"All major theme parks have delays. When they opened Disneyland in 1956, nothing worked!"

Jurassic Park might still be my favorite Steven Spielberg film. For me it is timeless and never fails to entertain me. First of all, it has Dinosaurs, which makes every film better. That is just based on facts. It has Jeff Goldblum who is just always great. Sam Neill brings it alongside Laura Dern. And off course Wayne Knight. And let us not forget about Samuel L. Jackson!

Anyway, how about that score? One of John Williams's best. When the theme song kicks in it is just goosebumps all over. It works everywhere. Like when you ride the Jurassic Park River Adventure in Universal Orlando and those gates open with the theme playing. Freaking love it. Hopefully I can return there in 2022 when I want to go back across the Atlantic.

Jurassic Park is one of the best adventure movies of the 90's, it is epic, one of Spielberg's finest blockbusters and one that will never fail to entertain me.

Ps. You all know what they call a blind dinosaur right?

3 Thoughts After Re-Watching ‘Jurassic Park’:

1. Thank you, Steven Spielberg, for creating my favorite movie of all time. THIS is your masterpiece. I first saw this in the movie theater with my little league team, and it transcended any cinematic experience I had ever had. It raised the bar. And very few experiences have ever come close to it ever again.

2. Thank you, John Williams, for creating one of the greatest scores of all time. Majestic, epic, beautiful, hopeful, and inspiring. This story could not properly be told without it.

3. There are too many thoughts to share for something so iconic. This was a lightning-in-a-bottle film. Just perfection. The cast, the pacing, the realism for something so fantastical. Pure magic. And :asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol:nothing:asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol: — no sequel to ever come forth since — will ever meet its greatness.

Bonus Thought: Thank you, Michael Crichton.

Film still holds all of its original charm and the effects hold well for a 20 year movie... better than some more recent ones. Excellent.

I think this might be the best Spielberg movie. It still holds up very well. The acting is great. The music is perfect and the special effects still look very good. They aren't anywhere near today's standards but they don't distract.
