Jurassic Park 3D (Post-release)
- Thread starter jcoffman99
- Start date
I was there opening day as well as kid. I'll never forget the roar from the T-Rex through the speakers of the theater. As much as I'd like to share that experience with a younger generation to appreciate...I'm not sure how much they can work in the 3-D after the fact. The Star Wars re-releases just feel like milking a cash cow and I hope Universal isn't trying to do the same with all of their classics as well. The only 3-D movie that has truly justified the experience so far IMO has been Avatar which I'm glad I was in the theater for (the story in it...meh but the effects were glorious up close and first hand). Obviously that was filmed precisely with 3D in mind with 3D cameras so I really can't imagine how much postproduction they can do on a thirty year old movie to make it jump at us.
I don't need to see a literally 3D round Dennis Nedry nor Ray Arnold's hand fly through the screen as he flips the switch, lol:
Hold on to your butts - YouTube
I hope it works out and introduces a whole new generation to a great film but consider me very very guarded in any optimism.

Exactly. And this kind of strengthens that side of the argument.
Even when someone tries to make a B-movie, it doesn't always turn out to be a B-movie. Because it doesn't work like that.

not a b movie,and lets stop with the 3d nonsense it doesnt make a crappy movie better, and more expensive to see
As much as it pains me to say it, Jurassic Park has not really aged that well for me.
It mostly has to do with the whole man vs nature bit. I don't buy into the whole "We should never mess with nature!" or "Do we have the right to do this?" stuff that gets brought up time and time again. Everyone treats nature in this film like it's some godly self-aware entity that purposefully selects species to become extinct, and we should not interfere with it's process at all. Really? And as for messing with nature, we mess with nature ALL THE TIME! When someone gets a disease that is fatal unless cured, we don't do nothing and say "Nature is selecting that person to die", we grab a syringe and shout "Get me 10 ccs of cure, STAT!".
And zoos. We already have zoos. MANY ZOOS! Some even with endangered animals in them. And like many zoos, things tend to go wrong. But just because some greedy idiot decides to sabotage the entire park and set all the Dinosaur's loose, the conclusion our characters come to is "We have no right to make a zoo that has dinosaurs in it!". It's like the problem is hunger, and the solution is to drink water.
Now in 3D!

3D or no 3d... Seeing it on the big screen again overrides that mentality BIG TIME. As did SW in 3d.

I'll be there to show the kids an awesome B-movie in 3D
(ducks...)

A friend of mine worked on that trailer...then Universal presented their own to Spielberg (it's believed the studio is trying to align themselves more with Spielberg in the interests of wooing him back to Universal). I'll find out what portions are pieces of his work.
Edit..they didn't use any of his version.
