On another note, I didn't much like Jurassic Park. Helluva way for a great actor to finish his career, but he clearly upstaged that guy in a big rubber T-Rex suit he was chasing around. movie called The Last Dinosaur?Ĭheesy as heck, but it featured the great Richard Boone as some old grizzled big game hunter looking to take down a Tyrannosaur in Antartica (The warm area, where the dinosaurs are). It's hard to share a scene with a pterodactyl, but he pulled it off.Īnybody remember a made-for-T.V. I agree, K.D., Doug Maclure performed his leading man duties with grace and aplomb. The sequel gets dissed as a matter of course, but on a dinosaur-by-dinosaur, action scene-by-action scene, likeable cast member-by-cast member basis I actually prefer it.Īt least it doesn’t trade almost wholly on a phony sense of wonder.Ĭan I pretend Cloverfield is about a rampaging dinosaur and go with that? But the rest of the film is so weak and lifeless that I find it hard to watch. I can’t go with Jurassic Park - I love the T-Rex attack, it’s one of the best action scenes of all time. Love the big, bulky-headed T-Rexes though. I haven’t seen it in decades though, but I saw a bit of ‘At The Earth’s Core’ recently and that was terrible, so I’m scared to go back to LTTF. I remember having a dream before I’d ever been to see a film where I walked into a ‘cinema’ (which was a local cafe) and all the events of the film were happening at once on the wall like they are on the poster, and my dream-self said ‘that’s what a film is!’. I saw it - on a Moviola! - when I was a very little kid, and I had the original poster on my wall (my Dad worked for EMI films). I have a soft spot for The Land The Time Forgot.
