Best Jurassic Park/World Movie?

XENORAPTOR - Welcome to SCIFIED! It is always good to see new faces! I happen to believe Jurassic Park is the definitive and most exciting portion of the Jurassic franchise! This is due to the fact that the original was groundbreaking in its visual elements and was unlike any other dinosaur film before it! Once again, welcome to SCIFIED! :)

None of the sequels have or will touch the original movie. Not even close. It's a masterpiece that's able to transcend its flaws due to its vision, atmosphere and imagination. There was nothing like it beforehand and there's been nothing like it since then.

Over 20 years later it seems like blockbusters are still trying to capture the same magic the original Jurassic Park had to no avail. It will still be a hard one to top in another 20 years and I have no doubt it will continue to stand the test of time.

GMAN2887 - Well said! Hear, hear! :)

10. Jurassic Park III

3. Jurassic Park: The Lost World

2. Jurassic World

1. Jurassic Park

The original Jurassic park! Jurassic world did a great job but it will never beat the 1st one!

Xenotaris- Yeah I'd agree with that order. I think I'd bump up Jurassic Park III to an equal standing with The Lost World though.

Yeah have to agree with the sentiment that the first is far and away the best. We've talking one of the best movies of all time when looking at Jurassic Park.

The rest are fine, but they can't compare with the original.

@Xenoraptor

I liked Jurassic Park: The Lost World better than Jurassic Park III, so...yeah.

I always liked The Lost World, but Jurassic Park is a very close second.

Honestly, I think The Lost World is a superior film to Jurassic World. Jurassic World is pure, dumb fun, but The Lost World had more sincerity to its scenes and characters.

And as weak as Jurassic Park III is, it's not nearly as bad as some say.

GMAN2887 - "...Alan...". ;)

^LOVE that part. :P

GMAN2887 - Hahaha! Cinematic genius at work! ;)

I will probably get a lot of hate but Jurassic world by miles I just love the effects and I love the part where Rexy and Indominus Rex fight it is such a good movie 

Jurassic World was a heck a lot better than JP III. To me Jurassic World almost rivaled Jurassic Park original, but of course Jurassic Park one will always be the best.

I think Jurassic World merely edges out Jurassic Park III and that's only because it has more going on in its story than JPIII. Jurassic World wants to be looked at as a meta piece of filmmaking, but its mere existence sort of contradicts what its preaching.

Whereas Jurassic Park III largely has stronger acting and more interesting effects shots--Particularly the amazing practical effects. In a way Jurassic Park III can be looked at as the last of a particular brand of effects craftsmanship.

I don't think Jurassic World is bad, but its reflexive nature is contradicting and it relies far too much on nostalgia which will feel meaningless a few years from now.

I do love how the film makers know its a goofy, dumb movie and play that up though.

Jurassic Park III had stronger acting.... Hahahaha, good one, that's the funniest thing I've read.

If were talking about special effects the reason why Jurassic World relied more of CGI is because of budget restraints.

Jurassic Park III was freaking terrible, with a spinosaurus that could kill T. rex and can smash through a metal fence but couldn't break through a twelve year old wooden door.

Sam Neil, William H. Macy and Tea Leoni are classically trained actors with stage credits and numerous awards. Neil in particular has some of the most notable chops. Even the poor dialog they were given in Jurassic Park III was delivered stronger than some of the best dialog that weaker talents such as Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard were given in Jurassic World. (Which, to be fair... they weren't given a lot of decent dialog. At all.) To claim otherwise is feigning ignorance.

The reason Jurassic World relied on CG was not because of budget restraints. It was because of "reliability" and executive decisions. Producers are so dependent on CG today, that they fear the risk of practical effects not working correctly, failing on screen or not being ready in time for a shoot. It has nothing to do with budget which, in many cases, would be decreased through the use and manpower of practical effects.

Jurassic Park III is the weakest entry, no doubt. But if your main complaint is the Spinosaurus then you seem to be missing the point either way.

On the CGI thing, that's not what Colin Trevorrow said.

Also I thought the dialogue in Jurassic World was fine.

Yes my main complaint is the spinosaurus, it tried too hard to be a Tyrannosaurus replacer as in lacked personality where as the tyrannosauruses in the previous films behaved more naturally: Rexy wasn't hounding the main characters all the time and when she did appear was on mere happenstance, also she actually hunted other dinosaurs and gave up chasing humans when they weren't worth the extra distance while Buck and Doe only chased the main characters around because they smelled their infants's blood on Sarah's jacket and they took their infant.

Spinosaurus just chased the main characters around and never hunted any of the dinosaurs (Mr. Green/JPIII T. rex doesn't count since it was a duel and not a hunt) and it felt to me spinosaurus was trying to hard to replicate all the T. rex scenes.

1. Prior to the airplane crash the Spinosaurus runs across the runway to eat Cooper, then the plane's propeller hits the spinosaurus since we know that blood couldn't be Cooper's as the plane was pulling up its propellers where near its freaking ass and not near its face. That would of been a fatal wound to the spinosaurus and we know that its the same spinosaurus since when they were digging in its dung, they found cooper's sunglasses.

2. The Fight between Tyrannosaurus and Spinosaurus ruined the movie for me, since Spinosaurus has weaker jaws and cannot use its arms that way. Mr. Green (my nickname for the JPIII T. rex) delivered the first bite on the Spinosaurus and I don't care what Joe Johnston says that it was a subadult, it should of killed that Spinosaurus.

3. Spinosaurus breaking through the metal fence, it was like it was trying to make a statement that "T. rex is a wuss they could only chew through fence, me strong, me smash through fence!" only to be stopped by an 11 year old wooden door with some flimsy metal strains (Since Isla Sorna's facilities were abandoned, the door has been left unmaintained for 11 years)

It's mindblowing that one fight that could be a really fun part of the movie(and was for me) gets so many people bothered about the scientific aspects of how the fight went, or how it would really go down.

This is science fiction, who cares if t.rex would win in real life? Velociraptor is like half the size of the ones in the movie, but no one gets wrapped up how unrealistic that is, or says that ruins the movie for them.
