In the UK, JP1 is having a cinema re-release in the run-up to the bluray release. I was going to watch JP3 with the kids this weekend (already seen 1 and 2), but tempted to go and watch the first one on the big screen with them.

 

[RoboPlato]

I'll buy this based on the price. I love 1 and also liked Lost World quite a bit but I don't want to pay much of a premium for 3.

 

[Huevos de Oro]

It's the first one the one I really want. The other two are just a bonus.

 

[Danielsan]

Can't wait to rewatch these movies (well, the first two at least). The original Jurasic Park was such an amazing film, especially to the 6 year old me who loved Dinosaurs more than anything on the planet. Did not get to see it in theaters though. I did however see The Lost World in theaters and fuck the shit that people give that movie. It was amazing. Raptors in the tall grass, T-rex in the city, shit was just great. Three sucked, no arguments there.

And yes the T-rex in Jurassic Park still shits on 99% of the CG out there. Such an astounding accomplishment.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Heh, strategically placed car censorship

And yeah, I definitely waiting on the individual release of the first one.

1 > 3 > 2

Is that the general consensus?

 

[strafer]

1 > 3 > 2

Is that the general consensus?

More like 1 > 1 > 1

 

[kkaabboomm]

1 > 3 > 2

Is that the general consensus?

not really IMO. 1>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>2>>>>>3

3 was godawful in every way, shape, and form.

 

[Live Free or Die]

F YEAH!

 

[itwasTuesday]

Camera movement so good.

 

[crazy monkey]

3 was so awful I do not even consider it JP. 2 was only bad after city parts. 1 is classic.

 

[strafer]

This is the tin version.

You know it was playing in your head when you saw that thread title.

no, this was

don't remember 3. surely not *that* bad? Ok for kids that like dinosaurs?

 

[crazy monkey]

For kids ofcourse. Show them one first as always than 2 and than 3.

 

[Guardian Bob]

I liked 3. It has a nostalgia feel to it and returning to the runes of Jurassic Park is awesome.

 

[NekoFever]

I'm desperate to see some screens from this. I want it badly and I've got my finger hovering over the preorder button but Universal's track record on remasters is pretty awful.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

1 > 3 > 2

Is that the general consensus?

I'd go 1 > 2 > 3 with both 2 and 3 sucking pretty bad. 2 had Pete Postlewaithe so there's that. 3 had the divorced parents finding love again admist the backdrop of dino carnage.

 

[JB1981]

As I have gotten older I have come to realize that the original Jurassic Park is merely a film of great set pieces. After the nighttime T-Rex sequence it goes downhill fast.

 

[JB1981]

One of the best movie moments of all time... I remember watching that T-Rex escape as a youngster in the theater. I was holding on to the arm rests so hard, totally fixated on what was happening on the screen. Half scared to death, half amazed.

Same for me. I think this also released around the same time as Dolby Digital or DTS or SDDS (one of those) and the sound was absolutely UNREAL

 

[bengraven]

This, the Star Wars and LOTR EE are the only reasons I'm finally buying a Blu Ray player.

 

[JB1981]

This, the Star Wars and LOTR EE are the only reasons I'm finally buying a Blu Ray player.

Really? Man, there ares sooo many other good reasons to own a blu-ray player. You are missing out.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Same for me. I think this also released around the same time as Dolby Digital or DTS or SDDS (one of those) and the sound was absolutely UNREAL

Jurassic Park was the first film in DTS, so it is their baby.

 

[The perfect Dark]

First movie is one of the best movies ever made. 2 is not very good but 3 is the pinnacle of crap.

In my opinion they should have gone back to Islar Nublar in the second movie. I want to see how it looks like after all these years...plus the theme park set creates the best atmosphere.

 

[Escape Goat]

Why would anyone want 2 or 3?

 

[Fallout-NL]

I never understood what the context of this gif is.

And you never will.

 

[Jobiensis]

Why would anyone want 2 or 3?

Because they were just fine as popcorn flicks.

They certainly aren't as well put together as the first one, but both of them had decent moments and would look and sound nice on my setup. I'm not waiting to get this.

Limited Edition unboxing.

Ugh, WTF Universal!? Back to the Future packaging!? FUCK YOU.

 

[Shadow780]

Doesn't feel right buying this when the 4th one is coming, I bet there's another compilation box. Just want the first one individually.

 

[RoboPlato]

Why would anyone want 2 or 3?

I like 2 quite a bit, although obviously it's not a classic like 1. 3 is absolutely terrible though.

 

[antonz]

ugh now I want the limited edition set. such a whore for the collectables

 

[mrklaw]

is it remastered? reading some impressions for the cinema re-release and its sounding grainy. Maybe they aren't using the remaster for the cinema and its just a quick cash-in during a quiet period..

 

[Solo]

Why would anyone want 2 or 3?

Same reasons people wanted 2 and 3 of BTTF or 3 and 4 of Alien - they are either masochists or completely blind to the avalanche-esque drop in every single facet of filmmaking between the first film (in the Alieen case, the first two films) and the subsequent ones.

As was the case with the Alien set, and as will be the case with the BTTF set sooner or later, a patient person will be rewarded when they release the JP individually a year from now.

Some more gifs for your enjoyment.

What no Clever Girl?

 

[TacticalFox88]

My problem with 3 is how the Spinosaurus escaped T-Rexes jaw. I wanted to walk out of the theater at that moment. Just all kinds of WTF.

 

[strafer]

What no Clever Girl?

Actually made on yesterday.

Short version though.

 

[Mr. Sam]

My problem with 3 is how the Spinosaurus escaped T-Rexes jaw. I wanted to walk out of the theater at that moment. Just all kinds of WTF.

I was just about done with the dreams of talking velociraptors.

ALAN!

 

[Kuran]

No way will the CG hold up in HD

JP1 barely has cg, thats why it still looks good.

 

[thebeeks]

But the cell phone in the dinosaur's stomach that everyone can hear didn't bug you?

She was so cute.

 

[Divius]

Quoted again for justice.

Fucking awesome. Recently watched JP and it was amazing, can't recall the other 2.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

German Edition.

Do you have a link? Amazon only has the shitty figurine. :/

 

[PjotrStroganov]

 

[crazy monkey]

why are you posting picture of duck with tail and calling it raptor?

 

[FOOTE]

I'm waiting for the first to be released by itself.

 

[MoonsaultSlayer]

This is why the next movie cannot be JP4 but an entirely new reboot. Feathers, sizes, characteristics, coloring... there's been so many advancements with dinosaur knowledge since the books and movies.

 

[hayguyz]

hooooo leeeeeeee shit

I never knew there was a JP3.
