Why I think The Lost World is better than Jurassic Park

Update on March 1st, 2016: I have since changed my opinion, and would like to state my official opinion is that Jurassic Park is better than The Lost World, but that I still enjoy them the same. However I will leave the topic as it is for those still interested in reading and discussing.

Okay I have briefly said it before but this time I wanted to make a full topic adressing this. I generally enjoy The Lost World: Jurassic Park more than it's predecesor, Jurassic Park.

Now I have seen extremely few people who agree with me on this. Only people I've seen agree with me so far is Sci-FiKing-25 and some random reviewer on Rotten Tomatoes. (It's a popular review site for those of you who don't know.)

Well anyway- why do I enjoy The Lost World more? I am going to list some of the many reasons below, I hope mayeb some of you might agree with me!

1- The Lost World had a darker atmosphere

One of the reasons I enjoyed the Lost World more is the fact that it had a much darker atmosphere. As most everyone knows Jurassic Park was adapted so kids could enjoy the film as well. (If it showed the deaths more it would easily have been R-rated rather than PG-13). The film is not soley for kids, it was just made for the whole family to watch.

And they did well on that, when I watched it as a kid I wasn't at all scared of it along with everyone else I know.

Then there is The Lost World... One of the reasons I enjoyed it more is that it didn't necessarily fully leave the more "gentle" atmosphere Jurassic Park had, this time, it was much darker and straightforward. As a kid some parts spooked me out.

I also liked how we got to see the dirty little secrets behind Jurassic Park. Sure it didn't go into the direction the book did but it was still cool to see the dark secrets of InGen.

2- Had characters I liked more

In the Lost World there were much more characters that I enjoyed more than the first one. First off Ian Malcolm is now the star of the show, which made me happy since he is my favorite character. Then there is Sarah Harding, and she is a very good character and actor. The character she played was awesome! We also got Nick, which I liked. Then we have a new Safari Hunter in place fo Muldoon, whose name was Roland Tembo. And although he was the villain, I liked the acting of Peter Ludlow. (The ACTING, not the character.)

3- Cooler and Nastier Dinosaur Deaths

I thought the death scenes in The Lost World were far more btter and captivating than the first film. I mean come on, an angry Mommy and Daddy T-Rex attacking the trailer because they want their little child! A rampage of compies brutally killing a pshycopath(Ouch)! Raptors storlling through tall grass killing everyone standing in And Then There Were None style! And then angry Daddy Rex going apeshit all over San Diego!!! Also the scene where

Do you get my point, people!!!???

Well anyway those are the main reasons of why I enjoy The Lost World over Jurassic Park.

Please do leave a reply! I love to hear your thoughts whether it be to agree or to disagree! But please let's do this in a clam manner; this is just a discussion over which movie you think is better. This is just my opinion.
