Except those weren't Spielberg characters, they were
Chrichton characters.  And in the original book they were interesting,
reasonable individuals.  I guess it's hard to seperate some of the two,
while they didn't live up to what the book JP (which I enjoyed) had them
as, it's like a reference to a character you know there is more to.

tLW, however, was pretty lame, I'll grant you that.  But I place JP
far above Godzilla.  If for nothing else, the rendering stuff they
were doing was new then.  Now it's old, bordering on cliched...
