"I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here: it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step.

"Dr. Grant, my dear Dr. Sattler. Welcome to Jurassic Park." -John Hammond

"Oh my God. Do you know what this is? This is a dinosaur egg. The dinosaurs are breeding." -Dr. Grant

Wow, what a quotable movie. Your quote when she said, "he left us...he left us!" actually gets better when Dr. Grant says, "But that's NOT what I'm gonna do." Hook is also pretty quotable.

Anyway, my point for this entry was not to quote Jurassic Park necessarily, but it's to show how I am like John Hammond -- very irresponsible with knowledge. I'll talk more about it later.

wow. i almost got goosebumps when i read that quote. "Welcome... to Jurassic Park." and hook! "Have to fly, have to fight, have to crow, have to save Maggie, have to save Jack, Hookie's back." that's a good movie too. what are some other quotable movies? oh, i got one: lord of the rings. "a diversion!" hahaha

whoa, i just had a cool thought. what if they ever play jurassic park in theaters?! we would HAVE to see it. my first time watching it was in theaters. it was amazing.

Yeah...seeing Jurassic Park for the first time was amazing for me too. My dad snuck me out of the house so my brother wouldn't know what was going on and took me to see it. He warned me that it would be scary, and it was my first time seeing a PG-13 movie in theaters. I was SO nervous. I didn't know how scary it would be. Of course, it's not that scary now...but man! Those raptors in the kitchen! I remember that's all i thought about for a long time...good stuff
