Jurassic Park
God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs. God creates man. Man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs...Dinosaur destroys man...Woman rules the earth!
Stephen Spielberg's 1993 Jurassic Park took move-goers on a prehistoric thrill ride. In classic Spielberg fashion, special effects, realistic creatures and terrifying action didn't disappoint. Intriguing plot twists kept us on edge, but a-typical writing made it a well-funded creature feature that's still a "must-see" for audiences of all ages.

The Sand Pit
I can’t possibly write about my life without mentioning the sand pit. Across the white sandy road I grew up on, there was a vast field of weeds we called the "Great Waste". Tall clusters of yellow and green weeds swayed in the summer sun for as far as the eye could see. On the other side was another road; one with sparkling beach-white sand, leading down to a sand pit.

What happens if there is no SUN?
If the Sun were to disappear suddenly, the consequences for Earth and its inhabitants would be profound and catastrophic. As the closest star to our planet, the Sun's radiant energy sustains all life as we know it. Its light and warmth provide the necessary conditions for the development and sustenance of living organisms, from the smallest microbes to complex ecosystems. However, the sudden absence of the Sun would plunge the Earth into darkness and cold, triggering a series of devastating events.

Pints & Parkruns: Jubilee, Spennymoor
If MC Escher created a parkrun, it might look a bit like Jubilee. Based in a compact – but surprisingly lovely – park in the small County Durham town of Spennymoor, it twists and turns its way up repeated hills. Although basic physics says it must come down again, somehow this route never feels like it gives runners a proper descent.

Great review 😁 I think my favourite bit of the film is, "live finds a way" 😁
This movie, and the original trilogy as a whole, inspired me creatively! I love the idea of showcasing man's hubris and it going horribly wrong. Ian Malcolm voicing his concerns about the ethical/moral dilemma about bringing back extinct life has always stuck with me. "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, They didn’t stop to think if they should."
Love it ❤️👌
I loveeeeeeeeee this movie! I've watched all 5 except the latest one. Loved your review but you forgot Jeff Goldblum 😋
