I went with friends to the original Jurassic Park at an okay but not exactly fabulous movie theeder in Torrance, CA. It was fine then, but it didn't convert me to being a dinosaur fanatic like it did the rest of the civilized world. Never went to the second, but I did see the weird third movie on a double feature at a (wait for it ----------> ) drive-in theeder.
I do, however, live with a REAL dinosaur fanatic - Kristi, especially - who has seen every such movie multiple times. I've seen a few of the later ones with her and Nathan at home, but for me it's background, I'm not really paying attention, I'm just along for the ride. I don't mind that now and then, and I can always retreat to my own Movie Room. But I do think they're as silly as all the other "today" franchises.
