Episode Notes
From the Episode
Join Martin, Adam, Luke, and David on the Four Takes Movie Podcast as they travel back to 1993 (and 65 million years ago) to discuss Steven Spielberg’s masterpiece, Jurassic Park. In this episode, the guys spare no expen
se in breaking down the classic, covering everything from the terrifying kitchen scene to the questionable 90s fashion. You’ll hear the tragic tale of a young Martin abandoning his chatting parents in a Great Yarmouth cinema to watch the movie in peace, and join the crew as they investigate why Richard Attenborough’s Scottish accent disappears, reappears for monologues, and drifts into London territory depending on his ice cream consumption.
The team also uncovers Dennis Nedry’s secret wardrobe choices, revealing that the computer hacker is wearing the exact same outfits as the cast of The Goonies in every scene. They marvel at Lex’s ability to hack a Unix system while holding a computer mouse like a giant joint of ham—a technique dubbed the "meat fist"—and take a fond look back at the cinematic history of getting eaten while hiding in a bathroom. Finally, the crew catches up on what they've been bingeing (from Fallout to Marty Supreme) before firing up the DeLorean for next week's discussion on Back to the Future.
