Jurassic World, a film about a theme park experiment gone wrong, brings dinosaurs back bigger and better than before. It was released in June of 2015, directed by Colin Trevorrow, the movie made 1.67 billion dollars in box office sales. The movie is an action packed science fiction/thriller that keeps the audience glued to the screen. Jurassic World is an iconic movie that brings back the theme from the original movie which shows the human power struggle against nature. The movie makes very many parallels to the original films, and the film makes use of modern day technology to present certain issue throughout the film.

The same power struggle is present in both films, but there are more parallels than that. A major point of Jurassic Park is that life is controlled by the chaos theory, that nothing can ever be consistent. In Jurassic Park, a character names Ian Malcolm, drops two drops of water on another character’s hand and it shows that two drops will never go the same way. In Jurassic World blood drops from the Indominus Rex and lands on a soldier’s hand (Jurassic World).

The continuing pressure from corporations ended up creating a problem because the dinosaurs that were modified inherited many unpredictable behaviors. Back when the original film was released pressure from corporations were never the issue. It was actually the opposite; Jurassic Park was trying to promote itself by wanting corporations to give approval. Another modern issue that Jurassic World touches is the pressure to always outdo the last show. Just like modern-day smart phone
