Starting point is 00:01:10 and i gave a whole email to everyone on this team what genre i know said a whole email about it and i did not mention it just yesterday uh all right yeah prepper thanks for editing these down i know universe is a bit of a pain in the butt and i'm glad we got to do this is like a first It's fun. We've done like first time rewatches or something like that. But this was the one of the, I don't know, this felt like a good like film commentary film school. I've never watched Jurassic Park with like the film analysis.

Starting point is 00:01:40 Right aspect. But also it makes it fun because you feel like you can sort of talk during certain times because you're like, well, I'm not missing, truly missing out on parts because you've seen it before. Yeah. That's a good experience. Good experience. We got some questions that we put off for the patrons. We let them know that we're watching.

Starting point is 00:01:59 watching stuff today. So let's shout them out here. Lee Marks says, obviously it is an actual dinosaur. There's a couple of questions here that I saw are this. But recently in the news, scientists are working towards bringing the mammoth back to life. Oh.

Starting point is 00:02:16 But, oh, I didn't know specifically that by changing and merging the DNA with today's Asian elephants. Oh. A lot of people are saying that this concept actually stemmed in some part from this movie. Yeah. Oh, I know DNA. They've merged it with frogs.

Starting point is 00:02:29 What are your thoughts on using this concept to bring back extinct animals and the thought of a movie from the 90s, possibly shaping science decades later? Do you think there should be a line that science doesn't cross? And then Game Night J-14 said

Starting point is 00:02:45 the same, I imagine something similar. Currently scientists are trying to bring back extinct species in the real world such as the woolly mammoth, Tasmania, and Tiger, and the Dodo after seeing Jurassic Park. What are your thoughts on this? I've been no I like really like inside of me I'm like yeah do it I want to see it I want to see a woolly mammoth and like wow that would be so it would be so epic but at the same time I'm like yeah it would it would be scary and then also think about the aspect of like pretend they do it they have a woolly mammoth and let's say they take all the precautions and it's like in the zoo and you're like but then how many people are just going to like flock there.

Starting point is 00:03:29 and then how dangerous could it get? Also at the same time, I might start feeling bad for the woolly mammoth like stuck in this thing where it doesn't belong. Yeah, exactly. I mean, you'd be caging an animal that shouldn't be caged. Yeah. And there's something that from watching,

Starting point is 00:03:48 this actually started from watching movies that a lot more politically heavy that came out in the 90s when we're watching this on this channel and it really started sinking in with me how they make these movies. movies that are trying to tell the world something and then we watch it and go it's entertaining and there's some good messages and then cut to today 30 years later and it's worse and the movie from the 90s was warning us about it. So sometimes I watch movies that are like today that people

Starting point is 00:04:17 that are like politically heavy and are trying to tell you like here's what the future might look like if we don't shut this now. Right. And we tend to not listen. We don't listen to cautionary signs we don't listen to caution and uh it's kind of crazy to know that we have evolved in science where they can possibly do something like this yeah and there's like a giant franchise telling you no don't do it no do it and hear the repercussion yeah and so yeah i mean to your point i think you would be it's like when i see a i don't like going to the zoo like i see a lion and i think it's absolutely depressing it's shit yeah and they don't they shouldn't be there and this is not their environment they're just depressed and you're caging them when they should be living in their

Starting point is 00:04:59 environment right and they're not like domesticated animals like a cat or a dog so to be doing that to these kind of creatures right rupertures come from that and that's one of the things that i didn't ever i never actually thought of or had a conversation about until this viewing is the idea of clones is that clones are some people wonder about the concept of uh robots and sentient AI you know if it's a clone do we disregard it then as not being a life or is it actually a life so it's got a beating heart it's a human creations it would be a life yeah so to me i wouldn't treat as just some like clone that we can control no god no this would be a line crossed um and the sad part of it is that if they did create it i would totally want to see me too

Starting point is 00:05:48 it's also a nature versus nurture thing right there's an argument in all of that with animals with humans. So whether or not it's a clone, you know, the nature part is there. I think it's honestly 50-50. So whatever the nurture environment is for the woolly mammoth can turn out to be a completely different woolly mammoth, right, than what we had back in the day when it actually went extinct. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:06:15 Which is, you know, the reason why most zoos exist, it's there for educational purposes. ideally to educate you on those animals and how to have safer practices like with fishing with dolphins and look out for this with tigers, right? But overall, I do think when you go, it is sad. What this movie did correctly, which after just watching Jurassic Park, the amount of room, the scope they give you to go, oh wait this is like a full ass island that like they have plenty of room to roam around when we were walking around with the scientists right those the little ones who ran up on them

Starting point is 00:07:01 they're like they're in a herd they look like they're living their lives organically and we don't have maybe i've never been to the wild animal i've never been to Walt Disney World that wild animal park maybe it's big and they get to do what they would normally do in the wild thank goodness but most sues don't have the room for that right but um in my head where i go yeah i'd want to see the woolly mammoth i would be like oh i hope that it would be at a place that's like the wild animal park where it's like they have acres and acres and acres upon land and these animals are not caged they're allowed to roam and live their lives organically as they would right um but man that would still be i don't know that would be a scary thing that would be a terrorist thing

Starting point is 00:07:48 Thanks for those questions. We've got a couple more here. Stardust and Madness. Since most people stop getting asked about adulthood, what's our favorite of the dinosaurs depicted in any of the movies? Oh. I, oh, in any of the movies? Let's go with this one.

Starting point is 00:08:05 For me, the Brontosaurus. The first one that we see, that was stuck in my brain of like the hat, the glasses. And wow, how cool is that? uh it sounds like a generic ass answer uh this experience this is the first time i've had this with Jurassic park specifically where with the T-Rex i really felt like it was a strange thing when it was attacking the the children i said it when i was watching during that moment like oh i'm not like the the velociraptors still feel like monsters yeah they don't really i don't really get the animal sense from them even though there's more flushing out on them as animals yeah

Starting point is 00:08:47 And then the T-Rex. But the T-Rex, I was like, I just feel like the T-Rex is being an animal right now, just being a T-Rex. Totally, totally. And I felt like the personality of an animal there and not just a movie monster, which I feel like the T-Rex has sort of been chalked up to. I agree because you could see him in the way that he uses his, like, his nose. He reminded me of like a dog or a cat where they're like just moving things around and exploring it in nature. this is a totally weird thing for him. He's taking a tire off a car and spitting it out

Starting point is 00:09:22 because it's like what's going on here. You know, so it's like he's really just being an animal exploring his environment. I will say, because they asked, they asked, favorite of the dinosaurs depicted in any of the movies, that Brontosaurus will always stick in my head, but forever and always I'm a T-Rex girl. I mean, that used to be my logo for my YouTube channel before. I love a good T-Rex.

Starting point is 00:09:45 And the last question that we got from Patreon, turns Thomas Doherty. He says, this took myself years before noticing, but did either of you notice someone's hand moving the Velociraptor when it's entering the kitchen? What? I believe it's on the 42 minute mark. Okay, let's see if we can. We have to go back. Let's see if we can spot whatever they're talking about here. Reject Nation, the basketball playoffs are heating up. And if you want to turn your takes into something real. You've got to check out prize picks. Our go-to in the daily fantasy sports world. If you've never tried it, here. Here's how it works. It's relatively simple.

Starting point is 00:10:20 You pick two to six players, and you guess whether or not they'll get more or less than the stat line price pick sets. This week, I'm looking at the basketball board and selecting Donovan Mitchell for more than 26 points, Jason Tatum for more than nine rebounds, Nikola Yoakicch for more than 25 points, and Anthony Edwards for more than four assists. Basketball terminology. It's that simple. If your picks hit, you win. Even my dumbnogging can keep up with that. And the more picks that you string together, the more money. you can make up to 1,000 times your entry. And what's cool is it's not just basketball. You can mix and

Starting point is 00:10:53 match players across different sports like baseball, football, hockey, even esports. It's like building your own custom bet. It's all based on player stats and you're in full control. Plus they invented something called flex play, which means even if one of your picks misses, you can still win cash. And payouts are super fast. I've seen it hit in under 15 minutes. So here's what you can do. You can download the app today and use code rejects to get $50 instantly after you play your first five dollar lineup again that's code rejects 50 dollars instantly after your first five dollar lineup prize picks run your game i mean when it's entered the kitchen that can't be the 42 minute mark no that was way later 42 minute mark he's like 42 he meant maybe he meant 1 42 probably yeah that's a good

Starting point is 00:11:38 astute observation there oh here we go here we go all right okay he's entering the kitchen A hand? There! Oh, you're right. There's totally a hand there. Holy shit. 1.148. Okay, yo, oh, my God.

Starting point is 00:12:03 Yo, you're so right. Oh, my God. Go back a little bit. Oh, pay you all. We have to give them the exact time. Yeah, we got to show you the footage. Oh, my God. This is just so good.

Starting point is 00:12:13 Uh, it's coming up. 149. Yeah, it's pretty much. One hour, 49 minutes. Pretty much right here. Okay, there. Oh, you see the hand to get in? There it is.

Starting point is 00:12:24 Oh, there's totally a hand there. That is crazy. 149. Oh, shit. Nine. The hand on the butt. That is nuts. Oh, my God.

Starting point is 00:12:36 He reaches in there. Look at him. And he pushes it down. Oh, he's totally pushing it. Oh, cool. It's perfect. Oh, my God, it's still there. I love, I.

Starting point is 00:12:45 It's like a real animal. He's like, mind blowing mind blown it's so good because you just and what is so funny about that is that there are i bet you you know stevens and video village and the producers are but you're overtaken by the moment of a raptor coming in that you're like i don't even who's going to know that's that not me i had to really look for it and then when you see it you're like it's so obvious it's so obvious that is crazy you know they had to have caught that and just gone you know what we probably didn't notice it in when they were actually filming it.

Starting point is 00:13:21 Yeah. And then after they went, well, we've got to go with it. Because you miss stuff in Video Village. It's a tiny screen. You're not seeing it on a big screen. And like to think that guy obviously didn't know where the shot was going. It was a master. He maybe thought it was a close up, put his hand in there helping, obviously, to move it.

Starting point is 00:13:40 Yeah. Wow. Oh, wow. I bet you. I wonder if he talks about it. He's like, that's my hand. I know. Right.

Starting point is 00:13:46 I would. I would. I totally effed up that shot and they still used it. Thank goodness. Dude. Oh, that's a good clip out for socials. Wow.

Starting point is 00:13:55 Did you see me jump out of my chair? I lost my mind. I cannot believe. Wow. That was so cool. Thank you for that. Thomas Doherty. That was your timing was so wrong.

Starting point is 00:14:08 So wrong. You're way off. 42 minute mark, buddy. No. No. But I love you for this. Wow. Dude.

Starting point is 00:14:14 Oh, this is a patron. It's a patron. Thank you so much. Oh my God. That was great. That was amazing. Well, we'll give some quick thoughts. The idea of with doing these kind of watches, though, is that like we're kind of giving a lot of what we would say at this portion during the actual reaction. So we would just be repeating a lot of what we were saying. Right. But yeah, I mean, how does it feel watching this was making short? How does it feel watching? Thank you for that. It was funny of how much I was still scared by things that I, and we get it. I don't remember a lot of the stuff. There is. still some stuff that I was like, I think I remember what goes on here, but it still freak me out. I was still legitimately scared during this movie, which I really appreciate about it. Because there's movies who try to give you a good jump scare and add in the music and have the timing be right with a good amount of lighting. And this movie just does it just so effortlessly while also using a huge prop that they also have to get

Starting point is 00:15:14 in order with humans like operating it to give you that scare and the camera has to be at the right angle and the lighting has to be right there's just a lot of moving parts when we're talking about this they're not just working with actors and humans they're working also with a practical prop that they have to engage to make it look like it's coming towards you and again i even with the arm coming in effortless yeah yeah uh it's interesting as i i remember a lot of my feelings more so with how the franchise evolves into and especially with the Jurassic World movies and so much of this is like a film that you can absolutely study for a blockbuster of the the genius of the characters and how much you get connected to them and how none of them feel like they don't feel like archetypes you know like I'm sure they're there but it's not as simple as that and i think you i mean drastic world litter with uh archetypes and and this doesn't feel like archetypes no at all they feel like human beings right down to the stuff i never really

Starting point is 00:16:26 noticed or picked up on is like oh you know hammond as like billionaire investor guy with dreams it normally a character like that is kind of like uh a nefarious yeah a jerk yeah it's not the case here and the brilliance of the children and yeah i was right there with you like I've seen these scenes like a few times before. There's a couple moments. I'm like, damn, this is still like so intense.

Starting point is 00:16:48 This is still scary. And like there are some scares that I, I did forget about. But this was like a super fun, unique way to experience this movie. And I loved it. Yeah. I loved it a lot.

Starting point is 00:17:00 And I'm excited to see what the evolution is. Because out of all the Jurassic Park ones that I recall the best, it would undoubtedly be this one. And Lost World probably second. And then after that, it's like I kind of. see some of the plot beat i see the plot beats but i specificity like the science of it too was probably the other part that i'm like i didn't remember rejection about science words here

Starting point is 00:17:26 so there was things like oh really like the frogs and the uh and that they they can change like chromosome of a male to female like what okay yeah and those are all like important details that for some reason to not stay in my brain right so yeah it still holds up and visual effects are still amazing because the wonder and horror is such a prevailing part of it. And I also think when you're talking about archetypes, I just right now was like, oh, Hammond in all white, like you mentioned, God character, gold, gold boom, all black. Yeah. And he is really the devil on everyone's shoulder going this from the start.

Starting point is 00:18:09 Yeah, good point. This is dangerous. We shouldn't be doing. No, no, no, no. do you realize what you're doing here is like you right you already he's already right there going he's the antithesis to him yeah and he's in all black i love that yeah and i didn't i've of course like i know that you know alan would love these children but i didn't realize how incredibly nuanced or at least i didn't remember how incredibly nuanced and detailed uh everything was with the

Starting point is 00:18:40 with the children's storyline building up and how that arc would be there. Like I really love how when they're first having that conversation in the wide shot with them going up the hill talking about children, how it just feels like a character detail. It doesn't feel like a thing that, oh, we're setting this up, you know? Right. And it's a strange experience because this movie obviously in Spielberg alone has inspired so many filmmakers to become filmmakers

Starting point is 00:19:05 to watch a movie where you know where some beats are going, but to see how it's done, you start comparing it to how movies now would do it. Yeah. And you're like, damn, this is like a whole other class of, it might be early 90s, but the watchability of it is as a strong or stronger than any modern day film. Absolutely. And I think it really does have to do with the casting and his tracking shots, his long shots where he doesn't cut.

Starting point is 00:19:33 I mean, those take, you know, a lot of rehearsal, a lot of time. Those are all, I mean, most of us, I assume. It's our favorite shots. It's definitely mine. And, you know, Spilberg is at the top of his game when he does it. And I think that's what this movie does best in times when people just need to be moving. It should feel like play. We're not going to just you stop there and I'm going to film you and you talk to him.

Starting point is 00:19:57 That's like, no, just what would real life be? Let's just block it out, move as you would and have the camera follow you as though we're there, living in a real environment. And that's, I think, what Spielberg does. specifically very, very well. Yeah, I love this. I love this a lot. I'm glad we got to do this and why we're doing this. Hopefully you guys are willing to join us on this journey.

Starting point is 00:20:18 Thanks to our patrons, of course. I love your questions. Please give us more questions for the, like, I don't remember Lost World. So I'm excited for the questions. Yeah, on Patreon, what we're doing is every day we'll be, when we're filming, well, put up this, I'll release the shooting schedule on the week.

Starting point is 00:20:34 So it's a unique way to, normally people, I notice people will put up upload schedules, which makes way more sense. Because you're telling people what to expect. Right. Whereas like, hey, some of the stuff we're shooting now, but you probably won't see it for many weeks. But it's like we have to get it on camera, right? So you guys are going to, our patrons are the ones who are going to be knowing what we're shooting that day, specifically that day.

Starting point is 00:20:56 I love it. And so, yeah, you guys get a little bit of behind the scenes. But thank you super sexies. Thanks to our followers here. I'm actually super jazz to be kicking this off. We'll see you guys soon. Kelly Varyer. No, John, what do we do?

Starting point is 00:21:14 We have to find if you were an organization, what your acronym would stand for. And I'm going to say the K stands for kick ass, because that's what you are for being here and joining us. E stands for equality because we kick ass for human rights. L stands for logs. which I bet you would know how to use in various circumstances of infrastructure. Al, the next one, stands for lip service, because we all need to do a little lip service once in a while, don't we? They do, and the Y stands for Yellowstone National Park, which you are as beautiful as, and as everyone should visit at some point in their life, because it's one of the natural wonders of the world. As are you, Kelly.

Starting point is 00:22:07 and you got a cool name I hope we pronounced it correctly because I bet you're French Yeah yeah I hope you enjoyed what your new organization The V stands for Vue de fouche a Swisswa

Starting point is 00:22:21 Yeah And E stands for Escargo And R stands for Rebier Re Reurre Reno Jean Reno Yeah you got bonus letters

Starting point is 00:22:35 Congratulations See you next month, hopefully.
