So the movie Jack and I watched this week. 9 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 4: Deal with the letter J in the nineties was the great. 10 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 4: Jurassic Park came out in nineteen ninety three to so 11 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 4: much height because it was Spielberg, it was dinosaurs. There 12 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,599 Speaker 4: was a lot of talk about the amazing special effects. 13 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 4: Spielberg to say, I just said that he wanted to 14 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 4: try and make jawels on land. 15 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 3: I watched it again yesterday. It's still great. It stacks 16 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 3: up so well. 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 2: I don't have a bad word to say about Jurassic Park. 18 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 2: It is the king of movies. 19 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a really, really well made action Blockbuster went 20 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 4: on to make that year alone one billion dollars, right, 21 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 4: that's US dollars, and that's probably worth a lot more. Now. 22 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 4: Spielberg got two hundred and fifty million of that. Deserve 23 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 4: to be penny of it as well, because honestly, Spielberg 24 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,559 Speaker 4: won the Greatest Storytellers ever right in this year nineteen 25 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 4: ninety three, right he only directed to have two movies out. 26 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 4: He does Jurassic Part which is incredibly He also did 27 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 4: the movie which my kids had to watch it at school, 28 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 4: and rightly so all kids should have to watch it 29 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 4: because I think it actually tells some of the story 30 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 4: of what happened in the Second World War. He also 31 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 4: did Shindler's List. I do know think there's another director 32 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 4: who's got that kind of range. Then he was then 33 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 4: filming Schenner's List whilst in Poland, whilst also editing the 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 4: final bit. I don't even know how that man his 35 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 4: bandwidth to. 36 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 3: Do all the stuff he's done in his career. 37 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 4: But two amazing movies, not just of the nineties to 38 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 4: just incredible movies. 39 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 2: And it's important for kids to watch Shindler's List at 40 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: the high school. But I still think there's room for 41 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 2: Jurassic Park and a whole year on Jurassic Park alone. 42 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 3: So a couple of facts about it. 43 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 4: Right, It's off a very good book, Michael Critchen book 44 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 4: as well, which hadn't even been written Jurassic Part Spielberg 45 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 4: just heard about what it was going to be about, 46 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 4: paid him two millions straight away, going I'll make the 47 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 4: movie that you haven't he written the. 48 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: Book that's the easiest two movies. I'm going to write 49 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: a book about that. 50 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 3: Spielberg is going to make your movie. Spielberg said as well, 51 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: I was watching this interview with him. 52 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 4: Has said that the most important thing as a director 53 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 4: before even started making the movie is he wanted to 54 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 4: direct it like a child. So that's why when you 55 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 4: watch it right, a lot of the shots are coming 56 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 4: from a child's point of view looking up at the dinosaur, 57 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 4: because you're seeing it like you know, you see these 58 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 4: godsilla movies. Now you're just seeing very two big things 59 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 4: fight each other and it's almost out there level. But 60 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 4: when you're seeing it from a child's point of view 61 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 4: looking up, but you see the ore again the world 62 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 4: and what it would be like. He wanted. He wanted 63 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 4: us to fillot whether you an adult or a child, 64 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 4: that you want what it would be like if you 65 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 4: really did. 66 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 3: See a dinosaur. 67 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 4: Now you'd be scared in the awe of. 68 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: It, and were you shocked that a movie that's thirty 69 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: years old now can still look so good with the 70 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 2: dinosaurs look great. 71 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 4: They were all the CGI now so it's not that 72 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 4: I'm a geek with too much time of hands. 73 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 3: Yesterday. 74 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 4: There were only fifty five CGI shots in that movie 75 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 4: an average movie now, right, are compared to say Doctor 76 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 4: Strange without the moment. There's two and a half thousand, right, 77 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: CGI shots in one movie, two and offre thousand that 78 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 4: are computer animated. They're not made with humans or any 79 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 4: physical things. There's only fifty five in Jurassic Party. Still 80 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 4: actually use a lot of animatronic dinosaurs and they. 81 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 2: Look great, and they built the dinosaurs all right. So 82 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: I watched it with Bianka last night and we said. 83 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: Did you both enjoy it? We love?

There were mesopotamias, 91 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 4: but Mesopotomian world and part doesn't sound that great as 92 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 4: Jurassic does it. 93 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 2: So this isaurus about the Stegosaurus.

Didn't look at that. 97 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 3: He's a storyteller. It's fantasy about a dinosaur theme park. 98 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 5: And the lostha Raptor should have feathers. They've done that long. Actually, 99 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 5: I thought the whole cast are great and as well. 100 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 5: Sam Nil's character was originally offered to Harrison Ford, but 101 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 5: he said to Spielberg, I'm not your guy because he 102 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 5: wanted that kind of wise talking like a hand, So 103 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 5: no in it. 104 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 3: And then when Harrison. 105 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 4: Ford saw it, he rang Spielberg and went, Sam, you 106 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 4: got your guy. Sam was way a bit I would 107 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 4: have it would have been a different movie, not a 108 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 4: great movie. 109 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 3: Sam Nil's great in it. 110 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 4: Jeff Goldblum is incredible with that character, that sort of 111 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 4: just someone riffing a mile of minute stuff of that. 112 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 4: You see that character in action movie stall to this day. 113 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 4: And it started really with the Jurassic part.
