Talk: Jurassic Park

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

The best things about this movie was the special effects, the little girl saying "I know this, it's Unix", and the following joke: It takes place during the jeep vs. the T-Rex chase scene. The T-Rex is heading towards the jeep, the camera shot is looking out from the passenger seat towards the right side mirror where the dino and the famous 6 inch teeth are clearly visible. And of course the mirror says "objects in mirror are closer than they appear".

on "unix": more specifically it was irix with sgi's free 3d file system navigator. the computers in the Jurassic Park lab were all sgi workstations (probably thrown in as a product endorsement). the 3d computer-rendered effects were all produced with sgi hardware and software. ✈ James C. 01:13, 2004 Aug 17 (UTC)

Dinosaur creation from DNA extraction

could anyone more knowledgable in biology comment on the process of ancient DNA extraction used to "create" dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park"? -- ✈ James C. 01:05, 2004 Aug 17 (UTC)
