The film showed Silicon Graphics workstation (using IRIX, the SGI System V based Unix) running a three dimensional file system browser

That user interface was product placement and it was very real. Unfortunately, 3D file browsers never caught on.

She was simply browsing.

still some of the best combining of practical and visual effects ever made

Second only to Independence Day if you ask me.

I was watching this scene again a couple days ago. The way the t-Rex interacts with the jeep is fantastic. It looks genuinely terrifying at 3:12. The whole scene is masterful and you get a real sense of Spielberg's talents. There's a horrible weightlessness to Jurassic World and most other CGI shit flicks. It's awful watching actors act against tennis balls. The human eye has an innate bullshit-detector and it's triggered in scenes like the I-Rex vs the t-Rex in JW. I think technical film making in big budget movies is effectively dead at the moment. Studios just outsource this shit and call it a day.

Did anyone here go to the 20th anniversary 3D theatrical showings they had going on back in 2013?

Entertainment projected/displayed on a 2D screen will be just as antiquated as puppet shows put on by some poor Italian in a tourist trap, attempting to preserve the art form.

>>84510643
They still show it several times per week.
Just last week they had "Raptorfest"

Imagine the over the top CGI shitfest action scene this would be today.

>>84510536
Jurassic Park is the 90s' Jaws. It allowed the Berg to do what he excels at so he could deliver another top of the line horror/thriller masterpiece.

This was LITERALLY the first time any living thing was CGI'ed in a movie.
Let that sink in for a minute.
Before you have liquid metal and not much else.
It's insane.

>>84512008
I only wish the people involved in these movies could just be honest and say they're mostly just entertainment for kids and fun loving adults but they always have to act like they're actually trying to make a genuine piece of cinematic art. Watching Bryce Dallas Howard, Chris Pratt, and Colin Trevorrow talk out of their asses about how they're trying to preserve JP's legacy with good films that would make Michael Crichton proud is just painful.

>>84510536

This scene is the best use of CGI ever

Debate me

Won't debate, but I have a theory. Since these CGI effects artists were literally pioneers, nobody claimed to understand what they were doing or how or why it worked, there was a mysticism to their craft and as such they were left alone to get only the best results. Their pioneering meant they never got lazy or complacent about matching lighting to the live action plates, and the utmost care was taking for compositing.

Cut to now, when every dickhead has photo editing software on their phones and execs are allowed to give notes on CGi shots like they know a single fucking thing about how it works, too many cooks spoiling the broth, asking for things like different shapes on explosions, more debris etc, or even commenting on weight in animation. Compositing is a job title and the pioneering attention to detail that made jurassic park believable has been replaced by routine, because execs who dont understand CGi demand for it to be done cheaper, treating the artists poorly, thus getting subpar work, which they feel they need to give notes on, which starts the whole cycle again.

worth the watch

>>84510536
Apparently during breaks in shooting the t-rex would sometimes scare the shit out of the crew or visitors to the set by making uncontrolled movements like head turns etc caused by water interfering with the electronics. I think with today's technology, life on sets must be very different these days. More sterile, fewer cool stories and a reduced sense of accomplishment and adventure in movie making. Where's the magic in sending all your action scenes away to be rendered by a special effects team in Korea?

>>84510643
lol they've played Jurassic Park like a dozen times in the last week or two alone

>>84514002
I'm sure they have but I barely watch the channel anymore. I just remember them running ads celebrating the 15th anniversary back in 2008.

Well judging from this making of:
>>84513873

You had a miniature and stop motion master doing that, you had Stan Winston doing large animatronics and then another master on compositing.

Then they made the entire storyboards into miniature claymation to make sure they figured out where everything would go later.

This is just 12 minutes in, but rest assured this level of pre-production is not going to happen now. One key exception might be for the Avatar sequels, because it's James Cameron and they're pre-planning 52 sequels, so they need to have their shit together since it's gonna cost the GDP of a small nation.

>>84511595
I did, and it was fucking great. Watching it in a theater made me appreciate the sound so much more.

>>84514159
correct. there is a lot of freedom with new GCI techniques that allows directors to do great handheld work. it was that they used the best people but knew their limits in Jurassic Park that allowed them to create a good result. The best CGI now arguments films in ways we don't see.

I just watched JW for the first time a couple days ago. Even outside of the obvious technical side of things and the competency of those working in each department, there was a lack of 'heart' in JW compared to JP. I hate complaining about intangible things, but I can't think of a better way to describe it. There's a quality to films like JP that is totally missing from movies like Jurassic World.

>>84514425
Most movies lack heart today. It's a common problem. Every MCU movie lacks heart. You just don't care about anything happening and by the time it's over you feel empty inside because the movie didn't make you feel anything... besides empty inside.

I went to go see it in 70mm IMAX four fucking times. It was amazing. Ironically enough, I finally picked up the 3d bluray and it brought me back to 2013. I think its the best looking 3d film along side Pacific Rim and Avatar.

There's a real talent in blockbusters that's missing these days.

That scene had so much going on at the same time in terms of special effects, sound effects, lighting, angles, actors actions etc.

>>84514707
Pacific Rim is gay af tho bruh

>>84510536
Looking at this now one of my favorite shots is at 0:52, the head is the animatronic and then the camera zooms in on the view out of the windshield and the rex walking away is CG, all in one shot. Most everything else in the film is either cg in a shot or practical in a shot, but this is possibly the only one to blend the two.

>>84514707

Pacific Rim was really gay
