59: Jurassic Park: The Lost World (1997) [Patreon Freebie]

Canto34 Studios Episode 59

"Jurassic Park: The Lost World" is actually the second novel in Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park series, published in 1995. It's a sequel to the original "Jurassic Park" novel and serves as the basis for the second film in the Jurassic Park franchise, "The Lost World: Jurassic Park," directed by Steven Spielberg.

John Hammond, the disgraced creator of Jurassic Park, reveals that Isla Sorna is now an unsupervised ecosystem where dinosaurs are thriving. He recruits Malcolm and a small team—including Sarah (Julian Moore), wildlife expert Nick Van Owen (Vince Vaughn), and field equipment specialist Eddie Carr (Richard Schiff)—to document the dinosaurs in their natural habitat.

However, a team led by InGen’s new CEO, Peter Ludlow (Arliss Howard), arrives on the island with the goal of capturing dinosaurs and bringing them back to the mainland for a new Jurassic Park in San Diego. Their reckless actions lead to disaster as the dinosaurs fight back, culminating in a T. rex being transported to San Diego, where it escapes and wreaks havoc in the city.

What will your three hosts think of this movie? Well, strap yourself in by grabbing a dink, a snack, and your lucky pack because today we’re deep diving into a movie that does NOT deserve the hate that it gets….the 1997 Jurassic Park sequel….Jurassic Park: The Lost World.
