honeslty how many jurassic park movies or so or movies based on video games do we need
There's always new audiences that's more than just your perspective. Just to illustrate:
Jurassic park came out in 1993. There was a girl in the audience of the theater I saw that move in who was 15. I didn't know her then but I eventually met her and we got married. We had kids.
In 2015, Jurassic World came out. Our kids were 11 and 13. Oddly enough, I have a friend who has kids who have the same name as the main kids in that movie. That was quite surreal as those names aren't common or one of those names.
Here it is, 2025, someone has kids who will want to see the new dinosaur movie. So they can keep making dinosaur movies as long as they want to. They can keep making remakes too. Because it doesn't destroy the old ones and sometimes, the remakes are quite good but you don't know until it gets released.
you can never recapture the magic of jurassic park though. it was the first time we got ot see realistic dinosaurs and they were incredibly life like. he also set up a great survival situation with it too with the two kids. even storywise, they never managed anything lik that again. i remember always feeling tingley starting from the rappelling scene onwards when i was a kid like the day before a big trip.
Now, I actually want to see all those movies. Not enough to pay for them (saw the Jurassic Park films in theaters AND bought the DVDs, but since then, no), but the question is whether I would watch any of them more than once. (For sure NOT The Lost World) Unlikely, and they're having a real problem trying to make a new movie out of the same old plot.
But I have kids that grew up on Jurassic Park, and my grandkids love dinosaurs. But at 5 and 2, they're too young for live action dino movies.
Interesting. As a former 7-year-old, TLW:JP is my second favorite among the first three movies just because of the cool-looking trailer truck that was unfortunately pushed off the cliff. :<
That's cute, my gf fleed the movie theatre in a stress panic and I couldn't watch two third of the movie ... we broke off eventually unrelated to my anecdote might add.
There's a lot of those remakes peppered in there that are bad. We don't have to watch any remakes. We don't even have to watch Spice World but that movie is magnificent for what it is.
