Opening weekend for this movie was insane. I was working as a movie checker and was sent to a drive-in theater to check the film playing opposite TLW:JP. Both screens sold out, but no one was watching the other movie. They all turned their cars around and watched across the fence separating the two screens/lots. This meant that the film no one was watching got inflated numbers thanks to The Lost World: and TLW actually had more people coming to see it than could be reported (since they had to buy tickets for the other movie to get access to TLW). This happened for every show for the two weekends I was there.

Actually, as revealed in auctioned storyboards by Phil Tippett, an unfilmed sequence showed that only the Buck Rex killed the InGen crew onboard the Venture after it angrily woke up from
its tranquilized slumber and accidentally getting stabbed by one of the two bull-dozers fitted with crane arms that tried to keep it down.
(Plus, concept art of the Venture after
it crashed into the InGen Waterfront Complex showed a big gaping hole in the wheelhouse, hinting that the Buck Rex burst through and killed the crew inside).
The whole Compy bit was hilarious. Great analysis and research. I saw this film opening weekend and the first film during the midnight showing (a perk of having really young parents). Like a lot of kids in the 90's, I was a huge fan of dinosaurs, with the JP franchise held in close regard (at least the first two films). I too had the T-Rex with the swallowing feature, and a bunch of other toys from 1 & 2, but the tail action Stego was my favorite.
I never minded the third act as a kid, but I can see how it felt tacked on and contrived, as an adult. Much like the Xeno egg getting on the escape pod in Alien 3, I could never wrap my head around how the crew of the Venture died, but having long since had it revealed, I guess it makes sense... Anyway, I'm glad Spielberg directed this, because it still has that JP feeling to it, which all the subsequent films lack. I couldn't bring myself to watch the third Jurassic World film, after not finishing the second one. Some things should just go extinct.
My favorite film in the series!!
I’m glad I caught this! You stumbled upon your first JP vid in my recommended and I loved it. It inspired me to give both novels a re read. I’m glad I get to wind down for the evening with this
Perfect timing really. Hope you enjoyed!

I agree 100% that this should've been kept in the final cut. Even David Koepp - the film's script writer and cameo actor - was heartbroken that this scene was removed from the film.
I still hold out hope that one day we may get a Lost World extended cut. Would be rad.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You did a retrospective review of the film I hoped you would review. Thank you.
There's no way I wasn't gonna talk about this one. So much to cover! I'll do the others in time too.
Great video! Only I don't think Ian saw something before the Rexes returned to the trailer. I think that line from Sarah about dinosaurs and parental behaviour made him think what HE as a parent would do if someone had taken his child. And that would be to return to the kidnappers and **** them up. I think that realisation made him fear the worst and predict the Rexes would return for revenge.
I like that. Always thought he was looking at them putting junior in a tree or something and charging them. I think there was some trailer or media back in the day that had the Rexes roaring when he looked up. Always stuck with me.
I still can't believe there are so many fans who hate this movie. It is my favorite of the series. By the way, there is something that I have always wondered and it seems that no one has. Why does Site B exist if in the first movie we not only see the raptor being born, but also the embryos!?
The simplest answer; Site B didn't exist until Chrichton came back to write the sequel. Most people, Spielberg included, assumed that any sequel would deal with the shaving can with the embryos. Then Chrichton created site B in keeping with Hammond's darker character in the book and they went with it. Film wise, it could be suggested that the raptor and embryos on Nublar were all part of the 'showroom' or smokescreen effect for the tourists. Just put there to be displayed and add to the wonder and feel of the original park. Technically, when they made the first film, it was all Nublar. Site B's existence causes some retroactive rewrites but I think it works.
I used to think this was a bad follow up. Then I saw the Jurassic World sequels
I always hated the fact that Nick took Roland's bullets. Partly because Roland is a great character but also because it was such an arse thing to do. It could have saved many lives if Nick hadn't done that.
Roland captured the baby Rex. If he hadn't done that, many lives would have been saved. If you choose to go on an Island filled with man-eating dinosaurs, then by laws of survival of the fittest, you deserve to die.
Nature doesn't care about the stupidity of humans.
at you did a better review of the lost world jurassic park than the nostalgia critic
Eddie's death is still the single most impressive (in a bad way) kill in the entire franchise. He went out like a hero but his cries of fear are, surprisingly, very hard to listen to and really affect me every time, and I'm fine with outrageous gore and violence in films. I think TLW is the only good, genuinely good and progressive, sequel to the first film, though it still doesn't approach the precision and effectiveness of the first one's script and execution.
Decent sequel.
Loved watching this! I have a recollection that Spielberg saying that he regarded these two movies as part A and B of the same story, meant to be watched in the same sitting, a bit like his friend George Lucas's episode 4, 5 and 6 of Star Wars. I have to say that I like that view. If you're looking for ideas, there's at least an hour of reject Jurassic Park movie ideas since 1997 and 2015. A lot of almost was and could've beens. Might make for an interesting top-off.
Think this may form the first video of a 'Lost Screenplays' section of videos I'm gonna do looking at unproduced screenplays that never made it. Definitely a lot of material.
@scmower That'd be great! JP has everything from 'Lizard men with guns for an arm' to completed scripts that were thrown out six weeks before shooting whilst they made it up as they went in it's history. Star Wars shooting history was so stressful George Lucas had a nervous breakdown. All the 'almost was' and 'were meant to be's'...I love those!
Great vídeo!
Thank you very much!
Comment for the algorithm
Personally the lost world book version is far better
Couldn't disagree more
