bay guy largest owned room selection worked
In high school, I worked at The Video Room in Oakland, California. It had the largest selection of laser discs in the Bay Area. One guy owned all of them.
great obviously thrill
Obviously it's a thrill to direct a 'Jurassic Park' film, and it's a great honor.
beautiful movies
Now, everyone in movies is always rich, and they're always beautiful and graceful-looking.
became certain circle defined life number stretch time
I've always been someone with a small circle of friends. Each stretch of my life has been defined by one person who was just my person. We became inseparable for a certain number of years, and that time was our season, just the two of us making our way through life.
anyone dinosaurs discovered sick since
Never since we discovered there were dinosaurs did anyone get sick of them.
areas collective films human occupy stories venture
I like very human stories that venture into sci-fi or the supernatural or areas that I think occupy a lot of space in our collective memory for the films that we loved as children.
bit
I tell you, man, I'm every bit as a 'Star Wars' fan as anyone else.
elements filmmakers hoping introduce
That's the thing about leaks: sometimes they aren't misinterpreted or false. They're real story elements that the filmmakers were hoping to introduce to the audience in a darkened movie theater.
dynamic filmmaking might
'Jurassic Park' was able to get away with big, dynamic filmmaking that might be out of place in another kind of story.
character characters female male
There's no need for a female character that does things like a male character; that's not what makes interesting female characters in my view.
future spielberg
I'm a 'Star Wars' kid. I'm a 'Back to the Future' kid. I'm a Spielberg kid.
release tricky
Marketing for a film is tricky because you release stuff without context.
adventures fit funny movies scary specific takes
'Jurassic Park' movies don't fit into a specific genre. They're sci-fi adventures that also have to be funny, emotional, and scary as hell. That takes a lot of construction, but it can't feel designed.
directors
'Jurassic Park' is like 'Star Wars.' Different directors can give a different taste to each movie.
