Jurassic Park

I know it is been a long time since I did the Jurassic Park responses, but I thought you may want to see what I wrote about Jurassic Park. Here are the questions I answered.

1. How did the music contribute to the mood and suspense of the story?

Music may not seem important in the story but it is a key in scaring the ants out of your pants. The music really dramatizes the move so that it creates a more of a tenser scene when it is starting to get ugly. Also it helps creates more suspense. One example of this is whenever the T-Rex is coming there is a booming sound in the background foreshadowing the event of a major attack. Therefore without music and suspense in the movie the movie would be an EPIC FAIL.

2. If you believe the story is a tragedy, then explain Dennis Nedry’s tragic flaw and the tragic fall that follows because of it.

Dennis Nedry, an overweight nerd about computer has a major tragic flaw. His tragic flaw is his overconfidence. His overconfidence pretty much leads him to his tragic fall which is dying. You may be asking why over confidence is his tragic flaw just think about it. He thinks that with ease he can hack the system, take the egg supplies, and run away. News flash Dennis this is Jurassic Park, and you just off the system that keeps you safe, and you want to just drive away. If I could just say one thing, you are plain old dumb. In conclusion, the flaw that Dennis has which is overconfidence, leads him to his death against a raptor, which he let in to his path by turning off the security system.

1. During the tour of the facility, Ian Malcolm comments that “Life finds a way.” What does he mean? How does this foreshadow events that occur later?

Life finds a way, might be a simple saying but actually comes through in the movie. To me life finds a way means that the life of that egg will finds its way. This event foreshadows a few main events. One event is when the eggs hatch which happens when water helps make it grow. Therefore life has found its way. Also when they overcome Jurassic Park by going off the island, once again life finds a way. In conclusion, the comment “Life finds a way” by Ian Malcolm is an awesome comment that foreshadows many great events.
