When an explosion rips through the vessel, the crew become shipwrecked deep inside the Arctic Circle—sabotaged by one of their own. Now, they must trek across the treacherous sea ice to reach dry land before the ice retreats—all the while with a traitor in their midst and fearsome predators stalking their every move.

Welcome to the Juras-Sick Park-Cast podcast, the Jurassic Park podcast about Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park, and also not about that, too.  Find the episode webpage at: Episode 72 - Isla Nublar. In this episode (stream it here!), my terrific guest Dr. Hannah McGregor joins the show to chat with me about: the Stanley Park raccoons, tales about animals out in the wild, the book Clever Girl, podcasts, feminism in Jurassic Park (Spielberg, 1993), the Pop Classics Series by ECW Press, cracking open popular films for cultural analysis, her favourite dinosaur, the Canadian Museum of Nature, Tyrannosaurus lips, Man v.

Moose/Skunk, Crichton's shortfalls, unpacking the inextricable themes of Jurassic Park, Spielberg's retelling of John Landis's failures while filming the Twighlight Zone (1983), Pandora's Box, patriarchal cultures, the site of conflict between control and chaos, de-colonization as a New World Order, viewing Hammond as specifically coded as a colonizer/Colonialist, drawing some connections between Hammond and Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard's character in Jurassic World), putting Harry Potter into Critical Theory in podcast form: Witch, Please and the current-running Material Girls podcast, and much more! Find her new book, Clever Girl A smart and incisive exploration of everyone’s favorite dinosaur movie and the female dinosaurs who embody what it means to be angry, monstrous, and free. The Jurassic Park series is one of the most famous and profitable movie franchises of all time — an entire generation of people has never known life without these CGI dinosaurs. The movie spectacle broke film and merchandising records, pioneered special effects, and made Jeff Goldblum into an unlikely sex symbol, and now it has also been re-envisioned as a classic of queer feminist storytelling. In Clever Girl, Hannah McGregor argues that the female-only dinosaurs of Jurassic Park are stand-ins for monstrous women, engineered by men to be intelligent, violent, and adaptive, and whose chaos resists the systems designed to control them. As they run wild through their prison, a profit-driven theme park, they destroy the men and structures who mistakenly believed in their own colonialist and capitalist power, showing the audience what it means to be angry, monstrous, and free. The velociraptors were not just jump scares for children but also revelatory and predatory symbols of feminist rage. Clever girls, indeed.

The Text: This week’s text is Almost Paradigm, spanning from pages 380 – 384. Synopsis: Hammond is uncomfortable with Malcolm’s sepsis, and leaves for a walk believing that the park is under control now, and is safe. On his walk back to his bungalow, he stews over how unfit everyone he’d hired to work at Jurassic Park had been, blaming them all for its downfall – and taking no responsibility of his own. Then he hears the roar of the juvenile tyrannosaurus, and panics. Out of fear and anger, he winds up falling down a ravine, landing in a river below, with a broken ankle. It turns out the tyrannosaur roar is just a recording being broadcast over loud speakers, as Tim and Lex are playing around on the computer in the control room, and there was no danger after all.  Discussions surround: Dramatic Irony, Responsibility and Safety, Considering whether or not you should, and Almost Paradise v. Almost Paradigm. Corrections: I said that Nedry didn't turn off the fences in the movie - when, of course he did. Arnold also turns off the power, but Nedry did it first. My mistake.
