  • I saw the Siskel and Ebert review and I agree with their point that there was a lack of awe in the movie that E.T. and close encounters of the third kind had.

    This movie had dinosaurs being dangerous at almost all times. Only a moment after they awed a stampede was heading for them. The danger felt convoluted. Tacked in. And it would have been a good time to question the old man about park safety.

    The old man never get punished for his reckless behavior. I don’t get why my downvoters would disagree with me. Would you downvoters really have acted so calmly against the old man when the park goes haywire?



  • Jurassic park

    First movie I saw in theaters that disappointed me. Too much dinosaurs running around trying to kill everyone without standing still and asking why this is happening.
    A quick jab towards the old man that the park is not considered ready for opening yet is not enough, or that he’s packaging stuff?
    The Goldblum character’s logic failed to intrigue me. He would have been much better to ask the old man questions about park safety and genetic engineering safety that could be scrutinized instead of full on attacking him about commercialization.
    It made the kids more interesting than the adults.
    I forgot what the relationships between the two main characters and the children were, but I believe they were divorced and the kids were theirs?
    At the very least they should have had some character development. Have them both end up with new partners or something and show what makes the new pairs better than the old one.





  • My highest IQ I scored was 135, the lowest 115.
    Do I get to part of it?
    The IQ tests themselves are not great tools of measuring intelligence but it’s the best we’ve got. And I’m glad people here realize that.

    Well…I currently feel like I’m the dumbest one among friends. I’ve got ADD, so I lose concentration a lot and my friends don’t seem to have that, while they have high IQ as well.

    It’s also good to see that you know that IQ is speed of measuring thoughts, because I don’t think the current physicists have got it correct at all and fail even on a basic level of natural philosophy/science, but they certainly can whip up complex equations faster than either of us can.
