Episode 6 - The Parenting Metaphor (The Lost World)

On episode 6 of See Jurassic Right, your host Steven Ray Morris, along with editor Annie Wilkes and photographer Megan Baker (featuring a tale by poet Jess Unkel), give a close reading of The Lost World: Jurassic Park. We talk about the film's structure as an homage to its pulpy roots, the many ways its obsessed with family, why Spielberg plays with our dinosaur sympathies, and how the sequel achieves a complex equilibrium on par with the original (aka keepin' the dream alive).

This month's questions are:

1. Are John Hammond’s Jurassic Park dinosaurs more monster than animal?

2. Do you consider The Lost World part of a trilogy?
