Let's celebrate the 20th anniversary of Jurassic Park 3 with a look back at the making of the film...

    Intro: An Introduction to a JP3 Obsession

    Intro: An Introduction to a JP3 Obsession

    Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the release of Jurassic Park 3, join me (host Daniel Stephen) as I talk with the crew (and a few cast members) about the making of JP3 as well as share my stories about growing up with Jurassic. I say this is an introduction to an obsession because there's no movie on this planet that I've watched more than the third Jurassic film. It's definitely a condition. I love it. It's not the best in the franchise but I love it. From the incredible aviary sequence to the random dark humor from writers Alexander Payne and Jim Taylor, this film deserves another look and lots more respect.

    Ep. 4 - The Duel of the Dinos

    20 years later and still recovering from the death of the t-rex. Bold filmmaking or pure nonsense? We discuss the spino vs t-rex fight and the challenges facing the crew when trying to film the sequence.  Other highlights include a Spielberg encounter, Joe Johnston up in a tree, and maybe we'll hear about an earlier draft of JP3...maybe.

    Ep. 5 - Billy Brennan and the Design of Suspense

    Ep. 5 - Billy Brennan and the Design of Suspense

    A glimpse at what the entire film could have been. Jurassic Park 3's aviary sequence gets so many things right, including the proper amount of suspense with carefully placed buildup of tension. Why does it work so well? How difficult was it to film someone walking around set wearing a Pteranodon costume? Is Grant a jerk? Let's discuss.

Something amazing has arrived

I am a huge Jurassic Park 3 fan. I saw it on a family holiday to San Francisco from the UK and loved it. The charm of the film has not waned for me in the intervening 20 years and this podcast is something I’ve been waiting for. Also even if you’re not a fan the insight into the making of a large Hollywood movie is amazing as well.
