Why Does Jurassic Park III Think I'm Stupid?

[Ask For More]

Ya know, i'm surprised that no one's picked up on this, but if the Pterodactyls are locked up in a bird cage what the hell do they eat?!?!

I hate all three Jurassic Park's now, such a waste of money and ideas it's ridiculous. I dunno how many of you guys have read the orginial Jurassic Park book, but it's ten times better than the movie. I remember reading the book first and thinking the movie was going to be great; so I was completely disappointed with the steaming pile of crap that they claim was a movie. Again the second Jurassic Park, another decent book, but yet again, shite film!

The only decent book adaptation which stands out in my mind is The Shawshank Redemption. Oh, and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon...

The Godfather. The book is summer beach reading trash. The film is a work of art.

I must confess I haven't watched the movie nor have I read the book....

Good point, I never even thought of this one...

... and "Anne of Green Gables", too, but that's a different kind of movie, i know, and wasn't released to popular acclaim. Still, having devoured the book over and over as a girl, i was most pleased with what the movie-makers did with the movie. (You can see it on TV sometimes, probably rent it at the video store, too.)

It's not a romantic chick flick type movie is it?
Does it have any guns, babes or fighting? Otherwise I might have to think again before watching it

re: The Godfather

You may not speak to me until you do. And even then I won't be polite until you see Part II. This is an offer you can't refuse.

Now off to Blockbuster with you. Leave the gun. Take the canolli.

Hmmm. Is Anne a "babe"?

Uh. No real heavy-duty fighting.
No boobs-showing kinds of babes.
And the onlt guns in the movie are being used for hunting with - and we never "get" to see anyone bleeding as a result of the guns.

But it's not a chick-flick, either. It's a classic, like Little Women, only WAY better done than that one was.




Canolli?
~perking~
Can i have some?

Well Little Women had Winona Ryder....i like her...

Maybe I'll consider it, although my attention might get drawn away by a blood and guts movie, or a cover with an attractive woman on it
