Evacuate the island.

I saw Jurassic Park and I was 16 years old.

Taught me a lesson what great movies can do.

It doesn't have to be for children,

it can be something that everyone in the audience

children for those two hours.

I wanted to tell a great story

and I wanted something that was going

to be able to entertain children.

To me, it wasn't so much about the movie

it was more about our culture in general

and this desire for constant upgrades

and entertain us more, and a bit of a blase attitude

about the scientific technological and also

natural wonders around us because we have

seen everything now, we have the internet,

a little bit about the corporatization

of science and the danger of bringing that need for money

and profit into a scientific process.

And then it's also, I think on a larger scale,

and hopefully this is more for the children

who watch it, it is about our relationship

with the other living things on this planet

and the planet itself.

Line in the movie that Irrfan Khan says

dinosaurs remind us how very small we are and how new.

And that's one of the reasons I'm fascinated by them

is in the same way of when you look up at the stars

and you feel dwarfed and you feel very small

and you recognize how completely microscopic

your personal issues are and even this planet

is in general, I think dinosaurs do the same thing.

In the context of our earth, you recognize

we are only the dominant alpha species on this planet

because we are here right now

and if we were here 65 million years ago

we probably wouldn't even be here.

We would disappear very quickly.

I think the characters are presented

in a little bit more of a classical point to point

storytelling, in the way that it's all designed.

It's very simple and efficient and clean

and I'm very proud of that.

What it does do that I really love,

if I could name one thing is it allows the dinosaurs

to become characters.

And I really embrace the face that the T-Rex

in the last movie

ultimately by the end, she starts out as a villain

and then she saves everybody and she becomes a hero.

And I thought we could take that another step forward.

And so there are several dinosaurs in this movie

that by the time you get to the end,

you kind of know them.

You don't just know their mythology

but you know a little bit about their personalities,

so when they fight it's a little more loaded.

There's stakes there that are a little more emotional

and when it all goes down, it's not just a bunch

of computers punching each other.

It feels like living things that you care about

and you want to know who wins.

And that especially for kids, that kind of stand up

and cheer moment, which is difficult to manufacture,

you have to earn it.

And I think we have it in this movie

and I've seen audiences react to it

and that moment where you just get this,

people having the time of their lives

that makes me very happy.
