 1: escorting the ship back to Lasorna. So then we get
Speaker 1: CNN running an interview with John Hammond. He talks about
Speaker 1: the preservation and isolation of this island. The creatures require
Speaker 1: our absence, so now we just have to leave it alone.
Speaker 1: And then we end with a shot of like all
Speaker 1: the dinosaurs on this island where they're free and we
Speaker 1: get a for the first time, right, uh pterodactyl. Yes,
Speaker 1: that that we see lands on the branch makes a sound.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was camel sound or not.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure there was.
Speaker 3: There was a Spielberg reflection on the screen during the
Speaker 3: CNN report as well.
Speaker 4: That was planned that he was there.
Speaker 1: What do you mean a Spielberg Steven Spielberg in the reflection?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, no, they did on purpose to get Spielberg.
Speaker 3: They just gave Spielberg a little shot in he's the director.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yes, he put.
Speaker 2: Himself into the room with Kelly, Malcolm and Sarah.
Speaker 6: It's just creepily peered in. It's just a decision back
Speaker 6: and watch it.
Speaker 4: I think he is beside Malcolm.
Speaker 3: I think he put both of them. Has the reflection
Speaker 3: just on the screen a choice.
Speaker 5: I also thought that the scene where they first come
Speaker 5: to East Last Serna the second team and like Peters
Speaker 5: in the in the jeep with rolling tembo and they're talking,
Speaker 5: is Peter supposed to be dressed exactly like Steven Spielberg.
Speaker 5: He's got like the hat on, he's small glasses, he
Speaker 5: looks like Spielberg behind.
Speaker 2: The scenes making Jurassic Park. Wow, which I was like,
Speaker 2: an interesting choice to look like you minus the beard
Speaker 2: and stuff.
Speaker 5: But uh, I guess you just want to put his
Speaker 5: touches out there.
Speaker 2: Hey, I made this movie.
Speaker 3: Yeah, seems like there's a lot of that, just like
Speaker 3: maybe we'll do some.
Speaker 4: Stuff, all right.
Speaker 2: Well, that's also I'm thinking. You know what I'm thinking
Speaker 2: when Hammond is talking about saving the animals.
Speaker 5: Don't trust this guy. Do the opposite blow up the ship.
Speaker 5: We just saw the exact opposite when you did it
Speaker 5: at nighttime. The t Rex went nuts and ate everybody
Speaker 5: on the ship, crashed and then devoured people in the
Speaker 5: mainland in the United States. Why would the return journey
Speaker 5: go better?
Speaker 1: Well, and also, like use all this amazing technology you
Speaker 1: guys are good at to just like, uh, view the
Speaker 1: the dinosaurs on this island with that.
Speaker 2: Don't send people, Yeah, don't send people, sending.
Speaker 1: Drones, set up cameras, whatever, let's just track it that way.
Speaker 1: I guess maybe they already are. Why did they have
Speaker 1: to go? It's sort of all stupid. But anyway, that's
Speaker 1: Jurassic Park, the Lost World. Do you have a favorite scene.
Speaker 1: Let's start with you, Tess, favorite scene or your or
Speaker 1: you or the dumbest scene. I'll throw them both at you.
Speaker 3: Guys, best are dumbest. I mean I do like the
Speaker 3: nibbling of the little dinosaur. Ah, just that, okay, just that,
Speaker 3: you know, it's it keeps on going.
Speaker 2: It's not just bothering them.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, you know they fight to death by a
Speaker 4: thousand nibbles. So yeah, that part's fun.
Speaker 5: Me.
Speaker 8: Okay, it's fun the way it's sort of it's a
Speaker 8: nuisance at first, and then it just escalates and escalates
Speaker 8: and then it kills him.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and he's like mean to them and all that.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Course.
Speaker 1: Yeah. As for a dumb scene, our dumbest plot point.
Speaker 4: Now I got to defend the gymnastics move.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, please have that.
Speaker 2: I'm not fighting.
Speaker 3: I'm not fighting for the type of movie. It was
Speaker 3: just for the kids, That's all it was. It was
Speaker 3: just the kids. The kids apparently complained after the first
Speaker 3: movie that there weren't enough dinosaurs.
Speaker 4: So this was just it was literally just for the kids.
Speaker 4: Let the kid do something cool, Let the kid flip.
Speaker 4: It was strange.
Speaker 1: I was wondering, I'm like, okay, this movie came out
Speaker 1: in ninety seven. We had a summer Olympics in ninety six.
Speaker 1: I assume, yeah, like where we ride in that wave.
Speaker 2: That was Kerrie Struggle. I think Carrie Struggle was nineteen
Speaker 2: ninety six.
Speaker 5: I think you're right. Atlanta, that's Atlanta among us. She
Speaker 5: was a huge star. So you can see why gymnastics
Speaker 5: were on the mind.
Speaker 1: Yeap ninety six, when's Gabby Douglass come into our lives
Speaker 1: much much?
Speaker 2: She's like twenty twelve.
Speaker 1: I think okay, I was just like maybe big gymnastics
Speaker 1: like teamed up with big dinosaurs. Yeah, there you go,
Speaker 1: all right, what about you?
Speaker 2: Tre favorite scene?
Speaker 1: And then dumba scene.
Speaker 5: There are three scenes that, like I think, really carry
Speaker 5: the movie from a set piece standpoint, Like I'm with JD.
Speaker 5: I like the San Diego sequence, but it just feels
Speaker 5: completely tacked on, as like Spielberg's like, I'm only making
Speaker 5: this last Jurassic Park movie.
Speaker 2: I gotta do it monster style if I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 5: So I like the scene, but it's probably best just
Speaker 5: watching that scene because it definitely feels like a third
Speaker 5: ending to the movie, which is a little bit weird.
Speaker 2: I also do like.
Speaker 5: The scene when, for whatever reason, they decided to go
Speaker 5: to sleep on the ground in t rex territory. Questionable decision,
Speaker 5: but I love the visual of like the t rex
Speaker 5: poking its head into the tent and when it finally
Speaker 5: wakes up, it stands up and it's got the.
Speaker 2: Tent all its head. I think that's played pretty well.
Speaker 5: That leads to the guy getting stomped and stepped on
Speaker 5: the bottom of his foot, and then uh long hair
Speaker 5: guy getting eaten after it gets bit by a snake.
Speaker 5: I think that's all pretty good. But best scene for
Speaker 5: me is r V going over the edge.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 5: I think it's the whole part of it is good.
Speaker 5: Starting with you think it's one dino. I think it's
Speaker 5: one t Rex. It turns out to be two of them.
Speaker 5: They get the thing back, They do leave and come
Speaker 5: back quite a good time, for sure. But every time
Speaker 5: I'm like, oh, yeah, t rexes are bad. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 5: that's for dumbest syn.
Speaker 2: The Flipping Man. Yeah, it's a big.
Speaker 1: Grow It's tough not to grow at that. Yeah, j D.
Speaker 2: Any other dumb scenes or are you going with that one?
Speaker 8: I'm going with that one. I again, Uh Doctor Malcolm
Speaker 8: jazz dancing with.
Speaker 1: I rewatch that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's hilarious.
Speaker 8: I actually love it, so I shouldn't say it's the dumbest.
Speaker 8: I had a shout out Vince Vaughan here backing up
Speaker 8: a cargo van in that warehouse.
Speaker 6: Scene, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8: The first time we see him, Okay, he's just backing
Speaker 8: up a vent and it like right onto the set,
Speaker 8: right on him. It's it's mark, you know, and then
Speaker 8: he gets out and then they have the whole green
Speaker 8: peace talk. But just imagine you're Vince Vaughan. You you're
Speaker 8: the movie. Your breakup movie hasn't even come out yet,
Speaker 8: I don't think, or it just came out. You're working
Speaker 8: with Steven Spielberg for the first time. I'm nervous backing
Speaker 8: up a vent in general, like my car, Like I
Speaker 8: don't think I'd be able to back up my car,
Speaker 8: but the pressure, you know what I mean, It's like,
Speaker 8: you're not just acting, you're driving a van backwards, hitting
Speaker 8: a mark, getting out all in one shot.
Speaker 6: Like that's impressed.
Speaker 1: We don't know how many takes it took.
Speaker 6: We don't Well, you're right, but.
Speaker 1: Exactly by weeks.
Speaker 6: Yeah, go back and watch it.
Speaker 8: He's just very confidently just backs up that van and
Speaker 8: I was like, God, damn, it's fine.
Speaker 2: Character Nick too. I guess I skip by it.
Speaker 1: He stole the particular bullets right from from Roland.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that is a dumb scene to me. That is
Speaker 8: a dumb thing that he does. Another dumb thing that
Speaker 8: the character does in the movie, like, why would you
Speaker 8: You've already sort of met and you know, you have
Speaker 8: your differences with Tembo, but you know he's the one
Speaker 8: guy that could probably protect you from a t Rex. Yeah,
Speaker 8: you know, let him have his bullets, you know, and
Speaker 8: that and that's the reason why if he hadn't have
Speaker 8: taken those bullets, that t Rex would have been probably
Speaker 8: dead and not on the island or in San Diego, right,
Speaker 8: because he ends up having to tranquilize him instead.
Speaker 5: So anyway, why two shotgun blasts taken down a t Rex?
Speaker 4: You think?
Speaker 6: Did you see those bullets? I don't know. I trusted
Speaker 6: Tembo trust in.
Speaker 1: Is he your favorite character from this movie by a lot? Yeah?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean he's a caricature of the you know,
Speaker 8: the Great Hunter whatever. But I think Posselthwaite nails it.
Speaker 8: I mean I think you said it like he's he's
Speaker 8: great and everything.
Speaker 1: So Eric does develop I guess.
Speaker 6: Too, it's got an arc.
Speaker 8: He's he's I'm gonna kill the biggest predator, and then
Speaker 8: he's like, you know what respect to the biggest predator?
Speaker 6: Uh, what's his line?
Speaker 8: I've I've I believe I've spent enough time in the
Speaker 8: company of death.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great line.
Speaker 1: So he's, uh, he's really heartbroken over a guy that
Speaker 1: died out there too, that we barely met in this movie. Yeah,
Speaker 1: who we see like in a handful of scenes. But
Speaker 1: he's like, he's devastated that he's been killed.
Speaker 2: Whatever these guys doing before, Yeah, it's.
Speaker 1: Like a lot of they're isolated. I'm sure a lot
Speaker 1: of big game hunting, spending a lot of time bonding. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's you know, broke Back Mountain or anything,
Speaker 1: but you never know, you never know, he was heartbroken.
Speaker 1: They had a strong bond.
Speaker 3: Maybe this is why the w NBA chose Toronto Tempo Tembo.
Speaker 3: It's close, it's not.
Speaker 7: It's not.
Speaker 4: Raptors first Tembo.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 1: That's good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I totally like Tembo is my favorite character to it.
Speaker 5: You totally buy him as like a big game hunter
Speaker 5: Peter Posselthwaite, perfect casting. Vince Vaughan is the opposite to me.
Speaker 5: You hear a lot of criticisms of a movie nowadays.
Speaker 5: People will say that face has seen his cell phone,
Speaker 5: like playing You look.
Speaker 2: Too modern for me.
Speaker 5: I don't feel like Vince Vaughan has spent a day
Speaker 5: outdoors in his life outside of shooting this specific movie.
Speaker 2: Doesn't seem like an outdoors guy. I'm less surprised that
Speaker 2: he could perfectly back up a van right like. He
Speaker 2: seems like he.
Speaker 5: Would be a good driver. I don't know why. More
Speaker 5: realistic as a driver than a photographer to me?
Speaker 4: Yeah, truth, has he been ten in any other movie?
Speaker 3: It's a great Yeah, he looked he's always very fair skinned.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought about it that, but he does.
Speaker 8: He does escape the island pretty well manicured, you know
Speaker 8: what I mean. He doesn't look as dirty as you
Speaker 8: would think he would after that, after an adventure like that. Yeah,
Speaker 8: at least in my mind, as I'm thinking back. But
Speaker 8: maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 1: So let's let's rank the Lost World here. You know,
Speaker 1: in comparison to Jurassic Park, I have a feeling it's
Speaker 1: going to be slotted in behind that which we called
Speaker 1: basically a perfect movie. I will tell you fifty six
Speaker 1: percent on Rotten Tomatoes for the Lost World from the critics,
Speaker 1: fifty two percent from the fans. I feel like that's
Speaker 1: pretty rare. See the fans with the lower score than
Speaker 1: the critics, but they're in the same ballpark. Roger Ebert
Speaker 1: two out of four stars for The Lost World. I'll
Speaker 1: read you a small piece, he said, quote the film's
Speaker 1: structure is weird. I thought it was over. Let it
Speaker 1: began again. There you go with the San Diego secrets,
Speaker 1: in which Spielberg seemed to be trying to upstate. Is
Speaker 1: the upcoming Godzilla movie? Because that was right, Roderick coming
Speaker 1: out soon?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: And can we and can we really believe that a
Speaker 1: ship could ram appear at full speed and remain seaworthy?
Speaker 1: Good point? The problem with the moon Rogers, Yes, the
Speaker 1: problem with the movie is that the dinosaurs aren't allowed
Speaker 1: to be the stars. Wow, that's what Roger thinks. So
Speaker 1: on a scale of one to ten, how would you
Speaker 1: rank this movie? The Lost World Jurassic Park.
Speaker 4: Roger put it perfectly. This is a two out of ten.
Speaker 4: Careful what you did. Yeah, you're running, you're so Yeah.
Speaker 3: I've never been good at the hey rank these five
Speaker 3: things ranked, these ten things. I always slought it way
Speaker 3: too low. You're right that that's potentially my mistake.
Speaker 4: But that's low. It's low.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't. There's no comparison. But the dinos are
Speaker 3: not featured. I agree they so they have to. Spielberg
Speaker 3: goes in a different direction than the Wonder anticipation.
Speaker 4: But there has to be a better way than just
Speaker 4: a boom dino, boom, dina boom China. It's just too fast,
Speaker 4: there's too much. It's low. It's so low for me, unfortunately.
Speaker 1: Okay, two out of ten? Where are you going, Trey?
Speaker 2: It's a five out of ten for me.
Speaker 5: I do like the action pieces in this, like all
Speaker 5: the different dinosaur attacks. I like that they bring back
Speaker 5: some new or start with some new dinosaurs that we
Speaker 5: hadn't seen before.
Speaker 2: A favorite dino for me is the.
Speaker 5: Friar Tuck, who we're told his skull is nine inches
Speaker 5: of solid bone.
Speaker 2: So I tell Laura every.
Speaker 1: Night, this guy's going Friar Tuck a little.
Speaker 2: Hey, tuck me in, Laura.
Speaker 5: But but I forgive it.
Speaker 2: That's the Friar Tuck Like.
Speaker 5: That's kind of the problem with the movie to me
Speaker 5: is it's so much darker.
Speaker 2: And dumber to me than the first one.
Speaker 5: We liked all the happy, joy filled parts, which make
Speaker 5: the terror parts play a lot better. In Jurassic Park one,
Speaker 5: we don't have any light moments really in this one.
Speaker 5: It's kind of the same way as Temple of Doom
Speaker 5: was so much darker than Raiders of the Lost Dark
Speaker 5: right rad Like, it's just insanity the entire way through,
Speaker 5: And that's what this one is like to me. And
Speaker 5: like we said at the end of last episode, those
Speaker 5: moments where they're enjoying the park are some of the
Speaker 5: best moments because it makes everything hit so much harder afterwards,
Speaker 5: whereas this one, it's like, we meet a stegosaurus.
Speaker 2: Oh cute, it's a herbivore.
Speaker 5: But guess what, even this one's going crazy trying to
Speaker 5: knock people out.
Speaker 2: It's just a different movie, and this is the mark
Speaker 2: a little bit for me.
Speaker 5: So five out of ten action, cool, plot and character
Speaker 5: development not so much, okay.
Speaker 8: D Yeah, I'm with you, Trey. I think it's a
Speaker 8: five out of ten for me. I but for different reasons.
Speaker 8: I don't mind that it wanted to go for a
Speaker 8: darker tone. I want it. You know, we would if
Speaker 8: Jeff Goblum showed up and he was just the same
Speaker 8: character as before, but being a dad, we would criticize
Speaker 8: that for not having enough depth in character to it. So,
Speaker 8: but I think it was a mistake having him the
Speaker 8: lead of this movie. He should have just stayed out
Speaker 8: of this movie. Let Vince Vaughan take over or whatever.
Speaker 8: You know, it's just a problem. The movie itself is
Speaker 8: just it's just not good, you know, I guess is
Speaker 8: what I'm trying to say. It's that there are set
Speaker 8: pieces that I did find kind of entertainment, entertaining. Spielberg,
Speaker 8: you know, his worst movies. You can learn a lot
Speaker 8: from watching them, you know, like he's he's a very
Speaker 8: good director. He just did not seem to be that
Speaker 8: interested in making this particular movie. I don't know if
Speaker 8: he got tired or bored, or he just wanted to
Speaker 8: move on to save a Private Ryan, which is a
Speaker 8: very good movie. But yeah, five out of ten for me,
Speaker 8: I don't know, it was a wasted opportunity. It's just
Speaker 8: made me angry more than anything. You got some great
Speaker 8: actors and an amazing cast. You know, you could have
Speaker 8: done so much more with this. I mean, he should
Speaker 8: have just passed it on to somebody else. Let Fincher,
Speaker 8: somebody direct it, right, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I think I'm in the ballpark of you guys. I'll
Speaker 1: go four out of ten. I was gonna go five,
Speaker 1: but I'll switch it up here. It is funny, like
Speaker 1: roughly fifty percent more dinosaur action in this movie than
Speaker 1: the first one. Yeah, but it's half as good if
Speaker 1: that so, I don't know what that says. There's just
Speaker 1: so many like there are a lot of holes in
Speaker 1: the plot of this movie, or a lot of things
Speaker 1: where you're like what what like you just even if
Speaker 1: I'm being honest, like just Malcolm going back to this
Speaker 1: place the first place speaks to me what you were saying, JB.
Speaker 1: But his his odd relationship with his girlfriend who he
Speaker 1: must save but doesn't even seem all that in love
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Odd.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's not great. I stopped it at
Speaker 1: one point, like it's a long movie, Like I said,
Speaker 1: it's two hour plus. Like I definitely stopped it at
Speaker 1: around an hour or so in like there's an hour left,
Speaker 1: I'm like, what the hell?
Speaker 2: And then it has that whole part where you do
Speaker 2: think it's over.
Speaker 1: You're like, Okay, it's done. You're like, oh no, We're
Speaker 1: going to San Diego, which is cool, does look cool,
Speaker 1: but it's like, yeah, thrown on at the end. So
Speaker 1: I'm a four to ten man. Yeah, fails in comparison
Speaker 1: to the first one. But that's our thoughts. Let's hear
Speaker 1: from you when it comes to the Lost World Jurassic Park.
Speaker 1: Does it get better? Does it get worse? Jurassic Park
Speaker 1: three is our next movie that we're tackling in Jurassic Pals,
Speaker 1: released in two thousand and one. Uh, Doctor Allan Grant
Speaker 1: is back. He's back, So there's that to look forward to.
Speaker 1: I don't does this get more campy?
Speaker 4: Want?
Speaker 6: Do you want to answer that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Tell me it gets worse. Oh I think it gets worse.
Speaker 8: But Trey, you just watched it.
Speaker 2: I did.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, hey, look what do you think.
Speaker 5: I can't spoil my thoughts, but I watched it.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it here.
Speaker 2: Here's the best part about Jurassic Park three.
Speaker 5: It gets compared to Jurassic Park two, whereas Grassic Park
Speaker 5: two gets compared to Jurassic Park one.
Speaker 1: Yes, good point. So that next Jurassic Pals coming next Friday.
