Does clever girl still kill muldooon?
point being?
Michael Crichton's area of strength is technical descriptions. There is no author better than him, but the characters and who dies aren't that important.
books where much better than any of the movies. first book especially. killed hammond too
>Does clever girl still kill muldooon?
Muldoon survives, and also has a rocket launcher.
Muldoon survives in the book, they killed him off in the movie because they knew he had cancer and didn't know he would survive until the 2nd movie.
He did.
correct. except Congo. that shit was so fucking dated it was unreadable for me back in late 90's. boring as fuck exposition, and describing this piss slow satellite communications and how it worked and how slow it was. ugh. that book did not age well.
>ian malcolm doesn't die
he doesn't die in the movie either
>no author better at technical descriptions
Go read The Mote in God's Eye, and stop thinking Crichton is anything more than an airplane read.
he dies in the book I mean
He DOES die in the book. He just gets retconned into the sequel, just like how Crichton retcons his "T-Rex can only see movement" by calling his own character stupid.
does the character still appears in the second book?
>no subplot about Lucy and her huge vagina
>creepy doctor doesn't appear and offer to make Lucy's vagina tighter
>the size of Sonny's dick and the fact that he's the only one who could fill up Lucy goes largely unmentioned. All we get is Sonny's wife showing the size of his dick.
Sure, The Godfather was good. But think about how great it could have been.
The doctor was also a creepy Jew who was an abortionist. The child rapist who was a movie producer was also Jewish. WTF Puzo?
This is a cheap romance book where a shark sometimes shows up.
i read this book two years ago and don't remember any of that shit. i don't even remember malcolm dying, just thought he got really high off morphine and road it out.
main thing i think they should have left in was the old guy being more of an outright villain and then getting fucking owned by compies at the end. the movie climax is certainly better with raptors getting killed by the trex instead of the retard book bit where they're in the lab and jsut start throwing beakers of chemicals of them til they die
movie version of congo is kino
>no kung fu lawyer fighting two Raptors by hand
(((They))) took this from you
I only know the details because of the youtube series "What's the difference".
At the end of Jurassic Park they go into the raptor nest. It's retarded
jaws the book the movie the book from the movie
Spoiler alerts, bro
I'm reading it right now
>no camouflaged carnotosaurus scene
You rang, bro?
>complex systems that I'm too stupid to understand are destined to fail! man shouldn't play god!!!!
What a fucking retard
But it didn't fail. It succeeded beyond their imagination. Do you REALLY not understand the point of the book? Is that what happens when you just watch the movie?
>derp
>Boomer with money and access to beanerland fucks everything up.
Still a good message.
That is not good literature
The invisible carnos weren't until the sequel anyways
A challenger appears
>Implying the Rex chasing Grant and the kids like something out of Looney Tunes would make it better.
That's why I liked Jurassic Park 3. It put in a lot of things from the first book that never made it into the movie.
Better technical writing than anything Crichton could come up with. You prefer biological sci-fi? Go read Darwin's Radio.
Correct, I haven't read the book. Are you telling me the book doesn't have some equivalent of Malcolm's retarded "dude nature pushes back, life finds a way" speech?
I'll go along with that
I’m reading war of the worlds and there’s a part during the exodus of London where an “eagle faced man” drops a bunch of money and gets trampled after trying to retrieve it. Where was that scene in Spielberg’s adaptation?
Malcolm, yes, but Malcolm is written as a popsci, Michael Kaku-esque blowhard and as such is giving a trite understanding.
The concept is that EVEN IF you have understanding over the system, the extreme complexity means the tiniest difference in initial conditions can have wildly different and impossible to anticipate consequences. It has nothing to do with the system failing.
At least in the movie, the system wasn't that complex. Chaos theory wasn't really a factor. Hammond was just a retard who cut corners.
Test
If Hammond had given Nedry that raise this shit would have never happened.
If Hammond actually spared no expense the movie would just be some people looking at dinosaurs in cages
No he survives and she's just playing with him.
from wikipedia : In November 1994, Peck was diagnosed with an undisclosed type of cancer.
Jurassic Park was released in 1993.
So i guess you're just full of shit
>Luca subplot dropped
>Darwin's Radio
Oh man, that was a good read
what was up with all that?
>Nedry's book death
The first one is from the second book. And whatever cool scenes were left out from the first movie they were used for sequels and I'm glad because the movie is perfect the way it is and the strength of the book doesn't lie in dinosaurs chase scenes or some commando action hero cliches anyway.
I'm so glad the first movie is toned down and kept its dinosaur scenes to very effective minimum and only escalated things in the sequels. The pacing is so perfect.
*HOOTING*
And that's, that's chaos theory. In the book the dinosaurs are off the island from the start. In the movie what brings it down is industrial espionage because one worker felt overworked and underappreciated. Unpredictability of complex systems who could've known?
Both books are rich with content.. Some of the coolest shit imaginable and yet everything Jurassic Park since The Lost World is head scratching.. Michael Crichten literally wrote The Lost World with the idea Spielberg would turn it into an action movie and Spielberg threw out 90% of his ideas.
I keep saying Jurassic Park will be best rebooted.. Turn this shit into a HBO series or something because I would kill to see a faithful adaptation of Jurassic Park and The Lost World.
Let's be real the scene was straight up bizarre
>no mini pet elephant
That was the worst change.
This. Whenever I think about the book I think about that scene.
Best scenes of the book were all the "control" ones with dialogue on topics ranging from computers, philosophy, genetics and paleontology or just counting the dinos. This is something that is in the movie but because the medium is different they couldn't devote as much time to them. So this is what stands out to me about the book no dinosaurs scenes because I know what's in the movie can never be topped but I loved reading those talky chapters.
The movie is better than the book.
God I gotta see that movie again. Should I read the books? The only thing that I've read by Crighton (I believe) is The Andromeda Strain - I enjoyed it.
It's an unfair comparison when the movie in question is Jurassic Park. Crichton was very important in its production anyway.
And the book is still entertaining though the ending is kind of weird and not in a good way.
this is what really separates the mediums in my opinion, a books pacing allows this whereas a movie is confined within the limits of its run duration and as such can never really have any meaningful dialog unless its specifically designed to be, ie waking life.
His ideas are great and make it worth reading most of his books. Characters are meh. But I truly enjoy his schlock
Yeah the raptor cave was really strange. I remember as a kid getting to that point and being pretty disappointed.
I really can't decide if I like the book or the movie better. At least the author got to see some of the movie and said the visuals of the city were just like he envisioned.
yeah, he blows up raptors
pretty fucking based
>At least the author got to see some of the movie and said the visuals of the city were just like he envisioned.
very cool
youtube.com
Still think Wu's death was the worst.
I love both (I saw the movie first) but they're different enough in style, plot, pacing and theme that I almost consider them unrelated at this point.
>the visuals of the city were just like he envisioned
based Ridley (for his first few films at least)
>Towards the end of the book Lex and Tim find a baby raptor in a dinosaur nursery where new-borns are reared. The baby is playful, almost happy to see the humans--a far cry from the adult raptors, who are depicted as animalistic, borderline-psychopathic killers. Not long after finding the infant, adult raptors arrive--and as a distraction Tim throws the baby their way before he's spotted. As Tim (who is older in the novel) leads Lex to an escape he looks back to see the baby raptor in the jaws of its elder, before another raptor tears at its limbs. All three raptors proceed to fight over the baby's remains. Nom.
NOOOOOO NOT THE HECKING BABY RAPTORINO NOOOOOOOOOO
Is Lost World good? I got so fucking bored with it.
Ive heard the book title a thousand times and only now has its existential weight dawned on me. damn bruh
Crichton has a fuckton of good books. I liked Timeline alot for example.
Book is a great read after you watch the movie. They are so different.
The raft scene with the swimming t-rex was in Jurassic Park : Rampage Edition
You're reminding me of all types of weird shit they cut. There is a scene where Allen rolls a raptor egg he injected with poison into a room with raptors. One raptor eats it, foams from the mouth, then dies. At the end of the movie the military(I forget which nation's) bombs the island. All throughout the book these little dinosaurs escape to the mainland and appear to start breeding.
