I've got no idea if this is going to happen in the US since Empire is reporting it but on September 23rd in the UK  JP will be getting a re-release in the cinema with a shiny new digital print.

As the movie that made me love movies this makes me very happy.

I would love to see this movie again on the big screen since I think I am at a point in my life where I doubt the Velociraptor will give me nightmares.

Hold onto your butts that is some damn good news. Here's hoping it comes stateside. 
 
I'm wish there was a second set of movie theatres that just replayed old classics, or at least have the community vote on the screenings.

As someone who was about 3 when that movie came out, and have only seen it on VHS, I would LOVE to see it on the big screen! Though not enough to go to another country.

I was speaking to the British Film Institute this morning in the hopes of them having a screening at the cinema in London.  They told me that although they weren't planning on showing it at the institute they were seeing if scheduling would permit them to show it at IMAX. 
 
If that happens I will cry tears of manly joy.

Seeing Muldoon saying the immortal lines "Clever Girl" on the big screen I think will reduce me to tears of joy. 
 
Also people getting eaten by dinosaurs instant movie ticket purchase.

I saw it in the IMAX on Friday, it's glorious.

The CGI holds up amazingly well but the animatronic dinosaurs look a little obvious now.

Still amazing film, one of my own personal besties that's for damn sure.

I really hope they do this for the US as a wide release because I would totally go to see it in theaters considering I was born like a year after it was released.

I was with somebody who was born the week after Jurassic Park originally came out at the cinema. I felt so old and I'm only 27!

My little sister was in utero when I saw it! It's amazing the memories!
