Jaws Vs. Jurassic Park

Jurassic Park

[Gnome]

You watch Jaws and it's like "this is pretty cool."

 

If you watch Jurassic Park, you think, "Wow this is kind of lame." I think it only blew people away because of the advanced CGI work that went into the movie which made the dinosaurs far more believable as living creatures then any previous film.

 

And really, the movie isn't all that great. It's just alright. 3rd one was better. But Jaws... jaws has always been slightly above jurassic park as far as fun goes.

^ really? I was thinking the complete opposite. I thought Jurassic Pack was mind-blowing when it first came out. Jaws I never really got into or was interested in. (maybe cause its an older film)

[major bummer]

Jaws is a classic, and was ground breaking FX for the time

Jurassic Park was on a whole new level when it was show on the silver screen.

Jaws is good, but Jurassic park got my vote

Both the movies and rides go to Jurassic Park.

I vote Jurassic Park, its an awesome movie.

I saw Jaws in cinema as akid and it freaked me out. I love the sea but even nowdays the moment my legs can touch the ground I start to imagin the scene from the movie with the legs and shark pov.

 

However the animal horror movie that really caused me to shake was Archenophobia.

Jaws was pretty lame. Jurassic Park was superior. There's your answer.

Tough choice, but I chose Jurassic Park.

Great suspense with groundbreaking special effects.

Jaws had the suspense, but not the effects.

Jaws is the beats Jurassic, because it scares my sister.

Jaws, it's just the greatest movie ever made. I love the book too, Peter Benchley is my favorite author.

[doitdumont1128]

my vote was Jurassic park. but to whoever said that no one screams anymore in the theaters, have you been to a PG-13 thriller opening night. OMG, when i saw disturbia, everybody was screaming lol. but yeah, both movie and ride goes to Jurassic Park

As a movie reviewer for a podcast, I go to 2 or 3 movies a week. My genres of preference are horror, thrillers, sci-fi, adventure and fantasy. So I see a lot of movies where people should be reacting. Maybe it's just this city.

 

Also, I see that JP is leading Jaws, two to one. Keep em comin'. It's interesting that Jaws was ahead in the beginning to be so fully overshot by Jurassic Park. Although I'm wondering if that's due to the theme park nature of the board... Maybe I should have put Jaws 3 against Jurassic Park. haha j/k

JP- T-rex knocks car over wall, escaped dinosaurs wreaking havoc amongst an island. Great CG, especially for the time it was made.

 

Jaws- shark that bites people.

 

I think JP wins. But every sequel each movie sucks badly.

[sfmmrules!]

They both scare me, but the rides could be better. There is a Jurassic Park 4 coming out for sure either next year or 09. I'm sure its next year. IOA might get a Jurassic Park flying coaster thats been a rumor at screamscape forever. I hope it comes true!

Gotta go with Jurassic Park. The Velociraptors were the difference. Plus I liked the the following lines:

 

 

"It's just a delay. All major theme parks have delays. Yeah, but John when the Pirates of the Carribbean breaks down, the pirates don't eat the tourists."

 

"What do they have back there, King Kong?"

Definitely Jurassic Park. The scene with the kids and the raptors, in the kitchen, is INTENSE.
