The Jurassic Park joke that only the Spanish understood

The Jurassic Park joke that only the Spanish understood


30 years after its release, we continue to notice references and small curiosities in Steven Spielberg’s classic.

After the release of Jurassic Parkthe team quickly began creating new sequels, series, and projects based on the dinosaurs of Nublar Island. Among the first ideas, it was presented Escape from Jurassic Park, a 23-episode animated series about John Hammond’s attempts to open the park on time, as well as the side project of his rival company, which wants to open a theme park in Brazil. An illusion that actually led to nothing.



It would have been the most expensive cartoon series in history up to that point, which would have continued the saga, with a serious plot aimed at an adult audience. But at that moment bad luck took over: Spielberg was completely fed up with the promotion and merchandising of the film and didn’t even see the promotional trailer that they had let him approve. The project was shelved and nothing more was heard of it. Escape from Jurassic Park.

And no wonder: the director put a lot of effort into this film, taking care of even the smallest details. For example, this scene where one of the characters speaks in Spanish and only the Spanish-speaking audience understood him because he deliberately decided not to use subtitles. When Gennaro approaches the excavation, Juanito Rostagno says: “I bet a thousand pesos that it will fall”. Shortly afterwards the investor trips and falls.
