From what I heard the book had a lot more deep science and chaos theory, but I never read it. If true, nobody's taking their kids to that.
I read it 3 times. When I was like 12. Chaos theory and science were certainly aspects; aspects of an exciting, edge of your seat, smart, well-plotted thriller, with engaging and relatable characters. It wasn’t a kids book, and doesn’t need to be a kids movie. This may shock you, but movies don’t have to be for kids in order to be successful.
I'm not shocked, because I never claimed this point at all, but I appreciate your attempt at insulting me for no reason.
The formula that is Jurassic Park is complicated and has many variables. I'm sure the movie you would have preferred to get would have been great, but it wouldn't be the universally recognized franchise it is today.
