WATCH ALONG: Jurassic Park

I was a little kid when that movie came out, and whenever the commercial for it came on, I had to leave the room or hide behind the couch and cover my ears. I was not a fan of ventriloquist dummies (or mannequins).

Would love Ashleigh to discover the one and only Ann-Margret and have her join the pantheon of Great Redheads! Also I can remember the trailer for that movie popping up on late night TV and scaring the hell outta me when I was a kid...google it and you'll see it's really creepy

Ashleigh! I don’t know how I forgot to mention this. I’m currently watching the movie Magic 1978. It is directed by Richard Attenborough who plays John Hammond. It stars Anthony Hopkins. If you want to see something freaky... THIS IS IT.

Gio Vidrio

I love how the closed caption when the raptors eat the cow is "Mooing in fear"

Awesome reaction Ash. So much fun watching together when you REALLY like a movie!

This brings me back so many memories. Saw this in theaters and was sooo excited when I had my Jurassic Park lunch box :) along w fake Jean Claude Van Damme notes but that’s another story lol

Can you plz check out these classics? Animal House, Wayne's World, and Rocky (the original one).

Keith Boyd

I know this is off topic but I’d like to see her watch the new star is born ,

Jeffrey Odom

She said it near the beginning, but then she doubted herself. I can't blame her for that. She's so new to some of these actors that we've seen a thousand times. I mean I know she did pulp fiction, but yeah. I was proud of her for saying it pretty early on.

Sorry but the 2nd film is much better than any of the other sequels and much more true to the source material rather than movie monsters. Just me.

Ohhhh I was hoping you would have saved this for June 11 for the anniversary of the film but alas, can't be too picky. This was the very last film I was waiting for you to review (empire strikes back and raiders were the other two). It got me to become a patron. I'll have a much better comment on the youtube. lol -- Scott B

As a fan of the books before the movie, the reason why the second movie is so bad, is because they had to change so much of the plot of the second book. Since Hammond was an asshole in the first book and was killed by his own dinosaurs, the whole idea of the second book was them searching for the lost island which gave the second book it's plot and excitement. But in the second movie Hammond was still alive and he told them where the island was so they had to figure out so much more plot to even try to make it exciting. So they should never have tried to make the sequel off of the second book, which they tried and failed. I however liked the third one more because they used a lot of action sequences that they couldn't include in the first movie due to length and special effects limitations. As you can tell, I was a bit obsessed with the JP books and movies as a teenager. I even started college as a biology major wanting to become a paleontologist because of my obsession with dinosaurs.

I'm so glad you saw it, the special effects still blow me away lol

Great reaction Ashleigh! Your reactions to any movies with suspense are my favorites. I wish Hallobeans was here already! Summer lovers come for me it you must!😎😎😜

Mark Sylvester

I do the same! Besides watching her editing work, I also do it to add to the viewer count. :)

I think number three is worth watching, but number two is piss poor. And none of the recent ones did much for me either.

Opti_Frog

They filmed this movie in Hawaii and you can visit the areas around the state where they shot it. Such a beautiful location!

cybermash

Fun and iconic movie. There are several sequels, some good, some bad. Number three you can skip, The others are still entertaining.

This is kinda becoming Star Wars-esque in how the movies are coming out. There’s the original trilogy (Jurassic Park 1-3) and there’s a second trilogy set about 20 years later Jurassic World of which parts 1&2 are out and the third part due next year (fingers crossed). So you have a bit of catching up to do. I was lucky enough to have seen the original in theaters when it first came out, I think I was 15 at the time, and while some of the effects now are kinda iffy, for 1993, they were absolutely mind blowing and between that and the score in theatre surround sound, it was one helluva experience!

Ken “Chaos” McKee

What!? I've seen this movie over 10x and never caught that. Oh well, gotta watch it again!!

Melissa

That was a lot of fun watching with you

Bleedingreen

The fact you weren’t able to tell that was Samuel L Jackson throughout most of the movie. 😭

Gio Vidrio

"No flocking way!" You crack me up!

Jill Peterson

After watch along I always watch the early access right after. I don't want to miss Editing Ashleigh's brilliant work!!

Mark Sylvester

Looking forward to watch along on this one. Very Excited!

Mark Sylvester

Did you see the hand steadying the raptor's tail in the kitchen? It's something you can't unsee. But such a great movie and even better book by Michael Crichton.

Thomas Ivie

Not one I would have thought to pick, but have to say I'm kinda hyped for this one.
