Which of these Jurassic Park quotes is your favorite?

The film grossed more money on its opening weekend than any other film.

It passed the 100 million dollar mark in just nine days!

The detail and real-life-looking dinosaurs contributed to the movie’s success.

Some parts of the movie weren’t so realistic, like the lab the scientists worked in.

Spielberg’s representatives came to check out a leading research lab, looked around, and said, “Steven isn’t going to like this.”

He didn’t, so instead, he created an entire lab from his imagination.

Thanks to Michael Crichton’s and Steven Spielberg’s imaginations, we got to see some wild stuff on the screen!

If you are wondering why the film still looks so good when we watch it today, it’s because they used little CGI techniques.

Therefore, the technology doesn’t age out like many other 90s films.
