Jurassic Park (franchise)
The Jurassic Park franchise is a series of
books, films, comics, and videos
centering on a disastrous attempt to create a theme park of cloned dinosaurs.
It began in 1990 when Universal Studios bought the rights to the novel by Michael Crichton before it was even published.
The book was successful, as was the 1993 film adaptation which led to two sequels, although the last was not based on a novel, as the previous films were. The software developers Ocean Software, BlueSky Software, Sega of America and Telltale Games have had the rights to developing video games since the 1993 film, and numerous games have been produced.
Currently a fourth feature film is in the works, but it has been lingering in "development hell" since a year after the third film. There have been numerous rumors about the project since it was first reported, many of them relating to plot, script ideas and new logos.
The Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy was released on Blu-ray and DVD on October 25, 2011 in North
America.Jurassic Park film series
Michael Crichton originally conceived a
screenplay around a pterosaur being cloned from fossil DNA. After
wrestling with this idea for a while, he came up with Jurassic Park.[1]
Steven Spielberg learned of the novel in October 1989
while he and Crichton were discussing a screenplay that would become the
TV series ER. Before the book was published,
Crichton put up a non-negotiable fee for $1.5 million as well as a
substantial percentage of the gross. Warner
Bros. and Tim Burton, Sony Columbia Pictures and Richard Donner, and 20th Century Fox and Joe
Dante also bid for the rights,[2]
Universal further paid Crichton $500,000 to adapt his own novel,[3]
but in May 1990, Universal eventually decided on Spielberg making the
adaption.[2]
Universal desperately needed money to keep their company alive, and
partially succeeded with Jurassic Park, as it became a critical[4]
and commercial[5]
success.
After Jurassic Park was released to home video, Crichton was pressured from many sources for a sequel novel. Crichton declined all offers until Spielberg himself told him that he would be keen to direct a movie adaptation of the sequel, if one were written. Crichton began work almost immediately. After the novel was published in 1995, The Lost World: Jurassic Park began production in September 1996.[6]
Before the production of the second film, Joe Johnston approached Steven Spielberg about directing the project. While Spielberg wanted to direct the first sequel, he agreed that if there was ever a third film, Johnston could direct.[7] Production began on August 30, 2000.[8]
