Dinosaurs?
Yep, Dinosaurs. Dinosaurs, and their prehistoric world absolutely fascinates me. They are interesting, terryfying, perplexing, and even funny.
Dinosaurs lived during THREE times Eras during the Mesizoac. The TRIASSIC, where they were first starting to bloom, the JURASSIC, where they wer now taking shape, and the CRETACEOUS where they were full color!
They died out over 65 million years ago. Most scientists attribute the extinction to a massive asteroid that collided with Earth and blocked out the Sun with dust. But there are other theories as well. We just can't say for sure.

Jurassic Park
Jurassic Park (1995, Universal), The Lost World (1997, Universal), and Jurassic Park 3 (2001, Universal) make up the heart-stopping JP Trilogy. This action packed series is based on Micheal Chrichtons two novels Jurassic Park and The Lost World: Jurassic Park.
The story is about how genetics company, InGen, creates actual Dinosaurs from fossilized DNA. When Dr. Alan Grant, a leading paleontologist, is asked to fly down to Isla Nublar, and island off the coast of Costa Rica, he is ecstatic.
Unfortunately, a fierce storm strikes Nublar when Grant and a group of others are in the park. Plus, the situation isn't helped by Dennis Nedry, who actually cuts all power to the park. With the power out, the Dinosaurs are free, and Grant and the others must fight to survive!
