Jurassic Park, got me into film making as a kid, and I'm still chasing after the career. The film pretty much defines my whole childhood, can't really hold back a smile when it's talked about. As a man, I'm offended by God for pushing forward in time, to live around adults who have no desire away from their devices. I'm also offended that we're forced to grow up. Sure, I know it's life, but I'm being honest. Jurassic Park was one hell of a time.


About being a director? Funny, for when I was a kid, I wanted to be a director of that current Hollywood. I didn't know the 2000's would change the impact on how FX would be taken in by the public. In other words, I thought the 90's would wait for me to become a director, so that I'd be apart of that kind of Hollywood. I never viewed Hollywood changing. Now I understand that the 80's and 90's is the new old. Every director who has likely saw a life altering picture, likely thought like I. By the time we grow up, our childhood hollywood, is gone.

Seeing James Earl Jones walking around, and Stan Winston, no other behind the scenes video was as magical. It was a showcase of the best of the best, taking on a once in a lifetime story by Michael. Its my favorite spielberg film, because its only right, although I've valued more now. It really felt like the dinosaurs were back, like they did it, although they never did clone. As long as you kept watching the movie, they were alive too me.

I don't pay for cable, got the sega channel.

Another vote for Raiders. Everything about that film is so right : amazing set pieces(boulder escape, truck chase, ghouls escaping from the Ark, etc.), fully realised characters(Marion, Indy, Belloq, etc.), and a cracking adventure story.

it has also has by far the best MacGuffin of the series and the best set piece, which for me is still the Well of the Souls sequence.

It also has the best opening sequence and the best ending of the series.
