Kvikk Lunsj Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Jurassic Park without a question. Jurassic Park brought CGI to the mainstream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Jurassic park is one of the greatest sci-fi family films of all tine. It's truly magical and will live on for generations. Avatar ain't got nothing on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vc2002 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) JP is one of my fav Spielberg films ever, but Avatar wins easily. It just stands on a whole new level above that. Edited October 5, 2012 by vc2002 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I liked Avatar, but I'm having a hard time remembering any real iconic moments from that film. Jurassic Park is filled with them, the water moving, Nedry's demise, the first shot of the Brontosaurus, the whole sequence of the getting the power back on, the kitchen scene. JP wins this.

CoolioD1 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Yeah, this ain't difficult. I actually quite like Avatar, but it's not half as good as Jurassic Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Don't make me choose! I love them both! I'll go by cash spent:JP: Bd Boxset : £25 + free ticket to rereleaseAvatar: BD standard £15+ Collectors BD £90 + 11 3D shows £60....I think Avatar wins.

fishstick Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Avatar. JP effects are iconic but characters were awful and kids so freakin annoying I wished Rex ate them. I was bored by that movie to be honest. It`s a classic but, yeah, kids really grated and I`ve never been a fan of R Kelly Goldblum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toymaker Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 In terms of effects, which I believe is the real question here, then it has to be Avatar. Anybody saying anything different would be stupid. It has a 16 year advantage sure, but they are much better than Jurassic Park's. If you're just asking which of these visual effects blockbusters is better, then Jurassic Park wins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
