Dinosaurs! Who doesn’t love dinosaurs? There’s just something inherently cool about the idea of an ancient, mysterious kingdom of animals preceding us on Earth before being obliterated in a geological instant, leaving only bones behind for scientists to piece together. Dinosaurs have long been a source of awe in children and adults alike, so it’s no wonder that the titanic lizards (Or maybe titanic birds? Have we sorted all that out yet?) have worked their way into a fair few sources of fiction over the years, with the most enduring and popular example being the dino action of Jurassic Park. This 1993 science fiction thriller of nature’s power and human folly directed by the legendary Stephen Spielberg and based on the book of the same name by Michael Crichton is quite simply a sublime experience, a perfect polygamous marriage of concept, creators, actors, effects, and execution that stands as an unbreakable tribute to the magic of movies. Jurassic Park just has it all: it’s thrilling, thought-provoking and endlessly watchable, and today Elliot is going to prove once and for all to his contrarian brother that JP is a masterpiece for the ages. My dear listening public, welcome . . . to Magellans at the Movies!
