I can remember seeing the first Jurassic Park film 20 years ago. It was really the first time I saw a film that I had previously[先前地] read the novel first. I loved Michael Crichton’s注1 book. The film, however, captured[捕獲;吸引] my imagination in a way I wasn’t expecting. The way it was shot[拍電影], the special effects[特效] mixed with practical effects and the music made me believe this park could be real. The suspense[懸念], the acting, the humor, the drama, all of it made for a great film that’s stuck[無法擺脫的] with me ever since.
Here we are now about to embark on[開始] a new Jurassic adventure. All claims made by the producers and director and actors say this will capture that same feeling as the first film. Taking over in the director’s chair is Colin Trevorrow with Steven Spielberg as the producer. Taking charge with the score[配樂] (masterfully done previously by John Williams) is Michael Giacchino (Lost, Star Trek), so I feel like the music is in good hands as well. I’m also hopeful about this cast which is headlined by Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard.
I’m really excited to see where they take the franchise[電影系列] forward. I wasn’t happy with Jurassic Park 3, and Lost World was okay but not great. Little is known about the plot aside from Isla[島嶼] Nublar being a fully functioning[運轉] theme park called“Jurassic World,” which is shaped in the image of John Hammond’s注2 dream. A new company owns the park, Patel Corporation. Pratt’s character is a member of the staff, conducting[組織并實施] behavioral[行為的] research on velociraptors[迅猛龍].
Watching the original[原作的] Jurassic Park takes me back to that first time of seeing it and how great it was to see this film. Hearing the sounds of the T-Rex[霸王龍] and the Raptors注3 for the first time, the amazement in the eyes of the characters as they saw their first dinosaur. I’m really hoping they capture that feeling again in this new film.

我還記得20年前觀看第一部《侏羅紀公園》的情形。看過原著小說再去看電影,對我來說還是頭一遭。我很喜歡邁克爾·克萊頓的書,然而電影版卻以一種始料不及的方式激發了我的想象力。它的拍攝方式、融合實景效果的特效,以及電影配樂,讓我覺得這個公園有可能是真的。懸念、(演員的)表演、幽默以及戲劇性場面,都讓我對這部優秀電影念念不忘。
現在,我們即將踏上侏羅紀公園的新旅程。制片人、導演和演員都宣稱這部新作將會給觀眾帶來和第一部作品一樣的感覺。接過導演重任的是科林·特雷沃羅,史蒂文·斯皮爾伯格則是制片人。負責電影配樂(之前出色的配樂由約翰·威廉姆斯完成)的是邁克·吉亞奇諾(《迷失》、《星際迷航》),所以我覺得音樂落在了可靠的人手里。我對由克里斯·帕拉特和布萊絲·達拉斯·霍華德領頭的演員陣容同樣滿懷希望。
我迫不及待地想知道,在他們的帶領下這個電影系列將是怎樣的。我對《侏羅紀公園3》不太滿意,《失落的世界》還可以,但算不上一流。現時我對劇情的了解不多,只知道努布拉島是按照約翰·哈蒙德的構想建造而成的一個功能齊全的主題公園,名叫“侏羅紀世界”。公園現在歸新公司帕特爾企業所有。帕拉特的角色是園內的員工,負責研究迅猛龍的行為。
觀看第一部《侏羅紀公園》讓我回想起第一次看它的感覺,還有那部電影帶來的一流觀感—第一次聽見霸王龍和迅猛龍的叫聲,電影角色們看到第一只恐龍時驚訝的眼神—我真希望他們可以在這部新電影里制造出同樣的效果。……
