ARE YOU READY TO GO BACK TO JURASSIC PARK? OR DOES IT LOOKS LIKE IT’S COMING TO US
Written by Tony Schultz on November 25, 2021
Dinosaurs! They never cease to amaze us regardless of our age or whether we are looking at fossils or seeing a computer generated dino on our TV or movie screen. They are something we have never seen in person alive and running around. We see remnants of them in lizards and other species in our world. Ever since 1993 when Steven Spielberg gave us the timeless Jurassic Park with dinosaurs looking so real many thought that they actually had resurrected the beasts. Sorry, that’s just really good special effects balanced between animatronics and computer-generated visuals. The subsequent sequels took us to new locations and showed that the greed to control these animals never seems to end. The most recent ones starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard have given the franchise a more modern or even futuristic look and have carried on the terror of dinosaurs coming back to life. In the real world of science they have actually tried harvesting dinosaur DNA just like in the movies and there has been recent attempts to resurrect wooly mammoths from recently uncovered remains. It makes me wonder is scientists actually watched these movies and listen when Jeff Goldblum’s Ethan Malcolm questions that just because they could doesn’t mean they should have. Recently, Universal Pictures released the 5 minute long prologue of the next chapter of Jurassic Park: Dominion. We have seen in a few of the movies that the dinosaurs are escaping the island either by human hands or them escaping their island enclosures. In the last installment we actually see them set loose and run into the American woods. This recent cut shows that maybe the dinosaurs being fully involved in our world has finally happened and humans are back on the dinosaur buffet and we aren’t the dominant species anymore. No matter what, we will be constantly engrossed by these creatures even though they haven’t existed for millions of years.
