Jurassic Park

We have been watching the movie Jurassic Park in class and I think it is pretty awesome beacause I used to love the movie! When I was little I am pretty sure that I wanted to be a dinosaur so this movie was right up my alley. Anyways, after not seeing this movie for awhile I found it very interesting. There are a lot of science that even applies to issues that we are still dealing with today. It became clear to me that the movie and book were both ahead of their times. Topics such as cloning and genetic engineering apply to a lot of moral issues in today's society. Morality is another issue that caught my eye when I saw the film more recently. Whats right and what is wrong can be discussed through out the whole movie. Are we supposed to play God and recreate a spieces simply because we can? As Jeff Goldbulm's character said in the movie "... scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should".
