Jurassic World Roars


Jurassic World is taking the box offices by storm, raking in a cool 206 Million before the weekend was over. The ever-classic Dinosaurs are running around like they own the place theme is a cool and scary idea. The fact that they evolve to higher intelligence, well that has got us all pulling out the credit cards and loading up the cars to head to the movies. I  unfortunately have not seen the newest movie yet. To the imaginative, books will always be better than the movie adaption. Primarily because we miss so much visually. The sound of the stomping and roaring in the distance, the water in the giant dinosaur print rippling foretells of doom. But the actual environment, the time of day, the heat rising, all of the micro descriptives that are put into the movies sometimes get lost. Adding the uber talented Steven Spielberg to direct this series, to try to capture as much of this as possible, well it was certainly not going to fail. This franchise series is definitely entertaining and entertaining emough to keep people going back to the theaters since the movies premiered and before Jeff Goldblum started greying....Must go Faster!

The man behind the movies
Michael Crichton's title as an author is not necessarily fitting as he also created shows like ER, I believe he also helped to write the movie Twister and did some directing on an adaption of one of his novels called The Great Train Robbery. Some may even call him the accidental writer as he dabbled in several genre's trying to figure out what he wanted to write. Thank goodness he did dabble and dabble well, because look at the legacy of books, movies and scripts that are left for future generations to garner fresh ideas and adaptions from. Crichton studied at Harvard Medical School, I guess with the thoughts of having a conventional career but his love of reading and storytelling would not be silenced. He was after all the son of a journalist. Michael Crichton passed in 2008.

For those of you who have not experienced the novels or the movie let's get you caught up!



An astonishing technique for recovering and cloning dinosaur DNA has been discovered. Now humankind’s most thrilling fantasies have come true. Creatures extinct for eons roam Jurassic Park with their awesome presence and profound mystery, and all the world can visit them—for a price. Until something goes wrong. . . .












It is now six years since the secret disaster at Jurassic Park, six years since the extraordinary dream of science and imagination came to a crashing end—the dinosaurs destroyed, the park dismantled, and the island indefinitely closed to the public.

There are rumors that something has survived. .









Once you are done with the books feel free to watch the trilogy before heading to the movies to see the next installment of dino terror!
