S3E10 90s Spielberg: Jurassic Park

It’s a new month, and in honor of the Oscars, we’re talking about one of the Academy’s most recognized filmmakers of all time: Steven Spielberg. By the 90s, Spielberg had become one of Hollywood’s preeminent entertainers. He arguably reached his apex in 1993, when he directed the highest-grossing film of all time and a Best Picture winner in the same year. We’re starting with the box office behemoth: Jurassic Park.

Christian and Scott are revisiting this rewatchable classic to talk about dino danger, Spielbergian themes, and how hot Jeff Goldblum is. Plus, we’re still talking about Industrial Light & Magic, whose 1982 output gave us our January theme this year. With ground-breaking effects, Jurassic Park was one of the most influential films of the 90s, but does it hold up? Well, that’s maybe a dumb question. So, how much *does* it hold up?

And, after talking for 3 hours about the our thoughts on the Oscars (whoops), we share our thoughts on Anora’s big night.
