1. Jurassic Plotless 4?

I'd much rather see a live-action version of Xenozoic Tales :D

2. Oooh ... this better not be a joke!

I'm actually excited for Jurassic Park 4!

[Archae]

3. Nope. Not a joke, but why?

I thought Jurassic Park went downhill fast after the first movie.

5. I liked the whole series. Wasn't expecting another sequel after all this time. n/t

6. REALLY looking forward to that.

Gary Oldman is a great actor.

Also I never paid attention to the BBC series because it was mostly on when I was kid and anything on PBS that wasn't Mr Rogers or Sesame street (and later, Monty Python) was of no interest to me. But I heard a thing on NPR yesterday about the series being released along with Smiley's People and now I want to see those.

I just don't know if I should find them first or see the movie first or if it matters...

8. Yeah, I heard that too

The BBC miniseries is regarded as the best adaptation of a le Carre novel so this film has a lot to live up to. I fear that it's too much story for a single 127 minute feature film but the reviews so far have been overwhelmingly positive (97% according to Rotten Tomatoes). I haven't seen the BBC version either and I fear that this version might pale in comparison, as good as Gary Oldman is, we're talking Sir Alec Guinness here. I intend to reread the book, then plan to see the film version and then, perhaps rent the miniseries to watch over the holidays.

7. The Jurassic Park staff ought to know how to control those beasts by now. n/t
