Hey guys! In this video we go over one of my favorite parts from the original novel! In Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park we get a pretty awesome scene where Ian Malcolm proves how Jurassic Park would fail. It has a lot to do with the over reliance of the park staff on automation and computers and even features most of the park's employee's like Muldoon, Wu and Arnold. Nedry is even present! The Jurassic Park novels dive deep into the Chaos Theories of Dr. Malcolm and this chapter shows that specifically in a great deal! Hope you all enjoy! :D
Hammond: "It was only a SMALL INCREASE."
The 29 newly added Velociraptors peering through the wall: "ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?!"
When one of the deadlier creatures in your Park nearly graudruples in number, that's not a small increase, it's a big problem. More so when you don't know it was happening.
XD
"The most dangerous Population in the park more than QUADRUPLED, DIPSH*T. That's no increase, that's a DISASTER'
My reaction when reading that part.
Even reading the novel, watching the number of raptors go from 8 to 37 gave me chills.
It was a seriously scary realization haha
Mercenary Mulluns just finished the river raft part
that and when they realised the raptors were waiting for the boats
I was shocked
Mercenary Mulluns Agreed. I read both books in about 6 days, that's how much I loved 'em.
“Hey, now you’re supposed to have dinosaurs on your dinosaur tour? Hello? Alright, hello? *makes growling noise* yes?”
“...I really hate that man.”
He didnt make a growling noise, he made a exhaling sound to fog the camera... Lol
Lol
And then right after that camera scene Ian just sits back and is like "THAT showed him", lol.
Now we know why. He was right!
I loved the scene because the mistake was so simple, they had programmed the computer to look for the number of animals they expected and it always did. They never expected for themselves to make a mistake so they never checked for more dinosaurs. The computer was designed that way so they never learned of their mistake. It was a mistake of their hubris not the computer per say. One of the most memorable moments in the book.
Well put! 👍
it's like the 3.6 roentgen scene from Chernobyl. they were so preoccupied by data they wanted to see rather than what was true.
That would make a perfect scene in the movie.
It showed the irony of the whole thing.
And Spielberg and Koepp decided to completely take it out of the film.
This part in the book was scary. Seeing the numbers climb and the panic within the hierarchy. This was amazing.
Bryce Mckenzie
It is freaky how number of the Dinosaurs jumped up out of nowhere, and hearing on audio book is just mind blowing. How flaw the jurassic park system was.
Of the scenes Klayton covers I forgot most of them from not having read it in over 10 years, but *this one I remember.*
And then you see exactly what species are more numerous. I probably would be like "Oh, my fucking shit!" when I find out that there's over four times more raptors out there than intended and I don't know where they are....
How about the scene when they realize that the raptors have escaped because the electric fences have been offline for over 5 hours? That was a scene I would've like to see on the big screen.
+GamingTV unfortunately you have to cut a large amount of details when making movies, because movies are a lot shorter. Think about it, books sometimes take many pages to show one point. A movie can't do that or it'd be boring. As someone's who has experience writing both books and screenplays I understand that for a movie you cant be as detailed and still really be enjoyable. This scene could have been in it, but I think it would have taken away somewhat from the mystery that is Jurassic Park in the movie. Grant's explanation scene seemed to fit the movie adaptation better than this scene would have I think. Especially since this apparently happened before Nedry did his thing in the book.
God bless you.
There is a hint earlier in the book with the compys. Before the tour, one of workers, I think it was Arnold, pulls up a graph of the compys' height. Malcolm looks it over and says something like "I've seen all that I've need to see. " then leaves. Later in the book, Arnold brings the chart up again saying that it has a normal "Gaussian" distribution. Malcolm says that its not to supposed that type of distribution since the compys were introduced in three batches and should have three distinct height differences because of their birth order. The chart that the park workers brought up was actually what would be expected of a population of wild animals, not of a group of population controlled animals. The proof of the animals being capable of breeding was in front of them the whole time.
I was wondering why Klayton didn't bring that up, too.
@Xbalanque84 it was probably just a minor oversight. It's a very small part in the book so it's pretty easy to miss.
slight correction: its a poisson distribution that pops up not gaussian distribution
@@ragingjaguarknight86that is the point. Even the big brains at JP missed that
@@SirCalculator Wait shouldn't it have been a Maxwell-Boltzmann Distribution, since it was for a natural variable ?
That could have been a seriously dark and suspenseful scene. Would have worked great in the movie!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
You should have seen the un-cut version of the film before it was it release. I won tickets to see it as a test group. It was at least 30 minutes longer.
Robin Porter what else was in there that was cut?
Max Amillion he’s lying
It would be great for an R rated Reboot if one was ever made. And when it's all over, Hammond could still say "I really hate that man."
I was thinking just have them talk and just show the raptors hiding throughout the park or how they hid so well. Also of them eating(population control) and finally show them using teamwork on how to jump fences and keeping the originals in closed to not arise suspicion. Daughters and sons leaving mothers in jail.
This scene is so amazing. Malcolm looks amazing in this one too.
BTW, Raptor's number risen from 8 to 37 is a terrifying thought...
whats terrifying is that the populations of the other species didn't go down. The island's population is sustainable.
corvetteguy91 they did go down
* ratpors breeding *
Muldoon: * heavy breathing*
I kinda freaked out a little when I saw the 8 raptors going to 37. I was like "Duuuuuuuuuuuuude"
This was such an amazing moment in the book for me. Clear concrete proof that Malcolm and Co's fears had been correct. What makes the scene so powerful to me is that Hammond continues to deny the obvious and believe that control was still maintained in the park.
I would really enjoy the exploration of the raptor den near the end of the novel. JP3 did a pretty good job of touching upon the social behavior of the raptors, but this was such and unexpected and welcome surprise to read about in the first novel.
Lol jp3 is fucking garbage. Shit. Poo. Caca. Embarrassing.
37 raptors? Nublar couldn't have been napalmed soon enough
The scenes with Ellie distracting the raptors at the lodge whilst Grant goes to the power shed have always been up there as one of my favourites.
Also the descriptions of the raptor nest towards the end showcases some of the best of Crichton's writing in my opinion.
Mark Davies why didn't those raptors attack grant when he was in the nest?
@@prathapkutty7407 they didn't know he was there
It's also assumed since those raptors are wild-borne, they never got used to/acquired a taste for human meat.
My favorite part regarding how the park's assumptions start tumbling down actually comes a bit later- when Grant points out raptors are nocturnal, and asks if anyone had been watching the park at night. Then there's just this dead silence, and not even Hammond can bluster his way through that awkward pause. But even in this part- you really see Hammond's façade crack. When faced with failure he automatically and always yells someone else, shifts blame. It's never, ever his fault. That attitude is at the core of the Isla Nublar disaster in the novels. And, as for which part I'd like to see... why not go over the Dilophosaur mating dance (my favorite novel scene yet to be adapted)? Especially since the Dilophosaurs didn't have frog DNA and it was a bit of a mystery why there'd be male and female animals and all. Another great bit I always liked was how many times people *just* missed finding Nedry (first immediately after the deed was done, when Harding and Ellie are following compys and get called back to base, then later when Muldoon's working on the fences and one of the workers mentions he sees car lights and Muldoon dismisses it), meaning it was hours before Muldoon could get the rocket launcher- heck, Nedry even only snuck out because Muldoon looked away from the window for a moment (a detail I have always loved). Chaos theory at work. Or heck, the aviary. Or even the bit at the end of the first novel, with the raptors wanting to migrate- contrasting that orderly behavior with the unruly behavior in The Lost World (especially when it comes to nesting and childrearing- one of several inconsistencies between books, such as whether or not Apatosaurus lifted its neck) could make for an interesting video. There's too many good parts of the novels to make videos on.
I too loved this part of the book! It was such a big "oh shoot!" moment for 10 year old me! I might not have had a grasp on DNA replacement therapy or cloning, but I knew what 29 more raptors meant!
One of my favorite parts in the book!
Its great! :D
Mine too . I’ve read it 8 times and second novel 6 times
Same this part was so amazing
Same, allso im a bug fan
My favorite part of the book too, probably. The first time I read it, I felt goosebumps. This narration from Klayton doesn't make it justice (thanks anyway, man), I just wish they added it to the movie. At that moment, the entire idea of security and safety in the park got demolished.
The actual issue begins when Timmy sees a few Velociraptor running through the herd of Stegosaurs. Followed by the Raptors congregating at the South Dock. The eventual revelation that Raptors and Compys escaped the Island. By the way the overlooked scene is the Monkey in Costa Rica with a dead Compy in its mouth.
I also think the Park Workers last stand against the Raptors would be an Amazing scene. You could see how Different Henry Wu was in the book.
I wonder what the name of the song in 1:54 is called
Dr. Wu: “do you know what this means?”
John Hammond: “of course I do! It means you screwed up!”
Me: “No, it means life has indeed found a way...”
1:55
XD
That part of the novel is my favorite. It sucks that It didn't made it on to the movie. I would love to see that scene in the film. When I first read that part of the novel I was like 'Holy crap, There are lots of raptors. How The heck they didn't see one? or getting out of their enclosure? HOW'
is anyone watching the park at night?
silence
i thought so. raptors are nocturnal.
"Where are they coming from?" Well when a mommy dino and a daddy dino love each other very much.....
And this deferentially should have been in the movie.
As a comedy, its perfect
Agreed!
They just couldn’t control their feelings
When I read the book after the movie came out I was really disappointed that they left this whole scene out. It was amazing. There was a sort of impending doom that the scene created that would had worked so well in the film.
One of the best scenes he ever wrote.
A perfect example of Chaos Theory.
Would of LOVED to see that scene on the silver screen.
By "Life finds a way" scene was wonderfully done and is now part of our grammer.
This scene perfectly shows not only the Chaos Theory, but life finding a way!
equarg Jurassic park is screening on Wednesday I can't wait to see it on the silver screen!
Even knowing that I was at my room, I thought one of the 37 raptors would attack me. Belive me the increase from 8 to 37 raptors part now also gives me chills
I love Michael Crichton! My favourite author!
I have a special Michael Crichton shelf :D Some books double haha
He has a very unique ability to put pictures in your mind without describing images. It's because the guy knows a lot about movies, I am sure of it.
But too often he comes as overly pretentious. I noticed specially since I started getting older. And in some of his last works it backfires. State of fear was politic propaganda.
Discovering your channel gave me the urge to read the novels for the first time. I started Jurassic Park a couple weeks ago and just read this chapter the other night. I'm amazed how good the novel really is. Can't believe it took me this long to actually want to read it
Such a cool and creepy scene in the book. It seems to get forgotten compared to say the river raft scene, the T Rex breakout scene, the raptors in the kitchen scene and the Compies killing the baby scene(and them attacking the little girl, seen in The Lost World movie).
This whole scene is actually a great setup for machine learning that honestly would've been fantastic for Jurassic World. Machine learning (correctly) posits that, among many things, programming can and does learn not based on what is correct but rather what the biases of its programmers want it to do. In this case the computers are perfectly capable of finding out how many dinosaurs are on the island but they weren't programmed for that - they were programmed to keep track of the known dinosaur population. Jurassic World really missed a great opportunity with that. In fact without even changing the script much this would be a fantastic way to introduce the gradually exposed secret traits of the Indominus Rex. Rather than its composition just being hush hush to a degree that breaks suspension of disbelief and Wu just going "oh yeah we put that in there and there was no reason not to tell you unless I'm actually a double agent for the military oops" the machines failing to takes these factors into account, factors that Wu could then just brush off as a coincidence like they were in JP1 without transparently being a double agent.
i finally got to reading the first book and said "holy shit" out loud when the computer counted 37 raptors.
The power of the printed word. 🙂
Klayton, this is your best video yet. There is still so many good moment in the books and I love how you start covering them one by one and not always in chronological order, I need to re-read them, soon!
Hey thanks man! :D
Aw! One of my favorite Malcolm moments!
Crichton's writing is tremendous. Very solid thinking man's books on how deeply flawed humans are.
I have waited 65 million years for this video :D Nice to be reminded of some classic scenes.
I recently finished Re Reading Jurassic Park a Novel and it's Great this scene alone just gives you chills could you imagine thinking you had 8 raptors but really had 38? Also could you do either the T. rex river breakout, the Cearadactylus Aviary, or the Waterfall scene please?
I haven't read the novels. But where were those extra raptors? Inside the raptor enclosure? Before Nedry cut the power, how could have they escaped?
well this is the book,and not the movies,so its possible that they didn't even a temp to leave cause maybe they were still breading?and the eggs started to hatch,maybe quicker to any dna and possibly cause the actually mother was there.
@@GumaroRVillamil you have to read it!!
The T Rex scene gave me chills because it is pitch black and you cant see the dinosaur, just when the lightning hits
Honestly this scene gave me chills. Like imagine going from 8, solidly easily to contain animals that are deadly, to *37 Deadly animals that you NEED to contain*
That music with the number was creepy. It actually fits your voice explaining the scene very well. I can bearly remember this part in the book. But I will always remember the start when they bring the injured worker in saying he hurt himself on a construction site despite him repeating "raptor". That I'd love to see in the movie
DYING to see the scene in The Lost World where Malcolm and the kids discover Site B in Levine's apartment. My absolute favorite scene of the 2nd novel that didn't make it to screen. The whole hunt for Levine brings an element of mystery and intrigue into the franchise that was sorely missing from the second film.
As a 12 year old this part was the first real ''Oh shit.'' moment for me. Moments for you to talk about in your channel: Donald Gennaro vs Velociraptor Antirrhopus, Muldoon's Rocket Launcher shootout and from The Lost World Sarah Harding and Lewis Dodgson under the car.
Chaotician Núñez dick move on Sarah's part.
13 y/o and just got the book
I'm about 30 pages in and it's already filled with "Oh shit" moments
It is truly an amazing book
I always thought the fight for the lights (power) would be a winning fight in the book. they seemed to have a better chance at bring everything back. but with escaped raptors and them breeding like rabbits....*shutters*
I think my favorite part of ian is that he knows are bad from the beginning. Like when he points out the population chart isn't right. He's just letting everyone catch up untill they get some undeniable proof
Paul Corona -- I love Crichton brings the Bell Curve graph back into this scene. When Malcolm is questioned about how he knew what to ask for, Malcolm is like "We saw it earlier with the graph. A Bell Curve is typically used for population growth". AH! Such a brilliant call back. I remember thinking, "Holy crap, Malcolm is literally 5 steps ahead of everyone else right now".
We are thinking the same thought. Right on Paul!
My very favourite part was the part in which Tim was grabbed by the T-rex's tongue and being pulled out, then at one point was described as calming down by his inevitable demise, even though he survived. Then when the animal was sedated he forgave the animal. Is it even possible to portray some emotional moment like this between a human protagonist and a predator, perhaps even the main villainous killer, in which the human shows the awareness that the animal is in fact not at fault?
Could be. But really it depends on how its handled :/
Although it’s often been dismissed as a blatant ripoff of Jaws, the 1977 movie Orca: The Killer Whale, actually has that exact situation as a huge part of its plot. While I don’t want to spoil too much of the movie’s premise here, it really is both refreshing and unique to see an animal-on-the-rampage movie where the human targets have the wisdom, grace, and maturity to admit that THEY are the ones who are in the wrong, and the animal who’s terrorizing them really isn’t to blame.
Hell, at one point, the film’s main human character, Captain Nolan, whose greed and foolishness was responsible for the whole disaster in the first place, inquires “Is it possible to commit a sin against an animal?”
I know how both Tim and I would respond to that.
Great live stream yesterday! Hope we see a video on the 25th celebration.
Bryce Mckenzie im going to see Jurassic park at the movies on Wednesday for the 25th anniversary! Can't wait!
Ian Malcolm was the third hit on a three-hit intellectual badass combo strike in which Ellie Sattler figured out the cause of the sick stegosaurus, Grant found and identified a fragment of raptor egg in that same location, and then Malcolm exposed the flaw of the sensor system. And that part was such a nothing scene in the movie, too...
- Lewis
It's definetly one of the best parts of the book. The chart is so simple yet so brillantly chilling to read, once you get to the giant increase in raptors. Some of Crichton's best writing on display here.
Your videos and knowledge of Jurassic Park is the only reason why I bought the books. I love your knowledge and passion for this series!
One of my favourite scenes in the book and how right Malcom was to be followed by how Grant than points the lack of seriousness the humans showed with no one watching the video monitors closely at night the time when raptors were active and how their rodent problem went away strangely
who knew that number 37 can be this scary
I'd love a video on BioSyn
Monster Man Alex honestly bioSyn gets no love in the film franchise. When Jurassic World came out I thought there was going to be a cameo with them. When that didn’t happen I was expecting it to take place in Jurassic World phone kingdom seeing as Dr. Wu is working for some shady business but then we find out that it was actually John Hammon’s original business partner. it would be really cool to at least get a continuation story of that company and the new movies possibly even Jurassic World three/jurassic Park six.
The shadow I love every aspect of this reply. I agree 100%.
BioSyn will find a way
Dodgson? Dodgson? Nobody cares.
@@theshadow8188 biosyn is actually mentioned in the return of jurrassic park dlc for jurrassic world evolution
as a software engineer this is so relatable. You set out to guard a certain requirement, forgetting that not guarding a opposite requirement can be equally bad.
It's incredible that you start out with Malcolm's quote about how Science's claim is an "Idle Boast." I was actually thinking of the line throughout today, because it's one of the things I'm most divided on from the novel. I was curious if you shared my dilemma; whether or not you agreed or disagreed with Malcolm's claim. But that's a topic for another time...
What IS important, is that THIS is the moment of all of Jurassic Park Medium that lends credence to my Theory that Blue may in fact NOT be alone on Nublar; that it might be possible that a thriving population of Raptors could still be out there. Especially since, we don't know what kind of "clean-up" measures were taken when Masrani Global took control of the island to make Jurassic World. How could they have been thorough without destroying the environment of the island - like what happened in the Novel? Are they certain they got EVERY Compy? Those things are small, and they scurry between the paddocks with virtually nothing to keep them contained.
I think the movie alludes to this by having the scene where Grant and the kids find the Dinosaur Eggs; the tracks allude to the infants being Raptors. And not only that. but even as newborns, they seem to have an instinctual awareness to get out of the open and move away from the nest. But then again, we don't know how long those eggs have been there; it could've been weeks, as the nest is clearly abandoned. But then again, there's no tracks from the mother as well, so perhaps the Mother also abandoned the nest, in order to avoid being seen.
My theory is, the raptors in the novel were able to "escape" their paddock in a way; when they started breeding, their offspring were small enough to slip through the fencing of the pen. The next generation would then go on, having the most basest instincts for survival in the wild, out on their own. Fortunately without much in terms of natural predators, and an ample invasive Rat Population as a food source, the infants survived, to become the new generation of breeding Raptors.
In the movies, this would clearly be more difficult for the infants to escape without the adult's help, but maybe the animals were able to subtly slip out through other means instead of through the fence.
Like from the book itself, the baby Raptors are surprisingly sneaking and can go unnoticed if they choose; like when they snuck onto the boat. Perhaps before the Big One showed up and started attacking the feeders, the Babies were able to slip out of the pens through the opening while the adults were being fed.
Or much like in the Raptor Comics, perhaps the babies were able to dig their way out from underneath the enclosure; probably because they're so small, it would be easier for them to accomplish it than the adults...
But like I said; I truly do believe that on Nublar, its fully possible that a breeding population of Raptors MAY in fact still exist. The franchise has already supported evidence that a breeding population could exist completely undetected by those monitoring the park. The Raptors are being sensible enough to not go out in the open where they can be seen; especially consider that they're mostly nocturnal, and they are apprehensive about attacking large groups. They most likely would stay far away from the main area of the park - much like alluded to in the scene where Grant kills the three raptors in the nursery.
This!! I wish you had the full audiobooks! You do a great job and love the effects you add
This part of the book got me right the first time i read it. Still remember this part up to today. A good reminder, that reality and expectation are not the same and never should be seen as the same.
These short summaries of some of the coolest moments in both books are amazing and you give a chilling delivery. I'd love to see a possible full reading on either Jurassic park or the lost world. Keep up these amazing videos man!
I always thought it would be cool if they'd had the swimming t rex scene from the book in the film. What I love about the franchise is that they've made the dinosaurs feel more alive by having all these different behaviours on screen and in the novels and it would be cool to see rexy in a different light in the movies.
Nice singing Carlo . Always enjoy y'all's videos ❤
I recently listened to the audiobook for the first time and that number change from 8 to 37 raptors was a very scary and shocking moment. Having only watched the films this was a whole different kind of horror.
Its incredibly how much tension you can build by numbers comming up on a computer screen, and people reacting to it.
I admit, i have never read the books, only seen the films. But thanks to all the excelent pieces you have shown here, i am reconsidering...
I forgot how great and genuinely suspenseful this scene is in the novel with the dinosaur population numbers increasing.
this scene left me bewildered like 29 loose raptors were roaming around the island and no one was in the slightest was worried about that
Man, this is so amazingly well written that it always gives me chills. I, like many of us in this channel did, watched the movie before reading the book, so I pretty much knew that the whole breeding thing would pop up at some point. However, even knowing it doesn't prepare you for the tension and shock present in this chapter of the book. The first time I read it I felt as if I was in that room with the other characters, and, like them, realizing just how screwed everyone on the island actually was. Very well done, Mr. Crichton.
I loved that scene as well. I thought it was extremely well written, intelligent and suspenseful as well as revealing, or as you put it, sobering.
I’m so glad I found your RUclips channel. Thanks to you I actually bought both books and I’ve finished the first book and I’m almost halfway into the second novel. Much love my dude keep working hard!!!
In my opinion this set was a brilliant move by Crichton to ump up the conflict in his story even more. I've read the books after I've seen the movies and I had never anticipated this plot event. Needless to say, I was beyond nicely surprised how deep this story went.
When I read the book this part was one of my favorite parts just because it feels like I was there looking at the numbers just going up and up
Just finished listening the the audiobook today. That was my second time reading the book. Such a chilling scene. Really shows the intelligence of Ian Malcolm.
I'm not a huge book reader but I just read Jurassic Park over the course of a few days, it is always something I've wanted to do as Dinosaurs and Jurassic Park have been such a huge interest of mine my entire life. I cannot believe the intensity and anxiety that came over me during certain parts of the book, especially the scene that you are describing in the video. When Malcolm is deconstructing their methods to track dinosaurs and exposing their flaws I wasn't even aware that a book could make me feel something like that it was fantastic.
Hey Klayton, amazing video, beautiful editing, keep it up,
Also have you seen my most revent discussion, just asking
I watched Jurassic Park in the theater when it first came out. I have also watched it on VHS & DVD numerous times, and I never understood the part you mentioned. You learn something new everyday!!! You explain so well. Thank you so much for that, you are awesome
Hey Klayton. Big fan of the channel. I’m currently re-reading the original novels and just read this chapter the other day. I always admired this chapter’s clever twist. It could’ve easily been an over dramatic set piece but Crichton goes the other way and has Ian Malcolm “drop the mic” on the engineers. Crichton also writes both sets of characters so well. He’s convinced you as a reader that the computers are doing their job properly and that things aren’t as bad as they seem (Kind of like real life 😜). Then this chapter comes along with Dr. Grant questioning their cloning techniques and Dr. Malcolm’s critique of their security measures and shakes the foundations of Ingen for the rest of the story.
This video makes the part so much more chilling. Great Work!
This is my *favorite* part in the book, and the entirety of the Jurassic Park franchise. I pick up the book just to read this section over and over.
I'd love to see that part in the book where the nurse found in the hospital a Compy biting a baby , when she open the door and only sees the eyes in the darkness. That part scared me the hell.
I read this book and this scene grabbed my attention very much. This scene was my favorite scene in the book. Right next to Ian Malcom seeing Raptors above his head as they attempt to get in.
This was one of my favorite scenes in the book. The suspense if it...just wonderful!! Another one of my favorites was the scene when they realize they are running on Aux power and not main power.
I have been watching these kinds of videos you have made and, I must say, I enjoy how you incorporate the images of the characters in the movies to their respective dialogue in the novels.
From the book I love the bit with the baby raptor in the hatchery with the toys,etc. This has clearly been lifted from the source material for Fallen Kingdom with the scene for Owen and Baby Blue.
great vid
That scene is suspenseful and give me the chills that the animals are breeding.
I loved this chapter, will always be one of my favourites
I read the original book shortly after the movie came out, and it's one of the very few books I've read in my life. I don't remember much about it but I know I couldn't put it down though. I do remember the scene, and now I'm probably going to pick it back up again thanks to you reading this excerpt from it. I'm a huge Marvel and Star Wars fan but I'm more psyched about this movie than anything else this summer.
When I first read the JP novel as a kid, there were certain chapters or sections I would keep coming back to to reread more or less in isolation, a personal "best of" reel, if you will. Most of said scenes involved GAR deaths or scenes involving open conflict with dinosaurs. This one though, with its charts and graphs, always stood out. While short on action, it gave you reason to crap your pants and scramble for the nearest shelter.
I'm also kinda disappointed you didn't show the charts of the projected raptor population growth. I barely understood such charts as a kid, but their implications still chilled me to the bone.
thanks to you, i decided to reread the original novel (i read it several years ago) as well as the second novel (which i have never read) before fallen kingdom comes out. even 2 years after reading it, this novel is still such a sobering read
The books/movies tell a story of humanity trying to play God, and failing horribly because man cannot control things which can't be controlled.
"God creates dinosaurs, God destroys dinosaurs, God creates man, man destroys God, man brings back dinosaurs, dinosaurs eat man"
sandromnator
You forgot Ellie's little addition to that quote.
"And women inherits the earth".
sandromnator dinosaurs eat Man, Woman inherits the Earth. Dr. Sattler
I’ll never forget reading this book for the first time. This scene had me on the edge of my seat trying to read as quickly as I could.
Man this book is great so far. I’m half way though. The audiobook is free right now on RUclips. Go and listen to it while you’re at work or something. I love it so much. Using your imagination while listening to the book is actually awesome
I can't believe they didn't include that scene in the movie. This is gold.
Great video as always. This part is definitely one of my favorites along with the chapter where Wu tries to convince Hammond to go to a new version so that the dinosaurs could be easier to manage. I have other favorite scenes, most of which you have already done videos on, but definitely the Dodgson and Harding story line in the Lost World was AWESOME!! Now that was a satisfying death! Please do a video on that. Or just one on Dodgson in the novel would be great. Most people don't know the scumbaggery that is Dodgson.
The part in the beginning with the compys eating the baby. That was some dark stuff. Seriously I l9ve your channel. Great work dude.
If JP is every adapted again, this scene has to be in the movie, they need to do a full faithful adaptation of the book, blood and all
This is really interesting. And, as a potential scene that never happened, you make it sound great. Good shit.
This was a rather interesting scene in the book but with the music and delivery of the lines and music you injected a feeling of dread and anxiety into this part of the story, Well done!
I'm currently listening to the audiobook and as I was listening to this chapter, I legit got chills down my spine
This could be a very suspenseful scene in the next jurassic movie , since most of the dinosaurs are now roaming on mainlands , imagine the governmental meetings and they're start noticing how some number of dinosaurs are increasing in certain areas when they shouldn't , and they'll start noticing that their data contain flaws , this is how you bring Malcolm theory in a full circle
Thank you for reminding me of this passage. I enjoyed reading it as a child, it was a new kind of horror Crichton's novels exposed me to - statistical horror.
You need to do a complete audiobook on the novels. I really enjoyed the narration you provided for this scene!
Klayton, please do a video on the scene when Richard Levine first arrives at Sorna to when Diego gets killed. That scene is one of my favourites because of how tense it is. The distant roars, the need to stay quiet, and the isolationist feel of the island. My favourite part is when Levine finds the friendly dinosaur near the streams and let's down his guard only to be attacked moments later by carnivores.
Very nice. I always love your narrations. My request would be the gassing of the raptor nest. :)
You need to do a full audio book in this format!
I listened to the audio book and I got to say that it was awesome to see Dr Malcolm show that control is an illusion. It also helps prove that Dr Malcolm was advanced in his understanding of what could and would happen.
It was a really good part of the book. Explaining, between the lines, how computers work and the math behind it. As well as the proof of Ians statement "Live finds a way" and the first part of the solution for the beginning of the book.
This is a memorable scene. I read the books long ago, so I've forgotten most details, but this part I remember.
