Episode 71 - Isla Nublar

Welcome to the Juras-Sick Park-Cast podcast, the Jurassic Park podcast about Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park, and also not about that, too. 

Find the episode webpage at: Episode 71 - Isla Nublar.

In this episode (stream it here!), my terrific guest A.C. Gleason joins the show to chat with me about:

editing texts, adapating the novel into the film, Jaws, Spielberg films, H.P. Lovecraft, Crichton's writing, Crichton's success at writing screenplays, considering what else could have been added or omitted from the text into the film, dinosaurs, velociraptors, smoothly delivering believable science fiction, the Epigraph by Linnaeus, intellectual properties, gaining power and much more!

Plus dinosaur news about:

• A New Theropod Dinosaur from the Callovian Balabansai Formation of Kyrgystan. (Alpkarakush kyrgyicus)

• Caletodraco cottardi: A New Furileusaurian Abelisaurid from the Cenomanian Chalk of Normandy. (Caletodraco cottardi)

Featuring the music of Snale https://snalerock.bandcamp.com/

Intro: Buzzsaw Partyboy, and the Outro: Sleepyhead.

Now available on Youtube! 

The Text:

Stitches and seams in the text.

Then:  

Jurassic Park (1993): Sc. 6 "Isla Nublar."

David Koepp's first draft, and Malia Scotch-Marmo's rewrite of Michael Crichton's draft of the script. 

Corrections:

Thanks to @ravensthatflywiththenightm7319 that at 47:13 The movies don't mention "mongoliensis" in the dialogue - that's entirely in the books.

Side effects: 

May cause you to abbreviate the alphabet into a much easier to digest little ditty.
