Gaius and Jackson celebrate the 30th anniversary of Jurassic Park by looking back at the Steven Spielberg that quickly became a gamechanger for the industry the moment it was released. Based on the 1990 novel of the same name by Michael Crichton, the film stars Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, Richard Attenborough, Joseph Mazzello, and Arian Richards and it is set on the fictional island of Isla Nubar, off Central America’s Pacific Coast near Costa Rica. The story follows a wealthy businessman and a team of genetic scientists that have created a wildlife park of de-extinct dinosaurs. When industrial sabotage leads to a catastrophic shutdown of the park’s power facilities and security precautions, a small group of visitors struggle to survive and escape the new perilous island. The duo looks back at the making of the film, its groundbreak special effects, characters and performances, as well as its legacy 30 years after its initial release.
