Jurassic Park mistake picture

New this monthRevealing mistake: When the group stops to watch the Brachiosaurus, its CGI head clips through the branches of the tree, and the body becomes transparent. A close-up is provided, though it's not necessary at all when watching it on screen.

New this monthSuggested correction: There is no clipping. When his head is turned, its head is in front of the branches, and when he starts looking forward and goes on his hind legs, its head is behind the branches.

New this weekThere's a photograph to prove it where a branch superimposes the dinosaur's head.

Sacha ★

New this weekI don't see any superimposing. Its head is in front of the branch. It's even clearer in the moving scene, no superimposing to spot. Is this screenshot from the VHS version? Because if it's not visible there, it won't be in any other version either.

New this monthRevealing mistake: The two Ford Explorers have no connection to the electric track they run on. You can see this clearly in the scene where the group is getting into them, and then on the rear car when they pass through the oversized gates to enter Jurassic Park. (00:42:27)

Trivia

Jurassic Park trivia picture

Trivia: When the grandchildren and Grant are crawling above the drop-down ceiling to flee from the raptors, the raptors at one point have "squares" of light shining on them. If you look closely at this light, these "squares" of light are not really squares, but the letters A T C G, the DNA sequence abbreviations.

Questions

Question: Where do the staff and crew of Jurassic Park go after the dinosaurs escape? I mean you see a staff member tending to the triceratops, there were many scientists in the dinosaur lab, and would assume that there would be many more people on the island but they are nowhere to be seen after the dinosaurs escape.

Chosen answer: They all left on the same boat Nedry was trying to get on with the embryos. You can hear Samuel L Jackson's character announce that the boat will be leaving at a specific time and everyone had to be there or be left behind.
