Re: Third Jurassic Park Movie Coming in 2000
Do take into consideration that just about everyone in Jersey ( and
everywhere else ) had already seen Lost World by the time it was released
on video. Every time I take kids out on field trips ( 50 and 60 at a time
)to teach them something about Oligocene marine fossils, all I hear about
from them is dinosaur and everyone of them is intimately familiar with JP
and LP. Briefly stated, the dinosaur renaissance WILL NEVER BE OVER!
