My son was 8 when we sat down to watch the first Jurassic Park movie. He was shaking at the end. I learned a great lesson that day.

    The t-rex sounds didn't terrify you? When that big boy starts screaming, I think that's when my boy got traumatized.

    Now (mid-20s), he says he doesn't remember this, so big thanks for short term memory loss.

    Hahaa yeah those effects were some crazy shit for a kid, especially back then. I think the dinosaur obsession kept me more in awe than in aaahhh there XD

    But I was no match for Spielberg’s cinematography in that opener. “Shoot her…!!” got me more than any of the roars
