Episode 115: The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) with Joe Wood

from Screens of the Stone Age · host Josh Lindal, Dr. Kimberly Plomp, and Dr. Ross Barnett

We’ve dug too far! We overshot the Stone Age and hit the Dinosaur Age again! Today we’re joined by palaeontologist Joe Wood to review The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997), the second movie in the Jurassic franchise (and the last good one). We talk about lumpers, splitters, slappers, clappers, and everything you ever wanted to know about our fine feathered friends.
